About Park Planning and Development Services

This Division is responsible for park planning, parkland acquisition, park master planning, and the design and development of new - or renovation of existing - neighborhood, community and regional parks, bikeways and open space throughout the City. See more information and contacts on the Advance Planning Team and Landscape Architecture pages.

Information online includes the Development Standards for Park Land, Park Category Descriptions, and Park Development Process Timeline. Some of this information will change as standards are aligned with the Parks and Recreation Master Plan 2005-2010 Technical Update.

For More Information

To learn more about the planning, design and development of City parks call (916) 808-5200; for current projects see Park Master Plans. You may also use the online Program and Service Feedback Form to submit requests for park site updates.

If you have a project that you would like to add to the Department’s Parks and Recreation Programming Guide, please refer to the 2010 PRPG form. The guide evaluates and scores park and facility projects for funding and development prioritization. A new Parks and Recreation Programming Guide is prepared every two years.
