The City of Austin on Friday released another iteration of its land development code; these rules dictate what can be built in the city, how much can be built and where. The process has taken nearly eight years and cost more than $10 million.
The city is hosting public meetings for residents to learn and ask questions about the new code. You can also sign-up for a one-on-one meeting with city staff, which you’ll need to register for ahead of time.
Here are the meetings taking place over the next month:
Citywide Meetings
Oct. 18 – Austin City Hall (third floor), 1-8 p.m.
Residents will be able to see models of various proposed zonings.
Oct. 19 – Conley-Guerrero Senior Activity Center, 10 a.m.-2 p.m.
