It is obvious that many urban areas are predominantly covered by concretesrnand nature is becoming less accessible for the existing and the comingrngeneration. The study of this research has focused on the plan,rnimplementation & management and the extent to which residentsâ€™ utilizerngreen areas, mainly focused on city parks using primary and secondary data.rnThe City Government has planned to develop 40% of the city with greeneryrnat the year 2003. But, till 2014, it is not successful to achieve its plan mainlyrndue to lack of strong enforcement of the Local Development Plan (LDP) andrnpoor land use management. The existing major green area componentsrn(forests and city parks) have a total size of 8229.7 hectare (15.24% of city`srnarea) with limited degree of development. The up keeping and managementrnof green areas in general and city parks in particular is limited mainly due tornLack of experienced human resource. Lack of clear legislation & justice, lessrnparticipation of the community, and lack of sufficient documentation relatedrnto green area development has also contributed for the conversion, damagernand limited development of green areas.rnEven though residents are aware of about the importance of green areas, thernfacility of existing City parks is very poor and their location & size is lessrnaccessible. Thus, frequency of visiting parks is limited mainly due tornunattractive facility of parks, shortage of time, distance and transport factors.rnThus, the city government is expected to create a green frame at watershedrnlevel; sufficient and stable man power; strong planning, monitoring andrnEvaluation system; clear standard and naming; modern documentation andrnspatial Data (GIS); active community involvement; and sufficient facilities ofrnparks
