Buda surveys possibility of Dark Sky designation

The prospect of ecotourism is leading Buda’s sustainability commission to survey the city for the potential of becoming a Dark Sky Community.

That move comes after commission members in July discussed plans for Buda to possibly apply for Dark Sky designation.

Wimberley, Dripping Springs and Horseshoe Bay are the only three cities in Texas that are certified Dark Sky Communities, which is granted by the International Dark Sky Association.
