Kerrville Parks in Flood Recovery | El Paso News

Published 1 week, 2 days ago
Description

Kerrville’s parks are still reeling from another devastating summer flood, forcing delays on major renovations and shifting priorities to safer, river-free zones. After last year’s cleanup was erased by this year’s flood, Guadalupe Park’s reopening is now further delayed, while Louise Hays Park’s makeover is on hold. City officials are now questioning whether rebuilding in flood-prone areas is wise, especially after two years of repeated damage. But there’s hope: Kerrville-Schreiner Park remains open for mountain biking, and a $9 million pledge from the Community Foundation will help restore trails and parks. For now, river access is restricted for safety, but most parks are still accessible — just not the ones closest to the water.
