The PPC staff works with the city's department of public works (DPW) to create scopes of work based on the regional parks master plan. The work includes ecological research projects such as the study of the genetic diversity of tree populations, the impact of deer on urban parkland and on the organic chemical compounds that trees, shrubs and herbaceous plants exude to inhibit the growth of neighboring plant species.Desc

Part V, Line 4:Endowment Funds are temporarily and permanently restricted in order to provide unrestricted investment income to support operations and projects. The organization does not rely on endowment principal to fund operations or projects.
Part X, Line 2:The conservancy is exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code (IRC). Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require the conservancy's management to evaluate tax positions taken by the conservancy and recognize a tax liability (or asset) if the conservancy has taken a position that is uncertain. An uncertain position is defined as one in which there is a 50% or greater likelihood that the position will not be sustained upon examination by a taxing authority. Management has analyzed the tax positions taken by the Conservancy and has concluded that, as of December 31, 2015, there are no uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken. The Conservancy has recgonzied no interest or penalties realted to uncertain tax positions. The Conservancy is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress. Management believes the Conservancy is no longer subject to income tax examinations for years prior to 2012.
