Feedback for Parks & Recreation

Overseeing and maintaining every Park and Recreation location in any city can be overwhelming. Layer the difficulty of staffing during these times on top, and it can feel insurmountable. Cities usually post a number to call if there’s an issue, but the public is unlikely to reach out about concerns that aren’t emergencies. Overflowing trashcans, stopped-up toilets, a broken basketball rim, and other inconveniences can persist, projecting a poor image for the city.

By the Numbers

Only 10% of counties have after-hours contact available for assistance that is non-emergency related. Municipalities have no way of easily getting critical information from their citizens.

Maintenance issues that go unresolved cost municipalities up to 300% more rather than resolving them as they happen.

Emergency rooms treat over 200,000 kids under 14 for playground injuries each year. Poorly maintained equipment and dangerous conditions can result in serious harm.

97% of Parks and Rec department’s main tools for receiving input from residents are through surveys, phone calls, and virtual or in-person meetings.
