Parks and Recreation Manager Jennifer Boardman stated that this was the second reading of an ordinance to designate certain areas in city parks that
would prohibit dogs, nudity and smoking. These areas are specific to the play equipment areas, memorials, and the spray park.
Council Member Ellie George did not feel it proper to punish all dogs because of a few irresponsible dog owners in regards to the spray park. Ms. Boardman
explained that this is a tool for the Police Department to help enforce common
sense rules. When owners have pets in the spray park area that may be affecting the enjoyment of others the officers will have the tools to remove the problem.
There have been times in the past when the spray park has been closed
because dogs have defecated in it.
Allen Brodrick made a motion to approve Ordinance No. 1958, An Ordinance Amending Subsections 9.68.170 and 9.68.220 and Adding Subsections 9.68.230 and 9.68.240 of the Central Point Municipal Code to

Ms. Boardman stated that this is the second reading of an ordinance to provide a
comprehensive set of rules allowing for more effective policing and management of the city skate park. The revisions allow for the removal of the fence and
acceptance of alternate modes of recreation vehicles including bikes and non
motorized scooters. The new rules allow the Police Department to help maintain order within the skate park. The City Attorney made some formatting changes to
the document. No other changes were recommended at the first reading.

Bids for this project were opened on April 10th, 2012. Seven bids were received
with the low bid coming from Pilot Rock Excavation in the amount of $89,105.

Hurley sent a letter of resignation stating that his current schedule was conflicting
with his ability to do a good job on the Planning Commission leaving Position No. 7 vacant. Staff is recommending filling this vacancy with the second applicant
Craig Nelson.

XI. DEPARTMENT REPORTS
Assistant City Manager Chris Clayton reported that:
• The Mayor has received a letter from the Chairman from the Historic
Cemetery Commission. He is asking if the City is looking into taking over
the maintenance of the Cemetery. The current owners have received the money for the restoration from last year’s vandalism but have not done
all the restoration. The City should not get involved until the restorations have been completed. We are still in contact with the property owners trying to get more information on the maintenance and records. We are
waiting for this issue to be resolved before we move forward.
• Coming to the Council next month will be an IGA with the Medford Water
Commission in regards to a conservation study grant.

changes and Mrs. Robson will be asking for an Executive Session in regards to the Collective Bargaining Agreement.

that the next Chief knows exactly what they are taking control of. This includes
guns, bullets and paperwork.

STAFF REPORT
To: The Honorable Mayor and City Council From: Jon D. Zeliff, Chief of Police
SUBJECT: PEACE OFFICERS MEMORIAL DAY
AND NATIONAL POLICE WEEK 2012
Date: May 10th, 2012
Summary:
Each year, between 140 and 160 Police Officers are killed in the line of duty in the United
States. Thousands more are injured, and many are often left permanently disabled.
In 1962, President John F. Kennedy signed a proclamation which designated May 15th as
Peace Officers Memorial Day and the week in which that date falls, as National Police Week.
This proclamation sets aside a day “in honor of those law enforcement officers who,
through their courageous deeds, have made the ultimate sacrifice in service to their
community or have become disabled in the performance of their duty.”
Peace Officers Memorial Day is part of National Police Week, a time to “reflect upon the
sacrifices our fellow citizens make to serve their communities and recognize the service of those who hold the public trust,” by honoring their fallen comrades across the nation.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the City Council approve a proclamation designating Tuesday,
May 15th, 2012 as Peace Officers Memorial Day and Sunday, May 13th through Saturday, May 19th 2012 as National Police Week in the City of Central Point.

WHEREAS, in 1962 President Kennedy proclaimed May 15th as Peace Officers’ Me-
morial Day, and the week in which May 15th falls as National Police Week; and
WHEREAS, the members of the Central Point Police Department play an essential role
in safeguarding the rights and freedoms of the citizens of Central Point; and
WHEREAS, it is important that all citizens know and understand the problems, duties,
responsibilities, hazards, and sacrifices of their police department, and that members of
our police department recognize their duty to serve the people by safeguarding life and
property, by protecting them against violence and disorder, and by protecting the inno-
cent against deception and the weak against oppression or intimidation; and
WHEREAS, the City of Central Point Police Department is a principled, modern and
scientific law enforcement agency which unceasingly provides a vital public service;
NOW, THEREFORE, I, HANK WILLIAMS, MAYOR OF THE CITY OF CEN-
TRAL POINT, OREGON call upon all citizens of Central Point and upon all patriotic,
civic and educational organizations to observe the week of May 13th through 19th, 2012,
as NATIONAL POLICE WEEK with appropriate ceremonies and observances in which
all of our people may join in commemorating law enforcement officers, past and pre-
sent, who, by their faithful and loyal devotion to their responsibilities, have rendered a
dedicated service to their communities and, in doing so, have established for themselves
an enviable and enduring reputation for preserving the rights and security of all citizens.
I FURTHER call upon all citizens of the City of Central Point to observe Tuesday,
May 15th, 2012, as PEACE OFFICERS’ MEMORIAL DAY in honor of those valiant
peace officers who, through their courageous deeds, have made the ultimate sacrifice
and lost their lives or have become disabled in the performance of their solemn duty.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I hereby set my hand this _________, day of
__________________, 2012.

PLANNING DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM
Date: May 10, 2012
To: Honorable Mayor & Central Point City Council
From: Tom Humphrey AICP, Community Development Director
Subject: Planning Commission Report
The following items were presented by staff and discussed by the Planning Commission at a
regularly scheduled meeting on May 1, 2012.
A. Consideration of Comprehensive Plan (map) and Municipal Code Zoning (map) Amendments from C-N, Neighborhood Commercial to M-1, Light Industrial on
Table Rock Road - File No. 12011. The Amendment was initiated by the City
Council to make land use and zoning along Table Rock Road more consistent with Jackson County and City of Medford designations and to create incentive for new businesses to annex and/or relocate to Central Point. The Planning Commission
conducted a public hearing and fielded questions by a property owner who still
maintains a home in the affected area. The legal non-conforming status of their home
would not change with the proposed amendment. The proposal in general is supported by state and local agencies and there were no adverse impacts identified by them or by other property owners in the area. The Commission recommended approval of the
Amendment to the City Council.
