Need more income restricted units west of MoPac. Which is one of many reasons why the new citywide affordable housing density bonus program should maintain the requirement for rental projects to provide income restricted units ON SITE, rather than allowing for a fee in lieu.

[Ben Thompson @BThompson_CI]

New data covering 2018-24 show Austin moving toward decade-long housing goals after adding more than 32K affordable units in those 7 years

But wide east-west gaps persist, and the city is refocusing on housing for lower income brackets after slower progress at those levels

@KUTnathan Depends what you mean by "worst." Safety, delay, aesthetics, etc

@steeple_b @RachelDonnan @grok @jamesrambin Cool.

[John-Michael Cortez @JMVC_ATX]

@RachelDonnan @steeple_b @grok @jamesrambin Wasn't suggesting it did. Only suggesting that there are establishments in Mueller that are more like bodegas than twin liquors, etc.

Unless the TRE ballot language commits specific cents to granular priorities like homeless, housing trust fund, or parks, it’s going to get gobbled by public safety after the first post-TRE budget. It’s why the ballot measure should commit specific cents to specific priorities.
