Parks and Recreation to host Master Plan Public Input meeting on March 3
The City of Cleburne is embarking on the creation of a master plan, which will guide the future of Cleburne’s parks and recreation facilities for the next 10 years.

The Parks, Recreation, Trails, and Open Space Master Plan will outline the vision for the community’s park and recreation system, its goals, and possible projects for the future. The plan will include a vision for Lake Pat as well by incorporating and updating the Lake Pat Cleburne Master Plan, which the city adopted in 2009.

As part of this process, the city is seeking public input and invites the community for a guided exercise to get feedback about Cleburne parks from 6-7:30 p.m. on March 3 at the Cleburne Conference Center. Starting March 3, the city will also open a citizen survey.
