The highest volume of zoning activity in Austin occurs along the I-35 corridor as the highway reconstruction opens redevelopment opportunities, in the Domain and North Burnet areas for mixed-use densification, and in East Austin and South Lamar for VMU and ADU applications.

Key zoning terms for Austin include VMU (Vertical Mixed Use), ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit), rezoning, conditional use permit, site plan, land development code amendment, PUD, and compatibility waiver. ZoneWire tracks all of these automatically across every Austin governing body.
