The document is a draft resolution by the Commissioners Court of Willacy County, Texas adopting the 2010-2020 Parks, Recreation and Open Space Master Plan. The resolution recognizes the need for the master plan to provide goals, assessments, standards, recommendations and strategies for park and recreation facilities over the next ten years. It notes that public input was gathered through surveys and meetings. The resolution adopts the master plan as an guidance document and does not commit the county to specific funding levels.
5. Monitor the people who attend the parks and take down buildings that are no longer in use, to make space for more parks or recreational opportunities to be made.
6. Keep the Port of Mansfield Cut in the Jetties dredged, and provide access.
7. HAVE HANDICAP ACCESS AND HAVE PROGRAMS TO AID IN THEIR MOBILITY IN AND AROUND RECREATIONAL PLACES.
17. Iwould like to see a place to play horseshoes. Maybe a small pond in the park with a fountain in the middle and benches or tables around it so that our parents and grandparents can sit around and talk ,play dominoes,or just sit and enjoy the view and the sounds of the water and birds(nature). I think they would enjoy that ,heck even I would.
18. Most seniors go to watch children, grandkids at sports events and for exercise most walk, run or ride bikes.
29. I believe in making the setting neutral for all to enjoy. And I know of many senior citizens who attend games and at times it is difficult for them to find a path to get to the bleachers. They are also in need of handrails and updated restrooms.
30. I feel we need an area for water aerobics, as it would help seniors citizens with joint and weight problems.
51. Now that the governments are giving us an opportunity to decide if we want these things like a park here in our county that why people should take advantage of this opportunity so the government now that we care about this program and really give us the programs we want.
