City of Chula Vista Staff Report RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA APPROVING A THREE - PARTY AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA, DELORENZO INTERNATIONAL, AND BALDWIN AND SONS FOR PARK DESIGN SERVICES FOR OTAY RANCH VILLAGE 2, PARK P -3 (MONTECITO PARK) RECOMMENDED ACTION Council adopt the resolution. SUMMARY The Otay Ranch Village 2 Parks Agreement dated November 11, 2014, requires the Applicant to meet their neighborhood park obligations for the development, per Municipal Code 17.10, through the provision of turnkey parks. One of these turnkey parks for Village 2 is identified as Park P -3, Montecito Park. The Park P -3 Park Master Plan was approved at City Council on January 27, 2015. Baldwin and Sons, in conjunction with city staff, has obtained Requests for Proposals, interviewed four different design teams and selected one, DeLorenzo International, to enter into a three party agreement for the preparation of construction drawings and bid documents for this park. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The Development Services Director has reviewed the proposed project for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that the proposed project was adequately covered in the Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Report FSEIR 12 -01. Thus, no further environmental review or documentation is required. BOARD /COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION The Parks and Recreation Commission approved the Park P -3 Park Master Plan on March 20, 2014, prior to City Council approval. DISCUSSION On November 11, 2014 the City Council approved the Village 2 Parks Agreement by City Council resolution 2014 -213. The agreement allows the Applicant, Baldwin and Sons, to develop turnkey neighborhood parks in lieu of paying park development fees per the parkland Development Ordinance, Chapter 17.10 of the Municipal Code. The first neighborhood park in Village 2 required to be developed is Park P -3, Montecito Park. The Landscape Master Plan for Montecito Park was approved at City Council on January 27, 2015 by resolution 2014 -213. City of Chula Vista Page 1 of 3 Printed on 5/7/2015 powered by Leg 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 28 File #: 15 -0118, Item #: 2. One of the conditions of the Parks Agreement was that the Applicant, in conjunction with the City, would solicit the landscape architecture and design work necessary for the construction of neighborhood parks through the same Request for Proposal process that would otherwise be used by the City to engage similar services. Baldwin and Sons, in conjunction with City staff, issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for landscape architectural consultants and subsequently interviewed the four design teams who best met the criteria listed in the RFP. The consultant selected was DeLorenzo International. In accordance with the Village 2 Parks Agreement, staff is recommending that the City of Chula Vista, Baldwin and Sons and DeLorenzo International enter into a three party agreement with a scope of work to provide construction drawings, bid documents, and observation functions during the park construction. Baldwin and Sons and DeLorenzo International will also enter into a separate agreement with each other that includes details of design fees and payments for the design work. DECISION -MAKER CONFLICT Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the City Council and has found no property holdings within 500 feet of the boundaries of the property which is the subject of this action. Staff is not independently aware, nor has staff been informed by any City Councilmember, of any other fact that may constitute a basis for a decision maker conflict of interest in this matter. LINK TO STRATEGIC GOALS The City's Strategic Plan has five major goals: Operational Excellence, Economic Vitality, Healthy Community, Strong and Secure Neighborhoods and a Connected Community. The Park P -3 will address strategic goals 2.1.3 (quality Master Plan Communities) and 3.1 (Healthy Community) by providing increased recreational opportunities for residents in eastern Chula Vista. CURRENT YEAR FISCAL IMPACT There will be no impact to the General Fund. The applicant will fully compensate the Consultant for consulting services and will also reimburse the City for all associated staffing costs through the projects' deposit accounts. ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT Approval of the three -party Agreement will not result in on -going fiscal impacts since the applicant is solely responsible for compensating the consultant and reimbursing the City for all associated staffing costs. The production of Montecito park construction documents is a one time work effort. The construction drawings are expected to be complete by the end of the year. ATTACHMENTS 1. Resolution 2.

Both the Consolidated Plan and the Annual Action Plan are included in this report for consideration and approval. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The Development Services Director has reviewed the proposed activities for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The proposed activities, with the exception of two, are not considered "Projects" as defined under Section 15378(b)(5) of the State CEQA Guidelines because the proposals consist of a reporting action, is not for a site specific project(s) and will not result in a direct or indirect physical change in the environment. Therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines, these activities are not subject to CEQA. Under NEPA, the activities qualify for a Certification of Exemption pursuant to Title 24, Part 58.34(a)(2) &(3) of the Code of Federal Regulations and pursuant to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Environmental Guidelines. Thus, no further environmental review is necessary at this time.

The remaining projects, Moss Street and Rice Elementary Fire Hydrant, are capital improvement projects which are categorically excluded under NEPA pursuant to 24 CFR 58.35 (a)(1) of the NEPA regulations. This project is also exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA guidelines Section 15301 (existing facilities). The activity will not affect density or land use and will have no significant effect on the environment. BOARD /COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION Not applicable. DISCUSSION As an entitlement community with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, the City receives funds under three block grant programs: • Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) • Home Investment Partnerships (HOME) • Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) The grant amounts allocated to each jurisdiction are determined using a formula based on statistical and demographic data. The funds aim to address HUD's performance measurement framework of providing decent housing, a suitable living environment, and to expand economic opportunities principally for low- and moderate - income persons. As a recipient of these funds, the City is required to prepare a Consolidated Plan (Con Plan) for these HUD funds describing the housing and community development needs of the City's low and moderate income residents and outlining strategies to address those needs over a five year period. The ConPlan provides the necessary policy guidance for implementation of programs and services to be funded by the HUD grants in addressing the needs and is detailed in its Annual Action Plan prepared each year and submitted to HUD as its application for funding. The City is currently in the last year of its 2010 -2015 Con Plan. Housing staff has prepared the Con Plan for the July 1, 2015 to June 30, 2019 period (Attachment No. 1) as well as the Action Plan for the 2015/2016 program year (Attachment No. 2). The Action Plan must be submitted to HUD 45 days prior to the beginning of the fiscal year and constitutes its application for the grant funds. Both plans will be submitted to HUD by May 15, 2015. 2015/16 Grant Funding On February 18, 2015, the City received notification of the 2015/16 funding allocations from HUD for the following programs: • CDBG: $1,769,214 • HOME: $571,833 • ESG: $153,270 In addition to the 2015/16 CDBG entitlement funds, there is $193,726 and $285,350of prior -year CDBG and HOME funds, respectively, available for reprogramming to eligible activities City of Chula Vista Page 2 of 5 Printed on 5/7/2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 58 File #: 15 -0166, Item #: 3.

In compliance with HUD regulations, a written contract and /or Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) will then be executed between the City and each department, non - profit, entity, and /or client that is a direct recipient and operating a project/program and beneficiaries of rental assistance funded through the CDBG, ESG and HOME grant funds. The sample Subrecipient Agreement and and MOA for the CDBG and ESG programs are included as Attachments 4 through 6. DECISION -MAKER CONFLICT Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the City Council and has found no property holdings within 500 feet of the boundaries of the Moss Street Sidewalk Project and the Rice Elementary Health Center Fire Hydrant project. Staff is not independently aware, and has not been informed by any City Council member, of any other fact that may constitute a basis for a decision maker conflict of interest in this matter. LINK TO STRATEGIC GOALS The City's Strategic Plan has five major goals: Operational Excellence, Economic Vitality, Healthy Community, Strong and Secure Neighborhoods and a Connected Community. The activities funded through the federal grant programs are directed towards the revitalization of neighborhoods, economic development opportunities, and improved facilities and services. The nature of these activities is consistent with the Goals, Strategies and Initiatives in Goal 5: Connected City of Chula Vista Page 4 of 5 Printed on 5/7/2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 60 File #: 15 -0166, Item #: 3. Community. Strategy 5. 1: Encourage Residents to Engage in Civic Activities Initiative 5.12. Fosters an Environment of Community Involvement The City has developed a detailed Citizen Participation Plan (CPP) which requires the participation of the community. The CPP requires the City to provide citizens with reasonable and timely access to meetings, information, and records related to the grantee's proposed and actual use of funds. A minimum of two public hearings are held annually to obtain citizen participation at all stages of the Five -Year Consolidated Plan and Action Plan. This includes the identification of priorities, review of proposed activities, and review of program performance. Strategy 52. Provide Opportunities that Enrich the Community's Quality of Life Initiative 5.2.1: Provide Services and Programs Responsive to Priorities Consistent with the funding priorities established in the 2015 -2019 Consolidated Plan, the CDBG, HOME and ESG activities selected are aimed at providing affordable housing opportunities and a suitable living environment with adequate public facilities, infrastructure and services. Services that support the elderly, disabled, homeless, and youth all contribute to community's quality of life. CURRENT YEAR FISCAL IMPACT At this time, Council is approving the funding recommendations for CDBG, HOME, and ESG funds. This action does not include appropriations. Appropriations for the proposed CDBG, HOME and ESG programs will be included as part of the City Manager's FY 2015/16 proposed budget. There is no fiscal impact to the General Fund as a result of this action. In the remote event that HUD should withdraw the City's CDBG, ESG, and HOME funding; the agreements provide that the City is not obligated to compensate the sub - recipients for program expenditures. ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT There is no ongoing fiscal impact to the City's General Fund as all costs associated with the administration of the CDBG, HOME and ESG programs are covered by the respective grants.

Introduction Beginning in fiscal year 1995, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) required local communities and states to prepare a Consolidated Plan (ConPlan) in order to receive federal housing and community development funding. A ConPlan is required of any city, county or state that receives federal block grant funding for housing and community development funding, including the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG), the HOME Investment Partnerships Program, and the Housing Opportunities for People with AIDS ( HOPWA) program. A ConPlan is required to be prepared every three to five years; updates are required annually. The City of Chula Vista, as an entitlement jurisdiction, receives CDBG, ESG and HOME funds but does not receive HOPWA funds as these funds are granted only to the largest jurisdiction within a County. In San Diego County, these funds go to the City of San Diego. However, the City of San Diego contracts with the County of San Diego to administer the HOPWA funds for the entire San Diego Region. The federal block grants are distributed on formula basis to entitlement jurisdictions to develop viable urban communities by providing decent housing, a suitable living environment, and by expanding economic opportunities, principally for low -and moderate - income persons. HUD defines moderate income as an annual household income that is equal to or less than the Section 8 Low Income limit of 80% of the County's Area Median Income (AMI), as established by HUD. HUD defines low income as household having an income that is equal to, or less than, the Section 8 Very Low Income limit of 50% of the County's AMI. At the time of publication of this ConPlan, Program Year 2015, the San Diego County 80% AMI is $64,800 for a family of four and the San Diego County 50% AMI is $40,550 for a family of four. HUD determines the amount of each grant by using a formula comprised of measures of community need, including population, percentage of population in poverty, the number of overcrowded housing units, number of pre -1940 housing and population growth lag in relationship to other metropolitan areas. The purpose of the ConPlan is to (1) identify the City's housing and community development needs, priorities, goals and strategies, and (2) stipulate how CDBG /ESG /HOME funds will be allocated to housing and community development activities. This Five -Year ConPlan for the City of Chula Vista and covers program years 2015 -2019 and the three federal grant programs the City receives. The City's corresponding fiscal year is July 1 to June 30 of each year. Below is a summary of the three federal grant programs: Community Development Block Grant program (CDBG) CDBG program has three national objectives: 1. To benefit low -and moderate - income people 2. To prevent or eliminate slums or blight 3. To meet other community development needs having a particular urgency because existing conditions pose a serious and immediate threat to the health or welfare of the community and other financial resources are not available to meet such needs, as in the case of a federal disaster declaration. Consolidated Plan 1 1 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 67 Once it is determined that a national objective has been met, CDBG funds must then be used for eligible activities, including but not limited to, public facilities and improvements (parks, streets, sidewalks), public services within certain limits ( fair housing, health services, senior services, food distribution) and housing (development, acquisition, rehabilitation). The ConPlan process requires a public hearing to solicit comments on the goals and priorities. The Annual Action Plan (AAP) serves as the spending plan for each fiscal year. After the public review period, the ConPlan and AAP are submitted to HUD for approval. Once the documents are approved, HUD prepares a Grant Agreement authorizing the City to use Grant funds on July 1St of each year. There are several other requirements to receiving CDBG entitlement grant funds. They are: 1. Annual Action Plan (AAP). The AAP is completed each year and designates how the city will spend CDBG funds in a given program year. 2. Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Plan (CAPER).The CAPER reports on how funds were actually spent versus the proposed AAP, the households that benefitted from the CDBG funding, and the progress made toward meeting the ConPlan's annual objectives for housing and community development. 3. Fair Housing Requirement. HUD requires that cities receiving block grant funds take actions to affirmatively further fair housing choice. Cities report on the progress of affirmatively furthering fair house choice by completing an Analysis of Impediments (AI). The Al is a review of the nature and extent of impediments to fair housing choice in the San Diego Region and the City of Chula Vista. Home Investment Partnership Act Program (HOME) The HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) can be used to fund a wide range of activities including building, buying, and /or rehabilitating affordable housing for rent or homeownership or providing direct rental assistance to low- income people. HOME is the second largest Federal block grant received by the City of Chula Vista designed exclusively to create affordable housing for low- income households. HOME funds are awarded annually as formula grants to the City of Chula Vista as a participating jurisdiction (PJ). The program's flexibility allows the City to use HOME funds for grants, direct loans, loan guarantees or other forms of credit enhancements, or rental assistance or security deposits. The U.S Department of Housing and Urban Development's HOME program was designed to reinforce several important values and principles of community development: • HOME's flexibility empowers people and communities to design and implement strategies tailored to their own needs and priorities. • HOME's emphasis on consolidated planning expands and strengthens partnerships among all levels of government and the private sector in the development of affordable housing. • HOME's technical assistance activities and set -aside for qualified community -based nonprofit housing groups builds the capacity of these partners. • HOME's requirement that participating jurisdictions match 25 cents of every dollar in program funds mobilizes community resources in support of affordable housing. The eligibility of households for HOME assistance varies with the nature of the funded activity. For rental housing and rental assistance, at least 90 percent of benefiting families must have incomes that are no more than 60 Consolidated Plan 1 2 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 68 percent of the HUD - adjusted median family income for the area. In rental projects with five or more assisted units, at least 20% of the units must be occupied by families with incomes that do not exceed 50% of the HUD - adjusted median. The incomes of households receiving HUD assistance must not exceed 80 percent of the area median. HOME income limits are published each year by HUD. Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) The HEARTH Act revised the Emergency Shelter Grants Program to create the Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG) Program. The ESG Program provides funding to: (1) improve the number and quality of emergency shelters for homeless individuals and families; (2) help operate these shelters; (3) provide essential social services to shelter residents; and (4) prevent families and individuals from becoming homeless. 2. Summary of the objectives and outcomes identified in the Plan Needs Assessment The U.S. Department of HUD Community Planning and Development (CPD) dictate that all CDBG, HOME and ESG activities must meet one of the three following objectives: Suitable Living Environment, Decent Housing, or Creating Economic Opportunities. Once the objective of the activity is selected, HUD CPD provides a choice of three outcome categories to describe the outcome of the activity. The outcomes are availability /accessibility, affordability, or sustainability. The primary objectives in the City's 2015 -2019 Consolidated Plan are selected from the following objectives: Suitable Living Environment and Decent Housing. The City of Chula Vista does not currently use CDBG funds specifically for the third objective, Creating Economic Opportunities but may implement programs for economic development to achieve this objective during this ConPlan period. During the ConPlan period, the Development Services - Housing Division will work closely with the Economic Development Department to produce a comprehensive Strategic Plan to successfully implement ED activities in accordance with HUD guidelines. The objectives and outcomes are listed with the proposed activities and funding sources • Public Infrastructure Improvements • HUD CPD Objective- Creating Suitable Living Environments • HUD CPD Outcome - Availability /Accessibility • Sidewalk Improvements (CDBG, State Grant Funds) • Park Improvements (CDBG, HCD Parks Related Grant funds) • Public Facility Improvements (CDBG, HCD Parks Related Grant funds) • CIP projects to be identified in qualifying census tracts (CDBG) • Americans With Disabilities (ADA) improvements to public facilities and infrastructure (CDBG) • Housing Programs • HUD CPD Objective- Decent Housing (HOME And CDBG) • HUD CPD Outcomes - Affordability and Sustainability • Down payment assistance loans for first -time homebuyers (HOME) • Homeowner rehabilitation loans for health and safety repairs (CDBG) • Neighborhood revitalization events (CDBG) • New Construction of Affordable Rental Housing (HOME) • Acquisition and Rehabilitation of Affordable Rental Housing (CDBG, HOME) • Housing Assistance with Case Management (HOME and ESG) Consolidated Plan 1 3 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 69 • Non - Profit Coordination - Public Services • HUD CPD Objective - Suitable Living Environment • HUD CPD Outcomes - Availability /Accessibility ■ Funding to ensure the provision of information for help with primary financial, food, physical health, community development and housing needs (CDBG) • Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing • HUD CPD Objective- Decent Housing • HUD CPD Outcome - Availability /Accessibility • Fair Housing Services (CDBG) • Fair Housing Testing (CDBG) • Regional Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (City's Pro Rata Share) (CDBG) For public service grants to non - profits, the City utilizes 15% of its CDBG annual entitlement on a competitive basis and its ESG funds to serve homeless clientele. A Notice of Funding Availability is released in the winter and invites non - profit organizations that demonstrate an ability to provide needed services that directly benefit the residents of the City of Chula Vista to apply for funding. The use of the CDBG public service funds and ESG funds, for non- profits, enables these types of organizations to leverage other funding sources for projects and activities that will serve the greatest number of residents with the limited amount of funding. 3. Evaluation of past performance Public Infrastructure. The City of Chula Vista utilizes the majority of its CDBG funding to repay a Section 108 loan that was used for public infrastructure improvements in the Castle Park area of the City. During the last Consolidated Plan (2010- 2015), the City used approximately 47% of its Entitlement funds for capital improvement projects that directly benefited area residents, as described below: Table 1. Capital Improvement Projects Funded Project Section 108 Payments (2010 -2015) $4,542,525.40 Third Avenue Streetscape $1,574,849.24 ADA Curb Cuts (2010, 2012, 2013) $514,671.55 Launderbach Facility Improvements $181,999.07 Eucalyptus Park Accessibility Improvements $175,000.00 Chula Vista Family Center Improvements $102,999.80 Total Expenditures $7,092,045.06 In addition, due to the City's proactive partnership with affordable housing developers, the City was eligible to receive funding from the State of California Housing and Community Development (State HCD) under its Parks Related Housing Grants Program in 2013. While these funds are awarded based upon production of affordable housing, the funds are used for capital improvement projects. The City has invested these dollars in capital improvement projects in Low and Moderate Income areas of the City of Chula Vista to maximize the amount of funding received by State HCD. Consolidated Plan 1 4 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 70 Table 2. HCD Housing Related Parks Grants Program (HRP) Project Name Housing Related Parks Program $488,400 Memorial Park (ADA entrance to Museum and $62,406.86 Landscaping) PR -317 Eucalyptus Park Improvements -PR -317 Renovations and $220,687.32 Improvements to the Tennis Courts Launderbach Improvements (Parking Lot Paving) $12,000.00 Norman Park (Removable Walls) $200,000.00 Woman's Center (Roof Repairs) $10,000.00 Total Expenditures (included other funding) $505,094.18* *anticipated grant award was $517,000, but the City received $488,400 from HCD. ADA Improvements. The City has used CDBG funds for improvements to City facilities and infrastructure. During the last ConPlan period, the City installed ADA curb ramps and accessible pedestrian signals throughout low and moderate income areas of the City, i, made ADA improvements to the Ken Lee Building, installed new sidewalks along C Street in front of Eucalyptus Park, and removed architectural barriers along Third Avenue (Phase I of the Third Avenue Streetscape Project). In addition, CDBG funds were used to purchase accessible doors for the Chula Vista Family Health Center. Davis Bacon Compliance. The City of Chula Vista ensures compliance with Davis Bacon prevailing wage requirements by the following actions: notifying contractors on federal construction projects of prevailing wage requirements in the bid announcement; attaching the current prevailing wage determination and HUD's Making Davis Bacon Work guide to the bid; researching contractor in the SAMS database to ensure contractor is in good standing; and obtaining self- certifications regarding disbarment and compliance with federal contracting requirements. As needed, staff attends pre -bid conference to confirm each contractor bidding on the CDBG funded project has a complete understanding of all requirements. Section 3 Compliance. The City of Chula Vista staff attended two Section 3 Compliance workshops presented by the HUD Los Angeles Office. The Section 3 training assists the City in enforcing Section 3 requirements on all construction projects using federal funds. City staff attended all pre -bid construction meetings to inform contractors performing on City projects of Section 3 compliance requirements and the importance of hiring Section 3 sub - contractors or residents if there are any new hires. The City included the required Section 3 clauses in every bid package and contract. City contracts utilizing federal funds included clauses that state compliance with federal requirements are mandatory and City requires signed certification from contractor stating they will comply with all federal contracting requirements. Fair Housing. The City of Chula Vista is committed to affirmatively furthering fair housing. The City contracted with CSA of San Diego County to provide fair housing services and testing. After the last the three rounds of testing in the last five years, there was some evidence of discrimination. CSA of San Diego County provided trainings to Property Managers and staff to educate them on compliance with the Fair Housing Act to ensure that the issues identified by the testers do not occur again. CSA also worked closely with the City's Code Enforcement staff to ensure that landlords are making the necessary repair to the rental units. The City also encouraged multi - family property managers to enroll in the City's "Crime Free Multi- Housing" program. Consolidated Plan 1 5 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 71 Continuum of Care. The City of Chula Vista is an active member of the Regional Continuum of Care (RCCC). The RCCC is a large cooperative community group consisting of representatives of the 18 cities within the county, nonprofit service providers and other interested parties. The RCCC meets on a monthly basis to identify gaps in homeless services, establish funding priorities, and to pursue an overall systemic approach to addressing homelessness. During the prior Con Plan period the City provided $473,073 in Emergency Solutions Grant funds to support Emergency Shelter, Rapid Re- Housing and Homeless Prevention activities. The City also supported the Regional Task Force on the Homeless by earmarking 5% of the sub -award to Subrecipients to ensure that non - profit providers are reporting ESG client data into the required HMIS. The HMIS funding earmark for this mandated service is supported by the local Regional Continuum of Care Council. HUD's Program Assessment. Each program year of the Consolidated Plan period, the City must submit to HUD, a Consolidated Annual Performance and Review Report (CAPER) with detailed information on progress towards the priorities, goals and objectives outlined in the Consolidated Plan. HUD conducts an annual program assessment and provides feedback on the City's use of CDBG funds. For Program Years 2012, 2013, and 2014, HUD has determined that the overall performance of the City's CDBG program was satisfactory. HUD stated, "The City has addressed its overall needs in housing and community development." HUD commended the City for its progress made in these areas and for improving the quality of life for its residents and stated that all of the activities and accomplishments were consistent with the Consolidated Plan goals and strategies. The City was monitored by HUD's CPD staff for Environmental Review compliance in July 2014. During the document review HUD praised the City for receiving the prestigious Climate Leadership award from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for its comprehensive Climate Action Plan. The City has also received recognition from the Institute for Local Government and Statewide Energy Efficiency Collaborative, which recently honored the City with three Spotlight Awards for the City's efforts to save energy, reduce greenhouse emissions and adopt policies and programs that promote sustainability. The HOME funded affordable housing development included in the monitoring, "Lofts on Landis" features a number of energy saving and sustainable features such as solar panels, drought - tolerant landscaping, high efficiency lighting and energy Star appliances. Since the City uses the majority of its funding for its repayment of the Section 108 loan payment of approximately $766,578 for (FY2015) in annual installments (thought 2028), the City has been able to meet its timeliness expenditure of grant funds each year. In addition, the City closely monitors the expenditure of CDBG funds for Capital Improvement projects to ensure that the funds are spent within 12- months. There may be certain cases, where due to the nature of the capital improvement project, the project may take 18 months to complete. The City requires all projects to spend their allocated funds in a timely manner as to not cause the City to fall into an expenditure deficiency. HUD requires that the City maintain an expenditure rate that does not fall below the "1.5 test" that must be met by May of each year. 24 CFR 570.902 (a) states, a grantee may not have more than 1.5 times the entitlement grant amount for the current year remaining undisbursed from the U.S. Treasury 60 days prior to the end of the grantee's current program year. The City has consistently complied with the CDBG regulation regarding timeliness due to the careful tracking of CDBG expenditures. Given the loss of state redevelopment agency funds, the City is grateful the United States Congress continues to fund the CDBG program to assist our City's low- and moderate - income residents, as it remains the primary source to assist public services, capital improvements, and ADA improvements in low and moderate income areas or that benefit low and moderate income clientele and or households.

Summary of citizen participation process and consultation process To encourage citizen participation in the preparation of the 2015 -2019 Consolidated Plan and 2015/16 Action Plan, the City of Chula Vista conducted a community needs assessment and implemented other outreach efforts to the community. • A needs assessment survey • Available in both English and Spanish • Posted in various locations on the City's website www.chulavistaca.gov; • Informational memo to City Council offices encouraging public participation • Issued press releases • Issued social media notifications with a link to the survey • Distributed surveys at public workshops • Posted Draft ConPlan and AAP on City website and at City Offices • Provided 30 day review and comment period for ConPlan and AAP • Provided advance notice of community meetings and public hearings • Received and recorded comment received at meetings and public hearings • Meetings with the community, including: • Civic Center Meeting • Southwest Chula Vista Library Community Meeting • Survey to Social Service providers (Stakeholders) • Two public hearings before the Chula Vista City Council The City did not utilize mailed surveys to the community due to the lack of response during the prior ConPlan needs assessment in 2010. The City response rate increased by 60 percent by utilizing social media such as Facebook, Nixle, and the City's website to solicit public comments and participation. The needs assessment process also included consultations with other City departments to assess needs in the City's low- and moderate - income communities. 5. Summary of public comments All of the public comments received are attached to the ConPlan as the Public Comment Attachment. 6. Summary of comments or views not accepted and the reasons for not accepting them All of the public comments received were accepted. 7. Summary During the next five years, Chula Vista will strive to build upon past experiences with improved efficiences and on the accomplishments of the 2010 Consolidated Plan Five -Year Strategic Plan as well addressing issues which have grown in importance or changing conditions. Notwithstanding, the City's basic housing and community development objectives have not changed. The City will continue to focus on using data - driven approaches and utilize various citizen and stakeholder participation techniques to validate the needs and priorities set in the ConPlan. As identified through the ConPlan process, specifically its citizen participation process, the following areas of need emerged as top priorities for the community: 1. Public Infrastructure, e.g. sidewalk improvements, street improvements Consolidated Plan 1 7 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 73 2. Public Services, e.g. anti -crime programs, youth activities, service to special needs populations, services to the elderly and disabled, services to homeless. 3. Economic Development, e.g. job creation, employment training 4. Community Facilities, e.g. parks and recreational facilities As a result of the needs assessment and other federal requirements, the City plans to include the following priorities for funding during the next five -year ConPlan period: ➢ Public Infrastructure - Capital Improvement Projects • New Streets and Sidewalks • Americans with Disabilities Improvements • Section 108 loan payment* ➢ Housing Programs • Fair Housing Services* • Residential Rehabilitation Loans • First -Time Homebuyer Assistance ** • Tenant Based Rental Assistance • New Construction of Affordable Rental Housing • Acquisition and Rehabilitation of properties for Affordable Rental Housing ➢ Community Development /Neighborhood Services • Improvements to existing neighborhood public facilities (i.e. recreation centers, parks, public facilities servicing low and moderate income clients) • Fire Stations * * ** • Public Services that serve special needs populations, youth, elderly, the homeless * City is required to pay the Section 108 debt service payment or use City General funds to repay the loan, ** The City is required to provide Fair Housing Services as a condition of receiving CDBG entitlement funds, * ** The City received a $1 million grant from HCD to serve First Time Homebuyers. * * ** Fire Station improvements are limited to Fire Station 1 or 5 that primary serve low income areas (LMA). This is subject to change depending on statistical data provided by HUD to determine LMA). The City will partner with other governmental entities to increase efficiency, coordinate service delivery, and leverage additional resources. The private sector assists with the provisions of services through for - profit housing developers, community housing development organizations (CHDOs), nonprofits, and other similar organizations. It is important to note that while the City has made progress in addressing its needs, the level of housing and community service needs cannot be totally remedied within the next five years without a substantial increase in the level of federal funds appropriated to HUD.

Introduction Provide a concise summary of the jurisdiction's activities to enhance coordination between public and assisted housing providers and private and governmental health, mental health and service agencies (91.215(1)). The City of Chula Vista is a member of two key organizations which rely heavily on public and private coordination in the region to address the needs of the low income community members. The Chula Vista Community Collaborative is collaboration among partners and stakeholders in Chula Vista which include; Residents and Parents; Schools and School District Staff; Social Service /Non - profit Agencies; Local Government; Faith -based Community; Health Professionals; and, Business Owners. Together, the Collaborative works to develop coordinated strategies and systems that protect the health, safety, and wellness of its residents as well as share information and resources that strengthen families and communities. Regular meetings are held with the goal of obtaining and sharing information about services, resources, employment and training opportunities, as well as any events accessible to the Chula Vista community. The meetings are a useful venue to network and efficiently coordinate activities with partnering agencies. The City of Chula Vista is also a member of the South Bay Homeless Advocacy Coalition which was formed to address the growing concern for homelessness and the lack of resources available. The goal is to educate the community on these issues and advocate for change to better serve homeless and near homeless families and individuals in our community. The Coalition is comprised of representatives from local government agencies, the school districts, social service agencies, faith based organizations and citizens. Chula Vista has very actively addressed housing needs by increasing the creation of affordable housing units (obtained required voter approval) and by working closely with affordable housing developers to increase the number of rental housing, preserve existing affordable housing, and /or extend affordability covenants. The City's Balanced Communities Policy has enhanced the coordination between City staff and Developers who seek to meet their obligations to provide affordable housing. It is the City of Chula Vista's goal is to utilize 100% of its entitlement grants to assist low /moderate income residents break the cycle of poverty through supporting social service programs. Many of the programs include multi- service programs to assist low income families back into the main stream. They include help with job readiness, educational training, counseling, child care, food clothing, housing assistance and a host of other service to help families and individuals escape the cycle of poverty. The following is a sample of the organizations the City partnered with the last ConPlan and may continue its partnership through the 2015 -2019 ConPlan: • Chula Vista Community Collaborative to provide case management and referral services; • Family Health Centers of San Diego to provide mobile medical services at various elementary schools located in low income census tracts; • Interfaith Shelter Network to provide rotational shelter and case management during the cold winter months; • Meals -on- Wheels to provide daily hot meal delivery to seniors in need; • San Diego Food Bank which delivers weekly backpack with food to children who are at risk of experiencing hunger through the weekend. • South Bay Community Services (SBCS) is made up of three distinct departments (Youth and Family Services, Children Services, and Family Wellness and Self Sufficiency). Their staff of over 250 serve more than 50,000 Consolidated Plan I P a g e 11 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 77 individuals and families annually in South San Diego County. South Bay Community Services was awarded a $30 Million Promise Neighborhood Grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Chula Vista Promise Neighborhood brings together a collaboration of partners focused on family, education, health and community to support academic excellence and college bound aspirations for children in the Castle Park community of Chula Vista. For more information on this program please visit the following website at http: / /cvpromise.org /. Other Collaborating Agencies The Housing Authority of the County of San Diego ( HACSD) serves as the City's public housing agency. The City of Chula Vista does not operate its own public housing agency. The HACSD operates the Section 8 rental assistance program and owns 4 public housing projects that are rent - restricted in Chula Vista. Other coalitions include: CDBG Coordinators Group; HOME Consortium; Regional Continuum of Care Council, Mortgage Credit Counselors, and San Diego Housing Federation, made up of affordable housing organizations and lenders that sponsor programs and activities in partnership with the County and cities in the region. Describe coordination with the Continuum of Care and efforts to address the needs of homeless persons (particularly chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans, and unaccompanied youth) and persons at risk of homelessness The City of Chula Vista is an active member of the San Diego Regional Continuum of Care Council (RCCC) which is a large cooperative community group consisting of representatives of the 18 cities within San Diego County, non- profit homeless service providers and other interested parties. The RCCC meets on a monthly basis to identify gaps in homeless services, establish funding priorities, and to pursue an overall systemic approach to addressing homelessness. The RCCC makes recommendations for allocation of funds available under the Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG) Program. The representatives seek ways to improve collaboration and share scarce resources. The consensus approach from service providers is to emphasize prevention of homelessness first, then transitional housing and support services for individuals and families, and finally support for chronically homeless individuals. Describe consultation with the Continuum(s) of Care that serves the jurisdiction's area in determining how to allocate ESG funds, develop performance standards and evaluate outcomes, and develop funding, policies and procedures for the administration of HMIS The RCCC directly participates with jurisdictions that are directly funded by HUD ESG, and with the California State Department of Housing and Community Development for the areas in the region that are eligible for State ESG funds, and with non - entitled areas that prepare Consolidated Plans. In each case, the RCCC consults with the jurisdiction to develop cooperative plans and strategies that leverage ESG and other resources to provide emergency shelter, prevention, and rapid re- housing services. The RCCC assists the ESG entitlement areas (ESG Area) in coordinating the prioritization and use of funds. This coordination includes each ESG area covered by the State of California and the ESG Areas in the San Diego region. The RCCC, as the CoC entity, is responsible for assisting with the evaluation of ESG project performance. In cooperation with RCCC, the ESG Area determines, based on the amount of funding received and the need of the client, the level of assistance and the duration of assistance that a household can receive. Consolidated Plan I P a g e 12 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 78 The RCCC participates in setting local priorities, reviewing and rating proposals, certifying need, and annual review of ESG programs. The RCCC has prepared an ESG Guide that includes information about the responsibilities of the CoC and ESG area, HUD regulations, cross - jurisdiction strategies, and policy statements. Because the Guide is updated at least annually, the most recent Guide is incorporated in its entirety in the Governance Charter by reference here. The general goal of ESG is to assist families and individuals out of homelessness by providing financial support for rental assistance, payment of utilities, transportation services and other essential services deemed eligible by HUD and necessary for the continued housing of a home lessor at risk of becoming homeless person, and /or families. ESG can be used to fund local homeless emergency shelter operations or physical rehabilitation of certain properties used for serving homeless persons. To this end, the ESG entitlement areas and the RCCC have established the following cross - jurisdictional strategies for use of the ESG funds in ways that: A. Further the accomplishment of actions identified in the Consolidated Plan of each jurisdiction. B. Foster greater access to permanent housing, especially helping people access housing that is affordable at 30 %areamedian income. C. Leverage existing resources to achieve the match and case management requirements and to avoid duplication of services. D. Coordinate across jurisdictions for development of standardized eligibility and assessment standards and by convening semiannual regional planning meetings. E. Support federal and local goals for priority populations, including but not limited to veterans, persons with disabilities, families and others. F. Allow for variations in ESG entitlement programs that respond to the needs and resources of the individual jurisdictions. G. Comply with eligibility and verification requirements and locally established standards (HMIS, housing status, habitability standards, homeless definitions, etc.). H. Allows each program to take responsibility for program administration including compliance with public notice requirements and timely reporting. I. Encourages all subrecipients to participate in collaborative assessment, coordinated entry, data management, and reporting systems established by the RCCC in accordance with HEARTH regulations. J. Supports timely and accurate data collection and reporting through contractual obligations with subrecipients, and through establishing common standards for vendor relationships with the HMIS Lead. The RCCC plan for ESG assistance recognizes the multiple ESG Areas contained in the San Diego Region. The RCCC works to avoid a duplication of services to ensure subrecipients do not receive multiple grants for the same services in a single service area. Sub recipients serving multiple areas may receive ESG support from the corresponding ESG Area to serve eligible clients from that service area. ESG subrecipients are responsible for assuring the provision of matching resources. The RCCC encourages subrecipients to leverage additional resources for effective operation of ESG programs. The RCCC consults with ESG Areas and sub recipients to coordinate plans for effective use of funds. HUD CoC Program- funded organizations are required to report the sources of match and leverage funds annually. These resources are verified through an annual review of agency Independent Audit as conducted in accordance with HUD regulations. Consolidated Plan I P a g e 13 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 79 2.

The City is located in the southern portion of San Diego County, approximately 7 miles from downtown San Diego. The City is bounded by the cities of National City (to the north) and San Diego (to the south). The City also located within District 2 of the County of San Diego. Regional access is provided by Interstates 5 & 805, north to south, and Highway 54 east /west. In the eastern part of the City, toll road access via Highway -125 links the Highway 905 to Highway 54, both of which provide north /south access. Chula Vista is also home to one community college educational facility (Southwestern Community College) and several vocational schools. In September 2014, the City initiated the Needs Assessment with a web -blast issued to recipients who had asked to receive notifications about CDBG applications, Home Investment Partnership Act, and Emergency Solutions Grant. This electronic communication solicited their input, invited them to the series of public meetings, and requested that they complete the surveys. The City of Chula Vista received data from 2 -1 -1 San Diego that details the types of calls they receive from persons seeking access to an array of services. The callers are seeking services to help build and sustain healthy lives. The data provided by 2 -1 -1 provides an ongoing needs assessment of the City's low and moderate income community. Every day, 2 -1 -1 San Diego connects residents throughout San Diego County to services that help improve the lives of those that they serve. 2 -1 -1 answered more than 111,000 calls in the first half of fiscal year 2013 -2014 from clients in San Diego County, including 7,359 calls from City of Chula Vista residents. The primary needs of Chula Vista callers were for "Basic Needs." This category includes Food, Housing /Shelter, Material Goods, Transportation and Utility Assistance. In the first half of fiscal year 2013/14, 41% of all calls from Chula Vista residents were for Basic Needs resources; 16% for income support and employment; 12% for health care, and 10% for organizational /community /international services. The majority of 2 -1 -1 callers have a need that is related to financial difficulty; whether their need is housing, food, or healthcare, all of these have a financial basis. 2 -1 -1's database system identifies these needs more specifically in order to give a better idea of what type of need it truly is, rather than simply "financial ". In the time period July 1, 2013 to December 31, 2013, 43% of the residents were seeking housing /shelter, followed by 26% requesting utility assistance. The majority of the callers were referred to the County of San Diego's Health and Human Services Agency, MAAC, South Bay Community Services, Covered California, San Diego Food Bank, Salvation Army, Legal Aid Society of San Diego, Family Health Centers of San Diego, and San Diego Gas and Electric. The demographic of callers from the City of Chula Vista to 2 -1 -1 San Diego are the following: The average caller is a Hispanic (63 %) or Caucasian (33 %) and female (76 %) The majority of callers earn less than $15,900 in annual income (80 %) and are considered "Extremely Low" income earners. These demographics show that the City of Chula Vista's poorest residents are calling 2 -1 -1 for assistance. Consolidated Plan I P a g e 18 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 84 The City of Chula Vista conducted a needs assessment for this ConPlan period. See Section ES -05, question 4 for the summary of the needs assessment process. Survey respondents have rated the following "needs" as the highest priorities for the community: 1. Public infrastructure 2. Public services 3. Community Facilities 4. Economic Development Each year, the public service requests exceed the amount of available funding. The City has approved the following funding methodology that consists of a three -tier approach, classifying each of the public services activities in the following three categories: • Tier I: Basic /Essential Needs (Food, Housing, Emergency Services) • Tier II: Special Needs (At -Risk Youth, Family Violence, Special Needs /Disabled) • Tier III: Other (Transportation Services, Case Management, Preventative Health Care Services, Recreation (non - disabled, non - emergency services) This ensures that funding serves at risk populations prior to serving the general public services. General public services are identified in Tier III. As required by HUD, the identified needs and priorities will be used to develop the ConPlan priorities. The ConPlan priorities identified will guide the allocation of funds in each of the five Annual Action Plans associated with the new ConPlan. Given the limited amount of CDBG funds allocated to the City of Chula Vista, the reduction of HOME funds, and the loss of State Redevelopment Agency funds, not all of the identified needs and priorities will be funded. Several of the identified needs are funded by other government agencies, e.g., health services by the County of San Diego, State of California Department of Housing and Community Development competitive and non - competitive grants, and other transportation service subsidies from the federal government. It is necessary to include all priorities that may be funded during this ConPlan period. If a priority is not listed in the ConPlan, it may not be funded during the five year ConPlan period without a substantial amendment to the ConPlan. As a result of the needs assessment and other federal requirements, the City plans to include the following priorities for possible funding during the next five -year ConPlan period: • Public Infrastructure ➢ Capital Improvement Projects ➢ Public Facilities improvements and Infrastructure ➢ Americans with Disabilities Improvements • Decent Housing ➢ Development of Affordable Rental Housing (new construction or acquisition /rehab) ➢ Tenant Based Rental Assistance • Housing Programs ➢ Fair Housing Services, Studies and Testing ➢ Residential Rehabilitation Loans ➢ First -Time Homebuyer Assistance ➢ Energy Efficiency programs Consolidated Plan I P a g e 19 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 85 • Community /Neighborhood Services ➢ Public Services (subject to 15% funding cap) ➢ Economic Development ➢ Housing Services Summary of Housing Needs The U.S. Census Bureau defines a household as all of the people who occupy a housing unit. A household is different than a housing unit, as a housing unit is a house, an apartment, a mobile home, a group of rooms, or a single room occupied(or if vacant, intended for occupancy) as separate living quarters. A household consists of all the people who occupy a housing unit. As defined by HUD in the Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS) data, housing problems include: • Units with physical defects (lacking complete kitchen or bathroom); • Overcrowded conditions (housing units with more than one person per room); • Housing cost burden, including utilities, exceeding 30 percent of gross income; and • Severe housing cost burden, including utilities, exceeding 50 percent of gross income. Overall, the City has extensive needs for affordable housing. According to the Housing Authority of the County of San Diego, there are 9,794 Chula Vista residents on the Housing Choice Voucher Program (Section 8) waiting list. Chula Vista renters experience a housing issue, as referenced in the Housing Needs Summary Tables. This includes the number of Chula Vista households experiencing 1 or more housing problems such as inadequate housing, overcrowding, cost burden of 50 percent, or cost burden of 30 percent, compared to only 35 percent of owner - households. Among all households (incomes up to 100 percent AMI), Hispanic households were the most likely to experience a housing problem. Of the housing problems described above, the most common in Chula Vista is housing cost burden. The cost burden issue was affirmed by comments received during the Community Meetings. The prevalence of overcrowding in the City varies by tenure, income level and household type. This may indicate that multiple families need to pool their resources in order to afford housing in Chula Vista. Age and condition of the housing stock also present housing issues to low and moderate income households. W it h 70 percent of the housing stock over 30 years old (built before 1980), and approximately 58.7 percent is owner - occupied housing and 41.3 percent of renter - occupied housing, there is significant potential that units are in need of rehabilitation. Many low and moderate income households in Chula Vista, particularly seniors and the disabled with fixed and limited income, are unable to afford the needed repairs for their homes. In addition to the housing needs discussed above, the City of Chula Vista also has a number of infrastructure needs. Many of the City's public facilities, streets and sidewalks are in need of improvements, renovations and accessibility related modifications. These projects are necessary in order to ensure that critical services and facilities within the City remain safe and accessible to all residents of the community. Consolidated Plan I P a g e 20 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 86 To further dissect the housing problems, the following tables provide additional details: • Table 6 represents the number of households by income level and type of household (small family, large family, senior households, and families with a child under the age of 6. • Table 7 presents the number of households with one or more housing problems (inadequate housing, overcrowding, cost burden of 50 percent, or cost burden of 30 percent) by income and tenure. • Table 8 summarizes the number of households with more than one or more severe housing problems by income and tenure. Severe housing problems are: inadequate housing; severe overcrowding (1.51 persons or more per room); and housing cost burden of 50 percent. • Table 9 isolates those households with housing cost burden of over 30 percent (inclusive of those with cost burden of over 50 percent) by income and tenure. • Table 10 isolates those households with cost burden of over 50 percent. • Table 11 presents overcrowding by household type. In 2010, there were 73,633 households in the City, up from 57,626 in 2000 (a 28 percent increase). The median household income in 2010 was $65,526, up from $44,861 (a 46 percent increase). Table 6.

The intent of the data is to show general proportions of household need, not exact numbers. Describe the number and type of single person households in need of housing assistance. The U.S. Census Bureau defines a household as all of the people who occupy a housing unit. A household is different than a housing unit. A housing unit is a house, an apartment, a mobile home, a group of rooms, or a single room occupied (or if vacant, intended for occupancy) as separate living quarters. A household consists of all the people who occupy a housing unit. In 2010, there were 73,633 households in the City, up from 57,626 in 2000. HUD defines a household as containing one or more people. All persons occupying a housing unit constitute a household. A householder is one of the people who owns or rents the residence. Two types of households are defined by HUD, family and nonfamily. A family household has at least two members related by birth, marriage, or adoption, one of whom is the householder. A nonfamily household can be either a person living alone or a householder who shares the housing unit only with nonrelatives —for example, boarders or roommates. The nonrelatives of the householder may be related to each other. According to the 2010 Census, 40,465 households in Chula Vista were single - family households (see Table 6 Total Households Table). Housing Choice Voucher Program The Housing Authority of the County of San Diego Housing Choice Voucher Program (formerly known as Section 8) serves the City of Chula Vista and provides rent subsidies for very low- income households. The Housing Choice Voucher Program provides rental subsidies to very low- income persons that spend more than 30 percent of their gross income on housing costs. As of December 2014, the Housing Authority provided Housing Choice Voucher rental assistance to 1115 elderly, 2,380 small family, and 394 large family (5 or more in the household). The Housing Authority of the County of San Diego has an extensive waiting list. The wait for rental assistance is several years, averaging about 10 years. There are over 9,794 Chula Vista residents waiting for Section 8 rental assistance. Homeless According to Regional Task Force on the Homeless (RTFH) We All Count (Point in Time Count 2014), in Chula Vista, there were 32 persons living in an Emergency Shelter, 0 living in a Safe Haven, and 131 in Transitional Housing. The total amount of persons sheltered was 163. A total of 342 were listed as unsheltered. Of this amount, 97 were individuals, 103 were identified as living in their car /truck /RV /Van, and 35 persons were identified as living in Hand Built Structures /Tents. The RTFH conduct individual surveys of clients to identify how many persons are living in on streets are veterans, the reason for homelessness, whether they have a source of income. Many of the persons surveyed stated the downturn in the economy as a reason for homelessness. Estimate the number and type of families in need of housing assistance who are disabled or victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault and stalking. The City of Chula Vista defers to Census Data information to estimate the number of families in need of housing assistance. A review of Census Data and HUD's datasets, indicates this data is not readily available. In researching other databases and non - profit organizations calls to serves, there were 1,163 calls for domestic violence assistance in Chula Vista (see Table 12 below). Consolidated Plan I P a g e 25 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 91 Table 13. Domestic Violence Calls for Assistance, by City: 1998 to 2012 z,coo 2,500 2,000 iu .v 1,500 2 1,000 500 d # .. a. ', i s . a Definition: Number of domestic violence calls for assistance from residents of all ages, by city. Data Source: As cited on kidsdata.orq, California Dept. of Justice, Criminal Justice Statistics Center, Domestic Violence - Related Calls for Assistance Database (1998 -2009) and California Criminal Justice Profiles, 2010, 2011, and 2012. Accessed at http: / /oag.ca.gov/ crime /cjsc /criminal - justice - profiles (Jun. 2013). The City also consulted with 2 -1 -1 San Diego for data on domestic violence needs. From the time period July 2014 to March 2015, 429 calls were received by 2 -1 -1 operators (callers) who were experiencing a domestic violence situation with 427 domestic violence needs identified from transitional housing needs. The greatest needs were those seeking Transitional Housing /Shelter (315) to those seeking Domestic Violence shelters (60). Hence, the estimated need is difficult to gauge since many victims may seek assistance from faith based institutions, friends and family, or seek services from non - profit organizations. In addition, not all victims fall into the income levels to meet HUD eligibility criteria to access the following programs: • ESG funds (must be below 30% AMI), • Section HCV and Public Housing (below 50% AM I) • Other affordable housing programs with income restrictions usually below 60% AMI. What are the most common housing problems? The cost of housing in a community is directly correlated to the number of housing problems and affordability issues. High housing costs can price low- income families out of the market, cause extreme cost burdens, or force households into over - crowded or substandard conditions. According to the National Association of Home Builders' (NAHB) Housing Opportunity Index (HOI), which tracks the ability of households to afford a home, the San Diego - Carlsbad -San Marcos Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) was Consolidated Plan I P a g e 26 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 92 the 10th least affordable metropolitan area in the U.S. in the fourth quarter of last year with just 25 percent of households able to afford a median priced home. The median priced home in San Diego County (in the fourth quarter of last year) is $430,000. This is 59% higher than the recession -era low in 2009. In addition, the median household income for the San Diego - Carlsbad- Marcos (MSA) is approximately $73,000. The median price of homes sold was the 14th highest in the nation, but San Diego's median household income ranked 54tH The most common housing problems are: • A housing cost burden greater than 30% of income; • A housing cost burden greater than 50% of income; • Overcrowding; • Median Household income remains flat and homes prices have steadily increased; and • Rising housing prices are straining household budgets. HUD defines a household that spends more than 30 percent of gross annual income on housing as experiencing a housing "cost burden." Households spending more than 50 percent are considered to be "severely cost - burdened." Housing cost burdens occur when housing costs increase faster than household income. When a household spends more than 30 percent of its income on housing costs, it has less disposable income for other necessities such as health care. In the event of unexpected circumstances, such as loss of employment and health problems, lower - income households with a severe housing cost burden are more likely to become homeless. Homeowners with a housing cost burden have the option of selling the homes and become renters. Renters, on the other hand, are vulnerable and subject to constant changes in the housing market. As housing costs rise, the amount of available income available for car purchases, entertainment, and other purchases has a stain on the area economy. IOVERCROWDING In response to a mismatch between household income and housing costs in a community, some households may not be able to buy or rent housing that provides a reasonable level of privacy and space. Residents may accept smaller -sized housing or double up with other families to afford the housing costs. The federal government defines overcrowding as a situation where a household has more members than habitable rooms in a unit. An overcrowded household is defined as one with more than one person per room, excluding bathrooms, kitchens, hallways, and porches. Severely overcrowded households are households with more than 1.5 persons per room. Overcrowding contributes to increases in traffic within a neighborhood, accelerates deterioration of homes and infrastructure, can overburden utilities and services such as sewers, and results in a shortage of on -site parking. The Housing Problems Table displays the prevalence of overcrowding in Chula Vista. As indicated by the 2006 -2010 CHAS, 895 households (renters) in Chula Vista experienced severe overcrowding, with greater than 1.51 people per room. 2265 households (renters) experienced overcrowding (with 1.01 -1.05) people per room. Chula Vista homeowners experience less over - crowding conditions. The extent of overcrowding varies significantly by income, type, and size of household. Generally, very low- and low- income households and large families are disproportionately affected by overcrowding. However, cultural differences also contribute to overcrowding conditions since some cultures tend to have larger household sizes. Overcrowding is typically more prevalent among renters than among owners. Consolidated Plan I P a g e 27 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 93 COST BURDEN State and federal standards specify that households spending more than 30 percent of gross annual income on housing experience a housing cost burden. Federal and state agencies use overpayment indicators to determine the extent and level of funding and support that should be allocated to a community. Housing cost burdens occur when housing costs increase faster than household income. When a household spends more than 30 percent of its income on housing costs, it has less disposable income for other necessities such as health care. In the event of unexpected circumstances such as loss of employment and health problems, lower- income households with a burdensome housing cost are more likely to become homeless. Homeowners with a housing cost burden have the option of selling the homes and become renters. Renters, on the other hand, are vulnerable and subject to constant changes in the housing market. Are any populations /household types more affected than others by these problems? Populations The 2011 American Community Survey (ACS) data (2009 -2011) show that Hispanic workers living in Chula Vista had lower median earnings than Asians and Whites and the population as a whole. If person has lower median earnings they are more likely to experience a cost burden greater than 30% - 50% of income. Populations in the San Diego County region most affected by housing problems are low- income households, single parent households, seniors; disabled persons - particularly those who suffer from mental illness; persons with alcohol or substance abuse issues, and victims of domestic violence. Household Types Age The estimate average age of residents in Chula Vista is 34.3 years. According to the 2010 Census, a majority (59 percent) of the City's population were between the ages of 21 to 64. Children and teens aged 0 -20 years compromised 31 percent of the population, and seniors age 65 and over, represented 10 percent of the City's population. Special Needs Populations In addition to the age of the population, another important characteristic of the population are those with special needs, including individuals with physical, emotional, or psychological disabilities. The U.S. Census reports that 6 percent of Chula Vista's population had a disability. Household Size The City's average household size is increasing. In 2010, Chula Vista's average household size was 3.21 persons per household, increasing from 2.99 persons per household in 2000. In comparison, San Diego County as a whole had an estimated household size of 2.75 in 2010. With growing household sizes and overcrowding experienced by many Chula Vista residents, where feasible given the limited resources available, large household sizes those with 3 or more persons per household are in need of some type of affordable housing. The lack of units with a large number of bedrooms, especially for rental housing limits housing choices for large families and can contribute to overcrowding. Consolidated Plan I P a g e 28 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 94 Describe the characteristics and needs of Low - income individuals and families with children (especially extremely low- income) who are currently housed but are at imminent risk of either residing in shelters or becoming unsheltered 91.205(c)191.305(c)). Also discuss the needs of formerly homeless families and individuals who are receiving rapid re- housing assistance and are nearing the termination of that assistance. Based on data compiled by the RTFH's September 2014 San Diego Homeless Profile, at risk groups includes the following: • Those with severe mental health issues (36 percent of homeless adults). • Those with high level of substance abuse issues (19 percent of homeless adults). • Those with HIV /AIDS (17 percent of homeless adults). • Victims of domestic violence (22 percent of homeless adults). • Military Veterans (20 percent of homeless adults). • Families with at least one child (24 percent of homeless adults). • Older adults (26 percent of unsheltered homeless adults were 55years of age or older). • Race (16 percent of unsheltered homeless adults were African - American although 6 percent of the region's population is African - American). If a jurisdiction provides estimates of the at -risk population(s), it should also include a description of the operational definition of the at -risk group and the methodology used to generate the estimates: The City of Chula Vista does not have data on the estimated number of at -risk populations and relies on other data sources such the Homeless Point in Time Count the 2014 San Diego Regional Homeless Profile(s) published by the Regional Task Force on the Homeless. Also discuss the needs of formerly homeless families and individuals who are receiving rapid re- housing assistance and are nearing the termination of that assistance. The City uses its Emergency Shelter Grant funds for Emergency Shelters and Homeless Prevention and Rapid Re- Housing. However, each of these programs has program limits. The needs of those reaching the end of their shelter stay, homeless prevention /rapid re- housing assistance vary from household to household depending on a number of factors, including whether they continue to experience characteristics outlined above for populations at- risk of homelessness. If these issues continue, then their needs mirror the needs of at -risk populations as outlined above. According to the CoC, follow -up case management services have limited resources. However, rapid re- housing clients are encouraged to continue to maintain contact with CoC providers who offer other supports that may be needed to maintain stable independent housing, such as employment or education services, budgeting and tax preparation, food and other tangible needs or mainstream supports. The City of Chula Vista Rapid Re- Housing program allows funding to assist approximately 7 households. The program also provides case managers assigned to each client to assist them with applying for mainstream resources such as affordable housing, Housing Choice Voucher Program, Tenant Based Rental Assistance, affordable health care, food stamps, and other resources to ensure the clients are transitioned into permanent Consolidated Plan I P a g e 29 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 95 housing. A few of these clients also receive extensive case management services by the County of San Diego's behavioral health provider Telecare. The Cooperation for Supportive Housing provides technical assistance to the County to ensure that the program between all parties is successful to ensure clients remain healthy and do not return to homelessness. Since, the Rapid Re- Housing partnership is relatively new, the City does not have any historical data at this time. The RCCC supports continued to support this Rapid Re- Housing Housing First Model. One of the impediments is that ESG Rapid Re- Housing only allows clients to be assisted for two years. Hence, if clients need additional time, the City is unable to extend their assistance. The City and other non - profits are aware of this issue and continue to seek other funding source to continue the assistance until the clients and their respective case manager feel the clients can live independently without extensive case management and have the resources to pay their monthly housing costs. The City is pursing other funding sources such as HOME TBRA or asking the County of San Diego to consider setting up a priority on the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher program for these clients. However, since the County administers the Section 8 HCV program in Chula Vista it is difficult to predict if Housing First Model clients, who successfully complete their 2 years in ESG Rapid Re- Housing program, will be able to transition to an independent unit without the need for some subsidy. Specify particular housing characteristics that have been linked with instability and an increased risk of homelessness Throughout the country and the San Diego region, homelessness has increased. The RCCC has no reliable numerical estimates of at -risk groups. However, the City continues to use its ESG funding to assist those clients who are experiencing homelessness. One of the specific characteristics is mental health illness. The City continued to use the ESG program regulations and guidance to determine who is a good fit for the program and uses the following guidelines: Assist families and individuals who demonstrate: 1. An income below 30 percent of median income for the geographic area; and, 2. Insufficient resources immediately available to attain housing stability. The Regional Task Force on the Homeless (Task Force) is San Diego County's leading resource for information on issues of homelessness. Established in 1985, the Task Force promotes a regional approach as the best solution to ending homelessness in San Diego County. The Task Force is a public /private effort to build a base of understanding about the multiple causes and conditions of homelessness. Factors contributing to the rise in homelessness include: • Lack of housing affordable to low- and moderate - income persons • Increases in the number of persons whose incomes fall below the poverty level • Reductions in public subsidies to the poor • High unemployment • High rates of home foreclosures • The de- institutionalization of the mentally ill The City evaluates the survey result of the Point of Time Count to best earmark its use of its limited resources.

Introduction: According to HUD, a "disproportionate need" exists when any group has a housing need that is 10% or higher than the jurisdiction as a whole. A household is considered having a cost burden when they are paying more than 30% of their income on housing costs, which includes utilities. This is important because the goal is to ensure equal housing opportunities for all. This goal is not achieved when there is a disproportionate need. Housing Cost Burden Table 22.

The intent of the data is to show general proportions of household need, not exact numbers. Discussion: Consolidated Plan I P a g e 36 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 102 Overall, 40.41 percent of Hispanic households and 40.31 percent white Chula Vista households (see Table 21) are paying less than 30% of their income towards housing costs. 49% of Chula Vista Hispanic households had a housing cost burden (spent more than 30 percent of gross household income on housing), followed by white households at 28.58 %, and Asian households paying 13.90 %. About 60.64 percent of Hispanic households are experienced a severe housing cost burden (spent more than 50 percent of gross household income on housing). 21.82 percent of white households experience a severe cost burden. Hispanics were the most likely group to experience a housing cost burden than any other group. Are there any Income categories in which a racial or ethnic group has disproportionately greater need than the needs of that income category as a whole? As previously stated, Hispanic households experience a disproportionately greater need than the needs of almost every income category as a whole. If they have needs not identified above, what are those needs? The need would be to narrow the gaps that leave families with children, people with disabilities, and people of different races, colors, and national origins with more severe housing problems, aka., disproportionate housing needs. Are any of those racial or ethnic groups located in specific areas or neighborhoods in your community? Due to the fact that Hispanic households experience a disproportionately greater need than the needs of almost every income category as a whole, these households tend to be located in the City's CDBG qualifying tracts.

Consolidated Plan 1 40 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 106 In FY2012- 13, the HACSD was awarded $243,000 ROSS Service Coordinator grant. The grant funds a service coordinator to coordinate supportive services and other activities designed to help and encourage the involvement of public housing residents in attaining economic and housing self - sufficiency. The coordinator provides services to residents of the HACSD's 117 rent - restricted public housing units. Services provided, thus far, include assistance in establishing a food delivery program to the senior /disabled complex, disaster preparedness plans, vials of life to record pertinent medical information ,resume' building workshops, access to career fairs, community resource guides, resources to provide low cost eyeglasses and assistance with the disability benefits application process. Services were provided to 126 residents in FY2013 -14. As discussed in the PHA plan, public housing residents are encouraged to join the Resident Advisory Board (RAB), which meets several times a year. In FY2013 -2014, public housing and /or HCV program participants attended the October 2013 RAB meeting and nine attended the December 2013 meeting. In FY2014 -15, according to the draft 2015 PHA Plan annual update, RAB meetings were held in October and December 2014 with a combined total of 39 attendees. RAB meeting topics included the public housing scholarship program, the public housing budget, 2015 Consolidated Plan overview, fair housing, security deposit and homeless assistance, communication barriers for those with limited English proficiency, family self- sufficiency, the ROSS grant, efforts to end homelessness, and the new on -line application portal. Annually, residents are encouraged to attend a Capital Funding and Resident Services meeting. The November 2013 meeting discussed the many services available to residents including: transportation to medical appointments and stores, transportation to domestic violence groups, senior /disabled transportation to special events on weekends, emergency food assistance, employment services, fair housing services, clothing assistance as well as many other services. The residents were informed about proposed capital improvement activities, educated on the benefits of the joining the ROSS program, asked for input on needed capital improvements, and encouraged to conserve water and make energy efficiency a priority. In November2014, according to the draft 2015 PHA Plan, discussion topics included the public housing Real Estate Assessment Center(REAC) score of 96 percent, coordinating community services to provide residents with needed resources, the needs of residents, and the monthly news- letter.

Established in 1985, the Task Force promotes a regional approach as the best solution to ending homelessness in San Diego County. The Task Force is a public /private effort to build a base of understanding about the multiple causes and conditions of homelessness. According to the Task Force, the San Diego region's homeless population can be divided into two general groups: 1) urban homeless and 2) rural homeless, including farm workers and day laborers who live in the hillsides, canyons, and fields of the northern regions of the county. It is important to recognize that homeless individuals may fall into more than one category (e.g., a homeless individual may be a veteran and a substance abuser), making it difficult to accurately quantify and categorize the homeless. The homeless population is very difficult to quantify. Census information on homeless populations is often unreliable due to the difficulty of efficiently counting a population without permanent residences. Given this impediment, local estimates of the homeless and anecdotal information are often where population numbers of the homeless come from. The Task Force produces estimates that are obtained using observations of homeless service providers; estimates from local officials; reports from local surveys and studies; utilization rates of homeless facilities, services, and meal programs; and estimated counts of persons observed at known location. The Regional Task Force on the Homeless conducted a Point -In -Time (PIT) count in 2014 which resulted in an estimate of 8,506 individuals who are homeless in the San Diego region (both sheltered and living on the street). In Chula Vista, 342 homeless persons were identified living on the streets during the 2014PIT count. Among neighboring cities, the City of Imperial Beach(48) had the lowest homeless count, while City of San Diego and National City (284) had the highest homeless counts. In addition to the homeless population living in shelters or on the streets, many residents —due to high housing cost, economic hardships, or physical limitations— live on the brink of homelessness yet are housed temporarily through friends or families. Experts estimate that 2 to 3 families are on the verge of homelessness for every family staying in a homeless shelter. The "at- risk" population is comprised of families and individuals living in poverty, who, upon loss of employment or other emergency requiring financial reserves, would lose their housing and become homeless. These families are generally experiencing a housing cost burden, paying more than 30 percent of their income for housing. According to the 2009 -2013 American Community Survey estimates, 24.20 percent of the City's renters earn less than $19,999 per year and may fall under the extremely low- income renter - households category (0 -30% AMI). Approximately 57 percent of the City's residents are very low or low income renters earning between $20,000 to $74,999). Estimated earnings for households living in owner occupied units is 13.80 percent fall below $0 to $19,999 per year, and 42.70 percent fall under the $20,000 to $74,999 range. 38.9 percent of owner occupied units are paying over $2,000 or more in monthly housing costs. 15.9 percent of renters are paying over $2,000 or more in housing costs. A large majority of renters are paying more than 30% of their income in rent. Residents earning less than $49,999 have the highest percentage of paying over 30% of their income in rent. These households are considered most vulnerable and at risk of becoming homeless. Consolidated Plan 1 42 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 108 If data is not available for the categories "number of persons becoming and exiting homelessness each year," and "number of days that persons experience homelessness," describe these categories for each homeless population type (including chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth): Response: The Regional Task Force on the Homeless collects data using HMIS to track the number of persons becoming and existing homelessness each year. However, due to the transient nature of this population moving from one place to another, it is difficult to gauge how many new homeless persons are entering our region that may be receiving services from a neighboring jurisdiction. The City of Chula Vista continues to work closely with the Continuum of Care to develop a Coordinated Assessment approach to providing real time data of how many homeless persons are entering homeless or who have successfully transitioned into permanent housing.

However, it is also estimated that approximately 15% (309) of persons in families were without any shelter on the Point in Time (PIT) date. The number of homeless veterans in San Diego County is 790 sheltered and 517 unsheltered for a total of 1307.

