Housing element progress and state mandates
Summary
The Council accepted its annual housing progress report: 28 units entitled in 2025, 31 certificates of occupancy, and work underway on objective design standards and public sites planning. Council members discussed using the Sharp Park Specific Plan standards as a model to keep new development in character with Pacifica, and the planning department admitted it is overwhelmed by state mandates.
