While our housing supply needs to grow in order to meet the demand for housing, this growth should in no way, shape, or form be subsidized by the city. All incoming developers need to pay their share of property taxes as well as the necessary utility fees to the city of Austin. Affordable units should be between 30-40% of MFI and the density bonus fees need to be raised considerably if developers want to bypass implementing the appropriate number of affordable housing units.
