<div>'''CodeNEXT''' is Austin's first rewrite of its Land Development Code in three decades. It promised to allow more housing choice, more units by right, more walkability, smart growth management, missing middle housing, etc. But so far it seems to mostly be a recodification of existing standards with, if anything, residential entitlements being stripped away on net; to [http://www.aura-atx.org/codenext_mapping_reveals_near_fatal_flaws our read], missing middle remains pretty missing. This is disappointing given the clear recommendations from research on housing policy, as outlined in [https://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/whitehouse.gov/files/images/Housing_Development_Toolkit%20f.2.pdf this report from the Obama Whitehouse]<br />
