Austin City Council Draws Your Attention with 1972 Agenda

The City of Austin is holding their Council Meeting at the George Washington Carver Museum and Cultural Center this Thursday in an effort to make the meeting more accessible.

I think agenda item #4 will motivate you to pay them a visit ...

Authorize the negotiation and execution of a ten (10) year lease renewal with one (1) option to extend for an additional ten (10) years with PLANNED PARENTHOOD, INC, for the use of a City-owned .35 acre tract of land improved with a 3,720 square foot free standing building located at 1823 E. 7th Street, for the purpose of operating a family planning clinic. The lease revenue is $1 annually.

Yes, you read that right. Since 1972, the City has leased a building at the corner of 7th & Chicon to Planned Parenthood (PP). The rate is $1/year. The building dates from 1940 and maintenance is paid by PP.

In addition to the $1 annual rate for PP, they pay $400 per fetus for "termination services". The City does this to save our society from the cost of un-wanted poor children. They do it with your tax dollars, and also demand that "caution signs" be placed on "non-terminal" family planning service providers. If you don't provide "comprehensive family planning", then the public must be warned about you. Are you catching on to the trend?

Friend, please pay the Austin City Council a visit this Thursday.
