Park Maintenance Standards and Scores

Recreation and Park Department (RPD) parks are now being rated on a quarterly basis. All Neighborhood Parks (approximately 175) are evaluated each quarter other than those closed for renovations.

Staff inspecting the parks includes horticultural supervisors, structural maintenance supervisors, and administrative staff and managers. They make unannounced visits to different parks each quarter and do not evaluate parks for which they have supervisory responsibility. The parks are inspected using the San Francisco Park Maintenance Standards Manual. The manual contains excellent information explaining the standards, the preparatory research conducted in order to develop the standards, and how the inspections are specifically completed.

Park Maintenance Standards Inspection Results by Fiscal Year (FY) Quarter. Results are presented by fiscal year, July 1 through June 30, as this is the calendar by which the City conducts business.
