Los Angeles City Planning: PLUM Hearing Date, CPC Determination for Targeted Amendments to Housing Element

Dear Stakeholder,

On May 19, the City Planning Commission (CPC) unanimously voted to recommend that the City Council approve the targeted amendments to the 2021-2029 Housing Element. At the CPC public hearing staff gave a presentation highlighting the proposed amendments, after which the public provided comments.

The proposed amendments were prepared in response to a February 22, 2022 letter from the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD), informing the City that additional revisions were needed to the Housing Element's programs to ensure compliance with new Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) requirements in state law. Additional information on the CPC’s action, including further background on the proposed amendments, is detailed in the Letter of Determination below.
