(a) Powers of the director. The control, supervision, and operations of all parks is vested in the director of parks and recreation. The director or his or her deputy may make such reasonable rules and regulations as are necessary to manage, control, supervise, operate, use, preserve and govern park property and activities, and may designate hours of operation and opening and closing times of the various parks which may be different as to individual parks.
(b) Closed Areas. Any section or part of any park or parks and recreation department facility may be declared closed to the public by the director at any time and for any interval of time, either temporarily or at regular and stated intervals (daily or otherwise), and either entirely or merely to certain uses, as the director shall find in the public health, safety or welfare, or for proper operation of the park or facility.
(c) Fees. The use of certain park facilities and services requires payment of fees by the user(s). Except as otherwise provided in this chapter, fees for the use of park facilities and services, including but not limited to fees and rates for the use of the city's golf courses, shall be in the amounts as established in fee schedules approved by the mayor and council. The fee schedules approved by the mayor and council will be maintained by the city clerk and the director of parks and recreation for public view and inspection.
