While we're on the subject of Nimbys...

By the way, I do not feel bad about calling them Nimbys. You can stop something from getting built if you complain enough, but no one can stop people from moving here. Calling them "no-growthers" would suggest they have the ability to stop growth. No one can do that.

Austin City Council approaches vote on overarching growth plan

By Marty Toohey

Published: 8:44 p.m. Sunday, June 10, 2012

The City Council could adopt the plan Thursday. The vote follows a cantankerous two-year drafting process freighted with the hopes, dreams, fears and mistrust of the citizens who were involved in its creation.

"It's an elitist plan," neighborhood activist Jeff Jack said.
