Parks and Recreation unveils new Columbia Park Reporter  

COLUMBIA, MO (August 31, 2016) - Columbia Parks and Recreation has launched a new web-based reporting tool to help park users communicate park and trail maintenance issues to parks staff. The Park Reporter web application provides park and trail users with an easy mechanism to report issues such as a full trash can, downed tree or wasp nest on a playground.

 

The Columbia Park Reporter is available through the Parks and Recreation website at CoMo.gov/ParksandRec. The reporting tool can be used through the site or the link can be saved to an individual’s home screen on their smartphone.

 

The Park Reporter allows a user to submit a report directly to park staff and to provide key information such as park or trail location, maintenance issue and contact information. The reporting tool also includes a map for the park user to pinpoint the exact location of the reported issue and allows for photos to be uploaded to the report to provide additional information regarding the maintenance issue.

 

Once the park user has completed the report, parks staff receive notification of the problem and can begin to investigate the issue at the reported park or trail. The park user will have the ability to monitor the status of the report as well, to determine when the issue will be fixed.  

 

For more information, contact the Parks and Recreation Department at 573-874-7460.
