City policies.
2. State law requires all jurisdictions within the Southern California Association

General Plans for the 6t" planning cycle, which covers the 2021-2029
period.
3. On January 26, 2021 the City Council and Planning Commission conducted
a duly noticed public workshop to review issues to be addressed in the
Housing Element update.
4. On March 23, 2021 the Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed
public meeting to review the draft Housing Element update.
5. On April 6, 2021 the City Council conducted a duly noticed public meeting

6. As required by State law, the Draft 2021-2029 Housing Element was
submitted to the California Department of Housing and Community
Development (HCD) for review on April 8, 2021.
7. On June 3, 2021 HCD issue a letter finding that the draft element addresses
many statutory requirements; however, revisions will be necessary to
comply with State Housing Element Law.
8. On October 13, 2021 the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public
hearing to review the revised draft 2021-2029 Housing Element update
incorporating revisions to address HCD's June 3, 2021 comments as
summarized in the Staff report. At that hearing all interested persons were

Element. At the conclusion of the public hearing the Planning Commission
adopted a resolution recommending City Council adoption of the 2021-2029
Housing Element as revised to address HCD comments.
Resolution No, 2021-51
9. On November 2, 2021 the City Council held a duly noticed public hearing to
review the revised draft 2021-2029 Housing Element update incorporating
revisions to address HCD's June 3, 2021 comments as summarized in the
Staff report. At that hearing all interested persons were provided an
opportunity of offer comments on the revised draft Housing Element.
10. On December.17, 2019 the Diamond Bar City Council certified Final EIR
No. SCH 2O18051066 for the Diamond Bar 2040 General Plan. Pursuant to
CEQA Guidelines Sections 15162, 15164 and 15168 the City has prepared
an Addendum to the General Plan EIR, which demonstrates that the 2021-
2029 Housing Element update would not result in any significant
environmental impacts that were not previously evaluated in the General
Plan EIR; therefore, no subsequent environmental document is required.
The EIR Addendum is attached to the November 2, 2021 Staff Report and
incorporated herein by reference.
11. The 2040 General Plan remains properly integrated and internally
consistent as required by California Government Code Section 65300.5.

three other public places were posted.
