We already have an over abundance of low income housing. Low income housing should be distributed all over the city and not concentrated in one area. Try building this is West University and see how well it goes over. They wouldn’t tolerate it, and neither should we!

The NRP Project is across the street from home. You will destroy all culture and substance of Second ward and ruin everyone safety and residential living. I VOTE NO!

Not okay! We live in the east end and pay very expensive taxes to live in a safe, close knit, gated community! Move the project housing elsewhere. Our area is just now developing for business owners and people who own homes here. This is the worst idea ever especially because a new city center is being built that will have expensive shops and the newest one in Houston! Would completely ruin this up and coming area.....

I do not support additional low income housing in the east end. There have already been several low income housing complexes built to date in the east end: Phoenix estates off of 45 near Cullen, New Hope on Harrisburg, and another location on Canal. These are within only a few miles of each other and this does not include all the low income “rooming houses.” This is not reinvestment in community; It is the opposite as it overburdens infrastructure, available tax dollars, resources, and will change the area that people have lived in for decades and bought into recently (my family has lived here since the ‘30s) since they will not be paying into the tax system that supports the area. It should be noted that hcad seems to raise everyone’s property taxes by 10% each year and while I am not low income many of those people whose taxes are consistently going up 10% are low income or struggling. Why not help the HOME OWNERS in the area who are in need rather than developers.

This is will affect the property values of thousands of hardworking east end residents. Please pause and think of how this development will affect hardworking people.

No more low income housing in East End. WE were lied by the authorities. You can trust no one in government. When they want to be elected they promise one thing and when they get elected, they "forget". NO LOW INCOME HOUSING IN EAST END.

Just when the East end was getting it together! Can’t believe property would be tax exempt considering the already meager assets that go to road maintenance

I oppose adding more low income housing to the East End area and the tax exempt for the proposed areas.

This will not be helpful for the already failing schools in the area. The property tax exemption is unacceptable

If you move/build in an area you have to pay the taxes of that area.

With so much interest to make the east end a great family destination this will only hinder what’s going on right now. As if it’s not bad enough right now there are so many other issues going on there . This will devalue our homes.

I’m opposed to the affordable housing proposed for the east end.

Certainly there are other areas to build. We have enough in the area already.
