Alternative Title: Do master plans mean anything?

Fresno does not have enough park space. In 2015, the city’s proud accomplishment was going from dead last in the nation in parks….to tied with dead last, in a ranking developed by the Trust for Public Land. In 2016, the city “rose” to 3rd from the bottom.

But only because the ranking system expanded.

2012 – 40th out of 40
2013 – 50th out of 50
2014 – 60th out of 60
2015 – 74th out of 75
2016 – 97th out of 100
