RECOGNITION Mr. Bud Gessel Director/Parks Coordinator Timber Lane Utility District
Mr. Bud Gessel and the Timber Lane Utility District have worked diligently since 2005 to secure natural landscapes in the Spring, Texas area for the purposes of developing park land and open space for the good people of the district. Their collective efforts and Mr. Bud Gessel’s guidance have been key to realizing the creation of open space and recreation opportunities located in the North Houston area. These parcels of land designated as park lands, trails, open space, wildlife habitats and forest lands will provide the citizens of the greater Houston area the opportunity to enjoy the natural environment well into the future. Community planning for any growing population must include the provision for access to nature in nearby environments. The Timber Lane Utility District has done a great service for its constituents. We believe this contributes to the improved quality of life for all those who would engage in outdoor activities.

PREFACE Human population growth and urban expansion in the United States continues. The consequence expressed as “megapolitan zones” by Lange and Dhale (2005) gives us a better understanding of the magnitude of this growth. Ten zones were identified across the United States. Among them are the Gulf Coast region along the Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama coastline, the I-35 Corridor (Austin, Dallas), The Midwest region (Chicago), the Peninsula region (Southern Florida) and Cascadia (Seattle, Portland).
Second, social learning, if properly influenced, can help us develop positive social responses to the choices we make. Our choices should reflect the basic values we have towards the human-landscape connection and the sustainability of this relationship.
The question to ask is “How can we continue to protect and conserve open space, habitat, forests, and wetlands for people within these growth zones?”
It is within these parameters that the Cypress Creek Hike and Bike Trail System Master Plan has been created. We have attempted to put the Cypress Creek segment in question into a regional watershed context. We have referenced many existing environmental planning data to inform us of the natural systems that are structured there naturally and function as a living physical entity. This activity informs the community, financial program leaders and governments. It also informs us, the planners, as to how to make wise use of the land.
Community planners have become much more aware of the trends and what can be done about this problem. In 1969, the U.S. Congress passed the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA 1969). It had the impact of enabling a new era of landscape planning and design to emerge. This new era would witness the rise of an environmentally responsible land use planning ethic and procedures intended to inform land development planning. Our knowledge base of the North American landscapes, our technical capabilities, and our planning strategies greatly benefited from this knowledge. The landscapes that endured these changes have not fared as well. Land use plans result in physical manifestations that occupy land. We have discovered their consumptive characteristics become costs passed on to the surrounding landscapes. Ultimately, we realize these planning concepts are narrowly focused, short term solutions that conflict with long term broadly based operations of the greater landscape region. We have discovered several important realities since 1969. First, landscape planning is most successful when directed by the sciences that support the planning and design disciplines; watershed hydrology, wildlife biology, landscape ecology, and ecology to name a few. Science has broadened the scope of human possibilities and our ability to visualize the probable consequences of our actions. In matters of making environmental choices facing us, we must realize possibilities are not infinite.
II
Thirdly, we realize people will save that which is important to them. They will save it for themselves, their families, and their communities.
Ultimately, we have planned and designed the trail system to link users with the components of the environment in which it is placed. The forest system, the wildlife habitats contained therein, the stream channel and its flood zone, the neighborhoods nearby, the access routes to the trail, and the greater northern Houston population. If we are successful in planning for these components, we believe we will see a successful new human-landscape linkage to our natural environments along Cypress Creek emerge.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS We are indebted to many governmental agencies at the county, regional and national level. Their data sets and expertise helped us get our project off to a fast start. We utilized countless websites, scientific studies, and academic documents to further inform us of the county and site level data sets. The Timber Lane Utility District personnel were extremely helpful in connecting us with the various state, county, and regional offices we needed to interview. Finally, it is important to recognize the entire MLA studio group who were the tireless, committed planner/designer teams responsible for the work contained herein.

PROJECT OVERVIEW The graduate program in Landscape Architecture at Texas A&M University has been developing its educational strategy around the fundamental belief that we must prepare our students more broadly for entry into the complex, changing, and ever demanding world of practicing professionals engaged in the built environment. This belief places a great deal of expectation on its faculty to engage in enlightened research inspired teaching and to convey that information to the students taking the design studio, technical and theory courses making up the curriculum.
Land 693 Final Design studio (2 students) under the direction of the faculty supervisor, Dr. Jon Rodiek.
One way the faculty can create such learning experiences within the design studio, is to undertake real projects sponsored by real clients. Such was the case for the LAND 620 graduate design studio. A request for support came to us from the Timber Lane Utility District in Spring, Texas in July 2014. They expressed a need for planning assistance in creating a hike and bike trail system. Their purpose was to utilize a comprehensive master plan to identify potential cost sharing partners to help develop the trail.
Vision 2020: The Twelve Imperatives for Texas A&M University
As is often the case, such an approach to planning is the only way a community can realize any hope of achieving success. Financial capabilities to secure professional assistance is simply not available. Our college supports selected worthy municipal causes through its Texas Target Cities program, internship programs, and studio projects to assist community needs like the one requested by the Timber Lane Utility District.
In addition to the client’s objectives (Timber Lane Utility District), other references were used to create additional objectives. By doing so, the College, Department, University, and Community concerns were integrated into the master plan.
Imperative #1: #1 Elevate our faculty, their teaching, research and scholarships. Imperative #5: Build on the tradition of professional education. Imperative # 7: Increase access to knowledge resources. The Harold L. Adam’s ’61 Initiative and Professorship 2006 Initiatives and Professorship 2006 Initiative- To support professional development of faculty to teach, conduct research, and provide service to the university, community, and citizens of Texas through interdisciplinary research and related teaching of concepts and educational theory for the built environment.
Project Teaching Concepts
The project was organized into three parts. Part I, Summer 2014, Research on case study procedure and field study of site. Part II, Summer 2014, Desiged study structure. Part III, Panning/design execution, August-December 2014.
The studio followed the fundamental premise that any planning endeavor must be in possession of a strategic plan, a master plan and financial plan to coordinate any and all activities. The Timber Lane Utility District has in place a well-conceived strategic plan. It was the task of the Land 620 Design Studio to use this opportunity to create a procedure and a project document to respond to their needs.
The summer 2014 research/field study and study design of the studio structure was completed by the supervising faculty of the studio and one graduate student who surveyed the study area by frequent visits to the site and interviews with the client and nearby government support agencies. The Summer-Fall study planning and design was completed by the Land 620 studio (21 students),
This educational project served the purposes of the Utility District, the Departmental Studio course curriculum, the University Teaching, Research and Service mission, and the Harold L. Adams Professorship to seek out new research and service activities to provide the citizens of Texas and the university educational theory of the built environment.

