Outdated land use rules give us outdated results. The Church of Scientology has added space to their building on Guad and to adhere to the old code (has been fixed to nix parking requirements in West Campus) they had to build a garbage surface parking lot that they didn't want and we don't need.
Hard to believe in 2020 we'd still have four council members blocking Austin from tossing our 36 year old land use code and adopting one that promotes compact and connected development that fosters tax base, transit, walking, sustainability and more housing near employment centers. Feels like Groundhog Day...
