Over the past several years, the City has been acquiring properties in the Lakeland subdivision as they
have become available. As the City has acquired the properties, they have been integrated into the Fort
Worth Nature Center and Refuge as endorsed in the Nature Center Master Plan approved by City Council
on June 17, 2003 (M&C G-13998). The City has acquired 11 of the privately owned properties in the area
to date.
Staff has recently identified another property in the Lakeland Addition that is for sale. This property is an
improved residential lot. Integration of this property is essential for the future development of the Fort
Worth Nature Center and Refuge. The property is further described as follows:
