Dripping Springs is getting hotter every month. Central Texans love the hill country, but often want the amenities of living near other growing commercial and residential developments. They solve their dilema of wanting to live "in the country" or "outside of the big city" by moving to Dripping Springs, which is Southwest of Austin, but just on the border of the city. It would probably only take about 45 minutes to get to Downtown Austin from the outskirts of the small town.
The city's zoning and planning departments have been busy reviewing both commercial and residential real estate project proposals. According to the Austin Statesman, "The biggest indicator of growth is a proposed 55-acre commercial development at the southeast corner of US 290 and RM 12, just across from City Hall. The retail project, by developer Barshop and Oles Co., would be anchored by an H-E-B grocery store and a Home Depot. The city's Planning and Zoning Committee will review the proposal next month and is expected to approve it, City Administrator Michelle Fischer said. The project will be the biggest commercial development in the city's 150-year history."
The Statesman article is pretty comprehensive, so read more about the growth in Dripping Springs.
