Box 520 Pleasanton, CA 94566-0802 Dear Mr. Fialho: RE: Review of the City of Pleasanton's Adopted Housing Element Thank you for submitting Pleasanton's housing element adopted on February 13, 2012 and received on February 17, 2012. The Department is required to review adopted housing elements and report the findings to the locality pursuant to Government Code Section 65585(h). Communications with Ms. Janice Stern, Planning Manager, • facilitated the review. The adopted housing element addresses most of the statutory requirements described in the Department's October 14, 2011 review (see link below). For example, the element now identifies sufficient sites with appropriate densities (Table III-2) to accommodate the regional housing need. However, in some cases, changes were not made to the housing element to address the Department's October 2011 findings and the following revisions are still necessary to comply with State housing element law (Article 10.6 of the Government Code): 1. Analyze potential and actual governmental constraints upon the maintenance, improvement, or development of housing for all income levels, including the types of housing identified in paragraph (1) of subdivision (c), and for persons with disabilities as identified in the analysis pursuant to paragraph (7), including land use controls, building codes and their enforcement, site improvements, fees and other exactions required of developers, and local processing and permit procedures (Section 65583(a)(5)). Land-Use Controls: The element was not revised to address this Finding. For more information, see prior review and the Building Blocks'at http://www.hcd.ca.gov/hpd/housing element2/CON landuse.php.
