A University City without parks
Nowhere is the situation more dire than within walking distance of University City’s growing community. University City Partners and the Parks Department staff jointly funded a parks master plan five years ago—anticipating this growth.Nothing in the plan has been done.
That radical change can happen – with your help, now! The time is now for all of us to tell commissioners that we demand more and better parks. Our commissioners will respond when enough citizens call for change. Email each of the commissioners. Encourage friends and family to do the same. Together, let’s make that happen.
