In an attempt at heading off a budget deficit, Pima County supervisors are expected to consider reductions in the parks and recreation department including the closure of facilities.
The board could also decide to raise fees for use of athletic fields when it meets Tuesday.
Supervisors are expected to get an update from department officials on potential cuts in programs and closures of some community centers and parks to avoid a budget shortfall for the current fiscal year.
Last month, the board approved some fee increases for athletic field use and aquatic programs. Those could be undone Tuesday for additional review.
Supervisors complained at last month's session that information on the proposed changes was not provided early enough to be adequately studied.
They also want to hear from more people before shutting parks and cutting services.
I hope they can find a better solution!
