I went to parks and recreation on June 24th to get an alcohol permit for hart park on Saturday the 25th. Got there about 4:10pm. Front staffed (like 3 ladies standing around) called Karen up. Karen said because they are under or short staffed it's too late to get a permit. For me to stop a ranger and ask for one. And if the ranger gave me any problems tell him that Karen said too. I'm not sure of her last name something like Mckenzie, mckinsley or Kinsey. She tells me the rules and the cost. Then I left. Thinking by time she told me all that she could have gave me a permit.
Anyway Saturday we did what she said and stopped a ranger. He said they've already had this talk with them, they won't give out permits because it's a form of extortion because they also give tickets to people who drink with out permits. So it's like give me $10 or give me $100. I sorta understood what he was saying and he was nice about it but at same time it's irritating. You try to do the right thing and someone always putting up road blocks.
What makes me the most mad, Karen knew full well the ranger was not going to give me a permit when she said that, since he said they've already had the discussion and it was made clear to them they don't give permits. She flat out lied to me. So if u go in to get a permit, don't leave with out one. She gives u a line of b.s. don't believe her. OBVIOUSLY SHES JUST LAZY !!
