7. Park Ordinance Amendments: Alison Jumper, Park Planning Superintendent
The Park Ordinance Chapter 97 had several areas that needed to be updated. These
amendments must be approved by City Council. Plans are to present it at the October 20th
City Council Meeting.
A change was made to Ordinance 97.15 Operating Hours to clarify that Shared Use Paved
Trails would be open 24 hours every day instead of closing at the time city parks close at
11:00 p.m. The Shared Use Paved Trails will be designated on the Parks and Trails
Interactive Map on our City's website. The GIS map would show the trails that are open 24
hours per day in a specific color and all other trails closing at 11:00 pm in another color.
Trails located within city parks and short distant trails would close at 11:00 p.m. These
trails would be added to the map to be open 24 hours per day in the future as they are
further developed and linked into the overall trail system. Trails that would be open until
11:00 p.m. include Wilson Park, Gulley Park, Davis Park, Walker Park trail surrounding the
Sr. Adult Center, Holland Park, Raven Trail, Gulley Park's trail on Azalea Terrace, Clabber
Creek Trail, and Hamstring Creek Trail. All nature trails are open daylight until 11 pm.
Chapter 97.85 — Vending and Peddling was modified to accommodate sponsors of the
Gulley Park Concerts, as well as Special Event offered by the Parks and Recreation

RE: Park Dedication for the Deane Street Cottage
1335 W. Deane Street
Fayetteville, Arkansas
Ms. Jumper,
We are proposing to split Parcel number 765-13564-000 into ten (10) tracts for a
Cottage Development. A preliminary plat will be submitted to the City in order to split
the property. This property contains approximately 1.40 acres. This parcel currently
contains a residential home that will be removed.
Based on the size of the property, dedication of land within the development for a city
park does not appear to be appropriate. Therefore, we request payment of money in
lieu of park land dedication for this project.
Please let me know if you have any questions or need any further information regarding
this development.
Thank you,

DONOR RECOGNITION SIGNS
PURPOSE
The purpose of this directive is to provide policies which will govern the naming of park facilities currently
owned or acquired by the City of Fayetteville. This policy statement takes precedence over any previous
policies and guidelines which may have governed the naming of these facilities.
POLICY
In order to provide important capital facilities in Fayetteville Parks, it is pragmatic in a time of shrinking public
dollars to seek outside funding. It is essential to have specific boundaries and criteria in establishing fair and
proper recognition of significant facility donations. This policy sets guidelines for donations within parks as
well as on trails. All sign and plaque designs must be incorporated into the design of the facility. Donor
recognition signs shall adhere to the aesthetic values and design of the park.
Donor recognition in parks is based upon the type of facility donated. Donor recognition on trails is limited on
the trailheads unless there is an educational and/or art feature that is appropriate to be displayed along the
trail. Recognition signs may not be predominant within the educational and/or art component.
Recognition for each donation will be determined pursuant to the Recognition for Parks and Trails Facilities
Policy. Any exceptions to this policy must be approved by City Council. Park Planners have the latitude to
design signs recognizing donations based on site location and donor specific criteria. Naming of facilities
donated must meet the Naming Park Facilities Operational Policy unless accepted under City Council
resolution. The naming proposal will be presented to the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board for their
recommendation to City Council. City Council has final approval of the park facility name, including the right
to approve a different name. The option for naming facilities is only permitted under the Park Facility
Diamond, Platinum, Gold and Silver categories. Minor items such as trash receptacles and flower beds
cannot be named.

NAMING PARK FACILITIES
PURPOSE
The purpose of this directive is to provide policies which will govern the naming of park facilities currently
owned or acquired by the City of Fayetteville. This policy statement takes precedence over any previous
policies and guidelines which may have governed the naming of these facilities.
POLICY
Upon acquisition of a new park, the Director of Parks and Recreation will assign a nondescript temporary
working name or subdivision name for the park facility to be used until park development begins.
Once park development begins, the Parks and Recreation Department will receive and forward park facility
name suggestions to the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board for review. The Parks and Recreation
Advisory Board will discuss and approve the recommendations at their monthly meeting. Once a
recommended name has been selected, the Parks and Recreation staff will forward the name to the City
Council for its final park name selection including a potentially different name.
The following items should be considered when proposing names for any park facilities:
• Geographic location of the facility
• Outstanding features of the facility
• Commonly recognized historical event, group, or individual
• Individual or group who contributed significantly to the acquisition or development of a facility
• Individual who provided an exceptional service in the interest of the park system
For an individual to be considered, the recommended name must be accompanied by a biographical sketch
which provides evidence of historical significance or contributions to the Parks and Recreation Department
or City of Fayetteville.
The naming of plaques, markers, and memorials within park facilities must follow the policies as stated
above.
Note: A name recommendation from the Active Transportation Committee for trail facilities will be required
prior to forwarding to the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board.
