REQUESTED ACTION
This is a City-initiated request to have the Planning Commission conduct a public hearing and provide comment on a First Draft Housing Element Update for the City of San Pablo, pursuant to the Government Code Sections 65350-65362 and the procedures of the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). A public hearing and opportunity to provide comment will also be conducted by the San Pablo City Council at its regular meeting on September 19, 2022. HCD requires that a First Draft Housing Element be available for 30 days of public review, followed by a 10-day period in which to incorporate public comments, prior to the First Draft being submitted to HCD for a 90-day review period. Once HCD has completed its review, the Housing Element will be brought back to the Planning Commission and City Council for further review and adoption in early 2023.
The First Draft Housing Element was made available on the City's website on August 19, 2022 at https://www.sanpabloca.gov/2...