Project Objectives
DESIGN SOLUTIONS The development of the project design came under the responsibility of Dr. Jon Rodiek, Professor, Department of Landscape Architecture and Urban Planning. The project is complex in terms of its studio organizational approach (research, analysis, and synthesis), work force organization outputs and coordination. It was critical that the products be clearly presented in terms of graphic execution and display and that the client group clearly understands the contents of the plans from an environmental protection, structural integrity, and planning viability point of view.
Each student was given a task in the three phases. Their performance in previous graduate studio work prior to the fall 2014 semester was noted and evaluated. They were familiar with spatial configuration work and some environmental design concept work. The research/case study phase served to enlighten them to the specific tasks in the analysis and synthesis phases. In the synthesis phase, additional design components were added to the preliminary alternatives. Four major components were added (trail crossing prototypes for various site conditions, rest stops, parking lots, neighborhood access points). Finally, two alternatives were presented to the client. The client critiqued these two alternative designs. A final plan complete with design details for selected elements was presented. An appendices provided additional information for client reference in the future. The studio was able to complete the tasks in a timely fashion because of their individual and team commitments. Their progress was reviewed on a frequent basis (usually twice a week in a M, W, F class studio).
Academic environments are different from professional office environments. The time for engaging in presentation, analysis, assimilation and production is compressed. Furthermore, the planner/designer’s capabilities operate in a much narrower range of experience and competency. Collaboration, coordination, and communication are three ways by which the faculty can enhance performance. It does put a premium on student commitment and productivity. Review and refinement is extremely important in this studio environment. Students were kept aware of three learning components of the comprehensive master plan’s contents. First, the land use planning strategies were set early on in the process. It was the students’ task to recognize the components of the strategy and translate them into a compatible environmental design concepts, and valid spatial configurations.
Each team moved together with the other two teams in a manner where team learning and studio learning informed all of each team’s work, Dropbox, email and online editing helped speed up the process of transferring information among and between groups and individuals. This project structure was a vast improvement over more conventionally structured studio projects. First, all teams moved forward through phases at the same time. Only after each phase was complete would the next phase begin. Supervisor review and client feedback helped inform students to produce excellent project decisions. Public presentations to the client and public audience at the midpoint and final (on site with Spring citizens in attendance) proved to be a very positive experience.

SITE INTRODUCTION Introduction The Department of Landscape Architecture and Urban Planning in the College of Architecture at Texas A&M University is in the business of training future professionals in the fields of landscape architecture and planning. The Graduate program of Landscape Architecture is focused on providing training in the field of Landscape Architecture for its graduate stuidents. The goal is to prepare all students for entry level competence in the profession. The purpose of the MLA program is to give the student the most comtemorary expierence possible in the terms of its studio course work. Cypress Creek located in Harris County was a perfect case study for the MLA LAND 620 studio.
Project Location
Goals
6.5 mile site located on the North side of Cypress Creek in North Harris County is the focal part of the study.
There are three goals by which the CMP will be guided.
Client The client is the Timer Lane Utility District board of directors. They represent the interest of the citizens and the natural resources of the Timber Lane M.U.D.
Purpose The purpose of the project is foor the MLA students of the LAND 620 Design Studio to provide the client (Timber Lane M.U.D.) with a Comprehensive Master Plan (CMP) for the recreation and open space activities for the site. The project is directed by Dr. Jon Rodiek a faculty member in the Department of Landscape Architecture and Urban Planning, College of Architecture, Texas A&M University.
1. Capture value in the resident ecosystem The CMP shall demonstrate creative ways for users to see the value of the resources provided by this unique ecosystem (i.e. plant materials, wildlife species , and open spaces). The plan will create a 6.5 alignment alternative for the trail, prototype designs for trail facilities and access parking and pedestrian entry for the Timber Lane M.U.D. users.
2. Link land use and water. The CMP shall demonstrate creative ways to link on site and offsite water resources to support on site habitat conditions. The purpose is to demonstrate the interdependance of site and regional hydrology with natural resource land use plans.
3. Support the ongoing environmental protection leadership of the Timber Land M.U.D. The work done to purchase this unique parcel of land by Timber Lane M.U.D. board of directors needs to be encouraged and supported with state of the art land use plans. The plans will help demonstrate to other M.U.D. boards how to better use their natural resources for simular open space and recreation needs.
