KYLE — The heavily-discussed Kyle Sportsplex will be moving forward with a new $161.9 million outdoor site master plan, following approval at the July 16 Kyle City Council meeting, which was delayed a day, due to bomb threats at city hall. Additionally, residents spoke against a potential Kyle Police Department surveillance system.
According to Parks and Recreation Director David Lopez, the purpose of the master plan is “to provide site guidelines driven by community needs and input,” as 1,400 surveys revealed that residents stated that they desired more outdoor sports amenities, as well as indoor sports, fitness and recreation amenities, though they put an emphasis on it being available for strictly Kyle residents first and foremost.
Mark Maldonado of Urban Alchemy Collective then presented what Lopez described as a Kyle-centric sportsplex master plan.
