About Measure A

Measure A is a local funding program administered by RPOSD to support improvements in local parks, open spaces, and recreation facilities across Los Angeles County. The program was created following a comprehensive Countywide Parks and Recreation Needs Assessment (PNA), which identified and prioritized areas with the greatest need for park investments. Measure A funds are intended to support projects that enhance community health, promote safe and inclusive spaces, protect natural resources, and expand access to parks.
