The City of Fort Worth is the 13th largest city in the U.S. and the fastest growing among large cities. New residential development or an increase in density by redevelopment in existing neighborhoods creates the need for additional parkland and recreation facilities. The purpose of the Neighborhood and Community Park Dedication Policy is to ensure adequate public parkland and recreational facilities in the form of neighborhood and community parks are available to meet the fast pace growth and development needs in Fort Worth for both residents and visitors.
The information provided in this section is available to developers who want to develop and dedicate public parkland in accordance with the City’s policy.
