The Totally Awesome AusChron Newscast is In the Zone
The Domain, drug murders, and DWIs
By Jordan Smith and Wells Dunbar, 9:15AM, Thu. Aug. 26, 2010
Zoning matters, that is, as the Totescast gets into the Domania coming before City Council this week. Ordinances allowing an impervious cover swap and an exception to the big box ordinance at the mixed-use destination may inspire discussion this Thursday.
Then our attentions turn to the police and public safety beat, with updates on the guilty plea from James "Ricky" Thompson, indicted for a double drug murder in the West Campus, and the DWI arrest of Bastrop police chief David Board. As always, Jordan Smith and Wells Dunbar are conducting the field tests.
