How a Texas Affordable Housing Law is Overwhelming the Sewage Pipes
About this episode
The episode discusses the impact of a new Texas law on affordable housing and its potential consequences on local infrastructure in Plano.
A new state law will make it easier for developers to bring multi-family housing to a neighborhood near you. While the goal is affordability, some city leaders are warning about unintended consequences, such as unchecked growth that overwhelms local infrastructure. We headed to the Dallas suburb of Plano for this episode of Y’all-itics, where the Jasons learned flushing toilets could be a sign of development danger. GUEST Christina Day, City of Plano Director of Planning
