Capital Project Request

Department: PARKS AND COMMUNITY SERVICES Date Prepared: April 4, 2024
Submitted By: DUANE STRAWN Date Completed:
Project Title: PARKS AT TEXAS STAR SOUTH IMPROVEMENTS
Project Type: PARKS/ RECREATION Sub - Type: PARK IMPROVEMENTS

Project Code: PR2508 Priority: A
COUNCIL AUTHORIZATION:
November 12, 2024: Authorized the City Manager to execute an architectural services contract with Williams
Tharp Architects for the design of the new restroom facility at the Parks at Texas Star South. The estimated
expenditure is $ 57, 500.

RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS AND/ OR MASTER PLAN:
Since the construction of Legends Field in 2017, we have received numerous requests for a restroom facility to
serve that portion of the Parks at Texas Star facility. In addition, the removal of the batting cages has created a
large open space that can be redesigned to better meet the needs of the Parks at Texas Star facility as well as
participants in league and tournament ballgames.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The project scope includes an additional restroom facility to service the east end of the Parks at Texas Star South
Sports Complex and design services to redevelop the former batting cage area at Parks at Texas South with
recreational and/ or passive activities.

PROJECT SCHEDULE:
Began Design: January 2025
Anticipate Design Complete: June 2025
Anticipate Begin Restroom Construction: July 2025
Anticipate Restroom Construction Complete: October 2025

JUSTIFICATION:
There is a lack of restroom facilities on the east end of a very busy athletic complex and the installation of a
restroom facility would be a major benefit to customers. Also, since the batting cages at Parks at Texas Star
South were removed, this project will allow for re -purposing of this area with recreational activities.
