Some neighbors see progress, others see peril in South Lamar rezoning - Austin Monitor
Briefly

The Planning Commission approved a rezoning request for Density Bonus 90 (DB90) during a July 22 meeting, seeking over 300 housing units near South Lamar Boulevard. The site, currently occupied by South Lamar Business Park, is considered underutilized. The project aims to include ground floor commercial space. The proposal involves multiple rezonings to facilitate a larger development encompassing several smaller lots. City staff and some neighbors supported the project due to its unit density and location along the Imagine Austin corridor, reflecting a growing neighborhood's needs.
