Guiding Principles
Liveable City is guided by its mission to safeguard the long-term social, environmental, and economic well being of all Austinites. To this end, we believe that:
- An educated and informed citizenry is essential to improving our community’s quality of life.
- Individual community issues are best addressed as part of a complex whole, acknowledging the critical relationships between such issues as affordable housing, education, transportation, the environment and the economy.
- Every Austin resident deserves access to an affordable home, a good education, a decent job, accessible transportation, adequate health care and other basic elements that comprise a livable community.
Liveable City is working to develop a specific set of principles for each of its priority issues to guide and evaluate proposed policies or programs. Please check back to this page for updates.
