PROGRAM NARRATIVE
CITY OF PARIS, TEXAS
General Information;
Applicant:
City of Paris, Texas
Project name:
Heritage Park
Prepareres name:
Terry Townsend, CLP, CPSI
Director of Parks and Recreation
Description of Proposed Project
The City of Paris proposes the construction of park related facilities on property donated to the city
by Dr. William deG. Hayden MoO.. The property is located inside the City of Paris, Lamar County
and the State of Texas. The property consist of approximately 3.394 acres ofIand. Additions shall
include a one half mile walking track, a picnic pavilion, parking, a crape myrtle garden, a fenced
playground for 3-5 year old's, a children's zero depth water playground and sidewalks. Also,
included in the walking track will be benches, tables and historical markers located every 100 foot
which delineate historical facts in Lamar County History.
The City of Paris will propose to act as contractor for this project, purchasing equipment and
installing it with City forces wherever possible.
Objectives and Need for Assistanee
Our Park MasterPlan was developed in 1995, and revised in 1998. A series of public hearings were
held to receive citizen input concerning parks and recreational needs in the City of Paris.
Acquisition of additional parks and recreational land through dedication or purchase is listed as a
priority for future development.
This donated property has been appraised at $ 62,200. Our intention is to use the value as matching
funds to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department for the development of the park.
The property is located adjacent to the Santa Fe Frisco Train Depot Transportation Museum that is
being refurbished today by a 1.2 million dollar grant from the TX-DOT enhancement program.
Additionally, the other side of the property is owned by the Lamar County Historical Society
Museum Project which is also under renovation with private funds, We hope the park will tie the
two facilities together and complete the beautification project.
Projeet Action Plan
Assuming funding by the end of February, and an executed grant agreement is returned to the Texas
Parks and Wildlife Department by April 30, 2000, the City of Paris, would begin construction during
the early part of summer 2000.
The City of Paris has its funds in the bank now.
Source of Local Match and Relationship between other Federal or State Assistance
In anticipation of developing this park, Paris has already set aside funds for the project. The City
of Paris assures that fifty percent ofthe project cost will be covered.
No other State or Federal assistance for this -project is contemplated. None has been applied for.
The City intends to use City forces when possible.
Maintenanee and Operation A~reement
The City of Paris through its Parks and Recreation Department will perform all maintenance needs
for the entire park in the future.

ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
CITY OF PARIS, TEXAS
Applicant:
City of Paris, Texas
Project Name:
Heritage Park
Preparer's Name:
Earl Smith, P.E., City Engineer
Terry Townsend, Director of Parks and Recreation
Deseription of Proposed Project
The Union Pacific Railroad recently owned the property before it was sold to the current owner
William deG. Hayden, M.D. The property is located inside the City of Paris, Lamar County and
the State of Texas. The property consist of approximately 3.394 acres of land. The applicant
proposes to construct park related facilities in the area. Additions shall include a one half mile
walking track, a picnic pavilion, parking, a crape myrtle garden, a fenced playground for 3-5 year
oIds and a childrens zero depth water playground.
Description of Site and Environment
The site is approximately 3.394 acres ofland. The property is identified as being 3 parcels ofland
out ofthe Asa Jarman Survey, A-479, Lamar County, Texas, and being situated within the city limits
of the City of Paris, Lamar County, Texas, and containing a called 147,834 square feet ofland. The
site is bordered on the east by the Lamar County Historical Society Museum, on the north by
Kaufman Street, on the south by Shennan Street, and on the west by the Union Pacific Railroad
property. The site has a shallow drainage ditch running north to south through the property.
Environmental Cheeklist
The environmental checklist has been completed and is attached.
Flood Plains and Wetlands
There are no streams across or adjacent to the property. The property is not shown to be in any
federally designated flood plain or flood way or flood way fringe for the 100 to 500 year floods.
There are no known wetlands. The soils, plant life, and hydrology are not wetland indicative. There
are no bogs, swamps, depressions, marshes, ponds, sloughs, mud flats or other surface features
which could be interpreted under any definition to be statutory wetland.
Environmental Impacts of the Proposed Proieet
The following long and short term environmental effects were noted during the engineers study of
the property,
1. Land Uses. The property has not been utilized for any purposes other than green space
owned by the railroad company. The development of this park will insure for years to come
that public park use will prevail and open space maintained. The development of this park
should have no adverse effect on residential or commercial areas surrounding the park.
2. Fish and Wildlife. The property does not contain any stream beds or open bodies of water
to support fish. Improvements should not alter any existing bird nesting or squirrel habitat.
3. Vegetation. Geology. Soils. and Mineral Resources. Vegetation on the site is limited to
naturally occurring and limited urban lawn grasses such as common Bermuda grass. Soils
on this site are the Annona and Freestone, loamy soils with slopes of 1 to 4 percent and
ranging 60 to 75 inches in thickness. It has a low permeability and low pH. While the
surface soil is low shrink-swell, the soils below 9 inches are highly expansive and corrosive
to metals. It is not highly erodible. There are no known mineral resources under the
property and no known outstanding mineral rights.
This project does not require the removal of substantial trees. Likewise, grass will only be
disturbed in the construction of the site itself and not over the entire site.
4. Air and Water Quality. Water Resources/Hydrololi!v. Paris is not a non-attainment area as
defined by EPA. Air quality is quite good and restrictions on outdoor activities would be
extremely rare. The project will have little or no effect on air quality. Cook stoves used for
picnicking will be confined to the post mounted, narrow grill variety which limits the size
a fire can be built. There are no known industrial polluters nearby whose exhausts will have
any potential for clouding the site. The project will have no significant effect on ground
water in the area. The project will have very limited effect on surface water hydrology.
No surface will be disturbed that is not scheduled for construction. During dry, windy
conditions, the contractor (or City) will be required to sprinkle for dust control. The
specifications will call for replacement of ground cover as soon as construction allows.
5. Historic Archaeological and Cultural Resources. There are no known buried archaeological
or historic sites. There are no known structures or foundations on the site. There are no
known historic markers or designated dwellings or other sites within a quarter mile of the
site.
6. Transportation! Access to the Site and Within the Area. Transportation to the site will be
by motor vehicle, bicycle, or walking generally. There are paved roads in all directions from
the site. The construction of this facility will not adversely increase traffic. Concrete
sidewalks to the picnic facility and playground will make the site handicap accessible. There
is no significant public transportation in Paris which will be affected.
7. Consumption of Energy Resources. The lighting fixtures will be selected for their low
energy use. For instance, metal halide or high pressure sodium will be selected over quartz
lamps because of their energy efficiency. Area flood lighting will be kept minimal. Timers
will be used to reduce lighting use.
8. Socio-Economic Effects. This project will enhance recreation facilities available to nearby
low to moderate income neighborhood.
Unavoidable Adverse Impaets.
No adverse impacts concerning this project are known.