Discussion: The Regional Task Force on the Homeless conducted a Point -In -Time (PIT) count in 2014 which resulted in an estimate of 8,506 individuals who are homeless in the San Diego region (both sheltered and living on the street). This represents a regional decrease of 4.2% since the PIT count in 2013 (8879 total homeless in the San Diego Region. In Chula Vista, 342 homeless persons were identified living on the streets during the 2014 PIT count and 163 living in a shelter, for a total of 505 homeless persons. In the 2013 PIT, 194 were living in a shelter and 301 were unsheltered, for a total of 495. This represents a 2% increase in the number of homeless from last year. Among neighboring cities, Imperial Beach and Coronado had the lowest homeless count, while City of San Diego and National City had the highest homeless counts. A full copy of the 2014 San Diego Homeless Profile: Veterans and the general 2014 San Diego Regional Homeless Profile can be viewed at the Regional Task Force on the Homeless website: http: / /www.rtfhsd.org /publications/ Introduction: Certain households, because of their special characteristics and needs, may require special accommodations and may have difficulty finding housing due to special needs. Special needs groups may include the elderly, persons with disabilities, persons with HIV /AIDS, female- headed households, large households, and homeless persons and persons at -risk of homelessness. The following paragraphs generally summarize the nature and extent of housing and supportive service needs of special needs groups identified in the Consolidated Plan regulations. Describe the characteristics of special needs populations in your community: Seniors: According to 2010 Census data, an estimated 34 percent of households in the City had at least one individual who was 65 years of age or older. The majority of senior householders owned their homes (21.5 percent), while 12.8 percent were renters. Seniors may be considered a special needs group because of their typically limited incomes and need for health care and other supportive services. Persons with Disabilities: According to the 2009 -2013 American Community Survey (ACS) estimates, 8.7 percent of the City's population was affected by one or more disabilities (non - institutionalized population). Among persons living with disabilities in the City, ambulatory disabilities were most prevalent (26 percent for age 65 years and over, 3.1% for 18 -64, and 0.5% 5 to 17 years), followed by cognitive disabilities (11.6% age 65 years and over, 2.8% for 18 -64, and 2.2% age 5 to 17 percent). Persons with disabilities often have limited incomes, but extensive needs for a variety of services. Furthermore, as the majority of the City's housing stock was constructed prior to 1990 (before the passage of the American with Disabilities Act), accessible housing is also limited in supply. Consolidated Plan 1 46 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 112 Large Households: Large households are those with five or more members. According to the 2010 Census, approximately 38.5 percent of the households in Chula Vista were large households (4 or more). Large households may experience overcrowding or cost burden issues due to lack of affordable housing. Single- Parent Households: Single- parent households, particularly female- headed families with children, often require special consideration and assistance because of their greater need for affordable housing and accessible day care, health care, and other supportive services. Female- headed families with children are a particularly vulnerable group because they must balance the needs of their children with work responsibilities, often while earning limited incomes. As of 2010, an estimated 17.9 percent of Chula Vista households were headed by single parents; 7.7 percent of were headed by males, and 10.2 percent were headed by females. Victims of Domestic Violence: Many single women and women with children become homeless as the result of domestic violence. According to the 2012 PIT Count for the County, it is estimated that nearly 1,080 homeless adults were a victim of domestic violence at some point in the past, and an estimated 600 adult domestic violence victims were unsheltered on the night of Describe the characteristics of special needs populations in your community and state what the housing and supportive service needs of these populations are and how are these needs determined? Certain groups have more difficulty in finding decent, affordable housing due to their special circumstances. Special circumstances may be related to one's income earning potential, family characteristics, the presence of physical or mental disabilities, or age - related health issues. As a result, certain groups typically earn lower incomes and have higher rates of overpayment for housing, or they live in overcrowded residences. The special needs groups usually include the elderly, people with disabilities, single parents, large households, homeless people, farm workers, and students. Many of these groups overlap; for example, some veterans are homeless, but also fall into the elderly or disabled categories. The majority of these special needs groups would be assisted by an increase in affordable housing, especially housing located near transit stations. The 2013 -2020 Chula Vista Housing Element includes the central goal to assist persons with special needs in meeting their housing needs. The needs of specific population groups are addressed below: Many senior - headed households have special needs due to their relatively low incomes, disabilities or limitations, and dependency needs. Specifically, many people aged 62 years and older live alone and may have difficulty maintaining their homes, are usually retired and living on a limited income, and are more likely to have high health care costs and rely on public transportation, especially those with disabilities. The limited income of many elderly persons often makes it difficult for them to find affordable housing. In the San Diego region, the elderly spend a higher percentage of their income for food, housing, medical care, and personal care than non - elderly families. In 2010, there were 5,275 senior persons (65 years and over) living in Chula Vista. The housing needs of seniors (over 65 years of age) are diverse. Senior homeowners often have limited retirement income and /or increasing physical limitations, and could benefit from homeowner assistance. In addition to disabilities, seniors who rent housing have greater needs, in that rental assistance may be required to continue affording housing. The following affordable senior apartments are located in Chula Vista, most of which have long waiting lists (depending on affordability): Consolidated Plan 1 47 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 113 • Canterbury Court Senior Apartments; 336 C Street • Park Fifth Avenue: 364 Fifth Avenue • Town Center Manor Senior Housing (Public Housing): 464 F Street • Congregational Tower (Project Based Section 8): 288 F Street • Silvercrest Senior Apartments (Project Based Section 8): 636 Third Avenue • Seniors on Broadway 825 Broadway • Garden Villas (FKA Kiku Gardens) Senior Apartments (Project Based Section 8): 1260 Third Avenue • Oak Terrace Senior Apartments: 423 Church Avenue • Villa Serena Senior Apartments 1231 Medical Center Drive • Rolling Hills Gardens Senior Apartments: 2290 Mackenzie Creek Road Several programs address the non - housing needs of seniors in the City. • The Meals on Wheels of San Diego senior nutrition program brings meals to seniors. • Norman Park Senior Center(various services, Cool -Zone) • MAAC Project- Senior Food Program, Jacobs and Cushman San Diego Food Bank The Census Bureau's American Community Survey (ACS) identifies persons as having a disability as those who exhibit difficulty with specific functions and may, in the absence of accommodation, have a disability. According to the ACS, disability exists where this interaction results in limitations of activities and restrictions to full participation at school, at work, at home, or in the community. For example, disability may exist where a person is limited in his or her ability to work due to job discrimination against persons with specific health conditions; or, disability may exist where a child has difficulty learning because the school cannot accommodate the child's deafness. Both mentally and physically disabled residents face housing access and safety challenges. Disabled people, in most cases, are of limited incomes and often receive Social Security income only. As such, the majority of their monthly income is often devoted to housing costs. In addition, disabled persons may face difficulty finding accessible housing (housing that is made accessible to people with disabilities through the positioning of appliances and fixtures, the heights of installations and cabinets, layout of unit to facilitate wheelchair movement, etc.) because of the limited number of such units. The City works with a number of local agencies that provide housing and /or service to persons with special needs and their families including the City of Chula Vista's Recreation Department Therapeutics program. Every day, 2 -1 -1 San Diego connects residents throughout San Diego County to services that help improve the lives of those that they serve. 2 -1 -1 answered more than 111,000 calls in the first half of fiscal year 2013 -2014 from clients in San Diego County, including 7,359 calls from City of Chula Vista residents. The primary needs of Chula Vista callers were for "Basic Needs." This category includes Food, Housing /Shelter, Material Goods, Transportation and Utility Assistance. In the first half of fiscal year 2013/14, 41% of all calls from Chula Vista residents were for Basic Needs resources; 16% for income support and employment; 12% for health care, and 10% for organizational /community /international services. The majority of 2 -1 -1 callers have a need that is related to financial difficulty; whether their need is housing, food, or healthcare, all of these have a financial basis. 2 -1 -1's database system identifies these needs more specifically in order to give a better idea of what type of need it truly is, rather than simply "financial ". In the time period July 1, 2013 to December 31, 2013, 43% of the residents were seeking housing /shelter, followed by 26% requesting utility assistance. The majority of the callers were referred to the County of San Diego's Health and Human Services Agency, MAAC, South Consolidated Plan 1 48 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 114 Bay Community Services, Covered California, San Diego Food Bank, Salvation Army, Legal Aid Society of San Diego, Family Health Centers of San Diego, and San Diego Gas and Electric. The demographic of callers from the City of Chula Vista to 2 -1 -1 San Diego are the following: The average caller is a Hispanic (63 %) or Caucasian (33%), female (76%), and the majority of callers earn less than $15,900 in annual income (80 %) and are considered "Extremely Low" income earners. These demographics show that the City of Chula Vista's poorest residents are calling2 -1 -1 for assistance.

The following County website provides links to services and data from its 2009 San Diego County HIV /AIDS Plan Update. http: / /www.sandiegocounty.gov/ content /sdc /sdhcd /organizations /about hopwa.html Describe the jurisdiction's need for Public Facilities, Public Infrastructure and Public Improvements: The City of Chula Vista conducted a workshop on public infrastructure workshop on April 2, 2015. This assessment was a comprehensive inventory of City infrastructure for the purpose of estimating deferred replacement /rehabilitation costs and future replacement /rehabilitation costs for city facilities and infrastructure. A 2014 estimate of deferred maintenance (non CFD areas) is $80 million (Replacement of Drainage Facilities, CMP, Canyon /Channel Erosion, etc). It is also estimated that the City will have a total of $60 million in deferred maintenance of buildings and facilities (replacement of roofing, HVAC, plumbing, electrical) costs. How were these needs determined? The needs were determined through a thorough assessment of a backlog of deferred community needs assessment and consultations with other City divisions presented at the workshop on April 2, 2015. Describe the jurisdiction's need for Public Services and how were these needs determined: Given the City's diverse population and concentration of lower and moderate income population, the City has extensive need for a myriad of services. Service needs in the City include, but are not limited to, the following: • Youth services, especially services for at -risk youth ; • Anti -crime programs; • Childcare services and recreational activities; • Homeless (shelter) and homeless prevention services; • Emergency services; Consolidated Plan 1 49 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 115 • Fair housing and legal services; • Senior services, including case management and advocacy, and services for home- bound residents; • Services for special needs groups (i.e. early release ex- offenders, veterans, substance abusers, victims of domestic violence, disabled, mentally ill) • Employment services; • Health Services; • Food ; • Services for the disabled; • Coordination of services. How were these needs determined? Public service needs in the City were determined based on the following: • Comments received during the community and stakeholder outreach process; • Service records from the 2 -1 -1 San Diego; • Responses from the Housing and Community Development Needs Survey; • Regional Continuum of Care Council; and • Regional Task Force on the Homeless Point in Time Count. Housing Market Analysis Housing Market Analysis Overview: A community's housing stock is defined as the collection of all housing units located within the jurisdiction. The characteristics of the housing stock, including growth, type, age and condition, tenure, vacancy rates, housing costs, and affordability are important in determining the housing needs for the community. This section details the housing stock characteristics of Chula Vista to identify how well the current housing stock meets the needs of current and future City residents. Population Growth Table 34 shows that since 1990, the City's population growth has almost doubled. Chula Vista had the second highest population growth in the County from 2000 to 2010. The majority of neighboring jurisdictions of Imperial Beach and National City saw little population growth during 2000 -2010. Consolidated Plan 1 50 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 116 Table 32.

Among the various jurisdictions in the County, the City of San Marcos experienced the largest housing growth (close to 52 percent) followed by Chula Vista (37.6 percent) and Carlsbad (32.3 percent). Several jurisdictions within the Urban County experienced housing growth of less than 2 percent (Coronado, Del Mar, Imperial Beach, Lemon Grove, and Solana Beach). In the unincorporated areas, housing growth was slightly higher than countywide figures. SANDAG growth forecasts estimate that by 2020, the County's housing stock will increase by close to eight percent. The cities of Chula Vista, Escondido, and San Marcos are expected to see housing stock growth that in excess of eight percent (13.8 percent, 11.7 percent, and 15.8 percent, respectively). The Consolidated Plan 1 51 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 117 estimated population growth for the County is expected to outpace housing production by three percent. The inability to produce enough housing units to accommodate the increasing number of households reduces vacancy rates and drives up market prices, along with other issues such as overcrowding.

Single- family units are attached or detached dwelling units usually on individual lots of land. As shown in Table 33, approximately 52% of the housing units in the Chula Vista are single - family dwellings. As compared to region, the Chula Vista's is in line with the County average. Table 34.

Consolidated Plan I P a g . 53 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 119 HOUSING TENURE AND VACANCY Housing tenure describes the arrangement by which a household occupies a housing unit; that is, whether a housing unit is owner - occupied or renter - occupied. Tenure preferences are primarily related to household income, composition, and age of the resident. Communities need to have an adequate supply of units available both for rent and for sale in order to accommodate a range of households with varying incomes, family sizes, composition, life styles, etc. A person may face different housing issues in the rental housing market versus the for -sale housing market. Residential stability is also influenced by tenure with ownership housing resulting in a much lower turnover rate than rental housing. San Diego County has a higher proportion of owner - occupied housing (54.4 percent) than renter - occupied housing (45.6 percent). The ownership level fell by one percent between 2000 and 2010, but was still below the national level of 65.1 percent and slightly lower than the 56.0 percent State figure for housing ownership. Most cities in the County had more owner - occupied housing units than renter - occupied units. Exceptions include Coronado, Imperial Beach, El Cajon, La Mesa, National City, and San Diego. The tenure distribution in Coronado, Imperial Beach, and National City may be attributed to the large proportion of military families in those cities living off base due to the lack of, or demand for, housing and the close proximity of the cities to military bases. The large proportion of renters in El Cajon is partially explained by the large amount of multi - family housing in the City. Table 35.

Housing age can indicate general housing conditions within a community. Housing is subject to gradual deterioration over time. Deteriorating housing can depress neighboring property values, discourage reinvestment, and impact the quality of life in a neighborhood. State and federal housing programs typically consider the age of a community's housing stock when estimating rehabilitation needs. In general, most homes begin to require major repairs or have significant rehabilitation needs at 30 or 40 years of age. Furthermore, housing units constructed prior to 1979 are more likely to contain lead -based paint. The housing stock in San Diego region is older with a majority of the housing units (61 percent) built before 1979. According to the 2009 -2013 ACS data shown in Table 35, more than half of the County's housing stock is over 30 years of age in 2010 and close to 56 percent was over 50 years old. The highest percentages of pre -1980 housing units are generally found in the older, urbanized neighborhoods of the cities of La Mesa, Lemon Grove, El Cajon, San Diego, Coronado and National City and will most likely have the largest proportions of housing units potentially in need of rehabilitation. Home rehabilitation can be an obstacle for senior homeowners with fixed incomes and mobility issues. Please refer to the Table below for Chula Vista specific figures. Table 36.

High housing costs can price low- income families out of the market, cause extreme cost burdens, or force households into overcrowded or substandard conditions. According to a study conducted by the Center for Housing Policy, more than a third of working households in the San Diego MSA are paying more than half the income towards housing. As cost of living is consistently on the rise, housing affordability drops, and lower- income families are most acutely affected. The Center on Policy Initiatives noted that a single parent in the San Diego area making only the minimum wage of $9.75 per hour (as of January 1, 2015 in the City of San Diego) would have to earn more than twice the minimum wage in order to afford a place with two bedrooms. The California Housing Partnership (CHPC) estimates that median rents in San Diego County increased by 23 percent between 2000 and 2012, while the median income declined by seven percent, significantly driving up the percentage of income that households must spend on rent. Rents increase in response to demand and more renter households have entered the San Diego market since 2006, many because of displacement during the foreclosure crisis. Even as San Diego County's shortfall of affordable homes has become more acute, funding for affordable housing has dropped significantly. CHPC estimates that there has been a 78- percent decrease in state and federal funding for affordable homes in San Diego since 2008. Error!

Accessed January 15, 2015 OWNERSHIP HOUSING The median price for single - family homes sold in Chula Vista in January 2015 was $405,000. Prices are rising throughout Southern California mainly because the share of foreclosures, which are typically lower priced, has fallen significantly in the last year or so. 37 presents current foreclosure data by jurisdiction. Between 2012 and February 2015, less than one percent of the County's housing stock was in one of the various stages of foreclosure. Homes in foreclosure comprised a similar proportion of the housing stock (about 0.2 percent) in all of San Diego County's incorporated cities. The unincorporated areas of San Diego County also have a similar proportion of foreclosed homes.

Affordability covenants in Chula Vista include developments that hold federal subsidy contracts, received tax credits or mortgage revenue bonds, were created through the City's Balanced Community's Policy, and /or were financed by redevelopment funds or non - profit developers. Table 41 presents the inventory of affordable housing developments in Chula Vista. As of December 31, 2014, 27 affordable housing developments were located in Chula Vista, providing approximately 2,176 affordable units to lower- income households (senior and non - senior). Additional units are available but they are set aside for special needs populations (former foster youth, victims of domestic violence, and other special needs). These units are not included in the list below.

The City requires that the housing be owner occupied and the residents qualified as low income residents when prior to occupancy. A recorded deed restriction serves as an affordability covenant that restricts the income level of a person who initially occupies the property, and ensures the property will remain available for low- to moderate- income persons through the affordability period. A county wide resource directory is available at the following web -link: http: / /www.sandiegocounty.gov /sdhcd /docs /housing resource.pdf Provide an assessment of units expected to be lost from the affordable housing inventory for any reason, such as expiration of Section 8 contracts. A large portion of the affordable housing stock was created via the City's Balanced Communities Policy. These properties were constructed from the late 1990s to the present. A handful of projects were also created in the 1980s or early 1990s using HUD's Project Based Section 8 program, Low Income Housing Tax Credits, or Tax Exempt Bond Financing. Most of these projects are under a 55 -year affordability term. As many of these units were built between the 1980 to the present, the affordability covenants do not expire within the next 5 years. Another subset of affordable units were developed by non - profit, affordable housing developers which do not intend to convert their units to market -rate apartments. There are no federally assisted units in the City at risk of market rate conversion. During the time period 2005 to 2015, the following project have extended their affordability covenant(s) by another 55 Years: • Congregational Tower (2013) • Garden Villas (formerly known as Kiku Gardens) (2014) • Oxford Terrace (1999) • Palomar Apartments (1998), Based on City records and the City's 2013 -2020 Housing Element, the following is a list of Projects that are at risk of losing affordability. None of the projects are at risk of losing Section 8 contracts. Does the availability of housing units meet the needs of the population? Consolidated Plan 1 63 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 129 No, it does not. 47% (12,130 households) of the City's households are extremely low- income, very low - income and low- income, with incomes ranging from 0% -80% of the County's Area Median Income (AMI). 11% of the City's housing stock is deed restricted as affordable housing.

The simple answer is no. Housing affordability within the City is a reflection of a region -wide phenomenon. The cost of both land and housing (for sale and for rent) is high in Chula Vista, on average, higher than many areas of the county. This makes it increasingly challenging to create and maintain affordable housing. How is affordability of housing likely to change considering changes to home values and /or rents? Safe, secure and affordable housing will become more out of reach due to the high increase in equity and rents during the past year. In the past year we have seen the for -sale market jump 17 -20% in value with little inventory available. First -time home buyers have been priced out of the market by all -cash investors running up home costs. And the rental market reflects the lack of affordable for -sale homes with high rents. How do HOME rents / Fair Market Rent compare to Area Median Rent? How might this impact your strategy to produce or preserve affordable housing? The HOME /Fair Market Rents are far below the area market rents. This has made it difficult for developers to choose to produce affordable rental units under our inclusionary housing ordinance due to the potential loss of income over the 55 -year life span of an affordable unit. This has resulted in the City being the driving force behind the production of affordable rental units. Introduction HOUSING AGE AND CONDITION The age and condition of the housing stock in Chula Vista is an indicator of potential rehabilitation needs. Commonly, housing over 30 years of age needs some form of major rehabilitation, such as a new roof, foundation work, plumbing, etc. The age of a jurisdiction's housing stock is an important characteristic because it is often an indicator of housing condition and indicative of potential rehabilitation needs. Many federal and state programs use age of housing as one factor to determine housing needs and the availability of funds for housing and /or community development. East of the 1 -805, the housing stock in Chula Vista is relatively new in the Master Planning Communities of Otay Ranch, Rolling Hills Ranch, San Miguel Ranch, Winding Walk, Eastlake, and Bonita Long Canyon. Although the Census does not include statistics on housing condition based upon observations, it includes statistics that correlate closely with substandard housing conditions such as lack of plumbing or kitchen facilities. Consolidated Plan 1 66 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 132 The information presented below can only give indirect indication of housing conditions. Table 46. Condition of Units Table 47.

However, due to the low amount of inventory on the market, these properties do not remain vacant for very long. As of 04/16/2015, a search of Fannie Mae's Foreclosure listing in Chula Vista, there were no active listing available on https: / /www.homepath.com /. Need for Owner and Rental Rehabilitation Estimated Number of Housing Units Occupied by Low or Moderate Income Families with LBP Hazards Discussiondt is very difficult to count the number of low- and moderate - income families occupying housing units with lead -based paint so we can't provide an estimate. The CHAS data on the risk of lead paint total units is sample data which may haves significant margins of error. It is estimated that there are approximately 7415 rent occupied housing units in Chula Vista built before 1979 and the overall ban of lead -based paint in 1978. The most common source of lead is house paint, especially paint manufactured before 1950. Since approximately 70% of the City's housing stock was constructed prior to 1980, there is a need to educate tenants and landlords about potential lead based paint hazards. CDBG and HOME programs require compliance with all of HUD's regulations concerning lead -based paint. All housing programs operated by the City are in compliance with HUD's most recent standards regarding lead -based paint. The City's homeowner rehabilitation loan program meets the federal requirements for providing lead -based paint information with each rehabilitation loan and requiring paint testing of disturbed surfaces for lead in all single family homes constructed before 1978. If a home was found to have lead -based paint, the cost of lead -based paint removal is an eligible activity under the homeowner rehabilitation program. The City's building inspectors are alert to any housing units that apply for a permit for construction or remodeling, which may contain lead -based paint and other lead hazards. The County of San Diego's Childhood Lead Poising Prevention Program ( CLPPP), a division of the San Diego Health and Human Services Agency provides outreach and education programs and case management services for San Diego County residents, including Chula Vista residents. Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Program - CLPPP is a Public Health Services program that seeks to eliminate childhood lead poisoning by caring for lead- poisoned children and identifying and eliminating sources of lead exposure. Services provided include nursing case management for children as well as education to health care providers, communities, and families. More information about this program can be obtained by visiting the County of San Diego's Website at: http: / /www.sandiegocounty.gov /hhsa /programs /phs /child lead poisoning prevention program/ Table 50.

Total Number of Units by Program Type Describe the supply of public housing developments: Describe the number and physical condition of public housing units in the jurisdiction, including those that are participating in an approved Public Housing Agency Plan: The City of Chula Vista does not have a public housing authority. The Housing Authority of the County of San Diego serves as the City's public housing authority. As outlined above, the HACSD has 117 public housing units available to residents plus four resident - manager units, for a total of 121. These units are addressed in the HACSD PHA Plan. The HACSD received a Public Housing Assessment System (PHAS) physical score of 30 out of a possible 40 points for the fiscal year ending on June30, 2013. However, the HACSD was awarded 10 points out of a maximum score of 10 for its administration of its Capital Fund Program. The HACSD continues to improve its Public Housing stock with funding from its Capital Fund Program. The 2014 PHAS score was not yet released at the time of the preparation of the Consolidated Plan. Consolidated Plan 1 69 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 135 Table 52. Public Housing Condition HACSD Public Housine Proeram(CA108) 1 30 Describe the restoration and revitalization needs of public housing units in the jurisdiction: The approximate ages of the HACSD's four developments are: • Dorothy Street Manor — approximately 25 years; • L Street Manor — approximately 20 years; • Town Centre Manor — approximately 30 years; and, • Melrose Manor - approximately 28 years. As is the case with complexes of this age, major systems and components begin to meet or exceed their life expectancies and must be restored or replaced at an accelerating rate, which often exceeds the funding available to take the appropriate actions in a timely manner. According to the HACSD's March 2011 Energy Audit, the following restoration and /or revitalization efforts must be made, as funding permits: • Replacement of aging roofing. • Replacement of deteriorating weather - stripping. • Maintenance of heating ducts. • Replacement of windows. • Caulking of windows and doors. • Maintenance of existing systems. • Replacement of appliances and heating systems that have exceeded their life expectancies. In addition, the HACSD Public Housing Agency Plan (PHA plan) has established the following revitalization goals: • Energy upgrades. • Develop /implement community gardens at each public housing development. InJune2011, ROEL Consulting Services examined the physical needs of the HACSD's public housing. ROEL determined that approximately $123,000 was needed to address high priority issues in the four public housing sites including: windows, fire /health and safety, plumbing, HVAC, walls, and structural. Consolidated Plan 1 70 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 136 Describe the public housing agency's strategy for improving the living environment of low- and moderate - income families residing in public housing: Discussion: The City of Chula Vista does not have a public housing authority. The Housing Authority of the County of San Diego serves as the City's public housing authority. The HACSD holds an annual Capital Improvement and Resident Services meeting with public housing residents to receive information, feedback and recommendations for future capital fund projects and other resident needs. The HACSD works with residents to prioritize resident needs so that funds are directed first to higher priority items with a priority focus on energy efficiency improvements. A contracted property management company is directed to promptly address all needed repairs and the HACSD conducts annual quality control inspections. The HACSD is utilizing ROSS grant funds for a resident service coordinator to work with residents on obtaining needed services, such as transportation to doctor's appointments, so that their overall living environment is improved. As was discussed above, as the HACSD public housing ages, restoration and rehabilitation needs are expected to increase at an accelerating rate. However, income from rents generally remains level, while other sources of income, such as capital funding, do not necessarily rise at the same rate as accelerating costs. The HACSD is seeking other options, such as conversion of the public housing units, in order to provide these affordable housing units over the long -term.

In the region, the San Diego Workforce Partnership provides job training programs throughout the region. There are also various community colleges in the region that provide no to low costs educational opportunities. As previously mentioned previously, the City of Chula Vista participates in the Regional Continuum of Care Council.

Please refer to the 2015 Annual Action for the one - year goals 91.315(e). For entitlement /consortia grantees: Specify the activities that the jurisdiction plans to undertake during the next year to address the housing and supportive services needs identified in accordance with 91.215(e) with respect to persons who are not homeless but have other special needs. Please refer to the 2015 Annual Action for the one -year goals (91.220(2)). The 2015 -2019 Consolidated Plan for the City of Chula Vista addresses the three statutory program goals with local goals, objectives, strategies /activities and anticipated outcomes. The City has established priorities for each of the community development objectives based on established need, availability of funds to address the need, anticipated outcomes, and the most effective use of limited funds and resources. Priorities for specific objectives were reviewed during the Consolidated Plan planning process and revised based on public response and information on availability of federal, state and local funds. The community development objectives, including those addressing needs of the non - homeless special needs populations in the Strategic Plan are prioritized in accordance with HUD categories, as follows: Consolidated Plan 1 73 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 139 a. High Priority —The City will use federal funds to support activities that address the objectives included in this Consolidated Plan, either alone or by leveraging the investment of other public and private funds during the five -year period of the Plan. b. Medium Priority - If funds are available, the City will use federal funds to support activities that address these objectives, either alone or by leveraging with the investment of other public and private funds during the five -year period of the Plan. c. Low Priority - The City will not fund activities to address these objectives during the five -year period of the Plan, unless the City obtains other public or private funds designated for the objective. The City will provide letters certifying consistency with the consolidated plan for local agencies when applying for federal assistance, when the application is directly related to objectives in the five -year plan. The primary obstacle to overcoming the gap between needs and available services and housing for the special needs population is a lack of available funds and human resources for the tasks. The State of California has made significant cuts in current funding for social and health services, and insecurity as to future funding. Local government officials are reluctant to expand budgets without clear direction from the State Legislature as to how property funds will be divided between the State budget and local jurisdictions. At the same time, funding for federal programs for this population from the Department of Health and Human Services has not kept pace with increasing needs in the community; even funds for competitive programs are reduced through "earmarks" in appropriation bills. Other obstacles are ones that are known to all communities: One is a lack of public awareness of or support for particular problems, such as the unique problems of housing and supportive services for homeless persons with mental illnesses, or the long -term housing needs for developmentally disable persons. A second is local resistance to small residential facilities for persons in recovery or persons with development disabilities. A third obstacle is the increasingly limited funding to support residential and treatment care for special needs populations who have been "de- institutionalized," leading to a low -paid workforce and high turnover among such workers. A fourth is the increasing number of families without health insurance, leading to a lack of family funding for early treatment of mental illness, developmental disorders and other special needs. The trend toward reduced funding for these programs will only exacerbate the problem in coming years. At the same time, many families are unaware of health programs and services for which they are eligible, leading to a gap between providers and eligible recipients. The City also works with a number of local agencies that provide housing and /or service to persons with special needs and their families. • The Norman Park Senior Center provides an array of services. • Two other organizations assist in feeding low- income seniors in Chula Vista are Meals on Wheels, Salvation Army, and MAAC project's senior meal program in partnership with Feeding America. Meals- on- Wheels provides home delivery of meals five days a week to seniors who are homebound, and to persons with disabilities that make it difficult for the person to get out. • MAAC project provides food distribution site, in collaboration with the San Diego Food Bank, to low- income seniors at the MAAC office at 1385 Third Avenue Chula Vista, CA 91911. • South Bay Community Services also operates its South Bay Food Program at various locations in the City of Chula Vista. Consolidated Plan 1 74 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 140 Negative Effects of Public Policies on Affordable Housing and Residential Investment Governmental constraints can limit the operations of the public, private and nonprofit sectors making it difficult to meet the demand for affordable housing and limiting supply in the region. Governmental constraints are policies, development standards, requirements and actions imposed by the various levels of government upon land and housing ownership and development. These constraints may include land use controls, growth management measures, zoning and building codes, fees, processing and permit procedures, and site improvement costs. LACK OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING FUNDS With the dissolution of redevelopment in California, the City of Chula Vista has lost its most powerful tool and funding mechanism to provide affordable housing in the community. Funding at the State and Federal levels has also continued to experience significant cuts. With reduced funding and increased housing costs, the City faces significant challenges in providing affordable and decent housing opportunities for its lower and moderate income residents, especially with extremely low incomes. REGULATORY COMPLIANCE In 2013, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) released an update to the HOME Investment Partnership Act program (HOME). HOME funds is one of the primary funding sources for the creation of affordable housing in the City of Chula Vista. With the new definition of what is considered a "HOME Commitment" the City must ensure public, private, and non - profit sectors understand these new rules. These additional regulations may affect the development of affordable residential units. For a comprehensive list of the new HOME rules, please visit the HUD website at: https : / /Portal.hud.gov /hudportal/ HUD ?src= /hudprograms /home - program Other earmarks that may affect the ability to create affordable housing include the following: • 25% HOME match requirement • 15% CHDO set aside requirement • Commitment and Expenditure Requirements • 221 (d) (3) limit • 95% after rehab value • Other program updates that are releases without additional funding (non- funded mandates) LAND USE CONTROLS Land use controls take a number of forms that affect the development of residential units. These controls include General Plan policies, zoning designations (and the resulting use restrictions, development standards, and permit processing requirements), development fees and local growth management programs. PARKING REQUIREMENTS Parking requirements do not stain the development of housing directly. However, the costs of parking may increase total development costs. Consolidated Plan 1 75 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 141 STATE PREVAILING WAGE REQUIREMENTS The State Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) expanded the types of projects that require the payment of prevailing wages. Labor Code Section 1720, which applies prevailing wage rates of public works contracts over 1,000, now defines public works to mean construction, alteration, installation, demolition, or repair work done under contract and paid for in whole in part out of public funds. Prevailing wage adds to the overall costs of development. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION State law (Construction Environmental Quality Act, California Endangered Species Act) and federal law (National Environmental Protection Act, Federal Endangered Species Act), regulations require environmental review of proposed discretionary projects (e.g., subdivision maps, use permits, etc.). Costs resulting from environmental review process are also added to the cost of housing. DAVIS -BACON PREVAILING WAGES A prevailing wage must be paid to laborers when federal funds are used to pay labor costs for any project over $2,000 or on any multi - family rehabilitation project over eight units using CDBG funds and applies to HOME funded projects requiring more than 11 HOME units to be restricted units (based on the City's investment). The prevailing wage requirements are usually higher than competitive wages, raising the costs of housing production and rehabilitation activities. Davis -Bacon also adds to housing costs by requiring documentation of the prevailing wage compliance. These requirements often restrict participation by small minority contractors. PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT FEES Development fees and taxes charged by local governments also contribute to the costs of housing. Building, zoning, and site improvement fees can significantly add to the costs of construction and have a negative effect on the production of affordable housing. In addition, developers are required to pay local impact fees to local school districts. The City of Chula Vista fees to offset the costs associated with permit processing. When compared to other agencies in the region, Chula Vista permitting processing costs may affect overall development budgets. PERMIT AND PROCESSING PROCEDURES The processing time required to obtain approval of development plans is often cited as a contributing factor to the high cost of housing. For some proposed development projects, additional time is needed to complete the environmental review process before an approval can be granted. Unnecessary delays add to the cost of construction by increasing land holding costs and interest payments. Compared to other California cities, the City of Chula Vista processed entitlements and permits quickly and offers affordable housing developers the opportunity to participate in the City's expedite permit process. PUBLIC OPPOSITION TO AFFORDABLE HOUSING Not- in -My- Back -Yard (NIMBY) is a term used to describe opposition by local residents to construction, typically of affordable housing, though also in public facilities. Public opposition to affordable housing Consolidated Plan 1 76 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 142 projects can cause delays in the development review process and sometimes can lead to project denial. A large amount of funds can be spent by developers of affordable housing but ultimately with a proposed project being denied during the public hearing process due to public opposition. INFRASTRUCTURE CONSTRAINTS Chula Vista strives to maintain existing infrastructure and meet the future demands. Challenges posed by new development including extending service to unserved areas, keeping pace with construction, and adjusting for changes in designated density. Challenges posed by density increases in older parts of the City including repairing existing deficiencies and maintaining and possible upsizing older infrastructure. STRATEGY TO REMOVE OR AMELIORATE THE BARRIERS TO AFFORDABLE HOUSING The City of Chula Vista works to remove barriers to affordable housing and the financial impact efforts to protect the health and safety of its residents by taking actions to reduce costs or providing off - setting financing incentives to assist in the production of safe, high quality, affordable housing. To mitigate the impacts of these barriers the City may: • Apply for State and federal funding to gap finance affordable housing production and rehabilitation of existing affordable housing stock. • Continue to streamline the environmental review process for housing developments, using available state categorical exemptions and federal categorical exclusions, when applicable. Also, send staff to CEQA and NEPA trainings as needed to gain expertise in the preparation of environmental review documents. • Continue to improve the permit processing and planning approval processes to minimize delay in housing development in general and affordable housing development in particular. • Continue providing rehabilitation assistance and homeownership assistance, and to assist in the construction and preservation of affordable housing. • Encourage public participation when a proposed project is being considered for approval. • Implement policies and strategies identified in the 2013 -2020 Housing Element. Please refer to the 2013 -2020 Chula Vista Housing Element for a comprehensive list of Barriers to Housing: http: / /www.chulavistaca.gov/ departments /development- services /housing.

Chula Vista's strategic location near the U.S Border with Mexico and other assets make it the retail, manufacturing, and service hub of South San Diego County. Within Chula Vista, the major employment sectors are Retail Trade; Education and Health Care Services; and Manufacturing. These three sectors represent approximately a large percent of the employment opportunities available in the City. Generally, South San Diego County is strong in manufacturing. Consolidated Plan 1 80 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 146 Describe the workforce and infrastructure needs of the business community: The recession hit the manufacturing industry in the region especially hard with losses of over 33,000 jobs during the past decade. Still with these challenges the manufacturing industry remains a vital component to San Diego County's economy. To prepare for the influx of manufacturing opportunities, the South County Economic Development Council (SCEDC) surveyed over 280 manufacturers between October 2011 and June 2012 to identify challenges and opportunities for local manufacturers. The survey reflects the majority of manufacturers are satisfied with their current location. However, manufacturers felt they were overburdened by regulations. The complexity of the regulations, the compliance requirements and the multiplicity of agencies was cited as putting them at a disadvantage. In addition, manufacturers expressed difficulty in finding qualified employees noting many of the training programs have been downsized or no longer exist due to budget cuts. There is a need to retrain current employees and offer additional training classes related to computerized manufacturing equipment. Also, taxes in California were compared unfavorably with taxes in other states. Furthermore, the labor force in South San Diego County is not as well educated as the average adult in California. South San Diego County also face many infrastructure challenges including an international border that needs major infrastructure investment. The efficient movement of goods and people safely through these ports of entry are critical to the region's economy and provide a competitive advantage. Funding is also needed for construction of new roadways, expansion and maintenance of existing roadways, and other infrastructure projects to accommodate current and projected growth demands. Within the City of Chula Vista, aging infrastructure continues to present challenges to the City in facilitating the revitalization of neighborhoods. The City completed the following planning documents: 1. Urban Core Specific Plan 2. Palomar Gateway District Specific Plan 3. Bayfront Specific Plan The documents in its entirety can be viewed at the City's Planning website at www.chulavistaca.gov/ departments /development- services /planning Describe any major changes that may have an economic impact, such as planned local or regional public or private sector investments or initiatives that have affected or may affect job and business growth opportunities during the planning period. Describe any needs for workforce development, business support or infrastructure these changes may create. The local economy currently and historically has been heavily influenced by the presence of the U.S. military and Department of Defense. The use of private contractors by this sector of the economy has been a major revenue and job generator. Despite projected cuts to future Defense budgets, the San Diego region stands to be a net gainer owing to its increasing military utility and shift of military focus to the West Coast. Both the Navy and Marine Corps also are slated to spend large amounts on Consolidated Plan 1 81 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 147 local construction projects in the coming years according the 2011 San Diego Military Economic Impact Study commissioned by the San Diego Military Advisory Council (SDMAC). While south and east San Diego County is associated with much of the R &D and more advanced or technical manufacturing in the region, as global competition increases, many manufacturing firms are forced to look overseas for additional or more affordable manufacturing. Some production will continue to move overseas. Being able to stay within the U.S. may enable more manufacturing firms in the region to take advantage of the military and /or defense department markets and provide more - skilled and better paying jobs. To protect this valuable asset it is critical that jurisdictions and service providers in South and East San Diego County strive to ensure the workforce, infrastructure, business resources, and general business climate stays competitive and is conducive to building this sector of the economy. How do the skills and education of the current workforce correspond to employment opportunities in the jurisdiction? The majority of Chula Vista residents who are employed have some college or associate degree level of education. However, only 26.9 percent have attained a bachelor's degree or higher. This will limit the types of industries that the region can currently support. Chula Vista continues to pursue a local University and continues on the planning efforts. A University in the City will most likely boost educational attainment and skills training; thereby, improving the region's competitive economic position. An educated and highly trained workforce would support existing and new businesses and remove limitations that lead to low- education and low -skill industry growth. Describe any current workforce training initiatives, including those supported by Workforce Investment Boards, community colleges and other organizations. Describe how these efforts will support the jurisdiction's Consolidated Plan. A number of workforce training initiatives and programs are available to Chula Vista residents. The following discussion provides details on the region's major programs: • San Diego Workforce Partnership (SDWP): SDWP has established programs and services promoting self- sufficiency and addressing the current and long -term needs of the region's employers and job seekers. The network of One -Stop Career Centers and the service providers offer adult and youth employment and training programs, labor market information, employment resources, summer and after - school jobs for youth, and job training for dislocated workers. In addition, SDWP's Adult Programs Committee provides governance to Workforce Investment Act (WIA) Adult funded programs. • Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS): Through the Workforce Development Service providers and partnerships established in the CEDS Study Area, job seekers can receive skills training for a wide range of occupations that support existing and emerging businesses. • San Diego and Imperial Counties Labor Council: The Labor Council is the local central body affiliate of the AFL -CIO. It includes 125 affiliated labor groups within San Diego County. Nearly every sector of the workplace is represented in the membership, including the building and construction trades, hotel workers, longshoremen, nurses, fire fighters, teachers and more. The Consolidated Plan 1 82 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 148 Labor Council provides training in a variety of skills and trades from entry level to journeyman. In the past, the Labor Council has worked alongside the SDWP, community colleges, and local employers to provide a range of job training programs and help meet employers' need for skilled workers. The Labor Council's programs also include Vocational English as a Second Language (VESL), pre- employment training in employer and workplace expectations, work ethics, resume preparation and job interviewing skills. A state -of- the -art computer technology center is available to help job seekers improve their English, math, and general computer skills, thereby improving their chances for better jobs. Technical skills are also taught in several trades so clients can be placed with some of the area's largest union employers. • AB109 Public Safety Realignment: Under the direction of the Community Corrections Partnership (CCP), the San Diego Public Safety Agencies, including the Probation Department, Sheriff's Department, District Attorney's Office, Public Defender's Office, came together with the San Diego Superior Court and other key partners, including the Health and Human Services Agency, to develop an AB 109 Implementation Plan focused on maintaining the highest level of public safety and ultimately, striving to reduce recidivism. As the agency charged with managing the realigned population, Probation will also engage community providers to obtain reentry services including, educational, job preparation, and vocational training /employment services, cognitive behavioral treatment, family strengthening strategies, restorative justice programs, and housing resources. Does your jurisdiction participate in a Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS)? If so, what economic development initiatives are you undertaking that may be coordinated with the Consolidated Plan? If not, describe other local /regional plans or initiatives that impact economic growth. In October2008,the South County Economic Development Council (SCEDC) received an Economic Development Administration (EDA) grant to create a Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS). The resulting 2011 CEDS is a collaborative effort between SCEDC, the East County Economic Development Council (ECEDC), the City of San Diego, and the County of San Diego. The CEDS study area consists of the southern and eastern portions of San Diego County (which includes the City of El Cajon) and the City of San Diego. The 2011 CEDS outlines the following goals and initiatives that work to foster economic growth and workforce development: Goal 1: Collaboration and Leadership • Communicate CEDS vision and goals throughout the CEDS Study Area. • Build a regional leadership base that is well- informed, economic development savvy, ethnically, politically and geographically diverse and includes multiple generations. Goal 2: Business Development and Entrepreneurship • Establish private and public partnerships to capture cross - border (U.S.- Mexico and San Diego County) economic development opportunities. • Develop and implement a strategy to fully realize the potential of the existing and emerging industries; develop and recruit new industries. • Encourage the development and growth of renewable energies and resources. Consolidated Plan 1 83 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 149 • Encourage the growth of innovative and creative entrepreneurial and home -based businesses throughout the CEDS Study Area, particularly in the rural areas. • Ensure that businesses have access to financing programs and credit assistance. Strive to improve the regional business climate and where possible the California business climate. Goal 3: Education and Workforce Development • Strengthen the connections between businesses and educators in an effort to prepare workers for jobs in the target industry groups. • Provide opportunities for the CEDS Study Area youth to obtain work skills and business experiences. • Improve the educational attainment and skill -based training in the CEDS Study Area. Goal 4: Infrastructure Development • Work to ensure local, state, and federal political representatives recognize and understand the importance of maintaining, improving, and expanding the infrastructure of the US- Mexico border to support commerce and security. • Support regional efforts to enhance, improve, and expand infrastructure within the CEDS Study Area and the border ports of entry. • Explore, expand and improve the passenger and cargo transportation infrastructure in the CEDS Study Area to ensure there are secure and efficient trade corridors that support business development and facilitate the efficient movement of goods and people across borders. • Support and promote existing and planned infrastructure projects. • Support and assist existing proposed infrastructure projects, including for Gillespie Field and highway improvements. Goal 5: Quality of Life • Expand arts, cultural, recreation, and entertainment activities that are readily accessible to people from both US and Mexico and would be attractive to international visitors. • Support and encourage unique retail and downtown renovation and development. • Work towards a jobs /housing balance. • Recognize the diversity (age, ethnicity, background, etc) of the CEDS Study Area's population as an asset and strive to meet their needs. A 2015, South /East San Diego County Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy and a report on accomplishment (February 2015), can be viewed at the following website: www. southcountVedc .com / #!southandeastcountyceds /clqml Are there areas where households with multiple housing problems are concentrated? (include a definition of "concentration ") Housing problems impact lower and moderate income households disproportionately, compared to non -low and moderate income households. Therefore, areas with concentrations of low and moderate income households are likely to have high rates of housing problems. Consolidated Plan 1 84 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 150 A low and moderate income concentration is defined as a block group where at least 51 percent of the population is low and moderate income. T h e m a p below presents the geographic concentration of low and moderate income population by block group. Overall, low and moderate income block groups cover more than half of the City, with high concentrations of low and moderate income households in the central core of the City.

(include a definition of "concentration ") According to the 2010 Census, the racial /ethnic composition of Chula Vista's population was: 20.4 percent White (non- Hispanic or Latino); 58.2 percent Hispanic; 4.6 percent Black or African American; 14.4 percent Asian; and approximately 2 percent indicating other ethnic group. A concentration of racial /ethnic population is defined as a block group with above County level of the same population. With Hispanics being the largest minority group in Chula Vista, a mapping of concentrations is prepared for this Consolidated Plan and included in Appendix B. The geographic concentrations of the Hispanic population generally overlap with the concentrations of low and moderate income residents. Consolidated Plan 1 85 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 151 The City also has a large population of Asian residents. While Asian residents still make up a small proportion of the City (approximately 14.4 percent), the proportion of Asian residents in C h u I a V i s t a is slightly higher than the California overall. Refer to map below for minority concentration areas. What are the characteristics of the market in these areas /neighborhoods? X00 Census [inority Pop. ;oncentration racts Legend F eemayc Majer Reads MINORITY NON - MINORITY N In Chula Vista, the areas of low and moderate income concentrations and minority concentrations generally overlap. These areas also correlate with the concentration of the City's multi - family housing and rental housing. According to the 2010 Census, Chula Vista has a 58.7 percent homeownership rate. Which translates into approximately 41.3% of City households are renters. The average household size for households (3.25 persons) in Chula Vista was higher than the California as a whole of 2.94 persons). As previously discussed, lower income renter - households had disproportionate affordable housing needs. All these characteristics point to significant housing assistance needs among lower income renter - households in these areas. Consolidated Plan 1 86 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 152 Are there any community assets in these areas /neighborhoods? The City has a strong network of active and dedicated nonprofit organizations and community groups that work to address the housing and community development needs in these neighborhoods and the City at large. The following service agencies are located in lower and moderate income neighborhoods: • Salvation Army • San Ysidro Health Clinic • Family Health Centers of San Diego • South Bay Community Services • MAAC Project • South County Economic Development Cooperation • Various churches who provide meals and services to the homeless • Catholic Charities • Chula Vista Friends of the Library • Police Activity League (Chula Vista) Are there other strategic opportunities in any of these areas? Yes, there are other strategic opportunities in some of these areas, including the Chula Vista Bayfront. There are other properties in Low and Moderate Income Areas that have development opportunities. Other sections of the City have been rated as potential developable using sustainability measures. Consolidated Plan 1 87 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 153 I. STRATEGIC PLAN The Strategic Plan is the centerpiece of the Consolidated Plan program years 2015 - 2019 (January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2019). It describes the City of Chula Vista's priorities and proposed actions for the Consolidated Plan which relate to affordable housing, homeless assistance, and construction of infrastructure and community facilities. Resources are targeted to meet the needs of a wide range of City residents including the elderly, homeless, special needs persons, and low- and moderate - income persons. More specifically, the Strategic Plan describes: • General priorities for addressing the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD's) primary objectives including: Suitable Living Environment, Economic Development, and Decent Housing • Objectives identifying the use of funds. • Programs that may be carried out for the Plan period. The objectives and outcomes are listed with the proposed activities and funding sources.

Chula Vista's Strategic Plan strives to build on the accomplishments of the 2010 Consolidated Plan Five - Year Strategic Plan as well addressing issues which have grown in importance or changing conditions. Notwithstanding, the City's basic housing and community development objectives have not changed. The City partners with other governmental entities to increase efficiency, coordinate service delivery, and leverage additional resources. The private sector assists with the provisions of services through for - profit housing developers, community housing development organizations (CHDOs), nonprofits, and other similar organizations. It is important to note that while the City has made progress in addressing its needs, the level of housing and community service needs cannot be totally remedied within the next five years without a substantial increase in the level of federal funds appropriated to HUD.

Chula Vista had the eighth fastest growth percentage rate nationally since 2010 U.S. Census for cities with a population over 100,000. Now home to nearly a quarter - million residents, Chula Vista is the second largest city in San Diego County. The City encompasses approximately 52 square miles of land area from San Diego Bay eastward to Otay Lakes and includes most of the land between Sweetwater River to the north and the Otay River to the south. The Bayfront, rivers, hills define Chula Vista. Located minutes from downtown San Diego and the U.S- Mexico border, Chula Vista has convenient access to the regions cultural, recreational, educational, and business opportunities. SP 3 z Cfl'}'UF -I �. 2015- 05 -0*kk A* Ya�R ING DIVISION Page 156 The City's communities can be distinguished by geographic planning areas that follow the overall development patterns of the City. • Northwest — That area north of L Street and east of Interstate 5, also referred to as the City's historic urban core; • Southwest — That area south of L Street, generally encompassing those neighborhoods included within the Montgomery annexation of 1985; • East — That area east of Interstate 805, generally encompassing master planned communities developed from the early 1990's; and, • Bayfront — That area west of Interstate -5 and north of L Street, currently underdeveloped with some development and large vacant waterfront properties. The City of Chula Vista focuses on each of the four geographic planning areas to target appropriate programs and activities given their unique physical, economic, and cultural characteristics. By utilizing a geographic focus area approach, the City is able to implement programs that better address the growing needs of the Chula Vista community. Within the older neighborhoods of the Northwest and Southwest Planning Areas, policies and programs are focused on the preservation and maintenance of housing and neighborhoods and revitalization of these areas with newer development. Although eastern Chula Vista has developed significantly in the past decade, most new development in Chula Vista will continue to be in that area of the City. While the City has not established specific target areas to focus the investment of CDBG /HOME /ESG funds, specific geographic distribution of investments, infrastructure improvements and public facilities will be focused primarily in areas of concentrations of low and moderate income population which are primarily located within the Northwest and Southwest areas of the City. The map above contains a list of block groups illustrating the low and moderate income areas in the City (defined as a block group where at least 51 percent of the population with incomes not exceeding 80 percent of the Area Median SP 4 z Cfl'}'UF -I �. 2015- 05 -0*kk A* Ya�R ING DIVISION Page 157 Income). For community -wide activities, income verification is used to ensure low -to moderate - income beneficiary levels. Investments in public facilities, including capital improvement projects, and services serving special needs populations and primarily low and moderate income persons can be made throughout the City so long as the activity meets a HUD National objective and there is demonstrated significant benefit to low and moderate income persons. The general basis used for prioritizing investments includes the total number of residents benefited, the urgent need of a given community within the City, environment issues that threaten life or property, the need for improved access, and other important needs of the community as a whole. For public services, the City utilizes 15 percent of its Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) allocation to provide small grants to non - profit organizations that demonstrate an ability to provide needed services that directly benefit the low and moderate income residents of the City of Chula Vista. By directing public service funds as grants to these non - profits, the City is able to leverage its CDBG funds for projects and activities that serve the greatest number of residents with this limited amount of funding. Housing assistance will be available to income - qualified households. Due to aging housing stock in Northwest and Southwest Chula Vista, priority will be given to those households who wish to participate in owner occupied residential rehabilitation programs to maintain safe housing and for revitalization of neighborhoods. New construction of affordable housing will likely occur in East Chula Vista with its available undeveloped land and to provide for a more diverse and varied housing stock in the area. The City utilizes CDBG funds for Capital Improvement Projects (CIPS) for the objective of creating a suitable living environment and utilizing HUD performance measurements /outcomes of availability /sustainability. The City has a detailed list of approved Capital Improvement Projects that demonstrate a general public need but, due to budget constraints, funding may not be available for those smaller projects. Priority for allocating CDBG funding is given to capital improvement projects located within an approved HUD qualifying census tract and /or census block group. Capital Improvement Project priorities are assigned based on a number of factors including: the total number of residents benefited; areas of other projects; phase of improvement project; needs assessment results; and budget prioritization of Capital Improvement Projects, assuming the project is within a qualifying census tract. Priorities for CIP projects are addressed by the City Council and the budget for the City during each fiscal year (July 1 to June 30). SP 5 .�.++►- 2015- 05 -0%�W &PaWW"(" ❑IVISK)" Page 158 The City of Chula Vista has established the following priority needs which guide funding during the five - year Consolidated Planning period. The Priorities and Annual Action Plan goals are described below: A. HOUSING PRIORITIES The City's top housing priorities during the next 5 years are: PRIORITY 1: AFFORDABLE RENTAL HOUSING FOR LOW AND MODERATE INCOME HOUSEHOLDS The City of Chula Vista's 2013 -2020 Housing Element Policy 2.2 states the City will utilize available resources, seek to preserve and provide sufficient, suitable, and varied housing by small and large family size, type of unit, and cost particularly permanent affordable housing that meets the needs of existing and future residents of Chula Vista. Input from stakeholders and survey results identified programs that prevent and mitigate homelessness as a high priority as well as those projects and programs that serve special needs populations. Priority will be given to programs /projects that provide assistance to extremely low, very low and moderate income households and special needs households. The development of affordable rental housing also meets the City's Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) goals to provide for the new construction of housing units to meet the anticipated growth in population in the San Diego County region. Per the 2013 -2020 Housing Element the City's RHNA goals are the following: Table 1. Chula Vista Housing Needs Assessment Goals Income Category RHNA Construction Need Extremely Low 1,605 Very Low 1,604 Low 2,439 Moderate 2,257 Above Moderate 4,956 Total 12,681 Priority: Produce affordable rental units for low and moderate income households. Objective: Provide 230 affordable housing units (approximately 3 affordable housing projects during the ConPlan). Resources: Development Services - Housing Division: Production of Affordable Housing: HOME entitlement funds will be utilized for affordable housing development, housing site improvements, predevelopment costs and other activities to stimulate housing for lower income persons in the City. SP 6 r� 2015- 05 -fD** V] &Pad` k" ,[' D1111510n Page 159 Balanced Communities - Affordable Housing Policy: The City of Chula Vista's Housing Element of the General Plan states that any development over 50 units must provide 10 percent of the units for low and moderate income households, with at least one -half of those units (5 percent of project total) being designated for low- income households. PRIORITY 2: MAINTENANCE AND PRESERVATION OF EXISTING HOUSING STOCK The age of the housing is often an indicator of housing conditions. Housing over 50 years old is considered aged and more likely to generate major repairs. In Chula Vista, 15 percent of The City's housing units were built prior to 1960, approximately 47 percent of the housing units were built prior to 1980, therefore, the majority (62 percent) of Chula Vista's housing is at least 30 years or older, and may be in need of repairs. The City will provide financial assistance to income - eligible households to rehabilitate owner - occupied single family homes as well as multi - family units in an effort to preserve or increase The City's affordable housing stock. The City of Chula Vista's 2013 -2020 Housing Element Policy 2.1 establishes a need for rehabilitation of the City's housing stock and preserving the integrity of residential neighborhoods by preventing deterioration and leveraging housing programs with planned capital improvements that encourage further capital investment in neighborhoods. The City will utilize community -based rehabilitation programs such as CHIP and other programs supported by local utilities and regional partners to encourage the maintenance and enhancement of residential quality and sustainability. This activity will complement the San Diego Association of Government's (SANDAG's) Sustainability Communities Strategy. Priority: Maintain and preserve the city's housing stock. Objective: Maintain and /or preserve 55 Housing Units (approximately 10 housing units per year) Resources: Community Housing Improvement Program (CHIP): Continued successful implementation of the City's Community Housing Improvement Program (CHIP) which provides favorable loans to low- income homeowners to preserve and rehabilitate deteriorating homes and to provide greater accessibility for those with physical disabilities. Eligible rehabilitation activities include water conservation, energy efficiency, and lead -based paint abatement. PRIORITY 3: HOMEOWNERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES An Affordability Gap analysis indicates that households must earn $75,000 a year to afford a median priced home in Chula Vista. Sale prices, especially for detached homes, are still largely unaffordable in Chula Vista. Input from stakeholders and survey results identified First Time Homebuyer programs as a Priority. SP 7 r� 2 015- 05 -0%�W &PaWk" ,[, DIVIS10% Page 160 The City may leverage its Cal -Home funds from the State of California Housing and Community Development (State HCD) to assist homebuyers. Priority: Provide homeownership assistance and other programs to help renters become homeowners. Objective: Provide 20 affordable housing units (3 to 5 households annually). Resources: Mortgage Credit Certificate Program (MCC): The MCC program allows eligible buyers to take 20 percent of their mortgage interest as a tax credit on the federal income taxes. To be eligible for the MCC program in non - targeted Census tracts, a household must be a first -time homebuyer, buy a home in Chula Vista, and earn less than 115 percent of area median income. Chula Vista Pre- and Post - Purchase Counseling Program: Courses are held throughout the region with pre- and post- purchase counseling services. Chula Vista First Time Homebuver Program: This City program helps families earning up to 80 percent of AMI through a soft second on their first home purchase. Chula Vista's Cal Home First -Time Homebuver Program: The City received a $1 million grant award from the State of California to provide homebuyer assistance to approximately 16 households. Reissued Mortgage Credit Certificate Program (RMCQ: This program allows an existing MCC holder to refinance their mortgage and continue utilizing the benefit of having an MCC. B. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PRIORITIES The City's top community development priorities during the next 5 years are based on a review of the City of Chula Vista infrastructure needs and proposed economic development strategies: Priority 1: Infrastructure improvements Priority: Infrastructure improvements in low and moderate income neighborhoods. Targeted activities: • Street and sidewalk improvements in low income areas. • Flood prevention and drainage improvements. SP 8 r� 2015- 05- 0%�W*aiPaWWE '(' DIVI510% Page 161 PRIORITY 2: Community Enhancement Priority will be given to improvements made to facilities serving youth, park, recreational and neighborhood facilities, facilities serving other special needs populations, health and child care facilities. Priority: Community facilities Targeted groups: • Facilities serving youth. • Park and recreational and neighborhood facilities. • Facilities serving other special needs populations. • Health and child care facilities. PRIORITY 3: Public ServicesFORSpecial Needs and Homeless Priority is given to fund the maximum amount allowable (15% of the annual CDBG entitlement) to services that benefit low /moderate income, special needs and homeless populations. With limited funding available and to effectively serve the greatest needs and the most vulnerable populations groups, highest priority is given to programs providing basic/ essential services (food, housing, emergency services). Medium priority is given to special needs populations (at -risk youth, family violence, disabled persons, and elderly persons). Low Priority will be given to all other categories. These priorities are consistent with community surveys responses that were received during the public outreach process and call logs from 2 -1 -1 San Diego. The City may utilize the funding methodology below that consists of a three -tier approach, classifying each of the activities in the following three categories for Public Services activities: Tier I: Basic /Essential Needs (Food, Housing, Emergency Services) Tier II: Special Needs (At -Risk Youth, Family Violence, Special Needs /Disabled) Tier III: Other (Transportation Services, Case Management, Preventative Health Care Services, Crime Prevention (for non -at risk populations) Recreation (non - disabled, non- emergency services) PRIORITY 4: Economic Development priorities Input from stakeholders and survey results identified programs to increase employment opportunities for low and moderate income persons, including job training opportunities. The San Diego Work Force Partnership and the South Bay Career Center provide some of these services for Chula Vista residents. However, the City will continue to seeking funding opportunities such as HUD's Promise Zone program and other economic development grants and incentives that are available to local government agencies to assist with meeting these goals.

Homeless Special Approximately 3,224 households are already participating in the Housing Choice Voucher Needs Program (Section 8 program). There are 4 existing public housing projects in Chula Vista. Given the limited funding and existing rental assistance programs, the City does not plan to utilize HOME TBRA funds to assist Non - Special needs households. High market -rate rents in East Chula Vista will limit the ability of Housing Choice Voucher holders and TBRA programs to successfully obtain rental housing within this area. New Unit The majority of the City's lower and moderate income households (67 %) experience a Production housing cost burden, paying more than 30% of their income towards housing costs. The supply of affordable housing is limited compared to the need. For the 2010 -2020 planning period, Chula Vista has a Regional Housing Need for 5,648 newly constructed units for low income households to meet the expected population growth. Based on funding availability and allocations, the City may allocate a portion of its HOME or CDBG funds to increase the supply of safe, decent, affordable housing for lower income households (including extremely low income households), particularly for those large families, disabled, the homeless, and those at risk of homelessness. Rehabilitation The age of the housing is often an indicator of housing conditions. In general, housing that is 30 years or older may need minor repair, with housing over 50 years old more likely to generate major repairs. In Chula Vista, the majority (62 percent) of Chula Vista's housing is at least 30 years or older. The City will provide assistance to rehabilitate owner occupied single family homes and to rehabilitate multi - family units to preserve or increase the City's affordable housing stock. No funding will be spent on owner occupied rehabilitation for properties built after 1985. Acquisition, The 2013 -2020 Housing Element identified 501 assisted housing units that are considered including "at risk" of converting to market -rate housing over the next ten years. The City will work preservation toward the preservation of these units. The City will also pursue acquisition /rehabilitation of multi - family housing and deed restricting the improved units as affordable housing.

City staff, in its funding applications, emphasizes the need to leverage federal, state and local resources. Applications are evaluated based upon the program and organization's ability to leverage and its fiscal stability and sustainability. These efforts have been fruitful and projects funded under CDBG, HOME, and ESG have substantially exceeded the accomplishments that could have been achieved from federal funds alone. Although there is no official match requirement in the CDBG program, in most cases, other funds, such as private funds received through donors or fund raising activities, commercial loans, Gas Tax funds, non - federal funds, are used to supplement and defray project costs. HOME funds require a 25% match and ESG funds require a dollar for dollar match. The HOME program requires that for every HOME dollar spent, the City must provide a 25 percent match with non - federal dollars. In the past, Redevelopment Low and Moderate Income Housing funds were the City's primary source for leveraging or providing matching funds for the City's Housing programs. With the dissolution of redevelopment in California, the City no longer has access to this funding source. With the City's proactive production of affordable housing, the City maintains an excess of funds leveraged from previous fiscal years that will fulfill the City's HOME match requirements for future years. The ESG program requires that for every ESG dollar spent, the City must provide a 100 percent match with non - federal dollars. The matching funds are met by the non - profit organizations themselves through the leveraging of their other non - federal funds, such as private donations. The City utilizes additional Federal, State and Local funding sources to leverage the HUD Community Planning and Development (CPD) funds that the City or its Subrecipients receive, as further described below and detailed within the City's 2013 -2020 Housing Element, Appendix C Section 3.0. FEDERAL PROGRAMS Rental Assistance Program (Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program): The Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program provides almost $85 million annually in tenant -based rental assistance for very low - income households residing in privately owned rental units. Program participants typically pay between 30 to 40 percent of their monthly- adjusted incomes for rent and utilities. The Housing Authority of the County of San Diego (HACSD) administers the program in the City of Chula Vista and issues the assistance payments directly to the landlords on behalf of the assisted households. Supportive Housing Program (SHP): SHP provides grants to improve the quality of existing shelters and transitional housing, and increases the availability of transitional housing facilities for the homeless. SHP is the primary program supporting transitional housing for the homeless. For a comprehensive list of projects that received an award under this program, please visit the following weblink: http: / /www.sdcounty.ca.gov /sdhcd /homeless /supportive housing program.html Or by visiting HUD's website at the following link: https: / /www.onecpd .info /resource /1237 /usich- opening- doors - federal - strategic -plan- end - homelessness/ Strategic Plan I P a g e 13 01� OF r� CHULAVIST.-N ry(7iJ$Iti[, L)IVI %Y, 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 166 National Housing Trust Fund: Approved by Congress but still unfunded, the National Housing Trust Fund could at some point become a new source for new affordable and supportive housing. At the time of this writing, however, funding has not been identified. Project Based Section 8: The County of San Diego Housing and Community Development Department issues a Notice of Funding Availability for Project -based Section 8 voucher for special needs populations, contingent on funding availability. Using these funds for operations will allow developers to leverage other funds to develop additional housing units in Chula Vista. Mortgage Credit Certificate (MCC) Program: The City of Chula participates in the San Diego Regional MCC Program developed and administered by County Department of Housing and Community Development. The Program provides home purchase assistance to low- and moderate - income first -time homebuyers with incomes at or below 115% of the State Median Income. Homebuyers receive a federal income tax credit equal to 20% of the annual interest on their mortgage loan. The County's program includes the City of Chula Vista. First Time Homebuyers are encouraged to apply. STATE PROGRAMS California Department of Housing and Community Development (State HCD): State HCD administers a number of programs that provide funds that can be combined with other federal and local funds. Low- Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC): Federal and State tax credits are used by developers of multi- family housing in return for reserving a portion of the development for moderate -, low -, and very low - income households at affordable rents. These Federal and State tax credits are allocated by the State based on a priority scoring system. Over the years, several non - profit organizations, assisted with City funds, have received LIHTC funds. City will continue to encourage organizations to apply for and utilize these funds consistent with the 2010 -2015 City of Chula Vista Consolidated Plan. Mental Health Services Act (MHSA): The passage of Proposition 63 (MHSA) in November 2004, provided the first opportunity in many years for the State Department of Mental Health to provide increased funding for personnel and other resources to support county mental health programs and monitor progress toward statewide goals for children, transition age youth, adults, older adults and families. The Act addresses a broad continuum of prevention, early intervention and service needs and the necessary infrastructure, technology and training elements that will effectively support this system. It is anticipated that the MHSA housing funding may be leveraged with the City of Chula Vista's housing programs (based on availability of funding). Cal -HOME Program: A Notice of Funding Availability is released each year through a competitive application process that provides funds for mortgage assistance to low- income first -time homebuyers. In the event the City is successful in its grant application, these funds would be used to supplement HOME funds and would be awarded in conjunction with The City's Homebuyer Assistance Program. The California Housing Finance Agency (CaIHFA): CalHFA supports the needs of renters and first -time homebuyers by providing financing and programs that create safe, decent and affordable housing opportunities for individuals within specified income ranges. Established in 1975, CalHFA was chartered Strategic Plan 14 01� OF r� CHULAVIST.4 HotJYMI 171111510', 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 167 as the State's affordable housing bank to make below market -rate loans through the sale of tax - exempt bonds. The bonds are repaid by revenues generated through mortgage loans and not taxpayer dollars. State of California Multi- family Housing Program (MHP): This program provides permanent financing for affordable multi - family housing development, in the form of low- interest loans to developers for new construction, rehabilitation, or acquisition and rehabilitation of permanent or transitional rental housing, and the conversion of nonresidential structures to rental housing. The Landings I affordable housing project in Chula Vista received MHP funds during fiscal year 2008 -2009. City will encourage affordable housing developers to apply for these funding opportunities as they are available. However, in 2010, the State MHP issued, what was the reported as, the final MHP Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA). No new source of funding has been identified. City will continue to explore funding availability as the State identifies new sources to fill this gap. State of California Emergency Housing Assistance Program (EHAP): This program funds emergency shelters, transitional housing, and services for homeless individuals and families. EHAP funds operating costs and support services through grants. Capital development funding is structured as forgivable loans. Federal Home Loan Bank Affordable Housing Program (AHP): The Affordable Housing Program provides grants and subsidized loans to support affordable rental housing and homeownership opportunities. Housing Related Parks Grant (HRP): State HCD provides funding through the Housing - Related Parks (HRP) Program (Program). The HRP Program is designed to encourage cities and counties to develop new residential housing by rewarding those jurisdictions that approve housing affordable to lower - income households and are in compliance with State housing element law. The HRP Program was funded through Proposition 1C, the Housing and Emergency Shelter Trust Fund Act of 2006, Health and Safety Code Section 53545, subdivision (d) and originally established pursuant to Chapter 641, Statutes of 2008 (AB 2494, Caballero), at Chapter 8 of Part 2 of Division 31 of the Health and Safety Code (commencing with Section 50700) and subsequently amended pursuant to Chapter 779, Statutes 2012 (AB 1672, Torres). The Program awards funds on a per- bedroom basis for each residential unit affordable to very lowand low- income households permitted during the designated Program year. The Program provides funds for parks and recreation projects that benefit the community and add to the quality of life. LOCAL PROGRAMS City Density Bonus Programs: The City's density bonus program is administered by the City of Chula Vista's Development Services Housing Division (City HD). City HD administers the occupancy requirements as they relate to eligible income and rent requirements for units developed under these programs. In conformance with State Density Bonus Law, these programs establish provisions by which densities may exceed those set by the City Zoning Ordinance or further described in applicable specific plans if the developer reserves some or all of the proposed units for various periods of time for very low and low- income families and seniors. Strategic Plan 15 01� OF r� CHULAVIST.4 HotJYMI 171111510', 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 168 Balanced Communities Policy: The Housing Element of The City's General Plan (2013 -2020) establishes goals and policies for the City to address a number of important housing related issues. One of the focus areas is to ensure the City supports varied housing opportunities for the diverse needs of residents including the establishment of permanent affordable housing opportunities for low- and moderate - income households. Adopted in 1981, the Balanced Communities Policy ( "Policy') was established to increase the diversity of housing prices /rents throughout the Chula Vista community and ensure that the range of prices /rents continues over time. The Policy requires certain residential development of 50 units or more to provide 10% of the total number of dwelling units as affordable to low (5%) and moderate (5%) income households. Conventional Lending Industry: Banks have participated in providing conventional loans for development of affordable rental units. The banking industry is also active in providing first -time homebuyer assistance in conjunction with State and federal programs. Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC): LISC helps resident -led, community -based development organizations transform distressed communities and neighborhoods into healthy ones. By providing capital, technical expertise, training and information, LISC supports the development of local leadership and the creation of affordable housing, commercial, industrial and community facilities, businesses and jobs. Federal Home Loan Bank Community Investment Fund: Grants and loans are made through the Federal Home Loan Bank System, with more than 200 member savings and loan associations. Loans are made through member banks to sponsors of affordable housing and other community revitalization and development activities. If appropriate, describe publically owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that may be used to address the needs identified in the plan. Discussion The City as Successor Housing Agency to the former Redevelopment Agency (RDA), has a number of vacant properties that may be used to support additional affordable housing projects over the next five to ten years. These properties must be used to further the goal of the City in the development of additional affordable housing units. In addition, The City's Housing Authority, acting as the Successor Housing Agency to the former Redevelopment Agency (RDA), oversees all housing assets and functions acquired or assisted with Low and Moderate Income Housing Funds in February 2012. Although no new Low and Moderate Income funds will be available, the Chula Vista Housing Authority has accepted the responsibility for the physical housing assets and loan portfolio which may continue to generate income as loans are repaid. The Chula Vista Housing Authority will have the responsibility of determining the direction and focus of any investment of the income generated from original Low and Moderate Income Housing Funds. These funds may be used to purchase property to meet the goals and objectives included in this Plan.

