(BROWNSTOWN) - The Brownstown Town Council approved an ordinance to ban the riding or operating of bicycles, skateboards, roller skates, inline skates, rollerblades or scooters at the park at Heritage Park on East Walnut Street and the Jackson County Courthouse square.
Anyone who violates the ordinance will be fined $75. If the fine is not paid within seven days, it increases to $100.
The ordinance came from a suggestion from the town's parks board to prevent someone from getting hurt and prevent damage.
A small sign will be erected near the pavilion to remind people of the new ordinance.
