2024 Housing Element Annual Progress Report (APR)


Due April 1, 2025

“As shown in Table 1 below, Menlo Park has achieved approximately 35.7% of its total 6th Cycle RHNA. At
the end of 2024, the income category with the highest percentage of units receiving a building permit was
the above moderate level, with approximately 55.9% complete, and the income category with the lowest
percentage of permitted units was the very low income affordability level with approximately 15.9%
complete. The City will continue to focus on Housing Element programs intended to support existing households and
housing units, while also increasing housing production to meet its (total) requirement of 2,946 units, including 1,662 units of affordable housing across different income categories, through 2031.” (Source: Community Development Report, Agenda Item D-3, March 5, 2025)

Important Note

All units in a development with a city building permit can be counted towards the Cit’s allocation requirements, i.e., the completion of units by 2023 is NOT required.
