AMD Builds Campus Amid Opposition

2006

Advanced Micro Devices builds a new campus in the sensitive Barton Springs Watershed despite community protest, a lawsuit, and in direct defiance of Austin's adopted Smart Growth policies.  

If AMD can locate in the Barton Springs watershed, why not other large employers? Twenty five years of community planning will be thrown out the window. No good can come of any project of this scale that begins with so much arrogance, deception, and disrespect for the community.
