Public Resources

Public resources are assets or services provided by the government for the benefit of everyone in society. Examples include parks, highways, public libraries, and clean air. These resources are funded by taxes and are meant to be accessible to all, supporting community well-being, education, transportation, and safety. They are essential for ensuring equitable access to key services and infrastructure that contribute to quality of life and economic stability. Public resources are managed collectively to serve the common good, rather than for individual profit or private ownership.
