Great cities are defined by great parks.

The City of Chattanooga is developing a Parks and Outdoors Plan (POP) that will offer a road map and path forward to reinvent Chattanooga as a city in a park—where a system of parks and protected open spaces connect people to each other, where all neighborhoods have well-loved and well-used parks, and where nature and its benefits are integrated throughout the city.
