TRWD - Trinity Lake Project
| Summary:
A public planning process conducted between 2001 and 2003 produced the Trinity River Vision Master Plan, a comprehensive vision for 88 miles of the Trinity River and its major tributaries in the greater Fort Worth area. This planning process was a collaborative effort led by the Tarrant Regional Water District, Streams and Valleys, Inc., the City of Fort Worth, Tarrant County, and the US Army Corp of Engineers. In October 2003, the City of Fort Worth adopted the Trinity River Vision Master Plan and incorporated it into the City’s Comprehensive Plan.
Central to the Trinity River Vision are flood control infrastructure improvements that will protect the central city and help foster the development of an urban waterfront district called Trinity Uptown. The Trinity Uptown Plan, released in 2004, proposes an urban lake and a publicly accessible waterfront surrounded by vibrant, mixed-use neighborhoods. The redevelopment of this area will increase the City of Fort Worth’s tax base by bringing interest and investment back to the central city and encourage citizens to live, work, play, and learn in this urban setting. Development standards and guidelines specifically tailored for Trinity Uptown are necessary to achieve this vision. |
