Austin's Citywide Density Bonus Code Overhaul, affecting multiple council districts, aims to refine development rules for mixed-use projects citywide. Completion is slated for October 1, 2025.

The overhaul targets the city's density bonus code, impacting how mixed-use buildings integrate into neighborhoods. Despite enhancing housing opportunities, it excludes affordable units, focusing instead on code adjustments for future development needs.
