After many months of work, the City of Mountain View received state certification of their housing element by the California Department of Housing and Community Development. Greenbelt Alliance worked with the city and advocated alongside local community organizations to ensure that the plan included progressive policy changes to spur new infill housing development. These changes include the elimination of parking minimums for 100% affordable housing projects, streamlining for new housing projects in many locations across the city, and significant density increases, all of which will help create the new homes Mountain View needs for a more sustainable future.
