Kimley Horn and Associates, Inc. was contacted to provide these services based on their previous work on median beautification projects in the City of Keller. The concept plan includes landscape, hardscape and irrigation. Plantings will consist of Texas native and adaptive shrubs, ornamental grasses, groundcover and ornamental trees. Hardscape improvements will include hardwood mulch and river rock, as well as 12” concrete mow strips along the back of curb for maintenance and safety.
