Danville appeals state mandate calling for additional 2,200 homes by 2031

Danville is appealing its latest regional housing needs allocation (RHND) from the Association of Bay Area Governments, saying the 2,241 units it needs to create from 2023 to 2031 should have been calculated on prioritizing housing near job centers, rather than “high resource centers.”

The town said in a news release, “the appeal focuses on the methodology used by (ABAG) to generate that housing number.” It said the town is joining other municipalities in the county to protest the methodology.
