-Protect public spaces and historical assets.
-Support pedestrian-oriented development policies.
-Address safety and public nuisance concerns.
-Encourage mixed-use residential development.
-Organize resident social events.
-Communicate the economic and cultural benefits of a vibrant, densely-populated downtown to elected officials and the community at large.


DANA History

The Downtown Austin Neighborhood Association (DANA) began operating informally with fewer than 10 members in the mid-1990s. Articles of Association were adopted in January 2003. The association received 501(c)(4) tax-exempt status in 2004.

Board & Officers

The DANA Board of Directors is composed of thirteen members.  Board Members are elected to two-year terms. The board members are staggered where roughly 50% of the board positions are up for election each year.

The four executive officers of the Association, the President, Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer as well as committee appointments are elected by the Board of Directors from among themselves at the beginning of each year.

The Board of Directors meets on the first Tuesday of each month to review Association business and discuss issues of importance to the residents of downtown Austin. All DANA members are welcome to attend. For more information, please see the DANA Bylaws