The City has identified the following gaps and strengths in the delivery system. GAPS: • Continued high cost of living in the City of Chula Vista and the San Diego County region. • Wages throughout the region do not correspond to high cost of living, especially for low -to moderate - income families. • Structural issues with the State of California budgeting process which leads to fiscal instability and reduced funding for public services. • Continued financial difficulties for the State's education system. • Fragmentation of certain programs serving special needs populations; there is a lack of resources to form a comprehensive approach to care. • Drastically limited amount of funds available from federal and state agencies for social services, health services, community development and rental assistance programs. • The State of California's elimination of redevelopment. This has seriously impaired the City's ability to partner with the private sector to leverage government funds for development projects that serve as an economic boost to the City as well as providing a safe and affordable housing for Chula Vista residents. STRENGTHS: • The City's cultural and philosophical commitment to the provision of affordable housing for low and moderate - income residents of Chula Vista through its Balanced Communities Policy. • The City's cultural and philosophical commitment to creating a more suitable quality of life for all of the residents of Chula Vista. • The City continues to seek large retail lenders offering conventional interest rate mortgage loans to assist First -Time Homebuyers. • The City has developed positive working relationships with existing private and nonprofit affordable housing developers to enhance the production of affordable rental and for -sale housing projects in Chula Vista to mitigate the impact of the current economy and high cost of living in Chula Vista. • The City may still be able to provide gap financing to assist affordable housing developers in the production of affordable housing. Currently, the City (the second largest City in the County) has one of the highest number of affordable housing units in the County. These units were created as a result of the City's Balanced Communities Policy and its financial assistance through its former Redevelopment funds and HUD, NSP, HOME and CDBG funds. • The City of Chula Vista continues to be an active participant in regional and sub - regional planning projects for economic development, housing, and transportation. We collaborate with the South Bay Homeless Advocacy Coalition, San Diego Regional Continuum of Care Council (RCCC), San Diego Association of Government's (SANDAG's) Regional Planning Technical Group, San Diego Regional Alliance for Fair Housing (SDAFFH), SANDAG's Regional Housing Working Group, SANDAG's Strategic Plan 18 01� OF r� CHULAVIST.4 HotJYMI 171111510', 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 171 Cities /Counties Transportation Advisory Committee (CTAC), South County Economic Development Council, Third Avenue Village Association, and the San Diego County's CDBG Coordinator's Group. • The City continues to focus on development projects that serve as an economic boost to the City as well as providing a safe and affordable housing for Chula Vista residents. • The City's most current, adopted Housing Element identifies the housing needs of the City, serves as a planning tool, and establishes a multi -year action plan to meet these needs. • The City has an Economic Development Department that supports the economic, educational, and cultural interests of the community and seeks to provide a link to the business community with educational, governmental, and non - profits organizations. • The City is fortunate to have the Chula Vista Charitable Foundation whose mission is to provide funds for non - profit agencies that provide valuable services to the community. • The City participates in the Regional CDBG Coordinator Group meetings with other entitlement jurisdictions in San Diego County, the San Diego Regional Fair Housing Alliance, Regional Continuum of Care Council, and the San Diego Housing Federation. • The City participated the 2015 -2019 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI). • The City is able to leverage CDBG funds, awarded state grant funds, and local funds for the construction of much needed capital improvement projects.

The City of Chula Vista participates in the regional approach to end chronic homelessness and homeless prevention efforts. This is accomplished through membership in the South Bay Homeless Advocacy Coalition and the Regional Continuum of Care Council (CoC). Both organizations include representation from the County of San Diego, the City of Chula Vista, the Chula Vista Elementary School District and various social service agencies. The City of Chula Vista will utilize Emergency Solutions Grant funds in accordance with guidelines established by the RCCC Steering Committee, as described below: • Leverage existing resources to achieve the program's match and case management requirements; • Coordinate across regional entitlement jurisdictions by utilizing standardized eligibility and assessment tools; • Support federal and local goals for priority populations, including but not limited to veterans, families and other special needs populations; • Allow for variations in the program design that responds to the needs and resources of the jurisdiction; • Comply with new eligibility and verification requirements (HMIS, housing status, habitability standards, homeless definitions, etc.); and • Allow each program to take responsibility for arranging intake, assessment, case management, reporting, and meeting public notice requirements. While services are available to Chula Vista residents, the level of services available is not adequate to meet the needs. With an ESG entitlement of $153,270, and a 15% public services cap of $265,000, there is limited funding to deliver services to all of the groups listed above. Describe the strengths and gaps of the service delivery system for special needs population and persons experiencing homelessness, including, but not limited to, the services listed above There is a variety of services for special needs populations and persons in experiencing homelessness in Chula Vista. However, major gaps in service delivery system exist: • Inadequate funding to provide the level of services needed (ESG Entitlement of $153,270, and 15% public services cap of $265,000); • Lack of coordination among regional efforts; • Prioritizing which population groups to serve with limited resources; and • Lack of sustainable funding sources Strengths include working with the local Regional Continuum of Care to establish coordinated efforts to serve special needs populations and those experiencing homelessness. One of the models that is being used is the Housing First model, where homeless individuals who are high utilizers of public services are provided with housing along with extensive case management and health services. The services usually include mental health services. Strategic Plan 21 01� OF r� CHULAVIST.4 HotJYMI 171111510', 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 174 In addition, the local groups such as Keys to Housing, and the San Diego Housing Federation policy group are just a few key organizations that are working with local governmental entities and non - profits to map out how to best serve these population groups. Provide a summary of the strategy for overcoming gaps in the institutional structure and service delivery system for carrying out a strategy to address priority needs. The City continues to participate in regional planning groups and forums to foster collaboration with other agencies and organizations. Through collaboration, the City identifies common goals and strategies to avoid overlaps in services and programs and identify potential leveraging resources. To help bridge the funding gap, the City allocates the maximum allowable 15 percent of the CDBG funds to support much needed services. In addition, the City proactively pursues funding at the local, State, and Federal funds to leverage CDBG and HOME funds. The extraordinary efforts the City undertook to achieve a Housing Element certification from the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) were intended to maintain the City's eligibility for State housing funds.

The City plans to use CDBG funds for public infrastructure needs in the City's CDBG income qualifying census tracts and to mitigate architectural barriers at City facilities /infrastructure for persons with disabilities. The City will seek gap financing funding to continue to assist in the creation of affordable rental and homeowner housing. The City will also continue to collaborate with the San Diego Regional Alliance for Fair Housing (SDRAAFH) to achieve the goal of equal housing for all.

Estimate the number of extremely low- income, low- income, and moderate - income families to whom the jurisdiction will provide affordable housing as defined by HOME 91.315(b)(2) The number of units and the targeted type of household planned for this Consolidated Plan period are as follows: • Provide rehabilitation assistance to 15 single family homes and 40 mobilehome units; • Provide first time homebuyer assistance to 20 households; and • Expand the City's affordable housing inventory by 230 units through new construction or acquisition with or without rehabilitation. • Provide Tenant Based Rental Assistance to 20 households t1k I !� [in nt CHULAVIST.4 HOUSIV UIVISIO', Strategic Plan 1 24 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 177 Need to Increase the Number of Accessible Units (if Required by a Section 504 Voluntary Compliance Agreement (VCA)) The Housing Authority of the County of San Diego is the lead agency responsible for the public housing units in the City of Chula Vista. The HACSD is not under a VCA. Activities to Increase Resident Involvements The Housing Authority of the County of San Diego ( HACSD) is the lead agency responsible for the public housing units in the City of Chula Vista. As outlined in the HACSD 2015 -19 PHA Plan, FY 2014 -15 update, in order to encourage and increase public housing resident involvement, the HACSD continues to offer scholarships to public housing residents who are attending two- or four -year colleges or vocational training. For the 2013 -14 school year, 11 students were awarded a total of $3,500 in scholarships. In the past five years, the scholarship program has awarded over $25,000 to 38 students. In order to stimulate public housing resident interest and involvement, the HACSD produces monthly public housing resident newsletters. The newsletters publicize important information of interest to the residents, such as ROSS grant programs, activities and achievements. In FY 2012 -13, the HACSD was awarded a $243,000 ROSS Service Coordinator grant. The grant funds a service coordinator to coordinate supportive services and other activities designed to help and encourage the involvement of public housing residents in attaining economic and housing self - sufficiency. The coordinator provides services to residents of the HACSD's 117 rent - restricted public housing units. Services provided, thus far, include assistance in establishing a food delivery program to the senior /disabled complex, disaster preparedness plans, vials of life to record pertinent medical information, resume' building workshops, access to career fairs, community resource guides, resources to provide low cost eyeglasses and assistance with the disability benefits application process. Services were provided to 126 residents in FY 2013 -14. As discussed in the PHA plan, public housing residents are encouraged to join the RAB, which meets several times a year. In FY 2013 -14, 14 public housing and /or HCV program participants attended the October 2013 RAB meeting and nine attended the December 2013 meeting. In FY 2014 -15, according to the draft 2015 PHA Plan annual update, RAB meetings were held in October and December 2014 with a combined total of 39 attendees. RAB meeting topics included the public housing scholarship program, the public housing budget, 2015 Consolidated Plan overview, fair housing, security deposit and homeless assistance, communication barriers for those with limited English proficiency, family self- sufficiency, the ROSS grant, efforts to end homelessness, and the new on -line application portal. Annually, residents are encouraged to attend a Capital Funding and Resident Services meeting. The November 2013 meeting discussed the many services available to residents including: transportation to medical appointments and stores, transportation to domestic violence groups, senior /disabled transportation to special events on weekends, emergency food assistance, employment services, fair housing services, clothing assistance as well as many other services. The _tlR �t " VCfl }'CIF CHULAVISR HOUSING DIVISION Strategic Plan 1 25 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 178 residents were informed about proposed capital improvement activities, educated on the benefits of the joining the ROSS program, asked for input on needed capital improvements, and encouraged to conserve water and make energy efficiency a priority. In November 2014, according to the draft 2015 PHA Plan, discussion topics included the public housing Real Estate Assessment Center (REAC) score of 96 percent, coordinating community services to provide residents with needed resources, the needs of residents, and the monthly newsletter. Is the public housing agency designated as troubled under 24 CFR part 902? The City of Chula Vista does not operate its own public housing agency. The Housing Authority of the County of San Diego ( HACSD) serves as the City's public housing agency. HACSD is not designated as a troubled agency. Plan to remove the 'troubled' designation: Not applicable. tit�l�� Strategic Plan 26 CHULAVIST.4 HOUSIV UIVISIO', 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 179 LACK OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING FUNDS With the dissolution of redevelopment in California, the City of Chula Vista has lost its most powerful tool and funding mechanism to provide affordable housing in the community. Funding at the State and Federal levels has also continued to experience significant cuts. With reduced funding and increased housing costs, the City faces significant challenges in providing affordable and decent housing opportunities for its lower and moderate income residents, especially with extremely low incomes. LAND USE CONTROLS Land use controls take a number of forms that affect the development of residential units. These controls include General Plan policies, zoning designations (and the resulting use restrictions, development standards, and permit processing requirements), development fees and local growth management programs. PARKING REQUIREMENTS Parking requirements do not stain the development of housing directly. However, the costs of parking may increase total development costs. STATE PREVAILING WAGE REQUIREMENTS The State Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) expanded the types of projects that require the payment of prevailing wages. Labor Code Section 1720, which applies prevailing wage rates of public works contracts over 1,000, now defines public works to mean construction, alteration, installation, demolition, or repair work done under contract and paid for in whole in part out of public funds. Prevailing wage adds to the overall costs of development. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION State law (Construction Environmental Quality Act, California Endangered Species Act) and federal law (National Environmental Protection Act, Federal Endangered Species Act), regulations require environmental review of proposed discretionary projects (e.g., subdivision maps, use permits, etc.). Costs resulting from environmental review process are also added to the cost of housing. DAVIS -BACON PREVAILING WAGES A prevailing wage must be paid to laborers when federal funds are used to pay labor costs for any project over $2,000 or on any multi - family rehabilitation project over eight units using CDBG funds and applies to HOME funded projects requiring more than 11 HOME units to be restricted units (based on the City's investment). The prevailing wage requirements are usually higher than competitive wages, raising the costs of housing production and rehabilitation activities. Davis -Bacon also adds to housing costs by requiring documentation of the prevailing wage compliance. These requirements often restrict participation by small minority contractors. _tlR �t " VCfl }'UF CHULAVISTA HOUSING DIVISION Strategic Plan 1 27 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 180 PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT FEES Development fees and taxes charged by local governments also contribute to the costs of housing. Building, zoning, and site improvement fees can significantly add to the costs of construction and have a negative effect on the production of affordable housing. In addition, developers are required to pay local impact fees to local school districts. The City of Chula Vista charges fees to offset the costs associated with permit processing. When compared to other agencies in the region, Chula Vista permitting processing costs are comparable. While development and permit fees may affect overall development budgets, these fees ensure quality development and the provision of adequate public services to the community. The City does offer the deferral and /or waiver of some of its development charges to encourage the development of affordable housing. PERMIT AND PROCESSING PROCEDURES The processing time required to obtain approval of development plans is often cited as a contributing factor to the high cost of housing. For some proposed development projects, additional time is needed to complete the environmental review process before an approval can be granted. Unnecessary delays add to the cost of construction by increasing land holding costs and interest payments. Compared to other California cities, the City of Chula Vista processed entitlements and permits quickly and offers affordable housing developers the opportunity to participate in the City's expedite permit process. PUBLIC OPPOSITION TO AFFORDABLE HOUSING Not- in -My- Back -Yard (NIMBY) is a term used to describe opposition by local residents to construction, typically of affordable housing. Public opposition to affordable housing projects can cause delays in the development review process as concerns are raised. Comments and concerns raised may result in redesign or other costs to the project to mitigate those issues raised with the goal of securing approval of the project through the discretionary permitting process. INFRASTRUCTURE CONSTRAINTS Chula Vista strives to maintain existing infrastructure and meet the future demands. Challenges posed by new development including extending service to unserved areas, keeping pace with construction, and adjusting for changes in designated density. Challenges posed by density increases in older parts of the City including repairing existing deficiencies and maintaining and possible upsizing older infrastructure. STRATEGY TO REMOVE OR AMELIORATE THE BARRIERS TO AFFORDABLE HOUSING The City of Chula Vista works to remove barriers to affordable housing while still protecting the health and safety of its residents by taking actions to reduce costs or providing off - setting financing incentives to assist in the production of safe, high quality, affordable housing. To mitigate the impacts of these barriers the City may: • Apply for State and federal funding to gap finance affordable housing production and rehabilitation of existing affordable housing stock. • Continue to streamline the environmental review process for housing developments, using available state categorical exemptions and federal categorical exclusions, when applicable. Provide training _t�slf " VCfl }'UF CHULAVISTA HOUSING DIVISION Strategic Plan 1 28 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 181 opportunities in the area of CEQA and NEPA as needed so staff gains expertise in the preparation of environmental review documents. • Continue to improve the permit processing and planning approval processes to minimize delay in housing development in general and affordable housing development in particular. • Continue providing rehabilitation assistance and homeownership assistance, and to assist in the construction and preservation of affordable housing. • Encourage public participation when a proposed project is being considered for approval. • Implement policies and strategies identified in the 2013 -2020 Housing Element. Strategic Plan 29 CHUL VISM HOUSIVI UIVISIO', 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 182 Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their individual needs Addressing the emergency and transitional housing needs of homeless persons Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth) make the transition to permanent housing and independent living, including shortening the period of time that individuals and families experience homelessness, facilitating access for homeless individuals and families to affordable housing units, and preventing individuals and families who were recently homeless from becoming homeless again. The City will utilize Emergency Solutions Grant funds in accordance with the guidelines established by the RCCC Steering Committee to assist homeless persons, including those accessing emergency and transitional housing detailed below: • Leverage existing resources to achieve the program's match and case management requirements; • Coordinate across regional entitlement jurisdictions by utilizing standardized eligibility and assessment tools; • Support federal and local goals for priority populations, including but not limited to veterans, families and other special needs populations; • Allow for variations in the program design that responds to the needs and resources of the jurisdiction; • Comply with new eligibility and verification requirements (HMIS, housing status, habitability standards, homeless definitions, etc.); and • Allow each program to take responsibility for arranging intake, assessment, case management, reporting, and meeting public notice requirements. While services are available to Chula Vista residents, the level of services available is not adequate to meet the needs. With an ESG Entitlement of $153,270, and 15% public services cap of $265,000, there is limited funding to deliver services to all of the groups listed above. For homeless services, each Subrecipient Agreement includes goals and objectives to ensure that clients make the transition from being homeless to having a permanent residence. The two social service providers that serve these populations in Chula Vista are South Bay Community Services and Interfaith Shelter Network. The Chula Vista Police Department also provides some level of services to residents who are being discharged from local jail facilities. The South Bay Homeless Advocacy Coalition and the City of Chula Vista may continue to support the Project Homeless Connect in the South San Diego region. This one -day event provides a one -stop shop for homeless individuals and families to access valuable resources such as social service benefits, medical attention, showers, haircuts, flu shots and spiritual guidance. Hygiene packs, socks, t- shirts, undergarments and sweatshirts and food was provided to participants. In 2014/2015, a total of 100 Strategic Plan 30 CHUL VISTA HOUSIV D11,1510', 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 183 persons were assisted with one or more of the provided services. The services were a result of over 100 volunteers from the community, including local government agencies, social service agencies and resident volunteers. We expect to continue to provide this service to connect homeless individuals with services during the 2015 -2019 Consolidated Plan and in this one year 2015 -2016 Annual Action Plan. Additionally, the South Bay Homeless Advocacy Coalition developed the Resource Pocket Guide, which contains a list of all services available, including medical food services and shelter. Help low- income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely low- income individuals and families who are likely to become homeless after being discharged from a publicly funded institution or system of care, or who are receiving assistance from public and private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment, education or youth needs FOSTER CARE The County of San Diego's Foster Care System discharge planning protocol is in development and includes the following information and /or steps: • Written information about the youth's dependency case, including family and placement histories and the whereabouts of any siblings who are under the jurisdiction of the juvenile court; • Anticipated termination date of court jurisdiction; • Health plans (if not already covered by Medi -Cal); • Legal document portfolio that includes: Social Security Card, Certified Birth Certificate, Driver's License and /or DMV identification card, copies of parent(s) death certificate(s), and proof of citizenship /residence status; • Housing plans including referral to transitional housing or assistance in securing other housing; • Employment or other financial support plans; and, • Educational /vocational plans including financial aid, where appropriate. HEALTH CARE The County of San Diego Health and Human Services Agency contracted with the Abaris Group (a trauma, emergency and medical services consultants group) to research the access to health, mental health and substance abuse services in six regions throughout the County. Included in the study was a special focus on the healthcare, mental health and substance abuse treatment needs of homeless persons. The final Healthcare Safety Net Study Core Report was released in September 2006, including recommendations for public policy administration. In addition, the San Diego County Health and Human Services Agency's Departments of Mental Health, Environmental Health, Drug and Alcohol Services and Aging and Independence Services, in collaboration with private entities and the City of San Diego, organized in 2006 to improve the structural approach for prevention and response to the to the health care needs of homeless persons. MENTAL HEALTH tit�l�� Strategic Plan 31 CHUL VISTA HOUSIV D11,1510', 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 184 The mental health care system in San Diego County has formalized plans and protocol for low income and no income individuals. At the present time, homeless persons are eligible for a series of services through referral on release from inpatient or emergency medical facilities. After release, access to service information remains available through the San Diego Center and the Network of Care Program. Services include: • Health Insurance Counseling and Advocacy Program (HICAP) • NeedyMeds Program; and • Mobile Units that provide access to care in remote locations. The Network of Care Program offers specific information for homeless persons. The Center reduces barriers to care by providing information in seven languages. Resources are updated through the United Way 2 -1 -1 San Diego social service line to ensure regular updates. Funding from the State of California Mental Health Services Act has enabled the County of San Diego to implement the approved plan and protocol for housing and services of homeless mentally ill persons, frequent users of emergency health care and persons with mental health issues exiting correctional facilities. CORRECTIONS Services and discharge planning for individuals released from County correctional facilities are found in the Public Information Handbook prepared by the San Diego (SD) County Sheriff's Department. Services are summarized in the SD County Sheriff's Health & Mental Health Services Discharge Plan —form J266. The SD County Sheriff's Department has designated staff positions as homeless liaisons, mental health specialists, and an American with Disabilities Coordinator to assist with individual discharge plans for inmates who have received health or mental health services while in custody. The Mental health Psychiatric Security units of the jail (licensed by the State Department of Mental Health) operate under the purview of the state level discharge plan. A multi - disciplinary team working with the homeless provides discharge plans and case management to ensure continuity of care upon release. Please note that this section addresses local jails and not state or federal prisons. tit�l�� Strategic Plan 32 CHULAVIST.4 HOUSIV UIVISIO', 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 185 Actions to address LBP hazards and increase access to housing without LBP hazards The City of Chula Vista has a two - tiered approach to the evaluation and elimination of lead -based paint hazards where the problem has been determined to be most prevalent. The County of San Diego's lead - based paint hazard evaluation program, known as the Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Program (CLPPP), involves outreach, screening, case management, and public education. The overall lead poisoning program is administered through the County of San Diego, Department of Health Services (DHS). The City of Chula Vista also has in place a loan /grant program to assist homeowners alleviate lead -based paint hazards through the Community Housing Improvement Program (CHIP). The City utilizes Community Development Block Grant funds for this purpose. As part of the City's HOME - First -time Homebuyers Program, HOME - Tenant Based Rental Assistance Program, and CDBG - Residential Rehabilitation Program, lead -based paint hazard evaluation and remediation is incorporated into these programs as follows: Owners are provided with information regarding: 1) Sources of LBP, 2) Hazards and Symptoms, 3) Blood Lead Level Screening, 4) Precautions, 5) Maintenance and Treatment of LBP Hazards, 6) Tenant and Homebuyer responsibilities prior to rehabilitation loan /grant approval, the homeowner read and sign a copy of information received. In addition, the City's Development Services Building and Housing staff or the City's First Time Homebuyer administrator checks for signs of LBP for properties being assisted, and abatement should occur based on federal guidelines pertaining to the amount of assistance given. The City will also pursue a Lead Hazard Protection grant funds that are available. The Environmental Health Coalition is supportive of The City's interest in obtaining grant funds. How are the actions listed above related to the extent of lead poisoning and hazards? Please see description above. How are the actions listed above integrated into housing policies and procedures? CDBG and HOME programs require compliance with all of HUD's regulations concerning lead -based paint. All housing programs operated by the City are in compliance with HUD's most recent standards regarding lead -based paint. The City's homeowner rehabilitation loan program meets the federal requirements for providing lead -based paint information with each rehabilitation loan and requiring paint testing of disturbed surfaces for lead in all single family homes constructed before 1978. If a home was found to have lead -based paint, the cost of lead -based paint removal is an eligible activity under the homeowner rehabilitation program. City building inspectors are alert to any housing units that apply for a permit for construction or remodeling, which may contain lead -based paint and other lead hazards. The County of San Diego's Childhood Lead Poising Prevention Program (CLPPP), a division of the San Diego Health and Human Services Agency provides outreach and education programs and case management services for San Diego County residents, including Chula Vista residents. Strategic Plan 33 CHULAVISM HOUSIM D11,1510', 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 186 Jurisdiction Goals, Programs and Policies for reducing the number of Poverty -Level Families How are the Jurisdiction's poverty reducing goals, programs, and policies coordinated with this affordable housing plan. Anti - Poverty Strategy: It is the City of Chula Vista's goal is to utilize 100% of its entitlement grants to assist low /moderate income residents break the cycle of poverty through supporting social service programs. Many of the programs include multi- service programs to assist low income families back into the main stream. They include help with job readiness, educational training, counseling, child care, food clothing, housing assistance and a host of other service to help families and individuals escape the cycle of poverty. Following is a sample of the organizations the City partnered with for the 2015/2016 program year: • Chula Vista Community Collaborative to provide case management and referral services; • Family Health Centers of San Diego to provide mobile medical services at various elementary schools located in low income census tracts; • Interfaith Shelter Network to provide rotational shelter and case management during the cold winter months; • Meals -on- Wheels to provide daily hot meal delivery to seniors in need; • San Diego Food Bank which delivers weekly backpack with food to children who are at risk of experiencing hunger through the weekend. • South Bay Community Services (SBCS) is made up of three distinct departments and has a staff of over 250 that serve more than 50,000 individuals and families annually in South San Diego County. Approximately, 15 percent of Chula Vista residents live below the poverty level according to the U.S. Census data from 2008 -2012 (http: / /www .city- data.com /poverty /poverty- Chula- Vista - California.html). Unfortunately, solving the problem of poverty involves a number of economic, social, institutional and policy issues that are well beyond the City's jurisdiction. Promoting community development with the City's Capital Improvement Projects and increasing the amount of affordable housing available for households in the lowest income brackets (0 -30% of Area Median Income) are the City's programs to help alleviate poverty. The City will continue to explore the possibility of funding economic development activities using CDBG funds. This may alleviate poverty in the city by providing microenterprise loans to businesses located in CDBG qualifying areas. Microenterprise loans can help alleviate poverty by introducing new opportunities to create work, income and assets for low income residents since these businesses will be located in a CDBG qualifying area and are typically owned by low- income entrepreneurs and employ low income residents of the neighborhood. The City's antipoverty strategy of providing safe, affordable housing will assist in reducing the number of poverty level families in Chula Vista based on the following. By providing safe, affordable housing for those on a limited income, those families will be able to live in an environment were no more than 30% Strategic Plan 34 CHUL VISTA HOUSIV D11,1510', 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 187 of their limited income is spent on housing. In addition, the City requires that affordable housing developments provide programs (e.g. after school, computer labs, budgeting and language classes) to assist residents in excelling in both school and the work environment. These affordable housing developments thus assist families in moving up the economic ladder by providing the tools that add in their success. Describe the standards and procedures that the jurisdiction will use to monitor activities carried out in furtherance of the plan and will use to ensure long -term compliance with requirements of the programs involved, including minority business outreach and the comprehensive planning requirements MONITORING PUBLIC SERVICES ACTIVITIES (INCLUDING EMERGENCY SOLUTIONS GRANT): Monitoring for the City of Chula Vista is directed toward programmatic, financial and regulatory performance. The primary objects are to ensure that all sub - recipients: • Comply with pertinent regulations governing their administrative, financial, programmatic operations; • Achieve their performance objectives within schedule and budget; and, • Access capabilities and /or any potential needs for training or technical assistance in these areas. Careful evaluation of the housing and public service delivery system can be the most effective tool in detecting gaps and making appropriate modifications. As such, the City of Chula Vista monitors and evaluates its sub - recipients and CBDO's as part of the pre -award assessment. Evaluation of the nature of the activity, proposed plan for carrying out the activity, the organization's capacity to do the work, and the possibility of potential conflicts of interest are within the pre -award assessment. After awards have been made Quarterly Progress reports are required of each sub - recipient, which must be current prior to approval of any request for reimbursement of expenditures. In addition to the Quarterly Progress reports, annual monitoring is conducted to ensure compliance with federal regulations. Agreements made with sub - recipients encourage uniform reporting to achieve consistent information on beneficiaries. Technical assistance is provided throughout the year, in addition to the City's annual Subrecipient training for new applicants. Subrecipients are monitored annually, with an onsite visit every other year and a desk audit annually, at a minimum. MONITORING CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS (CDBG): During FY 2015 -2016, the City of Chula Vista will hold quarterly meetings with internal staff to ensure CDBG Program requirements are being met including program performance, monitoring, program income tracking, and to meet the CDBG 70% annual benefit test and expenditure standard by the deadline of April 30, 2016. The CDBG regulations require that at least 70% of annual expenditures benefit lower- income people. City sponsored projects are monitoring by program staff. _t�slf " V«rte CHULAVISTA HOUSING DIVISION Strategic Plan 1 35 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 188 MONITORING AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROJECTS& PROGRAMS (ACQUISITION, ACQUISITION REHABILITATION, REHABILITATION, NEW CONSTRUCTION, TENANT BASED RENTAL ASSISTANCE): For the City's affordable housing projects, the City conducts regular ongoing site visits, as well as an annual occupancy monitoring program of the government- funded programs to ensure compliance with program goals and applicable regulatory agreements. Property inspections are required and conducted as prescribed by HUD. Properties are closely monitored beginning at the time funds are committed to the completion of construction or rehabilitation, with monitoring that will follow in subsequent years. The Development Services Housing Division and Code Enforcement Division maintain an affordable housing inspection program that ensures that a representative percentage of its deed - restricted affordable units are inspected along with the common areas of the affordable housing communities. Owner Occupied Rehabilitation Loans and First Time Homebuyer Program are monitored for continued occupancy by occupancy certification mailed to each borrower and the use of computer matching records such as Property Tax rolls, Homeowner exemption filing, and Property Insurance verification. Minority Business OUTREACH By policy, the City prohibits discrimination against any person in pursuit of business opportunities on the basis of race, color, national origin, religion, sex, age, disability or veteran status. It is also City policy to provide minorities, women, and small businesses equal opportunity for participating in all aspects of the City's contracting and procurement programs, including but not limited to construction, development projects, procurement, professional services and lease agreements. In support of this, the City includes equal opportunity language in its requests for contracting opportunities. Additionally, Development Services will carry out the following activities to ensure the inclusion, to the maximum extent possible, of minorities and women in all contracting activities entered into by the City to facilitate the provision of affordable housing under the National Affordable Housing Act or any other applicable federal housing law: • Maintenance of a bid registry which includes minority- and woman -owned business enterprises (M /WBE) participating in the housing rehabilitation program. • Property owners are encouraged to select a contractor on their own and obtain bids for the rehabilitation work from contractors on the City's bid solicitation list. City encourages M /WBE to apply to be on the City's contractor list. • All general contractors are encouraged to utilize M /WBE subcontracts and to take affirmative steps to do so. Provisions describing appropriate actions are made a part of each construction agreement. • The City continually seeks to increase the total number of qualified M /WBEs on the bid solicitation list. • Development Services Department provides informational materials in bid packages about housing and development related contracting opportunities for M /WBEs. �ts�r Cfl }'UF CHULAVISTA HOUSING DIVISION Strategic Plan 1 36 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 189 • The City will place a notice in the Star News describing the availability of contracting opportunities, as needed, to encourage contracting opportunities/ for M /WBEs. • Notices of announcements for HOME and other housing related activities will be sent to appropriate community, trade, and nonprofit organizations throughout San Diego County when formal advertising is required. • The City of Chula Vista Development Services Division will participate in and /or conduct M /WBEs business opportunity - related meetings and seminars upon request. • CDBG Coordinator will maintain HUD -2516 records and steps taken to implement outreach activities to minority -owned and female -owned businesses including data on racial /ethnic or gender character of each business entity receiving a contract or subcontract of $10,000 or more paid, or to be paid, with CDBG or HOME funds; the amount of the contract or subcontract, and documentation of affirmative steps to assure that minority business and women's business enterprises have as equal opportunity to obtain or compete for contracts and subcontracts as sources of supplies, equipment, construction, and services.

The five -year Consolidated Plan includes a needs assessment, market analysis, and identification of priority needs and long -term strategies. An Annual Action Plan implements the strategies and provides a basis for allocating Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), Home Investment Partnerships Act (HOME), and Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) resources. This document represents the City of Chula Vista's program year 2015 -16 CDBG Action Plan. It identifies the goals and programming of funds for activities to be undertaken in the first year of the five -year Consolidated Plan. Summarize the objectives and outcomes identified in the Plan During the formulation of the Consolidated Plan, the City of Chula Vista conducted a needs assessment and market analysis to inform the process on the community's needs. Community input obtained through public hearings, public meetings and consultation with local stakeholders helped establish Chula Vista's priority needs and develop long -term goals and strategies. Through the process, an overall focus for CDBG activities will be assistance to the most vulnerable population, households with incomes below 50% of median income and persons with disabilities. 41,4 Annual Plan 1 CHULAVI51A HOUSING DIVISION 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 193 The following are the goals for the first year of the Consolidated Plan. Table 1. Housing and Community Development Goals Evaluation of past performance Each program year of the Consolidated Plan period, the City must submit to HUD, a Consolidated Annual Performance and Review Report (CAPER) with detailed information on progress towards the priorities, goals and objectives outlined in the Consolidated Plan. HUD conducts an annual program assessment and provides feedback on the City's use of CDBG, HOME and ESG funds. For Program Years 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 HUD has determined that the overall performance of the City's CDBG program was satisfactory. HUD stated, "the City has addressed most strategic program goals and objectives which give context and meaning to annual and cumulative accomplishments. All major program requirements are in compliance with regulatory requirements. " The City has consistently complied with the CDBG regulation regarding timeliness. 24 CFR 570.902 (a) states, a grantee may not have more than 1.5 times the entitlement grant amount for the current year remaining undisbursed from the U.S. Treasury 60 days prior to the end of the grantee's current program year. Summary of Citizen Participation Process and consultation process During the consolidated planning process, the City implemented a process for obtaining input from citizens through public hearings, public meetings, and an on -line survey to identify the needs and long- term goals and strategies for use of the federal funds. In drafting the 2015/16 Annual Action Plan, contact was made with representatives of local social service agencies which serve LMI clients to see what types of activities they considered a priority for the community they served. In addition, an advertisement was placed in the local newspaper of general circulation which solicited proposals for 2015/16 CDBG, HOME and ESG projects. Once activities were selected for programming, another advertisement was published to announce the public hearing date and solicited comments during the 30 -day public comment period on the proposed projects to be funded.

" The City has consistently complied with the CDBG regulation regarding timeliness. 24 CFR 570.902 (a) states, a grantee may not have more than 1.5 times the entitlement grant amount for the current year remaining undisbursed from the U.S. Treasury 60 days prior to the end of the grantee's current program year. Summary of Citizen Participation Process and consultation process During the consolidated planning process, the City implemented a process for obtaining input from citizens through public hearings, public meetings, and an on -line survey to identify the needs and long- term goals and strategies for use of the federal funds. In drafting the 2015/16 Annual Action Plan, contact was made with representatives of local social service agencies which serve LMI clients to see what types of activities they considered a priority for the community they served. In addition, an advertisement was placed in the local newspaper of general circulation which solicited proposals for 2015/16 CDBG, HOME and ESG projects. Once activities were selected for programming, another advertisement was published to announce the public hearing date and solicited comments during the 30 -day public comment period on the proposed projects to be funded. A public hearing was 41,4 Annual Plan 2 CHULAV151A HOUSINNCDIVISION 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 194 held before the Chula Vista City Council at its regularly televised meeting on April 21, 2015, and public comment on the plan was again invited.

Provide a concise summary of the jurisdiction's activities to enhance coordination between public and assisted housing providers and private and governmental health, mental health and service agencies (91.215(1)) In the process of developing the 2015 -2019 Consolidated Plan, the City consulted with community members and representatives from a number of local organizations providing housing and services to low and moderate income households. In addition to public meetings, a survey containing the City's funding goals and objectives was distributed. Many of the social service providers noted a continued need for funding sources for additional social services and public service programs; however, no more than 15% of a CDBG award may be used for funding public services. 44 Annual Plan 4 (M Of CHULAVISfA HOUSING DIVISION 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 196 Throughout the year, Chula Vista staff meets with other representatives of various non - profit, public, and private agencies that serve the needs of the homeless, persons at risk of homelessness, persons with mental health conditions, the disabled, and other low- to moderate - income persons.

The City of Chula Vista does not receive Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS ( HOPWA) programs. Please refer to the County of San Diego (www.sdhcd.com) and City of San Diego (www.sandiego.gov) Annual Action Plans for more details on the goals and distribution of HOPWA funds. In recent years, the levels of entitlement funds received from HUD for CDBG, HOME, and ESG have been primarily trending downward. In estimating the amounts of funding available over this Consolidated Plan period, the City is taking a conservative approach and assuming an annual five percent reduction. For program income, the City does not anticipate a steady stream of program income over the course of this Consolidated Plan. During the last five years, the level of program income received varied widely from $50 to $25,000. Program income received from the repayment of rehabilitation loans (CDBG and HOME), First Time Homebuyer loan, and residual receipt payments will be automatically re- programmed for loan activities in those same or similar programs from which the funds were originally provided to the greatest extent possible. If additional program income funds are received that are not automatically re- programmed, specific projects will be identified during the mid -year re- allocation process or Annual Action Plan. 41,4 Annual Plan 9 CHULAVISTA HOUSING DIVISION 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 201 Table 4.

To address the priority needs and specific objectives in the 2015 -2019 Consolidated Plan, non - profit, for profit and non - profit developers, or residents may apply for and receive the following federal and state funds: • Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program • Low Income Housing Tax Credits • Community Development Block Grant funds • Emergency Solutions Grant Funds (Federal and State) • Home Investment Partnership Act funds • Public Housing Assistance • McKinney -Vento funds • Private funds As of February 2015, 3,224 households are currently being assisted with Section 8 funds. The City does not receive a direct allocation of McKinney -Vento Act funds. However, South Bay Community Services currently receives these funds to assist Chula Vista residents with transitional housing. The City of Chula Vista has relied heavily on the use of LIHTC to leverage funds from private developers to build affordable housing in the City. Since 1993, the City has 18 properties that were awarded LIHTC for a total production of 1,846 low- income units. In 2014, Lofts on Landis received 9% LIHTC. This project is under construction and scheduled to be completed in the Fall of 2015. The City will continue to support applications to the California tax Credit Allocation Committee for projects that benefit Chula Vista residents.

This may severely impact the ability to complete certain types of affordable housing development projects within the City of Chula Vista. The new funding regulations state that before the City can commit its HOME funds, the project Sponsor or Developer must obtain funding commitments from all of the other funding sources before the City is allow to count those funding commitments in meet HUD's timeliness deadline. The City of Chula Vista will continue to work with Sponsors and Developers to ensure that the City's ability to provide funding to support the development of affordable rental housing is not impacted by this new rule. The new rule does not affect the City's ability to fund smaller projects that do not rely on substantial private and State funding sources such as Low Income Housing Tax Credits and Tax Exempt Bond financing projects. The new rule also does not impact the City's ability to fund a Tenant Based Rental Assistance Program. The City of Chula Vista has successfully leveraged funds from federal, state, local and private resources to complete several Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) and affordable housing developments in the City's low income communities. The most recent CIP project with leveraged funds is the Third Avenue Streetscape Project. The most recent affordable housing development with leveraged funds, Lofts on Landis, is scheduled to be completed in the Fall of 2015. This development used LIHTC, private financing to construct 33 affordable units. If appropriate, describe publically owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that may be used to address the needs identified in the plan The City as Successor Housing Agency to the former Redevelopment Agency (RDA), has a number of vacant properties that may be used to support additional economic development activity within the City of Chula Vista. A developer may propose a mixed use project that includes an affordable housing component. However, at the time of this report, the City's Successor Agency (former Redevelopment Agency) is working on its Long Range Planning goals for the use of these properties. If the properties were purchased using Low and Moderate Income Housing funds and under the control of the Chula Vista Housing Authority, acting as the Successor Housing Agency, then there is already a requirement that the resale of these properties must be used to further the goals of the City in the development of additional affordable housing units.

Federal funds are used to serve the target community, meet the established goals for these funds, and to serve the greatest number of members of the community. The City will use its existing HOME Investment Partnership funds to provide First Time Homebuyer assistance, Acquisition and Rehabilitation of existing housing stock for affordable housing, preservation of affordable housing, and new construction of affordable housing. For public services, the City utilizes CDBG funds. CDBG regulations, limit the amount the City can spend on public services and is capped at 15% of the City's annual entitlement (currently at $255,000). The City provides funding to non - profit organizations that demonstrate an ability to provide needed services that directly benefit the residents of the Chula Vista. The use of the City of Chula Vista CDBG funds for public services enables non - profit organization and City Departments to leverage these funds with other funding sources for projects and activities that serve the greatest number of residents with the limited amount of funding.

For community -wide activities, income verification is used to ensure low -to moderate - income beneficiary levels. Investments in public facilities, including capital improvement projects, and services serving special needs populations and primarily low and moderate income persons can be made throughout the City so long as the activity meets a HUD National objective and there is demonstrated significant benefit to low and moderate income persons. The general basis used for prioritizing investments includes the total number of residents benefited, the urgent need of a given community within the City, environment issues that threaten life or property, the need for improved access, and other important needs of the community as a whole. For public services, the City utilizes 15 percent of its Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) allocation to provide small grants to non - profit organizations that demonstrate an ability to provide needed services that directly benefit the low and moderate income residents of the City of Chula Vista. By directing public service funds as grants to these non - profits, the City is able to leverage its CDBG funds for projects and activities that serve the greatest number of residents with this limited amount of funding. Housing assistance will be available to income - qualified households. Due to aging housing stock in Northwest and Southwest Chula Vista, priority will be given to those households who wish to participate in owner occupied residential rehabilitation programs to maintain safe housing and for revitalization of neighborhoods. New construction of affordable housing will likely occur in East Chula Vista with its available undeveloped land and to provide for a more diverse and varied housing stock in the area. The City has a detailed list of approved Capital Improvement Projects that demonstrate a general public need but, due to budget constraints, funding may not be available for those smaller projects. Priority for allocating CDBG funding is given to capital improvement projects located within an approved HUD qualifying census tract and /or census block group. Capital Improvement Project priorities are assigned based on a number of factors including: the total number of residents benefited; areas of other projects; phase of improvement project; needs assessment results; and budget prioritization of Capital Improvement Projects, assuming the project is within a qualifying census tract. Priorities for CIP projects are addressed by the City Council and the budget for the City during each fiscal year (July 1 to June 30). The City of Chula Vista primarily utilizes the available CDBG funds for repayment of a Section 108 loan payment. However, approximately $350,000 remains to fund Capital Improvement Projects (CIPS) for meeting HUD's Performance Measurement objectives of creating a suitable living environments for its residents and meeting HUD's outcome measures that provides increased availability /accessibility to residents. CDBG funds may also be used to address HUD's Decent Housing objective (servicing clients who earn less than 80% of the Area Median Income) by providing rehabilitation loans or grants to assist owner occupants of single family homes or mobile homes that are built prior to 1980 that are primarily in Western Chula Vista. 4 kl e AP 31 4 .�- CHULAVIST.4 HOUSING ❑IVISIO', 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 225 Introduction The Production of New Affordable Housing Units - Funding Commitment able One Year Goals for the Nu Rehab of Existing Units - Single Family Homes and /or Mobilehomes Homeless 109 Casa Nueva Vida (90 clients), and Interfaith Shelter Network (12), ESG Rapid Re- Housing (7) Total Non - Homeless 10 Special -Needs 0 Total 119 Tenant Based Rental Assistance 10 The Production of New Affordable Housing Units - Funding Commitment 87 Rehab of Existing Units - Single Family Homes and /or Mobilehomes 10 Acquisition of Existing Units - Purchase an additional property using NSP funds 1 Total 206 Discussion The loss of the Chula Vista Redevelopment Agency has significantly impaired the production of affordable housing in the City of Chula Vista.

DISCUSSION: The City of Chula Vista works to remove barriers to affordable housing and the financial impacts of efforts to protect public health and safety by taking actions to reduce the costs or provide off - setting financial incentives to assist in the production of safe, high quality, affordable housing. For FY 2015 -2016, the City plans to allocate approximately $800,000 towards the production of affordable housing for continuing authorized housing activities including the HOME - funded New Construction of affordable rental housing. In the past, the City has used HOME funds for the production of affordable housing, first time homebuyer program and tenant based rental assistance. The City will support developers for the creation of affordable rental housing, and residents who seek funding opportunities to become first time homebuyers. The following measures may be taken to alleviate the barriers to affordable housing: • Apply for State and federal funding to gap finance affordable housing production and rehabilitation of existing affordable housing stock. ;4 EI AP 36 (Ll ) (f. CHULAVIS -k HOUSING DIVISION 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 230 • Continue to support applications for Tax Exempt Bond financing from the California Debt Limit Allocation Committee. • Continue to support applications for Low - Income Housing Tax Credits from the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee. • Continue to streamline the environmental review process for housing developments, using available state categorical exemptions and federal categorical exclusions, when applicable. Also, send staff to CEQA and NEPA trainings as needed to gain expertise in the preparation of environmental review documents. • Continue to apply for State funding to assist First Time Homebuyers. • Continue to improve the permit processing and planning approval processes to minimize delay in housing development in general and affordable housing development in particular. • Continue providing rehabilitation assistance and homeownership assistance, and to assist in the construction and preservation of affordable housing. • Encourage public participation when a proposed project is being considered for approval. • Implement policies and strategies identified in the 2013 -2020 Housing Element. 4 kl.�e APIPage37 :. -'"."%- - CHULAVIST.4 HOUSIN''G DIVISIO', 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 231 INTRODUCTION: HUD requires that cities receiving block grant funds take actions to affirmatively further fair housing choice. Fair housing choice is achieved by ensuring that persons are not denied housing opportunity because of their race, ethnic origin, religion, disability, or familial status (family with children). Cities report on the progress of affirmatively furthering fair house choice by completing an Analysis of Impediments (AI). The Al is a review of the nature and extent of impediments to fair housing choice in the San Diego County and the City of Chula Vista. The last two Als have been produced in collaboration with the San Diego Regional Alliance for Fair Housing ( SDRAFH), formerly known as the Fair Housing Resources Board (FHRB). The SDRAFH is a dedicated group of professionals who work together to ensure that all residents in San Diego County have equal access to housing. It is comprised of members of the fair housing community, local jurisdictions, enforcement agencies and housing providers. This group leverages the region's CDBG funds to produce the Al for the region. The SD RAFH completed an Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI) for the period of 2010 through 2015. The City of Chula Vista is an active member of the San Diego Regional Alliance for Fair Housing and serves as the member of the Steering Committee. The City of Chula Vista affirmatively furthers fair housing by contracting for the provision of fair housing services and conducting fair housing testing to detect any fair housing violations. The services include education and outreach to residents and housing providers, assistance with submitting fair housing complaints to HUD, legal services, and tenant /landlord mediation. The City has also entered into a contract for non - complaint based testing to determine if housing providers are engaging in discriminatory practices in violation of federal and state fair housing laws. The City continues to work collaboratively with local jurisdictions who serve on the Fair Housing Resources Board and our fair housing provider to overcome the impediments identified in the 2010- 2015 Regional San Diego Analysis to Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI). City staff also provides technical support to the SDRAFH by serving as a member. Below are the impediments that were part of the 2015 update to the San Diego Regional Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice. Various land use policies, zoning provisions, and development regulations may affect the range of housing choice available. ■ Recent Changes to Density Bonus Law: The City of Chula Vista is required to amend its zoning ordinance(s) to reflect SB 1818 requirements of Density Bonus law that are effective January 1, 2015 (AB 2222) regarding replacement requirements and extended affordability covenant to 55 years. City response: The City is aware of the update and plans to submit an update its Zoning Ordinance by 2016. ■ Large Residential Care Facilities (for Seven or More Persons): The zoning ordinance of Chula Vista does not contain provisions for larger residential care facilities. 4 kl e AP 38 r4 .�- CHULAVIST.4 HOUSING ❑IVIS10', 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 232 City response: The City is aware of the zoning requirement and plans to update its Zoning Ordinance by 2016. The City of Chula Vista has recently approved the following Residential Care Facilities: • St. Paul's Plaza at Otay Ranch (built in 2015) • Westmount at San Miguel Ranch (built in 2014) • ActiveCare at Rolling Hills Rach (built in 2013) ■ Emergency Shelters: the City of Chula Vista does not have adequate provisions for emergency shelters in its zoning ordinances. City Response: The City is aware of the zoning requirement and plans to update its Zoning Ordinance by the end of 2015. As required by Housing Element law, the City is required to update its zoning ordinance. ■ Transitional and Supportive Housing: Chula Vista does not have zoning ordinances that permit transitional and supportive housing consistent with the requirements of SIB 2. City response: The City of Chula Vista anticipates completing this update by 2016. ■ Farmworker Housing /Employee Housing: Most jurisdictions in San Diego have no provisions for farmworker or employee housing in their zoning ordinances. City response: The last parcel of farmland was sold in 2014. Farmworkers can apply for the Brisa del Mar affordable housing project that has units set aside for Farmworker's. The City is proud to report that it has eliminated a few of the impediments to fair housing choice as stated in previous Als due to the 2015 update. Some of the impediments are carried over to the 2010- 2015 Al, but primarily are planning functions /administrative actions and are tied to Housing Element Law and /or State Legislation. The City has been working on addressing these impediments since they were identified in 2010. The City expects to eliminate these impediments by 2017. The City will continue to affirmatively further fair housing using its CDBG Administration funds (subject to HUD's funding cap) through the following approaches: • Continue to participate in the regional San Diego Regional Alliance for Fair Housing (SD RAFFH) and continue address the 2010 and 2015 update to the San Diego Regional Analysis of Impediments (AI) to Fair Housing Choice; • Provide content updates for the San Diego Regional Alliance for Fair Housing website; • Conduct non - complaint based testing to determine if housing providers are engaging in discriminatory practices in violation of federal and state fair housing laws; • Provide assistance to tenants in completing and submitting HUD fair housing complaint forms • Sponsor public awareness and education programs, including Fair Housing Month in April; • Distribution of fair housing material in English and Spanish at City offices and community resource centers; 4 kl e AP 39 r4 CHULAVIST.4 HOUSING ❑IVIS10', 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 233 • Educate landlords and property managers through training workshops; • Distribute fair housing pamphlets in Spanish and English to tenants and landlords, and make these materials available for general distribution at City facilities, the community resource centers located in low- income neighborhoods, and at The City's mobilehome parks that are covered by The City's Rent Review ordinance; and • Promote fair housing choice on The City's website. Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs The primary obstacle in meeting the underserved needs is the continued lack of available funding for community development and housing activities, including public services and other programs. Given the federal budget and drastic state budget cuts, local jurisdictions like Chula Vista and the County of San Diego, are being forced to cut social service programs. In Southern California, the continued high cost of living, housing costs for both rental and ownership, and the reduction of funds all combine to create a major obstacle in providing affordable housing that is truly affordable. The City is eager to work more closely with social service providers in order to combine efforts to ensure that the available federal -funds are being used in the most effective way possible. The Chula Vista Community Collaborate continues to hold its City quarterly social service provider meetings in Chula Vista to facilitate networking for solutions to the underserved needs. Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing The City has two programs to foster and maintain affordable housing; the Balanced Communities Policy and the affordable housing inspection program. The Balanced Communities Policy fosters the development of affordable housing in that it requires all developers of new for -sale housing units to either provide 10% of those units at affordable prices, or pay a housing in -lieu fee to the City. The Developers also have the option of building affordable rental housing. The City's inspection program insures that the City's 2,000+ units of affordable rental housing are maintained in a clean and safe condition and that the incomes of those families living in the different sections of the City have been verified as meeting the limits required by the funding source that help build the units. Actions planned to reduce lead -based paint hazards The City will continue to inform residents applying for loans or grants through its First Time Homebuyer Program and Rehabilitation program about the hazards of lead -based paint. Code Enforcement and building inspectors will continue to identify lead -based paint hazards as part of their ongoing activities, if the scope of the complaint allows them into the unit, or if it is part of an on -going investigation. CDBG and HOME programs require compliance with all of HUD's regulations concerning lead -based paint. All housing programs operated by the City are in compliance with HUD's most recent standards regarding lead -based paint. • City's First -Time Homebuyer Program, lead abatement disclosure is the responsibility of the seller, and the City will not participate in any homebuyer assistance if the seller refuses to abate known lead hazards. Each homebuyer is required to obtain an independent third party inspection report. 4 kl e AP 40 4 .�- CHULAVIST.4 HOUSING ❑IVIS10', 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 234 • City's Homeowner Rehabilitation Loan Program meets the federal requirements for providing lead - based paint information with each rehabilitation loan and requiring paint testing of disturbed surfaces for lead in all single family homes constructed before 1978. If a home was found to have lead -based paint, the cost of lead -based paint removal is an eligible activity under the homeowner rehabilitation program. City building inspectors are alerted to any housing units that apply for a permit for construction or remodeling, which may contain lead -based paint and other lead hazards. • The City of Chula Vista will work closely, if needed, with the County of San Diego's Childhood Lead Poising Prevention Program (CLPPP), a division of the San Diego Health and Human Services Agency. The CLPPP provides outreach and education programs and case management services for San Diego County residents, including Chula Vista residents. • City's Acquisition Rehabilitation Program and Homeowner Rehabilitation Loan Program guidelines describe the level of abatement that is needed if lead hazards are present. LEAD BASED PAINT REQUIREMENTS AFFORDABLE HOUSING DEVELOPERS Each Developer of affordable rental housing must ensure that all housing constructed, redeveloped, rehabilitated, or acquired with HOME and or CDBG funds must comply with applicable provisions of Lead -Based Paint Poisoning Prevention Act (42 U.S.C. 4821 - 4846), the Residential Lead -Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act of 1992 (42 U.S.C. 4851 - 4856), and implementing regulations at 24 CFR part 35, subparts A, B, J, K, M and R upon completion of the development. The chart below summarizes the requirement based on the amount of HOME funds subsidizing each HOME - assisted unit. Table 12.

By providing safe, affordable housing for those on a limited income, those families will be able to live in an environment were no more than 30% of their limited income is spent on housing. In addition, Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) funding requires affordable housing developments provide programs (e.g. after school, computer labs, budgeting and language classes) to assist residents in excelling in both school and the work environment. These affordable housing developments thus assist families in moving up the economic ladder by providing the tools that add in their success. LIHTC continues to be the most important source for leveraging the City's HOME, and CDBG funds for affordable housing development projects. The City is also researching using CDBG funds for economic development during this Consolidated Plan period and will continue to seek funding opportunities including HUD's Economic Development Partnerships. Actions planned to develop institutional structure Developing institutional and enhancing coordination between public and private agencies: The City of Chula Vista is a member of two key organizations which rely heavily on public and private coordination in the region to address the needs of the low income community members. The Chula Vista Community Collaborative is collaboration among partners and stakeholders in Chula Vista which include; Residents and Parents; Schools and School District Staff; Social Service /Non - profit Agencies; Local Government; Faith -based Community; Health Professionals; and, Business Owners. Together, the Collaborative works to develop coordinated strategies and systems that protect the health, safety, and wellness of its residents as well as share information and resources that strengthen families and communities. Regular meetings are held with the goal of obtaining and sharing information about services, resources, employment and training opportunities, as well as any events accessible to the Chula Vista community. The meetings are a useful venue to network and efficiently coordinate activities with partnering agencies. The City of Chula Vista is also a member of the South Bay Homeless Advocacy Coalition which was formed to address the growing concern for homelessness and the lack of resources available. The goal is to educate the community on these issues and advocate for change to better serve homeless and near homeless families and individuals in our community. The Coalition is comprised of representatives from local government agencies, the school districts, social service agencies, faith based organizations and citizens. Although the City of Chula Vista administers the CDBG, ESG, and HOME programs, the City does engage in contracts with outside agencies for the delivery of services to the public, other than the required fair 4 kl �e w 4 CHULAVIST.4 HOUSING ❑IVIS10', AP 1 42 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 236 housing services and funding requests received from City Departments. Non - profits apply for public service funds, capital improvement, and creation of affordable housing. The City monitors the affordable housing programs for all properties in its portfolio including those owned by private parties, under a deed restriction between the City and the respective party. The City has developed a strong relationship with both affordable and for - profit housing developers in not only the creation of affordable units but the ongoing maintenance of the developments as well. Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies Non - profit social service agencies continue to play an important role in serving the needs of low -and moderate - income residents in Chula Vista, There is a 15% cap on the amount of public service funds to be used from its CDBG Allocation. The City surveyed social service providers who serve Chula Vista during the needs assessment process and will continue to attend the Chula Vista Community Collaborative meetings to foster networking among the providers. Introduction: The City of Chula Vista, as an entitlement jurisdiction, receives Community Development Block Grant, Home Investment Partnership Act, and Emergency Solutions Grant from the U.S Department of Housing and Urban Development. Described below are the Program Specific Requirements for each of these programs. 4«4 AP IPage43 CM OF �.

A description of other forms of investment being used beyond those identified in Section 92.205 is as follows: Response: None 2. A description of the guidelines that will be used for resale or recapture of HOME funds when used for homebuyer activities as required in 92.254, is as follows: Response: The City of Chula Vista will invest its HOME funds in accordance with the forms of assistance listed in §92.205(b)(1). The City will use its HOME funds to assist income eligible household to purchase single - family, condominiums, townhomes in the City of Chula Vista. The assistance will be in the form of loans and each borrower must meet the following conditions: • Must income qualify and meet the First Time Homebuyer Program requirements, as detailed in the First Time Homebuyer Manual • Assistance is provided in the form of a deferred payment loan that accrues 3% simple interest; • The loan documents include provisions to recapture the principal amount and interest upon non - occupancy /transfer of the unit for a specified affordability period; and • A HOME Regulatory Agreement will be recorded against the property during the affordability period. • In the event upon transfer where the market value is less than time acquisition costs to repay the City loan in full, the City shall apply HUD's net proceeds formula. 3. A description of the guidelines for resale or recapture that ensures the affordability of units acquired with HOME funds? See 24 CFR 92.254(a)(4) are as follows: Response: To ensure affordability, the City requires that each borrower sign a Deed of Trust, Promissory Note, and HOME Regulatory Agreement. These documents provide details to ensure that the borrower is in compliance with the terms and conditions included in those documents. Pursuant to 24 CFR 94.254(a)(ii), the City requires that the HOME funds be recaptured if the housing does not meet HUD's definition of homeownership. The borrower of HOME funds from the City must continue to occupy the Property as their principal place of residence for the duration of the period of affordability. If all or part of the Property or any interest in it is sold, rented, refinanced, conveyed or transferred (or if a beneficial interest in Borrower is sold, rented, refinanced, conveyed, transferred and Borrower is not a natural person), the loan is due and payable along with any accrued interest. In the event that no Net Appreciation exists at the time of the transfer or open and competitive sale, and no conflict of interest exists, the HOME funds may still be due and payable. In the event that a negative Net Appreciation situation exists, and the full amount of the HOME funds are not available to be recaptured, the amount of HOME funds required to be repaid to the City will be set forth in 24 CFR 92.254 (a)(ii)(A)(3). The formulas are as follows: 4 kl e AP 45 4 .�- CHULAVIST.4 HOUSING ❑IVIS10', 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 239 HOME investment x Net proceeds= HOME amount to be recaptured HOME investment + homeowner investment Homeowner investment x Net proceeds = Amount to homeowner HOME investment + homeowner investment 4.

Reference 91.220(1)(4) The City's ESG grant is small ($153,270 in FY 2015 -16). The match obligation is $153,270. South Bay Community Services sub -grant is for $62,277 for Shelter and $78,998 for HMIS services and Homeless Prevention and Rapid Re- Housing activities. A portion of the ESG funds will be used to cover Administration of the grant. SBCS will meet their dollar for dollar match requirement by providing matching funds from their annual fundraising and foundation activities that specifically supports their programs in the amount of $153,270. The remaining match will come from in -kind services and leveraging of other funding. Therefore, the ESG funding match identified exceeds or meets the required minimum amount (100 %). Discussion Questions Include written standards for providing ESG assistance Response: The City's written standards are attached as Exhibit "C. `LEI �� AP � 46 . ;w�:. CPTYOF �. CHULAVISTA HOUSING DIVISION 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 240 Response: The City of Chula Vista's written standards for providing ESG Assistance address the following main topics: • Standards for providing ESG assistance • Centralized assessment system, as approved by the San Diego Regional Continuum of Care The City of Chula Vista grant administration manual and this Annual Action Plan covers the following: • Identifies the process for making awards and how the City of Chula Vista intends to make its allocation available to nonprofit organizations • The Action Plan describes the performance standards for evaluating ESG activities? • The Action Plan describe consultation with each Continuum of Care that serves the jurisdiction in determining how to allocate ESG funds, develop performance standards, evaluate outcomes of activities assisted by ESG funds, and develop funding, policies, and procedures for the administration and operation of the HMIS. Response: The City of Chula Vista has put together four distinct standards, policies, and other programmatic materials that address the five items listed above. The last item is the Strategic Plan developed by the RCCC. The City and RCCC documents include the following: • The City of Chula Vista 2015 -2016 Notice of Funding Availability • The City of Chula Vista's ESG Written Standards • The City of Chula Vista ESG Program Guidelines • The City of Chula Vista Administrative Policies and Procedures Manual • San Diego Cityand County CoC GovernanceCharter(2014) Electronic or hard copies of these documents are available upon request by contacting the City Grant Coordinators. If the Continuum of Care has established centralized or coordinated assessment system that meets HUD requirements, describe that centralized or coordinated assessment system. Response: The San Diego City and County Continuum of Care (hereinafter referred to as the "CoC" )includes all of the geography within the County of San Diego, including the City of Chula Vista. The City of Chula Vista is required to consult with the CoC on funding priorities using ESG funds. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) charges communities that receive funds under the Homeless Continuum of Care Program (hereinafter referred to as "CoC Program ") of the Homeless Emergency Assistance and Rapid Transition to Housing Act (HEARTH Act) with specific responsibilities. Section 578.5ofthe HEARTH Interim Rule published in July2012 (Interim Rule), defines a Continuum of Care (CoC) as "the group organized to carry out the responsibilities required under this part and that is composed of representatives of organizations, including nonprofit homeless providers, victim service providers, faith -based organizations, governments, businesses, advocates, public housing agencies, school districts, social service providers, mental health agencies, hospitals, universities, affordable housing developers, law enforcement, organizations that serve homeless and formerly homeless 4 kl e AP 47 4 CHULAVIST.4 HOUSING ❑IVISIO', 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 241 veterans, and homeless and formerly homeless persons to the extent these groups are represented within the geographic and are available to participate." Relevant organizations in the San Diego CoC Region established the Regional Continuum of Care Council (RCCC) in 1998, which has served as the CoC coordinating body acknowledged by HUD. Planning and operations of the San Diego CoC have historically been facilitated through the RCCC, an unincorporated association as defined under Section 18035 of the California Corporations Code. As a result, the general operations of the CoC have been guided through the By Laws, structure, and action of the RCCC. The CoC have adopted the following Governance Charter (Article XI) that describes the oversight of ESG Entitlements within its jurisdiction, as described below: ESG ENTITLEMENTAREAS Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG) are awarded to the San Diego ESG entitlement areas "ESG Area" by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for the purpose of providing Essential Services and Shelter Operations to persons who are homeless or at risk of being homeless in the ESG entitlement Areas. The ESG Area makes these funds available to local service providers, as well as itself, via a Request for Proposals (RFP) process upon notification from HUD of the amount of ESG funds allocated to the ESG Area for the program year. The public notification of the RFP is placed in a local newspaper, on the ESG Area websites and electronically distributed by the Continuum of Care homeless service providers. The ESG Area may reserve up to 7.5 percent of the HUD award to administer the program. The RCCC directly participates with jurisdictions that are directly funded by HUD ESG, with the California State Department of Housing and Community Development for the areas in the region that are eligible for State ESG funds, and with non - entitled areas that prepare Consolidated Plans. In each case, the RCCC consults with the jurisdiction to develop cooperative plans and strategies that leverage ESG and other resources to provide emergency shelter, prevention, and rapid re- housing services. The RCCC assists the ESG entitlement areas (ESG Area) in coordinating the prioritization and use of funds. This coordination includes each ESG area covered by the State of California and the ESG Areas in the San Diego region. The RCCC, as the CoC entity, is responsible for assisting with the evaluation of ESG project performance. In cooperation with RCCC, the ESG Area determines, based on the amount of funding received and the need of the client, the level of assistance and the duration of assistance that a household can receive. The RCCC participates in setting local priorities, reviewing and rating proposals, certifying need, and annual review of ESG programs. The RCCC has prepared an ESG Guide that includes information about the responsibilities of the CoC and ESG area, HUD regulations, cross - jurisdiction strategies, and policy statements. Because the Guide is updated at least annually, the most recent Guide is incorporated in its entirety in the Governance Charter by reference here. The general goal of ESG is to assist families and individuals out of homelessness by providing financial support for rental assistance, payment of utilities, transportation services and other essential services deemed eligible by HUD and necessary for the continued housing of a homeless or at risk of becoming homeless person, and /or families. ESG can be used to fund local homeless emergency shelter operations or physical rehabilitation of certain properties used for serving homeless persons. 4 kl e AP 48 4 CHULAVIST.4 HOUSING ❑IVIS10', 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 242 To this end, the ESG entitlement areas and the RCCC have established the following cross - jurisdictional strategies for use of the ESG funds in ways that: A. Further the accomplishment of actions identified in the Consolidated Plan of each jurisdiction. B. Foster greater access to permanent housing, especially helping people access housing that is affordable at 30% area median income. C. Leverage existing resources to achieve the match and case management requirements and to avoid duplication of services. D. Coordinate across jurisdictions for development of standardized eligibility and assessment standards and by convening semiannual regional planning meetings. E. Support federal and local goals for priority populations, including but not limited to veterans, persons with disabilities, families, and others. F. Allow for variations in ESG entitlement programs that respond to the needs and resources of the individual jurisdictions G. Comply with eligibility and verification requirements and locally established standards (HMIS, housing status, habitability standards, homeless definitions, etc.). H. Allows each program to take responsibility for program administration including compliance with public notice requirements and timely reporting. I. Encourages all subrecipients to participate in collaborative assessment, coordinated entry, data management, and reporting systems established by the RCCC in accordance with HEARTH regulations. J. Supports timely and accurate data collection and reporting through contractual obligations with subrecipients, and through establishing common standards for vendor relationships with the HMIS Lead. The RCCC plan for ESG assistance recognizes the multiple ESG Areas contained in the San Diego Region. The RCCC works to avoid a duplication of services to ensure subrecipients do not receive multiple grants for the same services in a single service area. Subrecipients serving multiple areas may receive ESG support from the corresponding ESG Area to serve eligible clients from that service area. ESG subrecipients are responsible for assuring the provision of matching resources. The RCCC encourages subrecipients to leverage additional resources for effective operation of ESG programs. The RCCC consults with ESG Areas and sub recipients to coordinate plans for effective use of funds. HUD CoC Program- funded organizations are required to report the sources of match and leverage funds annually. These resources are verified through an annual review of agency Independent Audit as conducted in accordance with HUD regulations. 4 kl e AP 49 4 .�- CHULAVIST.4 HOUSING ❑IVISIO', 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 243 ESGPROJECT RECIPIENTS AND SUBRECIPIENTS ESG project recipients may include non - profit organizations, public housing agencies; or governmental entities that receive HUD CoC Program- funding. Recipients have a grant agreement with and receive funding directly from HUD; subrecipients have agreements with and receive funding from recipients. ESG recipient and subrecipient organizations certify to ten program assurances concerning: A. Confidentiality; B. Consistency with the applicable Consolidate Plan; C. discharge policies and protocols; D. education assurances for households with children; E. essential services; F. HMIS participation; G. inclusion of homeless persons in decision - making and Section 3 activities as practicable; H. restrictive covenants for facilities receiving ESG funds for renovation or major rehabilitation; matching funds; safe and sanitary facilities; and K. supportive services. ESG recipient to organizations must meet additional requirements established annually by contractual agreement with the ESG Area; for participation in RCCC review and reporting requirements for project evaluation. Identify the process for making sub - awards and describe how the ESG allocation available to private nonprofit organizations (including community and faith -based organizations).

