Council approves consent agenda including 2025 housing-element annual progress report
Summary
The Ross Town Council approved the consent agenda on March 12, including the 2025 annual progress report for the 6th-cycle housing element; staff reported seven building permits issued in 2025 (all ADUs) and that the APR is due to the state HCD on April 1.
The Ross Town Council approved the consent agenda at its March 12 meeting, which included acceptance of the 2025 annual progress report (APR) for the town's sixth-cycle housing element.
Planning staff member Roberta summarized the APR and said, "In 2025, the town issued building permits for 7 housing units. They are all ADUs," and noted the APR will be submitted to the state HCD on April 1. Council and staff discussed how the town tracks affordability for ADUs, with staff explaining that some ADUs are deed-restricted and that the state uses an affordability calculator based on square footage to determine whether an ADU may be counted as affordable.
Council member Salter moved to approve the consent agenda item 11c and the motion passed on a roll-call vote with all present council members voting yes.
No public commenters were recorded on the consent item. Staff said the APR will include information on affordability thresholds and which ADUs fall under those categories for the state reporting requirement.
