City Parks

Squiggly Park

Squiggly Park is now open for all of our citizens and their children to enjoy. This is a great park for a family picnic. You may bring your own portable BBQ Grill.

The citizens of the ‘Bay would like to express our gratitude to the Mayor and the entire City Council for our new park. We would especially like to recognize Council member Renee McWhorter. It was her hard work and dedication to this project that brought everything together. Thank you to all the businesses and persons who donated to the park and to all the hard working volunteers and City employee’s who put their time, effort and love into this project.

Pelican Bay Lakeside Park

The City of Pelican Bay which is located in Tarrant County, TX operates a boat ramp on Eagle Mountain Lake. There is no charge for residents of Pelican Bay and a small charge for non-residents. The launch fee is now collected at the City Hall.

Recent rains have brought the lake up to usable conditions again. As always, please use caution when launching boats.

Texas Regional Water District (TRWD) is constructing a 19.5 mile pipeline connection between Lake Benbrook and Eagle Mountain Lake.

Why is the Eagle Mountain Pipeline being built and where will the water come from?

The pipeline, which is scheduled for an early 2008 completion, is being built to meet the future water supply needs in rapidly growing northwest Tarrant County. The additional water will be pumped into Eagle Mountain Lake from TRWD’s two East Texas reservoirs, Cedar Creek and Richland-Chambers. Once completed, the pipeline will allow TRWD bring the lake as close to conservation level as possible in order to meet high summer demands on its water supply system.

Will the City of Fort Worth pipeline at Eagle Mountain Lake allow more water to be pumped out of the lake?

Yes, but the increase will only be equal to the amount of water pumped into the lake by TRWD’s new pipeline from Richland-Chambers and Cedar Creek Reservoirs. By using this imported water from East Texas, the City of Fort Worth can meet increased water demands in rapidly growing northwest Tarrant County without exclusively using water from the watershed of the West Fork of the Trinity River.

Pelican Bay gets its water from deep underground wells and does not draw from the Lake.

Thank you to the many businesses and volunteers who helped make Squiggly Park a reality.
