Document Description
The City of Menifee (City) is currently working on the 6th Cycle Housing Element Update to cover the planning period from 2021 to 2029. To comply with State law, the City’s Housing Element must be updated to ensure the City’s policies and programs can accommodate estimated housing growth need identified in the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) allocation for the 2021-2029 planning period. To meet its RHNA allocation, the City will need to expand its housing availability to allow for an additional 6,594 units at various household income levels. As required by state law, the Housing Element must identify the City’s ability to accommodate this estimated growth through available sites and appropriate zoning. The City will seek a General Plan Amendment and Change of Zone in order to fully accommodate the estimated growth. The City also intends to update the Safety and Land Use Elements of their General Plan as well as develop new environmental justice policies that benefit disadvantaged communities. Any future changes to Housing Element policy will require environmental review pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
