City Council Approves Additional Funding from Type B Board to Fully Fund Cole Park Pier
January 26, 2021
Cole Park Pier is a popular destination for residents and tourists who enjoy fishing, sightseeing or just enjoying the weather. Since Cole Park Pier has been around for many years, it has been rebuilt once and seen numerous partial renovations to maintain the structure. Planning has begun for the pier to once again be demolished and rebuilt.
Cole Park Pier has been closed since 2018 after structural deficiencies were discovered. The Parks & Recreation Department and Engineering Services are currently working together on this project. The new pier will be completely rebuilt and incorporate features identified through citizen feedback from a recent survey conducted by the Parks and Recreation Department. The City welcomes the public to review the history of the pier, actions taken by the City, funding sources and more to come!

The City of Corpus Christi adopted a tax rate that will raise more taxes for maintenance and operations than last year's tax rate. The tax rate will effectively be raised by 4.69 percent and will raise taxes for maintenance and operations on a $100,000 home by approximately $16.87.
