On Tuesday, April 10, the Grand Prairie Park Board will conduct a public hearing to obtain citizen comments and requests for improvements to Grand Prairie’s oldest park – Turner Park.

Dunaway Associates, a consulting firm, has been contracted to develop a conceptual development plan based on site conditions, current and historical recreation trends, citizen input, and staff recommendations. The park’s natural topography and native vegetation provides a unique character to this major city park, and the staff welcomes citizen input on what improvements they would like to see developed.
