WORKSHOP #1: Introduction to the Housing Element Update

Where should new housing go? How can we make sure it fits in? And how can the Town’s housing policies support broader goals for a thriving economy and a more equitable and resilient community?

Every eight years, the Town of Corte Madera is required to update its housing policies and plans to accommodate housing needs and address barriers to housing production. The Town is not required to build housing, but must ensure that its regulations enable development of housing affordable to all economic segments of the community. As part of the current update to our housing plan (also known as the Housing Element), the Town needs to plan for the construction of more than 700 new homes over the next decade.
 
The Town will be holding a series of six virtual community workshops from October 2021 to March 2022 intended to provide opportunities to learn about existing housing policies/conditions and State housing laws affecting the Town. Additionally, the workshops will allow participants to help determine the best sites for new housing and the relative size of new buildings at those locations. The community’s input is critical to the success of the Housing Element and we urge you to get involved. Please visit www.cortemaderahousing.org for more information.

The community’s input is critical to the success of this project. Please participate in the virtual community workshop series to learn about existing housing polices/conditions and State housing laws affecting the Town.
