Seattle Parks has split its furlough days so that the entire department isn’t completely closed all on one day – the next two-day split is just a few days away, so here’s the announcement of what facilities are affected – read on:
Many Seattle Parks and Recreation facilities will be closed on Friday, March 12, and Monday, March 15, for a furlough day.
City of Seattle employees are taking 10 days off without pay in 2010 to help fill the budget gap. Seattle Parks and Recreation has worked hard to schedule furlough days in a way that has the smallest possible impact on customers, and that provides as much coverage as possible.
These facilities and services are closed on Friday, March 12
* Grounds maintenance
* Community centers (except child care and late night programs, which will still operate).
* Swimming pools
* Environmental Learning Centers
* Lifelong Recreation (except Food and Fitness programs, which will still operate)
* Business Service Center
These facilities and services are closed on Monday, March 15:
* Administrative offices (communications, correspondence, Park Board support, web management, public outreach, human resources, finance and administration)
* Planning and Development Division
* Magnuson Park office
These facilities will operate normally:
* Golf courses will operate as usual.
* The Seattle Aquarium will assign furloughs individually to ensure that its 24-hour animal care responsibilities are met and that it stays open to the public
