The significance of community autonomy for park maintenance and management is two-facet: so far as what the park is concerned, the community autonomy shapes it with more local specialty; as what the community is concerned, the features of community park advocate the convenience and the flexibility of time for the public to take part in maintenance; thus, by means of maintenance and management activities, neighbors gradually form sense of belonging and conformity alongside participation. The community autonomy put forth in literature argues community inherent with the nature of initiative, independent decision-making, self-restraint and self-governing, as well as opportunity-creating and enforcing ability. In the event of “the Award of Merit Community Park and Persistent Maintenance” hosted by the Department of Civil Affairs in 2008, the evaluation items that are taken into consideration prove that the keys of function fall not only on the maintenance and environmental beautification, but also on community participation and the display of community vitality; in this way, it is also the event’s primary aim to encourage more community participation to maintain and manage community parks. The next focus moves on to the kind of community autonomy and participation process that the award-winning community park is to offer. The study uses the three award-winning parks of “the Award of Merit Community Park and Persistent Maintenance”, that is, Min-Yo Park no.1, 2 and 3 in Sun San District of Taipei as targets of the research; through on-site investigation and interview, it is expected to make sense of the process from the mobilization of the manpower to the establishment of management routine that three merit community parks adapt, followed by a survey to assess, on the one hand, the maintenance and management of three merit community parks; on the other hand, the implementation of community autonomy spirit. The last part of this study applies the evaluation sheet of community autonomy created by Graduate Institute; by means of synthesized analysis, it aims at setting up guidelines in contribution to the process of community participation in community parks.
