So much happening in Austin and so much for us to know. Come to MBC for breakfast and to hear from City of Austin Mayor, Steve Adler.
About our speaker:
Steve Adler was sworn into office in January 2015 and his focus as mayor has primarily been on stemming the affordability crisis and worsening traffic.
On affordability, Mayor Adler and the Council created a 6% homestead exemption in 2015 to provide a property tax break to homeowners, raising it to 8% in 2016. Under Adler, the Council also increased the senior and disabled property tax exemption to $82,500 and approved a settlement with Austin Energy in August 2016 that lowered electric rates for everyone in town. HUD Secretary Julián Castro also recognized Mayor Adler for completing the Mayors’ Challenge to End Veteran Homelessness. On mobility, Mayor Adler convened a broad community coalition to win support of the Smart Corridor mobility bond before the Council in August 2016.
