  2. State & Local Roles In Housing • The California Legislature & courts have repeatedly asserted housing as an issue of statewide concern • State interest in an adequate supply of housing: * critical to state economy * critical to well being of residents * critical to protecting environment • Most fundamental decisions about housing supply & affordability maintained at local level, but with State and regional involvement

  3. Major Housing Principles of State Law since the 1970s • All communities are responsible for planning to accommodate both resident population and growth in new households that are expected to reside within the area • Adequate provision for housing needs for households of all incomes, a.k.a. “fair share planning” including Very Low, Low, Moderate, and Above Moderate income households, adjusting for overconcentration of lower income households

  4. Housing Planning Plays Important Roles • Accommodating shelter needs of diverse and growing population • Accommodating adequate and balanced housing supply for economic and employment growth • Providing appropriately zoned residential land to accommodate timely response of the housing industry to market conditions • Facilitating regulatory certainty for transparent and efficient residential permit processing • Planning for provision of housing assistance and regulatory incentives

  5. Key State Housing & Planning Laws • Housing Element Law • State Density Bonus Law • Second Unit Law/Accessory Dwelling Units • Anti-NIMBY (Housing Accountability Act) • No Net Residential Capacity Loss • Limited Conditional Use for Multifamily (MF) in MF Zones • Least Cost Zoning • Article 34 re: voter authorization & public housing • Fair Housing laws with land use provisions

  6. Growing Role of ADUs 2016 Legislation SB 1069 (Wieckowski) – addresses parking, fee and  fire sprinkler & ministerial permitting issues; prohibits precluding ADUs AB 2299 (Bloom) – addresses parking, allowable size, and setback requirements AB 2406 (Thurmond) – authorized junior accessory dwelling units (JADUs)

  7. State Housing Element Law’s Regional Housing Needs Allocations (RHNA) • Increasing housing supply & mix of housing types, tenure & affordability • Promoting infill development & socioeconomic equity, protection of environmental & agricultural resources, & encouraging efficient development patterns • Promoting improved intraregional jobs-housing relationship • Balancing disproportionate household income distributions

  8. Housing Element Update Process Engage with the public to consider Evaluate Effectiveness of Past Programs Develop Programs w/ Quantified Objectives (“Action Plan”) • Upgrade housing stock • Special needs groups (seniors, disabled, homeless) • Address displacement and loss • of affordable housing • Ensure fair housing opportunity • Reduce parking • Reduce impact fees • Streamline application review process • Rezone land to accommodate RHNA • Provide financial/regulatory incentives for housing development • Zone for multifamily, farmworker, ADU, etc

  14. A Study of State Smart Growth Policies Suggested . . . • . . . if smart growth programs are to have a positive impact on housing affordability or avert a negative impact from constraints on the land market, • they must explicitly require the production of housing for low- and moderate-income households, rather than merely plan for it or ignore it completely.
