The Town’s revised 2023-2031 Housing Element is available for public review. The public review period ends on November 30, 2023
In accordance with state law enacted in 1969, the Town of Danville, along with all California cities and counties, must update its Housing Element every eight years. As a policy document, the Housing Element identifies where and how Danville will accommodate the housing needs for people of all income groups. For the upcoming 2023-2031 planning period, the Town is expected to accommodate a minimum of 2,241 new homes.
On January 31, 2023, the Town sent the first draft of the Housing Element to the State Department of Housing and Development (HCD) for review and certification. On April 25, 2023, the Town received a letter from HCD stating that the draft Housing Element meets many State requirements but needs several revisions to fully comply with State law.
On October 6, 2023, the Town revised the technical content of the adopted 2023-2031 Housing Element and resubmitted for a second round of review. HCD provided feedback that additional revisions would be needed.
The Town has worked to address all of HCD’s comments and intends to re-submit the document to HCD after the close of this public review period.
Comments may be sent to David Crompton, Chief of Planning, at dcrompton@danville.ca.gov.
