Parks and Property Inspection and Maintenance Checklist: Mode 3

This Parks and Property PM Checklist is intended for use by employees, volunteers and administrative staff as a source of important information about the Parks Division and its’ operations. This is also to provide eachemployee or volunteer with a learning tool which will guide them in doing an effective and efficient job in the maintenance of any park system.

    By grouping the properties into modes, and setting standards for each maintenance category in each mode, all properties will be clean, well maintained, and in proper working condition for use by the public. In addition, properties that are used the most will receive the highest levels of maintenance. Some properties may cross over between two or more modes, depending upon amenities available at that park.

    Different Modes of Maintenance:

    Mode 1 - Highest level mode of maintenance

    Mode 2 - Mid-level mode of maintenance

    Mode 3 - Low mode of maintenance
