Improving Transparency in Conservancy Funding
www.ny4p.org/_blog/news
The New York City Council seeks more thorough reporting on how private conservancies help the public park system thrive. We've made the case for more data sharing and data analysis, across conservancy-aided parks and other parks, to get at the true cost of making parks surpass expectations. Tupper Thomas gave this testimony on the issue at a January 29 hearing.

'The city would need to partner in this reporting, by providing similar numbers on its spending in each park. This would help clarify what it takes to fund operations and programming, as well as what would be necessary to keep all parks as well-maintained as the ones we are looking at today.'
