Author: Drew Knight, Terri Gruca Published: 11:45 AM CDT April 19, 2021 Updated: 5:21 PM CDT April 19, 2021 AUSTIN, Texas A local group is speaking out against a proposed sewage facility near Barton Creek, which it claims could eventually clog the beloved stream with algae. According to the Save Barton Creek Association, the planned facility will be located between Oak Hill and Dripping Springs. They say it could dump up to 45,000 gallons of treated wastewater into one of Barton Creek s contributing streams every day. Citing a City of Austin study, the group claims the pollutants remaining in that treated sewage could cause algae growth for several miles along the Long Branch tributary of the creek.

Legislators pass changes to 10-year tax abatement, impose new construction tax; send bills to Kenney

Philadelphia legislators approved changes to the 10-year tax abatement program and a new tax on residential construction on Thursday, sending the bills to Mayor Jim Kenney’s desk. The trio of tax bills are expected to raise revenues to back the issuance of a $400 million bond to fund an initiative supporting affordable housing, small businesses and commercial corridor revitalization. All three bills would go into effect in January 2022. The Kenney administration has backed the legislative package. A bill to cut the 10-year tax abatement for new commercial and industrial construction by 10% passed unanimously. A second bill would levy a 1% construction tax on residential projects. The bill passed by a vote of 14-3, with Councilmembers Allen Domb, David Oh and Brian O’Neill voting against it.
