Welcome to the City of Dallas Park and Recreation Department Internal Engagement Site

As part of the Comprehensive System Master Plan and Strategic Plan Update, the City of Dallas Park and Recreation Department is gathering input from staff across the system.

Staff are encouraged to share operational insights, ideas, and opportunities for improvement using the Ideas Wall, Survey and Interactive Map below.

Your experience and perspective will help inform priorities and guide future planning for parks, programs, and facilities across Dallas.

During the Dallas Park and Recreation quarterly staff meeting in early 2026, staff were asked to share their hopes and dreams for the future of the department using a live Mentimeter activity. A total of 116 responses were collected, and the word cloud below highlights these early ideas from staff across the department.

As you participate in the tools on this page, feel free to build on these ideas or share new ones that can help shape the future of Dallas Park and Recreation.
