H.R. No. 641 |
|
||
WHEREAS, The City of Kyle dedicated its new Heroes Memorial | ||
Park with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on September 11, 2022; and | ||
WHEREAS, Heroes Memorial Park is designed to be a space for | ||
reflection, remembrance, and celebration of the military | ||
personnel, law enforcement, firefighters, and other first | ||
responders who have called Kyle and Hays County home; located | ||
within the city's new Brick and Mortar District, the park features a | ||
memorial garden, along with educational displays and other | ||
activities for visitors of all ages; and | ||
WHEREAS, Part of the first phase of the Brick and Mortar | ||
District, Heroes Memorial Park is situated on a 138-acre mixed-use | ||
development within the Plum Creek master-planned community, which | ||
will also include an event lawn and a pedestrian and bike trail; the | ||
district and its accompanying park were partially funded by a tax | ||
increment finance district, and guidance for the project was | ||
provided by the Kyle City Council and the Tax Increment | ||
Reinvestment Zone No. 2 Board; and | ||
WHEREAS, Americans owe a profound debt of gratitude to the | ||
military and civilian personnel who put themselves in harm's way to | ||
defend our safety, security, and freedom, and Kyle's new Heroes | ||
Memorial Park is a fitting tribute to the service and sacrifice of | ||
those courageous men and women; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas | ||
Legislature hereby commemorate the dedication of Heroes Memorial | ||
Park in Kyle and commend all those associated with this project for | ||
their efforts in bringing it to fruition; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
prepared for the City of Kyle as an expression of high regard by the | ||
Texas House of Representatives. | ||
