Braeburn Neighborhood Resilience Plan

Neighborhood Resilience Planning Public Meeting #3

Thank you for attending our final public meeting at the Bayland Community Center. We truly appreciate your support and dedication to OUR community. Your presence at the March 7th public meeting has made a valuable impact on the success of this event, and we are grateful for your participation. Together, we can continue to make positive change in Braeburn. The Braeburn Neighborhood Resilience Plan is forthcoming, we look forward to sharing it with you soon.

Neighborhood Resilience Planning is underway in the Braeburn Super Neighborhood

Neighborhood Resilience Plans are a crucial step towards realizing the vision established in Resilient Houston, the citywide resilience plan unveiled in 2020. So, the Braeburn community is partnering with the City of Houston to create a neighborhood-scale plan that can help address resilience issues specific to the area within the boundaries of the Braeburn Super Neighborhood. More information about the program is available here.

Community participation in the year-long planning process is critical to creating a successful plan. A Neighborhood Support Team (NST) made up of community leaders has been established to provide input on what's already happening, areas of concern, meeting locations, and agendas. Most importantly, they serve as ambassadors by encouraging participation from everyone in the community.

The first phase of the planning process is to identify issues and opportunities. These are the things that are loved in the community or are going well and things that need to be addressed. This was the focus of the first public meeting held on Thursday, July 13, 2023, and we learned a lot.

It's not too late to join the conversation. Use this Issues and Opportunities interactive map to identify places or things you love and places that need attention.

Take a moment to respond to a short Vision and Purpose Survey to tell us more about your community.

Braeburn Kick-Off Public Meeting

The kick-off event on July 13th at the Bayland Community Center drew an impressive turnout, with over 40 participants, including Council Members Sallie Alcorn and Edward Pollard, as well as representatives from Commissioner Lesley Briones's office (Precinct 4). A special shoutout to the Braeburn Super Neighborhood Council for hosting.
