Help Hayward become designated a Pro-Housing community
The City of Hayward invites community members and organizations to review and comment on an application being prepared to have Hayward designated a Pro-Housing community by the State of California.
The Pro-Housing Designation Program to which the City is applying is managed by the California Department of Housing and Community Development and is intended to incentivize the creation of more housing affordable and accessible to Californians of all income levels.
Cities designated as Pro-Housing can qualify for certain State funding grants to support housing development and alleviate homelessness and have applications for funding prioritized by the Department of Housing and Community Development.
To learn more about the City’s application for Pro-Housing designation—including a downloadable copy of the application and ways to provide comment—go online here to the Pro-housing Designation Project page on the City of Hayward website.
