Park Development and Maintenance

Urban green spaces provide residents the opportunity to connect with nature, considering that green areas are a reflection in urban spaces of the natural areas surrounding cities.

Park maintenance includes all the work necessary to keep a public park area safe, clean, and operating efficiently to serve the needs of its visitors.

Park maintenance workers plant shrubs and flowers, grass, trees, and provide pesticide and fertilization services. They also maintain and manage the sprinkler and irrigation systems.

Cleaning and maintaining restrooms, picnic shelters, grills, playground equipment, fire pits, swimming pools, and walking trails are also part of park maintenance. In addition, maintenance empties trash cans throughout buildings and the outdoor areas. They care for, monitor, and repair signs, fences, equipment, pipes, and water filtration systems.
