SMBR’s Plan Room provides paper and electronic access to construction plans and specifications for public and private sector projects in over 100 counties. The public is also invited to access our McGraw-Hill Dodge project database, which features projects from Waco to South Texas, including the Gulf Coast.

Videos of council meetings are available on the ATXN archive page. Copies of older meeting videos are available to the public in the archives of the Austin History Center.

The coordinator conducts annual ADA onsite visits with City departments to review accessibility issues, training needs and initiatives.

Music on Hold is one of the City's fun and unique ways of showcasing Austin’s great music—usually in sixty seconds or less. Anytime someone calls into the City telephone system and placed on hold, they will be listening to a well-curated and licensed playlist of Austin music. 

If interested in having a song featured on Music on Hold, contact Greg Gonzalez for details.

The City of Austin is incredibly proud of our local music culture, and every Austin City Council meeting includes live Music Proclamation Day performances during the lunch hour, which is broadcasted live on ATXN.tv.

Performers are bestowed the honor of a “Music Proclamation Day” with an accompanying certificate and their band name permanently included in the City calendar. These musicians will have their own City of Austin “Day” for the rest of their lives, and many have annual celebrations of their day with fans and supporters. 

To be considered, contact your City of Austin Council Member or the Mayor to make a request. To determine your Austin Council District, look up your home address, then contact the corresponding Austin City Council Member's office. Contact Greg Gonzalez for details.
