The commission determined that: if an ice rink was as simple as no lights, no chilling machine, no boards above six inches high, and the ice rink was in the back yard, then it would not require approval.

If the temporary ice rink is more elaborate, it would require approval from the commission.

Residents are asked to check with the commission before constructing a temporary rink to find out if a permit is required.
