Six new playgrounds coming to Bryan parks
Bryan's kids across the community are in for a treat, as six new playgrounds totaling nearly $1 million are in the process of being installed over the next several months. The playgrounds will replace older playgrounds at five parks, and be installed brand new at one park. Features include slides, monkey bars and climbing features, just to name a few. Check out the link below to see renderings of what's in store for outdoor recreation in Bryan this year!
Celebrating safe structures during Building Safety Month
In 2021, a record high 3,527 building permits were issued in Bryan – and Bryan's six full-time and two part-time building inspectors worked to ensure each new construction and build renovation followed the city's building codes. These individuals are an integral part of creating safe buildings in our community.

While not as well understood as other departments, sewer maintenance and wastewater treatment directly affect each resident.
