Lewisville’s recently adopted Healthy Infrastructure Plan aims to enhance residents’ quality of life and overall health.
The plan, also referred to as Explore More Lewisville, will guide the development and management of the city’s parks, trails and urban tree canopy for the next decade, according to Lewisville City Council’s Feb. 20 agenda item. An implementation action plan will guide future expenditures for parks and recreation, trails infrastructure, tree canopy investments and open space considerations with a specific focus on providing a quality park within a 10-minute walk of each resident.
“We’ve come up with an incredible plan that will help make sure that all of our residents have the best chance to live healthy lives,” Lewisville Parks and Recreation Director Stacie Anaya said during a Feb. 6 presentation.
The Lewisville Parks and Recreation Department began working on the development of a master plan in 2021. The three-year process culminated in the council’s vote to adopt the plan at the Feb. 20 meeting.