Properties look abandoned, graffiti and trash fill the streets and there seems to be high turnover for small businesses. I would love to see the city cleaned up to attract younger families. We have a phenomenal location and with the bayfront renovations ahead our city could really benefit. Rain water claiming. Do not allow 90 percent of water to travel to the ocean when we finally get it. 9/24/2014 12:14 PM 20 21 HOUSING, HOBS AND CRIME PREVENTION IS ONE OF THE KEY TO LEAD TO A HEALTHY COMMUNTY 9/24/2014 9:31 AM 22 You need to considered the access to PARKWAY, I used to play volleyball twice a week, and we were almost 50 9/24/2014 8:46 AM people on the gym, seniors and young people gatering for the same interest. and now you have to pay 70 dll x hour to use the facilities. this is not fair. we need to encourage our kids to stay safe from drugs doing some healthy and what we have ? ? ?, gyms closing dors to this population of people-thanks and I encourage you to open the gym if is not goint to be free, you can ask for individual payment.... 23 We need more education on how to own a home. Renters are getting too expensive with their tentants, bringing 9/24/2014 8:43 AM their prices up each year while there isn't any employment or any raises at the current jobs. The new minimum is still not enough... 24 We need more officers patrolling the streets. I never see officers unless a crime has occurred. We need a 9/24/2014 8:30 AM substation out East not just a store front. More officer presence. The streets are terrible 25 9/23/2014 9:16 PM 26 More affordable housing and more jobs. And a safe place for our children. mental health services 9/23/2014 9:04 PM 27 9/23/2014 7:27 PM 28 It's difficult to pick one thing on these categories when there is so many needs 9/23/2014 7:12 PM 29 Like to see efforts made with single mothers trying to afford housing in Chula Vista 9/23/2014 6:16 PM 30 1 think our neighborhoods are deteriorating on the west side. Owners don't take care of their yards, there is trash, 9/23/2014 5:25 PM mattresses, courches etc left on the streets, graffitti and youth openly smoking pot in the parks. I don't shop on 3rd because of the homeless and parolees lingering and loitering. 31 Would be interested in the breakdown of how you spent the money in the most recent 2 years. Thanks Scott 9/23/2014 4:28 PM Vinson 32 west of the 805 is in need of low or no interest rate home improvement loans. 9/23/2014 4:20 PM 33 take away some of these don't turn on red signs for instinst 4th and cst.terrible back up of traffic heavy area due 9/23/2014 3:19 PM to motor vehicles ,coming going can't get out parking lot or in jack and box from c.st,traffic backs up can't enter c st even back to 4 way stop before c st.ck it out .thanks 34 Residential street repair not only main fairway 9/23/2014 3:10 PM 35 Real Affordable Housing for seniors. I live in "Affordable" senior housing for seniors at Harvest Ridge in East 9/23/2014 2:48 PM Lake on Palomar Street. I pay $898.00 per month in Rent. $898.00 is not affordable. 36 Swimming pools especially on the East side of town. Our students get scholarships for aquatic sports, especially 9/23/2014 2:30 PM girls and there aren't enough pools to cover all of the students who swim and play water polo. It seems silly but it's truly important. 9/23/2014 2:15 PM 37 It would be great if funding was used for more affordable housing projects. My family and I have been on waiting lists for several years to obtain affordable housing and it is disillusioning to still not have any openings in the Eastlake area. We owned homes in Eastlake before the housing crisis and ended up losing our home to foreclosure. We did not want to move our kids away from their schools and choose to stay in this neighborhood. There are a lot of people in our same situation who also need some type of rental assistance but are unable to locate affordable housing in our area. The other issue I would like to address is the need for more jobs in Chula Vista. It would be nice if there was funding to go toward job creations for this area. I have to commute over 45 minutes outside of Chula Vista and would love to be able to work closer to home. Thank you for allowing my input. 38 Need to keep freeway access areas clean from litter so the city looks nice ( H street on and off ramps) 9/23/2014 1:49 PM 39 Too many transients begging for money, especially on /off ramps to freeway. Dangerous, unsightly, and creates a 9/23/2014 1:39 PM bad image of our city. Exhibit "C" Survey Comments 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet 2/3 Page 259 Housing and Community Development Needs Survey 40 Seeing a lot of converted garages and building taking place that do not seem to be permitted 9/23/2014 1:19 PM 41 ENFORCE VAGRANCY LAWS AND PUBLIC INTOXICATION LAWS 9/23/2014 1:10 PM 42 This is a good neighborhood but I really think if rules were enforced by HOAs (we are told they cannot do 9/23/2014 1:05 PM anything but give a fine myabe) things might improve. People illegally park, do uturns, block intersections, let dogs loose and /or don't clean up after them, have parties later than midnight, dig into others properties and "nothing can be done" Speeding is also a big problem esp. among the younger group. Also parents BLOCK culdesacs to let children play... I have stop calling in because complaints go unheard... Neighbor broke our fence, we paid to fix it as they wouldn't and HOA said there's nothing they can do ... money is paid into what 43 Pay off my mortgage so I can retire by age 65. 9/23/2014 12:48 PM 44 Fewer palm "trees "; more leafy trees to make more shade and make city feel more cozy 9/23/2014 12:47 PM 45 This WAS mentioned above but it needs to be emphasized. Our city could be much less a ghetto city if we 9/23/2014 12:41 PM enforced the laws /rules we have on the books already. And make sure they are carried out. 46 COMMUNITY SERVICES need to include arts and after school programs 9/23/2014 12:26 PM 47 1 can easily pick more than one option under a catagory such as street /sidewalk; Youth, Child & Health centers; 9/23/2014 12:21 PM Water /Sewer; Transp., Hornless & Substance abuse; Job skills training; Housing rehab for Owners; Affordable Housing for Seniors; and add Services for Mental Illness and Behavioral problems, which affects the entire community, and it's not being addressed in many communities. 48 Open Space beautification. 9/23/2014 12:05 PM 49 Chula Vista's image needs improvement, please work with the Chamber of Commerce or other organizations to 9/23/2014 12:04 PM enhance our city's image and attract high - paying jobs and industry. 50 Repave streets 9/23/2014 12:03 PM 51 Would like to see some lights around stop signs and lights in the cross walk along E.

Per 24 CFR 576.401 the City and ESG sub - recipients must conduct an initial evaluation to determine each individual or family's eligibility for ESG assistance and the amount and types of assistance the individual or family needs to regain stability in permanent housing. These evaluations must be conducted in accordance with the centralized or coordinated assessment requirements set forth under §576.400(d) which is pending development by the San Diego Continuum of Care (CoC). The City and ESG sub - recipients must re- evaluate the program participant's eligibility and the types and amounts of assistance the participant needs; not less than once a year for participants who are receiving homelessness prevention assistance or receiving rapid re- housing assistance. At the City and sub - recipient's discretion, re- evaluations may be conducted more frequently than required by 24 CFR 576.401 and may also be incorporated into the case management process for homeless prevention and rapid re- housing participants — See 24 CFR 576.401(e) (i). Regardless of which timeframe is used, re- evaluations, must at minimum, establish that: • The program participant does not have an annual income that exceeds 30 percent of median family income for the area, as determined by HUD; and the program participant lacks sufficient resources and support networks necessary to retain housing without ESG assistance. To determine if an individual or family is income eligible, the City or sub - recipient must examine an individual or family's annual income to ensure that it does not exceed the most current area income limits posted on the Department of Housing and Urban Development's website webpage found at: hLtp://www.huduser.org/portal/datasets/il/il20l2/2012summM.odn Note: Annual income must be below 30% at the time of the initial evaluation. • When the program participant's income or other circumstances change (e.g., changes in household composition) that affects the program participant's need for assistance under ESG, the City and its sub - recipient must re- evaluate the program participant's eligibility and the amount and types of assistance the program participant needs. • The City may also assist each program participant, as needed, to obtain appropriate supportive services, including assistance in obtaining other permanent housing, medical health treatment, mental health treatment, counseling, supervision, and other services essential for achieving independent living; housing stability case management; and other Federal, State, local, or private assistance available to assist the program participant in obtaining housing stability including; Exhibit "D" - ESG Written Standards Page 1 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 261 • Medicaid (Medi -Cal in California) • Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (Food Stamps or SNAPS) • Women, Infants and Children (WIC) • Federal -State Unemployment Insurance Program • Public Housing • Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) • Supplemental Security Income (SSI) • Child and Adult Care Food Program, and • Other mainstream resources such as housing, health, social services, employment, education services and youth programs that an individual or family may be eligible to receive HOMELESS PREVENTION AND RAPID RE- HOUSING ESG funds may be used for costs of rental assistance, security deposits, and utility deposits, as well as helping pay for any arrears (up to the program limits). Policies and procedures for determining and prioritizing which eligible families and individuals will receive homelessness prevention assistance and which eligible families and individuals will receive rapid re- housing assistance will consist of a waiting list for potentially eligible clients and those who most likely benefit from the program. Referrals from social service providers will be key to the program's success. The City of Chula Vista's program will focus on assisting special needs populations including former foster youth, victims of domestic violence, and veterans. The goal is to leverage the City's HPRP funds with those funds available to program participants that can achieve program success. The City recognizes there are some applicants who meet HPRP eligibility criteria, but only need a few months of assistance before they receive Section 8, Tenant Based Rental Assistance, County voucher for former Foster Voucher or a HUD VASH voucher (as it may take several months to finish the process). The City with its numerous partners would encourage applicants who are lined up other mainstream services to utilize the City's HPRP short term program. Another key to the success of this program is the use of a screening and assessment process, which thoroughly explores a family's or individual's situation and pinpoints their unique housing and service needs. Based upon the assessment, families and individuals should be referred to the kinds of housing and services most appropriate to their situations and need (i.e. access all available services to increase self sufficiency). Once in place, a centralized or coordinated assessment system will help to better match individuals and families with the most appropriate assistance. Under homelessness prevention assistance, funds are available to persons below 30% of Area Median Income (AMI), and are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless. ESG funds can be used to prevent an individual or family from becoming homeless and /or regain stability in current housing or other permanent housing. Rapid re- housing funding will be available to those who are literally homeless to ultimately move into permanent housing and achieve housing stability. Exhibit "D" - ESG Written Standards Page 2 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 262 Standards for determining the share of rent and utilities costs that each program participant must pay, while receiving homelessness prevention or rapid re- housing assistance will consist of a subsidy calculation using a hybrid of the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program. However, the City will have the discretion to set the payment standard and maximum monthly subsidy of $1,000. The amount each program participant must pay, (a minimum rent of $100.00), will be based on the following: • Rental assistance cannot be provided for a unit unless the rent for that unit is at or below the Payment Standard, established by the City using HUD's published Fair Market Rents for the San Diego Region. A complete listing of the Fair Market Rent for San Diego can be found at the following website: htlp://www.huduser.org/portal/datasets/finr.html • The rent charged for a unit must be reasonable in relation to rents currently being charged for comparable units in the private unassisted market and must not be in excess of rents currently being charged by the owner for comparable unassisted units. See 24 CFR 574.320. • The rental unit must meet minimum habitability standards found at 24 CFR 576.403. • There must be a rental assistance agreement and lease between property manager and tenant as well as the owner of property and the City or ESG sub - recipient. • No rental assistance may be made to an individual or family that is receiving rental assistance from another public source for the same time period, and • Rental assistance may not be provided to a participant who is currently receiving replacement housing payments under Uniform Relocation Assistance. • Rental assistance may be available for Project Based Rental Assistance, based on availability of funding and vacant units. Per 24 CFR 576.106 (e), the City's or its ESG sub - recipients may make rental assistance payments only to an owner with whom the sub - recipient has entered into a rental assistance agreement. The rental assistance agreement must set forth the terms under which rental assistance will be provided, including the requirements that apply under this section. The rental assistance agreement must provide that, during the term of the agreement, the owner must give the sub - recipient a copy of any notice to the program participant to vacate the housing unit, or any complaint used under state or local law to commence an eviction action against the program participant. In the event of project based assistance, the payments would also go directly to the property owner with a rental assistance agreement in place. Exhibit "D" - ESG Written Standards Page 3 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 263 Standards for determining how long a particular program participant will be provided with rental assistance and whether and how the amount of that assistance will be adjusted over time. Currently, the period is up to 12 months. Although under 24 CFR 576.103 and 24 CFR Part 576.104, the City and its sub - recipients may provide an ESG a program participant with up to 24 months of rental assistance during any 3- year period. The City is providing a maximum of up to 12 months of rental assistance that can be in the form of short -term rental assistance is assistance for up to 3 months of rent or medium - term rental assistance is assistance for more than 3 months but not more than 12 months of rent. The amount of that assistance can be adjusted over time. Payment of rental arrears may consist of a one -time payment for up to 6 months of rent in arrears, including any late fees on those arrears. The maximum amount of rental assistance provided and, an individual or family's level of responsibility for rent payments, over time, shall be determined by the City and shall be reflective of the individual or family's need for rental assistance and the level of financial resources available to the ESG sub - recipient, noting that some families may be better suited for an emergency shelter or transitional housing before transitioning into a HPRP subsidized unit. Standards for determining the type, amount, and duration of housing stabilization and /or relocation services to provide a program participant, including the limits, if any, on the homelessness prevention or rapid re- housing assistance that each program participant may receive, such as the maximum amount of assistance, maximum number of months the program participants receives assistance; or the maximum number of times the program participants may receive assistance. Subject to the general conditions under 24 CFR 576.103 and 24 CFR Part 576.104, sub - recipients may use ESG funds to pay housing owners, utility companies, and other third parties for some or all of the following costs, as allowed under 24 CFR 576.105: • Security deposits • Last month's rent • Utility deposits • Utility payments Consistent with 24 CFR 576.105 (c), ESG sub - recipients shall determine the type, maximum amount and duration of housing stabilization and /or relocation services for individuals and families who are in need of homeless prevention or rapid re- housing assistance through the initial evaluation, re- evaluation and ongoing case management processes. Consistent with 24 CFR 576.105(d), financial assistance for housing stabilization and /or relocation services cannot be provided to a program participant who is receiving the same type of assistance through other public sources or to a program participant who has been provided with replacement housing payments under the Uniform Relocation Act (URA) during the period of time covered by the URA payments. Exhibit "D" - ESG Written Standards Page 4 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 264 EMERGENCY SHELTER Emergency Shelter Definition The term Emergency Shelter was revised by 24 CFR Part 576.2 to mean "any facility, the primary purpose of which is to provide a temporary shelter for the homeless in general or for specific populations of the homeless and which does not require occupants to sign leases or occupancy agreements. This definition excludes transitional housing. However, projects that were funded as an emergency shelter (shelter operations) under the FY 2010 Emergency Shelter Grants program may continue to be funded under the emergency shelter component under the Emergency Solutions Grants program, regardless of whether the project meets the revised definition. Admission, Diversion, Referral and Discharge ESG sub - recipients must conduct an initial evaluation of all individuals or families to determine if they should be admitted to an emergency shelter, diverted to a provider of other ESG funded components (e.g. rapid re- housing or homeless prevention assistance) and /or referred for other mainstream resources. ESG sub - recipients must determine that individuals and families meet criteria including the Homeless Definition and rate the individual or family's vulnerability to ensure that only those individuals or families that have the greatest need for emergency shelter assistance receive ESG funded assistance. ESG sub - recipients must also reassess emergency shelter participants, on an ongoing basis, to determine the earliest possible time that they can be discharged to permanent housing. Safety and Shelter Needs of Special Populations ESG funds may be used to provide services for homeless youth, victim services, and services for people living with HIV /AIDS, so long as the costs of providing these services are eligible under the regulations for the emergency shelter component found at 24 CFR Part 576.102. Consistent with ESG recordkeeping and reporting requirements found at 24 CFR Part 576.500, ESG sub - recipients must develop and apply written policies to ensure the safety of program participants through the following actions: • All records containing personally identifying information (as defined in HUD's standards for participation, data collection, and reporting in a local HMIS) of any individual or family who applies for and /or receives ESG assistance will be kept secure and confidential • The address or location of any domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking shelter project assisted under the ESG will not be made public, except with written authorization of the person responsible for the operation of the shelter, and Exhibit "D" - ESG Written Standards Page 5 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 265 • The address or location of any housing of a program participant, including youth, individuals living with HIV /AIDS, victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking; and individuals and families who have the highest barriers to housing will not be made public, except as provided under a preexisting privacy policy of the sub - recipient and consistent with state and local laws regarding privacy and obligations of confidentiality In addition, ESG sub - recipients must adhere to the following ESG shelter and housing standards found at 24 CFR Part 576.403 to ensure that shelter and housing facilities are safe, sanitary, and adequately maintained: • Lead -Based Paint Requirements. The Lead -Based Paint Poisoning Prevention Act applies to all shelters assisted under ESG program and all housing occupied by program participants. All ESG sub - recipients are required to conduct a Lead -Based Paint inspection on all units receiving assistance under the rapid re- housing AND homelessness prevention components if the unit was built before 1978 and a child under age of six or a pregnant woman resides in the unit. • Structure and Materials. The shelter building should be structurally sound to protect residents from the elements and not pose any threat to health and safety of the residents. • Access. The shelter must be accessible, and there should be a second means of exiting the facility in the case of emergency or fire. • Space and Security. Each resident should have adequate space and security for themselves and their belongings. Each resident must have an acceptable place to sleep. • Interior Air Quality. Each room or space within the shelter /facility must have a natural or mechanical means of ventilation. The interior air should be free of pollutants at a level that might threaten or harm the health of residents. • Water Supply. The shelter's water supply should be free of contamination. • Sanitary Facilities. Each resident should have access to sanitary facilities that are in proper operating condition. These facilities should be able to be used in privacy, and be adequate for personal cleanliness and the disposal of human waste. • Thermal Environment. The shelter /facility must have any necessary heating /cooling facilities in proper operating condition. • Illumination and Electricity. The shelter /facility should have adequate natural or artificial illumination to permit normal indoor activities and support health and safety. There should be sufficient electrical sources to permit the safe use of electrical appliances in the shelter. Exhibit "D" - ESG Written Standards Page 6 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 266 • Food Preparation. Food preparation areas, if any, should contain suitable space and equipment to store, prepare and serve food in a safe and sanitary manner. • Sanitary Conditions. The shelter should be maintained in a sanitary condition. • Fire Safety- Sleeping Areas. There should be at least one working smoke detector in each occupied unit of the shelter facility. In addition, smoke detectors should be located near sleeping areas where possible. The fire alarm system should be designed for a hearing- impaired resident. • Fire Safety- Common Areas. All public areas of the shelter must have at least one working smoke detector. Policies and procedures for assessing, prioritizing, and reassessing individuals' and families' needs for essential services related to emergency shelter. • ESG funds may be used to provide essential services to individuals and families who are in an emergency shelter. Essential services for participants of emergency shelter assistance can include case management, child care, education services, employment assistance and job training, outpatient health services, legal services, life skills training, mental health services, substance abuse treatment services, transportation, and services for special populations. • ESG sub - recipients are responsible to assess an individual or family's initial need for emergency shelter and must re- assess their need on an ongoing basis to ensure that only those individual or families with the greatest need receive ESG funded emergency shelter assistance. • Upon completion and implementation of the CoUs centralized or coordinated assessment system, ESG recipients shall be required to use that system to help determine an individual or families need for emergency shelter or other ESG funded assistance. • Policies and procedures for coordination among emergency shelter providers, essential service providers, homelessness prevention and rapid re- housing assistance providers, other homeless assistance providers, and mainstream service and housing providers. Coordination to assist the homeless and prevent homelessness will come from the leadership of the statewide Continuum of Care. Active engagement and membership in the statewide CoC or local homeless coalition is strongly encouraged. The CoC will further engage and coordinate resources amongst other entities to improve current programs and funding. Exhibit "D" - ESG Written Standards Page 7 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 267 CITY OF CHULAV[STA HOUSING DIVISION Citizen Participation Plan 2015 -2019 Exhibit "E" - Citizen Participation Plan 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 268 The Consolidated Plan is a U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requirement for a city to receive federal housing and community development funding. Each Consolidated Plan must contain a strategy for citizen participation in the Consolidated Plan and Annual Action Plan process. It is the policy of the City of Chula Vista to ensure adequate citizen involvement in the planning, implementation, and evaluation of its housing and community development programs. This document outlines the City's plan for soliciting and receiving citizen input during preparation of the Five -Year Consolidated Plan covering the program years 2015 to 2019, and the individual Annual Action Plans during these same years. This Citizen Participation Plan (CPP) was drafted in accordance with Sections 91.100 and 91.105 of HUD's Consolidated Plan regulations. Administrative Responsibilities and Contact Information The City of Chula Vista (City) is the recipient of all CDBG, HOME, and ESG funds. Specific program information is available at: http: / /www.chulavistaca.gov /departments /development- services /housing The Development Services Housing Division has responsibility for administration of the Consolidated Plan process, which includes all activities related to development and dissemination of Consolidated Plans, Annual Action Plans, and Consolidated Annual Performance Evaluation Reports. Encouraging Public Participation It is the intent of the City of Chula Vista is to encourage and facilitate the participation of residents in the formulation of priorities, strategies and funding allocations related to the Consolidated Plan process, emphasizing involvement by low and moderate income persons, especially those living in low and moderate income neighborhoods. The City also encourages participation of minority populations, including people who do not speak English and persons with special needs. The City shall encourage the participation of residents of public and assisted housing developments, in the process of developing and implementing the Consolidated Plan. Finally, the City consults with the public and private agencies that provide housing, health and social services to City residents to identify the greatest needs of City residents, particularly low to moderate income residents and those with special needs. Role of low and moderate income people. The primary purpose of the programs covered by this CPP is to improve communities by providing decent housing, a suitable living environment, and growing economic opportunities —all principally for low and moderate income people. Because the amount of federal CDBG, HOME, and ESG money the City of Chula Vista receives and /or administers each year is primarily based on the severity of both poverty and substandard housing conditions in the City, the City recognizes the importance of public participation that genuinely involves people who have experienced these conditions. It is the City's intent to provide opportunities for meaningful involvement by low income people at all stages of the process, including: • Needs identification • Priority setting • Funding allocations • Program recommendations CITY OF CHULA VISTA CITIZEN PARTICIPATION PLAN PAGE I 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 269 Stages of the Consolidated Plan Process The policies and procedures in this CPP relate to five specific stages of action mentioned in law or regulation. These stages include: ■ Stage 1. The needs assessment stage, i.e., the identification of housing and community development needs that generally occurs during development of a Consolidated Plan. For the 2015 -2019 Consolidated Plan, this stage occurred during the development of the 2013 -2020 Housing Element, and between August 2014- April 2015. ■ Stage 2. The plan development stage, i.e., preparation of a Draft Consolidated Plan and /or Draft Annual Action Plan. This occurred during December 2014 -April 2015 for the Five -year Consolidated Plan and for the 2015 Action Plan ■ Stage 3. The approval stage, i.e., formal approval by elected officials of a final Consolidated Plan or Annual Action Plan. The timing of this stage depends on the meeting schedule of the City of Chula Vista, but generally occurs during March - April. ■ Stage 4. The amendment stage, i.e., when a change is made in the proposed use of funds in an Annual Action Plan or to the priorities established in the Consolidated Plan, a formal Substantial Amendment will be proposed, considered and acted upon. (See "Stages in the Process" of this CPP for the definition of what constitutes a substantial amendment). This stage only occurs if a substantial amendment is required. ■ Stage 5. The performance review phase, i.e., preparation of the CAPER. This occurs during August and September of each year. Program Year in the City of Chula Vista The "program year" established by the City for the use of these funds is July 1 through June 30. Plan Year 1 (2015): July 1, 2015 -June 30, 2016 Plan Year 2 (2016): July 1, 2016 -June 30, 2017 Play Year 3 (2017): July 1, 2017 -June 30, 2018 Play Year 4: (2018) July 1, 2018 -June 30, 2019 Plan Year 5: (2019) July 1, 2019 -June 30, 2020 Public Notice This section describes how the City will issue public notices about the Five -year Consolidated Plan, Annual Action Plan, CAPER meetings, document draft review periods, amendments, and requests for release of HUD funds. When notice will occur. The City will provide advanced public notice once any of the following documents is available for draft review and comment: the Proposed Annual Action Plan or Consolidated Plan, any proposed Substantial Amendment, the Annual Performance Report and Notices of Intent to Request Release of Funds. In addition, the City will provide public notice of all public hearings related to the funds or to the planning process covered by this CPP. CITY OF CHULA VISTA CITIZEN PARTICIPATION PLAN PAGE 2 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 270 HUD considers two weeks advance public notice to be adequate for the public to permit informed comment. The amount of lead time can also vary, depending on the event. Specific minimum amounts of lead time for different events are described later in this CPP. Forms of public notice. Public notices will be published in an English- language and Spanish - language general circulation publications. Whenever feasible, display ads and /or press releases for publication in appropriate neighborhood and ethnic newspapers will also be used. Notice will also be given through mailings to other organizations or individuals who have requested receipt of such notices. The proposed Consolidated Plan will be published to afford citizens, public agencies and other interested parties a reasonable opportunity to examine its contents and to submit comments. The requirement for publishing will be met by publishing a summary of the proposed Consolidated Plan and proposed projects in the above - mentioned publications. Public Access to Information The City of Chula Vista will provide the public with reasonable and timely access to information and records relating to the data or content of the Consolidated Plan, as well as the proposed, actual, and past use of funds covered by this CPP. In addition, the City will provide the public with reasonable and timely access to local meetings related to the proposed or actual use of funds. Standard documents. Standard documents to which public access will be provided include: the proposed and final Annual Action Plans, the proposed and final Consolidated Plans, proposed and final Substantial Amendments to an Annual Action Plan or Consolidated Plan, Consolidated Annual Performance Reports and this Citizen Participation Plan. Availability of standard documents. In the spirit of encouraging public participation, copies of standard documents will be provided to the public. These materials will be available in a form accessible to persons with disabilities, upon request by calling (619) 691 -5047. Places where standard documents are available.

More information about these specific hearings is contained in "Stages of the Process" of this CPP. Access to public hearings. Public hearings will be held only after there has been adequate notice as described in "Public Notice" of this CPP. At a minimum, an advertisement in an English and Spanish CITY OF CHULA VISTA CITIZEN PARTICIPATION PLAN PAGE 3 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 271 language general circulation publication, published at least ten days before the hearing, is required. The City web -site at www.chulavistaca.gov also posts the City Council meeting agendas and information on each agenda item. Public hearings are held before the City of Chula Vista Council Chambers; 276 Fourth Avenue Chula Vista, CA 91910 — accessible by public transit. Public hearings and populations with unique needs. All public hearings are held at a location accessible to people with disabilities. If non - English speaking or hearing impaired residents request assistance to participate in a public hearing, the City will provide appropriate assistance to the greatest extent possible. Public Meetings The City holds public meetings related to the Consolidated Plan process in several areas in the City of Chula Vista (i.e. East, South and Northwest) in and around the month of September. Anyone interested in being notified of the meetings can call or otherwise contact the Development Services Housing Division to be placed on the community meeting mailing list. Because the housing and community development needs of low and moderate income people are so great and so diverse, priorities must be set in order to decide which needs should get more attention and more resources than other needs. This is the basic reason the Consolidated Plan exists. The City holds public meetings to obtain residents' opinions about needs and what priority those needs have during the development stage of the Consolidated Plan (every 5 years). Public meetings about needs will be completed at least 15 days before a draft Consolidated Plan is published for comment, so that the needs identified can be considered by the City and addressed in the draft Plan. Draft Annual Action Plan and /or Consolidated Plan The law providing the funds related to this CPP calls for improved accountability of jurisdictions to the public. In that spirit and in compliance with the terms of the law, the City will use the following procedures: General information. At the beginning of this stage, usually in October of each year, the City will provide public notice of the anticipated receipt of grant funds, including an estimate of the amount of CDBG, HOME, and ESG, funds it expects to receive in the following year and a description of the range of types of activities that can be funded with these resources. Also, the notice will provide an estimate of the amount of these funds that will be used in ways that will benefit low and moderate income people. Contact information will be included in the notice so that interested persons can obtain additional information. The plans of the City to minimize the extent to which low and moderate income people will have to leave their homes as a result of the use of these federal dollars (displacement) are also available at this stage. The City's "anti- displacement plan" describes how the City will compensate people who are actually displaced as a result of the use of these funds, specifying the type and amount of compensation. Technical assistance. City staff will work with organizations representative of low and moderate CITY OF CHULA VISTA CITIZEN PARTICIPATION PLAN PAGE 4 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 272 income people who are interested in submitting a proposal to obtain funding for an activity. Technical assistance workshops regarding the funding process and how to apply will be provided to interested organizations early in the process. Anti - Displacement. The City of Chula Vista strives to avoid or minimize the displacement of individuals as a result of HUD funded activities. Therefore, to the greatest extent feasible, the City: • Considers the impact of displacement in site selection, during the project planning phase. • Provides information to displaced individuals on available assistance and relocation benefits • Reviews Anti - displacement Plans and Relocation Plans prior to funding. Prior to approval of any HUD funded activity with the potential for temporary or permanent displacement of individuals, the responsible agency (City or private developer) provides a written plan of action for comparable replacement low- income housing and assistance to displaced persons, based on the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisitions Polices Act of 1970 (URA), 49 CFR part 24). Availability of a proposed plan. Copies of Proposed Consolidated Plans and /or Annual Action Plans are made available by request. In addition, copies are made available at the locations specified above in "Public Access to Information" of this CPP. Public hearings and further action. In addition to the public meetings held in the community regarding proposed Plans, public hearings about proposed Plans are held by the City Council. All comments from the public meetings, as well as those received in writing during the 30 -day public comment period, are presented to the Chula Vista City Council for their consideration. In the event that the City receives notification of one -time federal funds or grant opportunities, the City may use the suggested public comment period. All such comments are considered by staff and presented in the final Plans. Final Annual Action Plan and /or Consolidated Plan Copies of the final Plan and a summary will be made available to the public upon request at cost. In addition, copies will be available at the locations specified above in "Public Access to Information." Substantial Amendments to the Consolidated Plan and Action Plan Occasionally, public comments warrant an amendment to the Consolidated Plan and /or Action Plan. The City will make documents available for interested parties of the draft Consolidated Plan and Annual Action Plan and Executive Summary for a comment period no less than 30 -days. In the event that the City receives notification of one -time federal funds or grant opportunities, the City may use the suggested public comment period. The criteria for whether to amend a Consolidated Plan or Annual Action Plan is referred to by HUD as "Substantial Amendment Criteria." The following are defined as substantial amendments by the City and will require public notice and provision of a public comment period: ■ Over 50% of the original location of beneficiaries are impacted by the change; ■ Contract scope of work of the proposed activity is modified to the point where it would generally be considered a new activity; CITY OF CHULA VISTA CITIZEN PARTICIPATION PLAN PAGE 5 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 273 ■ Subrecipient assumes the responsibility of a project identified in the Action Plan; ■ A new program or proposed activity is proposed for funding that was not previously identified in the Consolidated Plan and Action Plans; ■ An administrative decision to reallocate funds to an activity in the Action Plan to other activities of equal or lesser priority need level, unless the decision is a result of: ■ A federal government, state government, or local government declared state of emergency. ■ A change in allocation priorities or a change in the method of distribution of funds; ■ Any use of HUD 108 financing that was not described in the Consolidated Plan; ■ Any changes in federal funding level after the Draft Consolidated Plan's comment period has expired; and ■ the resulting effect on the distribution of funds will not be considered an amendment or a substantial amendment. Public notice and public hearing for substantial amendments. The City will provide reasonable notice of a proposed Substantial Amendment so that residents will have an opportunity to review and comment on it. Notice will be made according to the procedures described in "Public Notice" of this CPP and will allow a 30 -day period for public comment. In the event that the City receives notification of one -time federal funds or grant opportunities, the City may use the suggested public comment period. In preparing a final Substantial Amendment, due consideration will be given to all comments and views expressed by the public. The final Substantial Amendment will have a section that presents all comments and explains why any comments were not accepted. Consolidated Annual Performance Evaluation Report (CAPER) Every year, the City must submit to HUD the Consolidated Annual Performance Evaluation Report (CAPER), within 90 days of the close of the program year, i.e., by September 28. In general, the CAPER describes how funds were actually spent and the extent to which these funds were used for activities that benefited low and moderate income people. Public notice for CAPERs The City will provide reasonable notice that the CAPER is available so that residents will have an opportunity to review and comment on it. Notice will be made according to the procedures described in "Public Notice" above. Public comments will be accepted during a 15 -day comment period described in the public notice. Copies of the CAPER will be made available to the public upon request. In addition, copies will be available at the locations listed in "Public Access to Information." In preparing a CAPER for submission to HUD, consideration will be given to all comments and views expressed by the public, orally or submitted in writing. The CAPER sent to HUD will have a section that presents all comments.

Please refer to the Notice of Funding Availability for a description of each of the funding sources and programmatic requirements. A brief description of each program is described below and funding is subject to the priorities listed in the Consolidated Plan and Notice of Funding Availability. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program is administered by HUD and is authorized under Title 1 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, as amended. The purpose of the CDBG Program is to enhance and maintain viable urban communities through the provision of decent housing, a suitable living environment, and the expansion of economic opportunities, principally for low -and moderate income persons. Not less than 70 percent of CDBG funds must be used for activities that benefit low- and moderate - income persons. In addition, each activity must meet one of the following national objectives for the program: benefit low- and moderate - income persons, prevention or elimination of slums or blight, or address community development needs having a particular urgency because existing conditions pose a serious and immediate threat to the health or welfare of the community for which other funding is not available. HOME INVESTMENT PARTNERSHIP PROGRAM (HOME) The Home Investment Partnerships (HOME) Program as authorized by the 1990 National Affordable Housing Act, as amended by the Housing and Community Development Act of 1992. The intent of the HOME Program is to expand the supply of decent, safe, sanitary and affordable housing. This is done through the following: • Community Housing Development Organizations (CHDO). Home ownership assistance • Rehabilitation • New construction of affordable housing • Tenant -based rental assistance • Acquisition of property for affordable housing • Administration In order for an activity or program to be eligible for HOME funding, it must qualify by meeting the following guidelines: CITY OF CHULA VISTA CITIZEN PARTICIPATION PLAN Appendix "B" 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 277 • 100% of all funding must be used to benefit households or persons with incomes less than 60% of the area median income. • All HOME - funded projects must have 25% non - federal matching funds. • The HOME program has strict long -term affordability requirements which differ based on the type of project and the amount of funding requested per unit. • Prevailing wage requirements are different from the CDBG program. Federal prevailing wages (Davis - Bacon) are triggered when there are 8 or more units assisted with CDBG funds. For the HOME program, it is 12 or more units. Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) The ESG program provides funding to: (1) engage homeless individuals and families living on the street; (2) improve the number and quality of emergency shelters for homeless individuals and families; (3) help operate these shelters; (4) provide essential services to shelter residents, (5) rapidly re -house homeless individuals and families, and (6) prevent families /individuals from becoming homeless.

City of Chula Vista Staff Report RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA ACCEPTING THE 2015 REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE (AI) AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER OR HIS DESIGNEE TO CERTIFY AND SUBMIT THE Al TO THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT RECOMMENDED ACTION Council adopt the resolution. SUMMARY The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires that all entitlement communities receiving Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds prepare an Analysis to Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI) and update the report every five years. The Al identifies the fair housing impediments that affect both the region and the City of Chula Vista and provides recommendations to remedy the impediments and to affirmatively further fair housing. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The Development Services Director has reviewed the proposed activity for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The proposed activity is not considered "Projects" as defined under Section 15378(b)(5) of the State CEQA Guidelines because the proposal consist of a reporting action, is not for a site specific project and will not result in a direct or indirect physical change in the environment. Therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines, these activities are not subject to CEQA. Under NEPA, the activities qualify for a Certification of Exemption pursuant to Title 24, Part 58.34(a)(2) &(3) of the Code of Federal Regulations and pursuant to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Environmental Guidelines. Thus, no further environmental review is necessary at this time. BOARD /COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION Not applicable DISCUSSION The Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (commonly known as the "Al") , presents a demographic profile of San Diego County, assesses the extent of housing needs among specific income groups, and evaluates the range of available housing choices for residents. The Al also analyses the conditions in the private market and public sector that may limit the range of housing choices or impede a person's access to housing. More importantly, this Al identifies impediments that may prevent equal housing access and develops solutions to mitigate or remove such impediments. The Al is prepared as a condition of receiving Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and City of Chula Vista Page 1 of 4 Printed on 5/7/2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet powered by Leg age 347 File #: 15 -0180, Item #: 4. HOME Investment Partnership Program (HOME) funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The City is required to complete this update in conjunction with the adoption of City's 2015 -2019 Five -Year Consolidated Plan (Con Plan). The Con Plan is on this evening's City Council agenda for final approval and will be submitted to HUD by May 15, 2015. The Al covers the entire San Diego County, and includes the 18 incorporated cities and all unincorporated areas. The City of Chula Vista, along with the CDBG entitlement communities, contracted with Veronica Tam and Associates (VTA) to prepare the Al. In preparing the report, VTA reviewed previous Fair Housing Reports, Housing Elements, regional planning documents, and housing industry research for the San Diego region and the respective cities. VTA also held interviews with City and County staff, housing providers, members of private housing industry, fair housing service providers, members of the San Diego Regional Alliance for Fair Housing, and other oversight agencies. The San Diego Regional Analysis to Fair Housing Choice (AI) is included as Attachment No. 1 to this report. The Al has identified public policies at the jurisdictional level (see Chapter 5 of the Al) that can affect housing development, and therefore, may impact the range and location of housing choices available to residents. The 2015 Al identifies four recommended actions. These recommended actions, as well as staff's efforts over the coming years, are as follows: 1. Amend the City's Zoning Ordinance to comply with recent updates to State law, including extending the affordability period from 30 years to 55 years and a one - for -one replacement of housing units being replaced or converted which were occupied by lower income households. (AB 2222). Efforts. Staff will bring forward an amendment to Chula Vista Municipal Code (CVMC) 19.90 (Affordable Housing Incentives - Density Bonus) and update the City's For Sale Policy 453 -02 by the end of 2016 for consistency with AB 2222. 2. Amend the City's Zoning Ordinance to expressly address and permit licensed residential care facilities consistent with the Lanterman Developmental Disabilities Services Act. Efforts. An amendment to Title 19 of CVMC (Planning and Zoning) to define residential care facilities as a use and to permit such facilities within residential zones is scheduled to be presented for City Council consideration by the end of 2015. While residential care facilities are not expressly defined within the City's Zoning ordinance, the City of Chula Vista has a number of residential care facilities and has recently approved the following residential care facilities: • St. Paul's Plaza at Otay Ranch (2015) • Westmount at San Miguel Ranch (2014) • ActiveCare at Rolling Hills Ranch (2013) 3. Amend the City's Zoning Ordinance to explicitly address and permit by right or with a Conditional City of Chula Vista Page 2 of 4 Printed on 5/7/2015 istar 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet powered by Leg age 348 File #: 15 -0180, Item #: 4. Use permit licensed residential care facilities serving seven or more people in any residential zoning district. Efforts: An amendment to Title 19 of CVMC (Planning and Zoning) to define licensed residential care facilities as a use and to permit such facilities within residential zones is scheduled to be presented for City Council consideration by the end of 2015. 4. Chula Vista does not have zoning ordinances that permit transitional housing and supportive housing consistent with the requirements of S132. Efforts: An amendment to Title 19 of CVMC (Planning and Zoning) to define transitional housing and supportive housing as a use and to permit such housing within residential zones is scheduled to be presented for City Council consideration by the end of 2015. To overcome the impediments to Fair Housing Choice, the City supports these ongoing fair and affordable housing programs and policies as outlined within the Al. The City of Chula Vista is committed to fair housing practices that protect against housing discrimination due to race, color, religion, national origin, sex, disability, familial status, age, marital status, or sexual orientation, and places a high priority on promoting and ensuring open and free choice in housing for all persons. The City recognizes that free and equal access to residential housing (housing choice) is fundamental to meeting essential needs and pursuing personal, educational, employment or other goals. It is the City's intent to maintain and promote a nondiscriminatory environment in all aspects of the private and publicly funded housing markets within Chula Vista, and to foster compliance with the nondiscrimination provisions of the Fair Housing Act. DECISION -MAKER CONFLICT Staff has reviewed the decision contemplated by this action and has determined that it is not site specific and consequently, the 500 -foot rule found in the California Code of Regulations section 18704.02(a)(1) is not applicable to this decision. Staff is not independently aware, and has not been informed by any Council member, of any other fact that may constitute a basis for a decision maker conflict in this matter. LINK TO STRATEGIC GOALS The City's Strategic Plan has five major goals: Operational Excellence, Economic Vitality, Healthy Community, Strong and Secure Neighborhoods and a Connected Community. The Al supports the Economic Vitality goal 2.1.2 as it seeks to lower barriers to housing in the City of Chula Vista. CURRENT YEAR FISCAL IMPACT The City's share of the cost to prepare the Al was $9,900, which was funded through the Chula Vista Housing Authority budget. There is no fiscal impact resulting from accepting of the report and submittal to HUD. ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT As a planning document, acceptance of the report will have no direct fiscal impact to the City. No additional costs will be incurred in the submittal of the report to HUD. Costs associated with City of Chula Vista Page 3 of 4 Printed on 5/7/2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 349 File #: 15 -0180, Item #: 4. providing services and monitoring for fair housing related actions are covered by the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program.

Diversity among its residents, in terms of cultural backgrounds and socioeconomic characteristics, makes San Diego County a desirable area to live. To continue nurturing this diversity, civic leaders must ensure that an environment exists where equal access to housing opportunities is treated as a fundamental right. Purpose of the Analysis of Impediments The communities within San Diego County have established a commitment to providing equal housing opportunities for their existing and future residents. This report, the Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (commonly known as the "Al"), presents a demographic profile of San Diego County, assesses the extent of housing needs among specific income groups, and evaluates the range of available housing choices for residents. The Al also analyzes the conditions in the private market and public sector that may limit the range of housing choices or impede a person's access to housing. More importantly, this Al identifies impediments that may prevent equal housing access and develops solutions to mitigate or remove such impediments. Participating Jurisdictions The Al covers the entirety of San Diego County, including the 18 incorporated cities and all unincorporated areas: • City of Carlsbad • City of Chula Vista • City of Coronado • City of Del Mar • City of El Cajon • City of Encinitas • City of Escondido • City of Imperial Beach • City of La Mesa • City of Lemon Grove Community Outreach • City of National City • City of Oceanside • City of Poway • City of San Diego • City of San Marcos • City of Santee • City of Solana Beach • City of Vista • Unincorporated County The San Diego Regional Alliance for Fair Housing (SDRAFFH), comprised of representatives from the participating jurisdictions listed above, fair housing professionals, and housing advocates, helped coordinate the development of the Al, especially the outreach process. 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ES -1 Page 359 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Community Workshops As part of the Al development process, six community workshops were conducted. The workshop agenda included a presentation of the project purpose and background, followed by a facilitated, large group discussion that included an educational quiz. Simultaneous translation of the proceedings from English to Spanish language was provided by a certified translator via electronic headsets, when needed.

Specifically, most participants voiced a need to better understand, accommodate or address fair housing issues regarding: • Reasonable accommodation for persons with mental and physical disabilities; • Occupancy standards vs. overcrowding concerns, especially occupancy limit terms in leases vs. discrimination based on family size; • Unequal treatment of tenants based on immigration status (e.g.; delayed repairs, new and renewed leases); • Requirements for non - English languages in federally subsidized housing, • Source of income vs. Section 8 voucher concerns; and • Emerging and expanding contexts of fair housing issues, such as: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ES -2 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 360 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE • Emotional support and service animals (e.g., new requirements for property insurers; deposit requirements; animal certifications; species restrictions) • Medical directives and verification from international sources • Hoarding and the use of medical marijuana. ■ Outreach activities should be multi- faceted, utilizing different forms of media and targeting a wide variety of audiences, such as: neighborhood groups, trade organizations, etc. ■ Enforcement of fair housing laws should be pursued more rigorously. Fair housing service providers indicated that stronger enforcement would help deter housing discrimination. Additionally, publicizing the outcomes of fair housing lawsuits may help encourage victims to report housing discrimination and pursue litigation. Stakeholder Interviews One -on -one telephone interviews were conducted with housing and fair housing professionals, as well as agencies that serve and advocate for the needs of underserved groups (i.e. minorities, persons with disabilities, and other households with special needs). A total of eight interviews were conducted with representatives from the following agencies: • CSA San Diego County • Elder Help of San Diego • Fair Housing Center of the Legal Aid Society of San Diego, Inc. • La Maestra Community Health Centers • North County Lifeline • San Diego County Apartment Association • San Diego Regional Center • United Way of San Diego County The following summary of findings reflects collective input from the interviewees: ■ Challenges to building community awareness include: • Language barriers • Varying cultural norms and expectations • Confusing and conflicting laws and rules: federal, state and local • Engaging tenants and landlords before there is an issue • Lack of affordable housing • Tracking frequent changes to protected classes ■ Common fair housing misconceptions and misunderstandings include: • Confusing disability and accommodation requirements • Allowing cultural stereotypes to affect how people are served • Understanding entitlements for ADA requirements/ supports • Assuming they have more fair housing rights than is true (tenants) • Perceiving fair housing laws to be over - extended to their rights (landlords) 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ES -3 Page 361 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Fair Housing SurveX A Fair Housing Survey was made available throughout the County of San Diego from January 5, 2015 through February 13, 2015. The survey was available in English and Spanish online and in hard copy format. A total of 377 persons responded to the survey. Most of the surveys were completed online (360 surveys) and a total of 17 surveys were completed in Spanish. Among the 377 responses, 366 were residents in San Diego County. The majority of the respondents felt that housing discrimination was not an issue in their neighborhood. Approximately 72 percent indicated they had not experienced housing discrimination. Among those reporting a personal experience with housing discrimination, the basis for discrimination was reported to be race (33 percent), disability (29 percent), source of income (29 percent), familial status (25 percent), and age (22 percent). Community Profile Population Growth Examination of demographic characteristics provides some insight regarding the need and extent of equal access to housing in a community. Overall, San Diego County experienced a 10 percent increase in population from 2000 to 2010. During this period, the cities of San Marcos, Chula Vista, and Carlsbad had the largest growth while the cities of Del Mar, Imperial Beach, Poway, and Solana Beach experienced a drop in population. The median age in San Diego County is increasing steadily. Based on the 2010 Census, 11.4 percent of the population in San Diego County was age 65 or over (elderly), with another 10.6 percent in the 55 to 64 age group (future elderly). Race /Ethnicit San Diego County's residents have become increasingly diverse in their race and ethnic compositions since 1970. In 2000, Whites made up the majority of the population in the San Diego region but by 2010, minority residents made up a slight majority (51.5 percent). The largest racial /ethnic group in the County is Hispanic. Racial Segregation and Linguistic Isolation When looking at Hispanic /White segregation among the largest 200 cities in the country in 2010, San Diego ranked 12th most segregated. Language barriers can be an impediment to accessing housing of choice. In San Diego County, 16.3 percent of residents indicated they spoke English "less than very well" and can be considered linguistically isolated. have the highest percentage of total residents who residents were Spanish speakers. The cities of National City, Vista, and Escondido spoke English "less than very well ". Most of these Racially /Ethnically Concentrated Areas of Poverty RECAPs) In an effort to identify racially/ ethnically concentrated areas of poverty (RECAPS), the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has identified census tracts with a majority non -White population (greater than 50 percent) and a poverty rate that exceeds 40 percent or exceeds 300% of the metro /micro tract average. Within San Diego County, there are RECAPS scattered in small sections of Oceanside, San Marcos, Escondido, El Cajon, La Mesa, Lemon Grove, National City, Chula Vista and Imperial Beach. Larger RECAP clusters can be seen in the central/ southern portion of the City of San Diego. In 2010, there were 173,692 persons living in a RECAP in the County, or 5.6 percent of the County's total population. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ES -4 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 362 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Housing Age and Condition Assessing housing conditions in the County can provide the basis for developing policies and programs to maintain and preserve the quality of the housing stock. Housing age can indicate general housing conditions within a community. The County's housing stock is older, with a majority of the housing units (61 percent) built before 1979. The highest percentages of pre -1980 housing units are generally found in the older, urbanized neighborhoods in the cities of La Mesa, Lemon Grove, El Cajon, San Diego, Coronado and National City. These cities are the most likely to have the largest proportion of housing units in need of rehabilitation. Home rehabilitation can be an obstacle for senior homeowners with fixed incomes and mobility issues. Housing Cost and Affordability The cost of homeownership varies within San Diego County depending on the community. In 2014, the median sales price for a home in San Diego County was $430,000, an increase of 3.6 percent from 2013. Home prices vary by area /jurisdiction, with very high median prices in coastal areas such as the cities of Coronado, Del Mar, Solana Beach, and the La Jolla area of the City of San Diego. National City had the lowest median sales price among the incorporated jurisdictions. The San Diego County Apartment Association (SDCAA) publishes average rental rates biannually. The estimated average rental costs in San Diego County in the fall of 2014 were $812 for a studio, $1,066 for a one - bedroom, $1,463 for a two- bedroom, and $1,813 for a three- bedroom. Adverse Community Factors The California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) developed a screening methodology, called the California Communities Environmental Health Screening Tool (CalEnviroScreen), to help identify California communities that are disproportionately burdened by multiple sources of pollution. The CalEnviroScreen reveals that high scoring communities tend to be more burdened by pollution from multiple sources and most vulnerable to its effects, taking into account their socioeconomic characteristics and underlying health status. In San Diego County, the areas indicated as having higher EnviroScreen scores generally match the geographic distribution of minorities, low- and moderate - income persons, and poverty concentrations. Lending Practices Overall Lending Patterns A key aspect of fair housing choice is equal access to credit for the purchase or improvement of a home, particularly in light of the recent lending /credit crisis. In 2013, a total of 32,571 households applied for conventional loans to purchase homes in San Diego County, representing a decrease of approximately 18 percent from 2008. Despite this decrease, these 2013 figures represent an increase from the number of applications recorded in 2011 and 2012. This trend is indicative of a housing market that is slowly recovering from its peak in 2006 -2007. The cities of San Diego, Chula Vista, and Oceanside recorded the most loan applications, while the cities of Del Mar, Coronado, and Solana Beach recorded the fewest due to the built out character of these small communities. Applications from the cities of Poway, La Mesa, Santee, and Encinitas generally exhibited higher approval rates (over 73 percent). By contrast, 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ES -5 Page 363 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE applications from the cities of National City, Lemon Grove, and Chula Vista had slightly lower approval rates (ranging from 63 percent to 68 percent). Overall, approval rates were noticeably higher in 2013 than in 2008. Aside from income, another major impediment to securing a home loan is insufficient understanding of the homebuying and lending processes. About 14 percent of all applications countywide were withdrawn by the applicants or deemed incomplete by the financial institution in 2013. Lending by Race /EthnicitX In an ideal environment, the applicant pool for mortgage lending should be reflective of the demographics of a community. When one racial /ethnic group is overrepresented or underrepresented in the total applicant pool, it could be an indicator of unequal access to housing opportunities. Throughout San Diego County, White applicants were noticeably overrepresented in the loan applicant pool, while Hispanics were severely underrepresented. The underrepresentation of Hispanics was most acute in the cities of Imperial Beach ( -33 percent), Vista ( -35 percent), and Escondido ( -36 percent). Top Lenders In 2013, about 47 percent (79,185 applications) of all loan applications in San Diego County were submitted to one of the County's top ten lenders. The region's top three lenders have remained fairly consistent since 2008, with the only significant changes being the purchase of Countrywide Bank by Bank of America and Wells Fargo's acquisition of Wachovia Mortgage. Approval rates for the County's top lenders fluctuated substantially by institution and jurisdiction; however, as noted before, overall approval rates have increased markedly since 2008. Subprime Lending Subprime lending can both impede and extend fair housing choice. While Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA) data does not classify loans as subprime, it does track the interest rate spread on loans. In 2005, the Federal Reserve Board required lenders to report rate spreads for loans whose Annual Percentage Rate (APR) was above the U.S. Department of the Treasury benchmark. Loans with a reported spread are typically referred to as higher - priced or subprime loans. The number of subprime loans issued has decreased substantially over time. In 2008, about five percent of all loans issued could be considered subprime but, by 2013, less than two percent of loans issued were subprime loans. Black and Hispanic applicants seem to be significantly more likely to receive these higher -priced loans. In 2008, Blacks and Hispanics were twice as likely as Whites and Asians to receive a subprime loan. This discrepancy was less noticeable in 2013, but Black and Hispanic applicants continued to get higher - priced loans more frequently than White and Asian applicants. Distribution of Affordable Housing and Residential Care Facilities Based on the ratio of beds per 1,000 persons, licensed care facilities in San Diego County are most concentrated in Lemon Grove, Escondido, La Mesa, and El Cajon and are least concentrated in Imperial Beach. The City of El Cajon has a high concentration of Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) use. El Cajon represents about three percent of the County population but more than nine percent of the HCV use. National City also has a relatively high concentration of HCV use. National City represents about two percent of the total population but more than four percent of the vouchers issued in San Diego County. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ES -6 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 364 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE San Diego County has a large inventory of affordable housing units. The distribution of these units, however, is uneven throughout the region, with dense clusters of assisted housing located in central San Diego, National City, Chula Vista and Escondido. Almost three - quarters (73 percent) of the region's rent - restricted multi - family housing stock is concentrated in these four cities. Fnreclncnrec As of February 2015, less than one percent of the County's housing stock was in one of the various stages of foreclosure. A foreclosure "hot spots" analysis using recent foreclosure data indicates that Chula Vista, National City, and East San Diego County have higher rates of foreclosure. Public Policies Housing Element Compliance Public policies established at the regional and local levels can affect housing development and therefore, may have an impact on the range and location of housing choices available to residents. A Housing Element found by the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) to be in compliance with State law is presumed to have adequately addressed its policy constraints. According to HCD, of the 19 participating jurisdictions (including the County), 17 Housing Elements were in compliance. The cities of Carlsbad and Encinitas have not yet adopted housing elements for the 2013- 2021 planning period. Zoning Amendments to Remove Impediments to Special Needs Housing As part of the 2013 -2021 Housing Element update, most jurisdictions have already addressed the provisions for special needs housing. However, some jurisdictions in the region have yet to address issues such as: • Definition of family • Density bonus • Residential care facilities • Emergency shelters • Transitional/ supportive housing • Single -room occupancy housing • Farmworker housing • Employee housing • Reasonable accommodation Fair Housing Data Four agencies provided fair housing services to San Diego County residents: CSA San Diego County (CSA), Legal Aid Society of San Diego (LASSD), Housing Opportunities Collaborative (HOC), and North County Lifeline (NCL). CSA San Diego County (CSA): Between FY 2009 -10 to FY 2013 -14, CSA provided fair housing services to over 700 San Diego County residents per year —for a total of 3,559 clients over the five -year EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ES -7 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 365 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE period. The majority of all complaints filed pertained to allegations of discrimination due to race /color (35 percent), disability (27 percent) and national origin (12 percent). Legal Aid Society of San Diego (LASSD): Between May 2012 and December 2014, LASSD provided housing services to approximately 10,000 San Diego County residents. These housing services include: landlord /tenant disputes, foreclosure and eviction avoidance, and fair housing services. LASSD reports having investigated a total of 304 fair housing cases between May 2012 and December 2014 — about three percent of all housing complaints made to LASSD during that time period. A majority of these cases (64 percent) were complaints based on discrimination due to a disability. Another 11 and 10 percent, respectively, were complaints based on disparate treatment due to race (33 cases) and national origin (29 cases). Housing Opportunities Collaborative (HOC): In FY 2012 -13 to FY 2013 -14, HOC received 1,093 fair housing inquiries. As a result, 167 fair housing complaints were filed with the HOC and referred out for legal assistance. Over half (51 percent) of all complaints filed were related to disability. North County Lifeline (NCL): NCL provided services to 1,431 clients FY 2010 -11 and FY 2014 -15 to residents in its service area. Most clients resided in the City of Escondido (479 clients) and Oceanside (373 clients). Of the 130 cases reported, nearly 60 percent were filed based on discrimination due to a disability or the request of a reasonable accommodation or modification. In addition, as the lead agency for the North County Lifeline Collaborative, NCL oversaw fair housing services to another 2,336 clients between FY2009 -10 and FY 2013 -14. The majority of these clients resided in the County's unincorporated areas (47 percent), the City of San Diego (27 percent) and the City of Lemon Grove (10 percent). Through the NCL Housing Collaborative, 100 cases were filed and nearly 40 percent of all cases reported discrimination on the basis of disability and another 24 percent were filed on the basis of discrimination towards race /color. Other Fair Housing Agencies: In addition, fair housing complaints were filed with HUD and with the State Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH) for investigation and enforcement: DFEH: Since 2009, a total of 440 fair housing complaints in the San Diego County have been filed with DFEH. The majority of complaints alleged housing discrimination based on: physical disabilities (143 instances), familial /marital status (69 instances), or race /color (58 instances). The greatest numbers of complaints were filed in the cities of San Diego, Oceanside and Chula Vista. A single complaint can involve multiple acts of discrimination. A total of 512 acts of discrimination have been recorded in San Diego County since 2009, with the cities of San Diego (228 acts), Chula Vista (35 acts) and El Cajon (33 acts) having the most number of reported incidents. "Unequal access to facilities /denied reasonable accommodation" was the most often cited act of discrimination (125 instances); but "harassment" (95 instances) and "eviction" (82 instances) were also commonly reported. HUD: From January 1, 2008 to December 31, 2014, 442 fair housing cases in San Diego County were filed with HUD, with 177 of those cases filed by residents in the City of San Diego. Overall, EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ES -8 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 366 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE disability- related cases were the most common — comprising 47 percent of all cases. Cases concerning race (14 percent) familial /marital status and retaliation (12 percent each), and national origin (10 percent) were also regularly reported. According to the fair housing survey conducted as part of this Al, race, disability, and source of income were identified by respondents as the leading bases for discrimination. The survey also indicated that housing discrimination in the County was severely underreported. Only 18 (25 percent) of the 90 people who experienced housing discrimination reported the incident, according to the survey results. Fair Housing Impediments Based on the analysis conducted for this Al, the following is a list of fair housing impediments identified in San Diego County: ■ Education and Outreach: Educational and outreach literature regarding fair housing issues, rights, and services on websites or at public counters is limited. Fair housing education is identified as one of the most important strategies for furthering fair housing. However, traditional outreach methods of publishing notices and press releases in newspapers and posting information on websites are not adequate to reach the general public with diverse needs and interests. Outreach methods should be expanded to include other media of communications, and also utilize networks of neighborhood groups and organizations. • Lending and Credit Counseling: Throughout San Diego County, White applicants were noticeably overrepresented in the loan applicant pool, while Hispanics were severely underrepresented. Black and Hispanic applicants also seem to be significantly more likely to receive subprime loans. The SDRAFFH and jurisdictions should meet with the lending community to discuss ways to expand access to financing for all but especially for minority households. • Overconcentration of Housing Choice Voucher's: Due to the geographic disparity in terms of rents, concentrations of Housing Choice Voucher use have occurred. El Cajon and National City continue to experience high rates of voucher use. ■ Housing Options: Housing options for special needs groups, especially for seniors and persons with disabilities, are limited. Affordable programs and public housing projects have long waiting lists. More than 25 percent of the applicant- households on the waiting lists for Housing Choice Vouchers or Public Housing include one disabled member. Approximately eight percent of the applicant- households on the waiting list for Public Housing and 10 percent on the waiting list for Housing Choice Vouchers are seniors. ■ Regional Collaboration: Fair housing services focus primarily on outreach and education; less emphasis is placed on enforcement. Rigorous enforcement of fair housing laws is most effective in deterring housing discrimination. However, not enough enforcement activities are pursued. Fair housing service providers should encourage victims to pursue litigation and refer victims to 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ES -9 Page 367 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE agencies and organizations with the capacity to handle litigation. Also, favorable outcomes in litigation should be publicized to encourage other victims to come forward. Public Policies: Various land use policies, zoning provisions, and development regulations may affect the range of housing choice available. Several jurisdictions within the County have yet to update their zoning ordinances to address special needs housing. Jurisdictions should implement their Housing Element program commitments to amend the zoning ordinances in a timely manner. ■ Racial Segregation: In 2010, about 5.6 percent of the County's total population lived in a RECAP (racially /ethnically concentrated areas of poverty). These areas are also more impacted by adverse environmental factors such as hazardous materials. Local housing policies should work to promote the distribution of affordable housing throughout the community and offer a range of housing choices. Linguistic Isolation: A significant proportion of San Diego County residents indicated they spoke English "less than very well" and can be considered linguistically isolated. Entitlement jurisdictions should periodically update their Limited English Proficiency (LEP) plans to ensure language assistance reflects the changing demographics of the communities. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ES -10 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 368 INTRODUCTION an Diego County, one of the most populous counties in the nation, is home to over 3 million residents and an increasingly diverse demographic. The County encompasses 19 incorporated cities and more than 25 rural and urban unincorporated neighborhoods and communities. Diversity among its residents, in terms of cultural backgrounds and socioeconomic characteristics, makes San Diego County a desirable area to live. To continue nurturing this diversity, civic leaders must ensure that an environment exists where equal access to housing opportunities is treated as a fundamental right. A. Purpose of Report The communities within San Diego County have established a commitment to providing equal housing opportunities for their existing and future residents. Through the federally funded Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME) programs, among other state and local programs, the jurisdictions of San Diego County work to provide a decent living environment for all. Pursuant to CDBG regulations [24 CFR Subtitle A �91.225 (a) (1)], to receive CDBG funds, a jurisdiction must certify that it "actively furthers fair housing choice" through the following: Completion of an Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI); Actions to eliminate identified impediments; and Maintenance of fair housing records. This report, the Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (commonly known as the "Al"), presents a demographic profile of the County of San Diego, assesses the extent of fair housing issues among specific groups, and evaluates the availability of a range of housing choices for all residents. This report also analyzes the conditions in the private market and public sector that may limit the range of housing choices or impede a person's access to housing. CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 1 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 369 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE 1. Geographic Area Covered The Al covers the entirety of San Diego County, including the 18 incorporated cities and all unincorporated areas: • City of Carlsbad • City of Chula Vista • City of Coronado • City of Del Mar • City of El Cajon • City of Encinitas • City of Escondido • City of Imperial Beach • City of La Mesa • City of Lemon Grove • City of National City • City of Oceanside • City of Poway • City of San Diego • City of San Marcos • City of Santee • City of Solana Beach • City of Vista • Unincorporated County B. Fair Housing Legal Framework Fair housing is a right protected by both Federal and State of California laws. Among these laws, virtually every housing unit in California is subject to fair housing practices. 1. Federal Laws The Fair Housing Act of 1968 and Fair Housing Amendments Act of 1988 (42 U.S. Code �� 3601 -3619, 3631) are federal fair housing laws that prohibit discrimination in all aspects of housing, including the sale, rental, lease, or negotiation for real property. The Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination based on the following protected classes: • Race or color • Religion • Sex • Familial status • National origin • Disability (mental or physical) Specifically, it is unlawful to: ■ Refuse to sell or rent after the making of a bona fide offer, or to refuse to negotiate for the sale or rental of, or otherwise make unavailable or deny, a dwelling to any person because of race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, or national origin. ■ Discriminate against any person in the terms, conditions, or privileges of sale or rental of a dwelling, or in the provision of services or facilities in connection therewith, because of race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, or national origin. CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 2 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 370 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE ■ Make, print, or publish, or cause to be made, printed, or published any notice, statement, or advertisement, with respect to the sale or rental of a dwelling that indicates any preference, limitation, or discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, or national origin, or an intention to make any such preference, limitation, or discrimination. ■ Represent to any person because of race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, or national origin that any dwelling is not available for inspection, sale, or rental when such dwelling is in fact so available. ■ For profit, induce or attempt to induce any person to sell or rent any dwelling by representations regarding the entry or prospective entry into the neighborhood of a person or persons of a particular race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, or national origin. Reasonable Accommodations and Accessibility The Fair Housing Amendments Act requires owners of housing facilities to make "reasonable accommodations" (exceptions) in their rules, policies, and operations to give people with disabilities equal housing opportunities. For example, a landlord with a "no pets" policy may be required to grant an exception to this rule and allow an individual who is blind to keep a guide dog in the residence. The Fair Housing Act also requires landlords to allow tenants with disabilities to make reasonable access - related modifications to their private living space, as well as to common use spaces, at the tenant's own expense. Finally, the Act requires that new multi - family housing with four or more units be designed and built to allow access for persons with disabilities. This includes accessible common use areas, doors that are wide enough for wheelchairs, kitchens and bathrooms that allow a person using a wheelchair to maneuver, and other adaptable features within the units. HUD Final Rule on Equal Access to Housing in HUD Programs On March 5, 2012, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) published the Final Rule on "Equal Access to Housing in HUD Programs Regardless of Sexual Orientation or Gender Identity." It applies to all McKinney - Vento- funded homeless programs, as well as to permanent housing assisted or insured by HUD. The rule creates a new regulatory provision that generally prohibits considering a person's marital status, sexual orientation, or gender identity (a person's internal sense of being male or female) in making homeless housing assistance available. 2. California Laws The State Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH) enforces California laws that provide protection and monetary relief to victims of unlawful housing practices. The Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) (Government Code Section 12955 et seq.) prohibits discrimination and harassment in housing practices, including: • Advertising • Application and selection process • Unlawful evictions 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 3 Page 371 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE • Terms and conditions of tenancy • Privileges of occupancy • Mortgage loans and insurance • Public and private land use practices (zoning) • Unlawful restrictive covenants The following categories are protected by FEHA: • Race or color • Ancestry or national origin • Sex • Marital status • Source of income • Sexual orientation • Familial status (households with children under 18 years of age) • Religion • Mental /physical disability • Medical condition • Age • Gender Identity • Gender Expression • Genetic Information In addition, the FEHA contains similar reasonable accommodations and accessibility provisions as the federal Fair Housing Amendments Act. The Unruh Civil Rights Act provides protection from discrimination by all business establishments in California, including housing and accommodations, because of age, ancestry, color, disability, national origin, race, religion, sex, and sexual orientation. While the Unruh Civil Rights Act specifically lists "sex, race, color, religion, ancestry, national origin, disability, and medical condition" as protected classes, the California Supreme Court has held that protections under the Unruh Act are not necessarily restricted to these characteristics. Furthermore, the Ralph Civil Rights Act (California Civil Code Section 51.7) forbids acts of violence or threats of violence because of a person's race, color, religion, ancestry, national origin, age, disability, sex, sexual orientation, political affiliation, or position in a labor dispute. Hate violence can be: verbal or written threats; physical assault or attempted assault; and graffiti, vandalism, or property damage. The Bane Civil Rights Act (California Civil Code Section 52.1) provides another layer of protection for fair housing choice by protecting all people in California from interference by force or threat of force with an individual's constitutional or statutory rights, including a right to equal access to housing. The Bane Act also includes criminal penalties for hate crimes; however, convictions under the Act are not allowed for speech alone unless that speech itself threatened violence. CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 4 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 372 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE And, finally, California Civil Code Section 1940.3 prohibits landlords from questioning potential residents about their immigration or citizenship status. Landlords in most states are free to inquire about a potential tenant's immigration status and to reject applicants who are in the United States illegally.' In addition, this law forbids local jurisdictions from passing laws that direct landlords to make inquiries about a person's citizenship or immigration status. In addition to these acts, Government Code Sections 11135, 65008, and 65580 - 65589.8 prohibit discrimination in programs funded by the State and in any land use decisions. Specifically, recent changes to Sections 65580 - 65589.8 require local jurisdictions to address the provision of housing options for special needs groups, including: • Housing for persons with disabilities (SB 520) • Housing for homeless persons, including emergency shelters, transitional housing, and supportive housing (SB 2) • Housing for extremely low income households, including single -room occupancy units (AB 2634) • Housing for persons with developmental disabilities (SB 812) C. Fair Housing Defined In light of the various pieces of fair housing legislation passed at the Federal and State levels, fair housing throughout this report is defined as follows: A condition in which individuals of similar * come levels in the same housing market have a like range of choice available to them regardless of their characteristics asprotected under State and Federal laws. 1. Housing Issues, Affordability, and Fair Housing HUD's Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity (FHEO) draws a distinction between housing affordability and fair housing. Economic factors that affect a household's housing choices are not fair housing issues per se. Only when the relationship between household income, household type, race /ethnicity, and other factors create misconceptions, biases, and differential treatments would fair housing concerns arise. Tenant /landlord disputes are also typically not related to fair housing. Most disputes between tenants and landlords result from a lack of understanding by either or both parties on their rights and responsibilities. Tenant /landlord disputes and housing discrimination cross paths when the disputes are based on factors protected by fair housing laws and result in differential treatment. 1 HTTP: / /WWW.NOLO.COM /LEGAL - UPDATE /CALIFORNIA- LANDLORDS- ASK - IMMIGRATION- CITIZENSHIP- 29214.HTML 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 5 Page 373 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE 2. Fair Housing Impediments Within the legal framework of Federal and State laws, and based on the guidance provided by HUD's Fair Housing Planning Guide, impediments to fair housing choice can be defined as: ■ Any actions, omissions, or decisions taken because of the characteristics protected under State and Federal laws, which restrict housing choices or the availability of housing choices; or ■ Any actions, omissions or decisions which have the effect of restricting housing choices or the availability of housing choices on the basis of characteristics protected under State and Federal laws. To affirmatively promote equal housing opportunity, a community must work to remove impediments to fair housing choice. D. Organization of Report This report is divided into seven chapters: Chapter 1: Introduction defines "fair housing" and explains the purpose of this report. Chapter 2: Community Participation describes the community outreach program and summarizes comments from residents and various agencies on fair housing issues such as discrimination, housing impediments, and housing trends. Chapter 3: Community Profile presents the demographic, housing, and income characteristics in San Diego County. Major employers and transportation access to job centers are identified. The relationships among these variables are discussed. In addition, this section evaluates whether community care facilities, public and assisted housing projects, as well as Section 8 recipients in the County are unduly concentrated in Low and Moderate Income areas. Also, the degree of housing segregation based on race is discussed. Chapter 4: Mortgage Lending Practices assesses the access to financing for different groups. Predatory and subprime lending issues are discussed. Chapter 5: Public Policies analyzes various public policies and actions that may impede fair housing within the County and the participating cities. Chapter 6: Current Fair Housing Profile evaluates existing public and private programs, services, practices, and activities that assist in providing fair housing in the County. This chapter also assesses the nature and extent of fair housing complaints and violations in different areas of the County. Trends and patterns of impediments to fair housing, as identified by public and private agencies, are included. Chapter 7: Impediments and Recommendations summarizes the findings regarding fair housing issues in San Diego County and provides recommendations for furthering fair housing practices. CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 6 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 374 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE At the beginning of this report, are Signature Pages that include the signatures of the Chief Elected Officials, together with a statement certifying that the Analysis of Impediments represents the jurisdictions' official conclusions regarding impediments to fair housing choice and the actions necessary to address identified impediments. 1. Data Sources According to the Fair Hou ing Planning Guide, HUD does not require the jurisdictions to commence a data collection effort to complete the Al. Existing data can be used to review the nature and extent of potential issues. Various data and existing documents were reviewed to complete this Al, including: ■ 1990, 2000, and 2010 U.S. Census ■ American Community Surveysz ■ 2014 State Department of Finance Population and Housing Estimates ■ 1985 Fair Housing Assessment for the City of San Diego ■ 1988 Fair Housing Assessment for the City of San Diego ■ 1992 -2000 Fair Housing Assessment for the Urban County, City of San Marcos and City of Chula Vista ■ 1996 San Diego Regional Al ■ 1996 City of Vista Al ■ 2000 Urban County Al ■ 2000 San Diego Regional Area Al ■ 2005 San Diego Regional Al ■ 2010 San Diego Regional Al ■ Zoning ordinances, various plans, and resolutions of participating jurisdictions ■ California Department of Social Services Community Care Licensing Division ■ 2014 Employment Development Department employment and wage data ■ 2008 and 2013 Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA) data on lending activities from LendingPatterns''M ■ Current market data for rental rates, home prices, and foreclosure activities ■ Fair housing records from the Housing Rights Center ■ Housing Choice Voucher (Section 8) data from local Housing Authorities ■ California Department of Education Sources of specific information are identified in the text, tables, and figures. 2 The 2010 Census no longer provides detailed demographic or housing data through the "long form ". Instead, the Census Bureau conducts a series of American Community Surveys (ACS) to collect detailed data. The ACS surveys different variables at different schedules (e.g. every year, every three years, or every five years) depending on the size of the community. Multiple sets of ACS data are required to compile the data for San Diego County in this report. CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 7 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 375 COMMUNITY OUTREACH his Analysis of Impediments (Al) report has been developed to provide an overview of laws, regulations, conditions, or other possible obstacles that may affect an individual's or a household's access to housing. As part of this effort, the report incorporates the issues and concerns of residents, housing professionals, and service providers. To assure the report responds to community needs, a community outreach program consisting of community workshops, targeted stakeholder interviews, and a fair housing survey was conducted in the development of this report. This chapter describes the community outreach program conducted to involve the community. A. Outreach to the Community To reach the various segments of the community, several methods were used to obtain community input: 1. Community Workshops Six community workshops Targeted stakeholder interviews to service providers and local organizations Fair housing survey Appendix A contains further background on the outreach strategy, copies of workshop flyers, surveys, and summary of meeting notes. Six community workshops were held in communities throughout the County in January and February 2015 to gather input regarding fair housing issues in the region. The locations and dates of the meetings were as follows: CHAPTER 2: COMMUNITY OUTREACH 8 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 376 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Table 1: Community Meeting Locations Area Location Date North County Escondido City Hall, Escondido, CA January 20, 2015 Central County Jacobs Center for Neighborhood Innovation, San Diego, CA January 21, 2015 South County City of Chula Vista —Civic Center, Chula Vista, CA January 27, 2015 East County City of El Cajon —Police Department Community Room, El Cajon, CA January 28, 2015 City of San Diego Belden Apartments Community Room, San Diego, CA February 4, 2015 City of Encinitas City of Encinitas City Hall, Poinsettia Room, Encinitas, CA February 10, 2015 To encourage attendance and participation, the workshops were publicized through the following methods: • Flyers publicizing the four community workshops in English and Spanish were mailed to nearly 1,000 agencies and organizations and interested individuals throughout the County, including a wide range of housing service providers and community organizations such as community planning groups, housing development corporations, service providers, housing industry professionals, civic organizations, housing authorities, housing groups, business organizations, religious organizations, schools, and local elected officials' offices. • Flyers in English and Spanish were posted on the websites of the participating cities and the County. • Flyers in English and Spanish were placed at public counters such as city halls, libraries, and community centers. • Email -based ( "e- blast ") notifications through the participating agencies' email networks. • Content for participating agencies' and stakeholders' communication channels such as newsletters, public service announcements, websites, and cable television channels. • Social media: posts, tweets, and notices. • Press releases. 2. Workshop Participants A total of 81 individuals attended the community meetings. Aside from interested individuals and staff from the various cities and the County, several service providers and housing professionals participated in the fair housing workshops. These included: • Community Housing Works • CSA San Diego County - Fair Housing • Housing Navigators Homeless 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet n F: CHAPTER 2: COMMUNITY OUTREACH 9 Page 377 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE • Housing Opportunities Collaborative • Legal Aid Society San Diego • MAAC Project, Kimball • San Diego Housing Commission • Solutions for Change • Tirey & St. John LLP • San Dieguito Alliance • Community Resource Center — North Coast Community 3. Key Issues Identified In reviewing the comments received at these workshops, several key issues are noted: ■ There is need to understand and meet disability accommodation needs in emerging or expanding contexts and conditions. Issues of concern include mental health, emotional support, and addressing unique or niche disability areas (i.e. hoarding). More education of both landlords and tenants regarding accommodation procedures, requirements, and financial responsibilities are needed. ■ Residents of specific races or national origins have disproportionate or growing housing needs. Throughout the County these resident group commonly include Hispanic /Latino, African, Somali, or Middle Eastern persons. ■ The immigration status and English speaking ability of residents often leads to unfair accommodation policies and overall unequal treatment by landlords. ■ Improvements in the equal enforcement of property requirements, occupancy standards, and expectations as related to familial status are needed. ■ Education for both landlords and tenants about housing discrimination issues based on income is insufficient. ■ Tenants generally lack awareness how Home Owners Association (HOA) requirements and roles related to fair housing. ■ Home Owners' Associations (HOAs) can be overly restrictive and need to understand their limitations in enforcing policies. Fair housing education should be expanded to reach HOAs and training in fair housing regulations should be provided. ■ Specific communities and housing types (i.e. affordable, multi - family, rental) experience more fair housing issues. ■ Enforcement activities (i.e. investigations and testing) based on prevailing levels of discrimination cases are insufficient. ■ Discrimination issues are prevalent in the application process (i.e. criminal activities versus background checks). CHAPTER 2: COMMUNITY OUTREACH 10 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 378 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE ■ Many non -fair housing issues, including landlord- tenant issues, are misidentified as fair housing issues. For example: occupancy limits and control over lease terms, property rules, renter tenant influence on HOAs, domestic and family violence, Housing Choice Voucher requirements, and the protection of existing mobile home parks /organizations. ■ There is a need for more fair housing workshops that reach out to landlords. Landlords need to know their rights /limitations in selecting new tenants and removing problem tenants. Landlords need to be aware that fair housing services are also accessible to them. ■ There is a need for more fair housing education and advocacy for victims of domestic violence. Fair housing training should be used as a tool to help stabilize these individuals in their environment and teach them how to be aggressive renters in the market. It's necessary to provide support for those on the verge of homelessness. ■ Areas of fair housing that need strengthening in San Diego County: o Community outreach and understanding of fair housing practices and requirements. o Expand and enhance training, professional development and education, especially for landlords. o Expand the level of enforcement. o Simplify, streamline, and clarify processes for receiving fair housing support, particularly related to reasonable accommodation. o Reduce the costs for accessing support and participating in the legal process. The comments received during these community workshops have been incorporated into this Al as appropriate and documented in Appendix A. B. Targeted Stakeholder Interviews In addition to the input given by representatives from local organizations in attendance at the community workshops, key stakeholders were contacted for one -on -one interviews about the Al. Participants represented organizations that provide fair housing services and /or complementary and related support services. A representative from each of the following organizations participated in a telephone interview: • Affordable Housing Advocates • CSA San Diego County • Elder Help of San Diego • Fair Housing Center of the Legal Aid Society of San Diego, Inc. • La Maestra Community Health Centers 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet CHAPTER 2: COMMUNITY OUTREACH 11 Page 379 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE • North County Lifeline • San Diego County Apartment Association • San Diego Regional Center • United Way of San Diego County 1. Key Issues Identified In reviewing the comments received at these interviews, several key issues are noted: ■ There are a variety of challenges to building community awareness about fair housing: o Residents lack general knowledge of the Fair Housing Act and laws at various levels (federal, state, and local) make it even more difficult to engage. o Difficult to engage and educate a broad range of cultures, especially given a lack of education and outreach resources. o Difficult to engage and educate new landlords and prevent issues from occurring. ■ Misconceptions and misunderstandings as to what constitutes fair housing issues are pervasive throughout the County: o Barriers such as immigration status, English speaking ability, disability status, create challenges in understanding exactly what rights are protected. o Landlord assumptions of ownership rights often over extend fair housing laws. o Lacking community empathy for community members with fair housing, section 8, and affordable housing needs adds to the confusion as to when residents should seek assistance. ■ San Diego regional agencies face numerous challenges that inhibit their abilities to provide residents with services: • Limited resources make it difficult to meet demand for services, performance testing, and research and enforcement. • Overall education efforts to promote awareness to residents about who they should contact through workshops and outreach to housing complexes is not enough. • Accommodating the housing needs of persons with disabilities is difficult due to confusion with laws and requirements. • A lack of knowledge of rights is making it difficult to service the increasing number of residents with mental health issues. • Difficult to separate access and affordability from fair housing needs. ■ Service levels by protected classes vary throughout the County: o Persons with disabilities, especially the County's aging population, face growing confusion in obtaining services. CHAPTER 2: COMMUNITY OUTREACH 12 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 380 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE o Detection capability of residents with issues related to race, national origin, and language accessibility needs improvement. o Lack of focus on addressing growth in Middle Eastern cultural groups. o Additional household groups that need assistance include those who face familial status, sex and gender identity, religious, and non - violent criminal re -entry housing issues. ■ Need to partner with complementary service providers to leverage existing community assets: o Strengthen training commitments and expand opportunities. o Engage businesses, philanthropy sector, and grassroots organizations to communicate how fair housing issues affect them and why their support is needed. o Work with community leaders who are relevant to protected classes in need. ■ Expand inter- agency collaboration opportunities: • Strengthen successes of the SDRAFFH. • Increase support from municipalities' resources. • Better utilize public and corporate partners' outreach channels and strengthen connections to the network of advocacy and referral organizations. • Explore how to better leverage FHA funded agencies and partnership opportunities with partners such as San Diego Association of Governments. • Refine collective approach to serve those most in need based on demographic and community changes. ■ Need to address growing levels of segregation in communities and neighborhoods on a regional scale, which may be inadvertently creating disparate impacts. ■ Continue analyzing the Al and regional planning to sharpen focus and engage regional planning about fair housing more frequently than five years. ■ Explore a more integrated, best practice model of service integration and collaboration. The comments received during these interviews have been incorporated into this Al, as appropriate, and documented in Appendix A. C. Fair Housing Survey The Fair Housing Survey sought to gain knowledge about the nature and extent of fair housing issues experienced and also to gauge the perception of fair housing needs and concerns of County residents. The survey was made available in both English and Spanish on the websites of the County and all participating jurisdictions. Hard copies of the survey were also provided to a number of local agencies for distribution to their clients. The community workshop flyer, including links to the online survey, was also mailed to over 1,000 housing and service providers, encouraging them to provide their unique perspective by participating in the Community Needs Survey. CHAPTER 2: COMMUNITY OUTREACH 13 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 381 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Because responses to the survey were not controlled, results of the survey are used only to provide some insight regarding fair housing issues, but cannot be treated as a statistically valid survey. Furthermore, the survey asked for respondents of their perception in housing discrimination. A person responding having been discriminated does not necessarily mean discrimination has actually taken place. 1. Who Responded to the Survey? A total of 377 persons responded to the Housing Discrimination Survey. The majority of survey respondents felt that housing discrimination was not an issue in their neighborhoods. A total of 366 respondents answered questions related to fair housing (excluding responses from non - County residents). Of the 366 responses, approximately 72 percent (265 persons) had not experienced housing discrimination. A copy of the survey is included as Appendix A. 2. Who Do You Believe Discriminated Against You? 4 Among the persons indicating that they had experienced housing discrimination, 72 percent (70 persons) indicated that a landlord or property manager had discriminated against them, while 10 percent (10 persons) of respondents identified a Government staff person as the source of discrimination. Responses for the fair housing survey are not mutually exclusive; respondents had the option of listing multiple perpetrators of discrimination. Table 2: Perpetrators of Alleged Discrimination Notes: 1. Categories are not mutually exclusive. 2. Survey respondents were not required to provide answers for every question; therefore, total responses will vary by question. 3 A survey with a "controlled" sample would, through various techniques, "control' the socioeconomic characteristics of the respondents to ensure that the respondents are representative of the general population. This type of survey would provide results that are statistically valid but is much more costly to administer. 4 Because respondents could indicate multiple answers on a single questions, the percentages on these multiple choice questions do not add up to 100 percent nor do the total number answers add up to the total number of respondents.

