Resident asks Round Rock to change Kensington Park mowing pattern, proposes small disc‑golf installation
Summary
A Kensington neighborhood resident asked the council to alter mowing patterns at Kensington Park to reduce erosion and wildlife harm and suggested adding a small disc‑golf course; staff said city manager's office will follow up.
During citizen communication, Winston Denny, a Kensington neighborhood resident, told the city council that current mowing patterns in the park's creek area are causing erosion and killing wildlife and asked staff to change mowing patterns to allow grass to grow in a low area.
Denny, who said he walks the park twice daily, also suggested the park could accommodate a five‑ or six‑hole disc‑golf layout and asked how to pursue that idea. He said he would be willing to help with the project but was unsure of the permitting or red‑tape required.
Mayor Craig Morgan said the council could not respond substantively because the comment was not on the posted agenda but that he would have the city manager follow up and that staff had Denny's contact information.
No formal action or vote was taken; council directed staff to follow up with the resident and to investigate the mowing and park‑use questions.
