The purpose of this act is to foster and promote the establishment, maintenance and operation of city-county park and recreation systems in order to give all of the citizens of the counties affected hereby equal access to a comprehensive system of recreational facilities. It is the policy of the state to encourage the formation of such cooperative park and/or recreation systems to the end of avoiding unnecessary duplication in the maintenance and operation of public recreational facilities. In order to make adequate recreational services available to the residents of the more densely populated counties of this state, to provide for the most efficient development of recreational facilities for such counties and to provide for each of such counties a city-county park and recreation system, there is hereby created in each such county which avails itself of the provisions of this act a city-county park and recreation commission, with the powers and duties set out in this act.
