City hosts Grove at Shoal Creek parks meeting
Friday, May 19, 2017 by Nina Hernandez
The city’s Parks and Recreation Department is working with the developers of the Grove at Shoal Creek, the West Austin planned unit development passed in December, to create the Public Parks Master Plan for the site. Certain community benefits are required in exchange for the planned unit development zoning, and the developer has pledged to set aside around 20 acres of parkland on the property. The public – which has more than enough experience engaging the city and developer on the subject – can learn more about the 16.25-acre Signature Park and other proposed amenities at the final community input meeting on May 30. It will be held at Bryker Woods Elementary School, 3309 Kerbey Lane, beginning at 7 p.m. Those in attendance can give feedback on a draft plan, which will then need approval from the director of the Parks and Recreation Department.
