What it does
This bill would require the Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR), in consultation with other appropriate City agencies, to develop a plan to mitigate the occurrences of wildfires in parks by March 1, 2026. The plan would have to be posted on DPR’s website and updated regularly. This bill would also require DPR to report annually on wildfires that occur in parks under its jurisdiction.
