Body

City staff have worked closely with HCD to respond and prepare the proposed Adoption Draft 2023-2031 Housing Element that complies with State Housing Element Law. Two versions of the document are posted for public review until October 30, 2023:

  • Adoption Draft 2023-2031 Housing Element
  • Adoption Draft 2023-2031 Housing Element showing changes from the April 2023 Draft in underline and strike through.

Please visit SantaBarbaraCA.gov/HEU to review these documents online. You can submit comments on the Adoption Draft to HEU@SantaBarbaraCA.gov. Comments can also be submitted directly to HCD: HousingElements@hcd.ca.gov.

The Adoption Draft 2023-2031 Housing Element will be submitted to HCD for review following the end of the public review period.

On November 16, 2023, the Planning Commission will hold a hearing to consider and forward a recommendation to the City Council for adoption of the Housing Element. The adoption hearings at the Planning Commission and City Council will provide further opportunities for public input.
