Openhouse planned for Plaza Saltillo

- — MARGARET NICKLAS, AMERICAN STATESMAN

The Capital Metropolit­an Transporta­tion Authority will hold an open house from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Tuesday at the Terrazas Branch Library, 1105 E. Cesar Chavez St., to share informatio­n and receive comments on the top four proposals to redevelop the Plaza Saltillo district. The goal of the redevelopm­ent process is to transform the area into a revenue-producing, transit-oriented, mixed-use area that serves the public.

Four teams and their proposals were selected as finalists in a competitiv­e process by the authority’s board of directors. Members of the public may talk to team members and offer written comments at the open house. Final selection is anticipate­d for later this month.

Plaza Saltillo is bounded by Interstate 35, Comal Street, East Fourth Street and East Fifth Street. Ten acres of its 11-acre area are targeted for redevelopm­ent.
