Background and Discussion:

Burnett Bayland Park is located in Harris County Precinct 4 on the west side of Houston inside Beltway 8 loop. The park is located at the intersection of Gulfton Street and Chimney Rock Road. The park is bounded by Gulfton Street on the north, Chimney Rock Road on the east, Alder Dr on the west, and extended park area on the south side. Burnett Bayland Park is a 40-acre park that features skate park, walking trails, community center, play areas, basketball courts etc. The proposed improvements include an inclusive playground, detention basin, event lawn, multi-purpose courts, soccer fields, gaming and seating area, splash pad, rain gardens, restrooms, pavilions, covered basketball courts, multi-purpose courts, skate park etc. This additional scope includes park extension on the south side of the Elm Street which will include practice soccer fields, detention basin, driveway, parking stalls, sidewalk, entry structures and walking trails.

 

 

 

 

Expected Impact:

The proposed park reconstruction with improved amenities will provide a signature park in Harris County to serve the community

The County could elect to fund the requested task or choose to reject it.  However, if not approved, the project may not be constructed. As a result, the community may not have an improved park with proposed amenities.
