Parks & Recreation Board
Overview
The Parks and Recreation Board was established in June of 1965 as the first step in developing a parks and recreation department to serve the citizens of Wentzville.
This volunteer advisory group to the Board of Aldermen, Mayor and Director of Parks and Recreation serves as a sounding board by holding public meetings and exercising influence throughout the City to improve and expand recreational opportunities. The Park Board acts in an advisory role and provides the citizen perspective to the professional staff in all matters relating to the operation and maintenance of the city park system. The members of the board are actively involved in the process of developing future parkland and amenities. Members are appointed by the Mayor and approved by the Board of Aldermen for a three-year term. Positions may be reappointed by the Mayor once their term has expired.
