Finally! For years, 311 has incorrectly said that "graffiti is up to the owner" and that's not what code lays out.

They currently only refer reports for tracking to #austinpublichealth

Do you know how many acres Cards Against Humanity purchased in Cameron County TX?

The $15M lawsuit against SpaceX describes a “plot” of land costing $2,250,000.

It’s egregious for SpaceX to trespass and dump massive amounts of gravel on their land, on purpose. Shows abusive character of Elon Musk.

Agreed, I believe many city employee movements could be done with ebikes/transit vs cars altogether and it meets any current mayor's fitness challenge

Casar began as a labor and immigrant rights organizer in Texas.
At 25, he was elected to Austin City Council.
By 32, he was in Congress.
Now he leads one of the most populous Democratic caucuses in the House, with over 100 members.
His roots aren’t in D.C., they’re in the streets.

Thank you and could we please ask for a full commitment to an electric city fleet? ⚡

Especially of full size gas guzzlers like at @austinwater and at @austinenergy.bsky.social, Code Enforcement, etc? 🙏

This will pay dividends in public health and air pollution reduction as well as cost savings!

64.5% of $1.5B general fund is police (36.7%), fire (17.8%), & EMS (10%). Predominately paid for by property taxes, but also sales taxes, utility transfers from Austin Energy, & miscellaneous revenue. Remainder of total budget of $6.3B is $4.8B paid for by fees, etc., & is self-supporting. /2
