What is a Housing Element?

A Housing Element is part of a General Plan adopted by a city, town or county that includes the goals, policies and programs that direct decision-making around housing.

The Housing Element is — at its core — an opportunity to have a community conversation about how to address local housing challenges and find solutions.
