My latest: During the pandemic, the City of Austin bought several hotels with the intent of turning them into homes for those experiencing homelessness.
Simple, right? The first of those hotels opened this month. It was anything but easy: kut.org/austin/2024-08-28/af…

The City and County just wrapped up its Ice Storm Press Conference. Here's what you need to know 🧵👇🏽
🔌 All power outages are expected to be fixed by 6 PM Friday
🧊 Outages are being caused by unexpected rapid ice accumulation and debris, NOT grid defects...

He’s not comfortable giving a time frame.

We've heard there are rumors flying that Austin Water plans to shut off water. That is not correct. Austin Water's treatment plants are currently operating at normal levels & meeting the community's water demands.
