Aurora offers well-maintained parks, beautiful open space areas and two scenic reservoirs. A Park and Open Space permit is required, and a fee will be assessed, at any city-owned park, recreation area, open space site, trail or reservoir if the request is for commercial use, exclusive use, or if the proposed activity will impact other park users and/or general park operations.
