Facility managers and park rangers need to have the resources to deal with safety and cleanliness issues quickly, securely, and effectively. Employees at every level must be trained to know how to respond to specific incidents that might impact the safety of patrons and themselves. Much of this is already in place throughout the District, but policies and training should be updated regularly. Ongoing education of employees is key. New policies for resource conservation have been implemented throughout the District over the last few years. These include water use, management of utilities, and changes in vehicle use to reduce gas consumption. There continue to be new developments in resource conservation. The District should encourage employees to research innovative methods and suggest ways to implement them across SSPRD. The Board of Directors must be proactive in managing the District budget with a view toward continued changes in the cost of maintaining current facilities. Additional facilities and major upgrades to older ones need to be closely monitored to ensure that the pace of construction does not outpace the capability of the District to manage expenses.
