2018 Leon Valley Park Survey Results
 
Thank you to all that participated in our recent Park Survey request. The response was great and the information collected will assist our Park Commissioners in revising the Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Master Plan and in prioritizing resident requested improvements over the coming years. This also helps the City Council budget accordingly. Some of the suggestions for improvements are actually going to be installed this fiscal year. Improvements for FY 2019 include:
 
  • Shade structure for Raymond Rimkus Park playground
  • Benches and mile markers around walking paths at all parks
  • Rework walking paths so they are smoother
  • Replacing water fountains, some picnic tables
  • Playground, picnic shelter, walking path, benches, and recycle bins at The Ridge at Leon Valley Park (end of Grass Hill Drive)
  • Outdoor fitness equipment at Old Mill Park
  • More trees and other plantings at all of the parks
 
Other improvements will have to be budgeted in future years, but we now know what you would like to enjoy at each park. The full summary of the 2018 Park Survey may be viewed on our website at http://www.leonvalleytexas.gov/news_detail_T5_R740.php For questions, please contact Public Works at (210) 681-1232.

The City of Leon Valley is bringing new life and enforcement to the ON IT  program. All City Departments are teaming together to bring more attention and compliance to your neighborhood issues and concerns. The intention of the   ON IT  program is to have a direct means of reporting your community concerns regarding streets, sidewalks, abandoned homes, loose or dead animal reports, permitting concerns, noise or other neighborhood nuisances and much more.

The goal is to ensure that City service requests and information is handled, as promptly as possible, with a high level of customer service. Report it and an  ON IT team member will respond as quickly as possible.

Helpful Safety Tips

5 tips to prevent package theft this holiday season

Neighbors, We're entering the biggest shopping season of the year. Unfortunately this is also prime season for package thieves. The Leon Valley Police Department reminds you as you're making online purchases over the next few weeks, follow these tips to avoid becoming the victim of package theft.

 1. Sign up for delivery alerts so you know when your delivery is scheduled - and when the package has been delivered. 
 2. If you're not able to be home when a package will be delivered, ask a trusted neighbor to hold it for you. 
 3. If possible, require a signature for all deliveries.
 4. Consider shipping packages to your place of work or use the ship to store option. 
 5. Be a good neighbor! If you see a package on your neighbor's doorstep, reach out and ask if they would like you to hold it until they are home. Better yet, if    you work from home, post on Nextdoor and offer to allow your neighbors to send their packages to your house. 

 If you do have any packages stolen, first contact us and then check with your neighbors on Nextdoor to see if they saw anything suspicious. Do you have any tips that we missed? If so, please share them with your neighbors by replying to this post.
