City Cast Austin

Missing Middle Housing, Mayor Watson’s Warning, and Other Council News

Listen Later

Before Austin City Council took off on Spring Break, it took several actions to address quality of life issues, like boosting the city’s inventory of “missing middle” housing, addressing how we maintain our public art, recommitting to transparency in meet-and-confer processes, and more. Host Nikki DaVaughn is joined by The Austin Common’s Amy Stansbury to get into council’s latest actions — plus unpack what Mayor Kirk Watson means when he warns of “budget asteroids” in Austin’s future.
