City Wide Park Equipment and Site Improvements

The City of Miami Parks and Recreation Department is managing a city-wide Parks improvement effort. These improvements support the department's mission to enrich and inspire the community and visitors by promoting a world-class park system that is safe, accessible, and facilitates a healthy and happy quality of life. Park site improvements will include, but will not be limited to:

  • Water fountains,
  • Grounds maintenance equipment,
  • Playground equipment,
  • Turf repair and replacement,
  • Site furnishings such as benches and picnic tables,
  • Lighting upgrades for sports and security,
  • Pickleball court conversion (resurfacing existing tennis courts to allow for pickleball court play),
  • Pickleball court creation (constructing new pickleball courts), and
  • Pool liner resurfacing/replacement, and pool covers and heating/cooling units to regulate the temperatures in citywide pools for safety of users.
    Funding is needed for equipment, labor, and construction of this City-wide effort. The ARPA (SLFRF) funds, in the amount of $2,000,000, will be managed by the Parks and Recreation Department and will go towards the park improvements, as noted above.
