Agenda Item

16. HOUSING ELEMENT REZONE IMPLEMENTING PROGRAMS 1.1A, 1.1B, 1.1F, AND 1.1G OF THE 6TH CYCLE 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT OF THE GENERAL PLAN Under State law, the City's Housing Element must show that the City can provide its fair share of regional housing over an eight-year period (2021 to 2029). The City's share of housing is established by a process called the Regional Housing Needs Allocation ("RHNA").The current RHNA mandates the City to accommodate the construction of at least 6,782 dwelling units. However, the City's current zoning can only accommodate 4,614 new dwellings; which results in a shortfall of 2,168 units. Pursuant to the mandates of State law, the City established a "rezone program" in the Housing Element that specifies properties that will be rezoned to residential to resolve the shortfall. After lengthy public engagement and input, surveys, workshops, and hearings, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the Housing Element on September 13, 2022, and the City Council adopted the Housing Element on October 4, 2022. The adopted Housing Element included programs to accommodate the RHNA shortfall by rezoning areas of Tustin Legacy, the Enderle Center, and the Tustin Market Place. The adopted Housing Element was then submitted to the California Department of Housing and Community Development ("HCD"), and subsequently, the City received certification by HCD on October 10, 2022. The proposed Housing Element Rezone implements the City's adopted and certified Housing Element.
