I land, and is now old field dominated by Johnson grass, Sor hum ha1_ e__ ense, pasture for grazing, still retaining some natural a prairie grasses; has been destroyed by construction; or is presently under cultivation. ; r The area set aside for the proposed bail fields is higher in elevation than the rest of the park and presents a good van- ? i i tage point to observo the rest of the park, This area has been I disturbed by construction and only small patches of ve e to g tion t and some larger areas of Johnson gross are . present. Due south' from the hill is the southern lake, It is fed by two small Intermittent streams. On both sides cf these streams are narrow bands of streamside forest, Trees present are Hackberry, ha Celtis iaevi ta, Cedar Elm, Ulmus crassr i iaa~ Cottonwood, LO-R.U_ %j lus deltoides, Black Willow, omi 5al_ix n~ i~ra, and Bois'd'Arc, Ma dura t -~C ~1 fern . aetween the two small i intermittent streams is a cultivated hay fiold (see park ma ' p).

The present tennis courts are now situated on an old field with a mixture of grasses r , with some small Red Cedars, Juniperus virainiana, The northern lake is north of the proposed two-lane road and east of the hill where the proposed ball fields will be located, Near the southwest corner of the lake on the slope from the'hill to the lake Is a mixed stand of Slash Pine, Pinus sp, and Bois d'Arc,, with Slash Pine dominating, Completely encircling the lake is old pasture` r3 ' with natural grasses present. Small Mesquite trees, Prosopis r; ulIfIora, are scattered throughout, These indicate that the area i as been h o vo rgra zed as do the presence of annual weedy species,.

The large amount of land available in a geograr phical'position accessible to the city residents is a major asset to the development of the park, F l The local area in which it is located had the following demo- iJ graphis and Socio-economic characteristics in 1970; j 6 ' i - 3 Socio-economic and Demographic Characteristics; Selected . 1970, Census Tract 204 Percent black population *In Table II man species of water fowl were included' because we Ei y • felt -theywould be drawn to the area now that the lakes are present, , , Persons per household 2.86 i percent under 18 years 29;01 Median school years completed 12,90 Children over born per 1,400 women, 35-44 years of age 21739 .00 Percent of households ppro- fessional or managerial 33,70 F, 6,391 .00 { Population Since 1970, this area has experienced atwenty-two percent _i increase in population associated with residential subdivision i However, the general development to the north of University Drive, nomic characteristics of the draws population have remain- ! socio eco j 1 ad as they were in 1970, Although the area east and south of i North 'Lakes has experienced recent grow+h,and development, the size j of the park and the number of streets t¢'inter it act as buffers for surrounding residential areas, ` Archaeological, Historical and Cultural Environmental COW - `lions - Standard archaeological survey techniques-were utilized in searching for signs of both prehistoric Indian and historic Anglo ! f' occupation of the development area. Particular attention was given to the sections of the `park which would undergo the most drastic ' alteration, such as the tennfs court complex, sports; fields, and playgrounds, 1 It was observed that as much as 40% of the area had already been severly altered through the construction of the two lakes in the ;southern part of the park, and the soil removal area3 along ' the northern end of the park, Whatever cultural resources existed 4 , j, , in these two sec ins have been obliterated by the atorementioned a , lFsn,a. f s I construction. Nothing of archaeological interest was noted during the reconnaissance and it is the opinion of the investigators that Is f unlikely that any resources will be disturbed by the proposed construction. This, however, does not preclude the discovery i-f of buried archaeolotlical remains during construction, In such an event, work should be stopped immediately and archaeologists contacted so that an evaluation might be made . s amid mitigating action taken. { l E . a, I it t , } S A k t t i.J ~tt t ] AY. 1 7 e f i r k 1 , i 1' l 41417 &.Ii'a III, Environmental Impact of the Proposed Action ! r In general, we foresee little if any overall negative impacts 3 of the proposed action on natural, socia-economic anc cultural, his- torical and archaeological conditions on the site of North Lakes park or