General Plan/Housing Element
(3)The provision of housing affordable to low and moderate income households requires the
cooperation of all levels of government.
(4)Local and state governments have a responsibility to use the powers vested in them to facilitate
the improvement and development of housing to make adequate provision for the housing
needs of all economic segments of the community.
(5)The legislature recognizes that in carrying out this responsibility, each local government also
has the responsibility to consider economic, environmental, and fiscal factors and community
goals set forth in the General Plan and to cooperate with other local governments, and the state,
in addressing regional housing needs.
Section 65581 of the Government Code states that the intent of the Legislature in enacting these
requirements is:
(1)To assure that local governments recognize their responsibilities in contributing to the
attainment of the State housing goal.
(2)To assure that cities and counties prepare and implement housing elements which, along with
federal and State programs, will move toward attainment of the State housing goal.
(3)To recognize that each locality is best capable of detennining what efforts arc required by it to
contribute to the attainment of the State housing goal as well as regional housing needs.
(4)To ensure that each local government cooperates with other local governments to address
regional housing needs.
The basic components of a Housing Element were established in Section 65583, and required that
each Element include:
•An assessment of housing needs and an inventory of resources and constraints relevant to the
meeting of local needs.
•A statement of the eonmrnnity' s goals, quantified objectives, and policies relative to the
maintenance, improvement, and development of housing.
•A program that sets forth a schedule of actions to implement the policies and achieve the goals
and objectives of the Housing Element to provide housing for all economic segments of the
community guided by the following state housing objectives.
•Provision of decent housing for all persons regardless of age, race, sex, marital status, source
of income, or other factors.
•Provision of adequate housing by location, type, price and tenure.
•Development of a balanced residential environment including access to jobs, community
facilities, and services.
Since that time, Housing Element law has been regularly updated, expanded and modified. The
most recent update to Housing Element law occurred in 2017, when a series of bills were passed
into law to address the State's dctcnnination that California was experiencing a State-wide housing
crisis. The laws passed in 20 l 7 addressed a wide range of housing-related issues, including
Housing Elements, which are summarized below.
•SB 2 established a rccordation fee for real estate documentation which would fond planning
grants for affordable housing and affordable housing projects.
