NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the City Council of the City of Gilroy, on Monday, May 1, 2023,
will hold a public hearing commencing at Gilroy City Council Chambers, 7351 Rosanna Street,
Gilroy, CA, at 6:00 PM, or as soon thereafter as possible, to consider the following item:
Project Number: GPA 22-01
Project Title: Gilroy 2023-2031 Housing Element Adoption
Project Description: The City of Gilroy has prepared and intends to adopt an update to
the Housing Element of the General Plan to affirmatively further fair housing and
accommodate the 1,773-unit Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) for the 2023-
2031 Housing Element cycle. Public review and input has been a critical component of
this 6th cycle Housing Element Update. The 2023-2031 Housing Element has been
drafted to be substantially compliant with the requirements set forth in state law. The
2023-2031 Housing Element has also been drafted to obtain certification from the
California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD), in response to
comments on the initial draft submitted to HCD on October 31, 2022.
CEQA Determination: The adoption of the Gilroy 2023-2031 Housing Element is exempt
from review under the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to CEQA
Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) in that it can be seen with certainty that the Gilroy 2023-
2031 Housing Element would not result in a significant environmental effect, and none of
the circumstances set forth in CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 applies.
The draft Gilroy 2023-2031 Housing Element is on file with the Community Development
Department at City Hall. The staff report for the Project may also be viewed on the City
website (www.cityofgilroy.org) by 5:00 p.m. the Friday before the meeting.
Interested parties are encouraged to attend this public hearing as this is the time and
place when comments on the proposals shall be heard and given due consideration.
The meeting will also be broadcast live on the City of Gilroy’s website at
www.cityofgilroy.org. Persons who are unable to attend this public hearing may submit
written comments by email to the project planner noted below, or by delivering them to
the Planning Division at City Hall, 7351 Rosanna St. Gilroy, CA. 95020 prior to, or at the
public hearing to be incorporated into the record. If you challenge the decisions at this
hearing, you may be limited to raising only those issues you or someone else raised at
the hearing, described in this notice, or in written correspondence delivered to the City at
or prior to the meeting.
