Park maintenance staff will concentrate on HJ Carroll, Oak Bay, and Irondale Community Park, East Beach Park, and Indian Island Park. The Adopt-A-Park Program will continue to support other parks. The Park Caretaker Programs at Gibbs Lake, HJ Carroll, and Oak Bay Campground program will to play an important role. A key issue in parks maintenance is the maintenance backlog which will be documented in the updated Parks, Recreation and Open Space Plan.
