After years of non-resolution, RPD Management and the Commission has approved a Volunteer Policy that park advocates find very exciting! With help from NPC, the Department recognized that to make everyone's efforts more productive, staff should develop work plans for each park, detailing projects that volunteers can work on. In addition, volunteers can now help to envision and implement future landscape improvement projects, as well as perform agreed tasks that gardeners do not have time for.
