Burnett Bayland Park Master Plan

Harris County Precinct 4 and Commissioner Lesley Briones has begun the Burnett Bayland Park Master Plan. The Master Plan will transform Burnett Bayland Park into an iconic experience for all to enjoy. It is a collaborative community initiative, and the project team wants to hear your ideas for the future of the park. 

The Master Plan process will include the voices and input from key stakeholders and the surrounding community. There will be stakeholder meetings, community workshops, presentations to area groups and organizations, informal touchpoints and a survey. This is scheduled to take place from summer 2023 through Spring 2024.

PURPOSE OF THE MASTER PLAN

CREATE plans for a signature neighborhood park that is a regional destination due to its multicultural design, programming, amenities, and connectivity with adjacent neighborhoods.
DESIGN a remarkable and safe greenspace in Southwest Houston/Harris County that improves community health and provides recreational opportunities for the community.
DETERMINE housing recommendations and strategies to ensure that investment in the park does not produce ‘green gentrification’.
PREPARE a phased implementation strategy with cost estimates, financing, and alternative scenarios for park concepts.
