Arani Town - Municipal

Chapter - 10 Final Report: Arani Municipality
10.1.9 Parks and Play Ground
1. Needs:
a. Restoration of parks with children play facilities, greenery, lawns, tree
plantation etc.
b. Development of new parks/ play fields
c. Development of road side gardens through sponsorship
d. Walkways all-round the parks
Apart from acting as the lung spaces and recreation area to the local population,
these parks could act as a temporary resting and refreshment area for the people. A
look at the parks reveals that they are very poorly maintained and are used for other
than the designated uses. All the parks require proper fencing for maintenance and
right use of the land parcels; Landscaping of the parks is a must by planting of
choice species. Provision of pathways along the periphery of the parks with shrubs
and plantations on both the sides is one of the present requirements as walkways for
all age groups of residents. Maintenance of greenery comprising shady, ornamental
and avenue trees will greatly improve the quality and usage of parks. Fountains and
water supply provisions should be provided in the parks at appropriate places. The
maintenance of the parks may be entrusted to interested voluntary agencies on
private participation/donation. Also some of the commercial houses may be
involved in maintaining the parks providing appropriate advertising space.
