PARTNERS | HEALTHY CITY  | HOW HEALTHY | VISION | SUMMIT | PRIORITIES | FUNCTIONS | CITY OF FALL RIVER

Environment and Recreation: The quality of the environment of any community, in many ways, predicts the health of any population. Control of litter, removal of abandoned cars and buildings and beautification efforts are among many of the challenges that cities face. Provision of recreational resources, including access to natural resources, and assurance of clean air and water are vital resources in ensuring health.

The Priority Sub-Areas are:

2, A)  Cleaner streets and parks
2, B)  Increased and improved recreational opportunities for youth and
         adults
2, C)  Measures to ensure cleaner air and water
