Residents push back on new city of Austin homeless camp plan
City of Austin now has two possible locations for homeless camps
Community residents who live near the two proposed locations for homeless camps are pushing back on the idea.
AUSTIN, Texas - An old parking lot on Manor Road is one of two locations the city of Austin is considering for a homeless campground.
Several years ago, passengers who flew into Mueller Airport would go to the lot in East Austin between Pershing Dr. and Greenwood Ave. and get rental cars. Stephen Walker says he once worked on the lot. He is worried, what happened around city hall and along local roadways, will now happen here.

The Austin Symphonic Band (ASB) was founded in 1981 by local brass and woodwind musicians. Only three conductors have led ASB: Frank Simon, Randol Bass, and the current Music Director, Richard Floyd, who has served the band since 1986. Bill Haehnel was appointed Assistant Music Director in 2003.
Named the Official Band of the City of Austin by the Austin City Council in June of 1989, ASB has performed for City events such as the dedication of the Barbara Jordan passenger terminal at Austin Bergstrom International Airport and the Governor’s Welcome Home of the Troops from the Gulf War “Desert Storm” in 1991. ASB also works closely with local schools to provide mentoring, tutoring, performance opportunities, and free tickets to students.
