Statement oUhe Issue m m Montgomery County Organizational Reform Commission Parks and Recreation Given that the residents of Montgomery County need to relate separately to two agencies for parks and recreation matters - when many other jurisdictions around the country are served by a single agency that combines both functions - the merger of parks and recreation was an areaoffocusfortheORCthatcouldnotbeignored. Weappreciatedtheinsightsofkeystaff members involved in the direction ofthe County's parks and recreation facilities. Discussion o f the Issue and Recommendations Since the County Recreation Department is part of the Executive Branch and the Parks Department is part of the Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission, a bi­ county agency, implementing a merger would require coordination from multiple stakeholders, many o f them not under the purview o f County government. In recent years, a number of alternatives have been discussed, including: (I) consolidation of most recreation services into the Recreation Department, a process begun through the Council's direction in the FYII operating budget; (2) moving Recreation into the Parks Department; (3) moving additional park functions into the Executive Branch; and (4) dismantling the M-NCPPC. The ORC believes that in order to make the parks and recreation system more streamlined and coherent for users, yet another approach should be adopted. )0> Our recommendation is to transfer all "park user services" to the Executive Branch of County government by folding them into the Recreation Department and retaining the park planning functions within M-NCPPC, along with the environmental stewardship of natural, historic and cultural resources on park property. M-NCPPCwouldalsomaintainownershipofallparkland. County government would assume responsibility for all: (1) recreation programming, including classes, camps, and trips; (2) programming and upkeep of sports facilities, including athletic fields, tennis courts, and ice rinks; (3) programming and upkeep of park activity buildings and amenities, including event centers, picnic shelters, boating facilities, and trains/carousels; (4) facility permitting and class registration; and (5) park law enforcement functions (see following section). These responsibilities could be shared by the Recreation, Police, Community Use of Public Facilities, and General Services departments, all o f which are Executive Branch units. The benefits of this option are that it: 1) Creates a management structure that is more streamlined, user-friendly, and consistent in programs, services, policies and procedures; - 20­
