Our programs

SOURCE: Self-reported by organization

What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?

Turtle Creek Park - General Park Maintenance

The Conservancy funds private landscape care of developed areas of the park. We would like to increase the amount of the park that we can provide this level of care to, and take it off from the City's responsibility. This allows the park to have elevated care vs. the standard level of care given to other City parks. We currently spend $70,000 on baseline landscaping, and would like to increase to $100,000 annually.
