Blueprint Houston Honors Ed Wulfe
On Wednesday, June 24th, Blueprint Houston, Mayor Bill White, Mayoral Candidates Annise Parker and Peter Brown, Representative Ellen Cohen, newly elected Councilman Ed Gonzalez and a packed house of Houston notables celebrated Ed Wulfe as one of Houston’s most enlightened developers and a tireless advocate for a stronger, healthier, more vibrant Houston. Joining Ed was his wife Lorraine Wulfe, his daughters, and all seven of his grandchildren.

The crush of notables included John Guess from the Guess Group who was presiding for Blueprint Houston and more than twenty of the Blueprint Houston Board Members as well as representatives from the Houston Endowment, Inc., the Hershey foundation, the Finger Foundation and many of our finest architects, engineers, planners, developers, attorneys, and other corporate and civic leaders.

Blueprint Houston is dedicated to citizen involvement in planning the city’s future and in fostering the development of the first General Plan for the City of Houston since 1929. Ed Wulfe is visionary and an implementer of plans that recognize the citizens’ vision, values and goals.

Citizens Congress m. III
October 3, 2009
9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
George R. Brown Convention Center

Over the next 10 years, we will have 230,000 new residents within the Houston City Limits and 90,000 new housing units and we will consume 60 square miles of undeveloped land. Houston has 80 square miles of undeveloped land left within the City Limits. Between 2020 and 2030 we will consume all of the undeveloped land within the City Limits of Houston. We need a plan for how to manage this transition from a land rich City to a land constrained City. We need to have a process and plan for engaging all of the citizenry in this plan. That's what Blueprint Houston is advocating . . . make certain your voice is heard. Get involved today! Join the cause now! It's about your future and mine and the children who come after us . . .
 

Citizens’ Congress II

Using electronic voting keypads, a diverse group of over 500 citizens voted 87% in favor of Houston leaders adopting a growth strategy for the city’s future development.
