Staff reports progress on splash pad and park projects; ribbon-cutting delayed by weather

Paddock (Downtown Improvement) Board · June 12, 2026

Summary

Staff told the Paddock board that splash-pad work at Breezy Hill is moving but weather delayed a ribbon-cutting; playground equipment and other park projects are scheduled for upcoming months and design work is planned for Stallings Park.

Development services staff updated the board on neighborhood park capital projects and said weather and scheduling issues have delayed some planned openings but that work is ongoing.

Raylan said contractors worked through weekends to make progress on the Breezy Hill splash pad but that rain had pushed some finishing tasks. "The weather has not been very kind to us during this process," Raylan said, and staff therefore did not plan a ribbon-cutting the same day. Staff reported playground equipment would be delivered in the next few weeks and that Polk Street work and planned designs for Arley Watt and Stallings Park were moving toward future procurement and grant stages. The swimming pool is open and the new concession stand recently had a successful ribbon cutting, staff added.

Board members asked about schedule specifics and possible grant timelines; staff said the City expects to go to bid for some items in July and that Texas Parks & Wildlife grant timelines are being coordinated for 2028 construction windows.
