General Plan UpdatesGeneral Plan UpdatesThe Planning Division is responsible for periodically updating the County General Plan to maintain consistency with State law and carry out the directives of the Board of Supervisors. Pending General Plan Amendment programs currently being processed or recently completed by the Planning Division are listed on this page. |
Housing Element UpdateThe Housing Element is one of seven State-mandated “elements” of the General Plan and contains goals, policies, and programs that respond to local existing and future housing conditions and needs. The California Government Code mandates that each jurisdiction update their Housing Element on a five year cycle (unless modified by the State legislature) and receive certification from the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) to ensure compliance with State law. The County of Ventura is in the process of updating its Housing Element. See the link for a schedule of public hearings. |
