According the City’s press release, Kevin Johns, was recently appointed to be “responsible for implementing economic programs that foster jobs and nurture Austin’s creative industries.”
Judging by that title, Kevin’s role in the future of Austin could have big impact. What’s interesting to me is how much media coverage is given to how tall downtown buildings are allowed to be, all the while hugely important positions like this receive minimal dialogue in the blogosphere. Maybe it’s just where I’m looking.
I’m interested in learning more about this position. Godspeed Kevin. Maybe you can rekindle Villa Muse.
