On what is your feeling based? Because I asked around for anybody to make the case against disannexation. I asked a lot. And literally nobody I talked to could even articulate any argument.
As part of the City of Austin, Lost Creek has been on its own for wildfires for a long time.
The neighborhood has been part of the City of Austin since 2015. And throughout that time, the area has water-storage capacity for 1.5 house fires. That's right--if there are two house fires in the area at the same time, there isn't enough capacity in those storage tanks at the corner of Lost Creek and Quaker Ridge to effectively fight both fires.
That fact has been known to the City of Austin and AFD throughout the time Lost Creek has been in the City. And the wildfire danger has also been known to the City. And despite that, and even with bond issue after bond issue, do you knwo what the City has done to address that issue?
Jack.
Shit.
Yeah, my brother--Lost Creek is quite literally on the front line of the Austin metro for wildfires. And being inside the City's corporate limits has done absolutely nothing to provide any protection.
