Concord’s Housing Element Update Draft to be Released, Feedback Sought

CONCORD, CA (May 17, 2022) — City staff has scheduled a third round of community meetings to seek input on Concord’s Draft Housing Element, a plan for addressing the City’s housing needs from 2023 through 2031.

They invite community members to attend the townhall-style meetings to learn about the Housing Element Draft.

The meeting will also show how to provide public comment on the proposed plan, and how previous public input has been incorporated into the Draft. Participants will also have the opportunity to engage with the project team.

The City will provide two ways to participate.

Saturday, June 4, 12-2 p.m.: In-person/Outdoors at Todos Santos Plaza. This is a family-friendly, open house format – come by anytime. They will provide coloring activities for children.

Wednesday, June 8, 6-8 p.m., they will hold a virtual meeting via Zoom.

Spanish translation will be provided at both events. Interpretación al español será disponible.

Staff will publish the Draft Housing Element the week of May 23 on the Housing Element website. Information about how and when to provide public comment on the draft will be forthcoming.
