Turn Key

Ok, guys. Here's where we're at.

While I was on vacation, I received a very nice letter from Mr. Carter P. Smith, Executive Director, TPWD. He went into great detail concerning the plans for Cleburne State Park, the recent history concerning efforts to get the work done and how funding is managed in all Texas State Parks. I found that his letter satisfied all of my questions and I am letting the matter rest for the time being. I have sent letters and copies to Mr. Smith, State Representative Zedler and Officer Park informing them of my intention.

As I mentioned in a prior post, after I sent my original letter of September 26, TPWD placed bid requests for the needed work at Cleburne State Park. If you have taken the time to look at these requests you will have seen that the plans are very extensive, involving not only the Park Store but also the Group Camp Area. It is my understanding that there have been four (4) bids submitted by area contractors and the TPWD is in the process of evaluating these at this time. I intend to continue to watch this process and keep close tabs on the work as it progresses.

At this time, I think we can call this matter "closed" and look forward to an improved Cleburne State Park! Thanks for all your help and support and as always,

Happy Camping!
