Austin City Council may be ready to end land development code fight

A drawn-out struggle to write new rules that govern land use in Austin ended 2020 the same way it began: with a power-shifting victory for property owners who are resistant to multi-family homes popping up in their single-family neighborhoods.
A pair of game-changing events - a court judgement against the city in March and an upset in the City Council runoff election in December - have made it so that neither side in a multi-year fight on the City Council has much of an upper hand right now. That rebalance of power could lead to negotiations heating back up and the council hammering out an agreement in 2021. ....

Letters: Texans pay for Paxton's nonsense

Federal officials are investigating allegations of bribery, abuse of office and other crimes involving Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton
Texans pay for Paxton s
abuse of the AG s office
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton s suit against Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin and Georgia to keep those states from casting their electoral votes (was) a pathetically pandering bit of self-promotion. It was not even a Hail Mary, according to constitutional scholars. It disrespects all voters and our election process.
As a Texas taxpayer, however, it s worse for what it represents. This is not a wildcatter frittering away his own funds to drill dry hole after dry hole. Paxton was given a gift of public trust by voters and the grace of God, but has squandered his time on pettiness and abused the AG’s office. ....

Qmmunity: Make the Yuletide Gay

Celebrate the holigays like a scream queen with Bulimianne (l) and Louisianna (Photo by Corin Smith)
As a friend of Dorothy, it s only a little fitting that one of my most played Xmas songs this season is Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas. But seriously, Ms. Judy s lyrical longing for
Someday soon we all will be together/ If the fates allow is spot on for how many of us might be feeling. Though we don t celebrate the same traditions, this time of year feels especially fitting for time with lots of loved ones and time to decompress, but right now, that s not the case so much. I, for one, am pretty deflated in the cheer department (and that s not just because I wasted the better part of a Saturday night cringe-LOLing my way through ....

A sizable chunk of Austin’s enormous Robinson Ranch could become the area’s next major site for mixed-use development.
Commercial real estate company JLL Capital Markets announced on December 17 that it had been tapped to market a 193-acre development site at State Highway 45 North and North MoPac Expressway. This parcel with about two-thirds the acreage of the Domain complex is part of the roughly 7,000-acre Robinson Ranch, one of the largest privately owned chunks of undeveloped land in Central Texas. By comparison, Austin-Bergstrom International Airport covers about 4,200 acres. ....

2020 Top 10s - Ten Key Moments in a Year of Endless Texas Election Drama: Vote Early and Often - News

1) Jan. 13: Red Guards Ambush Heidi Sloan The Democratic Socialists of America organizer and candidate for Congress in the TX-25 Democratic primary was waylaid and threatened by militants associated with the ostensibly defunct Maoist group Red Guards Austin, highlighting stress fractures at the leftmost edge of Austin politics even as the influence of DSA-aligned progressives surged in an increasingly deep-blue Travis County. Sloan would lose her race to the also very progressive Julie Oliver, who set up a rematch with GOP incumbent Roger Williams.
2) Feb. 23: Bernie Sanders Rolls Through Town As Texas found itself a pivotal state in the 2020 presidential primary, candidates with Austin connections, including (one-time UT prof) Elizabeth Warren and (friend of Mayor Adler) Pete Buttigieg, made late swings through town, but none drew a bigger crowd than Sanders, who was widely expected to pick up most of the locally awarded delegates and who, at this point, was the national fron ....
