Idea Submission for The People's Money:
Parks should have more events, festivals, and fairs all year round, not only during peak season. This way we incorporate other topic areas to be help and utilized at the spaces. It can be open space for public safety trainings, would encourage more connections made within a community. Ex. Job fairs, food donations, small businesses, and workshops.
What is the problem your idea aims to address?
