Council prioritizes Rohmer Park crosswalk repainting and school-safety follow-up

Council Member Michael Thomas asked when striping and crosswalk repainting at Rohmer Park will be scheduled; City Manager Tom Hanson said repainting is a high priority for him and the Public Works Director.

Hanson also said he would contact Weber School District to inquire whether a school gate could be left open longer for student safety after some children were observed climbing the fence to reach school on 5000 South. Council Member Jeff West relayed resident requests to extend crossing-guard hours or add another crossing guard. Council Member Cheryl Parkinson recommended sending information home with parents to remind children to leave on time.

No formal action was taken; Hanson said he will reach out to district contacts and that repainting and public-works attention to the park are priorities.
