City allocates bond funds for new trail projects and park enhancements
The Flower Mound Community Development Corporation meeting on June 24, 2025, focused on several key infrastructure projects aimed at enhancing the town's recreational facilities and trail systems. The discussions highlighted the funding strategies for various projects, primarily utilizing bond funds instead of the previously planned 4B funds.

One significant project discussed was the design and construction of a new trailhead at Cane Falls, located near the new fire station. This facility will include a kiosk, water station, and parking area, providing residents with access to local trails. The trailhead is expected to connect with the La Estancia development and the Cane Falls trail system.

Additionally, the meeting outlined plans for multiple trail projects funded by the bond initiative. Five trail projects were identified, including a trail along Highway 407, a connection from 2499 to Gaston Park, and a new alignment for the Kirkpatrick Trail. The Kirkpatrick Trail project aims to create a scenic, off-street trail through wooded areas, enhancing safety and accessibility for pedestrians and cyclists.

Other trail improvements discussed include upgrading existing trails along 3040 to ensure a minimum width of 10 feet and rerouting a trail from Shadow Ridge Park to Shadow Ridge Middle School to avoid private property and enhance safety.

These initiatives reflect Flower Mound's commitment to improving community infrastructure and promoting outdoor activities, ensuring safer and more accessible recreational spaces for residents. The next steps will involve finalizing project designs and timelines for construction.
