Item # 2.

Council Meeting

Meeting Date:	02/09/2021
Department:	Parks & Recreation
Pillars:	Gold Standard in Public Safety

AGENDA CAPTION:

Present and Discuss Public Nuisance Concerns Along the White Rock Creek Park Trail.

BACKGROUND:

On July 14, 2020, Staff made a presentation to Council, at the request of Council Members Paul Walden and Marlin Willesen, regarding public nuisance concerns along White Rock Creek Park Trail. These concerns include resident observations of homeless persons utilizing the area under the Belt Line Road bridge. The area under Belt Line Road is within the Dallas city limits which precludes the Town's enforcement of Addison's public nuisance ordinances in that location.

Staff's presentation to Council provided an overview of the issues and potential options to address concerns along the White Rock Creek Park Trail. Following the presentation, Council requested Staff identify costs associated with Option 1 which included increasing visibility, lighting and adding a security camera. Staff was also directed to look into the potential for construction of a concrete rip rap deterrent. Staff will present this information to Council.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff seeks direction from Council.
