Council asks Hutto Co-Op developer to revisit agreement
HUTTO – The meeting was requested by developer MA Partners LLC and Butler Financial and was open to the public. In opening remarks, project financial lead Matt Harris provided Council with several updates including the news that— after a year of talks— Jack Allen’s Kitchen officially signed a lease last week to build a sit-down restaurant in The Hutto Co-Op. Marking its sixth location in the Austin area, the iconic upscale eatery would be located toward the north end of the 35-acre walkable development, away from Hwy 79 and closer to Hutto City Hall; it will be built in tandem with the first of multiple parking garages at The Co-Op. Harris said Jack Allen’s would open in approximately 18 months. 11/23/2022 07:12 AM
