HUGHSON
The community development director told the Hughson City Council the city's housing element has been submitted to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) and is currently under review, and staff will return with any required changes once HCD provides its findings.
On the general plan update, the director said work is underway and the goal is to complete the update in the spring, with any necessary revisions to come before the planning commission and the council.
Regarding the Parkwood development, the director gave permit counts: "we have about 80-ish permits left to issue" and said roughly 100 of the project's 299 units have filed permits; staff described the project as in its final phase of permit issuance and agreed to provide a build-out projection at the next meeting.
The director also said the final phase of the Measure L resurfacing project will be ready to bring to council in upcoming meetings once the project details are finalized and ready to go out to bid.
Why it matters: the housing elementsubmission starts the state review process that can lead to required edits before final certification; Parkwood permit numbers indicate the development is more than halfway through permit issuance and will affect local housing supply and infrastructure planning.
What happens next: staff will report back with HCD comments when received, bring Measure L resurfacing details to council for bid authorization, and provide an updated Parkwood build-out projection at the next meeting.
