Group presses fight over AustinOaks PUD
Monday, September 15, 2014 by Elizabeth Pagano
A group calling itself “Red White & Bulldozed” continues to fight the AustinOaks Planned Unit Developments. The group is encouraging like-minded anti-PUD activists to attend City Council candidate forums with leaflets explaining PUD and why, in particular, the AustinOaks PUD is worth fighting. The proposed AustinOaks development is located at MoPac Boulevard and Spicewood Springs Road. Though still in the early stages, developers Twelve Lakes LLC have asked for a 225-foot maximum height to build about 610 town homes, 850,000 square feet of office space and 100,000 square feet of retail space on approximately 31 acres in Northwest Austin.
