Dear Valued Community Members,

You may recall from our last newsletter that every California city is currently undertaking an update to their respective Housing Element, the section of cities' general plans that addresses where and how much housing to build. We have been engaging the community on this important update.

For the first time, the state is requiring that the Housing Element update also address fair housing. At our next Housing Element Update meeting on December 13, we will be discussing fair housing.

Fair housing refers to policies and actions that prevent discrimination, expand choices, and address racial and economic disparities in housing. It involves increasing investment in underserved communities and fostering inclusive neighborhoods. Come learn about this important topic!

There will be a presentation and breakout sessions to talk with City staff and each other. Your experiences with fair housing issues can help shape the City's Assessment of Fair Housing and the Housing Element Update.

Spanish and Vietnamese language interpretation will be available.  
Habrá interpretación disponible en español y vietnamita. 
Sẽ có thông dịch Tiếng Tây Ban Nha và Tiếng Việt. 

Please also take a short survey on what matters most about housing to you!
