The Parks and Recreation Commission, the City’s most infant and smallest department, was formed to construct, expand and maintain the City’s park system and to provide recreational and educational opportunities to Ranson residents and surrounding communities. The Parks and Recreation Department is responsible for the operation of the City’s parks and the Ranson Civic Center. Parks and Recreation offers recreational opportunities for all age groups.
The 2004 Ranson Comprehensive Plan identified a serious deficiency in public parks and recreational opportunities. The City did not have any public parks in 2004. In response, the City Council formed the Ranson Parks and Recreation Commission to oversee and expand the parks system and to provide recreational and educational opportunities. The City of Ranson has made great strides in providing for parks and open space since the 2004 Comprehensive Plan was adopted.
