We all love Austin's parks, but we need more affordable housing. Glad to talk with KXAN about how Austin's fees, which are already 186% higher than other Texas cities, impact affordability.

We are lucky to have such a good park system here in Austin, but the city has to take a comprehensive look at how fees like this one combined with all the other regulatory barriers to housing impact affordability.
