The year 2019 was a good one for the City of Cedar Park. We made several exciting announcements, such as the selection of RedLeaf Properties as our Master Developer for the Bell Redevelopment Project, as well as big plans to bring the US Tennis Association Texas’ headquarters and facilities to Cedar Park to anchor the Indigo Ridge development. Lots of big projects got underway including completion of the design for the realignment of Bell Boulevard from Buttercup Creek Boulevard/Brushy Creek Road to Park Street. We also carried many things over the finish line, including the opening of Fire Station #5 to serve the fast-growing north-central and northeast areas of Cedar Park. We didn’t make big strides without you – more than 600 attended our A Day in the Bell District event in June, and we increased the number of signups for our Digital Water Metering Portal by 71 percent last year! We hope you’ll revel in these successes with us and check out our annual year in review, Cedar Park at a Glance.
