The results of the study show that many city parks that have been built are expected to be well maintained so that they have attractiveness, and ensure the comfort of visitors to enjoy their beauty. However, the Government certainly has a number of limitations in its maintenance so that it requires continuous improvement. The results of this study were derived as new concepts of participatory government based on the urban social context so that in the end they were able to make a concrete contribution to the achievement of the City Park development program strategy as a green open space. Therefore, the recommendation put forward in this study is the need to build a synergistic actor relationship in the management of City Parks that is supported by adequate regulations.]]>
