The Vancouver Park Board announcement includes a notice that holders are responsible for following public health requirements around physical distancing, hand hygiene and the sharing and cleaning of equipment. Vancouver Coastal Health and the Park Board can revoke a permit if rules are not followed. In the statement, the park board says it is taking "a thoughtful and phased approach" to reopening that aligns with the B.C. Golf courses, tennis courts, skate parks and some other outdoor facilities have already reopened in Vancouver. All City of Vancouver sports and recreation facilities shut down in March because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
