Fundamental to the Housing Element Update is how the City addresses its assigned fair-share of regional housing needs. This fair-share is determined through a regional housing needs allocation process. HCD, with input from the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG), determines the region’s total housing need for the 2023-2031 period. ABAG then determines the housing allocation for each Bay Area city and county through the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) allocation. The Housing Element Update must identify enough potentially developable land zoned for residential use to accommodate the City’s new RHNA allocation.
Sausalito needs to plan for 724 new homes (draft allocation) in the next 8 years. Sausalito’s Draft RHNA of 724 units is an 816% increase from the 2014-2022 RHNA of 79 units. The 2023-2031 RHNA is broken down by income group as shown in the table below. ABAG is in the process of holding workshops and meetings to discuss the draft allocation and plans to adopt the final allocation in December 2021.
