SUMMARY:In-Person Open House: East Riverside Corridor Planning Initiative
DESCRIPTION:*Please note that because of the weather\, this event was postponed from Jan. 24th to Jan. 31st*  \nJoin the City of Austin for an in-person open house on the East Riverside Corridor Planning Initiative. At this public meeting\, City staff will provide an update on the project\, review the timeline\, and gather your feedback. Spanish interpretation will be provided (Se proporcionará interpretación en español durante el evento de la noche). \nThe East Riverside Corridor Master Plan and Regulating Plan\, adopted in 2010 and 2013\, respectively\, regulate land use in the East Riverside area. In the last decade\, the area has experienced significant growth and investment\, and the corridor will be transformed by a light rail line currently being designed as part of Project Connect. In 2024\, Austin City Council passed Resolution 20240201-054\, directing staff to align the East Riverside Corridor Plan with the City’s Equitable Transit-Oriented Development (ETOD) initiative. Updating the plan is necessary to ensure that it works with the new transit line that is coming\, supports equitable outcomes\, and reflects the evolving needs of the community. \nThe purpose of the East Riverside Corridor Planning Initiative\, which includes an update to the Vision Plan and Regulating Plan\, is to guide the growth and redevelopment of the East Riverside Corridor and to ensure that future changes in the corridor benefit everyone who lives\, works\, and plays along the corridor. Our planning efforts focus on equitable\, transit-oriented\, and walkable development\, and support the inclusion of sustainable practices\, diversity\, maintaining a mix of housing options for various income levels\, improving active transportation and transit accessibility\, and encouraging a wide range of amenities for the community to enjoy. This plan update will ensure that the current and future needs of the community are accounted for\, and the City can facilitate public and private investments in the corridor area. \nThis planning initiative will identify important actions that the City\, property owners\, and the community can take to implement the vision for the East Riverside Corridor. The Vision Plan will offer recommendations concerning planning\, zoning\, and development. It will also include equitable strategies for small business and workforce development\, housing affordability\, mobility\, land use and urban design\, and real estate and financing strategies. The Regulating Plan will define development standards and guidelines for connectivity\, urban design\, safety\, and infrastructure improvements.
