Editing Meadows Place, Texas (section)

==Parks and recreation==
Meadows Place has six parks within the city: Mark McGrath Municipal Park, Jim McDonald Park, Brighton Lane Park, Meadow Glen Park, Meadow Valley Park, and Kangaroo Court Park. 

The city also has a Discovery & Nature Center, that offers up-close experiences with several different species of animals. The center is open to residents and non-residents for a fee. It can also be rented for birthday parties and special occasions.

In addition, the city has a community center, community swimming pool, tennis courts, pickleball courts, baseball fields, splash pad, walking trails, and a running path. Both the community center and swimming pool are available for rental.

In 2011, the city built a lake complex in the middle of their park using Type 1 reclaimed water. This facility is used for fishing, hiking, and birdwatching year round. The lake is used as source of water for irrigation of city parks, saving the city money on subsidence fees. This project was recognized as the number two top environmental project in the State of Texas by Keep Texas Beautiful in 2012 and has had visitors from around the country.
