These are projects that can be supported by Measure O funds. While these examples represent the highest park funding needs now, over time the needs will change as our population changes or as facilities need to be repaired or replaced.

Each city prepares a variety of planning documents that are provided to the public to guide the spending of the finite and diminishing dollars available for parks and recreation programs. Your local city will make the decision how to spend your local Measure O funds.
