WHEREAS, The City of Kyle dedicated its new Heroes Memorial
Park with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on September 11, 2022; and
WHEREAS, Heroes Memorial Park is designed to be a space for
reflection, remembrance, and celebration of the military
personnel, law enforcement, firefighters, and other first
responders who have called Kyle and Hays County home; located
within the city's new Brick and Mortar District, the park features a
memorial garden, along with educational displays and other
activities for visitors of all ages; and
WHEREAS, Part of the first phase of the Brick and Mortar
District, Heroes Memorial Park is situated on a 138-acre mixed-use
development within the Plum Creek master-planned community, which
will also include an event lawn and a pedestrian and bike trail; the
district and its accompanying park were partially funded by a tax
increment finance district, and guidance for the project was
provided by the Kyle City Council and the Tax Increment
Reinvestment Zone No. 2 Board; and
WHEREAS, Americans owe a profound debt of gratitude to the
military and civilian personnel who put themselves in harm's way to
defend our safety, security, and freedom, and Kyle's new Heroes
Memorial Park is a fitting tribute to the service and sacrifice of
those courageous men and women; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas
Legislature hereby commemorate the dedication of Heroes Memorial
Park in Kyle and commend all those associated with this project for
their efforts in bringing it to fruition; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for the City of Kyle as an expression of high regard by the
Texas House of Representatives.
