RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION: (1) Direct Staff to forward the City's Annual Progress Report on the implementation of the Rancho Palos Verdes Housing Element during the 2016 calendar year to the Governor's Office of Planning and Research (OPR) and the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) FISCAL IMPACT: None Amount Budgeted: N/A Additional Appropriation: N/A Account Number(s): N/A ORIGINATED BY: Octavio Silva, Associate Planner 14 - REVIEWED BY: Ara Mihranian, AICP, Director of Community Development,, APPROVED BY: Doug Willmore, City Manager ATTACHED SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS: A. 2016 Annual Report on the implementation of the Rancho Palos Verdes Housing Element (page A-1) BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION: Each City is required to prepare and adopt a General Plan that includes certain mandatory elements, including a Housing Element. The Housing Element includes: (a) an identification and analysis of existing and projected housing needs, including the local government's share of the regional housing needs, (b) an inventory of resources and constraints relevant to meeting those needs; and (c) a program showing a five-year schedule of actions to be taken to implement the Housing Element, including how the local government plans to meet its share of the regional housing needs. In 1995, the State Legislature required HCD to adopt forms and definitions for local governments to use in the preparation of their annual reports on implementation of the Housing Element. The Housing Element Annual Implementation Report (Attachment A) utilizes these forms and covers the 2016 calendar year only. 1 Pursuant to Section 65400 of the State Government Code, Staff has prepared an Annual Report regarding the status of the City's Housing Element. The attached forms describe the progress the City has made in meeting the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA); provide a list of housing units affordable to moderate- or lower- income households for which building permits were issued during the reporting period, and identify the total number of units affordable to above -moderate -income households for which building permits were finalized. Table C of the Annual Report indicates the names of the programs listed in the City's Housing Element, the objective of each program, the deadline for achieving the objective, and the status of each program implemented as of the end of the reporting period. As reflected in the Annual Report, Staff believes that the goals and policies of the City's Housing Element continue to be implemented through actions taken by the City that balance community needs and property rights with the health, safety and welfare of the general public. The Annual Report was scheduled for presentation to the Planning Commission at its March 14, 2017, meeting, which will occur after the completion of this report. Staff will update the City Council regarding any Planning Commission recommendations on the Annual Report as Late Correspondence for the March 21, 2017, City Council meeting. If approved by the City Council, the Annual Report will then be forwarded to OPR and HCD. ALTERNATIVES: In addition to the Staff recommendation, the following alternative action is available for the City Council's consideration: Identify additional information to be included in the Housing Element Annual Report prior to forwarding the report to the required State agencies. 2 Attachment 1 page 1 of 6 ANNUAL ELEMENT PROGRESS REPORT Housing Element Implementation (CCR Title 25 §6202 ) Jurisdiction City of Rancho Palos Verdes Reporting Period 1/1/2016 - 12/31/2016 Table A Annual Building Activity Report Summary - New Construction Very Low-, Low-, and Mixed -Income Multifamily Projects Housing Development Information Housing with Financial Assistance and/or Deed Restrictions Housing without Financial Assistance or Deed Restrictions 1 2 3 4 5 5a 6 7 8 Project Identifier (may be APN No., project name or address) Unit Category Tenure R=Renter O=Owner Affordability by Household Incomes Total Units per Project 1 Est. # Infill Units"' Assistance Programs for Each Development Deed Restricted Units Note below the number of units determined to be affordable without financial or deed restrictions and attach an explanation how the jurisdiction determined the units were affordable.
