Dear Mary

Do you have a specific question about Parks policy? Confused about how to get a special event permit? Wondering what a scope meeting is? Navigating the ins and outs of a city agency can be complicated; that's why Partnerships for Parks started the "Dear Mary" column. Mary Price, the Senior Director of Outreach for Brooklyn, the Bronx, and Staten Island, has over 20 years experience working at the Parks Department and has been with Partnerships since we were founded in 1995. When we have questions, we go to Mary, and now you can as well. Go ahead, ask your question.
