Housing Action Plan

The Housing Action Plan (HAP) will be a process and resource-oriented document to increase housing production by serving as a toolkit for residents, housing developers, and nonprofits interested in establishing all housing types in the City of Stockton. The HAP will not create new housing policy or zoning standards but outline the housing development process and make recommendations on how it can be improved, or additional housing resources can be attained. The HAP is not regulated by the State and is intended to be used as a tool in creating more housing.
