—Compliance means securing two subjects within the categories of production, preservation, and protection of housing units.

—When it comes to production, Alameda County has secured none of seven prescribed items. For preservation, the county has notched one of seven.

—Among 10 subjects for preservation o f existing housing units, Alameda County has fulfilled none.

—A presentation before the Board of Supervisors Transportation and Planning Committee suggests approval of a Just Cause ordinance for the unincorporated areas and rent stabilization would fulfill the preservation requirement.
