P arks and Open Space is committed to providing and maintaining a safe and
accessible park system that meets the demands and diversity of the entire community.
This is accomplished through highly trained professional staff, excellent resources and clear direction from management staff and City Council.
The City of Dublin Parks and Open Space Division is responsible for maintaining more than 1,400 acres of public land. This land includes natural areas, green ways, cemeteries, rights-of-way, street trees, landscaped areas and athletic fields.
All service operations are based out of the City of Dublin Service Center, with the exception of two satellite facilities at Avery Park and Darree Fields. One additional satellite facility is planned for Emerald Fields.
The division operates two shifts: a first shift covering seven days a week and a second shift covering five days a week. The division has personnel on-call year-round to handle emergency situations. The division is broadly segregated into three main working groups: Grounds Maintenance, Forestry and Horticulture.
Grounds Maintenance responsibilities include the upkeep of turf, park equipment, ponds, irrigation systems, athletic fields and other grounds-related duties in more than 1,500 acres of parks, open space, right-of-way and cemeteries. Grounds Maintenance also is responsible for operations associated with the Dublin Cemetery, the only active cemetery maintained by the City.
Grounds Maintenance has an active role in the support of various special events, snow removal and issues related to the bike path system.
