Barton Hills Community Park – The Natural Heart of our Hood


On November 5, 2012, the recently formed BHNA Committee dedicated to Neighborhood park improvements submitted a Master Plan document to the City of Austin for consideration and approval. This reflects a year’s worth of community input and engagement, as well as the technical and professional expertise of many Barton Hill neighbors. Read more here to learn about the vision, public process, and action plans associated with this long-term process to enhance our treasured park.

Phases and Implementation

Greenbelt Guardians Workday Saturday Nov. 10

Greenbelt Guardians logo
Neighbors,

I hope that a good number of you will join us on this Saturday’s work day at the Homedale Trail entry. It definitely needs our TLC, and we will provide Maria’s tacos to help build stamina for the tasks, and tools and leaders to facilitate the work. You just come in your long shirt and pants and work shoes and with your collaborative spirit. We always have fun and feel accomplished as we survey our work afterwards.

The Austin Parks Foundation now has an easy sign up process, so please go to the website address : http://austinparks.org/calendar.html
to sign up under the Greenbelt Guardians listing. They will keep tabs on the contact information and we will do the rest.

Thank you for your support.
