City of Pacific Grove
Pacific Grove, CA
The City of Pacific Grove invites your firm to submit a proposal for the preparation and filing of documents necessary to meet the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) for the City's 6th Cycle Housing Element Update and any resulting zoning and General Plan Element updates and modifications to accommodate the City's anticipated Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA).
As is consistent with CEQA, the environmental review will generally analyze the broad environmental effects of implementing the components in the Housing Element Update, related amendments to other General Plan elements, and updates to implementing tools such as the Zoning Ordinance and Subdivision Ordinance. The environmental review shall consider the maximum build-out allowed by the 6th Cycle Housing Element, related General Plan amendments, and related City Code amendments over the course of the 2023-2031 term.
The environmental review is to be completed by August 2023 in accordance with the proposed Scope of Services and the sample Consultant Services Agreement (Attached). Also included is an update to the General Plan Elements identified through this process.
