Sports park renovation in nal stretch

BY CODY THORN

Construction crews fanned out across Keller Sports Park in late December as the city moved forward with a $40.8 million renovation. The work is transforming the complex into a local sports destination designed to elevate family life for Keller residents. Funded primarily through certicates of obligation backed by Keller Development Corp. sales tax revenue, the project will unveil 12 renovated baseball and softball elds and expand facilities for lacrosse, equestrian and soccer competitions set to debut this spring. As of Jan. 20, all but ve elds have been nished and can be utilized. The overhaul also includes a $15 million , privately funded City Sports complex adjacent to the park. The complex is part of a public-private partnership with the city designed to attract tournaments, athletes and visiting families.

Keller Sports Park is being revitalized with up-to-date elds and new roads. Work will be completed this spring. (SkyEyes/Community Impact) See a detailed map inside 14

North Texas universities to reduce maternal morbidity rates

Dallas counties with assistance from every major health system in North Texas, according to a news release. Some participating systems include Baylor Scott & White and JPS Health network. The background The first initiative launched in spring 2025 to address blood transfusions, which officials said was the most common obstetric complication. “We found that handing [an over-the-counter] bottle of iron to women during their prenatal visit, rather than recommending that they purchase it on their own, reduces the risk of anemia during delivery, pregnancy, improves health outcomes and reduces symptomatic anemia postpartum by one third,” Catherine Spong, a UT Southwestern professor and the chair of obstetrics and gynecol- ogy, said. The accelerator will officially start in January 2026, with initial impact results expected to be released in mid- to fall 2026.

A new partnership between Texas Christian University and the University of Texas Southwest- ern Medical Center was announced at the TCU campus Nov. 17 to help combat maternal morbidity rates through the North Texas Maternal Health

Key facts and figures The Tarrant County Maternal & Infant Health Coalition, where the accelerator originated, has previously found: 26.8 deaths per 100,000 live births in Texas and 23.3 in Tarrant County from 2016 to 2020

Accelerator. In a nutshell

The $25 million accelerator, raised by eleven partners across North Texas, will primarily focus on reducing obstetric complications, or health problems during pregnancy, childbirth or post- partum, by more than 20% over three years and rewarding maternal health improvements through sustainable incentives. “Keeping all of our mothers healthy requires our health care system to coordinate in some new ways,” said Cameron Combs, senior director of Child Poverty Action Lab and the event emcee. Officials said data gathered through the part- nership will come from patients in Tarrant and KELLER - ROANOKE - NORTHEAST FORT WORTH EDITION

SPORTS PKWY.

The plans for renovating Keller Sports Park started in 2021 when a task force formed to discuss transforming the three baseball elds that were constructed in the 1970s. The task force recommended signicant renovations and updates in March 2022. Fields for soccer, football, lacrosse and rugby followed, but Director of Community Services Cody Maberry said the current renovations are the rst major work on the park since 2004. Mayor Armin Mizani said the updates were needed. He said the park was once a “destination” that had been passed over by surrounding communities’ complexes. “In my rst strategic planning session as mayor [in 2021], we set a vision to be Texas’ most family- friendly city and set the renovation of the Keller Sports Park as a priority that would benet area families for generations to come,” Mizani said. Park changes include converting baseball elds to turf inelds, updating the multipurpose eld into two baseball elds, adding a Miracle League Field for players of all abilities and adding a splash pad.

The fees, which range from $50-$250 per hour, will cover costs like electricity and janitorial services. Rachel Reynolds, Keller’s communication and public engagement manager, said a 15-year debt payment for $28 million of the project started in scal year 2023-24 and will run through the 2037-38 scal year. The remaining $12 million for the park comes from various city funds, including the Keller Development Corp.’s sales tax revenues, water and wastewater, and parks. KDC uses the city’s 0.5% sales tax revenue for park development, part of the 2% city sales tax divided up for general fund, KDC, streets and crime control, according to the city website. The original cost of the project was $30 million, according to previous reporting. The splash pad, replacing playground equipment and adding stor- age increased the overall cost by nearly $11 million.

$20M

The park will debut the Victory Field North and Victory Field South baseball elds this spring after a ribbon-cutting ceremony was pushed back from January to April, Reynolds said. Construction of City Sports is expected to be completed in late 2026, a ling with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation states. Keller Sports Association president Je Burchbach said he sees the renovations and expansion as an opportunity to invest more into coach and player development. The KSA board hired an education director, who will oversee all player and coach development in the organization starting in September. “I’m proud of the investments we’ve made and look forward to seeing how the new park will support and inspire our young athletes,” Mizani said.

76 Steakroom oers locally sourced BBQ, ne dining A recent merge between a Keller barbecue joint, Outpost 36, and a traditional grill house, Horizon 76, has created a unique dining experience where customers can choose counter or table service. The merger ocially happened in October and the newly minted 76 Steakroom held its grand opening Nov. 6. was a signicant cost for next door,” Polk said. While the businesses kept the Outpost 36 name, the new ne dining experience is named the 76 Steakroom as a reference to Horizon 76. The menu includes premium Wagyu and grass-fed steaks.

Polk said some of the meats sold at the restau- rant’s on-site meat market, Outpost 76, come from his ranch. The market also sells tallow, which is used to replace cooking with oil or corn syrup. “When you cook in tallow, it’s the most natural type of cooking you can do,” Polk said. Having the meat market on location was always part of the plan for the restaurant, Polk said. The market has been open since July 2024.

“It’s just taking two dierent back rooms, going from an only counter service [restaurant] to table service,” Outpost 36 and Horizon 76 owner Chris Polk said. A new chapter Polk said he merged the two businesses for economic reasons. “Why have two stores next to each other? There
