PHOENIX — The Phoenix City Council voted on Wednesday to reopen park amenities that were closed at the beginning of the pandemic.
The reopening will be effective on Friday, with the exception of some parts managed by the Parks and Recreation Department, which require could require more time.
Phoenix public parks, trails and golf courses have remained open with high-touch surfaces and areas that made physical distancing difficult, closed to the public.
The council is encouraging people to continue following certain guidelines related to responsible social distancing including:
- Do not use public recreational amenities if you are exhibiting symptoms of illness
- Wear a mask of face covering
- Bring your own wipes and hand sanitizer
- Keep a safe distance of six feet or more from others
More information about outdoor or virtual recreational programs can be found on the Phoenix parks website.
