Flower Mound's Community Development Corporation has taken a significant step forward in enhancing Twin Coast Park, as discussions during the June 24, 2025, meeting revealed plans for a comprehensive Phase 2 development. This initiative aims to improve facilities and safety for park visitors, addressing both recreational needs and flood management concerns.
The proposed upgrades include renovations to the camp store and office spaces, the addition of an indoor rental area, and the creation of scenic overlooks. These enhancements are designed to enrich the visitor experience while also providing essential amenities, such as restrooms for primitive campers.
A critical aspect of the project focuses on improving safety during flood events. Currently, the park must evacuate visitors when the lake, which serves as a flood control measure, rises rapidly. Recent weather patterns have shown that even a small amount of rain can significantly increase water levels, posing risks to campers. To mitigate this, the plan includes raising the entrance road and installing a culvert, allowing visitors to remain in the park longer during adverse weather conditions.
Funding for these improvements will be sourced from previously approved debt, ensuring that the project can move forward without delay. The enhancements at Twin Coast Park are expected to not only improve recreational opportunities but also enhance safety for all visitors, reflecting the community's commitment to providing quality outdoor spaces. As the project progresses, residents can look forward to a revitalized park that meets both their leisure and safety needs.
