Unincorporated Marin County
The County is in the process of updating the Housing and Safety Elements of the Countywide Plan (the County’s General Plan). The Countywide Plan serves as the guiding vision for the future of unincorporated Marin. These Elements focus on housing needs and conditions, and climate change adaptation measures including wildfire, sea level rise and flooding concerns.
Visit the County's Housing and Safety Elements webpage for more information.

Do you have a suggestion for a potential Housing Element site?
Part of the Housing Element includes identifying potential sites for housing development in the unincorporated county. If you have a housing site suggestion, click on the plus icon to the left and drag a pin on the map. You can also search by address by clicking on the magnifying glass icon to the top-right of the map. To check whether an address is located in the unincorporated county, use our jurisdiction lookup tool.
- Areas in grey on the map indicate incorporated cities and towns
- Areas in purple are candidate Housing Element sites
- Areas in yellow are credit Housing Element sites (meaning there is an active housing application on the site)
In addition to the Balancing Act tool, you may use this map to share comments about any of the candidate housing sites. You can do so by dragging a pin on the site and typing your comment into the textbox.
If you are having difficulty using this tool, you can also share site suggestions with Staff by email at housingelement@marincounty.org or by phone at (415) 473-7309. Please submit any site suggestions by end of day Monday, February 28, 2022.
