Mission Statement: The Division of Housing Policy Development administers, develops and advocates policies and laws to further housing and community development.
The Division of Housing Policy Development (HPD) accomplishes its mission by identifying California's housing needs and developing policies to meet those needs. HPD administers State housing element law, including the review of local general plan housing elements; prepares numerous state plans and reports and conducts research to facilitate housing development and improvement, and provides a wide range of technical assistance to local governments, public and private housing providers, business and industry groups, housing advocates and interested citizens. In addition, HPD prepares and implements the federal Consolidated Planning and Performance Reporting requirements for HUD, including the Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing, ensuring California's receipt of millions of federal housing and community development dollars.

The Housing Element Update Guidance is intended to assist local governments and stakeholders with streamlined updates and HCD review for fifth cycle housing elements. HCD recognizes all levels of governments and stakeholders are facing resource challenges and this guidance seeks to create efficiencies and clarity for all parties in the housing element update process. While all local governments are still required to complete a housing element update, the Update Guidance is designed to reduce the number and scope of housing element submittals per jurisdiction and to focus resources on providing assistance to jurisdictions to ensure compliance and effectively addressing housing needs.
HOUSING ELEMENTS AND THE REGIONAL HOUSING NEEDS ALLOCATION
Housing element law, enacted in 1969, mandates that local governments adequately plan to meet the existing and project housing needs of all economic segments of the community. All California localities are required by Article 10.6 of the Government Code (section 65580-65590) to adopt housing elements as part of their general plans, and submit draft and adopted elements to the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) for review of compliance with State law.
