§ 10902 Public Recreation Authority Powers

• •Local governments can create and run recreation programs and facilities.
• •They can buy land, build, fix up, and operate playgrounds and recreation centers.
• •They cannot charge people to attend events, except for amateur sports, demos, exhibits, or other educational events.

A city builds a new playground and a community center where kids can play basketball and families can hold free classes.

The city can set up the playground, run the center, and offer free activities. If they want to hold a ticketed concert, they can't do it under this law unless it's an amateur sports game or an educational show.
