Glenn County has a poor economy and very little money
to make housing improvements, develop new housing, or develop the
infrastructure needed for new housing.
Glenn County has a Human Resources Agency
with housing programs that have and will continue to benefit very low- and
low-income housing occupants.
Glenn County will meet its housing needs not by traditional methods that
are common in large urban areas, but by allowing second residential dwelling
units on parcels, mobile homes that are dated 1980 or newer, and that are 700
square feet or larger. The minimum residential construction standards in the
Glenn County Zoning Code (Title 19) are very flexible, fair, and apply
county-wide.
