Which Way, Austin? Imagine Austin Community Forums
¿Hacia dónde se dirije Austin? Foro de diseño de la comunidad de Austin Serie
By Samantha Park, City of Austin
Traducción de: Carolina Modesto
Help plan our city’s future. The City of Austin is creating a new comprehensive plan, looking ahead to 30
years of growth and change. In a fall series of workshops, September 20-October 6, the City of Austin is
asking the community to help shape a Preferred Scenario for Future Growth. Voice your concerns for how
jobs, housing, development and open space should fit
together. Everyone’s ideas are welcome.
Ústed, puede participar en la planificación de nuestra
ciudad. En la actualidad el cabildo de Austin elabora un
plan integral con miras a 30 años
de crecimiento y desarrollo, por
lo que aprovechará la temporada de otoño para presentar
una serie de talleres desde el 20
de septiembre hasta el 6 de octubre; donde usted podrá expresar su opinión acerca de cómo
han de interactuar y encajar en
nuestro diario vivir nuestros hogares, lugares de trabajo,
desarrollo económico y las áreas verdes.
Your responses on a survey, which will remain open
through October, will inform the plan. Forum Activities include taking a survey, views displays and maps,
contrast the four imagined scenarios with the growth
trend we’re on now and talk with planners, city staff,
and community task force members. Can’t attend a
forum in person? You can read, review and comment
on everything online at www.ImagineAustin.net, or
review documents at an Austin Public Library.
Some of the conversations the City of Austin wants to
have are:
How can we invest in smart, sustainable ways?
What investments best support our Vision Statement?
Where should more people live? Work? Play?
Which scenario will be best for our grandkids?
October Forum Dates:
Oct. 4 5-8 p.m. Bowie High School, 4103 W. Slaughter Ln.
Oct. 5 5-8 p.m. Dell Jewish Community Center, 7300 Hart Ln.
Oct. 6 5-8 p.m. Reagan High School, 7104 Berkman Dr.
Su participación en una encuesta que estará disponible
durante el mes de octubre, contribuirá con la formación
del plan con el mejor escenario de desarrollo. Entre las
actividades en el Forum se encuentran llenar una encuesta, observar las exhibiciones y mapas, hacer un contraste
de los cuatro escenarios imaginarios con el ritmo de crecimiento que tenemos actualmente y conversar con los
urbanistas, personal del cabildo y los miembros comunitarios. Si no puede estar presente en los foros, ústed
puede leer, revisar y hacer comentarios por el Internet
en la página Web www.ImagineAustin.net o revisar los
documentos en una biblioteca pública.
Algunas de las inquietudes que desea presentar el Cabildo de Austin son:
¿Cómo podemos hacer inversiones de manera inteligente y sostenible?
¿Cuáles inversiones ofrecen un mejor apoyo a nuestra
visión y objetivos?
¿Dónde deberían vivir, trabajar o jugar más personas?
¿Cuál sería el mejor escenario para nuestros nietos?

Important Factors that Affect Your Credit Score
Factores importantes que Afectan su Puntaje Crediticio
In the last newsletter of GAHCC Noticias, we mentioned that 65% of
your credit score is made from your level of debt and your payment
history. The third factor is your credit history. The longer you have an
account open the more credible you are, therefore the higher your
score will be. The fourth and fifth factor are the number of inquiries
for new credit (10%) and the diversification of your credit (10%). These
are where the majority of us mistakenly do not apply for a refinance
or a consolidation of revolving accounts because of the fallacy that
“it significantly lowers your credit score”. If you do not have a fixed
simple interest account, your score will actually improve when you
consolidate because now you have more diversification of credit in
use. At the same time you are lowering the level of debt in your old
accounts, you could also have a better interest rate. Therefore, your
gains are much greater over time. The most important thing is that
you have a plan to become completely debt free.
En la edición anterior de GAHCC Noticias, mencionamos que el 65% del
puntaje está comprendido por su nivel de deudas y su historia de pago, de
que tratan estos factores y cómo hacer para mejorarlos. El factor número
tres es su historia de crédito y básicamente esto quiere decir que mientras
más viejita sea su tarjeta o línea de crédito más credibilidad usted tiene
y su puntaje va a aumentar. Los factores cuatro y cinco son el número de
aplicaciones para nuevas líneas de crédito (10%) y la diversificación de su
tipo de crédito (10%) es aquí donde la mayoría de la gente comete el error de no aplicar para refinanciamientos o intentar consolidar tarjetas de
crédito a una deuda de interés simple por un tiempo menor por la falsa
creencia de que eso “afecta su crédito significativamente”. Si usted no
tiene una deuda fija entre sus cuentas en muchos casos su crédito va a ser
beneficiado al consolidarlas porque tiene más diversificación y además
liberaría el nivel de deudas de esas cuentas, podría tener menor tasa de
interés y por tanto la ganancia es mucho mayor a largo plazo. Lo importante es tener un plan que le ayude salir completamente de deudas.
