A. Housing Element 2018 Annual Progress Report 2018 (page A-1)
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
Each City is required to prepare and adopt a General Plan for its jurisdiction with certain
mandatory elements, including a Housing Element. The Housing Element consists of:
(a) an identification and analysis of existing and projected housing needs, includ ing 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.
Pursuant to Government Code Section 65400, a local jurisdiction is required to prepare
and submit an annual progress report on the jurisdiction’s status and progress in
implementing its Housing Element by April 1st of each year. In 1995, the Legislature
required the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) to
adopt forms and definitions for local governments to use for the preparation of their
annual progress reports. The forms and tables were expanded by HCD during this
1
reporting period and updated to incorporate new reporting requirements pursuant to
Assembly Bill 879 (Grayson) and Senate Bill 35 (Wiener) of t he State’s 2017 Housing
Package and which include, but not limited to project streamlining and identification of
sites to accommodate housing shortfalls. This report is based on the updated
requirements.
DISCUSSION
The 2018 Annual Progress Report on the City’s Housing Element provides HCD with
the required information based on the following tables (see attachment):
Table A - Number of submitted housing development applications;
Table A2 - Building permit activity summary;
Table B - Regional housing needs allocation process or permits issued for
affordable units;
Table C - Sites identified or rezoned to accommodate shortfall housing needs;
Table D - Housing Element program implementation status;
Table E - Commercial development bonus;
Table F (optional) - Units rehabilitated, preserved and acquired for alternative
adequate sites for the 2018 calendar year.
The attached Annual Progress Report only includes Tables A through D, as the City has
no reportable information for Tables E and F which focus on the construction of
commercial development and units that were substantially rehabilitated, acquired, or
preserved. Due to the extensive amount of information on the tables and to ensure that
the information being presented remains legible, in addition to the hard copy and a CD,
the Housing Element 2018 Annual Progress Report is available for download by clicking
here. Staff believes that the goals and policies of the City’s Housing Element for this
reporting period continue to be implemented by actions taken by the City while
balancing community needs, property rights, and the health, safety and welfare of the
general public.
Planning Commission
The Annual Progress Report is scheduled to be reviewed by the Planning Commission
at its February 26, 2019, meeting, which will occur after the transmittal of this report.
Staff will update the City Council regarding the Planning Commission’s
recommendations on the Annual Progress Report as Late Correspondence. If approved
by the City Council, the Annual Progress Report will be forwarded to OPR and HCD on
or before the April 1st submittal deadline. The submittal of a timely and up-to-date
Annual Progress Report to the State ensures that the City is in compliance with State
law and continues to provide funding and grant opportunities for the City.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

PLANNING FOR THE UPCOMING 6Th CYCLE REGIONAL HOUSING NEEDS
ASSESSMENT PERIOD (2021-2029)
The Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) is a representation of future housing
needs for all income levels of a jurisdiction and is a requirement of the California State
housing law. As part of the RHNA, every jurisdiction must plan for its RHNA allocation in
the Housing Element of its General Plan. The RHNA quantifies the need for housing
within each jurisdiction in the State during specified planning periods. Information
presented in Table B of the attached 2018 Annual Progress Report provides an update
on the current 5th cycle, which covers the planning period of 2013 to 2021. The
Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) is in the process of developing
the 6th cycle RHNA allocation plan which will cover the planning period of 2021 through
2029. As part of this process, the City is working with SCAG in providing local input to
ensure that the preparation of the RHNA reflects accurate Zoning and General Plan
data of the City. SCAG has created a RHNA subcommittee that is tasked with making
recommendations on RHNA policy and methodology. For more information or to view
upcoming RHNA subcommittee meeting agendas, visit the following link:

NEW AND PROPOSED STATE OF CALIFORNIA HOUSING BILLS
In 2018, then-Governor Brown adopted 16 additional bills to further address the State’s
housing crisis. The table below provides a summary of the new bills’ requirements by
category and impacts to the City.
Summary Description Impacts to the City
AB 2923
(Chiu)
Bay Area
Rapid Transit
District
(BART):
Transit
Oriented
Development
This bill requires the Bay Area Rapid
Transportation (BART) board of Directors to
adopt by ordinance new transit-oriented
development (TOD) zoning standards for each
station that establish minimum local zoning
requirements for height, density, parking, and
floor area ratio only, that apply to an eligible
TOD project, as defined.
No impact- There are no BART
facilities in the City’s jurisdiction.
AB 2753
(Friedman)
State Density
Bonus
Process
This bill seeks to expedite the processing of
density bonus applications pursuant to the State
Density Bonus Law.
