The purpose of the park board is to provide a high quality of life for the city's residents through

protection of its natural resources, its scenic, historical and aesthetic values, and by development of

compatible facilities for public enjoyment. One of the board's functions as an advisory body is to hold

public meetings and make recommendations to the city council. For

each item, the board will receive reports prepared by city staff, provide the opportunity for public

response, conduct board discussions and make recommendations. The city council,

however, makes all final decisions on these matters.
