CodeNEXT today
Wednesday, June 28, 2017 by Elizabeth Pagano
Though City Council has held its last regular meeting before the July break, it will meet again today for a special-called meeting about CodeNEXT in what has become a new Wednesday afternoon tradition. This time around, Council plans to take up a list of topics (as posted on the City Council Message Board). Those topics are:
• Neighborhood Plans, Small Area Plans and CodeNext
• CodeNext, Imagine Austin and the Imagine Austin Growth Concept Map
• Parking and flooding issues as related to mapping
• Draft 2 format and Zone Naming Convention
And, for those who can’t wait until August to find out what will be taken up then, a spoiler from Mayor Steve Adler, who says he and Mayor Pro Tem Kathie Tovo plan to come back from their break and talk:
• Process and procedure changes in CodeNEXT text
• Infrastructure needs, flooding and planning in the context of CodeNEXT
• Environmental regulations
