EL PASO, Texas (KTSM) — El Paso County is hosting a community meeting to get public feedback on proposed improvements to the San Felipe OHV Park in Fabens.
The meeting will be held at 6 p.m. Monday, Nov. 3 at 1331 N. Fabens Road.
The County’s consultant — Countryman & Co. Architect — will hold a public information session designed to introduce the project and gather community ideas.
Attendees will be able to share their input on off-road trail options, shade and shelter features, and other amenities that will shape the future of the park.
The proposed project includes:
- Construction of off-road trails for children and adults
- Installation of shade structures
- Construction of access roads and perimeter fencing
- Implementation of standardized park signs
The improvements are made possible through funding from the 2024 El Paso County General Obligation Bond Program, along with a Texas Parks and Wildlife Department grant that supports construction costs.
Community engagement will continue throughout the design process to ensure the final plan reflects the needs and vision of Fabens residents and off-highway-vehicle enthusiasts, the County said.
In November 2024, El Paso County voters approved three propositions under the 2024 General Obligation Bond Program: Proposition A for parks and recreation improvements, Proposition B for a new Medical Examiner facility, and Proposition E for the County’s first dedicated animal shelter.
Together, these projects represent a $155 million investment in community spaces, public health, and animal welfare, the County said.
