East side has made such beautiful progress with the beautiful new townhomes that have been built - why would the city do such a thing - I guess someone is lining their pockets with money! Money is the root of all EVIL and it's so prevalent when it comes to city officials in the US OF A!

This will further limit the east side's recent growing economy and will drastically affect many new businesses, home communities, and potential investors to further grow our great city. We will also lose millions in property tax revenue that would benefit Houston and the school districts within the area.

This map is good but does not account for Cleme Manor, MDI site, or East River's affordable units. Dont make the same historical mistake of craming Houston's government housing in the same small area and expect a different outcome.

We recently moved to EADO from Katy hoping this neighborhood will improve. We are happy to see how quick this entire neighborhood is transforming. The city have to definitely address the homeless problem around downtown but not by bringing low income housing to this area, this will be a huge mistake. I say no to both proposals

Having recently purchased new residence in the area, I am naturally very upset to hear of this proposal from Housing Development.

Don't get me wrong - it would be a compassionate thing to do ... but it would be more beneficial for those whom we need to help to develop this area with as many businesses as possible to bring in the city more revenue. Please consider this from a realistic point of view - not simply your heart. Paradoxically you would be doing low income families a disservice.

Request the COH reconsider establishing more low income housing in the EaDo area and/or providing property tax exemptions. Doing so shifts more tax burden onto the remaining homes in EaDo.

It wouldn't be so bad if this were for people who were truly homeless due to conditions beyond their control but this is not all low income and much of it is filled with criminals.

No no no no. No tax exemption. I'm good with low income housing, but not developer deals. Uh uh.

No to both communities. These represent low income housing not “affordable” market rent with income restrictions.

Stop concentrating low income development in one area, it will defeat the purpose of the project!

Affordable housing should also be located in other parts of the city. Montrose. River Oaks. West University. We all need to share this responsibility, yet the EastEnd takes much of this.

We already have 60% of the total amount of halfwY houses.
