CITY OF KENT GOVERNMENT: Mayor Ralph Modifies Park Closures

Webp park 12

City of Kent Government issued the following announcement on April 25.

"Effective immediately, we have re-opened the trails within the Kent Parks, Recreation & Community Services system. Now, I want to be really clear about this – playground equipment, bathrooms and gathering spots are still CLOSED. However, if you can socially distance and want to take a walk on one of our fabulous Kent trails – you can do so effective immediately. Again, if you can safely socially distance you may walk or run in our parks and trails. However, if we see folks not observing those rules, using playground equipment or gathering in groups we will be forced to shut down trails along with the parks. Violating these rules can lead to stiff consequences under the Governor’s order and we don’t want to get to that point. Please be a good neighbor and respect the rules so we can eliminate COVID19 and get back to enjoying our lives in our new normal," - Mayor Dana Ralph
