Prioritize parkland dedication over cash-in-lieu contribution, where opportunities exist.

Seek opportunity to augment the Parkland Acquisition Reserve Fund in order to ensure a dedicated source of funding to support parks acquisition. Explore what contributions to include such as grants, money received from the sale or disposal of parkland, or parcel based tax levy. In case of school closure or relocation, work with the School District 71 to explore opportunities for protecting, retaining, enhancing, and acquiring the open space components of these properties as City parks.
