BRENHAM CITY LEADERS TO HEAR UPDATE ON BRENHAM FAMILY PARK

  

A joint session is scheduled for Wednesday for City of Brenham officials to receive an update on the Brenham Family Park.

Brenham City Councilmembers, along with members of the Brenham Community Development Corporation (BCDC) Board and Parks and Recreation Advisory Board, will hear a presentation from Jones Carter Engineering on the proposed design for Phase 1(a) of the park.

Most recently, members of the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board were updated in April on the park’s progress.  They were told at that meeting that the city expects to bid out the first phase of the project for construction in September.  Construction would begin in November and take 18-24 months to complete.

The park will be located on 106.8 acres of land donated to the city by Ed and Evelyn Kruse in December 2013.  The land is located just south of Highway 290 off South Chappell Hill Street, north of the Brenham State Supported Living Center.

The meeting will be held Wednesday morning at 11:45 a.m. at the Historic Simon Theater.
