MORGAN -- Residents near a new Mountain Green park are asking if the county is willing to sell the property to their homeowners' association.

"From the beginning of the park, some felt it was a mistake," said Karen Sunday, chairwoman of the county park advisory board. "The smallness of the park, isolation. It should have never been taken on as a park."

(ANTHONY SOUFFLE/Standard-Examiner) Floodwaters from the Weber River surge onto Serge Simmons Field, the former home of the Ogden Raptors, knocking down the fencing and eroding the riverbank Friday. The bicycle path on the park’s east side has also been destroyed. Because the baseball field is still in bad shape, tournaments and city recreation teams have had to find other parks in Ogden on which to play. Officials say they don’t know if the park will be restored next year because of the cost and ramifications of government regulations regarding the alteration of the river’s flow.

Guidelines changed for city park usage

Standard-Examiner correspondent

Last updated Wednesday, May 18, 2011 - 5:51pm

The city council has OK’d a change in the guidelines for usage of a city park or bowery that has been reserved for use by a specific party.

In action taken recently, the council voted to make it a Class C misdemeanor to enter or remain upon parks, boweries or other park areas, which have been reserved and that person was been informed by a city employee or the party holding the reservation that the park had been reserved for exclusive use of those with a reservation and their invitees,

As part of the same action, the council also voted to amend a portion of the criminal code, making it a Class B misdemeanor to enter a motor vehicle without the permission of the owner of that vehicle.
