CheckMyNPV.com can be used by homeowners who have been denied a HAMP modification because of their NPV result.

Another addition to the great park system has opened in Williamson County. At the Southwest Williamson County Regional Park a new Splash Park is open to the public. It has three areas for kids of all ages to splash and have fun on a hot day. It includes a sand area with small fountains for the littlest ones to a water fall, water cannons and water slide.

In addition to Cedar Park & Leander have a series of parks for all types of outdoor activity such as, BMX, Skate Park, Jogging/Bike Trails, and Dog Park. There is an area most likely to enjoy for any kid or adult.
As a resident of the area, I can’t be more happy with the parks and recreation that Cedar Park & Leander have provide to its residents.

City of Cedar Park Challenges Census Numbers
The 2010 Census tallied the city’s population at 48,937. It’s about 5,000 less than what the city estimated. Not hitting the 50,000 mark can affect the city’s regional representation. What’s at stake if population is shown to be over 50K: (1) City will take over traffic light signalization on state highways. (2) City will maintain its third seat on general assembly at Capital Area Council of Governments. (3) Additional funding and grants. (4) Retains its seat on the Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization Transportation Policy Board.
The city is challenging the 2010 Census. The speed at which the challenge is to be resolved can take several months, depending on the complexity.
