GOVERNMENT COMMITTEE
SUBJECT: SET GENERAL PLAN HEARING DATE: May 17, 2023
SECOND CYCLE FOR JUNE 2023
Approved Date
5-17-23
RECOMMENDATION
Set the General Plan Second Review Cycle of 2023 for City Council hearing beginning on the afternoon of June 20, 2023, to consider City-initiated General Plan amendments associated with the adoption of the 2023-2031 Housing Element and several other City-initiated minor amendments.
BACKGROUND
Consistent with State law, the City Council may consider General Plan amendments up to four times per year. Policy IP-3.1 of the Envision San José 2040 General Plan allows staff to hold City-initiated General Plan Amendments up to four times a year and limits City Council consideration of privately-initiated General Plan amendment applications to one of those cycles.
The proposed June 20, 2023, hearing would include the General Plan hearing on that month's afternoon Council agenda. This General Plan hearing is to allow the adoption of the 2023-2031 Housing Element and several other City-initiated General Plan amendments. This hearing will constitute the second General Plan hearing cycle of the calendar year 2023.