Requests for Reasonable Accommodation Among those responded to the fair housing questions, 19 percent (17 persons) indicated that they had been denied "reasonable accommodation" in rules, policies or practices for their disability. Generally, typical requests for "reasonable accommodation" include residence accessibility modifications or the allowance of a service animal. 6. Why Did You not Report the Incident? Of the survey respondents who felt they were discriminated against, 25 percent (18 persons) reported the discrimination incident. Many of the respondents who did not report the incident indicated that they don't believe it makes a difference (37 persons or 51 percent). In addition, 36 percent did not know where to report the incident, 31 percent were afraid of retaliation, and 18 percent felt it was too much trouble.

CHAPTER 2: COMMUNITY OUTREACH 18 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 386 COMMUNITY PROFILE AN ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE an Diego County, boasts an estimated population of over three million residents, making it the second most populous county in California and fifth in the nation (In California, only Los Angeles County has a larger population). Encompassing 4,261 square miles, San Diego County's borders include 18 incorporated cities and numerous unincorporated neighborhoods and communities. The County stretches south from Orange County all the way to the U.S. - Mexico border. The Pacific Ocean forms the western boundary, and the County's eastern edge reaches to the Laguna Mountains and the Anza- Borrego Desert. Like many major metropolitan areas in the United States, the minority population in San Diego County has increased significantly in recent years, especially among Asian and Hispanic groups. As this Chapter and subsequent chapters will discuss, fair housing issues tend to particularly affect racial and ethnic minority groups, as well as persons with disabilities. The cost of living in San Diego County is high and getting higher than many other regions in the nation. Median household incomes have not kept pace with the rising cost of housing and living in the San Diego region; a trend seen nationwide and partially attributed to the recession of 2007. While housing affordability is not a fair housing issue per se, the increased demand for housing and the dwindling supply may create conditions where fair housing violations become a common part of the competition in the housing market. In an economic market where the need for affordable housing for the County's poorest residents remains overwhelming, various factors may affect the ability of individuals with similar incomes and needs in the same housing market to obtain a like range of housing choices. This section provides an overview of San Diego County's residents and housing stock, including population, economic, and housing trends that help identify housing needs specific to the region. This overview will provide the context for discussing and evaluating fair housing in the following chapters. A. Demographic Profile Examination of demographic characteristics provides some insight regarding the need and extent of equal access to housing in a community. Supply and demand factors can create market conditions that are conducive to housing discrimination. Factors such as population growth, age characteristics, and race /ethnicity all help determine a community's housing need and play a role in exploring potential impediments to fair housing choice. 1. Population Growth Population growth in San Diego County from 2000 to 2010 was slightly lower than the last decade. Overall, San Diego County experienced a 10 percent increase in population from 2000 to 2010 (Table 7). During this period, the cities of San Marcos, Chula Vista, and Carlsbad had the largest growth while the cities of Del Mar, Imperial Beach, Poway, and Solana Beach experienced a drop in population. The San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) population projections indicate that by 2020 the County's population could reach 3,435,700, an approximately 11 percent increase from the 2010 population. Several cities are projected to have larger increases between 2010 and 2020 than the San CHAPTER 3: COMMUNITY PROFILE 19 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 387 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Diego region as a whole, including Carlsbad, Chula Vista, Escondido, San Diego, San Marcos, Santee, and the unincorporated areas of the County. Moderate growth is expected at the County level.

Age Housing demand is affected by the age characteristics of residents in a community. Different age groups are often distinguished by important differences in lifestyle, family type, housing preferences and income levels. Typically, young adult households may occupy apartments, condominiums, and smaller single - family homes because of size and /or affordability. Middle -age adults may prefer larger homes as they begin to raise their families, while seniors may prefer apartments, condominiums, mobile homes, or smaller single - family homes that have lower costs and less extensive maintenance needs. Because a community's housing needs change over time, this section analyzes changes in the age distribution of San Diego County residents and how these changes affect housing need. CHAPTER 3: COMMUNITY PROFILE 20 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 388 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE As Table 8 shows, the median age has risen in all jurisdictions in San Diego County from 2000 to 2010. The median age was 33.2 years in 2000 and rose to 34.6 by 2010. In 2010, the median age in the various cities ranged from a low of 30.2 years in National City to a high of 48.6 years in Del Mar. Based on the 2010 Census, 11.4 percent of the population in San Diego County was age 65 or over (seniors), with another 10.6 percent in the 55 to 64 age group (future seniors). Close to 13 percent of San Diego County residents were school -age children between the ages of five and 14, and over 30 percent of residents were between the age of 15 and 34. This age structure suggests the County has a high proportion of families with children and has a rapidly increasing older population.

Specifically, minorities tend to have lower median ages than White residents. For example, the median age for Hispanic residents in 2010 (26.9) was 15 years younger than that of White residents (42.2). The gap is lessened with Black (31.3) and Asian (35.9) residents; however it is still lower than White residents. The smaller age gaps may be an indication of Black and Asian households having fewer children compared than Hispanic households. 3. Racial /Ethnic Composition The San Diego region's racial and ethnic composition trends mirror those seen at the national level. The nation's demographic profiles are becoming increasingly diverse in their racial and ethnic compositions. In 2010, at least three out of ten U.S. residents were non - White. Growing Hispanic and Asian populations have contributed to a major transformation, reducing the number of White majority places and increasing the number of minority - majority and no- majority places. As of 2010, the most diverse communities in the U.S. were disproportionately western, southern, and coastal metropolitan areas and their principal cities and suburbs. Studies have found that areas with a strong government and /or the military employment base, as is the case in the San Diego region, tend to be more diverse in general. s Race and ethnicity have implications on housing choice in that certain demographic and economic variables correlate with race. For example, the average household size for San Diego County was 2.75 in 2010. The average size for Hispanic households was 3.70, while for White households the average was 2.53. In another example, per capita income for Black and Hispanic households was 78 percent and 55 percent respectively of the County per capita income, compared with White households who earned 109 percent of the County per capita income during 2009 to 2013. The State of California's and San Diego County's demographic profiles have become increasingly diverse in their race and ethnic compositions since 1970, a period that coincides with the sharp increase in immigration. As recently as 1970, the vast proportion of the population in the State was predominantly White whereas now, minorities are the majority in California. Likewise, in 2000, Whites made up the majority of the Fair Housing Case Summary — Race Discrimination — El Cajon The complainant (CP) is an African - American male.

Outcome: Referred to litigation; favorable settlement Agency: CSA San Diego County population in the San Diego region, but by 2010 minority residents made up a slight majority (51.5 percent). After White residents, the largest racial /ethnic group in the County is Hispanic. As seen in Table 9, White residents make up the single largest percentage of San Diego County residents (48.5 percent), while Hispanic residents made up 37.6 percent. Asians /Pacific Islander, Blacks, and other groups followed with 11 percent, 4.7 percent, and 3.7 percent, respectively (Table 9). The cities of National City, Chula Vista, Imperial Beach, Escondido, and Vista have significant Hispanic concentrations, while the city of Del Mar has the smallest proportion of Hispanic residents.

Race /Ethnic Concentration Ethnic and racial composition of a region is useful in analyzing housing demand and any related fair housing concerns as it tends to demonstrate a relationship with other characteristics such as household size, locational preferences and mobility. Nationally, HUD data show that race -based discrimination ranks second in discrimination of protected classes, behind discrimination related to disability. Figure 1 illustrates concentrations of minority households by Census block group in San Diego County. A concentration is defined as a block group with a proportion of minority households that is greater than the overall San Diego County minority average of 51.5 percent.' The minority population in the County is described by sub - region in Table 10. In San Diego County, the minority population is concentrated in the southern areas of the City of San Diego and continuing south (Figure 1).s This pattern can be attributed to the traditional cluster of minorities living in the urban core and near the U.S. /Mexican border. Another concentration is visible in the northwestern part of the North County East sub - region just west of the Cleveland National Forest. This area is home to several Native American reservations. An additional swath of minority concentration can be found in the University and Mira Mesa communities of the City of San Diego. Clusters of minority populations are also found in the North County cities of Oceanside, Vista, San Marcos, and Escondido. According to 2013 Census data, more than half of foreign -born residents in the County are from Latin America and a large proportion of new immigrants were from Asian countries (36.2 percent). More than a third of the foreign -born Asian population came from the Philippines, a Southeast Asian country.

"Annual Report on Fair Housing FY 2012 - 2013 ", (2013). This definition of concentration is derived from the concept of Location quotient (LQ, which is calculated by comparing the proportion of one group in a smaller geographic unit (e.g. block group) to the proportion of that group in the larger population (e.g. county). An important note on the mapping of racial /ethnic concentrations is that concentration is defined by the proportion of a racial /ethnic group in the total population of a census block group. If a census block group has low population, such as in and near the State and National Parks, the proportion of a racial /ethnic group may appear high even though the number of residents in that group may be limited. Furthermore, block group boundaries may cross jurisdictional boundaries.

Residential Segregation Residential segregation refers to the degree to which groups live separately from one another. The term segregation has historically been linked to the forceful separation of racial groups. However, as more minorities move into suburban areas of the County and outside of traditional urban enclaves, segregation is becoming increasingly self - imposed. Originally, many ethnic groups gravitated to ethnic enclaves where services catered to them, and not until they reached a certain economic status could they afford to move to the outer areas of the County. Unlike the original enclaves, now living in an ethnic community is often a rational choice many are making. The dissimilarity index is the most commonly used measure of segregation between two groups, reflecting their relative distributions across neighborhoods (as defined by census tracts). The index represents the percentage of the minority group that would have to move to new neighborhoods to achieve perfect integration of that group. An index score can range in value from 0 percent, indicating complete integration, to 100 percent, indicating complete segregation. An index number above 60 is considered high similarity and segregated. An index number of 40 to 50 is considered moderate segregation, and values of 30 or below are considered low levels of segregation. To put the dissimilarity index into context, the Detroit metro area was found to be the nation's most segregated metropolitan statistical areas (between Whites and Blacks in the top fifty metro areas with largest Black populations in 2010), with a 79.6 percent rating. Among the top fifty metro areas with largest Hispanic Fair Housing Case Summary — National Origin Discrimination — City of San Diego Complainants (Cps), monolingual Spanish speakers were both forced to sign 30 -day notices to terminate their tenancies of 15 years. The respondent, who receives HUD funding required the Cps to sign a document prepared by the respondent written in English, which both Cps cannot read or understand, and required the Cps to sign the notice which terminated their tenancy or risk eviction. The respondent then filed an eviction lawsuit against both Cps for failing to move out after the 30 -day notice expired. A HUD complaint was filed against the respondent. The case was accepted by HUD and was settled in conciliation. The terms of the HUD conciliation provide that the building will now translate all vital documents in Spanish, will provide fair housing training for staff, will host two fair housing trainings for tenants to be provided by the fair housing service provider originally contacted by the Cps, and will be monitored by HUD for compliance for 3 years. population, the Los Angeles -Long Beach - Glendale metro area was the most segregated (63.4 percent) and Laredo, Texas was the least segregated (50th place with 30.7 percent). The San Diego - Carlsbad -San Marcos metropolitan area ranked 14th (49.6 percent).`' Table 11 presents a comparison of the degree of racial segregation among different ethnic groups from year 2000 to 2010 in San Diego County. The highest level of segregation seems to exist between Whites and Blacks (an index of 55.5 in 2000 and 51.2 in 2010). The lowest level of racial segregation exists between Blacks and Hispanics (an index of 41.0 in 2000 and 38.4 in 2010). Asians and Pacific Islanders showed a lower level of segregation with Hispanics than with Whites. Segregation patterns in San Diego County have remained relatively stable. While numerically, there were drops in the indices, demographers interpret changes below 5 points in one decade as a small change or no real change at all. 9 Logan, John R. and Stults, Brian.

CHAPTER 3: COMMUNITY PROFILE 26 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 394 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Nonetheless, change can be cumulative, and small changes in a single decade — if they are repeated over several decades — can constitute a significant trend.1' When looking at Hispanic /White segregation among the largest 200 cities in the country in 2010, San Diego ranked 12`'' (an index of 57.8) most segregated, Escondido ranked 88th (at 39.6), Oceanside ranked 127`'' (at 32.9), and Chula Vista ranked 175`'' (at 21.7)11. Consistent with these findings, Table 12 presents a comparison of the degrees of racial segregation between the County's Minority and White population by MSA. Table 12 shows that levels of segregation between the County's Minority and White population was highest in the Central Region which encompasses the central and southern portion of the City of San Diego.

Individual choices can certainly be a cause of segregation. Many residents choose to live among people of their own race /ethnic group. This does not mean that they prefer ethnically homogeneous neighborhoods, but that they feel more comfortable where members of their group commonly live. This attitude is widespread and typically more frequently found among recent immigrants, who often depend on nearby relatives, friends, and ethnic institutions to help them in their adjustment. 12 Residential segregation can also arise from preferences to avoid specific minority neighborhoods. For example, White residents leaving neighborhoods that have become diverse can affect residential segregation patterns. 13 However, individual choices may be constrained by factors outside an individual's control. A large factor in residential segregation is related to housing market dynamics. Given the relationship between race and income, policies to counteract residential segregation can target neighborhoods or individuals based on income rather than race. For example, wider availability of lending can help individual, lower income homebuyers or renters gain access to new neighborhoods. New housing construction has been found to decrease segregation for all groups but most significantly for Blacks.14 Availability of affordable housing and discrimination can also affect residential segregation. 6. Linguistic Isolation A language barrier can be an impediment to accessing housing of choice. A population that is both minority and does not speak English well may face discrimination based on national origin as well as challenges related to obtaining housing, such as communicating effectively with a property owner, landlord, rental agent, real estate agent, mortgage lender or insurance agent. According to 2009 -2013 ACS estimates, approximately 37.4 percent of County residents over the age of five spoke a language other than "English only" at home. In some cities with a large minority population, such as the cities of Imperial Beach, Lemon Grove, Chula Vista, El Cajon, Escondido, 12 Allen, James P. and Turner, Eugene.

In National City, close to three quarters of the population over the age of five years spoke a language other than English at home. A linguistically isolated household can be described as a household whose members have at least some difficulty speaking English. The ACS provides information on households with persons five years and over who speak English "less than very well." In San Diego County, 16.3 percent of residents indicated that they spoke English "less than very well" and can be considered linguistically isolated. The cities of National City, Vista, and Escondido have the highest percentage of total residents who spoke English less than "very well". Most of these residents were Spanish speakers.

This section details the various household characteristics that may affect equal access to housing. 1. Household Composition and Size According to the 2010 Census, there are 1,086,865 households in San Diego County, a 9.3 percent increase over 2000. The cities of San Marcos, Carlsbad, and Chula What is a Household? A household is defined by the Census as all persons occupying a housing unit. Families are a subset of households and include all persons living together who are related by blood, marriage or adoption. Single households include persons living alone but do not include persons in group quarters such Vista saw the largest increases in the number of households while several cities in the Urban County saw a decrease in household numbers. According to SANDAG, the number of households is projected to grow by 8.4 percent (to 1,178.091 households) by 2020.15 Different household types generally have different housing needs. Seniors or young adults typically constitute a majority of single - person households and tend to reside in apartment units, condominiums or smaller detached homes. Families, meanwhile, often prefer single - family homes. Household size can be an indicator of changes in population or use of housing. An increase in household size can indicate a greater number of large families or a trend toward overcrowded housing units. A decrease in household size, on the other hand, may reflect a greater number of senior or single - person households, or a decrease in family size. Household composition and size are often two interrelated factors. Communities that have a large proportion of families with children tend to have a larger average household size. Such communities have a greater need for larger units with adequate open space and recreational opportunities for children. The majority of San Diego County households are family households, with a roughly even mix between married- couple households with and without children (Table 15). Families with children account for 34.6 percent of all households in the County. "Other" families, primarily consisting of single - parent households, represent 17.3 percent of all households. Households of single senior persons make up eight percent of all households. Between 2000 and 2010, the distribution of household types remained relatively stable. 15 SANDAG Regional Growth Forecast, (2010).

Based upon common complaints received, families with children often face housing discrimination by landlords who fear that children will cause property damage, or the landlords have cultural biases against children of opposite sex sharing a bedroom. While the language in federal law about familial status discrimination is clear, the guidelines landlords can use to establish occupancy can be very vague. Although landlords can create occupancy guidelines based on the physical limitations of the housing unit, landlords often impose strict occupancy limitations precluding large families with children. Nationally, HUD data show that familial status discrimination ranks third in discrimination of protected classes, behind discrimination due to disability and race. 16 16 U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.

The proportion of families with dependent children was highest in the City of Chula Vista (47.2 percent) and National City (47.0 percent). The proportion of families with children in the unincorporated areas (36.4 percent) is similar to the countywide proportion (34.6 percent). Close to 20 percent of households in the County included senior members and 7.5 percent of households were female- headed households with children. Single - parent households with children and households headed by seniors have unique fair housing issues as discussed later in this chapter.

Household Size The average size and composition of households are highly sensitive to the age structure of the population but they also reflect social and economic changes. For example, economic downturns may prolong the time adult children live at home or result in multiple families and non - family members living together to lower housing costs. The average household size countywide in 2010 was 2.75 persons per household, a very slight increase from 2000 (2.73). Average household size ranged from a low of 2.02 persons in Del Mar to a high of 3.41 in National City. Five cities had an average household size over three persons in 2010.

Special Needs Groups Certain households and residents, because of their special characteristics and needs, have greater difficulty finding decent and affordable housing. These circumstances may be related to age, family characteristics, or disability. Table 18 shows a summary of this section and the special needs groups present in San Diego County. The following discussion highlights particular characteristics that may affect access to housing in a community.

Seniors Seniors (persons age 65 and above) are gradually becoming a more substantial segment of a community's population. Americans are living longer than ever before in our history and are expected to continue to do so. Senior households are vulnerable to housing problems and housing discrimination due to limited income, prevalence of physical or mental disabilities, limited mobility, and high health care costs. Seniors, particularly those with disabilities, may face increased difficulty in finding housing accommodations and may become victims of housing discrimination or fraud. Seniors sometimes face discrimination in the rental housing market, often based on the perception of increased risks and liabilities associated with the frail conditions or disabilities of senior tenants. A senior on a fixed income can face great difficulty finding safe and affordable housing. Subsidized housing and federal housing assistance programs are increasingly challenging to secure and often involve a long waiting list. According to the 2010 Census, 11.4 percent of all residents in San Diego County were ages 65 and over. The proportion of residents over the age of 65 years ranged from a low of nine percent in Imperial Beach to a high of 20.8 percent in Del Mar. ACS data (2009 -2013) estimates that 24 percent of households in San Diego County had at least one individual who was 65 years of age or older According to HUD's 2007 -2011 CHAS (Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy) data, a higher proportion (54.1 percent) of seniors had low and moderate incomes compared to all County residents (43.7 percent). In 2010, 35.9 percent of all disabilities were reported by residents 65 years or older.

AIS is the only public or private organization in the county that combines many services for older adults and disabled persons under one umbrella and mostly at no charge to county residents who use the services. AIS has experienced significant growth and change since it was established as an Area Agency on Aging in 1970. The organization is now part of the County of San Diego Health and Human Services Agency, providing or contracting for services and programs with a budget of more than $200 million. AIS provides a wide range of services, including information and access, advocacy, coordination, assessment, and authorization of direct services. Direct services are provided through contracts with vendors and agencies, and include in -home support, respite care, meals (senior dining centers and home - delivered), health promotions, legal assistance, adult day care, transportation, educational opportunities, employment, money management, and counseling programs. The City and the County of San Diego both administer a wide array of housing programs to assist in the provision of affordable housing for senior households, including funding for acquisition and construction, rehabilitation, rental assistance, and home repair. In addition to affordable housing located near transportation, the housing needs of seniors include supportive housing, such as intermediate care facilities, group homes, and other housing with a planned service component. Approximately 1,049 State - licensed residential care facilities for the elderly, 709 adult residential facilities (for individuals ages 18 through 59) and 97 adult day care facilities (for individuals 18 and over) serve the senior population throughout the County. These licensed care facilities have a combined capacity of 31,847 beds. Figure 13 shows the location of the various licensed care facilities in San Diego County. Most of the community care facilities within the County are located within the larger incorporated cities. However, there is a noticeable absence of facilities in the unincorporated areas, specifically those surrounding the incorporated cities. While most of the County's population is located within the incorporated cities, residents living in these areas would have to travel a greater distance to access the region's inventory of care facilities. Concentrations of care facilities can be seen in the North County areas in and around the cities of Vista and Escondido and in the South County in and around the cities of Chula Vista and El Cajon. In the City of San Diego clusters of care facilities can be seen in the southern portion of the City and in the Mira Mesa area. 2. Large Households Large households are defined as those with five or more members. These households are usually families with two or more children or families with extended family members such as in -laws or grandparents. It can also include multiple families living in one housing unit in order to save on housing costs. Large households are a special needs group because the availability of adequately sized, affordable housing units is often limited. Large households may face discrimination in the housing market, particularly for rental housing. Property owners and managers may be concerned with the potential increase in wear and tear and liability issues related to large households, especially those with children. Although landlords can create occupancy guidelines based on the physical limitations of the housing unit, landlords often impose strict occupancy limitations precluding large families with children. As indicated in Table 20, in 2010, close to 14 percent of all households in the County had five or more members; specifically 13 percent of owner - households and 14.5 percent of renter - households in the County were large households. The proportion of large households was highest in the cities of National City (25.4 percent), Escondido (20.7 percent), and Chula Vista (20.5 percent) indicating these cities may be the most vulnerable to housing discrimination based on family size. These three cities also had high CHAPTER 3: COMMUNITY PROFILE 36 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 404 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE proportions of non -White population and family households in 2010. Many ethnic minority groups have a younger age profile and tend to have larger families than the White population. The 2007 -2011 CHAS data shows that close to half (48.9 percent) of large households were estimated to earn low and moderate incomes compared with 44 percent of all county households. Large households in the County can benefit from general programs and services for lower -and moderate - income persons, including the Housing Choice Voucher, Down Payment, and Housing Rehabilitation programs, and various community and social services provided by non - profit organizations in the region.

Families with Children and Single- Parent Families Families with children may face housing discrimination by landlords who fear that children will cause property damage. Some landlords may have cultural biases against children of the opposite sex sharing a bedroom. Differential treatments such as limiting the number of children in a complex or confining children to a specific location are also fair housing concerns. For example, some landlords may charge large households a higher rent or security deposit, limit the number of children in a complex, confine them to a specific location, limit the time children can play outdoors, or choose not to rent to families with children altogether, which would violate fair housing laws. Housing discrimination against families with children can also be masked as overcrowding issues. Even when housing providers rent openly to families with children, there can still be an issue of illegal discriminatory policies for families once they become tenants. Neutral rules are expected to apply to all tenants equally, but once a housing provider isolates a particular group upon which to singularly implement those rules, a discriminatory practice is set in motion. The proportion of families with dependent children was highest in the cities of Chula Vista and National City (Table 16). These communities may be more vulnerable to familial discrimination in the housing market because of their higher than average proportion of families with children. Single- parent households, particularly female- headed households with children, may require special consideration and assistance because of their greater need for affordable housing and accessible day care, health care, and other supportive services, and therefore HUD Consolidated Planning regulations identify this group as a special needs group. Housing in proximity to public transportation and community and recreation facilities is also important. Because of their relatively lower income, female- headed households have comparatively limited opportunities for finding affordable and decent housing. Female- headed households may also be discriminated against in the rental housing market because some landlords are concerned about the ability of these households to make regular rent payments. Consequently, landlords may require more stringent credit checks for female heads of households. The 2010 Census identified 7.5 percent of households in the County as female- headed households with children (Table 16). The proportion of female- headed households with children was highest in National City (14.5 percent) and Imperial Beach (12.4 percent). Female single- parent family households are disproportionately affected by poverty. Fair Housing Case Summary — Sexual Harassment — City of San Diego CP, a renter, was sexually harassed by the landlord days after her husband of seventeen (17) years died. The CP attempted to pay rent in person after the death of her husband. The Respondent demanded sex for rent, graphically spoke about his sexual affairs, and then forcibly kissed the CP, before she fled the building. The CP contacted the police department. The respondent proceeded to attempt to evict the CP. LASSD represented the client and filed a federal lawsuit against the respondent. After litigating the case, the respondent settled the case for a total of $147,000 in damages (includes attorney According to the 2008 -2012 ACS, about 32 percent of female single- parent family households in San Diego County lived below the poverty level (compared to ten percent of all family households in the County). Limited household income constrains the ability of these households to afford adequate housing and childcare, health care, and other necessities. Finding adequate and affordable childcare is also a pressing issue for many families with children and single - parent households in particular. CHAPTER 3: COMMUNITY PROFILE 38 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 406 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Cities and County in San Diego region have a wide array of housing programs offering families affordable housing opportunities, including rental assistance and new construction of housing. Families with children in San Diego County can also benefit from general programs and services for lower- and moderate - income persons, including the Housing Choice Voucher, Public Housing, Down Payment, and Housing Rehabilitation programs, and various community and social services provided by non - profit organizations in the region. 4. Persons with Disabilities Affordability, design, location, and discrimination limit the supply of housing for persons with disabilities. Fair housing choice for persons with disabilities may be compromised based on the nature of their disability. Adaptable housing is the most critical housing need for persons with mobility limitations. Many single- family homes may not be adaptable to widened doorways and hallways, access ramps, or other features necessary for accessibility. Furthermore, multi- family units built prior to 1990 are often not wheel -chair accessible and the cost of retrofitting a home is often prohibitive. Many disabled individuals live in households where a member of the household is a homeowner. These disabled individuals are less likely to have accessible units, since the Fair Housing Act (FHA) does not apply to all owner - occupied dwelling units. Amendments to the Fair Housing Act, as well as state law, require ground -floor units of new multi - family construction with more than four units to be accessible to persons with disabilities. However, units built prior to 1989 are not required to be accessible to persons with disabilities. Older units, particularly in older multi - family structures, are very expensive to retrofit for disabled occupants because space is rarely available for elevator shafts, ramps, widened doorways, etc. The site, parking areas, and walkways may also need modifications to all d d lk d Th 1 f Fair Housing Case Summary — Disability Discrimination — City of San Diego The complainant (Cl?), a quadriplegic young man, was transitioning from a nursing home where he resided for three years into independent living. With the assistance of a social worker, CP applied for an affordable housing apartment complex in downtown San Diego, near the college CP was attending. After applying and touring the building, which did not have any accessible units designed for persons with disabilities as required by the law, CP requested a modification to the bathroom tub, and a keyless remote entry for the front door. The CP was approved to move in, but was prevented from moving until the respondent approved his modification. After ignoring the CP, the respondent contacted the CP's social worker to express that she thought the client was "too disabled" and was concerned he should not live at the apartment building because he could not escape in case of fire. The respondent unilaterally rescinded their previous approval for the CP to move in, and denied the modification. The CP had prepared to move into the new unit for months, and had to quickly find a place to live since he was being discharged from the nursing home. The CP found a non- accessible unit, away from the community college he would attend. lnst ramps an wi en wa ways an gates. e "cation o housing and availability of transportation is also important because disabled people may require access to a variety of social and specialized services. Persons with physical disabilities may face discrimination in the housing market because of the use of wheelchairs, need for home modifications to improve accessibility, or other forms of assistance. Landlords must allow a tenant with physical disabilities to make "reasonable modifications" to the unit in order to address accessibility issues. However, in privately owned properties, the tenant is responsible for the costs of modifications. Landlords are also required to make "reasonable accommodations" to rules and policies to accommodate a tenant's disability. A typical example is to waive the "no -pet policy" for a person with visual impairments needing a guide dog. Landlords/ owners sometimes fear that a unit may sustain wheelchair damage or may refuse to exempt disabled tenants with service /guide CHAPTER 3: COMMUNITY PROFILE 39 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 407 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE animals from a no -pet policy. A major barrier to housing for people with mental disabilities is opposition based on the stigma of mental disability. Landlords often refuse to rent to tenants with a history of mental illness. Neighbors may object when a house becomes a group home for persons with mental disabilities. While housing discrimination is not covered by the ADA, the Fair Housing Act prohibits housing discrimination against persons with disabilities. In their 2013 Fair Housing Trends Report, the National Fair Housing Alliance indicated that disability complaints were the most prevalent type of housing discrimination complaint. The report stated that apartment owners made direct comments refusing to make reasonable accommodations or modifications for people with disabilities, making discrimination based on disability easier to detect. Discrimination against persons with disabilities also continues to be the largest category of complaints HUD receives each year." Federal laws define a person with a disability as "any person who has a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities; has a record of such impairment; or is regarded as having such an impairment." In general, a physical or mental impairment includes hearing, mobility and visual impairments, chronic alcoholism, chronic mental illness, AIDS, AIDS Related Complex, and mental retardation that substantially limits one or more major life activities. Major life activities include walking, talking, hearing, seeing, breathing, learning, performing manual tasks, and caring for oneself." The U.S. Census Bureau classifies disabilities into the following categories: • Hearing difficulty: Deaf or having serious difficulty hearing • Vision difficulty: Blind or having serious difficulty seeing, even when wearing glasses • Cognitive difficulty: Because of a physical, mental, or emotional problem, having difficulty remembering, concentrating, or making decisions • Ambulatory difficulty: Having serious difficulty walking or climbing stairs • Self -care difficulty: Having difficulty bathing or dressing • Independent living difficulty: Because of a physical, mental, or emotional problem, having difficulty doing errands alone such as visiting a doctor's office or shopping According to 2009 -2013 ACS data, close to 285,000 persons living in San Diego County had a range of disabilities, comprising 9.4 percent of the total population. A large proportion of the disabled were seniors. Of those disabled persons, less than one percent were under the age of five, 3.5 percent were between the age of five and 17, seven percent were between the age of 18 and 64, and 35.9 percent were 65 years old or older (Table 21). The cities of Lemon Grove, El Cajon, and La Mesa had the highest proportion of disabled residents (between 12 and 12.6 percent). In Imperial Beach, more than half the population aged 65 or older had a disability and El Cajon had the highest proportion of disabled residents between the age of 18 and 64.

Specifically, concentrations of disabled residents can be seen in the North County cities of Oceanside, Vista, San Marcos, and Escondido, as well as the southern areas of the City of San Diego and southern cities near the U.S /Mexico border. Due to the presence of residential care facilities, the Mira Mesa community of the City of San Diego and the cities of El Cajon, La Mesa, and Lemon Grove also have concentrations of disabled residents. The coastal and inland areas show less dense concentrations of disabled residents, which could be due to the high price of housing (in the coastal areas) or the scarcity of facilities and services for disabled persons (inland areas). Of those disabilities tallied between 2009 and 2013 (as shown in Table 22), cognitive, ambulatory, and independent living disabilities were the most prevalent. The senior population had a significantly larger percentage of all disability types. San Diego County's senior population will grow substantially in the next 20 years. Since seniors have a much higher probability of being disabled, the housing and service needs for persons with disabilities should grow considerably, commensurate with the projected growth of this population.

Persons with Developmental Disabilities: As defined by federal law, "developmental disability" means a severe, chronic disability of an individual that: • Is attributable to a mental or physical impairment or combination of mental and physical impairments; • Is manifested before the individual attains age 2219; ■ Is likely to continue indefinitely, ■ Results in substantial functional limitations in three or more of the following areas of major life activity: a) self -care; b) receptive and expressive language; c) learning, d) mobility; e) self direction; 0 capacity for independent living, or g) economic self- sufficiency; and ■ Reflects the individual's need for a combination and sequence of special, interdisciplinary, or generic services, individualized supports, or other forms of assistance that are of lifelong or extended duration and are individually planned and coordinated. According to the U.S. Administration on Developmental Disabilities (ADD), the percentage of the population that can be defined as developmentally disabled is approximately 1.5 percent. The Census does not specifically record developmental disabilities. However, using the ADD percentage to create an estimate, based on the 2010 Census population, this equates to just over 46,000 persons in the County of San Diego. 19 The State of California defines developmental disabilities slightly differently than federal law. The main difference is at the manifestation age, where California established that threshold at age 18.

Services include diagnostic and eligibility assessments, program planning, case management, and other services and supports. The San Diego Regional Center has four offices in the County and is one of 21 non - profit regional centers in California providing lifelong services and support for people with developmental disabilities residing in San Diego and Imperial Counties. As of December 2014, the Regional Center had just over 19,000 clients living in San Diego County. The ARC of San Diego, and Community Interface Services offer comprehensive services for persons or individuals with developmental disabilities and their families, including diagnosis, counseling, coordination of services, advocacy and community education /training. 5. Persons with HIV /AIDS20 Persons with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) face an array of barriers to obtaining and maintaining affordable, stable housing. For persons living with HIV /AIDS, access to safe, affordable housing is as important to their general health and well-being as access to quality health care. Increasingly, the connection between housing and health has become clearer; without stable housing, it is difficult for a person living with HIV /AIDS to maintain the complex treatment regimen required to manage this illness. For many, the persistent shortage of stable housing is the primary barrier to consistent medical care and treatment. Stable housing is shown to be cost effective for the community in that it helps decrease risk factors that can lead to HIV and AIDS transmission. Persons with HIV /AIDS require a broad range of services, including counseling, medical care, in home care, transportation, and food, in addition to stable housing. Despite federal and state anti - discrimination laws, people have faced illegal eviction from their homes when their illness is exposed. The Fair Housing Amendments Act of 1988, which is primarily enforced by HUD, prohibits housing discrimination against persons with disabilities, including persons with HIV /AIDS. Housing providers are barred from discriminating against people with disabilities, but they also have a responsibility to provide reasonable accommodation in housing policies and procedures. A tenant with HIV /AIDS may not need physically accessible housing when initially renting a unit, but may then develop a symptom that later requires modifications in the unit. Many landlords and tenants are not aware that a landlord is required by law to allow physical modifications to a unit to accommodate a disability. In addition, persons with HIV /AIDS may also be targets of hate crimes, which are discussed later in this document. California has the second largest number of HIV and AIDS cases in the United States; San Diego County has the third largest number of HIV and AIDS cases in California. Since the 1981 beginning of the epidemic, nearly 15,000 AIDS cases have been reported in San Diego County, as of December 31, 2011. New drugs, better treatment, and preventative education have reduced the number of fatalities. Persons with HIV /AIDS are living longer. There are currently 7,221 individuals diagnosed with AIDS in San Diego County. As of December 2011, 14,739 AIDS cases were reported in San Diego County (Table 23). Among the different jurisdictions, the City of San Diego is home to the majority of residents diagnosed with AIDS (72.7 percent); trailing far behind were the communities in unincorporated areas, where only 0.2 percent or less of the County residents were diagnosed with AIDS. Individuals diagnosed with AIDS in San 20 All statistics in Persons with HIV /AIDS section are taken from the "HIV /AIDS Epidemiology Report 2012" (County of San Diego Health and Human Services Agency, 2012) unless otherwise noted.

Over the course of the epidemic, there has been a slow increase in the proportion of cases affecting blacks, Hispanics, women, people aged 40 or older, and those having used injected drugs. The average age at HIV diagnosis from 1981 to 2011 is 34 years, although it has increased over time from 33 to 35. As the number of individuals newly diagnosed with AIDS has been decreasing, the number of individuals living with an AIDS diagnosis continues to increase. The decrease in the annual number of AIDS diagnoses has not been uniform across racial /ethnic groups. The largest decrease has been in Whites; while diagnosis of persons of color, including Blacks and Hispanics, has proportionately increased over time. The primary source of funding for HIV /AIDS housing is HUD's Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS ( HOPWA) program. The City of San Diego is the HOPWA program grantee, but all HOPWA programs are administered by the County of San Diego Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). Established in 1992, the HOPWA program is designed to provide States and localities with resources and incentives to develop long -term comprehensive strategies that meet the housing and housing- related support service needs of low- income persons living with HIV /AIDS or related diseases and their families.21 In FY 2015, the City of San Diego's Annual Action Plan included a $2.9 million budget for HOPWA programs ($2.8 million from the 2014 Program Year entitlement allocation and $100,000 from prior year funds). Programs funded through the HOPWA Program must be housing related and funding is prioritized as follows22. Activities which provide affordable housing for low- income persons living with HIV /AIDS and their families; Activities which enable low- income persons living with HIV /AIDS and their families to become housed; Services needed to enable low- income HIV /AIDS clients to remain housed, locate housing, and prevent homelessness. Several HOPWA- funded housing resources (Table 24) are in place; however, there are many more people looking for housing than there are units available, particularly affordable housing units. 21 San Diego County HIV /AIDS Housing Plan Update 2009, County of San Diego, Department of Housing and Community Development. 22 County of San Diego Department of Housing and Community Development.

County of San Diego, Department of Housing and Community Development, September 2014 6. Homeless Formerly homeless persons often have a very difficult time finding housing once they have moved from transitional housing or other assistance programs. Housing affordability for those who were formerly homeless is challenging from an economics standpoint, but this demographic group may also encounter fair housing issues when property owners /managers refuse to rent to formerly homeless persons. The perception may be that they are more economically (and sometimes mentally) unstable. Homeless persons may also experience discrimination in homeless shelters. This can occur in the form of discrimination based on protected classes, rules or policies with a disparate impact on a protected class, or lack of reasonable accommodation. Fair Housing Also Applies to Homeless Shelters In 2013, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) charged a homeless shelter in Pennsylvania and one of its employees with refusing to accept a blind man and his guide dog at a homeless shelter. HUD's investigation found that the homeless man was denied a reasonable accommodation request to allow the man to keep his dog in the shelter, in violation of the Fair Housing Act. On January 4, 2012, final regulations went into effect to implement changes to HUD's definition of homelessness contained in the Homeless Emergency Assistance and Rapid Transition to Housing (HEARTH) Act. The definition affects who is eligible for various HUD - funded homeless assistance programs. The new definition includes four broad categories of homelessness:23 ■ People who are living in a place not meant for human habitation, in emergency shelters, in transitional housing, or are exiting an institution where they temporarily resided. ■ People who are losing their primary nighttime residence, which may include a motel or hotel or a doubled -up situation, within 14 days and lack resources or support networks to remain in housing. 23 U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.

CHAPTER 3: COMMUNITY PROFILE 48 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 416 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Families with children or unaccompanied youth who are unstably housed and likely to continue in that state. People who are fleeing or attempting to flee domestic violence, have no other residence, and lack the resources or support networks to obtain other permanent housing. This definition demonstrates the diversity of people experiencing homelessness. The numerous places where people experiencing homelessness can be located complicate efforts to accurately estimate their total population. For example, an individual living with friends on a temporary basis could be experiencing homelessness, but would be unlikely to be identified in a homeless count. Since 2006, the San Diego Regional Task Force on the Homeless (RTFH) has conducted a point -in -time survey (PIT) to measure the County's homeless population, as well as to identify the needs of persons experiencing homelessness. The 2014 San Diego Regional Homeless Point -In -Time Count took place on the night of January 23, 2014. The 2014 PIT count identified 8,50624 homeless persons living in San Diego County (Table 25). Of the homeless persons counted, just less than half (3,985) were unsheltered — living in a place not meant for human habitation, while over 13 percent were in an emergency shelter and 37 percent in a transitional housing program. When examining the different regions within San Diego County, the City of San Diego had the largest proportion of the homeless persons (61 percent), followed by North County Inland with 12 percent of the region's homeless persons. Since 2011, the total number of sheltered and unsheltered homeless persons enumerated during the annual PIT decreased by approximately six percent. While the number of homeless persons sheltered on the selected night increased 11 percent over the four -year period (4,305 to 4,521), the unsheltered homeless persons observed and counted decreased by 20 percent (4,981 in 2011 to 3,985 in 2014). When looking at the one -year change from 2013 to 2014, there was a decrease in the sheltered and unsheltered homeless persons by four percent, with the majority of the decrease occurring in the unsheltered population (13 percent decrease). Many homeless service providers attributed the decrease to the new "Housing First" model and the Continuum of Care system (described later). This approach recognizes many people and unprepared to address their other issues (e.g., employment, health, and emotional) until they have a more stable housing arrangement. The point -in -time count is just a snapshot of how many homeless people are on streets and in emergency and transitional shelters on any given day in the San Diego region. RTFH estimated that the number of people who used an emergency shelter or transitional housing program at any time from October 1, 2012 through September 30, 2013 was 12,817 persons.zs 24 The 2014 San Diego Regional Homeless Profile indicates 8,506 persons enumerated in the Point -in -Time Count.

The RCCC is a large cooperative community group consisting of representatives of the 18 cities within the county, nonprofit service providers and other interested parties. The RCCC meets on a quarterly basis to identify gaps in homeless services, establish funding priorities, and pursue an overall systemic approach to addressing homelessness. The San Diego Housing Commission (SDHC) has established a three -year homelessness action plan to create additional affordable housing with supportive services for as many as 1,500 homeless San Diegans. In 2014, San Diego officials announced a three -year, $200 million, five -point action plan to combat homelessness.26 The Housing First model focuses on moving the homeless individual or household immediately from the streets or homeless shelters into housing. Housing First approaches are based on the concept that a homeless individual or household's first and primary need is to obtain stable housing, and that other issues that may affect the household can and should be addressed once housing is obtained. The Housing First — San Diego program includes: ■ The renovation of the Churchill Hotel to create 72 units providing permanent supportive housing for homeless veterans and former foster children ($17 million). ■ The creation of permanent supportive housing using $30 million in funding allocated over the next three years. ■ 1,500 federal rental vouchers for at -risk low- income families and individuals ($150 million). ■ "Moving to Work," federally funded rental assistance program which will dedicate 20 percent of its San Diego units for permanent supportive housing. ■ A commitment of 25 of SDHC's own affordable units ($348,000 annually) to serve as temporary housing for homeless families and individuals. SDHC is one of the first public housing agencies in the nation to pledge affordable housing units that it owns and operates for this purpose. A variety of public and nonprofit agencies in San Diego County also offer services to assist individuals and families in obtaining and maintaining adequate housing. These agencies administer programs that include rental assistance, housing rehabilitation, shared housing, public housing, home purchasing assistance, and emergency shelters. Figure 3 shows that the majority of resources for homeless persons are located near the downtown area in the City of San Diego, as more than half (61 percent) of the region's homeless population live in the City of San Diego. In the North County areas, there are concentrations of homeless resources in the larger cities such as Oceanside, Vista, and Escondido.

Farm Workers As traditionally defined, farm workers are persons whose primary incomes are earned through permanent or seasonal agricultural labor. Permanent farm workers tend to work in fields or processing plants. During harvest periods when workloads increase, the need to supplement the permanent labor force is satisfied with seasonal workers. Often these seasonal workers are migrant workers, defined by the inability to return to their primary residence at the end of the workday. Determining the actual number of farm workers in a region is difficult due to the variability of the definitions used by government agencies and other peculiarities endemic to the farming industry. Agricultural work can include weeding, thinning, planting, pruning, irrigation, tractor work, pesticide applications, harvesting, transportation to the cooler or market, and a variety of jobs at packing and processing facilities. It is therefore difficult to estimate the number of farm workers residing in the County. According to 2009- 2013 ACS data, just over 8,500 residents of San Diego County were employed in farming, fishing, or forestry occupations. In contrast, estimates provided by other governmental agencies include 9,600 (Total Farm Employment, California Employment Development Department) and 17,844 workers (Hired Farm Labor, 2012 Census of Agriculture). The number of farm workers, however, varies depending upon the different growing seasons. The numbers can change quickly as more work becomes available. This population remains highly migratory, following the work as it becomes available and even returning home for short periods during the off - season. Over half the estimated farm worker population is located in the North County cities of Oceanside, Escondido, Vista, and San Marcos. Close to a quarter of the farm worker population resided in unincorporated areas of the County. The geographic distribution of farm workers in San Diego County generally corresponds with agricultural production areas. According to the County's Geographic Information System (GIS) data, agricultural production in the County is concentrated in the unincorporated north inland areas of the county around Interstate 15, north of the cities of vista, San Marcos, and Escondido, and west of the Cleveland National Forest areas. County land use data also indicated that most agricultural activity consists of orchards and vineyards or field crops. Only a small portion of agricultural land is used for intensive agricultural uses.

According to the California Employment Development Department (EDD), the average salary for farm workers and laborers working in the Farming, Fishing, and Forestry Occupations in the San Diego - Carlsbad -San Marcos MSA in 2014 was approximately $27,191. Most rental units that are affordable and available to migrant farm workers are small, while most farm worker households are above average in size and as a result live in overcrowded housing. Thus, housing affordability and overcrowding are critical issues among this special needs group. Due to the low wages, high housing costs, and seasonal nature of this occupational category, many farm workers are homeless at their place of employment while their families may be residing elsewhere. In 2010, the Regional Homeless Profile noted that more than half of unsheltered individuals counted in North County cities were farm workers or day laborers and many occupied hillsides and canyons near the areas they worked.27 27 San Diego Regional Taskforce on the Homeless, "2014 San Diego Regional Homeless Profile ". (September 24, 2014). CHAPTER 3: COMMUNITY PROFILE 54 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 422 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Farm workers can benefit from programs and services that provide assistance to lower and moderate - income households in general, such as the Housing Choice Voucher program, which offers rental assistance to residents. According to the County of San Diego Housing Resources Directory 2013 -2015, two developments in the City of San Marcos (Chinaberry Apartments and Firebird Manor) and one in the community of Fallbrook (Fallbrook View Apartments) provide 109 units of affordable housing for farm workers and their families. In addition, eight of the 108 units at Eucalyptus View Apartments in the City of Escondido, and another ten of the 56 affordable units at Old Grove Apartments in the City of Oceanside, are reserved for farm workers and their families. 8. Military Personnel and Veterans San Diego is one of the largest military regions in the United States. The County is the third largest in the U.S. in terms of veteran residents, and the number one destination for veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan.28 San Diego County has a strong military personnel presence due to the various large military bases, including Naval Air Station North Island, Naval Station San Diego, Naval Base Point Loma, Marine Corps Air Station Miramar, and Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton. The military population increases the demand for low -cost rental housing. Military personnel generally earn lower incomes and their length of residency is often uncertain. Although the need is partially met by the supply of military housing, the demand outweighs the supply. Eligibility for military housing is based on pay grade and family size. In addition to housing concerns, veterans may experience specific difficulties when reintegrating into the civilian labor force. These include: trouble translating military experience to civilian work, lack of resume, job search, and interview experience; time needed to "decompress;" and health issues (physical and mental) from military service.29 Although less than one percent of the U.S. population lives in San Diego County, the region is home to more than eight percent of the active duty U.S. military population. Approximately 110,700 active duty personnel are stationed in San Diego County. Once spouses and dependent children are included, the military- related population in San Diego County is about 229,000.0 The 2009 -2013 ACS data estimates that veterans made up 10 percent (234,211 persons) of the adult population in the County. This proportion was significantly higher in the City of Coronado (21 percent). Due to the region's high cost of living, many families at the lower range of pay and housing allowance are barely meeting the self - sufficiency standard for San Diego. The Self- Sufficiency Standard measures how much income is needed for a family of a certain composition living in a particular county to adequately meet its basic needs. The incomes for households living below the Self- Sufficiency Standard in the San Diego region exceed federal poverty thresholds but are insufficient to cover the cost of necessities in the region. The 2014 Regional Homeless Profile estimates that 20 percent (1,307 persons) of all homeless adult persons in San Diego (6,430 persons), at a single point in time, were veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces.l 28 County of San Diego and San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce, "Military Employment in San Diego ".

CHAPTER 3: COMMUNITY PROFILE 55 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 423 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Housing and supportive service needs for military personnel are addressed by the Department of Defense, while the needs of veterans are addressed at the community level. The Veteran Services division of the County's Health and Human Services Agency provides benefit information and assistance, plus other support to San Diego County veterans and their families. Services offered through Veterans Services includes comprehensive benefits counseling, claims preparation and submission, claims follow -up to ensure final decisions, initiation and development of appeals, and networking and advocacy with federal, state and local agencies. The Veteran's Village of San Diego (VVSD) provides a continuum of care with a full range of comprehensive and innovative services for military veterans. VVSD has five locations throughout San Diego County where they provide services to more than 2,000 military veterans. D. Hate Crimes Hate crimes — violent acts against people, property, or organizations motivated by a bias related to victim's race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, national origin, or physical or mental disability — are a tragic part of American history. However, it was not until the early in 2000s that the federal government began collecting data on the number and type of hate crimes committed and by whom. Hate crimes become a fair housing concern when residents are intimidated or harassed at their residence or neighborhood. Fair housing violations due to hate crimes also occur when people will not consider moving into certain neighborhoods, or have been run off from their homes for fear of harassment or physical harm. The federal Fair Housing Act makes it illegal to threaten, harass, intimidate or act violently toward a person who has exercised their right to free housing choice. Persons who break the law have committed a serious crime and can face time in prison, large fines or both, especially for violent acts, serious threats of harm, or injuries to victims. In addition, this same behavior may violate similar state and local laws, leading to more punishment for those who are responsible. Some examples of illegal behavior include threats made in person, writing or by telephone; vandalism of the home or property; rock throwing; suspicious fires, cross - burning or bombing; or unsuccessful attempts at any of these. The Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 2009 greatly expanded the federal government's ability to prosecute hate crimes without having to show that the defendant was engaged in a federally protected activity. The Shepard -Byrd Act also empowers the department to prosecute crimes committed because of a person's sexual orientation, gender identity, gender or disability as hate crimes. In 2013, the FBI's Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program released the first publication to present data collected under the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr. Hate Crime Prevention Act of 2009. As a result, the bias categories of gender (male and female) and gender identity (transgender and gender nonconforming) were added to the other bias categories of race, religion, disability, sexual orientation, and ethnicity. Table 27 shows that 99 hate crimes were reported in San Diego County in 2013. The jurisdictions with the largest number of hate crimes include San Diego (43 cases), unincorporated County (13 cases), Escondido (8 cases), and Oceanside (8 cases). More than half of reported hate crimes appear to be motivated by the victim's race or ethnicity. Close to a quarter of reported hate crimes appear to be motivated by the victim's sexual orientation. Although hate crimes have declined in San Diego region since 2001 (Figure 4), there has been a steady increase in the proportion of total hate crimes reported that are based on religion. However, reporting hate crimes is voluntary on the part of CHAPTER 3: COMMUNITY PROFILE 56 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 424 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE the local jurisdictions. Some states started submitting data only recently, and not all jurisdictions are represented in the reports. Many jurisdictions across the country, including those with well- documented histories of racial prejudice, reported zero hate crimes. Another obstacle to gaining an accurate count of hate crimes is the reluctance of many victims to report such attacks.

Income Profile Household income is the most important factor determining a household's ability to balance housing costs with other basic life necessities. Regular income is the means by which most individuals and families finance current consumption and make provision for the future through saving and investment. The level of cash income can be used as an indicator of the standard of living for most of the population. While economic factors that affect a household's housing choice are not a fair housing issue per se, the relationships among household income, household type, race /ethnicity, and other factors often create misconceptions and biases that raise fair housing concerns. 1. Household Income The 2009- 2013 ACS data shows that the median household income for San Diego County was $62,962. Just over 23 percent of the County households earned less than $30,000 in 2013. In contrast, close to 30 percent of the households earned more than $100,000 in 2013. In fact, the proportion of households earning less than $75,000 has fallen since 2000 and households earning more than $75,000 increased since 2000 as seen in Figure 5.

Not surprisingly, areas with high median household incomes are found along the coastal cities of Del Mar and Solana Beach and in Poway. The income gap between cities can be attribute to many factors, including the high cost of housing on the coast, the cities with lower incomes having significantly younger residents, having fewer professional and management employees, or having more students. Many of the cities with lower median incomes are also cities with a higher proportion of non- white population. As stated earlier in this chapter, per capita income for Blacks and Hispanics is 78 percent and 55 percent, respectively, of the County per capita income, compared with Whites who earned 109 percent of the County per capita income according to 2009 to 2013 ACS data. According to 2000 Census data and 2013 ACS data, in absolute terms, the median income in the County has risen since 2000 (Table 28). When inflation is not factored in, the County and each of the cities in the County posted significant median household income gains compared with 2000. For example, median income in Vista jumped from $43,258 to $47,346 between 2000 and 2013, a 9.5- percent gain. However, adjusting the 2000 income to 2013, the number becomes $58,521, turning the change into a 19- percent loss. When adjusted for inflation, most cities saw a decrease in median income. Percent change in income from 2000 (inflation adjusted) to 2013 ranged from a decrease of 19 percent in Vista to an increase of 6.8 percent in Chula Vista. The decrease in median income in the County reflects a national trend attributable to the economic downturn that started in 2007 and has just recently started to level off. Research shows that between 2007 and 2013, the median household income nationwide dropped by 7.3 percent.32 32 Plummer, Brad. Median Household Incomes Have Collapsed Since the Recession.

