The city of San Antonio has recommended that Lincoln Park on East Commerce Street get $1 million from the city’s proposed 2017 bond program. Butt’s donation will be a matching pledge.

During the announcement, potential park improvements and illustrations from students depicting their “dream park” will be displayed.

The city of San Antonio is expected to vote on a nearly $750 million bond in May 2017.

If approved by voters, construction would be completed by summer 2018, in time for the city’s tricentennial celebration.
