RECA recognizes that while Austin is a major city in Central Texas, we must think and act regionally to grow in a responsible and sustainable manner. We support strategies and solutions that promote economic vitality for the region and we actively monitor the policy decisions of regional entities including:
County Commissioners Courts in the five-country region
Other organizations that have an impact on the Central Texas region
RECA's Regional Updates program provides members with a quarterly opportunity to drill deeper into a wide range of topics through guest speakers and events in surrounding communities. Generally, Regional Updates feature a local elected official discussing the latest updates for the city followed by updates from RECA members who have projects in the area. All meetings take place outside of the RECA office in nearby communities. There's no need to sign up to participate — notices for upcoming Regional Updates are sent to all RECA members. Learn more about those here.
