The details
According to a Dec. 19 release from city officials, they have started the master planning phase for Timberland Park, a neighborhood park that will be located at 4400 Keller Haslet Road.
One of the proposed elements is to create a loop trail for circulation around the park with programmed amenities across the site, according to the release.
Other possible amenities include:
- Benches along pathways
- Picnic tables and grill at a park shelter
- Trash cans
- Safety lighting at a park shelter and playground
- Bike racks
City officials will hold scheduled meetings open to the public in either January or February to nail down what amenities the park will have, according to the release.
The Phase 1 design of the project is expected to cost $659,133, with $300,000 coming from 2022 bond program and $359,133 coming from park dedication fees, per the city's website.
The park was dedicated in 2018 and was tabbed as a reserve park, meaning the park land has been queued for development by city officials.
The release states construction is expected to begin in late 2025.
