Imagine Austin: Panel on Affordability

Late notice here, but there is an Imagine Austin panel tomorrow (4/14) evening (from 5p-6:30p) titled Affordability in Austin: Understanding the Potential Impact of Secondary Dwelling Units on Affordability.  According to the event page, you will find answers to:
  • Can I build an alley flat/secondary dwelling unit to help pay property taxes?
  • Is my neighbor’s new secondary unit impacting my property taxes?
  • Could these units help to provide housing for lower-income people in our community?
  • Could these units provide more options for my family at different stages in life?
  • Could construction of more of these units provide more affordable housing options in Austin’s neighborhoods? 
The panelists include:
  • Chief Appraiser of the Travis Central Appraisal District
  • President of the Austin Neighborhoods Council
  • Builder of affordable secondary units
  • University of Texas professor who specializes in secondary housing/affordability issues.
The event will be held at the Town Lake Center at 721 Barton Springs Rd.  Visit the event page for links to more information about Secondary Dwelling Units (aka Additional Dwelling Units or Granny Flats).
