Neighbors,
We’ve scheduled a special meeting of the Barton Hills Neighborhood Association on Tuesday February 28, 2023 at 7:00 PM in the fellowship hall at St. Mark’s to discuss the proposed Zilker Park Vision Plan, and consider and vote on the attached resolution. Please plan to attend if you can.
This is a huge issue that has the potential to affect everyone in the neighborhood, regardless of whether or not you use Zilker Park on a regular basis. Our discussion got off to a good start at our January meeting, but we didn’t have enough time to cover everything, and we also didn’t have a resolution prepared yet. Larry Akers and David Weinberg have been hard at work since then, and the attached draft is the product of their efforts.
Please review it, discuss it, and comment on it here. We realize there are a lot of diverse opinions on this subject but hope we can reach a consensus that will provide feedback to the planners that will reflect what is important to as many of us as possible.
We don’t call special meetings very often, but the Vision Plan is currently making its way through the various city boards and commissions, and we really need to provide our input before the next BHNA membership meeting in April.
Thanks,
Stan Ostrum
BHNA VP and Acting President
