Part of Public Consultation

By Sue-Ann Levy ,Toronto Sun

Park People’s Dave Harvey is so concerned about what will happen to city parks that are already “rough around the edges,” he decided to do something about it.

Instead of sitting back and whining about potential budget cuts and fiscal restraint, the executive director of the fledgling advocacy group put together some “creative ideas” on how to rehabilitate Toronto’s 1,600 parks and parkettes.

Unlike City Hall — where every consultation and resulting report resemble the Second Coming of Christ — the Parks People ideas are thoughtful, concise and contained in just three pages.
