The São Paulo State Government, through the Secretariat for Investment Partnerships (SPI), has extended the deadline for public consultation on the concession of six urban parks in the capital to August 1, 2025.

The parks included in the project are currently managed by the Parks Coordination Office, under the Secretariat for Environment, Infrastructure and Logistics (SEMIL). They are: Dom Paulo Evaristo Arns Youth Park, Manoel Pitta Belém State Park, Tietê Ecological Park – Engenheiro Goulart Unit, Vila Jacuí Park, Maria Cristina Hellmeister de Abreu Park, and Itaim Biacica Park. The concession model proposes a 30-year contract and estimates over BRL 144.7 million (US$26.6 million) in investments over the period, with BRL 60.4 million (US$11 million) to be invested in the first four years. Planned improvements include the revitalization of existing structures, expansion of recreational areas, creation of sports facilities, and implementation of new services focused on public well-being.

A key feature of the project is the planned reactivation of the aquatic complex at Tietê Ecological Park, which will offer pools for leisure, sports, and children's activities. To support the project’s financial sustainability, revenue-generating facilities such as parking areas and commercial establishments are also included in the proposal. The selected concessionaire will receive annual public compensation from the State, capped at BRL 23.7 million (US$4 million), contingent upon meeting established performance indicators and quality benchmarks.
