D.C. contains almost 7,000 acres of land controlled by the National Park Service, and up until now, the federal agency was charged with maintaining all of it, including the majority of the city’s neighborhood parks.

That changed with the passage of a federal lands package, signed on Tuesday by President Donald Trump, that includes a law allowing the District to rehabilitate, operate, and maintain NPS properties in the city.

“The National Park Service owns nearly all of D.C.’s neighborhood parks, which makes this bill critical to the District,” D.C. Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton said in a statement. “Congress never adequately funds the nation’s many federal parks. Considering that our neighborhood parks, though most are NPS controlled, are central to neighborhood life and enjoyment, this bill will allow the city to tap local and private funds to help renew our precious parks.”

The District and NPS can now enter “cooperative management agreements” to oversee park management, as the park service has long been able to do with states and other cities (just another example of D.C.’s odd legal limbo when it comes to its status as a federal district). That means the city can now put its own money and direct private funding towards park projects.

The test case for this new arrangement will be Franklin Park, which, at 5 acres, is the largest park in downtown D.C. and has long been a target for revitalization. A slew of local and federal entities—NPS, the D.C. Department of General Services, D.C. Office of Planning, D.C. Department of Parks and Recreation, and the DowntownDC Business Improvement District—have been planning the park’s restoration since 2012.

With infrastructure issues like a lack of seating, dead trees, and a faulty fountain, Franklin Park is “currently in need of many functional improvements and updates to enable the park to adequately serve the community,” according to the DowntownDC BID.

DowntownDC is helping to helm the improvements at Franklin Park, and the BID’s president and CEO, Neil Albert, called Trump’s signature on the federal lands package a “major milestone for the District … We look forward to our future role as the District’s operation and maintenance partner for this 21st century park in the heart of the District.”

After Congress passed the bill in February, Ward 6 Councilmember Charles Allen noted that neighborhood parks like Seward Square and Lincoln Park could also see improvements.
