wfaa.com

Fair Park First, the nonprofit managing Fair Park, owes the City of Dallas over $1.25 million in unpaid utility reimbursements. The city has requested a payment plan by March 21, delaying maintenance at several facilities, including Texas Discovery Gardens. The City of Dallas has been covering utility bills, but Fair Park First has not reimbursed since December 2024. Maintenance issues at Fair Park facilities have been self-funded by partners, with Texas Discovery Gardens reporting over $700,000 in deferred expenses. The City planned to take over maintenance by March 15, while OVG360, a subcontractor, is working on a resolution for the funding gap. Recent developments follow previous issues between Fair Park First and OVG360 regarding donor funds.
