The purpose of Pleasanton's Land Use Element is to provide policies and a land-use map indicating the planned location, amount, and intensity of residential, commercial, and industrial lands, as well as to provide guidance for the use of public and open-space lands. Its policies are meant to be considered together with the General Plan Map, which depicts the plan's policies in graphic form and illustrates the City's desired pattern of land use throughout the Planning Area. Reflecting the City's commitment to sustainability, the element encourages infill development and a city layout that increases walking and bicycling and minimizes vehicle-miles traveled and energy usage, promotes green-building practices for new public, residential, and commercial development, and seeks to support the City's fiscal and economic sustainability.

Pleasanton's 6th cycle Housing Element frames goals as aspirational purpose statements that indicate the City's direction on housing needs, supported by policies, programs that provide actionable steps, and quantified objectives representing measurable outcomes for units to be constructed, preserved, or rehabilitated. It contains institutional changes intended to significantly increase the amount and type of housing for all income levels, with a planning period running from January 31, 2023 to January 31, 2031. In accordance with state law, the City evaluates program progress and effectiveness annually through an Annual Progress Report reviewed by the City Council and submitted to the State Department of Housing and Community Development by April 1 of each year, reflecting the City's commitment to increasing affordable housing and improving existing housing conditions.
