DescBuffalo Bayou Park (formerly known as Shepherd to Sabine) - A strong public-private partnership including the Kinder Foundation, Buffalo Bayou Partnership ("BBP"), the City of Houston, and Harris County Flood Control District carried out an ambitious $58 million restoration project for the stretch of bayou from Shepherd Drive to Sabine Street. The project involved flood management, eco-restoration, new hike and bike trails and an array of park amenities. The park improvements were substantially completed for the Buffalo Bayou Park project in 2015, and BBP transferred ownership to the City. BBP maintains and operates the 160-acre Buffalo Bayou Park and is also responsible for maintaining the hike and bike trails and green spaces along the waterway from Sabine to Fannin streets. To assist with ongoing maintenance and conservation efforts, BBP relies on thousands of volunteers and community service workers each year that remove weeds and invasive species, plant wildflowers, pick up trash and remove silt from the trails after heavy rains.Desc

Form And Line ReferenceGrantmaker's Description of How Grants are UsedFormAndLineReferenceDesc
Explanation- In 2011, Buffalo Bayou Partnership (BBP) entered into an agreement with the Harris County Flood Control District and the City of Houston to delegate responsibilities of the redevelopment of the Bayou from Shepherd Drive to Sabine Street (also known as Buffalo Bayou Park) to BBP. The park improvements were substantially completed in December 2015, and BBP transferred ownership to the City at that time. An additional $165,000 in park improvements were transferred to the City in 2017. BBP operates and maintains Buffalo Bayou Park and it is monitored by the Standards Committee and the Maintenance Committee. - In September 2017, the Partnership contributed .54 acres of land along Japhet Creek purchased in May 2017 for $351,100 to the City to enhance the ecological, conservation and recreational values of Japhet Creek. In October 2017, the Partnership contributed 1.73 acres of land recorded at $129,850 to the City to be used for construction of trails for public access along the Bayous east sector.ExplanationTxt
