Parks & Recreation Commission

Commission Objectives

The Maplewood Parks and Recreation Commission is a seven-member, volunteer advisory board consisting of Maplewood residents committed to promoting parks and recreation issues. 

The commission provides recommendations to the city council on all issues of park acquisition, development, open space, trails and leisure programs. 

The Parks and Recreation Commission works closely with city staff to address the mission of the department, which is to provide a community environment for all citizens to participate in and enjoy cultural and recreational activities on an equitable basis.
