The gazebo at Dorothy Fielder Park recently had a makeover! All outside walls and trim were repaired and painted, new LED lighting and a commercial steel door installed. Also, the wooden handrails were replaced with wrought iron. Thank you to the Van Alstyne Community Development Corporation and the Parks and Recreation Board for your help improving our parks!
TXDOT has made a call for projects for the 2017 Transportation Set-Aside program that is used to fund alternative transportation projects for non-vehicular traffic. This program provides an 80-20 (federal/state- city) match for projects identified through the selection process.
The City of Van Alstyne submitted a request for funding in May 2017 and has successfully made it through the first few rounds of project selection. The city is proposing that Phase 2 of the Shared Use Path serve the new Bob and Lola Sanford Elementary School. The project includes approximately 1, 370 linear feet of 12’-wide concrete path from SH 5 (Waco St.) along the proposed roadway serving the elementary school that also includes a pedestrian activated crossing in front of the school.
The City of Van Alstyne City Council will conduct a Public Hearing at a special called meeting on Monday, September 25, 2017 at 6:30pm at the Van Alstyne Community Center located at 262 N Preston Ave to hear your comments for or against the proposed path.
