    Natural Turf Maintenance

    Metadata Updated: March 22, 2025

    From May to mid-October, Parks performs routine natural turf maintenance across the city's parks. Natural turf is any lawn area consisting of non-synthetic grass that must be mowed on a regular basis. A park or park zone that includes sites with lawn areas large enough to require the use of mowing equipment is considered a 'turf site'. There can be multiple turf sites within a given park. There are three types of maintenance done at these sites: lawn mowing, trimming lawn edges, and blowing away clippings and debris that occurred during the mowing and trimming.

    At the start of each day, crews receive an assignment designating which sites to visit and what work needs to be done at that site (in the data, this assignment is referred to as the ""assigned tasks"").

    At the conclusion of each site visit, a staff member is responsible for completing a survey that confirms what work was and was not completed. This data set is the compilation of those survey responses.
