Alameda County’s Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice

Jurisdictions which are eligible to receive federal funding from housing and community development programs administered by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) are required to prepare a Consolidated Plan and Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing which outlines demographics, jurisdictional analysis of impediments, conclusions and recommendations for fair housing activities. The Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing is a planning document built on public participation and intergovernmental consultation.

The County of Alameda and the cities of Alameda, Albany, Berkeley, Dublin, Emeryville, Fremont, Hayward, Livermore, Newark, Oakland, Piedmont, Pleasanton, San Leandro, and Union City along with the Housing Authorities for the Cities of Alameda, Berkeley, Livermore, Oakland and Alameda County have formed a working group to develop a regional Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing.

The purpose of the Regional AI is to gather data and community feedback, identify specific impediments or barriers to fair housing within Alameda County, and then to come up with viable solutions, or actions to take against identified impediments.

In May 2025, these jurisdictions and Housing Authorities will adopt a Five-Year Consolidated Plan. As part of the Consolidated Plan an Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing (AI) must be updated every five years. The last AI was updated in January 2020.

The Draft Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing is available for public review The public review period will end on February 17, 2025. A public hearing will be held to receive comments on the draft Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing. The Hearing will be held on:
