Analysis:
A. PROJECT PROPOSAL.-
Applicant: City of Huntington Beach
Location: Citywide
The Housing Element Status Report represents a report on the progress of the Housing
Element of the City's General Plan. The Housing Element is a citywide plan for housing,
including the provision of affordable housing, in the City of Huntington Beach and was
updated in 2008 for the 2008-2014 planning period in accordance with State law.
Section 65400 of the California Government Code establishes a requirement for each
jurisdiction to prepare an annual report on the status of the housing element and the
progress in its implementation. Although charter cities are exempt from preparing an annual
report, an annual report is necessary to remain eligible for funding of programs that require
submittal of the report. The City has prepared the Housing Element Status Report utilizing
forms adopted by HCD in accordance with the California Code of Regulations.
B. BACKGROUND
The 2008-2014 Housing Element was adopted by the City Council on June 16, 2008 and
forwarded to HCD for final review. On July 29, 2008 HCD certified the City's Housing
Element. On May 17, 2010, the City Council approved the first Housing Element Status
Report and forwarded it to the State agencies.
The 2008-2014 Housing Element consists of five sections that include an identification and
analysis of existing and projected housing needs in the City, an inventory of resources and
constraints relevant to meeting the City's housing needs and a statement of goals, policies,
quantified objectives, financial resources and scheduled programs for the preservation,
improvement and development of housing.
C. STAFF ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATION
The Housing Element Status Report (Attachment No. 1) consists of a report on the following
items:
1. Annual Building Activity Report (2010) — Low- and Very Low-Income Units and
Mixed-Income Multi-Family Units (Table A);
2. Annual Building Activity Report (2010) — Summary for Units Rehabilitated, Preserved
and Acquired pursuant to Government Code Section 65583.1(c)(1) (Table A2);
3. Annual Building Activity Report (2010) — Summary for Moderate- and Above
Moderate-Income Units (Table A3);
4. Regional Housing Needs Allocation Progress (Table B); and
5. Program Implementation Status (Table C).
The report also contains a section for general comments that includes the status of pending
housing project applications and an update of potential future projects in the City.
Item 10. - 2 H -192-
REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION
MEETING DATE: 5/16/2011 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: PL11-006
Annual Building Activity Report (Tables A—A3)
Tables A through A3 include building permit activity for the 2010 calendar year. Due to slow
economic growth and a continued depressed housing market, the City only issued permits for
25 new units in 2010. Of the 25 units, five are single-family homes, one is a second dwelling
unit, and 19 are multi-family units. Thirteen of the multi-family units are part of the first two
phases of the 201-unit Pacific Shores project, which was entitled in 2006. The remaining six
multi-family units consist of Pacific Sun, a very-low income family rental project made
possible through a partnership of the Redevelopment Agency and Colette's Children
Home/Chelsea Investments. The five single-family dwellings and 13 Pacific Shores units
would be categorized in the above-moderate income category while the one second dwelling
unit could be categorized in the moderate income category.
No permits were issued in 2010 for the provision of very-low or low-income units as a result
of acquisition/rehabilitation, acquisition/conversion or preservation of "at-risk" housing
projects. It should be noted that permits were issued for the rehabilitation of the 164-unit
very-low income Emerald Cove senior housing development, which was a result of a
partnership between the Redevelopment Agency and Jamboree Housing. However, the
project cannot be credited toward fulfilling the City's RHNA obligation since it does not meet
criteria required by Section 65583.1(c) of the California Government Code.
Regional Housing Needs Allocation Progress (Table B)
State Housing Element Law requires that each city and county develop local housing
programs to meet its "fair share" of existing and future housing needs for all income groups,
as determined by the jurisdiction's Council of Governments. In the Southern California
region, the agency responsible for assigning the regional housing needs to each jurisdiction
is the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG). For the 2008-2014 planning
period, Huntington Beach was determined to have a regional housing need (RHNA) of 2,092
units. Table B of the Status Report provides a breakdown, by income category, of the City's
progress in meeting the RHNA allocation for the years 2006 through 2010 and is
summarized in the table below. It should be noted that years 2006 and 2007 are not
included in the 2008-2014 planning period. However, the previous planning period ended in
2005 and these two years are considered a "gap period," and therefore, the City can count
184 units for these years toward the 2008-2014 RHNA.

REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION
MEETING DATE: 5/16/2011 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: PL11-006
Despite three consecutive years of stalled housing production, from 2006 — 2010, a total of
310 units have been provided toward meeting the City's regional housing goal of 2,092 units.
Notably, the City has produced more very-low income RHNA units than any other income
category except for above-moderate. In terms of new construction, the City experienced a
decrease in building permits for new units starting in 2007 with a more substantial decrease
in 2008, 2009, and 2010. As an example, the combined total of new units for which building
permits were issued in years 2008 through 2010 makes up approximately 50 percent of new
units permitted in 2006. With half of the planning period remaining, the City still needs to
meet approximately 85 percent of its RHNA goal.
The City did begin to see indicators that may signify a rebound from three consecutive years
of slow housing growth. The City issued permits in 2010 for the first two phases (13 units) of
the 201-unit Pacific Shores development that was entitled in 2006 and went through a
change in ownership of the property during the recession. As the phases are constructed
and permits issued for the remaining units in 2011, the project will ultimately provide 21 on-
site inclusionary units (3 low-income and 18 median-income). Additionally, in 2010, the City
entitled 467-units as part of a mixed use development that would provide 15 percent
affordable on-site units (42 moderate income and 28 very-low income units) and approved a
124-room/144-bed assisted living facility. Other housing-related planning activity in 2010
included submittal of a site plan review application for a mixed use project located within the
Beach and Edinger Corridors Specific Plan (BECSP) consisting of 487 rental units including
47 moderate income and 10 very-low income units on-site. The project was ultimately
approved in early 2011 and is currently in plan check for demolition and grading permits.
Environmental review for two additional BECSP mixed use projects, which would result in
384 new housing units with 39 inclusionary units, commenced in 2010 as well. Since the
BECSP was adopted in early 2010 allowing for a total of 4,500 new housing units on the
Beach Boulevard and Edinger Avenue corridors, the City has met with various interested
applicants seeking to develop infill housing units along the corridors and anticipates several
site plan review submittals over the next year.
Program Implementation Status (Table C)
The 2008-2014 Housing Element identifies 24 programs for meeting the City's housing
needs. Each program includes a goal and objective, responsible agency, funding source
and program schedule as required by State law. For each of the 24 programs, Table C
identifies the program by name in the Housing Element, the objective, program schedule and
current status of the program.
The City was able to achieve or make progress on most of the program goals specified in the
Housing Element including the following:
Provision of 66 very-low and low-income units through acquisition/rehabilitation projects
and six very-low income units of new construction that are being developed with City
assistance;
Entitled 954 multi-family units, which would result in 89 moderate income units and 38
very-low income units;
Provided technical assistance to American Family Housing on a new Continuum of Care
application, which is in the final approval stage at HUD and would provide 10
transitional units in the City;
Item 10. - 4 H -194-
REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION
MEETING DATE: 5/16/2011 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: PL11-006
Re-instatement of a full-time Project Self-Sufficiency Program Coordinator with
assistance provided to 123 people in 58 households in the 2009-2010 fiscal year and
developed and administers a Homeless Prevention and Rapid ReHousing Program
(HPRP), which assists those clients whose housing is unstable or who are homeless.
Clients are seen more frequently and offered intensive case management/direct
services, which is a new component for the program;
• Adoption of the Beach and Edinger Corridors Specific Plan (BECSP) in 2010, which
provides for a total of 4,500 new units and requires off-site inclusionary units to be
provided within the specific plan area and provides incentives (by way of a fee reduction
ordinance yet to be adopted by the City) for exceeding the minimum number of
inclusionary units; and
• Adopted two Specific Plans that include development standards requiring green building
elements in every new development project.
