The corps plan calls for the development of 9 initial public-use areas including picnic, shelter, parking and boating facilities below Randolph. The group unanimously passed a resolution demanding at least two more public use areas on each side of the reservoir and above Randolph. One of these would be as far north as Cleburne. The resolution calls for unrestricted recreational use of the reservoir area with a possible exception of a 34,000 acre proposed Grass Lands National Park site.
