Parks Division:               

Parks Foreman:
Rex Brady

This division is responsible for the design, construction, operations and maintenance of park and recreation areas in the Canon City area. Fourteen separate public park areas that are owned and maintained by the City exceed 6440 acres and are located in a radius of 10 miles around the city. This division makes sure that good turf grass management practices are followed, trees and shrubs are maintained, recreational facilities are cleaned and repaired, camp grounds, picnic areas, trails and open space areas are patrolled and rules and regulations are enforced. The division also insures that trash and litter is removed in all parks, public areas, and the Main Street pedestrian area. The City of Canon City and the Canon City Area Metropolitan Recreation & park District share park areas and equipment so duplication of services does not occur. The Park Division is also responsible for obtaining and administering a range of grants.