This bill will require the City to
expedite the processing of
projects in the City, in which a
density bonus is being requested
as part of the application.
AB 2372
(Gloria)
State Density
Bonus Law
Floor Area
Ratio Bonus
This bill authorizes cities or counties to grant a
developer of an eligible housing development
under the State Density Bonus Law a floor area
ratio bonus in lieu of a bonus on the basis of
dwelling units per acre. The law also prohibits
cities and counties from imposing parking
requirements in excess of specified ratios and
This bill provides additional
density bonus opportunities for
developers in the City with
applicable development projects.
3
Summary Description Impacts to the City
allows an applicant for an eligible development
to calculate impact fees based on square feet
and not per unit.
SB 1227
(Skinner)
Density
Bonus for
Student
Housing
The bill extends the State Density Bonus Law to
apply to student housing, allowing student
housing projects where at least 20% of the units
are affordable for lower income students to
receive a 35% density bonus. The law also
provides that the development must provide
priority to students experiencing homelessness.
The density bonus under the law will be
calculated based on the number of beds instead
of units.
Under this bill, a developer
seeking to construct student
housing (i.e. Marymount
University) may be provided
density bonuses, incentives or
concessions
AB 2797
(Bloom)
Reconciling
the State
Density
Bonus Law
and the
Coastal Act
This bill requires the State Density Bonus Law
to be harmonized with the California Coastal Act
so that both statutes can be given effect within
the coastal zone to increase affordable housing
in the coastal zone while protecting coastal
resources and access.
This bill would impact the City’s
Local Coastal Specific Plan in that
any density bonus, concessions,
incentives, or waivers to which an
applicant is entitled under Density
Bonus Law will be permitted in a
manner that is consistent with the
California Coastal Act of 1976.
AB 3194
(Daly)
Housing
Accountability
Act Amend.
This bill strictly limits local governments'
authority to reject or restrict housing
development projects that comply with
applicable objective general plan, zoning and
subdivision standards. The bill also requires
local agencies to apply zoning standards and
criteria to facilitate and accommodate
development at the density allowed on the site
by the general plan. Lastly, the bill also declared
the legislature’s intent that a "specific, adverse
impact on the public health and safety" – the
only permissible basis on which a local
government can reject or reduce the size of a
project that complies with objective standards—
will "arise infrequently."
No impact to the City, as City Staff
consistently applies Zoning Code
and General Plan provisions for all
housing development projects.
SB 765
(Wiener)
SB 35
Amendments
This bill makes a series of "cleanup" revisions to
SB 35, the major streamlining law enacted in
2017, which requires localities to grant a
streamlined ministerial approval to housing
projects that meet the locality's objective
standards, commit to provide prevailing wage
labor and provide a specified amount of
affordable housing, among other criteria.
See separate heading below for a
detailed discussion about SB35
impacts.
AB 2263
(Friedman)
Parking
Reductions
for Historic
Reuse
Projects
This bill authorizes parking reductions for a
development project in which a designated
historical resource is being converted or
adapted.
No Impact - City has no Historical
Resource or Preservation
Ordinance.
4
Summary Description Impacts to the City
AB 2162
(Chiu and
Daly)
Supportive
Housing Use
“By Right”
This bill requires supportive housing to be
considered a use "by right" in zones where
multifamily and mixed uses are permitted,
including nonresidential zones permitting
multifamily uses, if the proposed housing
development meets specified criteria. The law
prohibits the local government from imposing
any minimum parking requirement for units
occupied by supportive housing residents if the
development is located within a half-mile of a
public transit stop.
Little to no impact as the multi-
family zoning districts in the City
are already developed. Moreover,
Section 17.04.020 allows
supportive and transitional
housing through a Conditional
Use Permit (CUP).
AB 829
(Chiu)
Prohibition on
Local
Government
Requirements
for State
Funding
Assistance
This bill prohibits local governments from
requiring a developer of obtain a letter of
acknowledgment or similar document prior to
applying for state assistance for a housing
development.
This bill would facilitate housing
developments in the City that rely
on state assistance.
SB 828
(Wiener) &
AB 1771
(Bloom)
RHNA
Process
Amendments
These bills make a number of changes to the
Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA)
process to use more data to more accurately
and fairly reflect job growth and housing needs,
with an emphasis on fair housing goals.
The bills would restrict the City’s
ability to request for a reduction in
the City’s upcoming RHNA
allocation.
AB 686
(Santiago)
Affirmatively
Further Fair
Housing
This bill requires a public agency to administer
its programs and activities relating to housing
and community development in a manner to
affirmatively further fair housing and not take
any action that is inconsistent with this
obligation.
