The Housing Element is a mandated element of each county and city general plan and is required under State law to be updated on a statutorily prescribed schedule, generally every five years (Government Code section 65588(a) and (b). On May 9, 206, the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors adopted a revised 2003-2008 Housing Element. On August 2, 2006 the State Department of Housing and Community Development conditionally certified that the Housing Element complies with all requirements of State housing law, The State's certification is conditioned on the implementation of action items discussed in this document. The Housing Element of the County's Comprehensive Plan identifies the amount and condition of existing housing stock; analyzes housing needs; and establishes County goals, objectives, policies, and programs to address the County's housing shortage, including the preservation, improvement and development of housing for all economic segments of the community.
