What is Prohousing Designation?
The City of Montebello is moving forward with an application for a Prohousing Designation from the California Department of Housing and Community Development(Open in new window) (HCD). This designation is awarded to jurisdictions that take meaningful steps to increase housing production, reduce barriers to development, and adopt policies that support the City’s commitment to housing for the community.
Achieving Prohousing status would expand access to additional state funding opportunities and provide the City, along with local developers, a competitive advantage when applying for select housing and infrastructure programs.
