Planning director previews May housing‑element study session and upcoming RFP for resource management update

Mendocino County Planning Commission · April 16, 2026

Summary

Planning Director Julia Crog told the commission the housing-element consultant will present at the May 7 study session for the 2027–2035 housing element and that an RFP to update the resource management element (to reflect recent state bills on open space and circulation) closes April 23.

Julia Crog, Mendocino County Planning and Building Services director, briefed the commission on two long‑range planning items.

Crog said the consultant preparing the 2027–2035 housing element will present to the commission in a May 7 study session; the presentation will be an early review during the project's kickoff phase. She also reported an RFP to update the county's resource management element — work required to conform to recently passed state legislation on open space and circulation — closes on Thursday, April 23.

Crog said staff are early in the process and that more detailed public engagement and subsequent presentations will follow as the consultant's work advances. Commissioners offered no questions beyond noting the upcoming schedule.

Next steps: consultant presentation at the May 7 study session and evaluation of RFP responses after the April 23 closing date.
