What's CITY Talking About?

🖼️ Some Airport Art Will Be From out of State After All

Austin City Council members approved roughly $15 million in contracts for an airport art initiative last week. Artists from New York, Illinois, and California will be part of the first phase of the project and are required to have 10% of their work come from local artists. Don’t worry, local and state artists are next! [CBS Austin]

🚚 Food Truck Inspections Are Changing

OK, if you can guess where this week’s image was taken, I will give you $1 million*!
