The City of Austin Planning and Zoning Department, often in collaboration with other departments and outside organizations, hosts a series events throughout the year to promote and implement the policies and vision set forth in the comprehensive plan. The Covid-19 pandemic, associated social distancing requirements and budgetary issues forced the cancellation of five speaker series and one walking tour for the season.  We hope to be back in 2021 to discuss relevant topics that are important to our city through shared dialogue and mutual learning.

​

Topics covered last year included displacement and gentrification, mobility justice, solutions to ending homelessness, Census 2020, and residential solar energy systems.
