Chandler Park Projects and Meetings
Chandler's Park Operations Divisions maintains nearly 700 acres of developed park land at more than 50 park sites. The division also acquires land for new parks, and plans, designs and develops new parks and special use facilities.
The Chandler Parks Division strives to meet the recreational and open space needs of Chandler citizens. As new parks and facilities are planned, Parks staff works with Chandler residents on the design and development of Chandler parks. Current and future Park Projects are also listed in the City's Capital Improvement Program (CIP) (PDF).
