Government Affairs, Rolling up RECSA’s sleevesWe’re hard at work on the UDC amendment process and can’t rest yet!

The UDC is amended every five years and amendments are proposed by the citizens of San Antonio, technical experts, and City staff. When a proposed amendment makes it past the Planning Commission, it gets sent to the Planning Commission TAC… RECSA plays an important role in this process as countless RECSA members have served on committees that reviewed amendments in 2021 before going to the Planning Commission… PLEASE SUBSCRIBE AS A MEMBER TO ACCESS FULL COUNCIL MONITOR..

RECSA has been successful in our efforts to block amendments that would be detrimental to our industry…

Programs, Great programs setting records for RECSA. Their revenue stream supports our critical industry advocacy efforts.

The Programs Committee has been busy holding five wonderful events that have generated tremendous profit…

In May, RECSA will be hosting three experts all talking about the airport, the port, the new GreaterSATX powerhouse, and what they are all doing regarding economic development for the entire city… Then in August, RECSA will have a members-only debate to discuss the future of this office and how the new county judge will interact with our industry.
