Cedar Park's next largest city park will be located on 200 acres between Bell Boulevard and Little Elm Trail. Construction began in August, and completed work includes installation of erosion control, site work clearing, excavation, embankment, and water and sewer line installation, according to the city.
Phase 1 will include a multipurpose pavilion for music and performing arts, 3 miles of trails, a great lawn, a fishing pier, pavilions, multipurpose practice fields, a cricket field and wildflower meadows on 64 acres. The lawn area will seat about 3,000, and other grassy areas can seat about 7,000 people during events, according to the city.
The $10.3 million project is funded through general obligation bonds, Type B Community Development funds, parkland dedication funds, utility funds and Texas Parks & Wildlife Department grant funds. Lakeline Park construction was part of the 2015 voter-approved bond.
