Board assigns park audits, asks members to submit forms by next meeting

Farmers Branch Parks & Recreation Advisory Board · October 23, 2023

Summary

The board distributed a six‑page park audit form and assigned parks to members, asking audits be completed and returned by the next meeting to inform possible repurposing or amenity changes.

Speaker 1 introduced the park‑audit form to the board, describing its purpose as a way to identify parks that may need updates or repurposing as community demographics and recreation preferences change. "A lot of the purpose of this audit is just to see if something needs to be updated or even repurposed," Speaker 1 said.

Speaker 6 confirmed the form had been sent electronically and noted staff also provided a city park list with locations. Speaker 4 said they were assigned three parks to audit. Members discussed timing and logistics and Speaker 1 suggested completing audits by the next meeting so the board can have a follow‑up feedback session about repurposing options.

Board members were instructed to complete the six‑page form for each assigned park and to vary audit times (evening, noon, weekends) where feasible to capture patterns of use. The audits are intended to inform future agenda items and any recommendations the board will make to the city council.
