I'm not sure it was the best plan but the status quo sure isn't gonna work out.

Bring back the Dillo!

What a mess either way.

I actually mostly liked the Zilker Park Vision Plan. I see Austin is still intent on the idea that if they don't build it, people won't come.

The group opposing ZVP is highly vocal. Their group pushed lies to the city council, mayor, and the people. Misrepresenting facts.

Fuck the “Save Our Springs” organization which consists of mostly NIMBY assholes.

Fuck Watson. Fuck Interim City Manager, Jose Garza.

My suspicion would be there was a story behind this, but can you give more information? Links to stories, actual groups? Some of the lies they pushed? Cussing about it doesn’t do any good.
