Green Space Commissioner, Commissioner for Green Space Preservation/Conservation

In the US, the term "green space(s)" is frequently used to refer to land that is partly or completely covered with grass, trees, shrubs, or other vegetation. Green spaces include parks, community gardens, waterfront areas, etc.

Also, the position here is "MIEJSKI" konserwator zieleni, which, in my understanding, refers to a SENIOR OFFICIAL who is in charge of all green areas in the city concerned. Such senior officials are often called "commisioners", at least in the US.
