Certified
Housing Element Status

To meet state-mandated housing targets set through the Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA), every city and county must adopt a Housing Element—a comprehensive plan that outlines how the jurisdiction will meet housing demands across all income levels. This plan includes strategies for zoning, land availability, tenant protections, and facilitating housing development and preservation. The Housing Element must be certified by the California Department of Housing and Community Development to ensure it complies with state law.
