This week we focus on:  Community Green Spaces This first part is Public lands Community green spaces include all lands owned by the town. Open space areas include right of ways, boulevards, parks, pathways, floodplains, roadway medians, buffer strips, public walkways, and some utility parcels of land. Each community is mandated to have a percentage of all land used as green spaces. No one shall cause or allow an encroachment or amenity of any kind to be placed on these green spaces without the approval of the town. (Parking or storing anything) No person in a park or open space area shall: Use a park, park property or open space area other than for its intended use Build a structure Park, or store any vehicle or trailer Dump, discard or place garbage, plant material or grass clippings (Add to this list any local problems you may have) This second part deals with private lands within the town or Rural Municipality: Trespass Act - http://www.justice.gov.sk.ca/Trespass-to-Property-Act updated in 2007 "The Act makes it an offence, without lawful authority, to: enter onto posted or enclosed lands or other premises without the consent of the owner or other occupier; enter onto lands or other premises, even if not posted or enclosed, after being requested not to do so by the owner or other occupier; engage in prohibited activities on the lands or other premises without the consent of the owner or other occupier; fail to leave lands or other premises, or to discontinue an activity, after being requested to do so by the owner or other occupier; and after leaving lands or other premises or discontinuing an activity pursuant to the request of an owner or other occupier, return to the lands or other premises or resume the activities. Persons contravening the Act are liable on summary conviction to a fine of up to $2,000.
