Off Road Vehicles Not Allowed In Park Or On City Streets
1/10/2025
Just a reminder....off-road vehicles, or any type of vehicle, are not allowed in the City Park or the baseball field. The gates are locked to discourage this and to keep the grounds nice for residents. Off road vehicles are not allowed on City streets at any time. Sheriff deputies randomly come through town, and being stopped would possibly result in a citation being issued. Please do not deliberately do damage to the roads by doing donuts, sliding around corners, etc. We have no material to repair the roads with, and if they are torn up, they will have to be repaired with caliche.
