Enforcing Housing Element Policies

Summary

Presented by HLC’s own Jeremy Levine, our final event of the month, “Enforcing Housing Element Policies,” on May 31 covered strategies for ensuring cities across the Bay Area uphold their housing element commitments. These commitments include promoting affordable homes and tenant protections over the next seven years. To assist in enforcing these policies, the Housing Leadership Council created a crowd-sourced policy tracker listing every major policy in San Mateo County’s housing elements.

During the session, attendees learned from Jeremy Levine how advocates, planning staff, developers, and others can effectively use this tracking tool to hold cities accountable and support the implementation of housing policies.
