Join the Empowerment Congress Committee on Homelessness and the Empowerment Congress Equitable Economic, Environmental & Community Development Committee for a special meeting on the LA City Housing Element, which will include an update from a representative from the LA City Planning Department.
The Housing Element of the General Plan, also called “the Plan to House LA,” identifies Los Angeles housing needs and opportunities and establishes clear goals and objectives to inform future housing decisions. When the ongoing update to the Housing Element is completed, it will guide the creation and implementation of the City’s housing policy from 2021 to 2029. The City is obligated to create a plan that will accommodate the production of nearly 500,000 housing units, with more than 200,000 units reserved for lower-income residents.
