Recreation Services Division 

The philosophy of the Recreation Services Division is to develop and implement programs and activities and provide programs in partnership with other groups and organizations.  We also strive to provide citizens with information about other leisure services in the community.  The City is responsible for the development, programming, and maintenance of an extensive and growing park system with a wide variety of facility types.  

Parks Division

The Parks Division maintains all city parks, street trees, and holiday decorations.  The crew manages 300 acres of open space and parkland, including  sixteen neighborhood parks, three community parks, one nature walk, and a nine-hole golf course.  Parks Division also mows more than 25 miles of right-of-way throughout the city and will routinely police the major highways for litter and apply herbicide to control weeds along guardrails, speed limit and directional signage. Should one observe a broken piece of equipment or an unsafe condition in one of our parks, please bring this to our attention immediately here or by phoning 740-203-1450.
