Greetings,
Thank you for your continued interest in recent discussions related to the creation of a Contractor Registration program for the City of Austin. As a reminder, stakeholder engagements in 2021 focused on the possibility of a contractor registration program and explored potential approaches associated with bonding and insurance, incentives for participation, and metrics and compliance.
Development Services Department (DSD) staff received valuable and meaningful feedback, and we are considering that input in the recommendations we continue to refine for consideration by Austin City Council.
We value your time and participation, and we want to keep you informed. Staff is working to schedule a briefing with Council’s Housing and Planning Committee to receive further input and direction before providing recommendations to Council. We will continue to keep you updated and will post updates to the project’s SpeakUp Austin page as we move forward through this process.
Sincerely,
City of Austin Development Services Department
