2. HOUSING ELEMENT REZONE PROJECT FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION OF PROGRAMS 1.1A, 1.1B, AND 1.1F OF THE 6TH CYCLE 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT OF THE GENERAL PLAN

The Housing Element Rezone Project is a City-initiated proposal to increase the number of properties in the City that are zoned for residential development, pursuant to the programs 1.1(a), 1.1(b) and 1.1(f) of the City's adopted General Plan Housing Element.

The Housing Element Rezone Project will bring the City into compliance with its housing obligations by accommodating an additional 2,168 dwelling units as required by the State's 6th Cycle Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA), and an additional 1,356 "buffer" units to ensure compliance with California Government Code Sec. 65863 (No-Net-Loss Law).

The Housing Element Rezoning Project will increase the development capacity within the Tustin Legacy area (Housing Element Sites 1A, 1B and 2), and rezoning property in the Enderle Center (Housing Element Site 17) and Tustin Market Place (Housing Element Sites 18) for residential uses.

The proposed project will require amendments to the General Plan Land Use Element, Tustin Legacy Specific Plan, East Tustin Specific Plan, Zoning Code and the City's Zoning Map.
