Agenda - City of Dallas

Exhibit A - Davis Garden TIF District
FY 2011 Annual Report
Provide opportunities for needed basic retail such as grocery stores, national
tenants and diversify retail shopping.
There is an ongoing effort to provide opportunities that address the basic
retail needs of the District’s residents and occupants.
Improve recreational opportunities and connections to City trails and open space
within the District while providing better connections to County trails and other
recreational amenities in the area.
The following progress has been made since the District’s creation:
– The Twelve Hills Nature Center, Inc.’s Urban Prairie Trailhead
project was approved by City Council on October 14, 2009.
– Work was completed on 3/4 mile within the District along the
Coombs Creek Trail (along Kessler Parkway from Sylvan Avenue
to the tennis courts at Stevens Park Golf Course). The project was
funded by the 2006 Bond Fund program.
– Approximately $8 million in upgrades was approved for Stevens
Park Golf Course by City Council on November 10, 2010. The
project is being subsidized by several funding sources including the
2003 and 2006 Bond Fund programs. The upgrades are
substantially completed with finalization of all work scheduled for
the first quarter of FY 2012.
