The Cottonwood Shores City Council at its regular meeting on Thursday, April 7, voted to remove the BMX track from the city’s P-Squared Park after Texas Parks & Wildlife Department (TPWD) officials approved the amendment to the grant contract.
The city already has spent $6,000 to remove the tires around the track, said Mayor Donald Orr.
The council also approved spending up to $7,000 of the $15,000 in the parks and recreation commission budget on construction to get Noah Thompson Park into Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliance, avoiding a possible $1,000/day fine from the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR).
“We’re one step closer to finishing the parks and having them accepted by the TDLR,” Orr said.