Income Distribution HUD periodically receives "custom tabulations" of Census data from the U.S. Census Bureau that are largely not available through standard Census products. The most recent estimates are derived from the 2007 -2011 ACS. These data, known as the "CHAS" data (Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy), demonstrate the extent of housing problems and housing needs, particularly for low- income households. The CHAS cross - tabulates the Census data to reveal household income in a community in relation to the Area Median Income (AMI). CHAPTER 3: COMMUNITY PROFILE 60 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 428 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE As defined by CHAS, housing problems include: • Units with physical defects (lacking complete kitchen or bathroom); • Overcrowded conditions (housing units with more than one person per room); • Housing cost burden, including utilities, exceeding 30 percent of gross income; and • Severe housing cost burden, including utilities, exceeding 50 percent of gross income. HUD has also established the following income categories based on the Area Median Income (AMI) for the Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA): • Extremely Low Income (0 -30 percent of AMI) • Low Income (31 -50 percent of AMI) • Moderate Income (51 -80 percent of AMI) • Middle /Upper Income (above 80 percent of AMI) Together, extremely low and low incomes are referred to as "lower" income. According to the CHAS data in Table 29, just over 26 percent of San Diego County households were within the extremely low- income and low- income categories, 17.6 percent were within the moderate - income category, and more than half (56.3 percent) were within the middle /upper - income category. The proportion of households with extremely low -and low- incomes was highest in National City (48.8 percent) and lowest in Del Mar (10.5 percent).

The number of households in each category usually deviates slightly from the 100% count due to the need to extrapolate sample data out to total households. Interpretations of this data should focus on the proportion of households in need of assistance rather than on precise numbers. Source: HUD Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS) Data, 2007 -2011 3. Income by Household Type and Race /Ethnicity Household income often varies by household type. As shown, in Table 30, small family households make up the largest proportion of extremely low- and low- income households at 26.4 percent. Race /ethnicity can indicate housing need to the extent that different race /ethnic groups earn different incomes. Overall, lower- income households represented just over 26 percent of all households in San Diego County in 2007 -2011. However, certain groups had higher proportions of lower - income households. Specifically, Hispanic (39.7 percent) and Black (35.5 percent) households had a considerably higher proportion of lower - income households than the rest of the County (Table 31). Proportionally fewer Asian (19.8 percent) and Non - Hispanic White households (20.9 percent) fell in the lower - income category compared to the County average.

Concentrations of Lower- and Moderate - Income Populations Figure 6 shows the Lower and Moderate Income (LMI) areas in the County by Census block group. Typically, HUD defines a LMI area as a Census tract or block group where over 51 percent of the population is LMI. However, certain communities are higher income, with few block groups qualifying as LMI using this definition. These communities are considered "exception" jurisdictions. The cities of Carlsbad, Encinitas, Santee, and the San Diego Urban County33 are identified by HUD as "exception" jurisdictions (where their LMI thresholds are not set at 51 percent). LMI areas in these communities are defined as the top 25 percent (fourth quartile) of block groups with the highest concentration of low - and moderate - income population. For 2014, the LMI thresholds for these "exception" jurisdictions are: • City of Carlsbad: 39.41 percent • City of Encinitas: 41.97 percent • City of Santee: 44.79 percent • San Diego Urban County: 50.64 Low- and moderate - income (LMI) areas are concentrated in three very general areas. In the North County area, LMI areas are seen at Camp Pendleton and in the cities of Oceanside, Vista, San Marcos, and Escondido, in a pattern generally following State Route 78. In the southern portion of the County, clusters of LMI areas are seen in the central and southern areas of the City of San Diego and continuing down to the U.S. /Mexico border. In the East County areas, there are vast LMI areas in sparsely populated parts of the unincorporated County and in the City of El Cajon. 33 Cities with a population smaller than 50,000 residents do not directly receive CDBG funds from HUD. Instead, these small cities participate in the Urban County program. The Urban County program is responsible for administering the CDBG funds received from HUD and the requirements for obtaining funds on behalf of the cities. The San Diego Urban County is comprised of. Unincorporated areas, and the cities of Coronado, Del Mar, Imperial Beach, Lemon Grove, Poway, and Solana Beach.

Low and Moderate Income Areas CHAPTER 3: COMMUNITY PROFILE 65 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE 5. Concentrations of Poverty National poverty data suggests that people living in poverty tend to be clustered in certain communities rather than being evenly distributed across geographic areas. Identifying concentrations of poverty is important because living in areas with many other poor people has been shown to places burdens on low- income families beyond what the families' own individual circumstances would dictate. Other research indicates that this concentration of poverty can result in higher crime rates, underperforming public schools, poor housing and health conditions, as well as limited access to private services and job opportunities." The consequences of poverty are particularly harmful to children. Children who grow up in densely poor neighborhoods and attend low- income schools face many barriers to academic and occupational achievement. Countywide, 14.4 percent of residents (or over 440,000 persons) were living below the poverty level (according to 2009 -2013 ACS data).31 Poverty was more prevalent for specific groups such as Hispanics (20.5 percent), Blacks (20.9 percent), and adults with less than a high school education (24.5 percent). In contrast, 10.5 percent of White residents and five percent of residents with at least a bachelor's degree were living below the poverty level during the same time period. Figure 7 shows the geographic concentration of poverty in San Diego County (areas where the proportion of persons living in poverty is greater than the County). Similar to low- and moderate - income areas, areas of poverty concentration are clustered in three general areas of the County. In North County, concentrations can be seen in the cities of Oceanside, Vista, San Marcos, and Escondido. In the southern portion of the County, concentrations can be seen from the southern areas of the City of San Diego and continuing south. Increasing concentrations of low income and poverty households are linked to racial and ethnic segregation. In East County, poverty concentrations can be seen in many parts of the unincorporated County and in El Cajon. Many of the areas with a concentration of poverty in the western part of the County (in and around the incorporated cities) are also areas with minority concentrations. In some areas such as La Jolla and San Marcos, the large student populations may contribute to poverty concentrations. 34 Bureau of the Census, "Areas with Concentrated Poverty: 2006 - 2010 ". American Community Survey Briefs, December 2011. 35 The U.S. Census Bureau determines poverty status by comparing annual income to a set of dollar values called poverty thresholds that vary by family size, number of children, and age of householder. If a family's before tax money income is less than the dollar value of their threshold, then that family and every individual in it are considered to be in poverty. For people not living in families, poverty status is determined by comparing the individual's income to his or her poverty threshold.

Poverty Concentration Areas CHAPTER 3: COMMUNITY PROFILE 67 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE In an effort to identify racially /ethnically - concentrated areas of poverty (RECAPS), HUD has identified census tracts with a majority non -White population (greater than 50 percent) and has a poverty rate that exceeds 40 percent or is three times the average tract poverty rate for the metro /micro area (in 2010), whichever threshold is lower. An analysis of racially and ethnically concentrated areas of poverty is important because families who live in such neighborhoods encounter challenges and stresses that hinder their ability to reach their full potential, and such neighborhoods impose extra costs on neighboring communities and the region. In San Diego County, there are RECAPS scattered in small sections of Oceanside, San Marcos, Escondido, El Cajon, La Mesa, Lemon Grove, National City, Chula Vista and Imperial Beach. Larger RECAP clusters can be seen in the central/ southern portion of the City of San Diego. In 2010, there were 173,692 persons living in a RECAP in the County, or 5.6 percent of the County's total population. Although Census data provides a general picture of poverty, as traditionally defined, in the County, it does not account for the many poor persons and households with incomes that are above federal poverty thresholds but below the San Diego region's high cost of living. According to research by the Center for Policy Initiatives (CPI), the official rate of poverty in San Diego County does not include over 205,000 local households living below the Self- Sufficiency Standard — who make up 25.8 percent of all working -age households in the County.36 The Self- Sufficiency Standard measures how much income is needed for a family of a certain composition living in a particular county to adequately meet its minimal basic needs. In contrast, the federal poverty level varies by family size but not geographical location. The incomes for households living below the Self- Sufficiency Standard in the San Diego region exceed federal poverty thresholds but are insufficient to cover the cost of necessities in the region. The latest data show that 300,667 of the region's 796,354 households headed by someone under age 65 are living below the Self- Sufficiency Standard. This figure represents an increase of 71,472 more families with insufficient incomes than in 2007, the year before the recession began. More than 108,000 households are unable to make ends meet despite earning two or more paychecks. Among all households in the county with at least two people working, 26.7 percent had total income below the Self- Sufficiency Standard. Among households headed by someone working a full-time, year -round job, 23.5 percent had incomes below the Self- Sufficiency Standard. Half (50.7 percent) of all households with children have incomes below the Self- Sufficiency Standard. That is nearly double the rate for households with no children (28.3 percent). F. Housing Profile A discussion of fair housing choice must be preceded by an assessment of the housing market being analyzed. This section provides an overview of the characteristics of the local and regional housing markets. The Census Bureau defines a housing unit as a house, an apartment, a mobile home, a group of rooms, or a single room that is occupied (or, if vacant, is intended for occupancy) as separate living quarters. Separate living quarters are those in which the occupants live separately from any other individuals in the building and which have direct access from outside the building or through a common hall. 36 Data in the discussion related to the Self Sufficiency Standard is from the Center for Policy Initiative, "Making Ends Meet 2014: When Wages Fail to Meet the Basic Cost of Living in San Diego Count'. (2014). CHAPTER 3: COMMUNITY PROFILE 68 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 436 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE 1. Housing Growth Housing data from 2000 and 2010 Census reveals that the San Diego County housing stock increased by almost 12 percent between 2000 and 2010 (Table 32). Among the various jurisdictions in the County, the City of San Marcos experienced the largest housing growth (close to 52 percent) followed by Chula Vista (37.6 percent) and Carlsbad (32.3 percent). Several jurisdictions within the Urban County experienced housing growth of less than 2 percent (Coronado, Del Mar, Imperial Beach, Lemon Grove, and Solana Beach). In the unincorporated areas, housing growth was slightly higher than countywide figures. SANDAG growth forecasts estimate that by 2020, the County's housing stock will increase by close to eight percent. The cities of Chula Vista, Escondido, and San Marcos are expected to see housing stock growth that in excess of eight percent (13.8 percent, 11.7 percent, and 15.8 percent, respectively). The estimated population growth for the County is expected to outpace housing production by three percent. The inability to produce enough housing units to accommodate the increasing number of households reduces vacancy rates and drives up market prices, along with other issues such as overcrowding.

Housing Type A region's housing stock generally includes three categories: single - family dwelling units, multi - family dwelling units, and other types of units such as mobile homes. Single - family units are attached or detached dwelling units usually on individual lots of land. As shown in Table 33, approximately 60 percent of the housing units in the County are single- family dwellings. The cities of Del Mar, Lemon Grove, Poway, and Encinitas, as well as the unincorporated County areas, have a much larger proportion of this housing unit type, while El Cajon and Imperial Beach have a much lower proportion.

E -5 Population and Housing Eshinates for Cities, Counties and the State -January 1, 2011- 2014. Sacramento, California, May 2014. 3. Tenure and Vacancy Housing tenure describes the arrangement by which a household occupies a housing unit; that is, whether a housing unit is owner - occupied or renter - occupied. Tenure preferences are primarily related to household income, composition, and age of the resident. Communities need to have an adequate supply of units available both for rent and for sale in order to accommodate a range of households with CHAPTER 3: COMMUNITY PROFILE 70 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 438 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE varying incomes, family sizes, composition, life styles, etc. A person may face different housing issues in the rental housing market versus the for -sale housing market. Residential stability is also influenced by tenure with ownership housing resulting in a much lower turnover rate than rental housing. As seen in Table 34, San Diego County has a higher proportion of owner - occupied housing (54.4 percent) than renter - occupied housing (45.6 percent). The ownership level fell by one percent between 2000 and 2010, but was still below the national level of 65.1 percent and slightly lower than the 56.0 percent State figure for housing ownership. Most cities in the County had more owner - occupied housing units than renter - occupied units. Exceptions include Coronado, Imperial Beach, El Cajon, La Mesa, National City, and San Diego. The tenure distribution in Coronado, Imperial Beach, and National City may be attributed to the large proportion of military families in those cities living off base due to the lack of, or demand for, housing and the close proximity of the cities to military bases. The large proportion of renters in El Cajon is partially explained by the large amount of multi - family housing in the City.

Tenure by Income and Race /Ethnicity A substantial income and housing disparity exists between owner- and renter - households. Table 35 indicates that San Diego County renters are more likely to be lower and moderate income and are more likely to experience housing problems such as cost burden and substandard housing conditions. The County's tenure distribution also has a racial and ethnic component as many ethnic minority populations in San Diego County have not achieved housing homeownership as readily as the White population. In fact as of 2010, the majority of owner - occupied households are White (Figure 3 -8). Of those who owned the housing units they occupied, 68 percent were White; 17 percent were Hispanic; 3 percent were Black; and 10 percent were Asian /Pacific Islanders. While the rate of homeownership among minorities has increased since 2000 (along with the overall minority population growth), comparing these figures to race data from the 2010 Census demonstrates that minorities in the County are underrepresented in terms of homeownership. For comparison purposes, according to Census 2010 data, Whites are 40.1 percent of the County population, Hispanics are 37.6 percent, while 13.2 percent are Asian /Pacific Islander and only 5.8 percent of the population was Black.

Low vacancy rates can indicate a heightened likelihood of housing discrimination as the number of house - seekers increases while the number of available units remains relatively constant. Managers and sellers are then able to choose occupants based on possible biases because the applicant pool is large. The vacancy rates for the County (in 2010) were within these ranges, indicating adequate housing options and mobility for residents. The San Diego County Apartment Association (SDCAA) in 2014 estimated that the vacancy rate for the County had dropped to 2.3 percent. According to SDCAA, the vacancy rate reflects the continued high demand for rental units and the need for more supply and fewer barriers to developing multi -unit housing in the region. I. Housing Condition Assessing housing conditions in the County can provide the basis for developing policies and programs to maintain and preserve the quality of the housing stock. Housing age can indicate general housing conditions within a community. Housing is subject to gradual deterioration over time. Deteriorating housing can depress neighboring property values, discourage reinvestment, and impact the quality of life in a neighborhood. State and federal housing programs typically consider the age of a community's housing stock when estimating rehabilitation needs. In general, most homes begin to require major repairs or have significant rehabilitation needs at 30 or 40 years of age. Furthermore, housing units constructed prior to 1979 are more likely to contain lead -based paint. The housing stock in the San Diego region is older, with a majority of the housing units (61 percent) built before 1979. According to the 2009 -2013 ACS data shown in Table 36, more than half of the County's housing stock is over 30 years of age in 2010 and close to 56 percent was over 50 years old. The highest percentages of pre -1980 housing units are generally found in the older, urbanized neighborhoods of the cities of La Mesa, Lemon Grove, El Cajon, San Diego, Coronado and National City and will most likely have the largest proportions of housing units potentially in need of rehabilitation. Home rehabilitation can be an obstacle for senior homeowners with fixed incomes and mobility issues. 1. Lead -Based Paint Hazard According to the federal Centers for Disease Control (CDC), approximately 250,000 children aged one to five years in the United States have elevated levels of lead in their blood. High blood lead levels are a concern because they may be harmful to a child's developing organ systems such as the kidneys, brain, liver, and blood - forming tissues, potentially affecting a child's ability to learn. Very high blood lead levels can cause devastating health consequences, including seizures, coma, and even death. Children are much more vulnerable to lead poisoning than adults because children tend to put items into their mouths and some of these items may contain lead paint. In addition, their bodies absorb up to 40 percent of the lead with which they come into contact, as opposed to only ten percent absorbed by adults. Lead can enter the body through breathing or ingestion. Several factors contribute to higher incidence of lead poisoning: • All children under the age of six years old are at higher risk. • Children living at or below the poverty line are at a higher risk. • Children in older housing are at higher risk. • Children of some racial and ethnic groups and those living in older housing are at disproportionately higher risk. CHAPTER 3: COMMUNITY PROFILE 73 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 441 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE According to the County Health and Human Services Agency, between 2009 and 2013, 104 cases of lead - poisoning (Blood Lead Level >14.4 ug /dL) among children were recorded. The majority of the reported cases were from City of San Diego, which has more renters than owners and a slightly larger than average proportion of older housing. In an effort to target health promotion and lead poisoning prevention activities, the San Diego County Health and Human Services Agency's Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Program (CLPPP) examined the risk of lead poisoning based on the percentage of families below the poverty level, number of residential structures built prior to 1980 and the total population under 5 years of age. Figure 9 shows high- and very high -risk areas for childhood lead poisoning, which cover most of the County areas with denser populations. The City of Oceanside has the 2nd highest percent of lead poisoning cases. It should be noted that testing conducted by the County Health and Human Services Agency showed higher than average levels of lead in blood tests in children in the City of Oceanside's Crown Heights neighborhood. The elevated levels have been traced to wrappers of imported candies and lead from imported cooking pots. The City of Oceanside does not consider lead -based paint to be an acute danger for its residents.

Housing Cost and Affordability This section evaluates the affordability of the housing stock in the County to low and moderate income households. If housing costs are relatively high in comparison to household income, a correspondingly high rate of housing problems occurs. It is important to emphasize that housing affordability alone is not a fair housing issue. However, fair housing concerns may arise when housing affordability interacts with other factors covered under the fair housing laws, such as household type, composition, and race /ethnicity. 1. Housing Cost Every year, the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) tracks the ability of households to afford a home in metropolitan areas across the country. NAHB develops a Housing Opportunity Index (HOI) for a given area that is defined as the share of homes sold in that area that would have been affordable to a family earning that area's median income. Fifteen of the twenty least affordable metro areas in 2014 were located in California. The San Diego - Carlsbad -San Marcos Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) is one of the least affordable areas in the nation ranking as the ninth least affordable region in the United States in 2014. In 2014 (Third Quarter), only 23 percent of the homes sold in the San Diego MSA were affordable to a family earning the area's median income. Figure 10 shows that affordability for the region peaked in 2009 during the recession and has dropped considerably since then. 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 0 Figure 10: Housing Opportunity Index Trend i L':I I1.i�diI1 0111 did E Note: Housing Opportunity Index represents the percentage of homes sold that were affordable to families earning the median income during the respective quarter.

CHAPTER 3: COMMUNITY PROFILE 76 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 444 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE According to a study conducted by the Center for Housing Policy, more than a third of working households in the San Diego MSA are paying more than half the income towards housing.' As cost of living is consistently on the rise, housing affordability drops, and lower - income families are most acutely affected. The Center on Policy Initiatives noted that a single parent in the San Diego area making only the minimum wage of $9.75 per hour (as of January 1, 2015 in the City of San Diego) would have to earn more than twice the minimum wage in order to afford a place with two bedrooms." The California Housing Partnership (CHPC) estimates that median rents in San Diego County increased by 23 percent between 2000 and 2012, while the median income declined by seven percent, significantly driving up the percentage of income that households must spend on rent.`' Rents increase in response to demand and more renter households have entered the San Diego market since 2006, many because of displacement during the foreclosure crisis. Even as San Diego County's shortfall of affordable homes has become more acute, funding for affordable housing has dropped significantly. CHPC estimates that there has been a 78- percent decrease in state and federal funding for affordable homes in San Diego since 2008." Table 37 displays median home sale prices for each jurisdiction in San Diego County. For 2014, the median sales price for homes in San Diego County was $430,000, an increase of 3.6 percent from 2013. Home prices vary by area /jurisdiction, with very high median prices in coastal areas such as the cities of Coronado, Del Mar, Solana Beach, and the La Jolla area of the City of San Diego. National City had the lowest median sales price among the incorporated jurisdictions. The San Diego County Apartment Association (SDCAA) publishes average rental rates biannually. Table 38 displays the average rent by jurisdiction. The estimated average rental costs in San Diego County in the fall of 2014 were $812 for a studio, $1,066 for a one - bedroom, $1,463 for a two- bedroom, and $1,813 for a three - bedroom. 37 Center for Housing Policy.

Housing Affordability Housing affordability can be inferred by comparing the cost of renting or owning a home in a community with the maximum affordable housing costs for households at different income levels. Taken together, this information can generally show who can afford what size and type of housing and indicate the type of households most likely to experience overcrowding and overpayment. While housing affordability alone is not a fair housing issue, fair housing concerns may arise when housing affordability interacts with factors covered under the fair housing laws, such as household type, composition, and race /ethnicity. HUD conducts annual household income surveys nationwide to determine a household's eligibility for federal housing assistance. Households in the lower end of each income category can afford less by comparison than those at the upper end. Table 39 shows the annual household income by household size and the maximum affordable housing payment based on the standard of 30 to 35 percent of household income. Also shown are general cost assumptions for utilities, taxes, and property insurance. The countywide median home price for 2014 ($430,000) places home ownership out of reach for most low- and moderate - income households. For middle /median - income families (81 -100 percent AMI) homeownership is only possible in areas such as Lemon Grove, a few unincorporated East County communities, National City, and San Ysidro. When homeownership is out of reach, rental housing is the only viable option for many low- income persons. Based on the rental data presented in Table 38, only a handful of jurisdictions had median gross rents under $1,000, which is in the range of affordability for low- income families. Table 39 shows that extremely low- income households cannot afford rents in any part of the county. Larger, low- income households can afford some of the studio and one - bedroom rental units but those would be inadequate to house a large family. Moderate - income households have more options for rentals but again, large households may encounter difficulty finding adequately sized units. The situation is most difficult for seniors with fixed incomes. When the housing market is tight, with high demand, low vacancies, and rising costs, the potential for discriminatory housing practices also increases.

CHAPTER 3: COMMUNITY PROFILE 82 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 450 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE K. Housing Problems 1. Overcrowding Some households may not be able to accommodate high cost burdens for housing, but may instead accept smaller housing or reside with other individuals or families in the same home. Potential fair housing issues emerge if non - traditional households are discouraged or denied housing due to a perception of overcrowding. Household overcrowding is reflective of various living situations: (1) a family lives in a home that is too small; (2) a family chooses to house extended family members; or (3) unrelated individuals or families are doubling up to afford housing. However, cultural differences also contribute to the overcrowded conditions since some cultures tend to have a larger household size than others due to the preference of living with extended family members. Not only is overcrowding a potential fair housing concern, it can potentially strain physical facilities and the delivery of public services, reduce the quality of the physical environment, contribute to a shortage of parking, and accelerate the deterioration of homes. How is Overcrowding Defined? According to State and federal guidelines, overcrowding is defined as a unit with more than one person per room, including dining and living rooms but excluding bathrooms, kitchens, hallways, and porches. Severe overcrowding is defined as households with more than 1.5 persons per room. Overcrowding Threshold 0 Occupancy Standard Overcrowding thresholds only describe how a unit is occupied but by no means represent the maximum occupancy standard of a unit. In general, there are no occupancy standards except for those established in the building codes. Occupancy standards are discussed later in Chapter 5: Public Policies. As a result, some landlords or apartment managers may be more hesitant to rent to larger families, thus making access to adequate housing even more difficult. According to local fair housing service providers and property managers, addressing the issue of large households is complex as there are no set of guidelines for determining the maximum capacity for a unit. Fair housing issues may arise from policies aimed to limit overcrowding that have a disparate impact on specific racial or ethnic groups with higher proportion of overcrowding. For example, 2009 -2013 ACS data shows that close to six percent of housing units in the County are overcrowded compared with 16 percent for units with a Hispanic head of household. Approximately six percent of all households in San Diego County are overcrowded and two percent are severely overcrowded. The prevalence of overcrowding varies among jurisdictions, with the lowest percentage of overall overcrowding occurring in the City of Del Mar (no overcrowded or severely overcrowded units). National City had more than three times the County's proportion of overcrowded units. Escondido and Imperial Beach also had high levels of overcrowding.

Housing Cost Burden State and Federal standards specify that a household experiences housing cost burden if it pays more than 30 percent of its gross income on housing - typically a point at which housing costs become burdensome and may affect the ability to comfortably make monthly rent or mortgage payments and /or maintain a decent standard of living. Housing cost burden is typically linked to income levels. The lower the income, the larger percentage of a household's income is allotted to housing costs. Cost burden by low income households tends to occur when housing costs increase faster than income. Figure 11 shows how dramatically the housing cost burden for owner- and renter - households is influenced by household income. As shown, among the lower income groups, larger proportions of renter - households experienced housing cost burden. Cost burden among owner households was more prevalent among the upper income groups.

Publicly Assisted Housing The availability and location of public and affordable housing may be a fair housing concern. If such housing is concentrated in one area of a community or a region, a household seeking affordable housing is restricted to choices within a limited geographic area. Public /affordable housing and housing assistance must be accessible to qualified households regardless of race /ethnicity, disability, or other special characteristics. 1. Public Housing Two housing authorities in the San Diego region own and operate public housing units (Figure 12 on page 3 -93) - the Housing Authority of the County of San Diego (HACSD) and the San Diego Housing Commission (SDHC). HACSD owns and administers public housing rental complexes (121 units), all of which are located in the City of Chula Vista. Eligible residents must be a senior (62 years of age or older), a disabled individual, or a low- income family and must live in one of the jurisdictions covered by CHAPTER 3: COMMUNITY PROFILE 86 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 454 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE HACSD. The household's annual gross income must be at or below 50 percent of the San Diego AMI. As of January 2015, 712 residents were living in properties managed by HACSD. As shown in Table 43, White (28.5 percent) and Hispanic (28.9 percent) individuals make up more than half of public housing residents and less than 10 percent are seniors or disabled. As federal subsidies to operate and maintain public housing began decreasing, and City -owned units became operationally restrictive and inefficient, SDHC opted out of the Conventional Public Housing Program in 2007 (which provided for the upkeep of 1,366 units). SDHC retained only a very small portion of the units under the Public Housing program (currently at 154 units). The converted units are now rent - restricted units that have become available at a varying range of affordable rents to households earning no greater than 80 percent AMI.41 The residents living in the City -owned complexes at the time of conversion were awarded Housing Choice Vouchers (formerly Section 8), which they used to remain in their current home or to move to another rental property that would accept Housing Choice Vouchers. As of January 2015, 137 households were living in properties managed by the SDHC. As shown in Table 43 Hispanic- headed households make up more than half of all households (60.6 percent).

The number of persons on the waiting list for public housing far exceeds current capacity. HACSD indicates that as of January 2015, there were 41,558 households on the waiting list. Close to 40 percent of waidisted households were Hispanic and about one quarter were Black. Households with a disabled person make up over one quarter of the waiting list. There are 36,827 households on the SDHC public housing waiting list Qanuary 2015). Close to a third of SDHC waidisted households included a disabled member; 37.6 percent of households are Hispanic and 27.4 percent are Black. With the extremely limited capacity and the length of tenancy, it is unlikely that the characteristics of the public housing residents would change substantially in the near future.

Housing Choice Vouchers Program The Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) program (formerly Section 8) is a rent subsidy program that helps low- income families and seniors pay rents of private units. HCV tenants pay a minimum of 30 percent of their income for rent and the local housing authority pays the difference up to the payment standard established by housing authority. The program offers low- income households the opportunity to obtain affordable, privately owned rental housing and to increase their housing choices. The housing authority establishes payment standards based on HUD - established Fair Market Rents. The owner's asking price must be supported by comparable rents in the area. The program participant pays any amount in the excess of the payment standard. There are currently six Housing Authorities that administer the Housing Choice Voucher program for San Diego County residents: ■ Housing Authority of the City of Carlsbad is allocated 703 Housing Choice Vouchers but due to funding limitations, was only able to utilize 532 Housing Choice Vouchers as of December 2014. There are 626 persons on the waiting list. ■ Housing Authority of the City of Encinitas is allocated 136 Housing Choice Vouchers but due to funding limitations, was only able to utilize 109 vouchers as of December 2014. There are 664 persons on the waiting list. ■ Housing Authority of the City of National City administers 1,123 vouchers as of December 2014. There are 3,614 persons on the waiting list. ■ Housing Authority of the City of Oceanside is allocated 1,373 vouchers as of December 2014 but assists an additional 156 households utilizing vouchers originating from other housing authorities. There are 6,604 persons on the waiting list. ■ San Diego Housing Commission (SDHC, City of San Diego) administers 12,685 vouchers as of January 2015. There are 53,742 persons on the waiting list. ■ Housing Authority of the County of San Diego (HACSD) administers 10,853 vouchers as of December 2014. There are 85,892 persons on the waiting list. As of December 2014 /January 2015, 26,624 San Diego County households were receiving HCV Assistance, with 87 percent of all vouchers administered by HACSD or SDHC. Table 45 summarizes the race and ethnicity of households assisted by the HCV program. Close to a third of the County's HCV recipients (32.4 percent) were Hispanic and 22 percent were Black. Senior and /or disabled households represent a significant portion of those assisted by the HCV program, making up 72.2 percent of all households receiving HCVs. Due to the geographic disparity in terms of rents, concentrations of voucher use have occurred (Table 46). For example, the City of El Cajon represents about three percent of the County population but more than 11 percent of the HCV use Furthermore, for the period ending in December 31, 2014, 28 percent (3,081 participants) of the 10,000+ vouchers administered by HACSD are concentrated in the City of El Cajon. National City also has a relatively high concentration of HCV use representing about two percent of the total population but more than four percent of the vouchers issued in San Diego County.

Sources: Area Housing Authorities 2014/2015 CHAPTER 3: COMMUNITY PROFILE 90 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 458 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Nationwide, nearly 4 million children live in families that receive federal rental assistance.42 This assistance helps families to afford decent, stable housing but it also has the potential to enable their children to grow up in better neighborhoods and thereby enhance their chances of long -term health and success. Historically, however, federal rental assistance programs have fallen short in helping families live in neighborhoods that provide these opportunities. In 2010, only 15 percent of the children in families that received rent subsidies through HUD lived in low- poverty neighborhoods, where fewer than 10 percent of the residents had incomes below the poverty line.43 To help with the de- concentration of HCV use and allow households to locate adequate housing at a location of their choice, SDHC's Moving Forward program works to provide families with tools to assist them to move from high - poverty neighborhoods to low- poverty neighborhoods. The ultimate goal of this initiative is to enhance opportunities for employment and education and to increase housing choices for low- income residents. The Moving Forward program is part of HUD's Moving to Work (MTW) demonstration program that allows public housing authorities (PHAs) to design and test various approaches for providing and administering housing assistance. The Choice Communities program (a subset of the Moving Forward program) provides families receiving federal rental assistance administered by the SDHC the opportunity to live in neighborhoods in the City of San Diego that offer a broader selection of schools and employment opportunities. Created by SDHC in 2010, the program offers incentives for rental assistance recipients to relocate to rental housing in nine neighborhoods designated as "Choice Communities." To make the move to a Choice Community less intimidating, the SDHC provides participants with information packets containing details about rental properties, schools, shopping centers, churches, public transportation and a city map showing parks and other neighborhood amenities. Most families receiving rental assistance typically pay no more than 40 percent of their adjusted monthly income towards their rent. However, because rents in more affluent neighborhoods are slightly higher than the citywide average, Choice Communities participants may pay up to 50 percent of their income toward their rent. Rental units in the following neighborhoods may qualify: 92106 -Point Loma 92037 -La Jolla 92119 -San Carlo 92128 - Rancho Bernardo 92124 - Tierrasanta 92127- Rancho Bernardo 92120 - Grantville 92131 - Scripps Miramar 92130 -Del Mar Heights Another important issue with the HCV program is the decreasing number of landlords willing to accept vouchers. In a tight housing market, landlords are typically able to capture high rents for the units and less likely to participate in government programs that place restrictions on rents, policies, and quality standards. Primarily in economically depressed neighborhoods, where the housing and neighborhood conditions are less than ideal, voucher recipients are most likely to find rental units that accept voucher payments. The HCV program was designed to offer families an alternative to living in conventional public housing developments. While not always true, many public housing projects were located in poor minority areas. The HCV program was intended to offer residents a chance to live in higher quality neighborhoods and have access to better schools and jobs. With owners opting out in more integrated 42 Sard, Barbara and Rice, Douglas, "Creating Opportunity for Children How Housing Location Can Make a Difference." Center on Budget and Policy Priorities.

Since the demand for housing assistance often exceeds the limited resources available, long waiting periods are common. The amount of time spent on the waiting list often varies, but the wait for rental assistance after a family is placed on the waiting list is usually between two and four years. These wait times can disproportionately impact seniors. As of December 2014 /January 2015, there were over 151,000 households on the HCV waiting list (Table 47).

Figure 12: Public and Assisted Housing Public and Assisted Housing CHAPTER 3: COMMUNITY PROFILE 93 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE 3. Other Affordable Housing Projects A number of developments countywide have set aside some or all of the units as affordable for low to moderate - income households. Together these projects provide approximately 32,800 units of affordable housing. The location of these units is shown on Figure 12, including Single Room Occupancy (SRO) Hotels available within the City of San Diego. As in typical urban environments throughout the country, lower- and moderate - income households tend to live in high- density areas, where the lower land costs per unit (i.e. more units on a piece of property) can result in lower development costs and associated lower housing payments. Therefore, the location of public /assisted housing is partly the result of economic feasibility. Concentrations of affordable housing are located in central San Diego, Chula Vista, National City, and Escondido. Close to 66 percent of all affordable units are located in these cities, much of that is in the City of San Diego (46.1 percent). Figure 12 also shows that in the western /coastal areas, the distribution of these units follows a somewhat similar pattern exhibited by the distribution of both low- and moderate - income population and minority population. However, this is not true for the desert communities where there is a lack of affordable housing resources but very few affordable housing units. Many residents priced out of the San Diego region have located themselves in North County Inland, where housing tends to be more affordable and the traditional single- family neighborhoods are more affordable than within San Diego proper. Many families are also moving to surrounding counties, particularly Riverside County, for affordable housing. The lack of affordable housing resources may become acute as the population in the region increases, especially given that the housing market is not keeping pace with the increasing population. The lack of affordable housing is also exacerbated by decreasing state and federal funds to purchase properties in higher- income areas to construct new affordable housing, and /or provide more first -time homebuyer assistance. Even as San Diego County's shortfall of affordable housing has become more critical, the state has reduced its direct funding for affordable housing significantly. The dissolution of redevelopment agencies led to a loss of more than $86 million annually in local investment in the production and preservation of affordable housing in San Diego County.` Exacerbating the state cuts is the simultaneous disinvestment in affordable housing by the federal government. Cuts to HOME and Community Development Block Grants (CDBG) have resulted in the loss of another $13.8 million in funding." These restrictions provide cities and counties limited ability to address the overconcentration of affordable housing in low- and moderate - income areas. Funding sources for affordable housing developments may inadvertently contribute to the concentration of affordable housing in lower income and lower opportunity areas. Local service providers indicate that specific competitive funding sources (such as tax credits) reward applications for new developments in underserved, lower income communities through a points process. as California Housing Partnership Corporation.

Licensed Community Care Facilities Persons with special needs, such as seniors and those with disabilities, must also have access to housing in a community. Community care facilities provide a supportive housing environment to persons with special needs in a group situation. Restrictions that prevent this type of housing represent a fair housing concern. According to the California Department of Social Services, Community Care Licensing Division, there are approximately 1,049 State - licensed residential care facilities for the elderly, 709 adult residential facilities, and 97 adult day care facilities throughout the County. These licensed care facilities have a combined capacity of just under 32,000 beds. The location of the various licensed care facilities in San Diego County is shown on Figure 13. Most of the community care facilities within the County are located within the larger incorporated cities. There is a noticeable absence of facilities in the unincorporated areas, specifically those surrounding the incorporated cities. While most of the County's population is located within the incorporated cities, residents living in unincorporated areas would have to travel a great distance to access the region's inventory of care facilities. Table 48 provides a tabulation of capacity of licensed care facilities for special needs persons by jurisdiction. The ratio of beds per 1,000 persons is used to identify concentration of residential care facilities. Licensed care facilities in San Diego County are most concentrated in Lemon Grove, Escondido, La Mesa, and El Cajon and are least concentrated in Imperial Beach. The Cities of San Diego, Escondido, Chula Vista, and El Cajon have the greatest number of facilities.

Licensed Care Facilities CHAPTER 3: COMMUNITY PROFILE 97 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE N. Accessibility to Public Transit and Services Having access to good schools, quality jobs, effective public transportation, and other social services helps facilitate a good quality of life and improved life outcomes. Unfortunately, research has shown that racial and ethnic minorities, individuals with disabilities, and other protected classes often have restricted access to these vital amenities. This section addresses access to public transit and employment as well as disparities in exposure to adverse community factors. 1. Public Transit Public transit should link lower - income persons, who are often transit dependent, to major employers where job opportunities exist. Access to employment via public transportation can reduce welfare usage rates and increase housing mobility, which enables residents to locate housing outside of traditionally lower- and moderate - income neighborhoods. The lack of a relationship between public transit, employment opportunities, and affordable housing may impede fair housing choice. Persons who depend on public transit may have limited choices regarding places to live. In addition, seniors and disabled persons also often rely on public transit to visit doctors, go shopping, or attend activities at community facilities. Public transit that provides a link between job opportunities, public services, and affordable housing helps to ensure that transit - dependent residents have adequate opportunity to access housing, services, and jobs. Access to public transit is of paramount importance to households affected by low incomes and rising housing prices. Public transit should strive to link lower income persons, who are often transit dependent, to major employers where job opportunities exist. Access to employment via public transportation can reduce welfare usage and increase housing mobility, which enables residents to locate housing outside of traditionally low- income neighborhoods.4(, 2009 -2013 ACS data for San Diego County shows that 3.1 percent (about 44,000) of workers 16 years or older used public transit to travel to work. Of those 44,000, over 60 percent earned incomes less than $25,000 per year and 44 percent were Hispanic. The San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) is the Regional Transportation Planning Authority is responsible for planning and allocating local, state, and federal funds for the region's transportation network. Two primary agencies are responsible for transit operations and services in the County: Metropolitan Transit System (MTS) and the North County Transit District (NCTD). Transit services provided by these agencies include commuter and light rail, fixed -route bus service, demand - response service, and paratransit. Transit services are primarily provided to the larger, more urbanized communities, although limited services are available in unincorporated areas. In addition, tribal governments operating casinos and non - profit agencies also provide transit services for their clients and customers. The NCTD and MTS also own and maintain the main rail line along the coast from downtown San Diego to the Orange County line, which is shared between Amtrak intercity, COASTER, and Metrolink commuter passenger rail services. NCTD also owns the rail corridor between Oceanside and Escondido, operating SPRINTER light rail service. Figure 14 illustrates the transit routes in relation to employment centers. av Ong, Paul and Evelyn Blumenberg, "Job Accessibility and Welfare Usage: Evidence from Los Angeles ". UCLA Department of Policy Studies, (1998). CHAPTER 3: COMMUNITY PROFILE 98 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 466 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE 2. Metropolitan Transit System (MTS) Metropolitan Transit System (MTS) provides bus and rail services directly or by contract with private operators and covers the central, southern, and eastern areas of the county. MTS coordinates all its services and determines the routing, stops, frequencies and hours of operation. Rural transit services link the sparsely populated central and eastern portions of San Diego County to the San Diego urban core. Each rural service is linked to the San Diego Trolley and other fixed -route transit services at the El Cajon Transit Center. These lines offer much less frequent service. MTS operates three bus rapid transit (BRT) lines branded as "SuperLoop" in the University City and La Jolla Village area serving the University of California, San Diego, Westfield UTC, Veteran's Administration Hospital, and residential districts. Several express fixed -route buses run along major roadways and highways and link suburban areas to the San Diego urban area. Some of the express bus routes only operate during the morning and evening weekday commute periods. The San Diego Trolley is a light rail system known colloquially as The Trolley or by tourists as The Red Trolley. The Trolley's operator, San Diego Trolley, Inc. (SDTI), is a wholly owned subsidiary of MTS. Trolley service operates on three daily lines: the Blue, Green, and Orange lines, stopping at 53 stations and over 52 miles of double track rail. MTS Access operates wheelchair lift- equipped buses, which provide transportation to transit riders whose disabilities prevent them from using fixed route bus or Trolley services. MTS Access provides complementary services that "mirror" the level of MTS service being offered within a 3/4 -mile radius of a nearby bus or trolley station. The program is in full compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA). 3. North County Transportation District (NCTD) North County Transit District (NCTD) serves more than 12 million passengers annually in North San Diego County, which includes the cities of Escondido, San Marcos, Vista, Oceanside, Carlsbad, Encinitas, Solana Beach, Del Mar, and portions of the unincorporated county. From Escondido's multimodal transit center, NCTD operates the BREEZE bus system, with bus stops located throughout the area, and manages the SPRINTER light rail line that provides passenger service from Escondido to Oceanside. The COASTER commuter train runs north and south through San Diego County, serving eight stations between Oceanside and downtown San Diego. More than 20 trains run on weekdays, with additional service on the weekends. LIFT vehicles provide origin to destination service for people with disabilities who are unable to use BREEZE buses due to their disability and have been certified for eligibility. Service is available for trips within 3/4 mile of fixed bus routes. FLEX is an on- demand service in parts of southwest Carlsbad, Encinitas, Solana Beach, and Ramona, where BREEZE service is not available. FLEX vehicles take passengers anywhere within the FLEX zone or to the nearest transfer point on the BREEZE, COASTER, or SPRINTER.

Metrolink The Metrolink is a commuter rail system serving Southern California. The rail system consists of seven lines and 55 stations operating on 388 miles of rail network. The system operates in Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, and Ventura counties. The Metrolink Orange County Line ends at the Oceanside Transit Center where it connects to SPRINTER and COASTER rail service. As shown in Figure 14, public transit providers serve large portions of the western side of the County. In particular, transit use is higher in parts of the region where the greatest investment in transit service has been made: the north coastal, central and south bay regions of the County. Almost all major employment centers in San Diego are served by some form of public transit. However, having regional access to jobs by means of public transit does not necessarily translate into stable employment. Low - income workers, especially female heads of household with children, have unique travel patterns that may prevent them from obtaining work far from home, regardless of access to public transit. Women in general are disproportionately responsible for household - supporting activities such as trips to grocery stores or accompanying young children to and from schools. Women using public transit are often limited to looking for employment near home, allowing them time to complete these household - sustaining trips.47 The Center for Housing Policy' has done extensive research showing that the real cost of housing includes the cost of a household's daily commute to work, and typically low income households spend a much higher proportion of after -tax income on transportation — about one -third — than the average household.4' 5. Major Employers As one of the major metropolitan areas in the country, San Diego County has a diverse economy. The San Diego County population and employment growth rates typically correlate to national economic cycles and are sensitive to military spending. Military employment is still concentrated in the region as San Diego County is home to major naval bases and the U.S. Marine base at Camp Pendleton. San Diego is the headquarters of the U.S. Navy's Eleventh Naval District and is the Navy's principal location for West Coast and Pacific Ocean operations. Naval Base San Diego is the principal home to the Pacific Fleet. Naval Air Station (NAS) North Island is located on the north side of Coronado, and is the headquarters for Naval Air Forces and Naval Air Force Pacific, the bulk of the Pacific Fleet's helicopter squadrons, and part of the West Coast aircraft carrier fleet. Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton is the major west coast base of the United States Marine Corps and serves as its prime amphibious training base. The City of San Diego is still the main employment center in the County, but major employers are located throughout the North Coastal, Central Coastal and South Bay sub - regions. Major employers in the region include colleges, university campuses, military, federal and state government, and hospitals 47 Blumenberg, Evelyn.

Inland /desert areas are still relatively scarce with regard to employment opportunities. The closest major employers to the inland /desert areas are the eight Indian casino /gaming /lodging centers. Because of its location along the Mexican border and adjacent to the Pacific Ocean, international trade is a major economic strength for the region. The border between San Diego and Mexico is the busiest in the world and the San Diego Port contributes a significant number of jobs to the region. Figure 14 shows that public transit routes provide adequate access to employment centers on the western side of the county. In the eastern inland areas, public transit access and major employers are scarce.

Affordable Housing and Public Transit Limited access to public transit may counteract some of the benefits of affordable housing. Current research indicates a strong connection between housing and transportation costs. Housing market patterns in parts of California with job -rich city centers are pushing lower- income families to the outskirts of urban areas, where no transit is available to connect them with jobs and services. In lower - income communities with underserved city centers, many residents must commute out to suburban job - rich areas. In an attempt to save money on housing, many lower- income households are spending disproportionately higher amounts on transportation. A study conducted by the Center for Housing Policy revealed that families who spend more than half of their income on housing spend only eight percent on transportation, while families who spend 30 percent or less of their income on housing spend almost 24 percent on transportation.S) This equates to more than three times the amount spent by persons living in less affordable housing. Figure 15 illustrates the location of the County's affordable housing stock in relation to regional transit services. Many affordable housing projects are located in close proximity to regional transit routes, with the exception of the eastern portions of the County, where few assisted units are located. Affordable housing developments that are located further than one - quarter mile from a transit stop are more prevalent in the North County area and in the northernmost areas of the City of San Diego. A noticeable cluster of affordable units in the community of Fallbrook is located further than one - quarter mile from a transit stop. 50 Lipman, Barbara J.

ADA- Compliant Public Facilities (Section 504 Assessment) Access to civic life by people with disabilities is a fundamental goal of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). To ensure that this goal is met, Title II of the ADA requires State and local governments to make their programs and services accessible to persons with disabilities. This requirement not only extends to physical access at government facilities, programs, and events, but also to policy changes that governmental entities must make to ensure that all people with disabilities can take part in, and benefit from, the programs and services of State and local governments. The development of an ADA Transition Plan is a requirement of the federal regulations implementing the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, which require that all organizations receiving federal funds make their programs available without discrimination to persons with disabilities. The Transition Plan (also known as a Program Access Plan) identifies physical obstacles that limit the accessibility of facilities to individuals with disabilities, describes the prescribed methods to make the facilities accessible, provides a schedule for making the access modifications, and identifies the public officials responsible for implementation of the transition plan. The County of San Diego has indicated that their government facilities are ADA- compliant. The City of San Diego conducted a Self- Evaluation as mandated under the ADA. From that analysis, a required transition plan was created which included 212 high use city facilities that needed physical modifications to make them accessible. As of 2014, the transition plan is approximately 93 percent complete and funding has been requested to address ADA improvements for the remaining seven percent of the identified facilities list. Several cities (El Cajon, Encinitas, Escondido, La Mesa, and National City) indicated that they are in substantial compliance with ADA requirements and they have or are in the process of completing a Self - Evaluation or ADA Transition Plan, which is used to prioritize needed ADA improvements. The cities of Oceanside, San Marcos, and Vista indicated that their government facilities are ADA- compliant, as all improvements identified in their ADA Transitions Plans were completed. P. Exposure to Adverse Community Factors Communities must consider fair housing when addressing environmental concerns because either the problems themselves, or treatment of the problems, may have a disproportionate effect on some residents. Of particular concern are environmental risks to vulnerable populations, including pregnant women, young children, and individuals with disabilities —all of whom are protected under fair housing law. 1. Public Schools Public schools within San Diego County are grouped by 23 elementary school districts, six high school districts, 13 unified school districts, and five community college districts. The San Diego County Office of Education provides a variety of services for these 42 school districts, 119 charter schools, and five community college districts in the County. CHAPTER 3: COMMUNITY PROFILE 105 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 473 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE As part of President Johnson's "War on Poverty," the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), passed in 1965. The ESEA is often regarded as the most far - reaching federal legislation affecting education ever passed by Congress. The act is an extensive statute that funds primary and secondary education, while emphasizing equal access to education and establishing high standards and accountability. A major component of ESEA is a series of programs typically referred to as "Title I ". Title I provides financial assistance to states and school districts to meet the needs of educationally at- risk students. To qualify as a Title 1 school, a campus typically must have around 40 percent or more of its students coming from families who are low- income. The goal of Title I is to provide extra instructional services and activities which support students identified as failing or most at risk of failing the state's challenging performance standards in mathematics, reading, and writing. Figure 16 shows the location of Title I schools in San Diego County. While there are Title I schools in most cities, the geographic distribution of Title I schools matches the geographic distribution of minorities and low- and moderate - income persons. Addressing access to higher achieving schools is important, as studies have shown that low- income children who live in low- poverty neighborhoods and consistently attend high- quality schools perform significantly better academically than those who do not.sl 51 Sard, Barbara and Rice, Douglas.

Environmental Exposure California state law defines environmental justice to mean "the fair treatment of people of all races, cultures, and incomes with respect to the development, adoption, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies.iSZ As a first step to assuring that all persons have access to environmental justice, the State of California is working to identify the areas of the State that face multiple pollution burdens so programs and funding can be targeted appropriately toward improving the environmental and economic health of impacted communities. Many residents live in the midst of multiple sources of pollution and some people and communities are more vulnerable to the effects of pollution than others. The California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) developed a screening methodology to help identify California communities disproportionately burdened by multiple sources of pollution called the California Communities Environmental Health Screening Tool (CalEnviroScreen). In addition to environmental factors (pollutant exposure, groundwater threats, toxic sites, and hazardous materials exposure) and sensitive receptors (seniors, children, persons with asthma, and low birth weight infants), CalEnviroScreen also takes into consideration socioeconomic factors. These factors include educational attainment, linguistic isolation, poverty, and unemployment. Research has shown a heightened vulnerability of people of color and lower socioeconomic status to environmental pollutants. Figure 17 shows the County's CalEnviroScreen scores. High scoring communities tend to be more burdened by pollution from multiple sources and most vulnerable to its effects, taking into account their socioeconomic characteristics and underlying health status. As expected, the areas indicated as having higher EnviroScreen scores matches the geographic distribution of minorities, low- and moderate - income persons, and poverty concentrations. 52 California Senate Bill 115 (Chapter 690, Statutes of 1999).

This chapter reviews the lending practices of financial institutions and the access to financing for all households, particularly minority households. Lending patterns in low and moderate income neighborhoods and areas of minority concentration are also examined. However, publicly available data on lending does not contain the detailed information necessary to make conclusive statements of discrimination, but it can point out potential areas of concern. Furthermore, except for outreach and education efforts, local jurisdictions' ability to influence lending practices is limited. Such practices are largely governed by national policies and regulations. A. Background Discriminatory practices in home mortgage lending have evolved in the last five to six decades. In the 1940s and 1950s, racial discrimination in mortgage lending was easy to spot. From government - sponsored racial covenants to the redlining practices of private mortgage lenders and financial institutions, minorities were denied access to home mortgages in ways that severely limited their ability to purchase a home. Today, discriminatory lending practices are more subtle and tend to take different forms. While mortgage loans are readily available in low income or minority communities, by employing high- pressure sales practices and deceptive tactics, some mortgage brokers push minority borrowers into higher -cost subprime mortgages that are not well suited to their needs and can lead to financial problems. Consequently, minority consumers continue to have less- than -equal access to the best loan prices and terms that their credit history, income, and other individual financial considerations may merit. 1. Legislative Protection In the past, credit market distortions and other activities such as "redlining" were prevalent and prevented some groups from having equal access to credit. The Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) in 1977 and the subsequent Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA) were designed to improve access to credit for all members of the community and hold the lender industry responsible for community lending. 2. Community Reinvestment Act The Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) is intended to encourage regulated financial institutions to help meet the credit needs of their entire communities, including low and moderate income neighborhoods. Depending on the type of institution and total assets, a lender may be examined by different supervising agencies for its CRA performance. CHAPTER 4: LENDING PRACTICES 110 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 478 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE CRA ratings are provided by the Federal Reserve Board (FRB), Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC), Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), and Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC). However, the CRA rating is an overall rating for an institution and does not provide insights regarding the lending performance at specific locations by the institution. 3. Home Mortgage Disclosure Act In tandem with the CRA, the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act requires lending institutions to make annual public disclosures of their home mortgage lending activity. Under HMDA, lenders are required to disclose information on the disposition of home loan applications and on the race or national origin, gender, and annual income of loan applicants. This section examines detailed 2008 and 2013 HMDA data for San Diego County. 13 HMDA data provide some insight into the lending patterns exist in a community. However, HMDA data are only an indicator of potential problems; the data cannot be used to conclude definite redlining or discrimination practices due to lack of detailed information on loan terms or specific reasons denial. HMDA data can indicate that potential problems but cannot conclude definite redlining or discrimination practices. the for 4. Conventional versus Government- Backed Financing Conventional financing involves market -rate loans provided by private lending institutions such as banks, mortgage companies, savings and loans, and thrift institutions. To assist lower and moderate income households that may have difficulty in obtaining home mortgage financing in the private market due to income and equity issues, several government agencies offer loan products that have below market interest rates and are insured ( "backed ") by the agencies. Sources of government- backed financing include loans insured by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), and the Rural Housing Services /Farm Service Agency (RHA /FSA). Often government- backed loans are offered to the consumers through private lending institutions. Local programs such as first -time homebuyer and rehabilitation programs are not subject to HMDA reporting requirements and therefore are not included in this analysis. Typically, low income households have a much better chance of getting a government- assisted loan than a conventional loan. However, the pre -2009 lending market offered subprime loan options such as zero percent down, interest -only, and adjustable loans. As a result, government- backed loans were a less attractive option for many households then. In recent years, however, heightened lending restrictions were put into place to severely limit the issuance of risky subprime loans. In addition, the federal government created a government- insured foreclosure avoidance initiative in September 2007, FHASecure, to assist tens of thousands of borrowers nation -wide in refinancing their subprime home loans. As government- backed loans were again publicized and subprime loans became less of an option to borrowers, 2013 saw an increase in the number of government- backed loan applications in San Diego 53 2013 HMDA data is the most updated lending data available. 2014 HMDA data would not be available until Fall 2015. 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet CHAPTER 4: LENDING PRACTICES 111 Page 479 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE County. Expanded marketing to assist potential homeowners in understanding the requirements and benefits of these loans may still be necessary, though. 5. Financial Stability Act The Financial Stability Act of 2009 established the Making Home Affordable Program, which assists eligible homeowners who can no longer afford their home with mortgage loan modifications and other options, including short sale or deed -in -lieu of foreclosure. The program is targeted toward homeowners facing foreclosure and homeowners who are unemployed or "underwater" (i.e., homeowners who owe more on their mortgage than their home is worth). The Making Home Affordable Program includes several options for homeowners in need of assistance: ■ The Home Affordable Modification Program (HAMP) reduces a homeowner's monthly mortgage payment to 31 percent of their verified gross (pre -tax) income to make their payments more affordable. ■ The Second Lien Modification Program (2MP) offers homeowners a way to lower payments on their second mortgage. ■ The Home Affordable Refinance Program (HARP) assists homeowners whose mortgages are current and held by the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae) or the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) refinance into a more affordable mortgage. ■ An Unemployment Program provides eligible homeowners a forbearance period during which their monthly mortgage payments are reduced or suspended while they seek re- employment The minimum forbearance period is three months, although a mortgage servicer may extend the term depending on applicable investor and regulatory guidelines. ■ The Principal Reduction Program offers homeowners who are underwater the opportunity to earn principal reductions over a three -year period by successfully making payments in accordance with their modified loan terms. ■ For homeowners who can no longer afford their homes but do not want to go into foreclosure, the Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternatives Program (HAFA) offers homeowners, their mortgage servicers, and investors incentives for completing a short sale or deed -in -lieu of foreclosure. HAFA enables homeowners to transition to more affordable housing while being released from their mortgage debt. The program also includes a "cash for keys" component whereby a homeowner receives financial assistance to help with relocation costs in return for vacating their property in good condition. 6. Helping Families Save Their Homes Act The Helping Families Save Their Homes Act was passed by Congress in May 2009 and expands the Making Home Affordable Program. This Act includes provisions to make mortgage assistance and foreclosure prevention services more accessible to homeowners and increases protections for renters living in foreclosed homes. It also establishes the right of a homeowner to know who owns their mortgage and provides over two billion dollars in funds to address homelessness. CHAPTER 4: LENDING PRACTICES 112 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 480 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE The Act targets underwater borrowers by easing restrictions on refinance and requiring principal write- downs to help these homeowners increase the equity in their homes. The new law also provides federally guaranteed Rural Housing loans and FHA loans as part of the Making Homes Affordable Program. In addition to expanding the Making Homes Affordable Program, the Act extends the temporary increase in deposit insurance, increases the borrowing authority of the FDIC and National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), and creates a Stabilization Fund to address problems in the corporate credit union sector. Under this bill, tenants also have the right to stay in their homes after foreclosure for 90 days or through the term of their lease. Prior to this bill, tenants were only guaranteed 60 days of notice before eviction and any current lease was considered terminated in the event of a foreclosure. This Act extends the 60- day notification period to 90 days and requires banks to honor any existing lease on a property in foreclosure. 7. Fraud Enforcement and Recovery Act The Fraud Enforcement and Recovery Act (FERA) enhances the criminal enforcement of federal fraud laws by strengthening the capacity of federal prosecutors and regulators to hold accountable those who have committed fraud. FERA amends the definition of a financial institution to include private mortgage brokers and non -bank lenders that are not directly regulated or insured by the federal government, making them liable under federal bank fraud criminal statutes. The new law also makes it illegal to make a materially false statement or to willfully overvalue a property in order to manipulate the mortgage lending business. In addition, FERA includes provisions to protect funds expended under TARP and the Recovery Act and amends the Federal securities statutes to cover fraud schemes involving commodity futures and options. Additional funds were also made available under FERA to a number of enforcement agencies in order to investigate and prosecute fraud. B. Overall Lending Patterns 1. Data and Methodology The availability of financing affects a person's ability to purchase or improve a home. Under the HMDA, lending institutions are required to disclose information on the disposition of loan applications by the income, gender, and race of the applicants. This applies to all loan applications for home purchases, improvements, and refinancing, whether financed at market rate or with government assistance. HMDA data are submitted by lending institutions to the FFIEC. Certain data is available to the public via the FFIEC site either in raw data format or as pre -set printed reports. The analyses of HMDA data presented in this Al were conducted using Lending Patterns "'M. Lending Patterns is a web -based data exploration tool that analyzes lending records to produce reports on various aspects of mortgage lending. It analyzes HMDA data to assess market share, approval rates, denial rates, low /moderate income lending, and high -cost lending, among other aspects. 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet CHAPTER 4: LENDING PRACTICES 113 Page 481 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE 2. General Overview A detailed summary of the disposition of loan applications submitted to financial institutions in 2008 and 2013 (the most recent HMDA data available) by residents (or prospective residents) of San Diego County can be found in Appendix B. Included is information on loan types and outcomes. In 2013, the cities of San Diego, Chula Vista, and Oceanside recorded the most loan applications, while the cities of Del Mar, Coronado, and Solana Beach recorded the fewest due to the built out character of these small communities. The loan approval rates varied somewhat by jurisdiction. Applications from the cities of Poway, La Mesa, Santee, and Encinitas generally exhibited higher approval rates (over 73 percent). By contrast, applications from the cities of National City, Lemon Grove, and Chula Vista had slightly lower approval rates (ranging from 63 percent to 68 percent). Overall, approval rates were noticeably higher in 2013 than in 2008. In 2008, the cities of Del Mar, Carlsbad, and Encinitas recorded the highest home loan approval rates; however, these approval rates only ranged from 64 to 67 percent. The cities with the lowest loan approval rates were the same in 2008 as in 2013 (National City, Lemon Grove, Chula Vista, and also Imperial Beach), but, again, these rates were significantly lower in 2008 (all under 54 percent). Aside from income, another major impediment to securing a home loan is insufficient understanding of the homebuying and lending processes. About 16 percent of all applications countywide were withdrawn by the applicants or deemed incomplete by the financial institution in 2008. The rate of withdrawn or incomplete applications was similar in 2013 (14 percent). Jurisdictions with the lowest approval rates (National City, Lemon Grove, and Chula Vista) also had the highest rates of withdrawn /closed applications. Withdrawn or closed applications can be indicative of a lack of knowledge about the homebuying and lending process. 3. Home Purchase Loans In 2013, a total of 32,571 households applied for conventional loans to purchase homes in San Diego County, representing a decrease of approximately 18 percent from 2008. This trend is indicative of a housing market that is slowly recovering from its peak in 2006 -2007. The approval rate countywide in 2013 for conventional home purchase loans was 76 percent, while the denial rate was 11 percent. As mentioned previously, approval rates were significantly lower in 2008. Specifically, the countywide approval rate for conventional home purchase loans was 66 percent in 2008 and the denial rate was 19 percent. When the housing market began to show signs of collapse and foreclosures were on the rise in 2007, many financial institutions instituted stricter approval criteria for potential borrowers, which caused approval rates to drop. However, as time passed, the applicant pool for mortgage lending also became smaller and increasingly selective. Applicants from recent years have generally been in much better shape financially than pre -2010 applicants, which has led to increased approval rates.

Source: www.lendingl2attems.com, 2014 As an alternative to conventional home loans, potential homeowners can choose to apply for government- backed home purchase loans when buying their homes. In a conventional loan, the lender takes on the risk of losing money in the event a borrower defaults on a mortgage. For government - backed loans, the loan is insured, either completely or partially, by the government. The government does not provide the loan itself, but instead promises to repay some or all of the money in the event a borrower defaults. This reduces the risk for the lender when making a loan. Government- backed loans generally have more lenient credit score requirements, lower downpayment requirements, and are available to those with recent bankruptcies. However, these loans may also carry higher interest rates and most require homebuyers to purchase mortgage insurance. Furthermore, government- backed loans have strict limits on the amount a homebuyer can borrow for the purchase of a home. In competitive and high -end housing markets, many of the homes available for purchase exceed the maximum allowable loan amount. In 2013, 13,122 San Diego County households applied for government- backed loans — comparable in terms of the number of households who applied for this type of loan in 2008 (11,236 households), but represented a higher proportion of all loan applicants in 2013. Like approval rates for conventional loans, the approval rate for government- backed loans also increased from 2008 to 2013 (from 69 percent to 73 percent).

Home Improvement Loans Reinvestment in the form of home improvement is critical to maintaining the supply of safe and adequate housing. Historically, home improvement loan applications have a higher rate of denial when compared to home purchase loans. Part of the reason is that an applicant's debt -to- income ratio may exceed underwriting guidelines when the first mortgage is considered with consumer credit balances. Another reason is that many lenders use the home improvement category to report both second mortgages and equity -based lines of credit, even if the applicant's intent is to do something other than improve the home (e.g., pay for a wedding or college). Loans that will not be used to improve the home are viewed less favorably since the owner is divesting in the property by withdrawing accumulated wealth. From a lender's point of view, the reduction in owner's equity represents a higher risk. In 2013, 4,968 applications for home improvement loans were submitted by San Diego County households -lower than the number of applications for this loan type in 2008 (6,015 applications). Generally, the approval rates for home improvement loans were lower than for home purchase loans. The overall approval rate for home improvement loans in 2013 was 59 percent while 30 percent of these CHAPTER 4: LENDING PRACTICES 116 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 484 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE applications were denied. As discussed previously, countywide approval rates were even lower in 2008 (42 percent) for this loan type. 5. Refinancing Homebuyers will refinance existing home loans for a number of reasons. Refinancing can allow homebuyers to take advantage of better interest rates, consolidate multiple debts into one loan, reduce monthly payments, alter risk (i.e. by switching from variable rate to fixed rate loans), or free up cash and capital. The majority of loan applications submitted by San Diego County households in 2013 were for home refinancing (119,225 applications). This figure is nearly double the number of refinancing applications submitted in 2008 (60,844 applications). The dramatic increase in applications for refinancing may, in part, be due to the Home Affordable Refinance Program (HARP), which enables underwater homeowners (those who owe more than their house is worth) to refinance into a less costly loan. About 69 percent of refinance applications were approved and 17 percent were denied in 2013. As mentioned earlier, these approval rates represent a considerable increase from 2008, when just 52 percent of refinance applications were approved. C. Lending by Race /Ethnicity and Income The federal Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination in mortgage lending based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status or handicap (disability). It is, therefore, important to look not just at overall approval and denial rates for a jurisdiction, but also whether or not these rates vary by other factors, such as race /ethnicity. (Race /ethnicity is the only personal characteristic available from the HMDA data.) 1. Loan Applicant Representation In a perfect environment, the applicant pool for mortgage lending should be reflective of the demographics of a community. When one racial /ethnic group is overrepresented or underrepresented in the total applicant pool, it could be an indicator of unequal access to housing opportunities. Such a finding may be a sign that access to mortgage lending is not equal for all individuals. As shown in Table 50, throughout San Diego County, White applicants were noticeably overrepresented in the loan applicant pool, while Hispanics were severely underrepresented. The underrepresentation of Hispanics was most acute in the cities of Imperial Beach ( -33 percent), Vista ( -35 percent), and Escondido ( -36 percent). Detailed comparisons of the applicant pool with overall demographics by jurisdiction can be found in Appendix B.

Local jurisdiction data can be found in Appendix B. Source: Bureau of the Census, 2010; www.lendingpatterns.com, 2014 2. Race by Income Level In addition to looking at whether access to lending is equal, it is important to analyze lending outcomes for any signs of potential discrimination by race /ethnicity. In 2013, in every ethnic category, San Diego did better than the nation. Nationally, 13.3 percent of Asians applying for mortgages were turned down; in the City of San Diego, the number was 11.6 percent. Nationally, 21.9 percent of Hispanics were turned down for a conventional mortgage; in San Diego, the percentage was 13.7. Nationally, 10.4 percent of whites were turned down; in San Diego, the percentage was 9.4. 14 Generally speaking, approval rates for loans tend to increase as household income increases; however, lending outcomes should not vary significantly by race /ethnicity among applicants of the same income level. Table 51 below summarizes lending outcomes by race /ethnicity and income in San Diego County. White applicants at all income levels generally had the highest approval rates. Similarly high approval rates were recorded for Asian applicants, although there was some variation by jurisdiction. Approval rates for Black and Hispanic applicants, however, were well below the approval rates for White and Asian applicants in the same income groups in 2008. These gaps had narrowed somewhat by 2013, but were still present. Specifically, Black applicants consistently had the lowest approval rates compared to other racial /ethnic groups in the same income groups. The largest discrepancies (between loan approval rates for White and Asian applicants versus Black and Hispanic applicants) in 2013 were recorded in the cities of El Cajon, Poway, and San Diego. Detailed lending outcomes by race /ethnicity and income for each jurisdiction can be found in Appendix B. While this analysis provides a more in -depth look at lending patterns, it does not conclusively explain any of the discrepancies observed. Aside from income, many other factors can contribute to the 54 Don Bauder, "San Diego, mortgage hot spot," The San Diego Reader, February 10, 2015. CHAPTER 4: LENDING PRACTICES 118 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 486 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE availability of financing, including credit history, the availability and amount of a downpayment, and knowledge of the homebuying process. HMDA data does not provide insight into these other factors.

Lending Patterns by Tract Characteristics 1. Income Level To identify potential geographic differences in mortgage lending activities, an analysis of the HMDA data was conducted by census tract. Based on the Census, HMDA defines the following income levels:--' • Low- Income Tract - Tract Median Income less than or equal to 49 percent AMI • Moderate- Income Tract - Tract Median Income between 50 and 79 percent AMI • Middle- Income Tract- Tract Median Income between 80 and 119 percent AMI • Upper- Income Tract - Tract Median Income equal to or greater than 120 percent AMI The vast majority of census tracts in San Diego County are considered middle or upper income. Only three percent of the County's census tracts are categorized as low income by HMDA. Most loan applications were submitted by residents from one of the County's upper- income tracts. Table 52 summarizes lending outcomes by the income level of the census tract where an applicant resides. In general, home loan approval rates increased and denial rates decreased as the income level of the census tract increased. Higher income households are more likely to qualify for and be approved for loans, so this trend is to be expected.

CHAPTER 4: LENDING PRACTICES 120 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 488 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE 2. Minority Population HMDA also records lending outcomes by the proportion of minorities residing in a census tract. Much of San Diego County is comprised of census tracts where 20 to 40 percent of residents are minorities. Table 53 summarizes lending outcomes by the proportion of minority residents in a census tract. In general, approval rates steadily increased as the proportion of minority residents decreased.

Source: www.lendingpattems.com, 2014. E. Performance by Lender 1. General Overview Table 54 identifies the top ten lenders in San Diego County in 2013. As shown, these top lenders were similarly active throughout most jurisdictions, though some cities (specifically Chula Vista, Imperial Beach, National City, and Solana Beach) appeared to favor a wider range of less popular financial institutions. This is a general pattern throughout California (and perhaps the nation), where communities with higher concentrations of Hispanic population tend to rely more on credit unions than commercial banks for mortgage financing. In 2013, about 47 percent (79,185 applications) of all loan applications in San Diego County were submitted to one of the County's top ten lenders. The region's top three lenders have remained fairly consistent since 2008, with the only significant changes being the purchase of Countrywide Bank by CHAPTER 4: LENDING PRACTICES 121 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 489 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Bank of America and Wells Fargo's acquisition of Wachovia Mortgage (Table 54). The region's remaining top lenders are all smaller financial institutions that each accounted for less than three percent of the County's market share.

