As many of you know, Calhoun County purchased Green Lake and plans to develop a County park.  At this time, the Green Lake Advisory Committee is seeking input from the community and others on that project.  If you would like to help, please take the survey as explained below. Your answers are completely confidential.  You are not required to take the survey, but your participation would be appreciated.

Residents, visitors, and friends of Calhoun County:

In December 2012, Calhoun County purchased Green Lake, one of the largest freshwater lakes in Texas, to improve fish and wildlife habitat and to provide public recreational opportunities. The 6,400-acre property is made up of a large, shallow lake (approx. 4-6 feet deep), floodplain salt flats, and a small upland area that borders State Highway 35 and the Victoria Barge Canal. Since the property is mostly undeveloped, the Calhoun County Commissioners Court wants your help in determining how to develop this property into a new county park.

Can you take approximately 4 minutes to provide some input on the project?

By filling out this survey (https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/GreenLakeTX), you’ll help us understand what types of activities you’d like to do at the park, what sorts of facilities (fishing pier, campgrounds, trails, etc.) you’d like to see on the property, and how you think the County can best manage the property. Your input is very important as the County develops its plans for building this new county park.
