Also, the presentation included the City's project contact information and was posted on the Housing Element Update website prior to the meeting to facilitate additional comments or questions. The meeting was opened by the Ellen Clark, Community Development Director, who welcomed attendees and introduced the City's team, including Jennifer Hagen, Housing Element Update Project Manager and Lisa Wise Consulting, Inc. (LWC) staff. The team presented on the following topics (attached as Exhibit A): • Housing Element Basics • Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) • Housing Element Update Process • Housing in Pleasanton During the presentation, attendees were encouraged to participate in live polling and ask questions and provide comments through the Zoom chat function. After closing the presentation, no questions were submitted, and the attendees were assigned to one of three virtual breakout rooms for a facilitated discussion (see Breakout Rooms below).
