Nature Center Building is Now Open
Under a reorganization plan, Parks and Recreation and the Nature Center have transitioned into the Parks and Natural Resources Department, which is now located in the Nature Center building. The reorganization has allowed the City to reopen the facility during the week for use of indoor restrooms and common lobby area. Additionally, the department has resumed occasional on-site educational programing. Community outreach events will resume citywide this spring and summer.
The reorganized department will oversee parks and open space operations and maintenance. It will also carry out the City’s environmental planning, climate mitigation and adaption mission, and pursuit of wildlife and natural resources protection and education.
