Pleasanton officials have launched an online survey to gather community input as part of the process to draft the city’s upcoming Housing Element update.
“The feedback provided in the survey will help inform and plan for the future of housing in Pleasanton by identifying trends on housing preferences, needs, and housing opportunities in the city. This survey is part of the first steps in the ongoing community engagement process associated with updating Pleasanton’s Housing Element,” officials said.
Open until July 30, the survey can be accessed via pleasantonhousingelement.com.
I encourage everyone to take the Housing Survey. It doesn’t take long, but it does take some thought. If we don’t participate in this process, the State will force Pleasanton to entirely change our housing to accomodate their vision. We will have high rise apartments lining every major street, including downtown. Developers will buy up existing homes and build 4 homes on a lot that held one home. We will lose our small town character and home values will plummet. Pleasanton is an expensive place to live. We all pay higher taxes to live here. We need to work as a community to have a voice in the way we want to see affordable housing built in Pleasanton.
