There is hereby created a zone classification, up to 12 feet in width, over certain existing public easements and rights-of-way and within private access easements as designated on the official zoning map, within which pedestrian-equestrian trails are established to the exclusion of such other uses of land as may be in conflict therewith.

It shall be unlawful for any motor-driven vehicle or motor-driven device to park, ride or drive upon a P-E Zone, except as may be necessary to enter a driveway, exit from a driveway, or perform necessary maintenance of the pedestrian-equestrian trails. No above grade structure, other than necessary fencing and maintenance facilities, shall be permitted within a P-E Zone.

(Ord. 956 Sec. 1, 2013)

§ 18.28.14. Designation of Pedestrian-Equestrian Trails.

The City Engineer/Director of Public Works shall cause the placing of directional signs and other appropriate traffic control devices as may be warranted to designate pedestrian-equestrian trails and to provide for safe and appropriate crossing along the designated City street system.