Additional Information
In addition to the development of the 6-unit very-low income family rental project, the
Redevelopment Agency acquired the 164-unit very-low income Emerald Cove senior housing
development from the City. The Agency partnered with Jamboree Housing to convey the
property to the non-profit housing developer and provided assistance for rehabilitation of the
entire complex, which is covenant-restricted to provide affordable senior units in perpetuity.
The City's Housing Division has met with various interested developers and has indicated
that viable opportunity exists for the City/Agency to partner with affordable housing
developers to provide approximately 200-300 affordable units through new construction and
acquisition/rehabilitation projects. However, because of the uncertainty regarding the
possible elimination of local redevelopment agencies as a result of the State budget process
and the unknown effect it may have on the City's available housing funds, the Agency has
not been initiating new projects for the provision of affordable housing. In addition, with the
looming possibility of the State's elimination of redevelopment agencies during the budget
process, the City approved the formation of a Housing Authority as a way to preserve the
Agency's housing funds. Finally, the Planning Division has several pending, but currently "on
hold," entitlements that would provide approximately 155 new single- and multi-family
housing units throughout the City if the entitlement process is completed and the projects are
approved.
Environmental Status:
The Housing Element Status Report is exempt under Section 15061(b)(3) of the California
Environmental Quality Act guidelines, which exempts activities where it can be seen with
certainty that there is no possibility that the activity may have a significant effect on the
environment.
Strategic Plan Goal: Maintain, improve and obtain funding for infrastructure and equipment
The Housing Element Status Report will maintain the City's eligibility for funding for housing
programs that would require submittal of the report with the application for funding.

Slow economic growth and a continued depressed housing market resulted in another year of limited permit activity for new housing
construction. In addition, because of the uncertainty regarding the State budget and fate of redevelopment agencies and the affect it may
have on the City's available housing funds, the Agency has not been initiating new projects for the provision of affordable housing.
However, the City did see signs of life that may signify a rebound from three consecutive years of slow housing growth. In addition to the
development of the 6-unit very-low income family rental project, the Redevelopment Agency acquired the City-owned 164-unit very-low
income senior housing complex Emerald Cove. The Agency partnered with Jamboree_Housing-to convey the property-to-the non-profit _
housing developer and provided assistance for rehabilitation of the entire complex, which is covenant-restricted to provide affordable
senior units in perpetuity. The City also issued permits in 2010 for the first two phases (13 units) of a 201-unit development that was
entitled in 2006. As the phases are constructed and permits issued for the remaining units in 2011, the project will ultimately provide 21
on-site inclusionary units (3 low-income and 18 median-income). Additionally, in 2010, the City entitled 467-units as part of a mixed use
development that would provide 15 percent affordable on-site units (42 moderate income and 28 very-low income units) and approved a
124-room/144-bed assisted living facility. Other housing-related planning activity in 2010 included submittal of a site plan review
application for a mixed use project located within the Beach and Edinger Corridors Specific Plan (BECSP) consisting of 487 rental units
CD including 47 moderate income and 10 very-low income units on-site. The project was ultimately approved in early 2011 and is currently in
plan check. Environmental review for two additional BECSP mixed use projects, which would result in 384 new housing units with 39
inclusionary units, commenced in 2010 as well. Since the BECSP was adopted in early 2010 allowing for a total of 4,500 new housing
units on the Beach Boulevard and Edinger Avenue corridors, the City has met with various interested developers seeking to develop infill
housing units along the corridors and anticipates several site plan review submittals over the next year. The City's Housing Division has
met with various interested developers and has indicated that viable opportunity exists for the City/Agency to partner with affordable
housing developers to provide approximately 200-300 affordable units through new construction and acquisition/rehabilitation projects
when the State's budget is resolved. The City also approved the formation of a Housing Authority as a way to preserve the Agency's
housing funds. Finally, there are several pending, but currently"on-hold," entitlements that, if approved, would result in the development
of approximately 155 new single- and multi-family units throughout the City as well as a previously approved project in the process of
securing financing that would yield 385 units, including 39 of which would be affordable.
