Housing Element Annual Progress Report
January 1 — December 31
2013
California Government Code Section 65400 requires the City to prepare an annual
progress report on the implementation of the General Plan Housing Element by
April 1 for the previous calendar year. The report is submitted to the Governor's
Office of Planning and Research (OPR) and the Department of Housing and
Community Development (HCD).
Providing the report to HCD fulfills Housing Law requirements to report certain
information, including the progress in meeting the City's share of the regional
housing needs. Furthermore, submitting the report to the state ensures that the
City remains eligible for grants and other funding sources that are tied to the filing
of the report. The report is also submitted to SANDAG to qualify for certain
discretionary funds administered by that agency.
The last comprehensive update of the General Plan was adopted on June 7, 2011,
and was readopted on January 24, 2012. The General Plan update did not include
the Housing Element due to the timing of the preparation of the Regional Housing
Needs Assessment. The Housing Element update was adopted on April 16, 2013.
With these updates, the General Plan complies with the OPR guidelines developed
and adopted pursuant to Government Code Section 65040.2
