Senate Bill 9, or the California HOME Act, is a state mandate imposed on local governments to plan for adequate new housing to accommodate population growth every eight years. The state issues a recommendation for how much housing a municipality should aim for, and the municipality can choose how and where to build it.
The deadline for the 2023-2031 housing element was Tuesday night. 69 townships in the Bay Area didn't make it. Some towns tried to self-certify,"which is like making their own driver's license", said Trauss; some didn't submit a draft at all; some started too late and weren't finished, like"turning in an essay with a bunch of blank pages in the middle"; and some already had their drafts rejected, so they elected to take more time to complete the state's edits.
