About the Parks and Recreation Director

The administration of the Parks and Recreation Department, which includes the operation and programming of recreation facilities, park planning and maintenance, and facility maintenance, is the responsibility of the Parks and Recreation Director. The Parks and Recreation Commission and the Cultural Arts Commission, which are appointed by City Council, provide policy direction. Several volunteer and advisory citizen groups also provide support and recommendations to the Director and staff.
