To deliver quality parks and services, you can’t go it alone. Partnerships are the key to effective park management, operations, and programming. And strong partnerships require strong agreements–ones that clearly define and effectively communicate roles and responsibilities.
Join us to hear how organizations in Houston and the St. Louis region use strong agreements, clear communication, and well-defined maintenance and management protocols to execute complex partnerships. Hear about how to manage turnover in major partnerships and innovative strategies, like creating maintenance reserve funds.
Transform your parks, trails, and public spaces into vibrant, well-maintained, and well-loved places through strong partnership agreements.
