From Wilcounty Line, September 10, 2008...
In November 2006, the voters of Williamson County approved a $22 million park bond to be used for the purchase of new parkland and open space as well as improvements to parks. The county is completing the purchase of the second piece of parkland recommended by the 2006 Park Bond task force.
The first parkland purchase was approved in November 2007. It is 348 acres of land on SH 29 two miles east of Jonah. The land is on the San Gabriel River with beautiful bluffs and pecan groves. The second parkland purchase is 1,011 acres of land fronting on CR 282 in southern Liberty Hill. It also has South San Gabriel River frontage and beautiful hill country views.
Master plans for both parks will be developed in the future.
