Welcome to the Fort Bend MUD 25 Quality of Life Improvement Planning (QLIP) program! The QLIP is composed of MUD 25 resident volunteers who believe in developing Green Space in our communities as a way to create and maintain a united district identity through the “Master Park Plan”. The Master Park Plan is a great case study showing what individual residents can do for their community in partnership with local government.
2011
In response to calls and requests from local residents, a comprehensive Parks and Recreation Master Plan for the District (the “Master Park Plan”) was created in 2011 by a resident-driven committee of volunteers. The plan, created with input from the volunteer committee members, was designed to be a guide for the implementation of parks and landscaping projects for the community. The plan will continue to serve as a guide as we move forward with implementing the parks and trails projects.
2013
Composed of MUD 25 resident volunteers, the QLIP Committee was established in May 2013. Their goal was to identify and prioritize projects into short and long-term goals to be completed over the course of 10 bond-years. Utilizing resident input , the QLIP was able to prioritize the projects under consideration to help create a visually pleasant and pedestrian friendly community. The proposed projects and priorities included improving infrastructure, appearance, landscaping and improved or enhanced recreational opportunities.
The QLIP committee maintains committed to promoting and maintaining a healthy, vibrant, safe community with focus on a high quality of life for all MUD 25 district residents.
