No. q/-a;t , establishing interim numerical requireqents for including lower-income housing in individual master' _$lans until final requirements, are established in a revised .Housing Element. ITEM EXPLANATION N N I cn 4 0 z v) 2 a a, u a 0 a (d 4 -rl U 5 V 0 4 cn \ N \ N 4 0 z t- o - a 6 z 2 0 o The current Housing Element established a policy and action item requiring master and specific planned communities to provide housing opportunities for all income categories, including. lower-income. To date, master plans have ' not included specific programs. to assure ' this policy is' implemented. In,particular, master plans have lacked numerical commitments to providing housing which is affordable to low and ' very low income hpuseholds. In 0rde.r to make the required findings that master plans are consistent with the General Plan, it is necessary to remedy this situation. As part of the revisions to the Housing Element (now being undertaken by staff) new long-term goals for providing lower- income housing are being developed. Lower income housing will be developed by means of a range of housing programs. The inclusion of lower-income housing in master plans and specific plans is one such program. The attached rep,ort sets out staff Is over-all recommended target.for lower-income housing for the next five-year period. It also shows how master plans and specific plans (individually and in aggregate) would contribute an appropriate share of that target. At this time, Council is not being asked ,to adopt the overall lower-income housing program. This subject will be considered later in the context of the full Housing Element, scheduled for Council actio'n next Spring.. Instead, Council is asked to direct the Planning Department to use the recommendations attached hereto as interim requirements for use by master plans and specific plans until the new 'Housing Element is adopted. Establishing overall and -individual interim.requirements is necessary to facilitate th.e processing of new master plans and specific plans and amendments to existing master plans now pending in the Planning Department. Without interim requirements, 1) these applications would need to wait for the adoption of the new housing element, or 2) the City will need to negotiate individual, numerical requirements wi.thout the . context of a comprehensive approach.
