Austin’s first Heat Resilience Playbook identifies neighborhood-based and citywide projects, programs, and policies that can be leveraged to combat extreme heat. This Playbook seeks to uplift existing City-led heat resilience efforts and outline a series of high-impact actions that the City of Austin can take, with additional funding and resources, to build heat resilience. The actions outlined in this Playbook are structured through a three-pillar approach that focuses on individuals, neighborhoods, and our built and living environment. Strategies and actions identified are informed by Austin’s most recent localized extreme heat data and the latest international best practices. The strategies and actions are also a result of workshops, departmental meetings, office hours, and individual review efforts in collaboration with and consultation from City departments and Austin community members. Each action has associated champions assigned based on interest, capacity, and alignment with existing jurisdiction and responsibilities.
