California requires that all local governments (cities and counties) adequately plan to meet the housing needs of everyone in the community. California’s local governments meet this requirement by adopting housing plans as part of their “general plan”. General plans serve as the local government’s "blueprint" for how the city and/or county will grow and develop and include eight elements: land use, transportation, conservation, noise, open space, safety, environmental justice, and housing. The Housing Element Compliance Report provides current Housing Element Compliance Status. Additional information about Housing Elements can be found on HCD’s website here: https://www.hcd.ca.gov/planning-and-community-development/housing-elements.

The Board of Supervisors passed Ordinance No. 53-15 requiring the San Francisco Planning Department to monitor and report bi-annually on the Housing Balance between new market rate housing and new affordable housing production.

Government Code section 65400 requires that each city, county, or city and county, including charter cities, prepare an annual progress report (APR) on the status of the housing element of its general plan and progress in its implementation. This dataset includes information reported to the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) by local jurisdictions on their APR form. Additional information about annual progress reports (APR), including the form, instructions, and definition can be found on HCD’s website here: https://www.hcd.ca.gov/planning-and-community-development/annual-progress-reports.