Approval Rates Approval rates for the County's top lenders fluctuated substantially by institution and jurisdiction; however, as noted before, approval rates have increased markedly since 2008. Overall in 2013, approval rates by top lenders ranged from 54 percent (Citibank, NA) to 87 percent (Flagstar Bank, FSB). While high approval rates do not necessarily indicate wrongdoing by a specific institution, they can be a sign of aggressive lending practices on the part of the lender. In particular, smaller, less prominent financial institutions with significantly high approval rates may be a concern. Because these institutions captured a much smaller share of loan applications than Wells Fargo Bank, NA, Bank of America, NA, and JP Morgan Chase Bank, NA, this discrepancy may not be significant. 3. Withdrawn and Incomplete Applications Under current banking regulations, lenders are required to hold a given interest rate for a borrower for a period of 60 days. Borrowers, however, are under no obligation to actually follow through on the loan during this time and can withdraw their application. In mortgage lending, fallout refers to a loan application that is withdrawn by the borrower before the loan is finalized. Typically for - profit lenders should have little fallout and none that varies by race, ethnicity or gender. Several top lenders in San Diego County had higher than average rates of withdrawn or incomplete applications in 2013. Closed applications refer to applications that are closed by the lender due to incompleteness. In instances where a loan application is incomplete, lenders are required to send written notification to the CHAPTER 4: LENDING PRACTICES 123 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 491 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE applicant and request the missing information be turned over within a designated timeframe. If this notice is given and the applicant does not comply within the specified time, the lender can close the application for incompleteness. A high rate of incomplete loans can indicate a lack of financial literacy on the part of the borrower and the process of loan application is too cumbersome to navigate. Several studies have correlated financial literacy with a borrower's income level. Specifically, lower income individuals have been found to be the least knowledgeable about finance. 16 Insufficient lender assistance during the application process can also lead to high levels of incomplete applications. The lack of lender assistance may be discriminatory in motive or outcome; however, HMDA data cannot be used to prove motive. During 2013, Citibank, NA was the only lender that had a noticeably higher rate of withdrawn and closed applications compared to other top lenders in San Diego County. A significant disparity in fallout could be an indicator of an overly complicated application process for a particular lender or suggest something even more troubling, such as screening, differential processing, HMDA Action misclassification, and /or the potential of discouragement of minority applications. Also of note, less than one percent each of applications to Quicken Loans, Inc., Flagstar Bank, FSB, and San Diego County Credit Union were withdrawn or closed in 2013. 4. Top Lenders by Race /Ethnicity Top lenders in the County varied by jurisdiction, as mentioned previously, as well as by the race /ethnicity of applicants. Certain lenders, for example, appeared to be more popular among particular racial /ethnic groups (Table 56). For example: Hispanic applicants comprised about 12 percent of the County's total applicant pool in 2013. However, they made up a slightly higher proportion of the applicant pool for Bank of America (17 percent). ■ Black applicants represented approximately two percent of the County's total applicant pool. NAVY Federal Credit Union, though, had a noticeably higher proportion of Black applicants (seven percent). Asian applicants comprised approximately ten percent of the total applicant pool in the County and appeared to heavily favor Chicago Mortgage Solutions, where Asian applicants comprised 19 percent of that particular lender's applicant pool. 56 Collins, Michael. 2009.

F. Sub -Prime Lending Market According to the Federal Reserve, "prime" mortgages are offered to persons with excellent credit and employment history and income adequate to support the loan amount. "Subprime" loans are loans to borrowers who have less -than- perfect credit history, poor employment history, or other factors such as limited income. By providing loans to those who do not meet the critical standards for borrowers in the prime market, subprme lending can and does serve a critical role in increasing levels of homeownership. Households that are interested in buying a home but have blemishes in their credit record, insufficient credit history, or non - traditional income sources may be otherwise unable to purchase a home. The subprme loan market offers these borrowers opportunities to obtain loans that they would be unable to realize in the prime loan market. Subprime lenders generally offer interest rates that are higher than those in the prime market and often lack the regulatory oversight required for prime lenders because they are not owned by regulated financial institutions. In the recent past, however, many large and well-known banks became involved in the Subprime market either through acquisitions of other firms or by initiating subprme loans directly. Though the Subprime market usually follows the same guiding principles as the prime market, a number of specific risk factors are associated with this market. According to a joint HUD /Department of the Treasury report, Subprime lending generally has the following characteristics :57 Higher Risk: Lenders experience higher loan defaults and losses by Subprime borrowers than by prime borrowers. 57 U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. 2000. "Unequal Burden In Los Angeles: Income and Racial Disparities in Subprime Lending." CHAPTER 4: LENDING PRACTICES 125 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 493 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE ■ Lower Loan Amounts: On average, loans in the subprime mortgage market are smaller than loans in the prime market. ■ Higher Costs to Originate: Subprime loans may be more costly to originate than prime loans since they often require additional review of credit history, a higher rate of rejected or withdrawn applications and fixed costs such as appraisals, that represent a higher percentage of a smaller loan. ■ Faster Prepayments: Subprime mortgages tend to be prepaid at a much faster rate than prime mortgages. ■ Higher Fees: Subprime loans tend to have significantly higher fees due to the factors listed above. Subprime lending can both impede and extend fair housing choice. On the one hand, subprime loans extend credit to borrowers who potentially could not otherwise finance housing. The increased access to credit by previously underserved consumers and communities contributed to record high levels of homeownership among minorities and lower income groups. On the other hand, these loans left many lower income and minority borrowers exposed to default and foreclosure risk. Since foreclosures destabilize neighborhoods and subprime borrowers are often from lower income and minority areas, mounting evidence suggests that classes protected by fair housing faced the brunt of the recent subprime and mortgage lending market collapse.-" While HMDA data does not classify loans as subprime, it does track the interest rate spread on loans. Since 2005, the Federal Reserve Board has required lenders to report rate spreads for loans whose APR was above the Treasury benchmark. Loans with a reported spread are typically referred to as higher - priced or subprime loans. Table 57: Reported Spread on Loans by Race /Ethnicity (2008 -2013) San Diego County Frequency of Spread Average Spread 2008 2013 2008 2013 White 4.0% 1.6 %, 3.99 2.55 Black 7.9% 3.2 %, 3.75 2.28 Hispanic 8.4% 3.7 %, 3.77 2.39 Asian 3.2% 1.2% 3.72 2.11 Total 4.5% 1.8% —nor 2.43 Source: www.lendingpattems.com, 2014. As shown in Table 57, the number of subprime loans issued has decreased substantially over time. In 2008, approximately five percent of all loans issued had a reported spread but, by 2013, less than two percent of loans issued were subprime loans. What appears to be most troubling, however, is that Black 58 Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now. September 2007. "Foreclosure Exposure: A Study of Racial and Income Disparities in Home Mortgage Lending in 172 American Cities." CHAPTER 4: LENDING PRACTICES 126 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 494 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE and Hispanic applicants seem to be significantly more likely to receive these higher- priced loans. In 2008 and 2013, Blacks and Hispanics were twice as likely as Whites and Asians to receive a subprime loan. Since 2008, not only has there been a decline in the number of subprime loans issued, there has also been a decrease in the magnitude of spread reported on these loans. Generally, the higher the reported spread on a loan, the worse that loan is compared to a standard prime loan. In 2008, the average reported spread for a subprime loan was just under four points; by 2013, the average reported spread had dropped to below two and one -half points. There was virtually no difference in the reported magnitude of spread for subprime loans by race /ethnicity of the applicant. G. Predatory Lending With an active housing market, potential predatory lending practices by financial institutions may arise. Predatory lending involves abusive loan practices usually targeting minority applicants or those with less - than- perfect credit histories. Typical predatory lending practices include: -" ■ Inadequate or False Disclosure: The lender hides or misrepresents the true costs, risks and /or appropriateness of a loan's terms, or the lender changes the loan terms after the initial offer. • Risk -Based Pricing: While all lenders depend on some form of risk -based pricing — tying interest rates to credit history — predatory lenders abuse the practice by charging very high interest rates to high -risk borrowers who are most likely to default. • Inflated Fees and Charges: Fees and costs (e.g., appraisals, closing costs, document preparation fees) are much higher than those charged by reputable lenders, and are often hidden in fine print. • Loan Packing: Unnecessary products like credit insurance — which pays off the loan if a homebuyer dies — are added into the cost of a loan. • Loan Flipping: The lender encourages a borrower to refinance an existing loan into a larger one with a higher interest rate and additional fees. • Asset -Based Lending: Borrowers are encouraged to borrow more than they should when a lender offers a refinance loan based on their amount of home equity, rather than on their income or ability to repay. • Reverse Redlining: The lender targets limited- resource neighborhoods that conventional banks may shy away from. Everyone in the neighborhood is charged higher rates to borrow money, regardless of credit history, income or ability to repay. • Balloon Mortgages: A borrower is convinced to refinance a mortgage with one that has lower payments upfront but excessive (balloon) payments later in the loan term. When the balloon payments cannot be met, the lender helps to refinance again with another high- interest, high -fee loan. 59 Al Krulick, "Predatory Lending." www.debt.or . Accessed February 17, 2015. 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet CHAPTER 4: LENDING PRACTICES 127 Page 495 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Negative Amortization: This occurs when a monthly loan payment is too small to cover even the interest, which gets added to the unpaid balance. It can result in a borrower owing substantially more than the original amount borrowed. Abnormal Prepayment Penalties: A borrower who tries to refinance a home loan with one that offers better terms can be assessed an abusive prepayment penalty for paying off the original loan early. Up to 80 percent of subprime mortgages have abnormally high prepayment penalties. Mandatory Arbitration: The lender adds language to a loan contract making it illegal for a borrower to take future legal action for fraud or misrepresentation. The only option for an abused borrower is arbitration, which generally puts the borrower at a disadvantage. In recent years, predatory lending has also penetrated the home improvement financing market. Seniors and minority homeowners are typically the targets of this type of lending. In general, home improvement financing is more difficult to obtain than home purchase financing. Many homeowners have a debt -to- income ratio that is too high to qualify for home improvement loans in the prime market and become targets of predatory lending in the subprime market. Seniors have been swindled into installing unnecessary devices or making unnecessary improvements that are bundled with unreasonable financing terms. Predatory lending is a growing fair housing issue. Predatory lenders who discriminate get some scrutiny under the Fair Housing Act of 1968 which requires equal treatment in terms and conditions of housing opportunities and credit regardless of race, religion, color, national origin, family status, or disability. This applies to loan originators as well as the secondary market. The Equal Credit Opportunity Act of 1972 requires equal treatment in loan terms and availability of credit for all of the above categories, as well as age, sex, and marital status. Lenders that engage in predatory lending would violate these Acts if they target minority or elderly households to buy higher priced or unequal loan products, treat loans for protected classes differently than those of comparably credit - worthy White applicants, or have policies or practices that have a disproportionate effect on the protected classes. Data available to investigate the presence of predatory lending is extremely limited. At present, HMDA data are the most comprehensive data available for evaluating lending practices. However, as discussed before, HMDA data lack the financial details of the loan terms to conclude that any kind of predatory lending has actually occurred. There is an effort at the national level to push for increased reporting requirements in order to identify and curb predatory lending. The State of California has enacted additional measures designed to stem the tide of predatory lending practices. Senate Bill 537 provided a funding mechanism for local district attorneys' offices to establish special units to investigate and prosecute real estate fraud cases. The law enabled county governments to establish real estate fraud protection units. Furthermore, AB 489, a predatory lending reform bill, prevents a lender from basing the loan strictly on the borrower's home equity as opposed to the ability to repay the loan. The law also outlaws some balloon payments and prevents refinancing unless it results in an identifiable benefit to the borrower. Predatory lending and unsound investment practices, central to the current home foreclosure crisis, led to a credit crunch that spread well beyond the housing market and impacted the cost of credit for local CHAPTER 4: LENDING PRACTICES 128 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 496 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE government borrowing and local property tax revenues. In response, the U.S. House of Representatives passed legislation H.R.3915 in 2007, which prohibits certain predatory lending practices and makes it easier for consumers to renegotiate predatory mortgage loans. The U.S. Senate introduced similar legislation in late 2007 (S.2454). The Mortgage Reform and Anti- Predatory Lending Act (H.R.1728) was passed in the House in May 2009 and amends the Truth in Lending Act to specify duty of care standards for originators of residential mortgages. The law also prescribed minimum standards for residential mortgage loans and directs the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to establish a grants program to provide legal assistance to lower and moderate income homeowners and tenants and prohibits specified practices, including: • Certain prepayment penalties; • Single premium credit insurance; • Mandatory arbitration (except reverse mortgages); • Mortgage loan provisions that waive a statutory cause of action by the consumer; and • Mortgages with negative amortization.60 In addition to anti - predatory lending laws, the Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act was enacted in 2007 and allows for the exclusion of income realized as a result of modification of the terms of a mortgage or foreclosure on a taxpayer's principal residence. While subprime lending cannot in and of itself be described as "predatory," studies have shown a high incidence of predatory lending in the subprime market. 61 Unlike in the prime lending market, overly high approval rates in the subprime market is a potential cause for concern when the target clients are considered high risk. High approval rates may indicate aggressive lending practices. Table 55 summarizes the approval rates of top lenders in San Diego County. Of these top lenders, Flagstar Bank, FSB, Quicken Loans, Inc., and San Diego County Credit Union had notably high approval rates (over 80 percent). 60 In negative amortization, a borrower pays monthly mortgage payments that are lower than the required interest payments and include no principal payments. The shortage in monthly payments is added to the principle loan. Therefore, the longer the borrower holds that loan, the more they owe the lender despite making monthly payments. 61 California Reinvestment Committee. November 2001.

Purchased Loans Secondary mortgage marketing is the term used for pricing, buying, selling, securitizing and trading residential mortgages. The secondary market is an informal process of different financial institutions buying and selling home mortgages. The secondary market exists to provide a venue for lending institutions to raise the capital required to make additional loans. 1. History In the 1960s, as interest rates became unstable, housing starts declined and the nation faced capital shortages as many regions, including California, had more demand for mortgage credit than the lenders could fund. The need for new sources of capital promoted Congress to reorganize the Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA) into two entities: a private corporation (today's FNMA) and a government agency, the Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA). In 1970, Congress charted the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ( FHLMC) to purchase conventional loans. Both FHLMC and FNMA have the same goals: to increase the liquidity of the mortgage market and make homeownership more widely available to the average citizen. The two organizations work to standardize the documentation, underwriting and financing of home loans nationwide. They purchase loans from originators, hold them and issue their own debt to replenish the cash. They are, essentially, massive savings and loan organizations. These two organizations set the standards for the purchase of home loans by private lenders in the U.S. 2. Purchased Loans and Race During the peak of the housing market, the practice of selling mortgage loans by the originators (lenders that initially provide the loans to the borrowers) to other lenders and investors was prevalent. Predatory lending was rampant, with lenders utilizing liberal underwriting criteria or falsified documents to push loan sales to people who could not afford the loans. The originating lenders were able to minimize their financial risk by immediately selling the loans to other lenders or investors on the secondary market. Table 58 shows the various loan types purchased in San Diego County, as well as the race /ethnicity of the applicants, in 2013. White applicants represented the majority of all applicants and were subsequently the most likely to have their loans purchased. Among all race /ethnicities, government - backed loans were most likely to be purchased.

CHAPTER 4: LENDING PRACTICES 130 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 498 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE I. Review of Lending Patterns by Specific Lender Because the applicant profiles of some of the top lenders in San Diego County differ so significantly, this section looks at the underwriting outcomes of some of the major lenders in the County. 1. Wells Fargo Bank Wells Fargo was a top three lender in San Diego County in 2008 and 2013. The bank captured 11 percent of the market share in the County in 2013 and had an approval rate of 67 percent, which was slightly below the average approval rate for all lenders in the County of 70 percent. While Wells Fargo seems to be a popular option among San Diego County residents, Hispanic applicants appeared to have more difficulty obtaining loans from this bank. Hispanic applicants were less likely to be approved for loans (53 percent versus 67 percent overall) and more likely to be denied loans (25 percent versus 17 percent overall) at this institution. This could explain the popularity of smaller, lesser -known financial institutions among the County's Hispanic population (Table 56).62 2. Bank of America Bank of America was also a top three lender in the County in 2008 and 2013. This bank accounted for approximately six percent of the market share in 2013. The approval rate for this lender (78 percent) was higher than the average approval rate for all lenders in the County (70 percent). Approval rates for Black and Hispanic applicants (65 percent and 67 percent, respectively), however, were noticeably lower for this lender. Denial rates were also slightly higher for Black and Hispanic applicants (21 percent and 20 percent, respectively) than the overall denial rate for this lender of 16 percent. 3. JP Morgan Chase Bank JP Morgan Chase was a top five lender in San Diego County in both 2008 and 2013 and captured approximately six percent of the County's market share in 2013. The approval rate for this institution (74 percent) was slightly higher than the average for all lenders in the County (70 percent). Approval rates were the highest for White applicants (75 percent), while 67 percent of loan applications from Hispanics were approved. Applications from Hispanic applicants were also more likely to be denied (28 percent) versus 22 percent of all applicants. Fallout rates for this lender were lower than the average for all lenders and fairly equal among applicants of all races /ethnicities. 4. Flagstar Bank Flagstar Bank was a top lender in San Diego County in 2013, representing just over two percent of the County's market share. The bank had an approval rate that was significantly higher than the average for 62 Also, the City of Chula Vista has been in discussions with Wells Fargo Bank regarding underwriting criteria when a buyer is participating in the City's Downpayment Assistance Program (DAP). Currently Wells Fargo Bank uses standards that are higher than FHA loans for such applications. CHAPTER 4: LENDING PRACTICES 131 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 499 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE all lenders (87 percent versus 70 percent). This financial institution was also the third most prolific lender for Asian applicants in the County; however, approval, denial, and fallout rates were fairly consistent among applicants of various races /ethnicities. 5. Quicken Loans Quicken Loans was a top lender in 2013 and accounted for three percent of the County's market share. The approval rate for this lender was significantly higher than the average for all lenders in the County (85 percent versus 70 percent). Approval, denial, and fallout rates were generally consistent among applicants of various races / ethnicities. 6. San Diego County Credit Union San Diego County Credit Union was a top ten lender in San Diego County in both 2008 and 2013. The approval rate for this institution was markedly higher than the average for all lenders in the County (81 percent versus 70 percent). Approval rates were fairly consistent among applicants of all races / ethnicities; however, approval rates were the lowest (74 percent), and denial rates the highest (25 percent), among Hispanic applicants. 7. Citibank Citibank was a top ten lender in the County in 2013. The approval rate for this institution was significantly lower than the average for all lenders in the County (54 percent versus 70 percent). This lender also had a higher than average fallout rate than the average for all lenders (29 percent versus 14 percent). Approval rates were fairly consistent among applicants of all races /ethnicities. J. Foreclosures Foreclosure occurs when homeowners fall behind on one or more scheduled mortgage payments. The foreclosure process can be halted if the homeowner is able to bring their mortgage payments current. If payments cannot be resumed or the debt cannot be resolved, the lender can legally use the foreclosure process to repossess (take over) the home. When this happens, the homeowner must move out of the property. If the home is worth less than the total amount owed on the mortgage loan, a deficiency judgment could be pursued. If that happens, the homeowner would lose their home and also would owe the home lender an additional amount. Homes can be in various stages of foreclosure. Typically, the foreclosure process begins with the issuance of a Notice of Default (NOD). An NOD serves as an official notification to a borrower that he or she is behind in their mortgage payments, and if the payments are not paid up, the lender will seize the home. In California, lenders will not usually file an NOD until a borrower is at least 90 days behind in making payments. As of February 2015, 1,555 properties in the County were in this pre - foreclosure stage. CHAPTER 4: LENDING PRACTICES 132 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 500 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Once an NOD has been filed, borrowers are given a specific time period, typically three months, in which they can bring their mortgage payments current. If payments are not made current at the end of this specified time period, a Notice of Trustee Sale (NTS) will be prepared and published in a newspaper. An NTS is a formal notification of the sale of a foreclosure property. In California, the NTS is filed 90 days following an NOD when a property owner has failed to make a property loan current. Once an NTS has been filed, a property can then be sold at public auction. According to foreclosure records, 1,056 properties in the County were in the auction stage of the foreclosure process between 2013 and 2015. Many properties, however, are unable to be sold at public auction. In the event of an unsuccessful sale at auction, a property becomes classified as Real Estate Owned (REO) and ownership of it reverts back to the mortgage company or lender. In February 2015, the County had a total of 310 bank -owned properties. Table 59 presents current foreclosure data by jurisdiction. Between 2012 and February 2015, less than one percent of the County's housing stock was in one of the various stages of foreclosure. Homes in foreclosure comprised a similar proportion of the housing stock (about 0.2 percent) in all of San Diego County's incorporated cities. The unincorporated areas of San Diego County also have a similar proportion of foreclosed homes. Figure 20 illustrates foreclosure "hot spots" in San Diego County based on the number of foreclosures per 1,000 housing units. The hot spots are concentrated in Chula Vista, National City, and East San Diego areas. Figure 21 takes the hot spots analysis one step further by aggregating block groups with high rates of foreclosure to determine the probability of foreclosures based on proximity of other hot spots (GiZScore, probability of proximity analysis).

Fair housing laws are designed to encourage an inclusive living environment, active community participation, and an assessment of public policies. An assessment of public policies and practices can help determine potential impediments to fair housing opportunity. This section presents an overview of government regulations, policies, and practices enacted by each of the 19 jurisdictions in San Diego County that may impact fair housing choice. A. Policies and Programs Affecting Housing Development The General Plan of a jurisdiction establishes a vision for the community and provides long -range goals and policies to guide the development in achieving that vision. Two of the seven State - mandated General Plan elements — Housing and Land Use Elements — have direct impact on the local housing market in terms of the amount and range of housing choice. The zoning ordinance, which implements the General Plan, is another important document that influences the amount and type of housing available in a community — the availability of housing choice. In addition, 11 jurisdictions (Carlsbad, Chula Vista, Coronado, Del Mar, Encinitas, Imperial Beach, National City, Oceanside, Solana Beach, City of San Diego, and unincorporated areas of San Diego County) have Local Coastal Plans that also play a significant role in affordable housing in the Coastal Zone of each jurisdiction. 1. Housing Element Law and Compliance As one of the seven State - mandated elements of the local General Plan, the Housing Element is the only element with specific statutory requirements and is subject to review by the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) for compliance with State law. Enacted in 1969, Housing Element law requires that local governments adequately plan to meet the existing and projected housing needs of all economic segments of the community. The law acknowledges that for the private market to adequately address housing needs and demand, local governments must adopt land use plans and regulatory systems that provide opportunities for and do not unduly constrain housing development. Specifically, the Housing Element must: ■ Identify adequate sites which will be made available through appropriate zoning and development standards, with services and facilities needed to facilitate and encourage the development of a variety of types of housing for all income levels in order to meet the community's housing goals; CHAPTER 5: PUBLIC POLICIES 137 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 505 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE ■ Assist in the development of adequate housing to meet the needs of extremely low, very low, low, and moderate income households;« ■ Address and, where appropriate and legally possible, remove governmental constraints to the maintenance, improvement, and development of housing, including housing for all income levels and housing for persons with disabilities; ■ Conserve and improve the condition of the existing affordable housing stock; and ■ Promote housing opportunities for all persons regardless of race, religion, sex, marital status, ancestry, national origin, color, familial status, or disability.64 Compliance Status Table 60 summarizes the Housing Element compliance status of jurisdictions in San Diego County. A Housing Element found by HCD to be in compliance with State law is presumed to have adequately addressed its policy constraints. According to HCD, of the 19 participating jurisdictions (including the County), 17 Housing Elements were in compliance. The cities of Carlsbad and Encinitas have not yet adopted housing elements for the 2013 -2021 planning period. The City of Carlsbad is in the process of updating its Housing element in conjunction with a comprehensive update to its General Plan. A draft of the updated Housing Element was submitted to HCD for review in July 2013. In September 2013, HCD found that the draft Housing Element, with the inclusion of suggested revisions, meets the statutory requirements of state housing element law. The City anticipates adopting the Housing Element before the end of 2015. The City of Encinitas is in the process of updating its Housing Element, in conjunction with an extensive community outreach process and proposed rezoning of properties to accommodate additional housing. The City anticipates adopting the Housing Element by the end of 2016. 63 Under the State Housing Element law, the income categories are: extremely low income (30 percent AMI); very low income (50 percent AMI); low income (80 percent AMI); moderate income (120 percent AMI); and above moderate income (greater than 120 percent AMI). 64 State Housing Element law does not cover all classes protected under State and Federal fair housing laws. The Al report expands the protected classes beyond the Housing Element law to discuss Housing Element compliance with State and Federal fair housing laws.

SANDAG Regional Comprehensive Plan SANDAG adopted a Regional Comprehensive Plan (RCP) in July 2004. The RCP serves as the long- term planning framework for the San Diego region. It provides a broad context in which local and regional decisions can be made that move the region toward a sustainable future — a future with more choices and opportunities for all residents of the region. The RCP better integrates San Diego's local land use and transportation decisions, and focuses attention on where and how the region wants to grow. The RCP contains an incentive -based approach to encourage and channel growth into existing and future urban areas and smart growth communities. 3. Land Use Element The Land Use Element of a General Plan designates the general distribution, location, and extent of uses for land planned for housing, business, industry, open space, and public or community facilities. As it applies to housing, the Land Use Element establishes a range of residential land use categories, specifies densities (typically expressed as dwelling units per acre [du /ac]), and suggests the types of housing appropriate in a community. Residential development is implemented through the zoning districts and development standards specified in the jurisdiction's zoning ordinance. CHAPTER 5: PUBLIC POLICIES 139 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 507 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE 4. Residential Densities A number of factors, governmental and non - governmental, affect the supply and cost of housing in a local housing market. The governmental factor that most directly influences these market conditions is the allowable density range of residentially designated land. In general, higher densities allow developers to take advantage of economies of scale, reduce the per -unit cost of land and improvements, and reduce developments costs associated with new housing construction. Reasonable density standards ensure the opportunity for higher - density residential uses to be developed within a community, increasing the feasibility of producing affordable housing, and offer a variety of housing options that meet the needs of the community. Minimum required densities in multi - family zones ensure that land zoned for multi- family use, the supply of which is often limited, will be developed as efficiently as possible for multi- family uses. Table 61 presents a summary of allowable densities by land use type for jurisdictions in the San Diego region. While most jurisdictions have Land Use Elements that allow a range of single - family (0 -14 du /ac) and multi - family (6 -30+ du /ac) residential uses, Del Mar, Poway, and Solana Beach, due to the characteristics of existing residential neighborhoods, do not accommodate multi - family uses at a density greater than 20 du /ac without a density bonus or other incentive for affordable housing. However, as a part of its 2013 -2021 Housing Element, the City of Del Mar committed to redesignating two vacant properties in the North Commercial (NC) zone to allow residential development at a density of 20 units per acre or greater. In addition to the land use re- designation noted above, the City of Del Mar also plans to pursue amendments to the North Commercial (NC) and Professional Commercial (PC) zones expanding the list of uses allowed by right to include residential uses at a density of 20 units per acre for projects that include an affordable housing component. The City of Del Mar completed the rezoning of the vacant properties in 2014. To provide adequate sites for affordable housing development, an Affordable Housing Overlay Zone (AHOZ) was established in the Poway Zoning Code for Low Income (AH -L) and Moderate Income (AH -M) households. In 2012, placement of an AHOZ designation was completed on six publicly - owned sites. An AHOZ may be applied to property within any land use category, including non- residential categories, not including the Open Space or Rural Residential categories. The Poway Municipal Code (PMC) was also amended in 2012 to provide development incentives on AHOZ sites to encourage affordable housing that is consistent with State law. Development incentives include allowing densities up to 30 dwelling units per acre on properties that have the AHOZ applied on them. In 2013, the City of Carlsbad approved General Plan land use and zoning changes to increase residential density up to 30 units per acre in portions of the northwest section of the city. Coronado, Del Mar, Imperial Beach, La Mesa, Lemon Grove, National City, Oceanside, Poway, the City of San Diego, the County of San Diego, and Vista either have very low or no minimum density requirements for at least some of their residentially -zoned land. State law requires a local government to make a finding that a density reduction, rezoning, or downzoning is consistent with its Housing Element prior to requiring or permitting a reduction of density of a parcel below the density used in determining Housing Element compliance. The legislation also allowed courts to award attorneys' fees and costs if the court determines that the density reduction or downzoning was made illegally.

CHAPTER 5: PUBLIC POLICIES 143 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 511 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE B. Zoning Ordinance The zoning ordinance implements the General Plan by establishing zoning districts that correspond with General Plan land use designations. Development standards and permitted uses in each zoning district are specified to govern the density, type, and design of different land uses for the protection of public health, safety, and welfare (Government Code, Sections 65800 - 65863). The Fair Housing Act does not pre -empt local zoning laws. However, the Act applies to municipalities and other local government entities and prohibits them from making zoning or land use decisions or implementing land use policies that exclude or otherwise discriminate against protected persons, including individuals with disabilities. Another way that discrimination in zoning and land use may occur is when a seemingly neutral ordinance has a disparate impact, or causes disproportional harm, to a protected group. Land use policies such as density or design requirements that make residential development prohibitively expensive, limitations on multi - family housing, or a household occupancy standard may be considered discriminatory if it can be proven these policies have a disproportionate impact on minorities, families with children, or people with disabilities. Several aspects of the zoning ordinance that may affect a person's access to housing or limit the range of housing choices available are described below. As part of the Housing Element update, jurisdictions are required to evaluate their land use policies, zoning provisions, and development regulations and make proactive efforts to mitigate any constraints identified. However, the following review is based on the current zoning ordinances as of the writing of this Al. 1. Definition of Family A community's zoning ordinance can potentially restrict access to housing for households failing to qualify as a "family' by the definition specified in the zoning ordinance. For instance, a landlord may refuse to rent to a "nontraditional" family based on the zoning definition of a family.65 A landlord may also use the definition of a family as an excuse for refusing to rent to a household based on other hidden reasons, such as household size. Even if the code provides a broad definition, deciding what constitutes a "family' should be avoided by jurisdictions to prevent confusion or give the impression of restrictiveness. Zoning laws that are "facially neutral" (that is, they apply to all persons, not just those with disabilities) will violate the Fair Housing Act if they have a disparate impact or discriminatory effect on people with disabilities. One type of zoning law that often has been held to have a disparate impact on people with disabilities is a definition of the term "family" that allows any number of related persons to live together but limits the number of unrelated persons who may live together. Although applicable to groups of unrelated and non - disabled persons (e.g., college students, nuns, etc.), these laws may be deemed to have a disparate impact on persons with disabilities who often need to live in group settings for both programmatic and financial reasons.66 65 Most Zoning Ordinances that define families limit the definition to two or more individuals related by kinship, marriage, adoption, or other legally recognized custodial relationship. 66 Discriminatory Zoning and the Fair Housing Act. Disability Rights Network of Pennsylvania, 2007. CHAPTER 5: PUBLIC POLICIES 144 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 512 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE California court cases' have ruled that a definition of "family" that: 1) limits the number of persons in a family; 2) specifies how members of the family are related (i.e. by blood, marriage or adoption, etc.), or (3) defines a group of not more than a certain number of unrelated persons as a single housekeeping unit is invalid. Court rulings stated that defining a family does not serve any legitimate or useful objective or purpose recognized under the zoning and land planning powers of the jurisdiction, and therefore violates rights of privacy under the California Constitution. A zoning ordinance also cannot regulate residency by discriminating between biologically related and unrelated persons. Furthermore, a zoning provision cannot regulate or enforce the number of persons constituting a family. The cities of Carlsbad (2011), Del Mar (2014), National City (2011) and San Marcos (2012) recently amended or removed the definition of "family" from their zoning ordinances. Currently, only zoning ordinances for the cities of Oceanside and Solana Beach include definitions of "family" that constitute a potential impediment to fair housing choice. These cities have definitions of a family that exclude individuals. Such a definition can be considered an impediment because it may give landlords the opportunity to deny renting single- family or multi - family dwelling units to single persons. 2. Density Bonus Ordinance California Government Code Section 65915 provides that a local government shall grant a density bonus of at least 20 percent (five percent for condominiums) and an additional incentive, or financially equivalent incentive(s), to the developer of a housing development agreeing to provide at least: • Ten percent of the units for lower income households-, • Five percent of the units for very low income households; • Ten percent of the condominium units for moderate income households; • A senior housing development; or • Qualified donations of land, condominium conversions, and child care facilities. The density bonus law also applies to senior housing projects and projects which include a child care facility. In addition to the density bonus stated above, the statute includes a sliding scale that requires: An additional 2.5 percent density bonus for each additional increase of one percent Very Low income units above the initial five percent threshold; ■ A density increase of 1.5 percent for each additional one percent increase in Low income units above the initial 10 percent threshold; and ■ A one percent density increase for each one percent increase in Moderate income units above the initial 10 percent threshold. These bonuses reach a maximum density bonus of 35 percent when a project provides either 11 percent very low income units, 20 percent low income units, or 40 percent moderate income units. In addition to a density bonus, developers may also be eligible for one of the following concessions or incentives: ■ Reductions in site development standards and modifications of zoning and architectural design requirements, including reduced setbacks and parking standards; 67 City of Santa Barbara v. Adamson (1980), City of Chula Vista v. Pagard (1981), among others. CHAPTER 5: PUBLIC POLICIES 145 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 513 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Mixed used zoning that will reduce the cost of the housing, if the non - residential uses are compatible with the housing development and other development in the area; and ■ Other regulatory incentives or concessions that result in "identifiable, financially sufficient, and actual cost reductions." Jurisdictions also may not enforce any development standard that would preclude the construction of a project with the density bonus and the incentives or concessions to which the developer is entitled. To ensure compliance with the State density bonus law, jurisdictions must reevaluate their development standards in relation to the maximum achievable densities for multi - family housing. The cities of Carlsbad (2014), Chula Vista (2012), Del Mar (2013), National City (2009), Oceanside (2012), and San Marcos (2012) have recently updated their density bonus ordinances to comply with State law. Most of the cities in San Diego County have density bonus ordinances that comply with the requirements of California Government Code Section 65915 that was in effect as of December 2014 (Table 62). Only the cities of Encinitas, Escondido, Imperial Beach, Lemon Grove, and Poway did not specify density bonus provisions in accordance with the 2014 requirements. The recently adopted AB 2222, however, added new requirements to the State's density bonus provisions, which took effect in January 2015. All jurisdictions in San Diego County will be required to update their density bonus ordinances again to comply with these additional requirements. The City of Carlsbad is currently drafting an updated Density Bonus Ordinance for consistency with the recently adopted changes to Government Code Section 65915 (AB 2222). Carlsbad expects to have these changes adopted before the end of 2015. The City of Chula Vista is aware of the updates required by AB 2222 and plans to amend its density bonus provisions by 2016. This amendment will include: an update to the affordability covenants extending the required affordability period to 55 years for a rental project, an update of the shared equity provisions of a for sale housing project, and an update to the definition of which types of projects are eligible for a density bonus. The City of Encinitas anticipates adopting updated density bonus provisions by the end of 2016.

In addition to State mandated density bonus concessions, the City of El Cajon has adopted provisions in its Zoning Ordinance that provide for reduced parking requirements and increased density up to 50 dwelling units per net acre (in the R3 and R4 zones) for housing for seniors and persons with disabilities. The City of Carlsbad's inclusionary housing ordinance has provisions to help off -set the cost of affordable housing production, including increased density (beyond state law), development standards modifications, and financial assistance. 3. Parking Requirements Communities that require an especially high number of parking spaces per dwelling unit can negatively impact the feasibility of producing affordable housing by reducing the achievable number of dwelling units per acre, increasing development costs, and thus restricting the range of housing types constructed in a community. Typically, the concern for high parking requirements is limited to multi - family, affordable, or senior housing. The basic parking standards for jurisdictions in San Diego County are presented in Table 63. Many jurisdictions offer reductions in parking requirements in conjunction with density bonuses for affordable and senior housing. CHAPTER 5: PUBLIC POLICIES 147 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 515 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Most jurisdictions in the County have comparable parking requirements. However, Coronado, Imperial Beach, La Mesa, Lemon Grove, and Vista have parking standards for multi - family uses that make little or no distinction between parking required for smaller units (one or two bedrooms) and larger units (three or more bedrooms). Because smaller multi - family units are often the most suitable type of housing for seniors and persons with disabilities, requiring the same number parking spaces as larger multi - family units can be a constraint on the construction of units intended to serve these populations. Several of these cities, however, do offer reduced parking standards for senior housing. In Coronado, all new dwelling units generally require two parking spaces. However, the R -5 Zone requires only 1.5 spaces per unit, affordable housing requires only 1.5 spaces per unit, and senior housing requires only one space per unit. Lemon Grove requires two parking spaces (one of which must be covered) per dwelling unit, with the exception of senior complexes, which require only one parking space per unit, and studio apartments, which require only 1.5 spaces. Relief from these parking requirements can also be found in the parking standards for density bonus projects. A 100 percent senior housing project (that usually also serves disabled persons) is eligible to utilize the State density bonus parking requirements, which offer a reduced number of parking spaces for smaller units. Jurisdictions will also sometimes establish minimum standards and requirements for handicapped parking. Most of the jurisdictions in the County specify that handicapped parking must comply with the requirements and standards outlined in Title 24 of the Building Code.

CHAPTER 5: PUBLIC POLICIES 149 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 517 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE C. Variety of Housing Opportunity To ensure fair housing choice in a community, a zoning ordinance should provide for a range of housing types, including single- family, multi - family, second dwelling units, mobile homes, licensed community care facilities, employee housing for seasonable or migrant workers as necessary, assisted living facilities, emergency shelters, supportive housing, transitional housing, and single room occupancy (SRO) units. Table 64 provides a summary of each jurisdiction's zoning ordinance as it relates to ensuring a variety of housing opportunities. 1. Single- and Multi- Family Uses Single- and multi - family housing types include detached and attached single- family homes, duplexes or half - plexes, townhomes, condominiums, and rental apartments. Zoning ordinances should specify the zones in which each of these uses would be permitted by right. All of the jurisdictions in San Diego County accommodate the range of residential uses described above without a use permit. In June 2014, Del Mar removed the Conditional Use Permit requirement for properties in the RM -East, RM -West, RM- Central and RM -South zones to develop at the maximum allowable density of 17.6 units per acre. Zoning ordinances should also avoid "pyramid or cumulative zoning" (e.g. permitting lower - density single - family uses in zones intended for higher density multi - family uses). Pyramid or cumulative zoning schemes could limit the amount of lower -cost multi - family residential uses in a community and be a potential impediment to fair housing choice. Most jurisdictions in the San Diego region have some form of pyramid zoning and permitting single - family residential uses in multi - family zones is the most prevalent example. Allowing or requiring a lower density use in a zone that can accommodate higher density uses is regulated by State law (SB 2292, also known as the Dutra Bill). A local government is required to make a finding that an action that results in a density reduction, rezoning, or downzoning is consistent with its Housing Element, particularly in relation to the jurisdiction's ability to accommodate its share of regional housing needs. 2. Second Dwelling Units Second dwelling units are attached or detached dwelling units that provide complete independent living facilities for one or more persons, including permanent provisions for living, sleeping, cooking and sanitation. Second units may be an alternative source of affordable housing for lower income households and seniors. These units typically rent for less than apartments of comparable size. California law requires local jurisdictions to adopt ordinances that establish the conditions under which second units are permitted (Government Code, Section 65852.2). A jurisdiction cannot adopt an ordinance that totally precludes the development of second units unless the ordinance contains findings acknowledging that allowing second units may limit housing opportunities of the region and result in adverse impacts on public health, safety, and welfare. An amendment to the State's second unit law in 2003 requires local governments to use a ministerial, rather than discretionary, process for approving second units (i.e. second units otherwise compliant with local zoning standards can be approved without a public hearing) and allows jurisdictions to count second units towards meeting their regional housing needs goals. A ministerial process is intended to reduce permit processing time frames and development costs because proposed second dwelling units that are in compliance with local zoning standards can be CHAPTER 5: PUBLIC POLICIES 150 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 518 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE approved without a public hearing. Most jurisdictions in the County currently permit second dwelling units via a variety of review processes such as a zoning clearance or an administrative permit. Imperial Beach is the only jurisdiction with adopted findings allowing it to preclude second units. Second units are allowed by -right within the City's R -3000, R -2000, and R -1500 residential zones. However, the City Council determined that allowing second units in R1 -6,000 and R1 -3,800 zones is not in the best interest of public health, safety, and welfare and adopted findings to preclude second units in those zones. Poway considers a resolution annually to prohibit these units in areas of the City deemed to have inadequate infrastructure. The resolution designates areas of Poway without adequate water, sewer, or other municipal services for second units or in which second units would have a significant adverse impact upon traffic flow. However, as a result of the City's update of its Transportation Element in 2010, second dwelling units are now permitted in larger areas of the City. In 2011, National City processed revisions to its Land Use Code that amended the City's second unit provisions to be consistent with state law. The provisions allow second units by right in all residential and mixed -use zones with no minimum lot area or discretionary review requirements. Inconsistent provisions regarding second units in the Vista Zoning Ordinance were removed in 2012. Coronado provides for accessory second -story carriage house structures on single- family lots but the lots must have both street and alley access, kitchens are prohibited, and the units are only for use by the resident of the main building or such resident's guests (i.e., cannot be rented or leased independent of main building). 3. Mobile Home Parks Provisions for mobile home parks vary among the San Diego County jurisdictions. Some jurisdictions have designated mobile home park zones specifically to provide for this type of housing (Carlsbad, Chula Vista, La Mesa, Santee, Solana Beach and Vista). The City of Encinitas provides for mobile home parks in its Mobile Home Park zone, and in higher density zones upon issuance of a Conditional Use Permit, while the City of San Diego has a mobile home park overlay zone to preserve existing sites. Other jurisdictions allow mobile home parks in some residential zones with a Conditional Use Permit (Escondido, National City, Poway, San Diego County and San Marcos). El Cajon and Vista have Mobile Home Park Overlay Zones that permit new mobile home parks and the expansion of current parks with a CUP or Site Development Plan. Coronado, Del Mar, and Lemon Grove have no provisions for mobile home parks in their Zoning Ordinances.

CHAPTER 5: PUBLIC POLICIES 154 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 522 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE 4. Manufactured Housing State law requires local governments to permit manufactured or mobile homes meeting federal safety and construction standards on a permanent foundation in all single - family residential zoning districts (Section 65852.3 of the California Government Code). Most jurisdictions in San Diego County comply with this requirement. The cities of Coronado (2010), Del Mar (2014), El Cajon (2015), San Marcos (2012) and Vista (2012) recently amended their zoning ordinances to specifically accommodate manufactured housing. As of February 2015, only the City of Encinitas does not explicitly accommodate manufactured or mobile homes in single - family residential zoning districts consistent with State law. While, Encinitas does not explicitly provide for manufactured housing within its Municipal Code, the City does consider manufactured housing as a form of one - family dwelling. Encinitas is in the process of updating its Zoning Ordinance with explicit provisions for manufactured housing and anticipates completing this update by 2017. Mobile homes offer an affordable housing option to many low- and moderate - income households. To further preserve the affordability of mobile homes, several cities in San Diego County, including Chula Vista and Santee, have adopted rent control policies and ordinances for mobile homes. 5. Licensed Residential Care Facilities The Lanterman Developmental Disabilities Services Act (Sections 5115 and 5116) of the California Welfare and Institutions Code declares that mentally and physically disabled persons are entitled to live in normal residential surroundings. The use of property for the care of six or fewer persons with mental disorders or disabilities is required by law. A State - authorized, certified or authorized family care home, foster home, or group home serving six or fewer persons with disabilities or dependent and neglected children on a 24- hour -a -day basis is considered a residential use to be permitted in all residential zones. No local agency can impose stricter zoning or building and safety standards on these homes (commonly referred to as "group" homes) of six or fewer persons with disabilities than are required of the other permitted residential uses in the zone. Most jurisdictions in San Diego County comply with the Lanterman Act. The cities of Coronado (2014) and San Marcos (2012) recently amended their zoning ordinances to include provisions for residential care facilities. The City of Poway amended its Zoning Ordinance in 2012 to include residential care facilities in its definition of "family "; thereby permitting this housing type in all residential zones, in accordance with the provisions of State law. As of February 2015, only Chula Vista and Imperial Beach have no provisions in their zoning ordinances for residential care facilities serving six or fewer clients. However, as shown in Table 48(Licensed Residential Care Facilities by Jurisdiction), Chula Vista (135 facilities) and Imperial Beach (12 facilities) are home to a number of existing licensed community care facilities. Though their zoning ordinances make no specific references to residential care facilities, Chula Vista and Imperial Beach allow for residential care facilities serving six or fewer persons by right in all residential zones. The City of Chula Vista is working on a draft Zoning Ordinance to be completed by 2016. 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet CHAPTER 5: PUBLIC POLICIES 155 Page 523 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Most San Diego jurisdictions also conditionally permit larger residential care facilities serving seven or more residents in residential zones. National City amended the discretionary review process in its Land Use Code for residential care facilities serving more than six persons in 2011 by changing the requirement from a conditional use permit (CUP) to a minor CUP. Coronado amended its Zoning Ordinance in 2014 to conditionally permit large residential care facilities in its R -4 zone. Imperial Beach considers large residential care facilities as boarding houses and allows this housing type in the C /MU -1 zones, with approval of a CUP. The City of San Marcos amended its Zoning Ordinance in 2012 to allow for large residential care facilities in the A -1, A -2, A -3, MHP, R -3 -6, R -3 -10, SR, MU -1 and MU -2 zones, with the approval of a Director's Permit (DP). The City of Poway allows residential care facilities serving between seven and 15 residents with a CUP. As of February 2015, only the Zoning Ordinance for the City of Chula Vista does not provide for large residential care facilities. The City is scheduled to present an amendment to the Zoning Ordinance addressing this issue to the City Council by the end of 2016. Despite not having explicit provisions for large residential care facilities in the Zoning Ordinance, the City of Chula Vista has recently approved the following facilities: St. Paul's Plaza at Otay Ranch (2015) -The four story St. Paul's Plaza, is scheduled to open June 2015 will house 156 rooms in Phase I. Phase II will add another 63 apartments to the community. A project of St. Paul's Senior Homes & Services, which has been serving seniors in San Diego for more than 50 years. The community will bring 60 unique and innovative Memory Care apartments to Chula Vista, and 94 assisted and independent living accommodations. Westmount at San Miguel Ranch (2014)- Is an independent and assisted living facility as well and offers memory care options, with amenities designed to promote optimum well-being and a positive active life style. Living options include independent living, assisted living, Alzheimer's and dementia care, and respite care. ■ ActiveCare at Rolling Hills Ranch (2013)- ActivCare at Rolling Hills Ranch in east Chula Vista is a specialized senior living community that serves the changing needs of those with memory loss (dementia, Alzheimer's) by offering a spectrum of living options. A unique feature of the community is a dedicated neighborhood for those in the initial stages of memory loss or Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). Furthermore, the Lanterman Act covers only licensed residential care facilities. The California Housing Element law also addresses the provision of transitional and supportive housing, which includes non - licensed housing facilities for persons with disabilities. This topic is discussed later. 6. Emergency Shelters An emergency shelter is a facility that provides temporary shelter and feeding of indigents or disaster victims, operated by a public or non - profit agency. State law requires jurisdictions to identify adequate sites for housing which will be made available through appropriate zoning and development standards to facilitate and encourage the development of a variety of housing types for all income levels, including emergency shelters and transitional housing (Section 65583(c)(1) of the Government Code). Recent changes in State law (SB 2) require that local jurisdictions make provisions in the zoning code to permit emergency shelters by right in at least one zoning district where adequate capacity is available to CHAPTER 5: PUBLIC POLICIES 156 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 524 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE accommodate at least one year -round shelter. Local jurisdictions may, however, establish standards to regulate the development of emergency shelters. At the writing of this report, 11 of the 19 jurisdictions in the County allow emergency shelters by right consistent with State law. The following jurisdictions: Carlsbad (2012), Coronado (2014), Del Mar (2013), El Cajon (2015), Escondido (2013), Imperial Beach (2012), National City (2011), Oceanside (2013), San Diego County (2010), San Marcos (2012), Solana Beach (2014) and Vista (2012) recently amended their zoning ordinances to permit emergency shelters, consistent with the provisions of SB 2. However, as of February 2015, the cities of Chula Vista, Encinitas, La Mesa, Lemon Grove, Poway, and San Diego (City) do not have adequate provisions for emergency shelters in their zoning ordinances. As required by Housing Element law, cities are required to update their zoning ordinances to include provisions for emergency shelters. The City of Chula Vista is scheduled to present a Zoning Ordinance amendment related to emergency shelters to the City Council by the end of 2015. The City of Encinitas anticipates amending its Zoning Ordinance by 2017. The City of San Diego is currently in the process of amending its Land Development Code. It is anticipated the amendment regarding emergency shelters will be completed during the 2016 calendar year. 7. Transitional and Supportive Housing State law (AB 2634 and SB 2) requires local jurisdictions to address the provisions for transitional and supportive housing. Under Housing Element law, transitional housing means buildings configured as rental housing developments, but operated under program requirements that require the termination of assistance and recirculation of the assisted unit to another eligible program recipient at a predetermined future point in time that shall be no less than six months from the beginning of the assistance (California Government Code Section 65582(h)). Supportive housing means housing with no limit on length of stay, that is occupied by the target population and is linked to an onsite or offsite service that assists the supportive housing resident in retaining the housing, improving his or her health status, and maximizing his or her ability to live and, when possible, work in the community. Target population means persons with low incomes who have one or more disabilities, including mental illness, HIV /AIDS, substance abuse, or other chronic health condition, or individuals eligible for services provided pursuant to the Lanterman Developmental Disabilities Services Act (Division 4.5 (commencing with Section 4500) of the Welfare and Institutions Code) and may include, among other populations, adults, emancipated minors, families with children, elderly persons, young adults aging out of the foster care system, individuals exiting from institutional settings, veterans, and homeless people (California Government Code Sections 65582(f) and (g)). Accordingly, State law establishes transitional and supportive housing as a residential use and therefore local governments cannot treat it differently from other similar types of residential uses (e.g., requiring a use permit when other residential uses of similar function do not require a use permit). The cities of Carlsbad (2014), Coronado (2014), Del Mar (2014), El Cajon (2015), National City (2011), Oceanside (2013), San Marcos (2012), Santee (2013), and Solana Beach (2014) have already amended their zoning ordinances to include these provisions for transitional and supportive housing. CHAPTER 5: PUBLIC POLICIES 157 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 525 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE The County of San Diego amended the Zoning Ordinance in 2010 to distinguish between group care facilities for six or fewer people (family care home) and group care facilities for seven or more (group care). For facilities serving six or fewer persons, a transitional or supportive housing project that requires state community care licensing would be considered a family care home by the County. For facilities serving seven or more persons, a transitional or supportive housing project that requires state community care licensing would be considered a group care facility, which is permitted in RC, C31, C34, C35, C37, and C46 zones and with a Major Use Permit in A70, A72, and all other residential zones. The City of Vista permits transitional housing facilities for battered women and children (serving six or fewer clients) in all residential zones. However, all other transitional and supportive housing facilities are permitted only in the City's RM zone. The County's and Vista's treatment of transitional and supportive housing does not fully comply with all of the requirements of SB 2 and their zoning ordinances will need to be further amended in order to maintain consistency with State law. As of February 2015, the jurisdictions of Chula Vista, Encinitas, Escondido, Imperial Beach, La Mesa, Lemon Grove, Poway, San Diego (City), San Diego (County), and Vista do not have zoning ordinances that permit transitional and supportive housing consistent with the requirements of SB 2. The City of Chula Vista anticipates completing this update by 2016. The City of Encinitas anticipates completing this update by 2017. The City of San Diego is currently in the process of amending its Land Development Code to address supportive housing. The draft Amendments are tentatively scheduled for an initial introduction to City Council Committee in May 2015. The Amendment process is anticipated to reach conclusion during the 2016 calendar year. 8. Single -Room Occupancy (SRO) AB 2634 also mandates that local jurisdictions address the provision of housing options for extremely low- income households, including Single Room Occupancy units (SRO). SRO units are one room units intended for occupancy by a single individual. It is distinct from a studio or efficiency unit, in that a studio is a one -room unit that must contain a kitchen and bathroom. Although SRO units are not required to have a kitchen or bathroom, many SROs have one or the other. The jurisdictions of Carlsbad, Coronado, El Cajon, Escondido, National City, San Diego (City), San Diego (County), San Marcos, Solana Beach, and Vista are in compliance with AB 2634. However, as of February 2015, the cities of Chula Vista, Del Mar, Encinitas, Imperial Beach, La Mesa, Lemon Grove, Oceanside, and Poway do not have adequate SRO provisions in their zoning ordinances. The City of Encinitas anticipates completing this amendment by 2017. 9. Farmworker Housing The California Employee Housing Act requires that housing for six or fewer employees be treated as a regular residential use. The Employee Housing Act further defines housing for agricultural workers consisting of 36 beds or 12 units be treated as an agricultural use and permitted where agricultural uses are permitted. Compliance with these requirements among participating jurisdictions is summarized in Table 65. Most jurisdictions in San Diego have no provisions for farmworker or employee housing in their zoning ordinances. CHAPTER 5: PUBLIC POLICIES 158 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 526 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Escondido permits living quarters, for a caretaker or for persons deriving the major portion of their income from employment on the premises in conjunction with authorized agricultural use, in its agricultural zones. Dwellings serving six or fewer employees are considered single - family dwellings, while those serving more than six employees (and also operating not - for - profit) are also permitted by right. These provisions do not meet the requirements of the State Employee Housing Act (Section 17000 of the Health and Safety Code) and will need to be amended. The City of San Diego permits employee housing in its agricultural zones with limitations. The City of San Diego's farmworker housing policies fall under the employment housing regulations for agricultural zones (i.e., 12 persons and under are permitted by right (limited use); over 12 persons require a CUP or Neighborhood Use Permit). The County of San Diego amended its Zoning Ordinance in 2009 to define farm employee housing as an accessory use to active Commercial Agriculture; however, the County Zoning Ordinance does not have provisions for employee housing. San Marcos requires a Development Permit for farmworker housing in its agricultural zones. However, other housing types, including single - family housing units, are permitted in these zones by- right. The City of Chula Vista anticipates amending its Zoning Ordinance to address farmworker and employee housing by 2016. Meanwhile, the City has several affordable housing options for farmworkers, including The Brisa del Mar affordable housing project located in southwest Chula Vista which has units set aside for farmworkers.

Building Codes and Occupancy Standards 1. Building Codes Building codes, such as the California Building Standards Code 6" and the Uniform Housing Code are necessary to protect public health, safety, and welfare. However, local codes that require substantial improvements to a building might not be warranted and deter housing construction and /or neighborhood improvement. 68 California Building Standards Code, adopted by the a Building Standards Commission, is actually a set of uniform building, electrical, mechanical, and other codes adopted by professional associations such as the International Conference of Building Officials, and amended to include California- specific requirements. CHAPTER 5: PUBLIC POLICIES 160 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 528 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE The California Building Standards Code is published every three years by order of the California legislature. The Code applies to all jurisdictions in the State of California unless otherwise annotated. Adoption of the triennial compilation of Codes is not only a legal mandate, it also ensures the highest available level of safety for citizens and that all construction and maintenance of structures meets the highest standards of quality. Most jurisdictions in the San Diego region have adopted the 2013 California Building Standards Code, with the exception of Coronado, which has adopted the 2010 California Building Code. Other codes commonly adopted by reference within the region include the California Mechanical Code, California Plumbing Code, California or National Electric Code, Uniform Housing Code, and California Fire Code. Less common are the California Uniform Code for the Abatement of Dangerous Buildings, the Urban - Wildland Interface Code, and the Uniform Code for Building Conservation. Most jurisdictions have amended portions of these codes to reflect non - arbitrary local conditions including geographical and topographic conditions unique to each locality. Although minor amendments have been incorporated to address local conditions, no additional regulations have been imposed by the city or county that would unnecessarily add to housing costs. 2. Occupancy Standards Disputes over occupancy standards are typical tenant /landlord and fair housing issues. Families with children and large households may face discrimination in the housing market, particularly in the rental housing market, because landlords are reluctant or flatly refuse to rent to such households. Establishing a strict occupancy standard, either by the local jurisdictions or by landlords on the rental agreements, may be a violation of fair housing practices. "2 +1" Rule Most State and federal housing programs use the "2 +1" rule as an acceptable occupancy standard. The appropriate number of persons per housing unit is estimated at two persons per bedroom plus an additional person. For example, a two- bedroom unit could have five In general, no state or federal regulations govern occupancy standards. The State Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH) uses the "two- plus -one" rule in considering the number of persons per housing unit — two persons per bedroom plus an additional person. Using this rule, a landlord cannot restrict occupancy to fewer than three persons for a one - bedroom unit or five persons for a two - bedroom unit, etc. While DFEH also uses other factors, such as the age of the occupants and size of rooms, to consider the appropriate standard, the two- plus -one rule is generally followed. Other guidelines are also used as occupancy standards. The Uniform Housing Code (Section 503.2) requires that a dwelling unit have at least one room which is not less than 120 square feet in area. Other habitable rooms, except kitchens, are required to have a floor area of not less than 70 square feet. The Housing Code further states that where two persons occupy a room used for sleeping purposes, the required floor area should be increased at a rate of 50 square feet for each occupant in excess of two. There is nothing in the Housing Code that prevents people from sleeping in the living or dining rooms, as long as these rooms have a window or door meeting all the provisions of the California Building Code for emergency egress. The Fire Code allows one person per 150 square feet of "habitable" space. These standards are typically more liberal than the "two- plus -one" rule. For example, three people could sleep in a one - bedroom apartment where the bedroom is at least 120 square feet; and where the living /dining area is at least 170 square feet, an additional three people could sleep there. Therefore, a 290- square foot one - bedroom apartment can accommodate up to six persons or a two- bedroom 410 - square foot apartment can sleep up to nine persons. CHAPTER 5: PUBLIC POLICIES 161 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 529 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE A review of occupancy standards for jurisdictions within the San Diego region revealed that none of the jurisdictions overtly limit the number of people who can occupy a housing unit. As previously discussed, court rulings stated a Zoning Ordinance cannot regulate residency by discrimination between biologically- related and unrelated persons. None of the jurisdictions in the County have a definition of "family" in their Zoning Ordinance with references to how members of a family are related or the maximum number of members in the household. However, Oceanside and Solana Beach have definitions of a "family" that exclude individuals. Such a definition can be considered an impediment because it may give landlords the opportunity to deny renting single- family or multi - family dwelling units to single persons. E. Affordable Housing Development In general, many minority and special needs households are disproportionately affected by a lack of adequate and affordable housing in a region. While affordability issues are not directly fair housing issues, expanding access to housing choices for these groups cannot ignore the affordability factor. Insofar as rent - restricted or non - restricted low -cost housing is concentrated in certain geographic locations, access to housing by lower - income and minority groups in other areas is limited and can therefore be an indirect impediment to fair housing choice. Furthermore, various permit processing and development impact fees charged by local government results in increased housing costs and can be a barrier to the development of affordable housing. Other policies and programs, such as inclusionary housing and growth management programs, can either facilitate or inhibit the production of affordable housing. These issues are examined in the subsections below. 1. Siting of Affordable Housing The San Diego region has a large inventory of rent - restricted multi - family housing units. The distribution of these units, however, is highly uneven throughout the region, with dense clusters of assisted housing located in central San Diego, National City, Chula Vista and Escondido (see Figure 12 on page 93). Almost three - quarters (73 percent) of the region's rent - restricted multi - family housing stock is concentrated in these four cities. Jurisdictions with the highest concentration of rent - restricted multi - family housing units (as measured by the ratio of rent - restricted units to total housing units) include National City (15.2 percent), San Marcos (5.7 percent) and Escondido (4.1 percent) (see Table 66). Jurisdictions with the lowest concentration of rent restricted multi - family units (as measured by the number of restricted units per 500 housing units) are Del Mar (0.0), Solana Beach (0.0), Encinitas (2.8), and Coronado (3.5).

Development Fees Housing construction imposes certain short- and long -term costs upon local government, such as the cost of providing planning services and inspections. As a result, San Diego County jurisdictions rely upon various planning and development fees to recoup costs and ensure that essential services and infrastructure are available when needed. Planning fees for the County of San Diego and its jurisdictions are summarized in Table 67. As shown, fees vary widely based on the needs of each jurisdiction.

Notes: 1. Indicates initial deposit amount. Actual fee is full cost recovery. 3. Development Impact Fees Jurisdictions also charge a variety of impact fees to offset the cost of providing the infrastructure and public facilities required to serve new development. Until 1978, property taxes were the primary revenue source for financing the construction of infrastructure and improvements required to support new residential development. The passage of Proposition 13 in 1978 has limited a local jurisdiction's ability to raise property taxes and significantly lowered the ad valorem tax rate, increasing reliance on other funding sources to provide infrastructure, public improvements, and public services. An alternative funding source widely used among local governments in California is the development impact fee, which is collected for a variety of improvements including water and sewer facilities, parks, and transportation improvements. CHAPTER 5: PUBLIC POLICIES 164 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 532 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE To enact an impact fee, State law requires that the local jurisdiction demonstrate the "nexus" between the type of development in question and the impact being mitigated by the proposed fee. Also, the amount of the fee must be roughly proportional to the impact caused by the development. Nevertheless, development impact fees today have become a significant cost factor in housing development. Jurisdictions in San Diego County have imposed a variety of impact fees for new development (Table 68). Table 68: Development Impact Fees by Jurisdiction Source: Participating jurisdictions, 2015. The contribution of fees to home prices varies temporally as well as spatially. When times are good, housing production tends to lag behind demand, especially in coastal markets. Housing prices during such periods are chiefly affected by the balance between supply and demand and are much less affected by construction and development costs. When economic times are bad and demand is weak, housing prices are more sharply affected by the prices of construction inputs, including fees. The strength of the economy and housing market also determines the degree of fee shifting and who ultimately pays fees. During strong economic times, it is the final homebuyer or renter who ends up paying housing development fees; the builder or developer is mostly an intermediary. During recessionary periods, the burden of paying fees may be shifted backwards to the landowner.

CHAPTER 5: PUBLIC POLICIES 165 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 533 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE 4. Linkage Fees A linkage fee is a development impact fee applied to non - residential development. This fee can be used by local governments to support affordable housing construction and it is applied in recognition of the housing needs of lower- income workers who often are employed by end users of new development. Linkage fees can facilitate de- concentration of affordable housing development and reduce the negative social and environmental effects of jobs - housing imbalances in a region if the use of this funding is combined with a policy that requires the scattering of affordable units throughout a community and /or require concurrent construction of market -rate and affordable units in new development. Currently, the City of San Diego is the only jurisdiction that charges a linkage fee to non - residential development to offset the cumulative effects of non - residential development on affordable housing and transportation. The underlying purpose of the City of San Diego's linkage fee is to ensure that new office, retail, research and development, manufacturing, warehouse, and hotel development pay a fair share of the subsidies necessary to house the low- income employees related to such development. The fees are placed in the San Diego Housing Trust Fund and can be utilized to assist the construction of affordable housing units located anywhere within the boundaries of the City of San Diego. The Municipal Code establishes a mechanism to ensure a geographic nexus between the location of new jobs and the expenditure of revenue for housing projects." F. Other Land Use Policies, Programs, and Controls Land use policies, programs, and controls can impede or facilitate housing development and can have implications for fair housing choice in a community. Inclusionary housing policies and redevelopment project areas can facilitate new affordable housing projects, while growth management programs can impede new affordable housing development. Jurisdictions that have not sought Article 34 authority may also be prevented from directly engaging in affordable housing development. Table 69 identifies jurisdictions that are affected by or have adopted land use policies, programs, and controls that may have a negative impact on housing development and fair housing choice. 69 For more information, see Chapter 9, Article 8, Division 6 of the San Diego Municipal Code.

