The Chisholm Valley neighborhood has been seeing increased crime through graffiti and theft. Much of this has been centered around Frontier Park. Frontier Park is an older and poorly lit park, and in addition to being host to increased crime rates, it can also be dangerous to cross the street at night because of the darkness.
Investing in modern street lamps for Frontier Park will not only make crossing the street safer, it will also reduce crime in the area. Study after study has shown that well lit streets are safe streets. By investing in street lamps, we reduce the burden on our already over-taxed police, improve road safety, and help everyone feel safer again.
We urge the city of Round Rock to invest in safer streets by improving the street lamps in and around Frontier Park.

The public response has reached a level that necessitates a formal presentation to the City Council. I am currently finalizing a briefing document to attach to the petition data for our meeting with the Department of Public Works.

The park is pitch black at night and I honestly dont feel safe walking my dog down that block anymore. This is long overdue.
FIX THE LIGHTS. We have enough problems with vandalism already without making it easier for them to hide in the dark.
I am resident who’s home backs up to the park. These would be greatly helpful in deterring crime after hours in the park.
I have seen how street lamps helped in other places I have lived. Please allocate the funds to install street lamps in and near the park.
My great grand kids cannot even go there to play on the playground because it is too dangerous! Their mother and aunts used to be able to play there when they were small!
Lamps for safer streets and parks, please!!!
Please install lights in the park.
