FEATURED IMPACT COMING SOON Missouri City City Council approved a contract for design services for 4.94 acres of undeveloped parkland at FreedomTree Park . Following the Civil War, slavery was ocially put to an end in Texas on June 19, 1865 through a proclamation made in Galveston. According to “Historic Fort Bend: An Illustrated History” by Andrea Guy Halat, after the proclamation, slaves at the nearby Palmer Plantation gathered around the tree to learn that they were free, giving the Freedom Tree its name. The Missouri City City Council voted 6-1 during its April 18 meeting to execute a $342,990 design contract with engineering and architectural rm Hal Associates, which has led discussions with the city’s Freedom Tree Committee since 2020 to develop a conceptual design, according to agenda documents. Amenities that will be added to Freedom Tree Park include a gathering space and entry feature to the Freedom Tree, a vegetated buer, a stage, and an area for public art—as well as multiple pergolas and playgrounds. According to Jason Mangum, Missouri City’s director of parks and recreation, the total cost of designing and

implementing the project is $3.16 million. The contract will pay for the initial site investigation and base map preparation, permitting, bidding, geotechnical work and construction observation, according to agenda documents. Additionally, Mangum said city ocials do not foresee any signicant changes to the project’s design. “We’ve done a lot of legwork on this project and involved the community every step of the way. We’re fairly condent we’re not going to have a lot of changes [on] the design,” he said. Construction on Freedom Tree Park is expected to begin in early 2023 and last until early 2024, he said. 281-403-8500. www.missouricitytx.gov
