THE PARKS MAINTENANCE FUNDING PICTURE

Parks maintenance for the majority of our parks (49, as of 2020) comes from the Landscape Maintenance District (LMD) or Community Finance District (CFD). These districts were set up as part of development, and have varying funding levels depending on the fees charged to local residents.

Most of our neighborhood parks and all of our community parks and sports complexes are funded through the General Fund.

Measure V, passed by Tracy voters in 2016, raises about $10 miillion each year to fund City services - which could potentially include operations and maintenance of parks.

Tracy is comprehensively studying its financing structure.
