AUSTIN, Texas -- Election season's not over for a few local races, including one for Austin City Council.

According to the Travis County Clerk, 17,269 voters cast ballots early in the runoff election, which includes Austin Community College Places 4 and 9, as well as Austin City Council District 10.

District 10 Incumbent Sheri Gallo is in a runoff election against challenger Alison Alter. The District 10 campaign's been defined by a single zoning case: The Grove at Shoal Creek.

Gallo said she supports the agreement the Bull Creek Road Coalition reached with the Grove.

"I think it's important to keep it intact as it is," she said. "I think if we start pulling out pieces or adding pieces to it, we disrupt what I think was a really good faith effort on both sides."

Alter's hesitant to throw her full support behind it, saying the devil's in the details.

"I am very concerned about the process that we are following," Alter said. "There seems to be a rush to move forward to get this done by December 15th because Council is going on recess, rather than getting it right."

City staff posted the full draft ordinance Friday afternoon.

CodeNEXT is expected to dominate much of the 2017 City Council calendar. Austin leaders are rewriting the city's entire land development code to reflect Imagine Austin, the city's comprehensive plan that was adopted in June 2012.

"CodeNEXT will give us the opportunity to figure out how we can protect our single family neighborhoods--but yet we can add residential units--so that we handle our population growth," Gallo said.

Ahead of releasing a draft of the new city code, Austin leaders wrote a series of prescription papers, or reports, focused on specific issues.

"The feedback that I got varied from prescription paper to prescription paper, and I am not sure there was enough detail in there," Alter said. "It really comes down to what are you saying on this particular street at some level for somebody to understand it."
