Today we broke ground on Memorial Apartments, a new affordable housing project in the heart of the Historic Westside!
This project was possible via the Affordable Housing Bond, and it’s great to see more affordable housing projects come to fruition in District 5 ✋🏼

Thrilled to join San Antonio Ready to Work partner @ProjectQUESTInc in announcing the findings of their 14-year study.

SAWS is investigating/cataloging lead in customer-owned water service lines (the piping that connects a home/business to the public water system) as part of a new program required by the @EPA. Homes built before 1989 can have water service lines that are made of lead material. We need your help to complete San Antonio’s water service line inventory. If your property is listed as “unknown,” SAWS would like to partner with you to determine the material. You may qualify for a free service line inspection by SAWS. Visit saws.org/lead to look up your address and for more info. #ProjectLead
