There remains no known public benefit of city-mandated height limits.

'We are leaving federal transit funding on the table and essentially sending our federal tax dollars to California and New York, because we uniquely have such low transit funding in our state,' said Jay Blazek Crossley from Farm and City.

It’s interesting how mean lots of elected officials were attacking Austin Energy when people didn’t have power, but now those same officials seem quiet when a private company is responsible.

People suffer similarly, but it seems Austin handled information & transparency better.

And ATX City Council Passes HOME phase II which will decrease our minimum lot size and better allow this city to welcome all the wonderful people who want to make this city home! Thanks again to Leslie Pool for her amazing leadership on this!

LETS GO! #atxcouncil just lowered compatibility citywide from 540 ft >>> 75 ft, unlocking over 60K potential new housing units & great redevelopment of our commercial corridors. Thank you
Chito Vela III & your staff for getting this done🙌 communityimpact.com/austin/central…

Do we aim for a city hindered by congestion & long commutes? This detracts from our quality of life. 📈shows freeways, such as I-10, only exacerbate traffic. Adopting multimodal transportation is essential for our city's positive growth. #houston bit.ly/NHHIP45

I wrote an editorial for Houston Chronicle! Featuring Jay Blazek Crossley, Kevin DeGood & Richard Nixon, and adapted from CITY LIMITS. Give it a read and buy the book!

I agree with Mayor John Whitmire’s budget message on Houston’s self-imposed revenue cap.

It hasn’t made Houston affordable, but has significantly hurt the ability of the City to be what Houstonians want. Put it on the ballot in November & get rid of it.

Tomorrow is a big day for Austin! Council will be voting on several items that will impact our future housing supply and make homeownership accessible to more Austinites. A short🧵

absolute joke

Hey Tx friends!!!
Austin will vote on Thursday to reduce lot sizes from 5,750 square foot to 2,000 square foot.

It would be amazing to allow ppl to have smaller more affordable housing lots and reduce housing costs in the city.

If u believe in this let ur elected officials
