6TH CYCLE HOUSING ELEMENT UPDATE
All jurisdictions in the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) region are required
to update their General Plan Housing Element for the 2021-2029 planning period (the 6th cycle) by
October 2021, albeit with a 120-day grace period. The Housing Element is one of the State-mandated
Elements of a General Plan, and it is required to be updated every eight years and certified by the
State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). The Housing Element describes the
City’s needs, goals, policies, objectives, and programs regarding the preservation, improvement, and
development of housing within the City. The Element analyzes community housing needs in terms of
affordability, availability, adequacy, and accessibility and describes the City's strategy and programs to
address those needs.
On October 15, 2021, following a series of public meetings, planning staff submitted the Draft 6th
Cycle Housing Element to HCD for review and certification. Subsequently, on October 20, 2021, the
document was released on the City’s website for public review. Public comments on the draft document
may be submitted to heupdate2021@manhattanbeach.gov through November 30, 2021. The final
document, along with the associated environmental documentation, will be considered by the Planning
Commission and City Council at public hearings scheduled for January and February 2022.

PLAYGROUND
Two very large Capital Improvement Projects (CIP)
are projected to be completed in Spring 2022: Peck
Reservoir and the lower playground in Polliwog Park.
Located at 1800 North Peck Avenue, the Peck Reservoir
sits on 2.7-acres adjacent to a residential neighborhood,
Begg Sports Field and the north boundaries of the
Manhattan Beach Unified School District property and
Polliwog Park. Did you know the Peck Reservoir holds
eight million gallons of water and is the City's second
largest capital improvement project in recent history?
The project improves reliability and water quality for
the residents of Manhattan Beach, while increasing
water capacity by 500,000 gallons, which will be used
to store water supplies and serve the City in firefighting
and emergencies. Additional elements include the
pump station control and operations control buildings,
groundwater treatment facility, and new landscaping
