Texas-side Parks and Rec Project Manager Keith Beason invites community members to join the discussion, emphasizing the importance of public input in creating a plan that reflects the needs and aspirations of the city.

The department has partnered with Norris Design, the firm behind Texarkana’s 2016 Comprehensive Plan. Specializing in urban design, landscape architecture, and sustainable solutions, Norris Design aims to create innovative and functional spaces for the community.

In addition to the meetings, an online survey will launch on the project website, txkparks.com, before the February meeting. Residents can share their ideas and feedback to help shape the master plan.
