Proposal • City of Pleasanton Housing Element Update <br /> Part 2 <br /> Work Tasks <br /> Project Goals and Approach <br /> Housing Element content is prescribed in detail in State Housing Element <br /> law (Govt. Code Sec. 65580 et. seq.). Within this overall framework, the <br /> following are more specific objectives identified for creating a model Housing <br /> Element for the City of Pleasanton: <br /> !1 Establish an effective process for involving the Pleasanton community in <br /> the preparation of the Housing Element. <br /> Build a trusting working relationship with HCD. <br /> a Make the Housing Element meaningful and assure the long -term <br /> usability of the Housing Element by identifying "best practices," <br /> being able to respond to changing conditions, and considering creative <br /> regulatory approaches. <br /> a Build from the successes of the current Housing Element by identifying <br /> current successful practices as a starting point for the Housing Element, <br /> conducting an assessment / review of the current Housing Element, <br /> identifying current housing conditions and needs, and confirming with <br /> the community what has worked well. <br /> ■ Enable a simple, yet effective, annual review of the Housing Element, as <br /> required by State law, once the Updated Housing Element is adopted. <br /> Working With City Staff <br /> Coordination with staff will be a critical component of the work effort. This <br /> will include participating in staff meetings, being available at short notice <br /> to respond to pressing needs, maintaining flexibility in work assignments <br /> and responsibilities, working closely with staff in development and review of <br /> interim and final products, and by assuring that products respond directly to <br /> community needs. Efficiencies of time and products will occur the closer City <br /> staff and the consultant can coordinate work. <br /> A schedule of meetings would be identified to coordinate with City staff <br /> throughout the process. These could include regular strategy meetings to <br /> refine the approach for work tasks and the community involvement process, or <br /> more specific meetings focused on particular items or outreach. <br /> Part 2 — Work Tasks 4 <br />
