Buda Acquires Parkland as Part of Enhancements for Garison Park. The City of Buda recently acquired 4.5 acres to add to the future Garison Park. The property, located at 901 Garison Road, provides the City with continuous access along Onion Creek where Garison Park will be constructed as part of the 2021 Proposition B Bond Program. The original, approximately 40-acre Garison Park property was purchased in 2016 to create a unique recreational experience for City residents and visitors that will include water play, access for non-motorized watercraft, fishing, hiking, bird watching, and more. The Onion Creek Trail, another 2021 Proposition B Bond Project, will also traverse the Garison Park property, eventually linking The Colony at Cole Springs to Stagecoach Park by a trail that will run along Onion Creek. The purchase of the property was made possible through the support of Hays County. The Commissioners Court pledged up to $900,000 for the purchase through the Hays County 2020 Parks Bond.
