Village of Sherwood Parks are dedicated to providing leisure
services, recreational facilities and environmental management to
enhance the quality of life for the community, as administered by
the PRUT Board (hereafter referred to as "PRUT Board"). In order to
protect the parks, parkways, recreational facilities and conservancy
areas within the Village from injury, damage or desecration, these
regulations are enacted. The term "park," as hereinafter used in this
article, shall include all grounds, structures and watercourses which
are or may be located within any area dedicated to the public use
as a park, parkway, recreation facility or conservancy district in
the Village.
Permits are required for groups of 15 or more assembling in
Village parks after closing.
The Village Board shall have the authority to establish such
fees as deemed necessary for use of any park facility, shelter or
land area. It shall be unlawful to use such areas without payment
of such fee or charge when required.
Prior to granting any permit for exclusive use of the park,
the Village may require the permittee to file evidence of good and
sufficient sureties, insurance in force or other evidence of adequate
financial responsibility, running to the Village and such other third
parties as may be injured or damaged, in an amount depending upon
the likelihood of injury or damage as a direct and proximate result
of the exclusive use sufficient to indemnify the Village and such
third parties as may be injured or damaged thereby, caused by the
permittee, its agents or participants.
A permit is not required for exclusive use of the park or a
park facility sponsored by the Village.
The Village Administrator/staff and/or PRUT Board after granting
a permit may revoke a permit already issued if it is deemed that such
action is justified by an actual or potential emergency due to weather,
fire, riot, other catastrophe or likelihood of a breach of the peace
or by a major change in the conditions forming the basis of the issuance
of the permit.
Each permit shall be in a form prescribed by the PRUT Board
and shall designate the park, park facility or shelter area involved,
date, hours of the exclusive use, purpose of the exclusive use and
the name of the person, group, firm, organization, partnership or
corporation to which the permit is issued, and number of attendees
anticipated.
When fermented malt or wine beverages are sold at any event
authorized by this article, a valid fermented malt or wine beverage
license shall be obtained, and the provisions of §§ 125.26(6)
and 125.51(10), Wis. Stats., shall be fully complied with. The applicant
will apply for such license to the Village Board 30 days before the
event. Said license must be held by the person who filed the original
license and shall be presented to any law enforcement officer upon
request.
Violation of the above rules or regulations shall be punishable as prescribed in Chapter
40, Fees and Penalties, of this Code.
