HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS MONTH

FROM DEEDA: Happy New Year! You’re reading our Annual Community Guide, which we hope will catch you up on the biggest projects, programs and decisions heading into 2023, aka your survival guide should you feel like you’ve been living under a rock or just moved to the neighborhood. Our front-page story details the Brodie Oaks Shopping Center redevelopment, which aims to place a Domain-like shopping experience where Ben White and South Lamar boulevards meet. Area growth shows no sign of slowing down. Deeda Lovett, GENERAL MANAGER

FROM DARCY: Texas loves elections. How many times did you end up at the polls in 2022? Five if you are an Austin resident who voted in the primary, regular and run o elections? Six times if you were in District 4 a year ago? Whether the candidate you chose won, or if your council member is new or returning, our front-page story serves as a primer for where Austin ocials stand on some of the most pressing issues of our city. Darcy Sprague, EDITOR

CORRECTION: Volume 15, Issue 9 On Page 31, the spelling of the P. Terry’s Burger Stand CEO’s name is Todd Coerver.
