    The Westwood community is excited about its new park improvements. On Saturday, March 11, Houston Parks Board and 50/50 Partners, Houston Parks and Recreation, Mayor Sylvester Turner, and GH Partnership celebrated with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at Forum Park. The day was filled with love and laughter as children played soccer on the brand-new mini-pitch, and community members spoke about the importance of the 50/50 Park Project and its impacts on the Houston community. Thank you again to all the community members and stakeholders who attended the listening sessions to help make these park improvements come to reality.

    Lead Planner Bennie Chambers III with the Community & Regional Planning Division and District F partnered together for a street light field trip to survey the community. “The All Lights On, Houston!” campaign was launched in December 2021 to educate communities on how to report light poles that are out or need maintenance, to request a new light pole, and to report tree canopy.


    Public safety is more than police. It's also about how we create safe public spaces. As for many of us know streetlights are a critical amenity. They make residents feel safer and more comfortable.


    District F shared a survey in their newsletter and your results included a few more known locations. Here's what we are learning:

    • Cook between Alief Clodine to Bissonnett is DARK.
    • Wellington Park has tree canopies that need to be trimmed and very limited lighting in the area.
    • High Star from Cook to Wilcrest has tree canopies that need to be trimmed.
    • Meadowcroft to Buttercup needs lighting too.
    • Harwin Park has very limited lighting and the lighting that exists is dim.

    If you have a street light recommendation buzz districtf@houstontx.gov or Bennie.ChambersIII@houstontx.gov


    It's LIT in District F (or will be).

    The City of Houston is exceptionally grateful for the engagement of AIA Houston and the Houston Chapter of the National Organization of Minority Architects (NOMA) to have provided implementation strategies of the Complete Communities Action Plans. The ownership, use, and copies of the presentations and submitted designs are reserved and retained by AIA Houston and the City of Houston’s Complete Communities. However, the collaborative effort and work is not done.


    Complete Communities focuses on capital projects and strategic programming that eliminate structural barriers and improve the quality of life for Houston’s most vulnerable populations, and the presentations made on April 24, 2021, supported the work to attract new development and expand resources throughout the neighborhoods.
