We hope that the Report Card will serve as a catalyst to community involvement, with friends and neighbors working together to evaluate their local parks.

The Department and the Anchorage Park Foundation will continue to seek public and private funding for the Community Council Capital requests, and will identify new park needs with this report card tool. The results will also be indispensable to you, as you set budget priorities.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For a list of targeted neighborhood parks and scheduled Report Card assessment dates, see <a href=\"https:\/\/anchorageparkfoundation.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.AnchorageParkFoundation.org<\/a>.