This bill further supports the City’s
Housing Program as established
in the Housing Element.
SB 1333
(Wieckowski)
Planning
Requirements
for Charter
Cities
The bill makes charter cities subject to a
number of planning laws that previously only
applied to general law cities. These include laws
related to general plan amendment processing,
accessory dwelling unit permitting and the
preparation of housing elements.
No impact- City is a general law
city.
AB 1919
(Wood)
Anti- “Price
Gouging”
During
Emergencies
The bill expands the existing crime of price
gouging to include new rentals that were not on
the market at the time of the emergency within
the types of goods and services that are price-
controlled in the immediate aftermath of an
emergency. The law also makes other related
reforms to limit rent increases and evictions
following an emergency.
This bill would impact the property
owners in the City following an
emergency, such as a wildfire.
5
Summary Description Impacts to the City
AB 2913
(Wood)
Extending the
Duration of
Building
Permits
This bill extends the duration of a building
permit from six months (180 days) to 12
months, as long as construction has started and
has not been abandoned. The law also provides
that a permit is subject to the building standards
in effect on the date of original issuance, and if
the permit does expire, the developer may
obtain approval from the local building official for
one or more six-month extensions.
This bill may lead to a delay in the
immediate construction of housing
units, as well as an increase in
vacant sites, which is the opposite
of the State and City’s goal to
develop housing.
In addition to the previously adopted housing bills, the State Legislature continues to
propose new legislation to further address housing concerns at a local level throughout
the State. Of particular note, Senate Bill 50 (Weiner) would provide incentives for the
construction of high density housing near "high-quality transit", meaning within a half-
mile of a rail station or a quarter-mile of a bus stop with frequent service (15 to 20
minutes) and also in job-rich areas, as identified by the HCD and OPR. The proposed
bill is currently under review by the Committees on Housing, and Government &
Finance. The adoption of the bill may provide opportunities for high density residential
development along transit corridors in the City such as Western Avenue and Hawthorne
Boulevard. City Staff will continue to monitor and report on the status of the bill.
2017 STATE OF CALIFORNIA HOUSING PACKAGE UPDATE
During last year’s reporting period, City Staff provided information on the State’s 2017
Housing Package, which consisted of 15 bills that were signed by then-Governor Brown
and intended to address the State’s housing crisis by focusing on housing funding,
development streamlining and providing for local accountability measures. Of the 15
bills, City Staff was particularly concerned with Senate Bill 35 (Weiner), which
streamlines the development approval process of qualified affordable housing projects
in jurisdictions that have not met their RHNA targets. As identified in Table B of the
2018 Annual Progress Report (Attachment A), the City is required to provide 31 units in
varying income levels. To date, the City has provided 18 units with 13 remaining that
needs to be provided by the year 2021.
While cities do not control local market realities or the availability of funding to support
the development of affordable housing, cities are required to ensure that enough land is
zoned within their respective jurisdictions to accommodate affordable housing. Staff
anticipates that the housing programs identified in the Housing Element would provide
the required units by 2021 if the City rezones or creates an overlay zone for the property
at 29619 Western Avenue to allow a minimum of 20 dwelling units/acre, in which case
the site can accommodate a minimum of 8 “Low” income units. In order to provide for
the “Moderate" income units, City Staff will continue to track the construction of second
or accessory dwelling units in the City.
6
Since the City has reported to HCD fewer building permits than its RHNA share, the City
is subject to Senate Bill 35’s streamlining provisions. Senate Bill 35 streamlines the
approval process for development projects proposed for infill sites tha t comply with an
existing multi-family residential zoning designation. During this reporting period, the
Planning Division did not receive any, nor does it anticipate, new housing unit
development applications seeking streamlining provisions eligible under Senate Bill 35.
City Staff will continue to monitor and report on the status of any filed applications.
In summary, the passage of the extensive housing bill packages and housing bills
currently under consideration demonstrates the State’s commitment to address present
and future housing issues. The Zoning Code update recently initiated by the City
Council may provide an opportunity for the City to assess and ensure that existing
housing regulations, including Second Dwelling Unit standards and the Inclusionary
Housing requirement, are consistent with State requirements. Through the Zoning Code
update, City Staff will work with elected and appointed officials, as well as the public, to
prepare housing regulations that meet State housing law and are true to the goals and
policies of the City’s General Plan.
ALTERNATIVES:
In addition to the Staff recommendation, the following alternative actions is available for
the City Council’s consideration:
1. Identify additional information to be included in the Housing Element 2018
Annual Progress Report prior to forwarding the report to the required State
agencies.
