The Fresno County Multi-Jurisdictional Housing Element update effort includes the cities of Fresno, Coalinga, Firebaugh, Fowler, Huron, Kerman, Kingsburg, Mendota, Orange Cove, Parlier, Reedley, San Joaquin, Sanger, Selma, and the County of Fresno for the sixth round of Housing Element updates.

The Multi-Jurisdictional Housing Element will provide an opportunity for countywide housing issues and needs to be more effectively addressed at the regional level rather than only at the local level. 

The primary objective of the project will be to prepare several regional pieces of the Housing Element  that summarize housing needs and fair housing issues. The Multi-Jurisdictional Housing Element represents an innovative approach to meeting State Housing Element law and coordinating resources to address the region’s housing needs.
