The stretch of Spicewood Springs Road in question is a treasure. Shame on us if it is squandered on our watch and is lost forever for future generations.

Not every vacant space needs to be paved over and built up. We need to keep some open spaces.

This petition is to request that the Austin City Council immediately annex the property at 6315 Spicewood Springs Rd. The property is on Bull Creek, an environmentally fragile area. As citizens, we demand that this area be protected from overdevelopment. We stand against the building of a hotel on that property. We are further requesting that the County stop the proposed hotel development approval for that site, until the City can make an annexation assessment and evaluate impact on traffic by doing a traffic study

Don't build this huge hotel. It will be a major eyesore on this road.

My biggest question is about Spicewood Springs road itself. How can a business plant itself between two high water crossings? We regularly have the road (would be only access to the hotel) closed! Will they also require major changes to the road?

I find it absolutely unbelievable that a 12 storey hotel would even be considered in an environmentally sensitive area. Also, it will make property values go lower in this area and will make the traffic even more unbearable. Sincerely SJ

Spicewood Springs Road cannot handle the increased traffic from an 11-story hotel, not to mention the chaos when the low water bridges flood.

It would be a terrible idea to allow that area to be developed. It is one of the last Jewels preserved pieces of wilderness left in Austin. An all out really call to stop this is vital , some big probable foreign ,non Texan inventory could not have our city's best interest in mind or he would not have bought the land to develop for greed and non SOS ideals. They are Pirates type people at best. SAY not just NO- But HELL NO !!

Already too much traffic for a small road that floods when it rains.

If the City and County allow this 11 story hotel to be built on Bull Creek, it will be a travesty for one of the jewels in Austin's crown. This is going to take a wave of support--MAKE THIS GO VIRAL--to move the politicians to do the right thing---- Protect this iconic, environmentally fragile area--Bull Creek.
