AUSTIN (CBSNewsTexas.com) — Members of the Texas Legislature are voicing their support for efforts to keep a North Texas state park open. Members of the House Committee on Culture, Recreation, and Tourism are the latest officials to throw their support behind the effort to preserve Fairfield Lake State Park. Last month, Gov. Greg Abbott voiced his support for saving the park. Committee members, including Chairman Trent Ashby, expressed their interest in working with the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TWPD) and property owners to find a solution that saves the park for public use.
