In today’s episode, we are talking about all things parks with Assistant Community Services Director Joey Forseth-Deshais. His team of parks professionals oversees the operation and maintenance of all of Redding’s 52 city parks, various other City Facilities, including City Hall, and nearly 24,000 street trees AND street median landscaping.
Much of this work happens early in the morning and out of the public eye. In fact, Joey and his team work hard to ensure any maintenance issues that come up, are taken care of long before the public begins using the parks each day. This level of work requires certifications of all kinds. They have playground specialists, certified arborists, and chemical and pest specialists, to name a few.
It’s easy to take our beautiful park spaces for granted, but if you have any experience maintaining your own landscaping around your house, you understand what a huge undertaking it is to maintain nearly 645 acres of parkland in Redding. So maybe take a walk in a park while you listen to this episode. It might give you a whole new appreciation for Redding Parks.
