Parks and Recreation
All aspects of Parks and Recreation, including administration, the Parks and Recreation advisory board, capital projects, park maintenance and operations, and recreation programming
have become far more demanding, but Parks and Recreation resources have not increased to meet the demand. Please see separate spread sheet. The gap has been closed through innovations
in equipment, management, volunteerism, partnerships, grant funding, and fee increases, but it is not enough. Parks and Recreation is a core service and should have dedicated and sustainable
funding. If general fund revenue is unable to keep pace with rising costs, then policy makers should seek other sustainable revenue sources. The option of reducing services is not a
viable solution for the community.
