2022 State of the Valley

By Brittney Sherman

Since 1995, Joint Venture Silicon Valley has published the Silicon Valley Index, a nationally recognized publication that tells the story of Silicon Valley. The Index indicators measure the strength of our economy and the health of our community, highlighting challenges and providing a data-rich foundation for decision making.

The State of the Valley is an old-fashioned “town hall” meeting. This year’s State of the Valley was held at Stanford University and included a briefing of the Index by Russell Hancock, a panel discussion with Michele Lew from The Health Trust and Jim Wunderman from Bay Area Council, and a keynote presentation from the Washington Post’s Eugene Robinson. Performances by the Stanford Taiko, Stanford Talisman and a poetry reading by Santa Clara County Poet Laureate Tshaka Campbell, highlighted the spirit of togetherness.

The City of Morgan Hill was honored to attend and be a part of the 2022 State of the Valley. Get your copy of the 2022 Silicon Valley Index (jointventure.org) HERE

What is the Housing Element?

By Brittney Sherman

Join us in shaping the future of housing in Morgan Hill!

The City is in the process of updating the Housing Element of the General Plan for the 2023-2031 period as required by State law. The Housing Element establishes policies and programs to address Morgan Hill’s existing and projected housing needs for all economic segments of the community. The first step in this process is to ask community members what they see as Morgan Hill’s most important housing needs. Please complete this 10 question survey HERE to provide us with your input. All responses are confidential.

We encourage you to be a part of the housing conversation by attending the Housing Element Plan Virtual Townhall Meeting on Thursday February 10th @ 530PM. The meeting will include discussions on the existing and upcoming Housing Element, housing needs of the city, the cities Sites Inventory, housing policies, and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) requirements. Review all 2021 Housing Conversation Workshops HERE.
