Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board Case Study

            The state government requires all public and private entities to pursue public interests, which means their missions and visions should be designed with the needs of the community in mind. So far, the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board has been considered as among the best park boards in America. Since its inception in the late 1880s, this board has successfully overseen the nation's largest park systems, which serve millions of guests annually. Based on state’s regulations, it has found ways to align its operations with expectations of the public.

 In America, private companies usually build public value through an array of means. The government can develop tax-exemptions if they create public value by perhaps serving the public at less cost and creating tax savings. It is the mission of this park to protect, maintain, preserve, and enhance its frivolous chances for the present as well as coming generations (Minneapolis Park & Recreation Board). To achieve these objectives, the board needs to design and maintain an infrastructure that serves the interests of the public.  The board's mission statement is valid and has so far served the interests of past and current generation. Also, the board’s superintendent has reconstructed the board to pave way for accountability and effective strategic planning processes. This strategy has enabled the board to continue to serve the interests of the society effectively.
