Better Parks
for Stronger Communities
Every Angeleno deserves parks that are safe, welcoming, clean, and fully staffed — regardless of zip code. L.A. City’s park and recreation system is one of the last truly public, affordable spaces in L.A. for families and friends to gather, kids to play and learn, and seniors to connect.

LOS ANGELES, VOTE
YES ON PRK
By November 3rd

WHAT IS
Measure
PRK?
Los Angeles loves our parks, but over the last decade we’ve seen them decline with funding cuts. Park facilities need almost $3 billion in repairs, and pools, recreation, and senior centers have cut hours.
The reason? Chronic underfunding. L.A.'s parks are funded 2/3 less than similar cities. Park funding has not kept up with other City services. We’ve lost 1/3 of the full-time park staff needed to keep parks safe and clean.
Measure PRK is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to transform our parks system for working families across Los Angeles — restoring clean beaches, safe playgrounds and facilities, expanding recreational and community programming that keeps kids and seniors connected, safe and active, and ensuring every Angeleno has a welcoming place to gather with family and friends, build community, and stay cool.
Measure PRK does this by increasing the parks guaranteed budget over 10 years, so our parks can give Angelenos the services they need — without raising taxes!
Measure PRK would help fund a variety of critical services Angelenos rely on without raising taxes, including:

Restoring public hours and programs at the City's 120+ recreation centers, senior centers, museums, and historic sites - making sure they can stay open 7 days a week

Restoring services at public pools and beaches

Repairing aging facilities and addressing a $3 billion backlog of deferred repairs

Restoring groundskeeping and restroom cleaning at 500 parks citywide

Rebuilding the Park Ranger Division for safety and fire prevention

Staffing and resourcing cooling centers and evacuation centers for emergency management

Planting trees and managing natural resources and ecologically sensitive areas

Addressing gaps in park equity for underserved neighborhoods through new park acquisition and activating community school parks

Improving safety and cleanliness

Expanding youth & senior programming

Maintaining playgrounds and sports fields

Keeping trash & pollutants out of creeks, rivers, lakes, coastal waters and beaches
