Workshop Meeting

May 13, 2021 at 5 p.m. 

 

The City is in the process of preparing the Housing Element of the General Plan for the 2021-2029 period as required by State law. The Housing Element establishes policies and programs to address Huntington Park’s existing and projected housing needs, including the City’s share of the regional housing need allocation (or “RHNA”).

Since 1969, Housing Elements have been mandatory portions of local general plans in California. Providing housing for all Californians is considered by the state legislature to be of vital statewide importance. A Housing Element provides an analysis of a community’s housing needs for all income levels and strategies to respond to those housing needs. It is a key part of the City’s overall General Plan. State Law establishes that each city accommodates its fair share of affordable housing to distribute housing needs throughout the state.
