| Mission Statement
|
| Parks and Recreation's mission is to enhance Boise's quality of life by working in partnership with the community to foster and support citizen well being and community environments. |
| |
| Trends, Issues, and Opportunities |
 | As the city continues to grow our challenge is to continue to develop parks and recreational opportunities convenient to all citizens of the city. We also maintain a high standard of safety and cleanliness for existing facilities. We seek opportunities through grants, partnerships, impact fees and solicitation of donations to leverage taxpayer funding in pursuit of these goals. |
| |
| Two-Year Budget Highlights |
| FY2004 and FY2005 will include the continued maintenance of parks and facilities, the Boise City Zoo, Warm Springs Public Golf Course, Recreational programs and facilities through Fort Boise Community Center, City Parks and other locations. We will maintain Right of Way, Urban Forestry, some City Cemeteries, Sports Fields, the Greenbelt and other urban pathways and numerous parks throughout the city. We will continue to acquire property to preserve the foothills and provide for future parks. We will develop trails to support controlled recreational use of the foothills, and other urban pathways. Other capital projects include improvements to existing parks and park facilities, Zoo exhibits, Aquatics facilities, White Water Park, and improvements to major city thoroughfares. |
