It is found that parks, recreational facilities and public open spaces are necessary elements of public welfare. Therefore, the public health, safety and welfare require that at least ten acres of property, and an amount of money sufficient to develop such ten acres, for every 1,000 residents be supplied. It is the purpose of this chapter to define the necessary authority to the Planning Commission, Department of Public Service and Council in order to attain this purpose.
