1. If vehicles are prohibited on park trails, why do I see Parks trucks on trails?

The use of motorized vehicles by the Parks Department is the best way to access the trails for trail repairs, litter removal and emergency needs. Park Rangers periodically patrol trails by trucks throughout the year when bicycle access is not feasible.

2. Why are park restrooms closed in the fall?

Park restrooms are not heated and subject to freezing and damage during the late fall/winter periods. Restrooms are closed and winterized during the last week of October and opened around May 1.

3. I have a complaint/question about the condition of a cemetery lot. Who can I speak with?

Please contact the Public Services Department at 269-329-4444 to report your concern. Staff will investigate the matter and take the appropriate action.

4. Why aren’t bicycles allowed in the South Westnedge Skatepark?

The Skatepark was developed solely for use by skateboarders. Bicycles have a greater potential to damage the Skatepark facility and for safety purposes would need to be separated from skateboard activity. As the city does not have the resources to manage separate uses, bicycles are prohibited within the South Westnedge Skatepark.
