Their apartment and child development center in East Austin was built with one-time funding from the city's 2014 housing bond. And more than a decade later, they've helped hundreds of moms and their kids improve their lives and grow into self-sufficient leaders in the community!

Enjoyed meeting the board of @JeremiahATX and learning about their work supporting single moms with housing, childcare, and support to earn their college degrees.

@data_atx You should like this one! In the 22 years @foundcom has been operating these centers, over 313k returns have been filed, with more than $520 million put in the pockets of clients. That's money to keep people fed, in their homes, and put into our local economy!

@Ratherocity @data_atx Certainl utility issues are confidential because they are competitive matters. Disclosure of this information would put Austin Energy at a competitive disadvantage in the ERCOT market.

@Ratherocity @data_atx As stated before, this was discussed in executive session and as such we cannot disclose the details, including our or anyone else’s vote. What is public is my item next week which gets AE to develop a policy so that these peakers won’t result in more emissions than without them.

@Ratherocity @data_atx Love when we just make things up. I was asked at the meeting if it was unanimous and I told him the same thing I’ve told everyone else - our discussions in executive session are confidential and I couldn’t speak to it. I guess we still haven’t learned about the game of telephone.

@Will_FosterVibe @data_atx Well since you asked - we’ve nearly doubled crisis and housing beds. The # of people entering homelessness decreased last year, and we’re getting smarter about keeping people in their homes or quickly diverting them out of homelessness, which are cheaper and more effective.

Councilman @RyanAlter had a great idea in a meeting with Travis county and AISD County, city, and AISD all have their own maintenance yards to store stuff, can we just pool our resources and share? For context: The parks dept wants $85m for maintenance yards in a future bond

Apartment rents in Austin are at roughly 2017 cost levels. In other words, if you rent an apartment today, you would be paying about the same as 7-8 years ago. New apartment deliveries are slowing this year. Could be the bottom of rent declines this yr or next.

Austin TX is now back to pre-pandemic apartment rents. Down 21% from peak in summer of 2022. $1,636/month --> $1,288/month (I'm now even seeing 2BRs in some apartments at sub-$1,000) This rental correction is due to a sharp drop in migration/demand, combined with a surge of new apartment development. At this point, Austin has its cheapest rents on record relative to income.
