PB17-1. - Purpose; interpretation; and application.
The City of Minneapolis and the Park and Recreation Board jointly enacted concurrent 20 Year Neighborhood Park Plan ordinances to achieve a shared goal of closing a neighborhood parks funding gap. An important element of the joint 20 Year Neighborhood Park Plan ordinances was a commitment to ensure that racial and economic equity criteria were utilized in determining the distribution of funds to neighborhood parks during the period of the Plan. PB17 is being adopted to implement the goals of the joint 20 Year Neighborhood Park Plan ordinances and establish objective criteria to assist the Park Board, the Park Board Superintendent and Park Board staff in evaluating the relative need of all neighborhood parks, including undeveloped parks. PB17 is intended to be read in conjunction with PB16 and in furtherance of the goals outlined therein.
