BUDA — On Nov. 3, the Buda City Council will recognize the city of Buda as a Platinum Scenic City recipient, which is the highest level awarded in the Scenic City Certification Program.
This year, Buda is one of 22 Texas cities to be certified as a Scenic City. The city was awarded a Gold Scenic City Certification in 2011 and improved in rank to a Platinum designation this year for the first time.
“The City has worked relentlessly to earn this platinum designation,” said Melissa McCollum, Buda Planning Director. “It’s an honor for the City to have received this recognition. It’s the product of the City’s high standards for streetscapes and its effort to preserve heritage trees, cultivate greenbelts and limit light pollution.”
