The new code applies best practices and contemporary tools to help maintain the aspects of Austin we love, while positioning Austin to better address our challenges. The new code provides an alternative to issues brought up in the Code Diagnosis, such as: complicated and inefficient processes and procedures, affordable housing challenges, and regulations that increase car dependency; while carrying forward parts of the old code that work, such as: standards that maintain neighborhood character as well as nationally recognized environmental protections.
