Parks, Recreation & Neighborhoods

Our Mission Statement

We create community and enhance neighborhoods through people, parks, programs and facilities. 

The dedicated employees of the Parks, Recreation and Neighborhoods Department can be found throughout the community.  We are the people who plan, develop and rent parks and facilities in addition to planning and executing programs for all ages and abilities.  We look forward to seeing you at one of our parks, programs or special events.
