PUBLIC NOTICE AND PUBLIC COMMENTS Notification of this item has been published in The Valley Times as an upcoming agenda item for the September, 8, 2021, Planning Commission meeting. Postcard notifications and letters have been sent to property owners of undeveloped sites that the 2012 Housing DG apply. Staff has contacted representatives from Hacienda and Simon Properties informing them of this effort, inviting review and feedback. At the time this report was prepared, staff has not received specific comments regarding this effort, although representatives from Hacienda and Simon Properties acknowledged and appreciated the communication. CONCLUSION The proposed changes to the 2012 Housing DG seek to modify existing subjective standards and guidelines into objective standards, as is required by state law. The changes to the 2012 Housing DG are intended to apply to the sites identified in the document, although a future draft could include additional sites, as deemed appropriate by the current (6th Cycle) Housing Element update process.
