Abstract

The administration of public recreation is a complex one. Many public agencies play an important role in its functions and as such want the authority to govern. Divided responsibilities and authority lead to duplication of efforts, poor economy, planning, and administration. It is essential that rec reation responsibilities and authority be vested in one central public agency. The question before us is whether such an agency should be administered by a recreation commission, a recreation department working with a citizens' advisory council, or the school boards of education.
