Background Information•
The Greater Lake Creek Park Project involves three existing park properties and
several parcels of land that the City already has or will acquire through the platting
process of new neighborhoods. Clay Madsen Park, Greenlawn Park, and Lake Creek
Park will all receive improvements in the form of new development and/or
renovations. These three parks will also be connected with a hike & bike trail. Also
included in this project will be the City's first skate park, dog park, and inline hockey
facility. This project is partially funded by a Texas Parks and Wildlife Dept. (TPWD)
Grant and a Grant from the Lower Colorado River Authority (LCRA).
Public Comment:
In addition to a focus group that was formed to specifically address end-user
concerns, the Parks and Recreation department has received several petitions and
numerous requests over the past three years for a skate park. Also, several
public hearings associated with the Grant applications were held.
