Growth Sketch Adopted by San Antonio Officials After Months of Debate
After four hours of discussion the San Antonio City Council approved a growth sketch guiding residential expansion through the year 2000. The plan, amended by the Planning Commission, sets a transition policy and limits density symbols, drawing sharp opposition from developers and some chambers of commerce. Proponents cite core master plan steps and a framework for future housing, while critics argue it overreaches free market housing and delays urban growth.
