The Planning and Development Department recently launched the Livable Places initiative, which aims to update Houston’s development codes to create more opportunities to strengthen and preserve Houston neighborhoods. The Livable Places Action Committee is reviewing existing Residential Buffering Ordinance requirements and discussing the potential for amendments based on public comments.
Let the Committee know about your experiences with Residential Buffering, which applies to tall structures built next to single-family homes. Share your feedback using an interactive map tool. The deadline has been extended to Jan. 6, 2021.
