On December 7th, Austin City Council will vote on the HOME Initiative, a proposal to allow up to three housing units to be built on single-family lots. The idea is to increase the city's supply of "missing middle" housing, but like so many debates related to housing and land use, the issue is complicated.
In this episode of The Austin Common Radio Hour, host Amy Stansbury interviews several people with an array of perspectives on the issue - Austin City Council Member Leslie Pool, Carmen Llanes (Executive Director of Go Austin/Vamos Austin and a former Austin Planning Commissioner), and Jake Wegmann (who sits on the faculty of the Community and Regional Planning Program at the University of Texas at Austin).
