Alma,
We do not have a resolution that designates Thweat Park as a park. As you know, the city purchased the property in 1991
for use as a fire station. In November of 1995 it was designated as " Thweat Park" by action of the City Council as indicated
in the attached minutes.
In 1996 we applied for matching funds through the Texas Parks & Wildlife Department for park development, however we
were not approved, and the park was never developed. I am attaching the resolution accompanying that application and
the subsequent rejection for your reference.
If you need any additional information, please let me know.

Thank you for this information. Please let me know when you get the
resolution so I can forward this to TxDOT.

Alma,
The deed you reference is for both parcels. I have attached a copy
below for reference. Please note the legal description describes Tract
I and Tract II. These two tracts make up the approximate 6 acre site.
We are currently reviewing our files to see if a resolution exists that
actually designates it as a park. I will forward our findings to you
next week.
Thanks for your assistance in this matter.

Keith/ David,
FHWA has commented on the Section 4(f) applicability to Thweatt Park.
Before they can make a final decision they need the two items:
1) FHWA would like a copy of the city resolution or other documentation
that designated that the two parcels to become Thweatt Park.
2) FHWA would like copies of the deeds for the two parcels that are now
Thweatt Park. We have a copy of the deed from Thomas J McHale (GF#
404053 stamped 91203 1494). We just need the deed for the second
parcel.
If you would please provide these two items, we will forward these to
FHWA and they can come to a final decision on the applicability of
Section 4(F) to Thweatt Park.
Sincerely,
Alma R. Canning
