City of Austin

Austin’s Future
Is in YOUR Hands!

You Gave Us The Pieces…
Come Help Us Put Them Together

Over 5,000 Austinites told us they wanted to see a more diverse population, a more diverse mix of housing types, more and better ways of getting around the city, and local business growth. We used that input to craft a vision statement for Austin’s future. Now, we want to know what you think of that vision.  We are facing the startling reality that Austin is expected to double in population over the next 30 years. You’ll have a hands-on opportunity to identify how we should grow and what transportation infrastructure we’ll need. It’s your chance to interact directly with your fellow Austinites as we chart a course for Austin’s future. It’s up to YOU to make it happen!

HousingWorks

HousingWork’s Sixth Annual Fall Housing Summit will consider how Austin’s Comprehensive Plan can help Austin realize a vision of “all kinds of housing in all parts of town.”  The Summit is free and will be held on November 14th at the Senior Activity Center at 2874 Shoal Crest.

Panelists will address the relationship between neighborhood planning, education, transportation and other aspects of community planning.  Participants will consider how we can achieve  “integrated planning” for all parts of town that recognizes the interconnectivity of schools, jobs, services, health, transportation and housing.  Register at HousingWorksSummit@yahoo.com.
