It s not every day that a city gets a $5.7 million parkland donation.
The city of Dripping Springs just did specifically, 300 acres to create a park that will be almost 30 acres bigger than Austin s beloved Zilker Park.
Earlier this month, Dripping Springs City Council accepted a donation deed for the 300 acres from Austin developer and philanthropist Dick Rathgeber and Rathgeber Investment Company LTD.
The property is at the confluence of Barton Creek and Little Barton Creek, and is adjacent to the Headwaters subdivision.
The land will be dedicated to the city as Rathgeber Natural Resource Park.
The future park will protect 300 acres of pristine Texas Hill Country land and provide public access for recreational activities, city officials said.
