Measure JJ Election Results
Results from the November 5, 2024 General Election indicate that over 90% of voters approved Measure JJ, the Yorba Linda Local Control, Residential Neighborhood, Open Space Protection Measure. The Orange County Registrar of Voters certified the final election results on December 3, 2024, affirming the approval of Measure JJ.
The City’s 2021-2029 Housing Element will now achieve full certification from the State. The Housing Element is a state-mandated policy that identifies the City’s existing and future housing development opportunities to meet requirements determined by the State.
This milestone allows the City to meet its housing obligations while safeguarding local control over land use decisions. The City will maintain its ability to:
- Protect open space;
- Preserve the character of residential neighborhoods;
- Retain local control over land use decisions and housing projects (including design and zoning) in Yorba Linda;
- Mitigate traffic concerns; and
- Create opportunities for small businesses in a new downtown experience at Savi Ranch.
