Staff presents revisions to trails master plan, adds loop connecting Country Club to Estates
Summary
City staff described proposed revisions to the trails master plan, including adding a west-side loop from West Lucas to Country Club to Estates, removing two north–south segments (Ingram and Allison), and noting that TxDOT work and grants will influence where sidewalks and trails are built.
City staff presented proposed updates to the trails master plan, describing a planning meeting with commission members and city staff that produced a revision adding a loop linking West Lucas Road to Country Club and Estates and removing two north–south connections on Ingram and Allison.
"We added the country club to Estates to make a full loop there," the staff member said, and explained that segments along TxDOT highways are expected to be completed as TxDOT improves those roads. The staff member noted a trail is currently being designed for West Lucas Road and that sidewalks already exist in front of commercial developments such as Walmart.
Staff characterized most other segments as conceptual or tied to grants and in various stages of planning or construction. Commissioners asked clarifying questions about specific alignments and whether proposed sidewalks were already in place. No formal action or vote on the master plan revision was recorded in the transcript excerpt.
Staff will continue design work on the West Lucas Road segment and coordinate with TxDOT and grant partners as plans advance; the commission received the update and no decision was recorded in the excerpt.
