South Lamar open house planned
Thursday, November 13, 2014 by Elizabeth Pagano
Speaking of South Lamar, one of the most contentious areas of development in the city recently has been the South Lamar area. Residents — and the South Lamar Mitigation Study — worry that the rush of development without proper infrastructure has led to flooding and traffic problems. Next month, the city will host an open house to address the traffic portion of those issues, as part of its South Lamar Boulevard Transportation Corridor Study, which is expected to be completed in August 2015. The open house will take place Dec. 10 from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. for businesses and from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. for the public at the Zilker Elementary School Cafeteria, 1900 Bluebonnet Lane.
