The City of Dublin is currently working on our Housing Element Update, where we have held two public meetings to date. The next public meeting will tentatively be held on May 18th. We anticipate adoption of our Housing Element in Summer 2022. In addition to the Housing Element, the City plans to update our Land Use Element for consistency with the Housing Element. The City also anticipates updating our Safety Element and adding environmental justice policies. For additional information, please visit:

We received a LEAP grant from the State to update our Housing Element and we are currently drafting the RFP for consultant support on the project. We plan to send the RFP out in the next month and to kick off the project this summer. The full scope of work for the project is unknown at this time because we will work with a consultant to develop a scope, but we do anticipate that our RFP will identify the following General Plan Updates, in addition to the Housing Element Update:
Updating all programs and policies related to the Climate Action Plan which will require update of multiple Elements.
Either adding a Environmental Justice Element and/or updating multiple Elements to include EJ policies and programs.
Updating the Safety Element in accordance with State Law

Entered into a contract with a consultant to prepare the new Housing Element. They expect to concurrently update the Safety Element and draft a new Environmental Justice Element. This additional effort will be going to the City Council for approval on July 27. They have not developed a public schedule just yet, but we hope to have all efforts completed well ahead of the 2023 deadline. There will be ample opportunities for public participation as we move further into the process.
