Garbage in parks and what you can do
Staff estimates that 75% of waste picked up on parks and trails are the result of illegally dumped household garbage.
Illegal dumping of household waste is an environmental concern that pollutes our public spaces, poses a threat to wildlife, and endangers human health and safety. Violators will be fined. If you see it, report it. Use the Report an Issue tool below to report illegal dumping of waste in municipal waste bins. Please dispose of your waste responsibly and help keep our parks and trails clean for all to enjoy.
Parks, Recreation and Culture look after playground equipment in 20 locations. Included are nine fully accessible playgrounds for children of all ages. Playgrounds are inspected regularly.
