Housing Elements & Allocations

UPDATES AND APPEALS

In late September and Early October, the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) heard appeals from ten Marin jurisdictions disputing their Regional Housing Needs Allocations numbers. None of these appeals were granted.

Now that the appeals hearings have concluded, Marin towns and cities are conducting public engagement workshops for their 2023-2031 Housing Element updates. Please get engaged with this process in your jurisdiction. Find out about your jurisdiction’s Housing Element Process here>>

THERE ARE MANY WAYS TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE

How about writing a letter to the editor about a housing issue, maybe one of the above? See the link below for word count and ways of submitting your letter. It is best to choose a topic that is current, perhaps a response to an IJ article or editorial, and get your letter into the queue soon after. Your letters make a difference to changing the narrative about affordable housing in Marin.
