Staff says housing element amendments near completion after state feedback is awaited
Summary
City staff reported a recent joint meeting of the City Council and Planning Commission to review the housing element and said they expect state feedback before repackaging the amendment for formal submission.
Staff member 2 summarized recent work on the city’s housing element amendment and briefed the group on next steps following a joint meeting of the City Council and the Planning Commission.
"We went to the annual public works barbecue... I just wanna thank everybody, you know, the resident group, city staff, the boards and commissions," Staff member 2 said, then added, "We're going to get some feedback from the state now and then repackage it for the formal amendment. But I think based on the feedback from the planning commission and the city council, we're in really good shape."
Why this matters: housing element amendments affect the city’s land-use planning and compliance with state housing law. In the remarks, staff characterized the proposal as near completion pending state review; the transcript does not include the amendment’s text, specific state comments, or any formal council vote approving submission.
Details and limitations: Staff member 2 noted the joint meeting occurred and that additional work remains before the formal amendment is filed. No timetable for state response or later council action was provided.
Next steps: Staff said they expect to receive state feedback and then repackage the amendment for formal submittal to the council and relevant state agencies. No formal motion or vote on the amendment was recorded during this session.
