Title A name given to the resource Redefining Community: Neighborhood Advocacy and Urban Development in Austin, Texas Subject The topic of the resource Urban planning—Texas—Austin; Zoning—Texas—Austin; Neighborhood associations—Texas—Austin; Community development—Texas—Austin; Displacement—Texas—Austin; Environmentalism—Texas—Austin; Urbanization—Texas—Austin; East Austin (Tex.); South Austin (Tex.) Description An account of the resource This collection brings together materials documenting how community groups across Austin responded to urban planning, zoning, and development in the mid- to late twentieth century. Drawing on records from the Austin History Center, the collection includes zoning and land-use maps, neighborhood association materials from the South River City Citizens (SRCC), publications produced by East Town Lake Citizens, and materials related to environmental advocacy efforts associated with figures such as Wayne Gronquist and Betty Brown. These sources show how planning decisions shaped neighborhoods through zoning classifications, redevelopment efforts, and environmental concerns, while also capturing how residents and advocacy groups interpreted and responded to those changes. Materials in this collection document community concerns over development, displacement, and environmental preservation, and show how residents organized through meetings, mapping, public outreach, and coalition-building to influence city planning processes. Together, these items illustrate how communities were not only defined by planning policies but were actively constructed and negotiated through collective action across different groups.

Title A name given to the resource Selected zoning and planning maps from South River City Citizens Records, 1970 Subject The topic of the resource Zoning—Texas—Austin; Land use—Texas—Austin; Urban planning—Texas—Austin; Neighborhood associations—Texas—Austin; Community development—Texas—Austin Description An account of the resource A selection of maps from the South River City Citizens Records, drawn from the 1970 map files, including a proposed zoning map identifying residential classifications such as “A,” “B,” and “C” districts, and a City of Austin Planning and Growth Management Department land use map labeled “Sector 12” (June 1980) showing categories such as single-family (SF), duplex, and commercial use. The selection also includes annotated neighborhood maps produced and used by the South River City Citizens (SRCC), including a map labeled “Area 5” with a corresponding legend identifying land uses such as transportation, utilities, and multi-family housing, as well as a parcel-level map labeled “Area 6” and “Area 7.” These materials document how official zoning and land-use frameworks structured the neighborhood, while also showing how SRCC created its own internal geographic divisions for coordination and advocacy, reflecting a localized interpretation of space in Austin.
