Background Information:
The proposed General Plan Amendment #24-01 is an update to Tehama County’s Housing Element, which focuses on policies and programs that are designed to address the County’s share of the regional housing needs allocation. The Housing Element has been prepared to meet the requirements of the state law (Section 65580-655889.8 of the California Government Code) and to meet the community objectives as stated in the General Plan. This Housing Element is for the planning period from 2024 to 2029 and complies with the state-mandated five-year cycle.
On December 4, 2025, following the public hearing discussion, the Planning Commission voted to recommend that the Board of Supervisors adopt the CEQA exemption, and voted to recommend that the Board of Supervisors approve the GPA #24-01 Resolution with the findings incorporated therein.
