Housing for All Framework and Innovative Housing Trust Fund
The county adopted a new inclusionary housing ordinance requiring market-rate housing developers to include affordable units or pay in-lieu fees. The policy aims to address severe shortfalls in housing for very low-income families across unincorporated areas.
San Pasquale Academy Future and Foster Youth Services
The county considered closing the historic San Pasquale Academy residential foster campus due to declining enrollment and state policy shifts toward family-based care.