in their immediate surroundings. Impact on the Natural Environment - This 348 acre area contains potentially the most sensitive natural habitat of the six park sites, i However, the area was modified by the construction of two impound- -i ments by the U.S. Soil Conservation Service. The area is presently i r^ good habitat for numerous animal species and attacts many species of birds. As the lakes fill more waterfowl will be attracted. The conversion from a disturbed prairie exosystem to both aquatic j i r and terrestrial ecosystems will increase the diversity of birds, ~ t amphibians and reptiles. Mowing and other activities connected with park maintenance will prob,b'ly cause displacement of gray fox and blacktaii jackrabbit that presently live on the site. Bobwhite quail and morning dove will also be displaced from the site unless large tracts of "managed" grass land is left, t..} Construction activities, depending on season and weather ` hf conditions, could contribute runoff turbidity to the ekes. How, ever, it is doubtful that the effects will be significant on l Y 4 - aquatic life now living in the lakes. i Impact on Socio-Economic Environment The development of }i „J extensive and diversified recreational areas will increase the pro- vision of rec~eatiofal services to the neighborhood as well as to the city as a whole, Development of North lakes will enhance the appear- ance of the. area and provide a large, accessible park for the City of , Denton, The lakes in the project will be of particular aesthetic attractiveness, picnic faCflitles and pavilions with nearby play- groun(I areas wiII diversify the park as a community rather than ~r ` l 1 yQ~yl t i 4 f t~ $ d t~ i i .SF~f~~. y:. i 1f: ti rre'ghborhood park.; +d~~ryn~ i;= Adverse impacts of the park includo the disruption of traffic ~ and increase in volume of traffic on already heavily travelled streets. Bonnie Brad had a 24-hour Lraffic .flow of 2,297 vehicles in 1975; University Urive - 9,767. Traffic on streets entering the E park wfi13 be increased substantially. t Tn general, we believe that the development o'f the six parks C wi11 have minima3 impacts 8n the natural and,socio-economic ;~?a ~ ' I a ~ conditions of Benton. 7he`increased.recreational facilities should' benefit the population of nenton, Traffic disruption dine to ; n ss construction wi11 be temporary and mihimal, Construction noise l ~ msy ba a factor, but no large scale earth moving, blasting, etc., E activities that create extremely unpleasant noises will occur..

Mitigating Measures Because most of the actions will have relatively little m- ` -pact on the natural and socio-economic environment, few mitigating measures can be offerod, Several areas should be maintained as managed wildlife habitat, f' A hood area would be the periphery area around the northern lake. IY The natural grasses` in the area provide food and protection for aM quail, dove and rabbits, Limited use of this area would not `dis- turb these animals too much. Vines and secondary growth around trees should be left intact, because they afford lizards and i nesting birds more protection and privacy. At present the Bermuda t ' grass on the dams is about two feet high, If left at this height, E it would provide food and protection for many species of birds, E Although construction activities, increased traffic flow, and noise will adversely impact the vicinity, these are short-term and unavoidable. Proper scheduling of activities will 'mitigate the i associated nuisance. Other mitigating factors include the size of the park and the sparsely settled population in close proximity to 4 "resident#al developments along Interstate 36 and the park. Recent nd north of University Drive are characterized by low density and ! high acreage. The use of access roads along 1-36 by construction Skp to will also -serveto minimize the nuisance factors associated with short-term construction t t i grow Unaboidable Adverse Effects We envision no significant unavoidable effects to the site I of the park or to its surroundings if the few mitigating measures suggested are followed, n { r:r ~a 1 ~ i : I A a~ i j r r 1l_ .t , d M o- V1. Relationship Between Local Short-Term Uses and Long-Term Productivity r If `left in his present conditions, the sandy loam area will succeed back to upland post oak forest, with the dominate vegetation being 'Post Oak and BiackJack Oak, The blackland and claypan , << areas would revert to prairie, Unfortunately, Johnson grass has `4& JP' li