The beauty, peacefulness, and safety of our neighborhoods make Santa Cruz one of the most desirable places to live in the country. Annual Compliance Monitoring (ACM) plays an important role in maintaining the existing diverse housing stock within our community. The ACM helps to ensure that the community has access to affordable housing throughout the City.

The ACM is now digital. Please see the below property types and timelines for annual monitoring. If you prefer to receive paper monitoring please email acmonitoring@santacruzca.gov
