Neighbors form PACE Residents for Land and Water Protection to oppose Milestone plan
Summary
Speakers announced a new neighborhood group, PACE Residents for Land and Water Protection, affiliated with the Greater Edwards Aquifer Alliance, to coordinate opposition to the proposed Milestone development and to collect signatures and materials for the City of Austin review.
Carol Cooneyton told the council her group has organized to coordinate local responses to the developer's proposal and announced the group's name and alliance membership. "We have a name that's called PACE Residents for Land and Water Protection," she said, noting the group is the 60th member of the Greater Edwards Aquifer Alliance and has materials to distribute to council and staff.
The group plans to focus on traffic safety, water recharge protection and public outreach to encourage residents to submit formal comments to the City of Austin. Speakers asked the city to pause any local endorsements until Austin completes its formal review and residents have had a chance to review engineering and environmental analyses.
