Missouri City residents may be able to access the 190-acre Kitty Hollow Park without a motor vehicle, as Missouri City City Council heard a presentation Sept. 3 on a proposed trail that would connect Lakeshore Harbor and other surrounding neighborhoods to the park directly.

The trail is being developed as a partnership between MUD 48, Missouri City and Fort Bend County.

"With the trail connector that we are able to co-fund with [MUD 48] and the county, we will be able to have connections...directly into Kitty Hollow Park so [residents] will have easy access without having to get in their car," City Manager Ed Broussard said.

The inter-local agreement between Fort Bend County and MUD 48 calls for the county to provide the equipment and the manpower to clear the land and construct the trail, said Mike Davis, director of parks and recreation for Fort Bend County.

The park is at 9555 Hwy. 6 and features pavilions, walking trails, play areas, athletic fields, a lake and piers, picnic areas, and a recently added leash-free dog park.
