Historical NoteReturn to Top

Created by Resolution 30003, the Pro Parks 2000 Committee was convened to ensure citizen participation in the development of park, open space, and recreation projects and programs. The committee started with the objectives identified in the Parks comprehensive plan that was written in 1993 and updated several years later as part of the neighborhood planning process. Members were directed to develop a package of projects and identify options to fund those projects, including bonds, levies, and junior taxing districts. The committee was made up of 28 citizens selected by the Parks Department based on their past participation in neighborhood and/or park planning as well as their representation of a cross section of the community.
