North Lakes Tennis Center
May 2022 — On February 15, 2022, the City of Denton executed a contract with North Rock Construction, LLC, to construct tennis and pickleball courts at North Lakes Park. This project includes twelve (12) tennis courts and eight (8) pickleball courts. Different scopes of the project will include the closure of streets or trails. Parks staff will provide notice of those closures and provide temporary plans that impact access and parking.
The current project features the following items depicted in the image below: Base, Alt 1, Alt 2, and Alt 3. The courts labeled future will be identified in a different phase.

Sequoia Park
In 2021, the Parks and Recreation Department started the community engagement process to improve Sequoia Park. Through a series of meetings, staff received feedback to incorporate a playground, install sidewalk connections from the cul-de-sacs of the surrounding neighborhoods, and add a pavilion to the park. To fund this project, the City of Denton submitted an application for a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program that supports community development activities to build stronger and more resilient communities. Parks and Recreation was awarded a grant for the amount of $119,190, but due to the increase of costs the project needed to be broken up into phases. This led to the PARD submitting an application for 2022 CDBG program and was able to receive an award of $208,800.
The first phase of this project included the 2-3 year old play structure and connections of the cul-de-sacs to the park trail. This was completed July 2022.
The second phase includes the 5-12 year old playground structure and pavilion. In March 2023, the pavilion was installed along with a grill and four picnic tables that can seat about eight people each.
