Living in Austin myself, I agree completely. A little bit of resiliency is better than large increases in power costs. As it is the mass-migration into Austin is driving costs up for low-income families and fixed-income elderlies here. Driving up their power costs further is another hit they don't need. I'd rather see the city spend some of the property tax windfall they are having helping low income get some resiliency and improving the cities ability to respond to the rare events.
