Bill	AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 29 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO THE PARKS AND RECREATION COUNCIL.	Since the creation of the Delaware Heritage Greenway Council in 1992 which then became the Delaware Council on Greenways and Trails, creation and maintenance of greenways and trails have become an important part of the mission of the Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control, and especially its parks system. This bill merges the work of the Council on Greenways and Trails with the Parks Advisory Council to formally join their efforts. The two councils already collaborate on the Outdoor Recreation Parks and Trails grant program. This bill expands the Parks Advisory Council and adds trails and greenways as a background sought for some parks council members, and also adds representatives from the General Assembly which the Council on Greenways and Trails has had but the Parks Advisory Council does not currently have.	us/states/de	Delaware General Assembly	151	SB 190	Delaware SB 190 (151)	bill		enacted	David P.
