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