Urban Parks Management in New Jersey

view report pdf

This report examines urban parks management in New Jersey. The report was conducted to inform the City of Newark Central Planning Board’s recently adopted Master Plan Re-examination Report, which includes the establishment of a park along the Passaic River, through a vision for the new park that is publicly owned, funded and managed by a government entity, and achieves the goal of engaging adjacent landowners and residents in a stewardship process to complement the contributions of the public sector.