managed to become a dominate vegetation type in the area and will probably out-compete all other `species present, This is evident I by the presence of Johnson grass in almost all old fields around Denton County, In the area around the northern lake, enough native prairie grasses are present to predominate if left in its ' 1<! Present condition, Dominant vegetation in this area would I be Little Bluestem, Andropogon scoparius,, Indian Grass, Sorghastrum nutans, and Big Bluestem, Andropogon gerardi, Thus, without park developmer:t the site could succeed towards { a prairie community with possible wooded community on the hill. The j site would probably become a fair habitat for small wildlife includ- ing water fow1t'especially if managed properly. Anticipated changes in volume of traffic and factors associated with short-term construction activities will be minor compared with k the long-term benefits of a large, aesthetically pleasing, developed I~ recreational area serving the entire community, This area in an accessible location will better serve the recreational needs not f a only of the contiguous residential population but of the 'city as ? a whole, In the long-term, traffic flow will be increased on ma or streets leading to and from the park but the 'close proximity to existing thoroughfares - University Drive and interstate 35 - acts J to divert traffic from local residential areas anticipated in the future, The location of a park of this size will increase econo• , mic activity on West University Drive. The park site is currently ; { Q y , t ; ter: i i p ~ ,r i r # an open area which ctn hi developed with a minimum of short-term adverse impact. + In general, the long-term natural productivity of the sites S 11 would be insignificant, even if they were actively managed for wildlife and vegetation production, The same is true for agri- cultural and livestock production. Only the North Lakes area i can be considered in these production terms. However, it is unlikely that this araa would except development in the future. } establishment of the earl: will preclude development, thereby preserving an attractive 6rp6 n-space, The park development pro- ject appears to be farsight.od and not directed at short-term -,GIs, f of the environment, The `parks should have a long-term positive s impact on the youth of Denton. Thus, future productivity as well F 5.: as immediate use-benefit' nhould occur, { i 1 1 it I 13 t ; SOW , N VII, Irveversible and Irretrievable Commitments of Resources action are public-owned. AV land designated for the proposed None of the modifications to the existing park can be'cinceivad to be a irreversible or to represent significant irretrievable commitments { of natural or socioeconomic resources of the community, The site is oresentiv used as a park and this use has not committed area or site resources irreversibly or irretrievably. It is highly unlikely Ill I1 that the proposed action would do less than improve'site and srea ; resources. a The site for the additional park facilities will not be physi- cally modified in any way ,Jat will commit site or surrounding area resources irreversibly or irretrievably, In fact, North Lakeg park l j will be "preserved" from urban davelopmeot by the proposed action, It has already been "committed" by the construction of two lakes, i ~F The proposed action must be thought of as improving the, site from I its present condition. The o0 y exception is the minor loss of habitat for some wildlife, However, the site soon will be an "island" within an urban environment and probably would not support res'dent populations of larger fauna. -1 V, UJI t , 1 :f 4 } 14 1,4 1; F4 z V111. Alternatives to the Proposed Action`. raa.nt - The physical characteristics or the site strongly limit the number of reasonable major alternatives. Beside the "trivial" engin- eering options of specific site-location of playing fields, rest- rooms , etc,, the muJor alternative to the proposed action is`no- ti 4 ; action. No-action for the addition to the park would also preclude use of public lands for recreation. The benifits of recreational development of North Lakes, are many. They outweigh those which could derive from no-action, As energy becomes ever more limit- i; ing, local recreational demands will increase. The proposed action , 7 appears to anticipate this need, I-, i 1 , , 1 m KI~ SY r I , ' t , , i VA "I" *e ' i (1 ELI t } i : M.4i. • s , yl APPENDIX 1 I J S R ~ it fits r ~ tt r CEO 21 or t . t f r~ f t!
