Affordability Council

The Affordability Strategic Council focuses on defining and measuring issues affecting affordability in Central Texas including housing and beyond.

Chair: Sarah Andre, Structure Development

Staff Liaison: Paulette Gibbins

“There’s a reason I make ULI my number one priority when it comes to professional development and engagement, and it starts with the people you’re surrounded by. They are the best and brightest minds in the industry, and they are committed to creating and championing a built environment that promotes prosperity, inclusiveness and opportunities for all Austinites.”
