The Town of Little Elm has registered plans with the state for a new parking lot at 701 W. Eldorado Parkway, the address the town uses for Little Elm Park, with construction scheduled to run from Oct. 12 through Nov. 30.
The filing, entered Oct. 15 with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, describes the job as new construction of a parking lot covering 30,000 square feet. It puts the estimated cost at $50,000, paid with public funds, and lists the town as owner. Westwood Professional Services of Fort Worth is the design firm.
Under the state rule cited on the filing, the town must get an accessibility inspection of the lot within a year after construction is finished. The record does not say how many spaces the lot will hold or which part of the park it will serve.
Council heads out of Town Hall twice
Two other notices posted this week put the Town Council in less familiar settings over the next 10 days.
On Oct. 22 at 6 p.m., council members and the town's appointed boards and commissions are scheduled to hold a joint retreat at Tender Smokehouse, 100 Hardwicke Lane. The agenda lists a public comment period followed by a retreat presentation, with no action items.
