Austin's front setback requirements should be reduced to 10' or less under HOME 2, as the Planning Commission recommends. @chitovela3 deftly addressed staff concerns last week (full video below) & showed Council should adopt PC’s recommendations. 🧵 youtube.com/watch?v=O8aoDy…

AUSTIN SINGLE-STAIR APARTMENTS! Austin city council just passed a resolution directing staff to look at single-stair reform as a part of their 2024 building code update! This is a MASSIVE step toward enabling more missing-middle and affordable housing to be built in Austin!
Meet and greet CMs @VanessaForATX and @CMChitoVela as they discuss Austin's upcoming transit-supportive zoning changes and their reelection plans. We'll also have special guest @joseforatx joining us. See you there May 6! RSVP: actionnetwork.org/events/meet-gr…

This is just the beginning. Minimum lot size reduction, compatibility reform, & transit-oriented development are right around the corner, and even after our work will still continue!😤

SINGLE STAIR REFORM The comment period for Austin’s amendments to the IBC (international building code) ends tomorrow! If we can convince them that single stair reform is important, this could unlock tons of housing! Please help us with a comment! 👇 publicinput.com/w1676?lang=en
Make no mistake, Ken Paxton & his local allies don't make legal threats to light rail in the interest of Austinites. Voters made clear that they want rail, & legal threats only increase costs & delays. Project Connect must be allowed to move forward! kut.org/transportation…
Zo Qadri is leading the fight for abundant, affordable homes and climate justice in Austin, authoring the item that eliminated our parking mandates and fighting against I-35 expansion. He recently lost access to his account and lost his followers- give him a follow! @zoforaustin

I’m excited for the #ATX planning commission meeting tonight discussing minimum lot sizes! Austin has the opportunity to legalize small lot homes common in many American cities. In this video, I discuss how these and other housing reforms are very good for the Latino community.
Big news for Wampus! Austin City Council took up a resolution expanding UNO, the neighborhood overlay that lets West Campus build taller/denser. Also limits windowless bedrooms and fixes issues with SMART housing. A massive benefit for residents, thank you City Council!

Meet with City staff at an open house this Wednesday to learn about proposed changes to the City’s Land Development Code that will make our city more walkable, transit-supportive, + environmentally friendly. 🏘 📆 April 17, 6pm 📍 Austin Central Library 👉 SpeakUpAustin.org/f5610
More homes near transit could mean more federal funding for light rail! Watch Bill McCamley of @forward_transit explain:
David's recent pro-housing pro-transit takes have been 🔥 and now he's advocating for a high-speed rail to Austin?

Amazing show of support today for more housing & walkability near transit! Thank you to everyone who made their voice heard at the public hearing. We're one major step closer to passing the equitable transit-oriented development overlay, compatibility reform, & HOME Phase 2!

That’s why Austin became the largest city in the country to remove parking mandates. Fighting for a more affordable city that is less car centric is what we do here in Austin 🤠
One thing not talked about a lot when it comes to affordable housing is how needing to add parking due to local laws and our cities being so car centric can add 10-15% to the cost of building. Way more if it’s underground parking.
Austin is on the way to unlocking family-friendly (and all kinds of people-friendly) housing! ryanpuzycki.com/p/cities-arent…

Austin may be next up to join the single-stair club 😎 Super pumped for this resolution.
🏢 a resolution that would direct staff to consider single stair reform as a part of the 2024 technical building code update 🧑🌾 a resolution related to policies that support communities built with a working farm or community garden as a focus (2/3)
Years ago, I lived in an apartment building with 3 stairwells like this in Germany. Excellent use of land and promoted neighbor cohesiveness. The efficient use of land enabled building a killer playground out back. #atxcouncil @PaigeForAustin @KirkPWatson @GregCasar
