Draft Housing Element Comes to City Planning Commission Study Session
The City's Planning Commission will hear a presentation from City planners and the project consultant regarding the draft Housing Element of the new General Plan on Tuesday, November 18, 2008 at 5 p.m. in City's Century room located on the first floor of City Hall at 23920 Valencia Boulevard.
The draft Housing Element is one of seven elements of the joint City/County General Plan, One Valley One Vision. As a required element of the General Plan, the Housing Element is part of the comprehensive planning document that provides a framework to guide new development in the City. The Housing Element contains information about the number and type of homes that must be built in order to ensure that all residents in the City will have a safe and healthy home in the future. The Element is being prepared to help Santa Clarita meet local and regional housing goals and to comply with State General Plan requirements.
The public is invited to attend the study session which will be held before the Planning Commission meeting on November 18 which will include an hour long presentation from City staff, followed by comments from the Planning Commission and the public.
"It is important to remember that the plan is still be drafted and that public participation is vital to the success of this broad planning document," explained Paul Brotzman, Director of Community Development for the City.
The One Valley One Vision joint general plan has been in the works for several years, with nearly 100 public participation meetings and workshops already held.
