Park Advisory Councils
The Cincinnati Park Board has always received excellent support from individuals and stakeholder organizations in the neighborhoods. Some groups have formalized their advocacy of a particular park by creating a “park advisory council”. Currently, Cincinnati Parks has active relationships with 24 park advisory councils.
Representatives from each park advisory council meet quarterly under an umbrella organization called the Cincinnati Parks Advisory Council (CPAC). This organization provides a forum for park advisory council representatives to share ideas, report on current programs/projects and receive park staff updates on Cincinnati Park’s budgetary, programmatic and operational issues. CPAC’s mission is to “build and maintain public support for Cincinnati Parks, advise and provide feedback to the Cincinnati Park Board, and exchange and share information between park advisory councils and provide mutual support.”
