Plans
The Greenspace will be designated a Bird Sanctuary and certified as a Texas Wildscape through Texas
Parks and Wildlife Department. Over 50% of the plantings must be native flora to the state of Texas.

The Greenspace will have naturally meandering walkways that are six foot wide to allow room for residents to
walk side-by-side comfortably.

Water fountains will be placed near the entrances to the pathways. Some of the fountains will have doggie
fountains attached.

Trashcans will be placed where appropriate so that residents and any visitor can place their trash in the
receptacles and keep our Greenspace clean.

Benches, built using an Eagle Scout plan or donated by benefactors, will be placed where appropriate to
allow visitors to relax and observe their surroundings.

Picnic areas will be designated where appropriate and built with pavers. Picnic tables will be constructed
using the Eagle Scout plan or donated by benefactors. Trashcans will be placed nearby.

The following Garden Themes will be included:

crunch platforms constructed using the Eagle Scout Plan.
