The National Recreation and Park Association, Trust for Public Land and mayors from 134 cities have created a “10-minute walk” effort, seeking to help all people to live within a half-mile of green space. The mayors signed on during the past year, endorsing the goal of providing every neighborhood with a quality park that improves life for city residents, serves as a safe place for people to gather, and adds to the beauty of the city.

This article from the Huffington Post highlights the partnership between the City of Houston and SPARK that will help achieve this goal in Houston.
