San Antonio Realtors Oppose City Growth Sketch
The San Antonio Board of Realtors unanimously adopted a resolution urging the city council to refrain from approving the proposed growth sketch on Thursday. They want amendments to show the sketch as preliminary and not part of the Master Plan, seek no growth limits in the northern city area until the Metcalf and Eddy study concludes, and rely only on current statutes and ordinances to guide growth. The piece notes rallies and fundraising tours in San Antonio lasting three days, with a parade and Alamo rally planned, while Orendain criticizes current work conditions in the Valley.
