📰About Big Sky Estates Park Phase 3
Big Sky Estates Park Phase 3 is a new construction project located on Turtle Mountain Road in Ponder, Texas. The development covers a site of 990,685 square feet and is estimated to cost $3,200,000. This large-scale neighborhood park improvement is privately funded by the Big Sky Estates Homeowners Association Inc. for private use on private land within Denton County.
Scope and Design
The filing details a comprehensive set of amenities intended to enhance the residential community. The scope includes the construction of sidewalks, benches, and a dedicated shade structure. Recreational features include a playground facility and a splash pad for water-based recreation. A restroom facility is also part of the planned improvements, ensuring necessary infrastructure is available for park users.
Johnson Volk Consulting is the design firm of record for this project. The firm has registered six other projects with TDLR in recent years, ranging from amenity areas in Prosper to community parks in Burleson. The total value of those comparable filings is $7,571,696. This indicates a consistent pattern of working on community-focused developments across North Texas.
Timeline and Status
The project was registered with TDLR in November 2024, and plan review was completed in the same month. Construction was scheduled to begin in December 2024, with a planned completion date of December 2025. The registered accessibility specialist for the project is Jeffery L Kelley. Although the scheduled completion date has passed, TDLR has not yet recorded a final inspection, so the current state of the site is not confirmed in the public record.
In terms of scale, this project is significantly larger than the median size for new construction filings in Denton County, which is 8,040 square feet. The estimated cost is also above the county median of $900,000 for similar projects. The scheduled build window of 379 days is longer than the county median of 218 days, reflecting the complexity of the infrastructure and amenities being installed.
