BUDA, TEXAS – During a special meeting, Buda City Council approved a general obligation bond package totaling $89.66 million for the Nov. 2, 2021 election. Proposition A, comprised of transportation and mobility projects, and Proposition B, comprised of parks and recreation projects, are detailed on the website, www.budabonds.com, called “Your Buda, Your Choice.”
The proposed transportation projects include:
The proposed projects also involve other future small mobility improvements to be “shovel ready” for potential grant funding with improvements for streets, roads, bridges, and intersections. This includes related utility relocation, sidewalks, pedestrian and bicycle improvements, purchase of necessary rights-of-way, design and management costs, required equipment, and drainage, comprising about $73.57 million of the overall cost.
The remaining $16.09 million of the costs are related to parks and recreation projects for Garlic Creek Trail Phase II, Eastside Park, Onion Creek Trail, Green Meadows Park / Stoneridge Park, City Park parking and Garison Park Phase I, and includes land acquisition, design costs, required equipment and drainage.
Projects that were considered for inclusion in the bond referendum were reviewed by a City Council-appointed Buda Bond Advisory Council (BBAC). The BBAC was charged with reviewing the City of Buda’s master plans, community surveys, capital improvement plans, and other documents; analyzing potential projects for consideration in a bond election for constructability, cost, and public benefit; and recommending a slate of projects to the City Council for consideration.
Buda voters are encouraged to visit www.budabonds.com “Your Buda, Your Choice,” to get more information about the proposed projects, tax implications, legal notices, frequently asked questions, voter registration and election information, voter boundary requirements and other resources.
