§ 19-1002. Purpose - Commission created
The purpose of this act is to foster and promote the
establishment, maintenance and operation of city-county park and

the formation of such cooperative park and/or recreation systems to

operation of public recreational facilities.
In order to make adequate recreational services available to the
residents of the more densely populated counties of this state, to
provide for the most efficient development of recreational
facilities for such counties and to provide for each of such
counties a city-county park and recreation system, there is hereby
created in each such county which avails itself of the provisions of
this act a city-county park and recreation commission, with the
powers and duties set out in this act.
