The City of Loveland is hosting a Funds in Focus: Parks and Recreation public presentation on Wednesday, Dec. 17, 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. in City Council Chambers, 500 E. 3rd St. This is a hybrid event, with in-person and online attendance options, making it easy for community members to participate in the way that works best for them. Those who wish to attend online need to register at https://go.lovgov.org/park-rec-funds. Registered participants will receive a confirmation email with details on how to join the online meeting.

The event, which features Parks and Recreation Director Kara Kish, focuses on the funding sources that support the City of Loveland Parks and Recreation Department. These funding sources allow the city to offer quality of life services and programs, including parkland infrastructure and improvements, multi-modal trails, open lands, cemeteries, the Chilson Recreation and Senior Center, special events, golf courses, and more. Service level budget impacts and the strategies implemented by the department will also be discussed.

Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions specific to parks and recreation.

“Our community has shown a lot of interest in the different facets of our municipal budget,” said Kish. “A deep dive into the Parks and Recreation budget will help our community connect the dots between the resources available and levels of service we are able to support.
