Join us on June 17, 2026, from 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM (CDT) for a Lunch & Learn hosted by Westwood.

This session, “Codes, Counties, and Courts: What Texas Builders Need to Know,” will be presented by Frances Blake of the Texas Association of Builders and will provide a practical look at the evolving regulatory landscape impacting residential development across Texas.

The discussion will cover recent legislative and regulatory changes, including energy codes, permitting requirements, water supply challenges, workforce constraints, and ongoing debates around electrification and natural gas. Attendees will gain a better understanding of how these factors are shaping development at both the state and local levels.

Attendees will gain insight into:
 • Key legislative and regulatory trends affecting Texas builders
 • Local and state permitting frameworks and challenges
 • Water supply and infrastructure considerations
 • Workforce development and labor constraints
 • Strategies for navigating city, county, and agency processes

This session is designed to provide valuable perspective for builders, developers, and land professionals working within Texas’s dynamic regulatory environment.