Article 34 Article 34 of the State Constitution requires a majority vote of the electorate to approve the development, construction, or acquisition by a public body of any "low rent housing project" within that jurisdiction. In other words, for any projects to be built and /or operated by a public agency where at least 50 percent of the occupants are low- income and rents are restricted to affordable levels, the jurisdiction must seek voter approval known as "Article 34 authority' to authorize that number of units. Several jurisdictions within the San Diego region have obtained Article 34 authority to be directly involved in the development, construction, or acquisition of low -rent housing. Carlsbad voters approved an Article 34 measure to allow no more than 250 units of senior low income housing in November 1980; this authority has only been exercised twice since voter approval. The City of Chula Vista currently has 24 remaining Article 34 units allotted and on November 7, 2006 voters approved authority for an additional 1,600 units. No projects requiring Article 34 authority have been proposed in Del Mar, therefore, residents have not been asked to vote on a referendum to allow the City to develop, construct, or acquire affordable housing. The City of El Cajon has voter approval for senior projects only and complies with Article 34 for all other housing types. In 1978, La Mesa residents voted to provide the City with authority to develop, acquire, or construct 200 senior units under Article 34. To date, the City has used 128 units of its Article 34 authority for the development of La Mesa Springs and CHAPTER 5: PUBLIC POLICIES 167 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 535 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE has a remaining capacity of 72 units. Voters in the City of San Diego approved Proposition A in November 2002 to provide the City with authority under Article 34 of the California Constitution to construct up to an additional 5,000 low -rent housing units. Proposition A gave authority for the 5,000 units, in addition to the authority for several thousand units that had been approved in previous citywide propositions. The voters of the City of Vista approved Proposition W in 1980, authorizing the development of up to 95 low income rental housing units per year without going to a public vote. In the past, Article 34 may have prevented certain projects from being built because seeking voter approval for such activities was controversial and difficult. In practice, most public agencies have learned how to structure projects to avoid triggering Article 34, such as limiting public assistance to 49 percent of the units in the project. Furthermore, the State legislature has enacted Sections 37001, 37001.3, and 37001.5 of the Health and Safety Code to clarify ambiguities relating to the scope of the applicability of Article 34. 2. Growth Management Programs Growth management programs facilitate well- planned development and ensure that the necessary services and facilities for residents are provided. However, a growth management program may act as a constraint if it prevents a jurisdiction from addressing its housing needs, which could indirectly impede fair housing choice. These programs range from general policies that require the expansion of public facilities and services concurrent with new development, to policies that establish urban growth boundaries (the outermost extent of anticipated urban development), to numerical limitations on the number of dwelling units that may be permitted annually. About one -half of the jurisdictions in San Diego County have adopted Growth Management Programs. While the programs are intended to manage growth, the programs are highly variable in detail. The City of Carlsbad has a growth management program that establishes a maximum amount of dwelling units for each quadrant of the City. However, the City of Carlsbad is also recognized as having one of the State's most effective inclusionary housing policies in producing affordable housing. The Growth Management Program of Chula Vista establishes thresholds for eleven areas including traffic, police, fire and emergency services, schools, libraries, parks and recreation, water, sewer, drainage, air quality, and economics. The City of Coronado currently does not engage in growth management activities; however, a citizen initiative was approved by the electorate on November 7, 2006 that, among various actions, designated all R -113 Zone land as R -1A (e) Zone. The R -113 Zone designation allowed development of 12 dwelling units per acre on lots with a minimum size of 3,500 square feet, while the R -1A (e) designation allows 8 dwelling units per acre development on lots of at least 5,250 square feet. The City Attorney's legal analysis of the proposed initiative stated that to impact the ultimate residential build -out density of the R -113 Zone, both the zoning designation /density of the area must be changed and the resulting sub -sized lots from that change must be merged. The Coronado City Council has initiated a legal challenge to all or portions of this initiative. The Encinitas General Plan includes an annual residential building limitation along with growth management policies and guidelines. The building limitation is based on the un -built development potential of the City at mid -range density divided by the remaining years of the 25 years build -out period (January 1989 to January 2014). Low- and moderate - income units, however, are exempted from this CHAPTER 5: PUBLIC POLICIES 168 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 536 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE allocation system. Encinitas is in the process of updating its Housing Element and Land Use Element. This limitation may be deleted as part of the update. Escondido, Encinitas, and Solana Beach require voter approval for all proposals to increase residential density or non - residential intensity (such as through general plan amendments). However, Escondido does not require voter approval for increase in density in cases where affordable housing is involved to ensure compliance with housing law. In 1979, the City of San Diego implemented a Tier System to manage growth. Under this system, the Urban Core would develop first, then the outlying urban area, and finally the Future Urbanizing Area which is now being developed. Growth is managed in the unincorporated areas of San Diego County through the Multiple Species Conservation Plan (MSCP) and establishment of residential buildout ceilings and large minimum lot sizes (40 acres in some cases) within several community planning areas. The cities of Coronado, Del Mar, El Cajon, Imperial Beach, La Mesa, Lemon Grove, National City, Oceanside, Poway, Santee, and Vista have not adopted growth management programs. State housing law mandates a jurisdiction facilitate the development of a variety of housing to meet the jurisdiction's fair share of regional housing needs. Any growth management measure that would compromise a jurisdiction's ability to meet its regional housing needs may have an exclusionary effect of limiting housing choices and opportunities of regional residents, or concentrating such opportunities in other areas of the region. 3. Inclusionary Housing Programs Inclusionary housing describes a local government's requirement specifying a percentage of new housing units be reserved for, and affordable to, lower- and moderate - income households. The goal of inclusionary housing programs is to increase the supply of affordable housing commensurate with new market -rate development in a jurisdiction. This can result in an improved regional jobs- housing balances and foster greater economic and racial integration within a community. The policy is most effective in areas experiencing rapid growth and a strong demand for housing. Inclusionary programs can be voluntary or mandatory. Voluntary programs typically require developers to negotiate with public officials but do not specifically mandate the provision of affordable units. Mandatory programs are usually codified in the zoning ordinance and developers are required to enter into a development agreement specifying the required number of affordable housing units or payment of applicable in -lieu fee"' prior to obtaining a building permit. In San Diego County, 11 jurisdictions have adopted inclusionary housing programs. All programs in the County can be described as mandatory because they require dedication of a fixed percentage of proposed units affordable to lower or moderate income households or payment of an in -lieu fee used to build new affordable housing units in the jurisdiction. Inclusionary housing programs in the County vary considerably by jurisdiction. For example, the City of Carlsbad requires 15 percent of all base residential 70 An in -lieu fee is the payment of a specified sum of money instead of constructing the required number of affordable housing units. The fee is used to finance affordable housing elsewhere in a community. CHAPTER 5: PUBLIC POLICIES 169 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 537 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE units within any Master Plan /Specific Plan community or other qualified subdivision (currently seven units or more) to be restricted and affordable to lower- income households. Chula Vista requires the provision of 10 percent (five percent low- income and five percent moderate - income) affordable housing within projects of 50 or more dwelling units. The City of Coronado's inclusionary housing program requires that parcel or subdivision maps involving two or more lots or two or more dwelling units provide 20 percent of the total units in the development for rent to lower income households. The City of El Cajon's affordable housing requirement was based on its redevelopment housing requirement. However, with the dissolution of redevelopment in California, this requirement is no longer applicable. The City's Housing Element includes an action to evaluate the need for a citywide inclusionary housing ordinance. G. Policies Causing Displacement or Affect Housing Choice of Minorities and Persons with Disabilities Local government policies could result in displacement or affect representation of minorities or the disabled. 1. Redevelopment Activities Until recently, redevelopment activity facilitated by policies and programs implemented by city /county redevelopment agencies could have impacted protected classes either through direct displacement or by limiting housing options in redevelopment project areas. However, the State of California dissolved redevelopment agencies effective February 1, 2012. Prior to dissolution, redevelopment had been used by participating agencies as a tool to remove blighted conditions, provide economic opportunities, create housing for lower and moderate income residents, renovate or replace deteriorated or dilapidated structures, develop vacant infill and under -used properties, and provide public infrastructure and other improvements to support private investment in deteriorated areas of San Diego County. Implementation of redevelopment project plans had provided a means for increasing housing choices for lower- and moderate - income residents and those with special needs. Today, most jurisdictions have suspended significant components of their affordable housing programs until a stable source of funding can be identified. Most typical programs suspended include homebuyer assistance and new affordable housing construction, both usually require significant resources. 2. Reasonable Accommodation Under State and Federal laws, local governments are required to "reasonably accommodate" housing for persons with disabilities when exercising planning and zoning powers. Jurisdictions must grant variances and zoning changes if necessary to make new construction or rehabilitation of housing for persons with disabilities feasible, but are not required to fundamentally alter their zoning ordinance. Although most local governments are aware of State and federal requirements to allow reasonable accommodations, if specific policies or procedures are not adopted by a jurisdiction, disabled residents may be unintentionally displaced or discriminated against. Most of the region's 19 jurisdictions, including Carlsbad, Chula Vista, Coronado, El Cajon, Escondido, La Mesa, National City, Poway, CHAPTER 5: PUBLIC POLICIES 170 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 538 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Santee, San Diego (City), San Diego (County), San Marcos, Solana Beach, and Vista have explicit recognition of their obligation to reasonably accommodate the housing needs of residents in the Municipal Code. As of February 2015, the cities of Del Mar, Encinitas, Imperial Beach, Lemon Grove, and Oceanside have not adopted formal reasonable accommodation procedures. In addition to adopting a formal process for granting reasonable accommodations, the City of Del Mar is also exploring a modification of the zoning code to allow an exemption from floor area ratio (FAR) calculations for residences that require additional building area solely to meet accessibility requirements. The City of Encinitas anticipates adopting formal procedures by 2017. Currently, most of the cities with adopted reasonable accommodations procedures (with the exception of Escondido, La Mesa, National City, Oceanside, and Santee) have a definition of disabled person in their Zoning Ordinance. A jurisdiction's definition of a disabled person can be considered an impediment to fair housing if it is not consistent with the definition of disability provided under the Fair Housing Act. The Act defines disabled person as "those individuals with mental or physical impairments that substantially limit one or more major life activities." All of the definitions used by San Diego jurisdictions are consistent with the Fair Housing Act and are not considered an impediment. H. Local Housing Authorities Fair Housing Case Summary — Reasonable Accommodations — City of San Diego The complainant (CP) is a single Caucasian female with a physical disability. CP viewed an apartment she wanted to rent. CP requested a reasonable modification from the Respondent to have a patio railing taken down so the CP could install a wheelchair accessible ramp. Respondent refused to allow the modification and informed CP she needed to wait several months for another apartment unit that does not have a patio. CP contacted a local fair housing service provider for help. The service provider intervened via a conciliation process. Respondent agreed to grant the modification, rented the original apartment to CP, had all management staff take fair housing training, and posted fair housing material in the manager's office pursuant to the conciliation agreement. Outcome: Successful conciliation; included injunctive relief. Agency: Legal Aid Society of San Diego In the San Diego region, the HUD Housing Choice Voucher program is administered by six different local housing authorities, two of which also oversee a public housing program. The following housing authorities only administer housing choice vouchers: Carlsbad, Encinitas, Oceanside, and National City. The housing authorities for the City and County of San Diego also own and manage public housing in addition to administering the Housing Choice Voucher program. The availability and use of Housing Choice Vouchers and public housing units must also adhere to fair housing laws. Most local housing authorities in the County have adopted priorities or preferences for Housing Choice Vouchers and /or public housing. Typically, families with children, elderly families, disabled families, and veterans are given preferences. Section 16(a)(3)(B) of the United States Housing Act (Housing Act) mandates that public housing authorities adopt an admissions policy that promotes the deconcentration of poverty in public housing. HUD emphasizes that the goal of deconcentration is to foster the development of mixed - income 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet CHAPTER 5: PUBLIC POLICIES 171 Page 539 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE communities within public housing. In mixed- income settings, lower income residents are provided with greater access to employment and information networks. For Housing Choice Vouchers, the Housing Act mandates that not less than 75 percent of new admissions must have incomes at or below 30 percent of the Area Median Income. The remaining balance of 25 percent may have incomes up to 50 percent of the Area Median Income. For public housing, the Housing Act mandates that not less than 40 percent of new admissions must have incomes at or below 30 percent of the Area Median Income. The balance of 60 percent of new admissions may have incomes up to 50 percent of the Area Median Income. I. California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) CEQA is California's broadest environmental law as it applies to all discretionary projects proposed to be conducted or approved by a public agency, including private projects that require government approval. The primary purpose of CEQA is to disclose to the public the significant environmental effects of a proposed project. CEQA also requires that public agencies disclose to the public the decision making process utilized to approve projects and is intended to enhance public participation in the environmental review process. In October 2011, the Governor signed into law SB 226, which allows for streamlined CEQA review for certain infill development projects, including some Transit Oriented Developments (TODs). The statute allows an exemption or limited environmental review of projects that meet certain criteria and are consistent with earlier policy documents such as General Plans, Specific Plans, or Master Plans. Subsequent environmental review of qualifying projects is limited to new or substantially greater impacts not adequately addressed in an earlier CEQA document. The streamlined environmental process allowed by SB 226 makes it possible for the environmental impacts of documents like a General Plan, Specific Plan, or Master Plan area to be analyzed long before a physical development project is proposed. Because SB 226 does not include a time limit, CEQA's environmental review and public comment requirements could be satisfied by a document prepared years prior to the proposal of a specific development proposal. Because infill and TOD projects are often proposed in under - served, lower- income and minority neighborhoods, the disjointed disclosure of potential environmental impacts resulting from SB 226 has potential for disproportionate adverse impacts on protected classes. J. Community Representation and Participation Adequate community involvement and representation is important to overcoming and identifying impediments to fair housing. Decisions regarding housing development in a community are typically made by the City Council or Board of Supervisors and applicable Planning Commissions. The Council or Board members are elected officials and answer to the constituents. Planning Commissioners are residents appointed by the Council or Board and often serve an advisory role. In addition to the City Council, Board of Supervisors, and Planning Commission, most jurisdictions have appointed commissions, committees, and task forces to address specific issues. Commissions dealing directly with housing issues are most common in the region's 19 jurisdictions; however, only CHAPTER 5: PUBLIC POLICIES 172 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 540 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE National City and the City of San Diego have commissions that specifically address special housing needs and only the City and County of San Diego have commissions specifically addressing the housing needs of persons with disabilities or families with children. These issues are often addressed in the remaining jurisdictions as part of a standing commission. Community participation can be limited or enhanced by actions or inaction by a public agency. According to the results of the Fair Housing Survey, ten San Diego residents reported being discriminated against by a government staff person. A broader range of residents may feel more comfortable approaching an agency with concerns or suggestions if that agency offers sensitivity or diversity training to its staff members that typically interface with the public. In addition, if there is a mismatch between the linguistic capabilities of staff members and the native languages of local residents, non - English speaking residents may be unintentionally excluded from the decision making process. Another factor that may affect community participation is the inadequacy of an agency or public facility to accommodate residents with various disabilities. Most jurisdictions in San Diego County have bi- lingual capabilities to serve Spanish - speaking residents, and many have multi - lingual capabilities. For example, the City of El Cajon offers services in Arabic. The HUD Programs Administration Office at the City of San Diego accommodates Spanish, Arabic and Tagalog speakers, and San Diego (City) has other multilingual capabilities upon request. The cities of Escondido, Oceanside and Vista, as well as the County of San Diego, have contracts with various language lines and are able to accommodate all languages. And the City of San Marcos has multi - lingual capabilities in Vietnamese, Farsi, Mandarin, Russian, Ukrainian, Arabic, Armenian, Afrikaans and Sign Language, in addition to Spanish. In addition, the city halls of all participating jurisdictions and the County Administration Buildings are accessible to persons with disabilities. Most jurisdictions in the San Diego County do not offer periodic sensitivity or diversity training for staff personnel. However, some jurisdictions do send their employees to periodic trainings. For example, both the City of Carlsbad and the City of Escondido send their employees to Respectful Workplace Training every two years. The City of Oceanside requires its Housing Staff to attend periodic trainings regarding Fair Housing Discrimination (Section 504 — Reasonable Accommodation training); these trainings are organized by North County Lifeline. The City of San Diego covers harassment and discrimination topics in its mandatory New Employee Orientation. In addition, a number of training opportunities (including EEO issues, sexual harassment prevention, reasonable accommodations, and customer service) are available to its supervisory employees. The County of San Diego provides at least two to three trainings annually for its employees. And, the City of Santee conducts mandatory training on a bi- annual basis. Topics covered in the mandatory training include: the types of behaviors that would constitute discrimination, harassment and /or retaliation as defined by the City of Santee; definitions of the types of behaviors that create a hostile, offensive and /or intimidating work environment; and what to do if an employee believes such behaviors have occurred in the workplace. 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet CHAPTER 5: PUBLIC POLICIES 173 Page 541 FAIR HOUSING PROFILE his chapter provides an overview of the institutional structure of the housing industry with regard to fair housing practices. In addition, this chapter discusses the fair housing services available to residents in San Diego County, as well as the nature and extent of fair housing complaints received by the fair housing providers. Typically, fair housing services encompass the investigation and resolution of housing discrimination complaints, discrimination auditing /testing, and education and outreach, including the dissemination of fair housing information. Tenant /landlord counseling services are usually offered by fair housing service providers, but are not considered fair housing services. A. Fair Housing in the Homeownership Market Part of the American dream involves owning a home in the neighborhood of one's choice. Homeownership is believed to enhance one's sense of well- being, is a primary way to accumulate wealth, and is believed to strengthen neighborhoods, because residents with a greater stake in their community will be more active in decisions affecting the future of their community. Not all Americans, however, have always enjoyed equal access to homeownership due to credit market distortions, "redlining," steering, and predatory lending practices. On December 5, 1996, HUD and the National Association of REALTORSO (NAR) entered into a Fair Housing Partnership. Article VII of the HUD /NAR Fair Housing Partnership Resolution provides that HUD and NAR develop a Model Affirmative Fair Housing Marketing Plan for use by members of the NAR to satisfy HUD's Affirmative Fair Housing Marketing regulations. Yet there is still much room for discrimination in the housing market. 1. The Homeownership Process The following discussions describe the process of homebuying and likely situations when a person /household may encounter housing discrimination. However, much of this process occurs in the private housing market, over which local jurisdictions have little control or authority to regulate. The recourse lies in the ability of the contracted fair housing service providers in monitoring these activities, identifying the perpetrators, and taking appropriate reconciliation or legal actions. Advertising The first thing a potential buyer is likely to do when they consider buying a home is search advertisements either in magazines, newspapers, or the Internet to get a feel for what the market offers. Advertisements cannot include discriminatory references, such as the use of words describing: ■ Current or potential residents; CHAPTER 6: FAIR HOUSING PROFILE 174 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 542 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE • Neighbors or the neighborhood in racial or ethnic terms; • Adults preferred; • Perfect for empty- nesters; • Conveniently located by a Catholic Church; or • Ideal for married couples without kids. In a survey of online listings for homes available for purchase in San Diego County in March 2015, a limited number of advertisements included potentially discriminatory language. Of a total of 475 listings surveyed, 77 listings included references to something other than the physical description of the home or included amenities and services (Table 70). All of the potentially discriminatory advertisements were targeted specifically at families through the identification of quality school districts, nearby schools, and available family amenities.

Advertising has become a sensitive area in real estate. In some instances advertisements published in non - English languages may make those who speak English uncomfortable, yet when ads are only placed in English they place non - English speaking residents at a disadvantage. While real estate advertising can be published in other languages, by law, an English version of the ad must also be published. However, monitoring this requirement is difficult, if not impossible. CHAPTER 6: FAIR HOUSING PROFILE 175 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 543 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Even if an agent does not intend to discriminate in an ad, it would still be considered a violation to suggest to a reader whether or not a particular group is preferred. Litigation has also set precedence for violations in advertisements that hold publishers, newspapers, Multiple Listing Services, real estate agents, and brokers accountable for discriminatory ads. Lending Initially, buyers must find a lender that will qualify them for a loan. This part of the process entails an application, credit check, ability to repay, amount eligible for, choosing the type and terms of the loan, etc. Applicants are requested to provide a lot of sensitive information including their gender, ethnicity, income level, age, and familial status. Most of this information is used for reporting purposes required of lenders by the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) and the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA). However, the recent mortgage lending crisis has demonstrated widespread misuse of the information, where lower income households and minorities have been targeted for predatory lending. Lending discrimination can occur during advertising /outreach, pre - application inquiries, loan approval /denial and terms /conditions, and loan administration. Further areas of potential discrimination include: differences in the level of encouragement, financial assistance, types of loans recommended, amount of down payment required, and level of customer service provided. Real Estate Agents Real estate agents may act as agents of discrimination. Some unintentionally, or possibly intentionally, may steer a potential buyer to particular neighborhoods by encouraging the buyer to look into certain areas; others may choose not to show the buyer all choices available. Agents may also discriminate by who they agree to represent, who they turn away, and the comments they make about their clients. The California Association of REALTORSO (CAR) has included language on many standard forms disclosing fair housing laws to those involved. Many REALTORO Associations also host fair housing trainings /seminars to educate members on the provisions and liabilities of fair housing laws, and the Equal Opportunity Housing Symbol is also printed on all CAR forms as a reminder. Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC &Rs) Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC &Rs), are restrictive promises that involve voluntary agreements, running with the land with which they are associated and are listed in a recorded Declaration of Restrictions. The Statute of Frauds (Civil Code Section 1624) requires them to be in writing, because they involve real property. They must also be recorded in the County where the property is located in order to bind future owners. Owners of parcels may agree amongst themselves as to the restrictions on use, but in order to be enforceable they must be reasonable. The California Department of Real Estate reviews CC &Rs for all subdivisions of five or more lots, or condominiums of five or more units. This review is authorized by the Subdivided Lands Act and mandated by the Business Professions Code, Section 11000. The review includes a wide range of issues, CHAPTER 6: FAIR HOUSING PROFILE 176 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 544 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE including compliance with fair housing law. The review must be completed and approved before the Department of Real Estate will issue a final subdivision public report. This report is required before a real estate broker or anyone can sell the units, and each prospective buyer must be issued a copy of the report. If the CC &Rs are not approved, the Department of Real Estate will issue a "deficiency notice ", requiring the CC &Rs be revised. CC &Rs are void if they are unlawful, impossible to perform or are in restraint on alienation (a clause that prohibits someone from selling or transferring his /her property). However, older subdivisions and condominium /townhome developments may contain illegal clauses which are enforced by the homeowners associations. Homeowners Insurance Industry Insurance is the cornerstone of credit. Without insurance, banks and other financial institutions lend less. Fewer loans lead to fewer new homes constructed and more existing homeowners will forgo repairs leaving buildings to deteriorate faster.71 Many traditional industry underwriting practices which may have some legitimate business purpose also adversely affect lower income and minority households and neighborhoods. For example, if a company excludes older homes from coverage, lower income and minority households who may only be able to afford to buy in older neighborhoods may be disproportionately affected. Another example includes private mortgage insurance (PMI). PMI obtained by applicants from Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) protected neighborhoods is known to reduce lender risk. Redlining of lower income and minority neighborhoods can occur if otherwise qualified applicants are denied or encouraged to obtain PMI.'Z Underwriting guidelines are not public information; however, consumers have begun to seek access to these underwriting guidelines to learn if certain companies have discriminatory policies. The California Fair Access to Insurance Requirements (FAIR) Plan was created by the Legislature in 1968 after the brush fires and riots of the 1960s made it difficult for some people to purchase fire insurance due to hazards beyond their control. The FAIR Plan is designed to make property insurance more readily available to people who have difficulty obtaining it from private insurers because their property is considered "high risk." The California Organized Investment Network (COIN) is a collaboration of the California Department of Insurance, the insurance industry, community economic development organizations, and community advocates. This collaboration was formed in 1996 at the request of the insurance industry as an alternative to state legislation that would have required insurance companies to invest in underserved communities, similar to the federal Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) that applies to the banking industry. COIN is a voluntary program that facilitates insurance industry investments, which provide profitable returns to investors, and economic and social benefits to underserved communities. 71 National Advisory Panel on Insurance in Riot Affected Areas, 1968. 72 "Borrower and Neighborhood Racial Characteristics and Financial Institution Financial Application Screening"; Mester, Loretta J; Journal of Real Estate Finance and Economics; 9 241 -243; 1994 CHAPTER 6: FAIR HOUSING PROFILE 177 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 545 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Credit and FICO Scores Credit history is one of the most important factors in obtaining a home purchase loan. Credit scores determine loan approval, interest rates associated with the loan, as well as the type of loan an applicant will be given. Applicants with high credit scores are generally given conventional loans, while lower and moderate range scores revert to FHA or other government- backed loans. Applicants with lower scores also receive higher interest rates on the loans as a result of being perceived as a higher risk to the lender, and may even be required to pay points depending on the type of lending institution used. Fair Isaac and Company (FICO), which is the company used by the Experian (formerly TRW) credit bureau to calculate credit scores, has set the standard for the scoring of credit history. Trans -Union and Equifax are two other credit bureaus providing credit scores, though they are typically used to a lesser degree. In short, points are awarded or deducted based on certain items such as how long one has had credit cards, whether one makes payments on time, if credit balances are near maximum, etc. Typically, the scores range from the 300s to around 850, with higher scores demonstrating lower risk. Lower credit scores require a more thorough review than higher scores and mortgage lenders will often not even consider a score below 600. FICO scores became more heavily relied on by lenders when studies demonstrated that borrowers with scores above 680 almost always made payments on time, while borrowers with scores below 600 seemed fairly certain to develop problems. Some of the factors that affect a FICO score are: • Delinquencies • New accounts (opened within the last twelve months) • Length of credit history (a longer history of established credit is better than a short history) • Balances on revolving credit accounts • Public records, such as tax liens, judgments, or bankruptcies • Credit card balances • Number of inquiries • Number and types of revolving accounts However, the recent mortgage lending crisis was, in part, a result of lenders providing mortgage financing to borrowers who are not credit worthy, or steering borrowers who can qualify for lower cost loans to the subprime market. 2. National Association of REALTORS® (NAR) The National Association of REALTORSO (NAR) has developed a Fair Housing Program to provide resources and guidance to RF_.AI,TORSO in ensuring equal professional services for all people. The term REALTORO identifies a licensed professional in real estate who is a member of the NAR; however, not all licensed real estate brokers and salespersons are members of the NAR. CHAPTER 6: FAIR HOUSING PROFILE 178 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 546 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Code ofEthics Article 10 of the NAR Code of Ethics provides that " REALTORSO shall not deny equal professional services to any person for reasons of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, national origin, sexual orientation, or gender identity. REALTORSO shall not be parties to any plan or agreement to discriminate against a person or persons on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, national origin, sexual orientation, or gender identity." A REALTORO pledges to conduct business in keeping with the spirit and letter of the Code of Ethics. Article 10 imposes obligations upon REALTORSO and is also a firm statement of support for equal opportunity in housing. A REALTORO who suspects discrimination is instructed to can the local Board of REALTORSO. Local Boards of REALTORSO will accept complaints alleging violations of the Code of Ethics filed by a home seeker who alleges discriminatory treatment in the availability, purchase or rental of housing. Local Boards of REALTORSO have a responsibility to enforce the Code of Ethics through professional standards procedures and corrective action in cases where a violation of the Code of Ethics is proven to have occurred. Additionally, Standard of Practice Article 10 -1 states that, "When involved in the sale or lease of a residence, REALTORSO shall not volunteer information regarding the racial, religious or ethnic composition of any neighborhood nor shall they engage in any activity which may result in panic selling, however, REALTORSO may provide other demographic information." Standard of Practice 10 -3 adds that " REALTORSO shall not print, display or circulate any statement or advertisement with respect to selling or renting of a property that indicates any preference, limitations or discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, national origin, sexual orientation, or gender identity." Diversity Certification NAR has created a diversity certification, "At Home with Diversity: One America" to be granted to licensed real estate professionals who meet eligibility requirements and complete the NAR "At Home with Diversity' course. The certification will signal to customers that the real estate professional has been trained on working with diversity in today's real estate markets. The coursework provides valuable business planning tools to assist real estate professionals in reaching out and marketing to a diverse housing market. The NAR course focuses on diversity awareness, building cross - cultural skills, and developing a business diversity plan. 3. California Department of Real Estate (DRE) The California Department of Real Estate (DRE) is the licensing authority for real estate brokers and salespersons. As noted earlier, not all licensed brokers and salespersons are members of the National or California Association of REALTORSO. The DRE has adopted education requirements that include courses in ethics and in fair housing. To renew a real estate license, each licensee is required to complete 45 hours of continuing education, including three hours in each of the four mandated areas: Agency, Ethics, Trust Fund, and Fair 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet CHAPTER 6: FAIR HOUSING PROFILE 179 Page 547 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Housing. The fair housing course contains information that will enable an agent to identify and avoid discriminatory practices when providing real estate services to clients. For the initial renewal, the law requires, as part of the 45 hours of continuing education, completion of five mandatory three -hour courses in Agency, Ethics, Trust Fund Handling and Fair Housing and Risk Management. These licensees will also be required to complete a minimum of 18 additional hours of courses related to consumer protection. The remaining hours required to fulfill the 45 hours of continuing education may be related to either consumer service or consumer protection, at the option of the licensee. 4. California Association of REALTORSO (CAR) The California Association of Realtors (CAR) is a trade association of realtors statewide. As members of organized real estate, realtors also subscribe to a strict code of ethics as noted above. CAR has recently created the position of Equal Opportunity /Cultural Diversity Coordinator. CAR holds three meetings per year for its general membership, and the meetings typically include sessions on fair housing issues. Current outreach efforts in the Southern California area are directed to underserved communities and state - licensed brokers and sales persons who are not members of the CAR. REAL TORO Associations Serving San Diego County REALTOR® Associations are generally the first line of contact for real estate agents who need continuing education courses, legal forms, career development, and other daily work necessities. The frequency and availability of courses varies amongst these associations, and local association membership is generally determined by the location of the broker for which an agent works. Complaints involving agents or brokers may be filed with these associations. Monitoring of services by these associations is difficult as detailed statistics of the education /services the agencies provide or statistical information pertaining to the members is rarely available. The following associations serve San Diego County: • Greater San Diego Association of REALTORS (SDAR) • North County Association of REALTORS (NSDCAR) • Pacific Southwest Association of REALTORS (PSAR) The Realtor Associations that serve San Diego County use the Sandicor (San Diego County's Regional Multiple Listing Service). Complaints against members are handled by the associations as follows. First, all complaints must be in writing. Once a complaint is received, a grievance committee reviews the complaint to decide if it warrants further investigation. If further investigation is necessary, a professional standards hearing with all parties involved takes place. If the member is found guilty of a violation, the member may be expelled from the association, and the California Department of Real Estate is notified. CHAPTER 6: FAIR HOUSING PROFILE 180 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 548 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE B. Fair Housing in the Rental Housing Market 1. Rental Process Advertising San Diego County, like most parts of California, is facing a shortage of rental housing. Most rental properties have low vacancy rates and do not require published advertising. Often, vacancy is announced either via word of mouth of existing tenants or a for -rent sign outside the property. Unless one happens to drive by the neighborhood or have friends or families currently residing at the property, one may not have access to information regarding vacancy. Furthermore, this practice tends to intensify segregation of neighborhoods and properties that already have a high concentration of a racial /ethnic group. When advertising is done, no checks - and - balances mechanism exists to ensure English advertising is provided. A large number of rental listings in San Diego County contain potentially discriminatory language, such as encouraging or discouraging family living, or potentially discouraging persons with disabilities by emphasizing a no -pet policy without clarifications that service /companion animals are allowed. Like with ad listings for for -sale homes, rental advertisements cannot include discriminatory references. A total of 475 rental listings were surveyed in March 2015 and 141 advertisements were found to contain potentially discriminatory language (Table 71). The problematic language typically involved references to household size, familial status, schools or children (63 ads) and pets (74 ads). Fair Housing Case Summary — Reasonable Accommodation for Person with Disabilities — City of San Diego Facts: The complainant (CP) is minor child with mental health disabilities. CP made a reasonable accommodation request to have an assistance animal dog. CP provided a doctor letter from her doctor who practices in Mexico, five (5) miles from the apartment building. Management refused to process the accommodation because the doctor was from Mexico and they stated that because the doctor is not from the United States, the respondent could not verify the disability and the need for request. LASSD intervened via conciliation, and the respondent agreed to grant the reasonable accommodation, have all staff members attend fair housing training, and provide fair housing materials to all residents. Outcome: Sustains allegations; Successful conciliation Agency: Legal Aid Society of San Diego Under California's fair housing law, source of income is a protected class. It is, therefore, considered unlawful to prefer, limit, or discriminate against a specific income source for a potential homebuyer. Section 8 is not included as a part of this protected class, however, and rental advertisements that specifically state Section 8 vouchers are not accepted are considered legal. However, this language tends to give the impression of discrimination. Rental advertisements with references to pets in San Diego County were a significant issue in the listings surveyed. Persons with disabilities are one of the protected classes under fair housing law, and apartments must allow "service animals" and "companion animals," under certain conditions. Service animals are animals that are individually trained to perform tasks for people with disabilities such as 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet CHAPTER 6: FAIR HOUSING PROFILE 181 Page 549 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE guiding people who are blind, alerting people who are deaf, pulling wheelchairs, alerting and protecting a person who is having a seizure, or performing other special tasks. Service animals are working animals, not pets. Companion animals, also referred to as assistive or therapeutic animals, can assist individuals with disabilities in their daily living and as with service animals, help disabled persons overcome the limitations of their disabilities and the barriers in their environment. Persons with disabilities have the right to ask their housing provider to make a reasonable accommodation in a "no pets" policy in order to allow for the use of a companion or service animal. However, in the case of rental ads that specifically state "no pets," some disabled persons may not be aware of their right to ask for an exception to this rule. Because of this, a person with a disability may see themselves as limited in their housing options and a "no pets" policy could, therefore, be interpreted as potentially discriminatory. Of the rental listings surveyed, 74 ads included language to specifically ban Pets.

CHAPTER 6: FAIR HOUSING PROFILE 183 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 551 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Responding to Ads Differential treatment of those responding to advertisements is a growing fair housing concern. In a 2011 study conducted nationally, comprehensive audit -style experiments via email correspondence were used to test for racial discrimination in the rental housing market. This study was particularly unique because it tested for two variables — discrimination based on race and social class. By responding to online rental listings using names associated with a particular racial /ethnic group and varying message content grammatically to indicate differing levels of education and /or income (i.e. social class), researchers found that, overall, Blacks continued to experience statistically significant levels of discrimination in the rental housing market. This discrimination was even more pronounced when the housing inquiry was made to look like it originated from a Black individual of a lower social class.' The Los Angeles area was one of the metropolitan regions included in this particular study, which found that the Los Angeles and Boston areas exhibited some of the highest levels of discrimination in the country. Viewing the Unit Viewing the unit is the most obvious place where the potential renters may encounter discrimination because landlords or managers may discriminate based on race or disability, or judge on appearance whether a potential renter is reliable or may violate any of the rules. In a follow up to the study discussed above, researchers developed an experiment to test for subtle discrimination. Subtle discrimination is defined as unequal treatment between groups that occurs but is difficult to quantify, and may not always be identifiable through common measures such as price differences. Researchers found that, in general, landlords replied faster and with longer messages to inquiries made from traditional "white" names. The study also found that landlords were more likely to use descriptive language, extend invitations to view a unit, invite further correspondence, use polite language, and make a formal greeting when replying to e -mail inquiries from a white home seeker.74 Credit /Income Check Landlords may ask potential renters to provide credit references, lists of previous addresses and landlords, and employment history /salary. The criteria for tenant selection, if any, are typically not known to those seeking to rent. Many landlords often use credit history as an excuse when trying to exclude certain groups. Legislation provides for applicants to receive a copy of the report used to evaluate applications. 73 Do Landlords Discriminate in the Rental Housing Market?

CHAPTER 6: FAIR HOUSING PROFILE 184 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 552 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE The study on subtle discrimination mentioned earlier found no statistically significant evidence of discrimination in using language related to fees, asking for employment or rental history, or requesting background information. The Lease Most apartments are rented under either a lease agreement or a month -to -month rental agreement. A lease is favorable from a tenant's point of view for two reasons: the tenant is assured the right to live there for a specific period of time and the tenant has an established rent during that period. Most other provisions of a lease protect the landlord. Information written in a lease or rental agreement includes the rental rate, required deposit, length of occupancy, apartment rules, and termination requirements. Typically, the lease or rental agreement is a standard form completed for all units within the same building. However, the enforcement of the rules contained in the lease or agreement may not be standard for all tenants. A landlord may choose to strictly enforce the rules for certain tenants based on arbitrary factors, such as race, presence of children, or disability. In recent years, complaints regarding tenant harassment through strict enforcement of lease agreements as a means of evicting tenants have increased significantly. Lease - related language barriers can impede fair housing choice if landlords and tenants do not speak the same language. In California, applicants and tenants have the right to negotiate lease terms primarily in Spanish, Chinese, Tagalog, Vietnamese or Korean. If a language barrier exists, the landlord must give the tenant a written translation of the proposed lease or rental agreement in the language used in the negotiation before the tenant signs it.75 This rule applies to lease terms of one month or longer and whether the negotiations are oral or in writing.

Cp has a disability that severely impacts her mobility. Cp is a Section 8 recipient. Cp placed a deposit of $943.00 on her apartment. Cp signed a lease agreement to move into her apartment as of May 3, 2014. Cp states that residential manager told her she could not move into the apartment until May 27, 2014. Cp states residential manager refused to return security deposit. Cp requests to move to another location and does not go through with move.

To deter "less -than- desirable" tenants, a landlord may ask for a security deposit higher than for others. Tenants may also face discriminatory treatment when vacating the units. For example, the landlord may choose to return a smaller portion of the security deposit to some tenants, claiming excessive wear and tear. A landlord may also require that persons with disabilities pay an additional pet rent for their service animals, a monthly surcharge for pets, or a deposit, which is also a discriminatory act. During the Tenancy During tenancy, the most common forms of discrimination a tenant may face are based on familial status, race, national origin, sex, or disability. Usually this type of discrimination appears in the form of varying enforcement of rules, overly strict rules for children, excessive occupancy standards, refusal to make a reasonable accommodation for handicapped access, refusal to make necessary repairs, eviction notices, illegal entry, rent increases, or harassment. These actions may be used as a way to force undesirable tenants to move on their own without the landlord having to make an eviction. 2. Apartment Association of California The California Apartment Association (CAA) is the country's largest statewide trade association for rental property owners and managers. The CAA was incorporated in 1941 to serve rental property owners and managers throughout California.

The NCL Housing Collaborative provides services to the cities of Coronado, Del Mar, Imperial Beach, Lemon Grove, Poway, Solana Beach and the County unincorporated areas. 5. Overall Service Coverage Overall, the region is well served by multiple agencies for fair housing services. However, residents may find it hard to navigate the service system and identify the appropriate agency for contact, as commented by some workshop participants. A jurisdiction's contract for fair housing service providers may also change year to year. To ensure the public is well aware of available services, the SDRAFFH and local jurisdictions should update their websites and outreach materials frequently. Furthermore, consistent recordkeeping formats would assist in the compilation and analysis of fair housing data across agencies. CHAPTER 6: FAIR HOUSING PROFILE 190 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 558 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE D. California Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH) The California Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH) investigates complaints of employment and housing discrimination based on race, sex, religious creed, color, national origin, medical condition (cured cancer only), ancestry, physical or mental disability, marital status, or age (over 40 only). DFEH also investigates complaints of housing discrimination based on the above classes, as well as children /age, and sexual orientation. DFEH established a program in May 2003 for mediating housing discrimination complaints, which is a first for the State of California and is the largest fair housing mediation program in the nation to be developed under HUD's Partnership Initiative with state fair housing enforcement agencies. The program provides California's tenants, landlords, and property owners and managers with a means of resolving housing discrimination cases in a fair, confidential, and cost - effective manner. 76 Key features of the program are: 1) program is free of charge to the parties; and 2) mediation takes place within the first 30 days of the filing of the complaint, often avoiding the financial and emotional costs associated with a full DFEH investigation and potential litigation. After a person calls in for a complaint, an interview takes place, documentation is obtained and issues are discussed to decide on the course to proceed. Mediation /conciliation is offered as a viable alternative to litigation. If the mediation /conciliation is successful, the case is closed after a brief case follow -up. If the mediation /conciliation is unsuccessful, the case is then referred to DFEH or HUD. If during case development further investigation is deemed necessary, testing may be performed. Once the investigation is completed, the complainant is advised of the alternatives available in proceeding with the complaint, which include: mediation/ conciliation, administrative filing with HUD or DFEH, referral for consideration to the Department of Justice, Civil Rights Division, Housing and Civil Enforcement Section, or referral to a private attorney for possible litigation. E. Fair Housing Statistics As part of the enforcement and tracking services provided by the above mentioned fair housing service providers, intake and documentation of all complaints and inquiries result in the compilation of statistics provided to each jurisdiction in the form of quarterly and annual reports. However, because the various agencies that provide fair housing services in the County each have their own intake forms, the amount and specificity of available fair housing data is highly uneven throughout the County and difficult to use for regional comparisons and analyses. The following sections summarize fair housing statistics in San Diego County using available data and sources: 76 DFEH News Brief, May 29, 2003 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet CHAPTER 6: FAIR HOUSING PROFILE 191 Page 559 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE 1. Fair Housing Survey A total of 366 residents provided responses to the fair housing survey conducted as part of this Al. According to the survey, race (33 percent), disability (29 percent), and source of income (29 percent) were identified as the leading bases for discrimination by respondents. The survey also indicated that housing discrimination in the County was severely underreported. Only 18 (25 percent) of the people who experienced housing discrimination reported the incident —even though a total of 90 people reported being discriminated against. Among those who had not reported the issue, the majority cited they did not believe it would make a difference as the reason for not reporting the incident. 2. CSA San Diego County (CSA) Housing Discrimination Complaints Between FY 2009 -10 and FY 2013 -14, CSA provided fair housing services to over 700 San Diego County residents per year —for a total of 3,559 clients over the five -year period. The majority of CSR's clients during this time period came from: El Cajon (54 percent), La Mesa (16 percent) and Carlsbad (10 percent). Statistics reported throughout San Diego County indicate that low- income persons, regardless of race, are the most frequently impacted by fair housing issues. The vast majority of CSR's clients (95 percent) between FY 2009 -10 and FY 2013 -14 were either extremely low or very low income. Consistent with the demographic makeup of the region, White residents reported the majority of housing complaints (56 percent). However, there is some indication that fair housing issues seemed to disproportionately affect certain racial /ethnic groups. For example, Black residents made up less than five percent of the population in the cities that CSA serves, but represented 11 percent of fair housing complainants. A detailed breakdown of clients by jurisdiction can be found in Appendix C. Fair Housing Cases Between FY 2009 -10 and FY 2013 -14, only 136 persons (four percent) reported allegations of housing discrimination to CSA and even fewer turned into actual cases where further investigations or actions were warranted. Often, complaints of alleged discrimination do not constitute actual or potential violations of fair housing laws. The majority of fair housing complaints made to CSA involved discrimination based on race /color (35 percent), disability (27 percent), and national origin (12 percent). The jurisdictions of El Cajon (73 complaints) and La Mesa (21 complaints) recorded the most complaints. A detailed breakdown of complaints by jurisdiction and basis of discrimination can be found in Appendix C. Tenant /Landlord Counseling In addition to investigating allegations of housing discrimination, CSA provides tenant /landlord counseling services. In fact, the overwhelming majority of those contacting CSA for assistance are in need of these counseling services. Of the clients served by CSA during FY 2009 -10 to FY 2013 -14, CHAPTER 6: FAIR HOUSING PROFILE 192 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 560 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE 3,423 residents (96 percent) contacted CSA with requests for assistance with landlord /tenant issues. The number of residents seeking counseling services has steadily increased over time —from 265 persons in FY 2009 -10 to 1,064 persons in FY 2013 -14. Education and Outreach Efforts Education is one of the most important components of providing fair housing services. Outreach and education give residents the knowledge to understand their rights and responsibilities, to recognize discrimination, and locate resources if they need to file a complaint or need general assistance. The following discussion highlights some of the educational /outreach efforts undertaken by CSA. CSA conducts regular workshops and educational presentations, including general Fair Housing workshops and also those specifically held to educate and address the needs of small property owners. Workshops and presentations cover a wide range of issues including tenant and landlord rights and responsibilities, notices to vacate, substandard conditions, and foreclosures. Some presentations have previously included a volunteer attorney who discussed legality of evictions and new law inclusions. In recent years, presentations have been given to Cajon Valley Union School District Home Start, Catholic Charities, Kurdish Human Rights Watch, International Rescue Committee and Adult Protective Services and Access to Independence. Additionally, as chairs of the EI Cajon Newcomers Group, which provides resources to new and non - English speaking immigrants /refugees, CSA commits to providing services to the local immigrant community. These include helping develop and distribute resource guides for this community such as the English as a Second Language (ESL) Resource Guide, and being a resource for landlord/ tenants' rights, hate crime prevention and immigration advocacy. To remain involved and up -to -date on issues concerning fair housing, CSA attends the quarterly meetings and serves on the steering committee of the San Diego Regional Alliance for Fair Housing (SDRAFFH). During these meetings CSA and other fair housing providers discuss challenges, resources and strategies for addressing fair housing in San Diego County. 3. Fair Housing Legal Aid Society San Diego (LASSD) Between May 2012 and December 2014, LASSD opened over 10,000 housing intake applications for San Diego County residents. The majority of LASSD client households during this time period resided in the City of San Diego (52 percent), El Cajon (eight percent) and the unincorporated County (eight percent). A detailed breakdown of cases by jurisdiction can be found in Appendix C. Housing Discrimination Complaints Approximately 38 percent of LASSD clients were White. However, based on the data reported by LASSD, fair housing issues did seem to disproportionately affect some San Diego County residents. For example, Black residents made up less than five percent of the total County population, yet represented 24 percent of fair housing complainants. 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet CHAPTER 6: FAIR HOUSING PROFILE 193 Page 561 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Between May 2012 and December 2014, almost one - quarter of LASSD's cases involved complainants suffering from a physical disability and another 10 percent involved complainants suffering from a mental disability. About 12 percent of case complainants suffered from both physical and mental disabilities. During this time period, 1,167 cases (approximately 11 percent) involved senior complainants (62 years and older) and over 3,500 (approximately 35 percent of all) involved female - headed households. Fair Housing Cases After screening all housing discrimination complaints, LASSD reports having investigated a total of 304 meritorious fair housing cases between May 2012 and December 2014 — only about three percent of all calls concerning housing complaints during that time period. A majority of these cases (64 percent) were complaints based on discrimination due to a disability. Complaints based on disparate treatment due to race (33 cases or 11 percent) and national origin (29 cases or 10 percent) were also fairly common. Two cases were litigated in federal court with a total judgment amount over $400,000. Tenant /Landlord Counseling LASSD provided counseling to a majority of the clients that contacted the agency with housing complaints. The majority of complaints filed were not deemed to be fair housing issues. About 10,000 San Diego County residents contacted LASSD with tenant /landlord counseling issues between May 2012 and December 2014. The majority of these tenant /landlord complaints concerned evictions (40 percent), lease terminations (5 percent) and substandard conditions /a landlord's warranty of habitability (5 percent). Education and Outreach Efforts LASSD is currently working with the San Diego Housing Commission to develop a strategy for the de- concentration of Housing Choice Vouchers. In addition, 6,609 multilingual brochures were distributed to promote equal access to information. Brochures were made available in the following languages: English, Spanish, Vietnamese, Chinese, and Tagalog. LASSD also meets monthly with the City of San Diego and Housing Opportunities Collaborative in order to evaluate service gaps and to ensure an adequate level of service is available to all residents. In addition, LASSD has established a Fair Housing Hotline to ensure its Fair Housing services are readily available to the community and that a resident may promptly report any act of housing discrimination that may have occurred. 4. Housing Opportunities Collaborative (HOC) Housing Discrimination Complaints Between FY 2013 -2014 and FY 2014 -15 (as of March 2015), a total of 7,854 San Diego residents contacted HOC with requests for assistance. HOC estimates that 18.2 percent were clients HOC served CHAPTER 6: FAIR HOUSING PROFILE 194 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 562 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE and who reside outside of the city of San Diego; and whose requests were outside of the Fair Housing Services agreement. Fair Housing Cases Only 157 requests for assistance (eight percent) were related to housing discrimination and only a small portion of these discrimination complaints (approximately 21 percent or 33 complaints) were referred to LASSD for further legal assistance. Based on the data reported by HOC, 39 percent of clients between FY 2012 -13 and FY 2013 -14 were White, 27 percent were Hispanic, and another 17 percent identified as Other /Multiple Race. Over one -half (51 percent) of all housing discrimination complaints filed involved allegations of discrimination based on disability. Common disability discrimination complaints include the permitting of service animals in a residence or allowing for reasonable accommodations. An additional 27 percent reported discrimination complaints on the basis of race. A breakdown of complaints by basis of discrimination can be found in Appendix C. Tenant /Landlord Counseling Like other fair housing service providers in the County, HOC also provides tenant /landlord counseling services. A total of 1,968 San Diego County residents contacted HOC for assistance with landlord /tenant issues and complaints between FY 2013 to FY 2015 (as of March 2015). Issues brought up during tenant /landlord disputes ranged from eviction to lease terms. The most common topics mentioned were evictions and notices (39 percent) and repairs (36 percent). HOC records identified the following as the most common complaints made by residents: • Evictions /Notices — 39 percent • Repairs /Notices — 36 percent • Security Deposit — 21 percent • Other: 4 percent (ex. Parking, Small Claims) Education and Outreach Efforts Outreach and education is a key component of HOC's services. HOC promotes equal access to housing by educating the public regarding home ownership and landlord- tenant rights and responsibilities, seeking financial and capacity building resources, and providing financial and other resources, and monitoring compliance with housing related laws. Specifically, HOC sponsors and conducts educational workshops such as Personal Financial Management workshops throughout the region. 5. North County Lifeline (NCL) NCL provided services to 1,431 clients FY 2010 -11 and FY 2014 -15 to residents in its service area. Most clients resided in the City of Escondido (479 clients) and Oceanside (373 clients). In addition, as the lead agency for the North County Lifeline Collaborative, NCL oversaw fair housing services to CHAPTER 6: FAIR HOUSING PROFILE 195 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 563 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE another 2,336 clients between FY2009 -10 and FY 2013 -14. Within its service area, the majority of these clients resided in the County's unincorporated areas (47 percent), the City of San Diego (27 percent) and the City of Lemon Grove (10 percent). Fair Housing Cases Between FY 2010 -11 and FY 2014 -15, a total of 130 fair housing cases were filed with NCL. Approximately 60 percent of all cases originated in the City of Escondido (41 cases) and the City of Oceanside (38 cases). In Escondido, over half of all cases filed reported discrimination on the basis of a disability, or the refusal to provide a reasonable accommodation or modification. Similarly in Oceanside, over 70 percent of all cases were filed based on discrimination due to a disability or the request of a reasonable accommodation or modification. Cases were also filed in cities of Vista (22 cases), San Marcos (21 cases), and Encinitas (8 cases). Almost half of all cases in each city were based on discrimination on the basis of disability, or allowing for a reasonable accommodation or modification. Through the NCL Housing Collaborative, 100 cases were filed and nearly 40 percent of all cases reported discrimination on the basis of disability and another 24 percent were filed on the basis of discrimination towards race /color. Tenant /Landlord Counseling NCL also provides tenant /landlord counseling services. The majority of those that contact NCL for assistance are in need of housing counseling services. Of the services provided by NCL during FY 2010- 10 to FY 2014 -15, 1,301 residents (91 percent) contacted NCL with requests for assistance with landlord /tenant issues. The most common landlord tenant complaints were in regards to notices for eviction, habitability, and "other." Additionally, the North County Lifeline Collaborative also provided tenant and landlord counseling services to over 2,200 residents. Education and Outreach Efforts NCL offers assistance to low- income tenants and homebuyers to obtain and /or maintain decent housing through education.

NCL also provides training services to property managers and landlords. In 2011, NCL updated its website for hearing impaired persons. The agency also updated their flyers (available in both English and Spanish), which were made available during classes, trainings, community events, and various locations throughout the County. Additionally, NCL developed a plan for Limited English Proficiency (LEP) clientele, which identifies when translation of documents into languages other than English are necessary. CHAPTER 6: FAIR HOUSING PROFILE 196 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 564 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE F. Fair Housing Testing The purpose of fair housing testing is to determine if, and to what extent, discriminatory business practices exist in apartment rental housing and related markets. In response to the recommendation from the previous Al, some jurisdictions have begun to conduct fair housing testing routinely. Other jurisdictions contracted for fair housing testing for the purpose of this Al report in order to provide additional information on potential housing discrimination in their communities. However, it should be noted that since fair housing testing was not conducted consistently and systematically by all jurisdictions, more findings of discriminatory practices in one community that conducts regular fair housing tests cannot be interpreted as having more extensive housing discrimination, compared to other communities that have not conducted testing as frequently. Methodologg Methodologies may vary, but generally, testing involves volunteer testers screened for appropriateness and then trained. Training may include an overview and history of fair housing laws, methodology of testing, and reinforcement of the qualities needed in a tester. Those qualities include objectivity, reliability, flexibility and the ability to maintain confidentiality throughout the project. A practice test and /or role - playing a site visit are also included to assure that testers are fully prepared. The project supervisor will find apartment vacancies by viewing advertisements on Craig's List, For Rent Magazine, other rental guides and online resources. A matched pair of testers, one representing the variable being tested, and the other as a control are then assigned and given their identity for each project. Testing Results Carlsbad: As part of testing conducted in the search for discrimination business practices in the apartment rental housing market, the City of Carlsbad tested for unequal treatment on the basis of sexual orientation in FY 2014 -15. Of the five sites tested, one showed unequal treatment to the potential renter. Chula Vista: Chula Vista tested for discrimination on the basis of race (African American /Caucasian) in FY 2012 -13, FY 2013 -14 and in FY 2014 -15. In FY 2012 -13, 20 percent of sites showed unequal treatment to the African American tester. In FY 2013 -14, two out of five sites showed indication of disparate treatment. In FY 2014 -15 tests were conducted on three sites, and one site showed an indication of disparate treatment based on race. El Cajon: In FY 2013 -14 and in FY 2014 -15, audit tests were conducted in the city of El Cajon for race (African America /Caucasian), disability and sexual orientation. Disparate treatment and /or terms in rental housing were found in at least 30 percent of sites tested for each variable. When testing for sexual orientation, two out of five sites tested showed disparate treatment. Additionally, El Cajon is retesting the five sites where disparate treatment or terms were found in the FY 2013 -14 round of audit tests. 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet CHAPTER 6: FAIR HOUSING PROFILE 197 Page 565 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE One site has been retested (for disability), and found that there is a new manager who is well versed in housing laws as it relates to disability and was willing to allow for modifications (door widening and grab bars in the bathroom). The remaining four sites are pending to be re- tested due to lack of vacancies. Encinitas: In Encinitas, during tests conducted in FY 2012 -13 through FY 2013 -14, two out of three sites showed some disparity in treatment when testing for race; three out of four sites showed disparate treatment when testing for disability; and out of three sites tested, none showed disparate treatment when testing for familial status. At one site the manager showed a definite preference for the tester with children. Escondido: Five sites were tested in Escondido for national origin (Hispanic). Of the five tests, only one showed disparate treatment. The other four were in complete compliance. La Mesa: La Mesa tested for race (African American /Caucasian) in FY 2014 -15, and one out of four sites found disparate treatment and /or terms in rental housing. National City: National City conducted tests at five sites in FY- 2012 -13. The protected class variable tested in this particular study was familial status (families with children). In one of the five sites tested, disparate treatment and /or terms in rental housing were found. Oceanside: Oceanside tested for discrimination in apartment rental housing in FY 2012 -13 and FY 2013 -14. In FY 2012 -13, in ten sites tested for discrimination based on race (African American /Caucasian), four sites showed disparate treatment towards the testers; in FY 2013 -14, in ten sites tested for discrimination based on familial status, two sites showed unequal treatment. San Marcos: In all audit tests conducted in the City of San Marcos between FY 2011 -12 through FY 2013 -14 on the variables of disability and race (African- American /Caucasian), no discriminatory treatment was found. San Diego City: The City of San Diego conducted audit testing in FY 2012 -13 and FY 2013 -14. The following variables were tested in the rental housing market: disability (service animals and accessibility), familial status, race /national origin (African- American /Caucasian, Hispanic /African - American and Asian /Caucasian) and same sex partnerships. When testing for disability in San Diego, it was more likely to find disparate treatment or terms when requesting permission for a service animal in the residence. Additionally, in FY2012 -13, the City conducted testing for discriminatory treatment and biases in property insurance sales, mortgage lending practices, and in the housing sales market. When testing against a Caucasian control tester, it was found that a tester was more likely to experience unequal treatment in the housing sales market as a Hispanic renter (56 percent of sites showed disparate treatment) than as an African - American renter (45 percent of sites showed disparate treatment). Santee: In FY 2014 -15, the City of Santee tested for race and found disparate treatment at one out of four sites. Vista: In the fair housing testing conducted in the City of Vista, between FY 2011 -12 to FY 2013 -14, three variables were tested: familial status, race and disability (10 test sites for each variable). The tests CHAPTER 6: FAIR HOUSING PROFILE 198 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 566 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE found that individuals were slightly more like to be discriminated against on the basis of familial status (4 sites) than for race (2 sites) or disability (1 site). San Diego Urban County: Testing was conducted in the County between FY 2011 -12 to FY 2013 -14, with a total of 40 sites tested for each variable (race, disability and familial status). Disparate treatment was found at 28 percent of sites tested for disability, 25 percent on the basis of race (African American /Caucasian) and at 20 percent on the basis of familial status. A detailed breakdown of tests by jurisdiction and testing variables can be found in Appendix C. G. California Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH) The mission of the Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH) is to protect Californians from employment, housing and public accommodation discrimination, and hate violence. To achieve this mission, DFEH keeps track of and investigates complaints of housing discrimination, as well as complaints in the areas of employment, housing, public accommodations and hate violence. Since 2009, a total of 355 fair housing complaints in San Diego County have been filed with DFEH. The greatest number of complaints were filed in the cities of San Diego, Oceanside and Chula Vista. A single complaint can be filed alleging multiple bases of discrimination and can also involve multiple acts of discrimination. For example, a landlord can discriminate against race and sexual orientation, as well as harass a tenant and unfairly raise his /her rent. The majority of complaints alleged housing discrimination based on: physical disabilities (143 instances), familial /marital status (69 instances), or race /color (58 instances). A total of 512 acts of discrimination were recorded in San Diego County since 2009, with the cities of San Diego (228 acts), Chula Vista (35 acts) and El Cajon (33 acts) having the most number of reported incidents. "Unequal access to facilities /denied reasonable accommodation" was the most often cited act of discrimination (125 instances); but "harassment" (95 instances) and "eviction" (82 instances) were also commonly reported. A detailed breakdown of the number of complaints filed, alleged acts of discrimination, and disposition of fair housing cases by jurisdiction can be found in Appendix C. H. U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) maintains a record of all housing discrimination complaints filed in local jurisdictions. These grievances can be filed on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, disability, religion, familial status and retaliation. From January 1, 2008 to December 31, 2014, 439 fair housing complaints in San Diego County were filed with HUD. About 40 percent of complaints filed were from residents of the City of San Diego. A fair number of complaints were also filed from residents of Chula Vista (nine percent) and El Cajon (eight percent). Overall, disability - related discrimination was the most commonly reported — comprising 47 percent of all cases. Complaints concerning race (14 percent), familial /marital status (12 percent), retaliation (12 CHAPTER 6: FAIR HOUSING PROFILE 199 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 567 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE percent), and national origin (10 percent) were also regularly reported. Over one -half of all complaints filed (58 percent or 253 cases) were deemed to have no cause and another 22 percent (98 cases) were conciliated or settled. A detailed breakdown of the number of cases filed, alleged acts of discrimination, and disposition of fair housing cases by jurisdiction can be found in Appendix C. I. Hate Crimes Hate crimes are crimes that are committed because of a bias against race, religion, disability, ethnicity, or sexual orientation. In an attempt to determine the scope and nature of hate crimes, the Federal Bureau of Investigation's (FBI) Uniform Crime Reporting Program collects statistics on these incidents. To a certain degree, hate crimes are an indicator of the environmental context of discrimination. These crimes should be reported to the Police or Sheriff's department. On the other hand, a hate incident is an action or behavior that is motivated by hate but is protected by the First Amendment right to freedom of expression. Examples of hate incidents can include name calling, epithets, distribution of hate material in public places, and the display of offensive hate - motivated material on one's property. The freedom guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution, such as the freedom of speech, allows hateful rhetoric as long as it does not interfere with the civil rights of others. Only when these incidents escalate can they be considered an actual crime. Statistics compiled by the FBI found that a total of 714 hate crimes were committed in San Diego County from 2007 to 2013. Race -based hate crimes were the most common (44 percent); though, hate crimes motivated by sexual orientation (21 percent), ethnicity (18 percent), and religion (17 percent) were also commonly reported. During the seven -year period from 2007 to 2013, the incidence of reported hate crimes in all of San Diego County was less than one per 1,000 people (0.23 per 1,000 persons). This figure has also substantially declined from a decade earlier (the seven -year period from 1997 to 2003) when the incidence of hate crimes in the County was 0.49 per 1,000 persons. Hate crime statistics varied somewhat from jurisdiction to jurisdiction —with the cities of Solana Beach (zero incidents), Carlsbad (0.05), and El Cajon (0.06) having the lowest incidence rates and the cities of Del Mar (0.48), Santee (0.45), and Oceanside (0.45) having the highest incidence rates. It should be noted that these statistics may also reflect a higher incidence of reporting crime in certain communities, which consistently have very low overall crime rates. J. NIMBYism Many people agree that a variety of housing should be available for people with special needs, such as homeless shelters, affordable housing, and group homes for people with disabilities. However, whether or not these types of housing should be located within their own community is another matter. The following discussion on NIMBYism is not specific to San Diego County and is included below simply to provide context for the analysis of SB 1721 and SB 2 that concludes this chapter. CHAPTER 6: FAIR HOUSING PROFILE 200 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 568 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE The Not- in -My- Back -Yard sentiment (NIMBYism) can serve as the most significant constraint to the development of affordable or even market -rate multi - family housing. NIMBYism describes opposition by residents and public officials alike to additional or different kinds of housing units in their neighborhoods and communities. The NIMBY syndrome often is widespread, deeply ingrained, easily translatable into political actions, and intentionally exclusionary and growth inhibiting. NIMBY sentiment can reflect concerns about property values, service levels, community ambience, the environment, or public health and safety. It can also reflect racial or ethnic prejudice masquerading under the guise of a legitimate concern. NIMBYism can manifest itself as opposition to specific types of housing, as general opposition to changes in the community, or as opposition to any and all development. Community opposition to high- density housing, affordable housing, and housing for persons with special needs (disabilities and homeless) is directly linked to the lack of such housing options for residents in need. In particular, community opposition is typically strongest against high - density affordable housing and group homes for persons with mental disabilities. Community residents who are especially concerned about the influx of members of racial and ethnic minority groups sometimes justify their objections on the basis of supposedly objective impacts like lowered property values and increased service costs. Racial and ethnic prejudice often is one root of NIMBYism, although NIMBY concerns still exist where racial or ethnic differences are not involved. The California legislature has passed various Anti- NIMBYism housing bills to prevent communities from rejecting affordable housing projects, including: ■ SB 1721 - The bill stipulates that a local agency shall not disapprove an affordable housing development project, including agricultural worker housing, or condition approval, including through the use of design review standards, in a manner that renders the project infeasible for development for the use of very low, low- or moderate - income households. ■ SB 2- Expands the Housing Accountability Act, to prohibit localities from denying a proposal to build an emergency shelter, transitional housing or supportive housing if it is needed and otherwise consistent with the locality's zoning and development standards. 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet CHAPTER 6: FAIR HOUSING PROFILE 201 Page 569 FAIR HOUSING ACTION PLAN his chapter builds upon the previous analyses and presents a list of specific actions jurisdictions in the region are planning to undertake in order to address the impediments.

CHAPTER 7: FAIR HOUSING ACTION PLAN 209 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 577 PUBLIC UTREACH AN ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE rom December 2014 through February 2015, the San Diego Regional Alliance for Fair Housing (SDRAFFH) conducted outreach to the community and key stakeholders to inform development of San Diego Regional Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing (AI) for the period of Fiscal Year 2015/2016 to Fiscal Year 2019/2020. This report summarizes the comprehensive outreach process undertaken to build awareness of and engagement in the analysis process across the San Diego region, as well as detailed findings. A.1 Outreach Summary Background The SDRAFFH is the leading voice for fair housing advocacy in the San Diego region; working to eliminate housing discrimination and to ensure equal housing opportunity for all people through leadership, education, outreach, public policy initiatives, advocacy and enforcement. SDRAFFH includes the geographic area of the San Diego region, including the 18 incorporated cities and all unincorporated areas. This includes the HUD entitlement jurisdictions of Carlsbad, Chula Vista, El Cajon, Encinitas, Escondido, La Mesa, National City, Oceanside, San Diego, San Marcos, Santee, and Vista, and the County of San Diego (with the participating jurisdictions of Coronado, Del Mar, Imperial Beach, Lemon Grove, Poway, Solana Beach and the unincorporated areas of the County). The Fair Housing Act specifies that the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development shall administer programs and activities relating to housing and urban development in a manner that affirmatively furthers the policies outlined in 42 USC 3608 / Title VIII of the 1968 Civil Rights Act, Section 808 (e) 5. This responsibility is assigned to HUD - funded grant recipients as well. The Al is a comprehensive review of an entitlement jurisdiction's laws, regulations and administrative policies, procedures and practices. The Al involves an assessment of how these laws, regulations, policies and procedures affect the location, availability, and accessibility of housing, and how conditions, both private and public, affect fair housing choice. The outreach approach focused on engaging the key stakeholders and the general public to educate them on the Al process and outcomes, and to provide the process with qualitative, first -hand experiences and knowledge related to fair housing in the San Diego region's communities. The end result is an adopted Al developed through a rigorous technical process and informed by public involvement and direct experiences from the San Diego region's communities. APPENDIX X: PUBLIC OUTREACH A -1 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 578 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Outreach Goals The overall outreach goal was to educate and engage key stakeholders and the public related to the Al process and outcomes. To do so, the outreach goals included: • Develop an inclusive and expansive database of key stakeholders and interested parties to involve in the process • Create and communicate clear, consistent and understandable explanations and messages about the purpose, process, and desired outcomes for the SDRAFFH and Al • Engage key stakeholders and interest groups early in the process to: • build interest in, commitment to and trust in the process; • develop initial understandings of issue areas, opportunities and constraints across the region and within specific communities; and • extend outreach through their networks to hard -to -reach stakeholders • Apply a selection of targeted communications and public participation activities that meet stakeholders' varying needs and ways of accessing information, and that best inform the technical process • Identify stakeholders' needs and priorities for fair housing at the local and levels to effectively inform the Al Stakeholders The list below represents key stakeholder groups that formed the basis of the outreach database. • Elected officials • Executive staff from local jurisdictions and partner agencies • Housing advocates • Disability advocates • Minority advocates • Real estate industry • Apartment management associations and representatives • Legal aid • Non - profit and social service providers • Neighborhood organizations Outreach Activities The project team implemented a range of outreach activities and tools based on the experiences of the SDRAFFH participating agencies' recommendations and the consultant teams' experience and expertise.

Additionally, participants were encouraged to submit written comments via the comment cards. A total of 81 individuals attended the community meetings. The following summary of findings reflects discussion points from all workshops conducted as noted in the meeting notes, wallgraphics and submitted comment cards.

This also stemmed from the previous point re: Assistance vs. Service animals. City of Encinitas Community Workshop: February 10, 2015 Location: City Hall — Poinsettia Room Fair Housing Educa trop • Need more Fair Housing workshops that reach out to landlords. Landlords need to be aware of their rights and limitations in selecting tenants and removing problem tenants. Landlords need to be aware that Fair Housing services are accessible to them. Home Owners Associations • HOAs can be overly restrictive and need to understand their limitations in enforcing policies. Fair Housing education should be expanded to reach Home Owner's Associations and training in Fair Housing regulations should be provided. Smoke-Free Housing • Smoke -free housing policies are frequent requests in the City. Victims ofDomestic Violence • There is a need for more Fair Housing education and advocacy for victims of domestic violence. Fair Housing training should be used as a tool to help stabilize these individuals in their environment and teach them how to be aggressive renters in the market. It's necessary to provide support for those on the verge of homelessness.

Source: U.S. Department of Justice Federal Bureau of Investigation, 2007 -2013 APPENDIX C: FAIR HOUSING DATA C -23 PROGRESS SINCE 2010 his appendix summarizes and compares key findings contained in the 2010 Al document in order to evaluate the progress toward addressing impediments to fair housing choice. The findings reviewed in this appendix include those that were carried forward from various previous Al documents and incorporated in the 2010 Al. D.1 Regional Impediments from Previous AIs Education and Outreach Impediment: Educational and outreach literature regarding fair housing issues, rights, and services on websites or at public counters is limited. Recommendations: 1. Chula Vista, Coronado, Del Mar, Imperial Beach, Lemon Grove, San Diego, and Solana Beach should provide links to fair housing and other housing resources with current information on their websites. 2. National City, La Mesa and Escondido should consider including detailed information about fair housing on their websites, in addition to the links they currently have to the Center for Social Advocacy. 3. All jurisdictions should consider prominently displaying fair housing information on their public counters. Efforts: Nearly all of the cities in San Diego County have fair housing information readily available for their residents. Chula Vista, Coronado, El Cajon, Encinitas, Escondido, La Mesa, Lemon Grove, National City, Oceanside, Poway, San Marcos, Santee, San Diego (City), San Diego (County), and Vista provide links to fair housing and other housing resources with current information on their websites. The City of Santee displays fair housing information on their public counters. The City of Encinitas also developed an LEP plan, in addition to posting several fair housing posters (English and Spanish) throughout City Hall. The cities of Carlsbad, Imperial Beach, and Solana do not have links to fair housing resources on city websites, and Coronado does not have the most to date information on its website. APPENDIX D: PROGRESS SINCE 2010 D -1 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 665 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Impediment: Many fair housing violations are committed by small "mom and pop" rental operations. As many individual homeowners enter the business of being a landlord by renting out their homes, many may not be aware of current laws. Recommendation: 1. Entitlement jurisdictions should include in the scopes of work for fair housing services to expand outreach to small property owners. Fair housing service providers should coordinate with all entitlement and participating jurisdictions to identify small property owners within their client jurisdictions to specifically target education and outreach materials to this segment of the market population. All entitlement and participating jurisdictions should collaborate with service providers in outreach activities. Efforts: The Carlsbad Housing Agency sponsors fair housing workshops for residents and property owners /managers in order to educate housing providers of fair marketing plans. The City of El Cajon continues to work with the San Diego Regional Alliance for Fair Housing (SDRAFFH) to determine the best ways to target small property owners. In June 2012 and July 2013, the City's fair housing service provider conducted workshops for small property owners. The City of Oceanside held rental property owners workshops on January 12, 2012 with 49 attendees and another on June 11, 2013 to educate 24 owners /managers, including seven "mom and pop" property owners, on fair housing laws and responsibilities. The City of San Diego hosted a total of nine workshops for property owners and landlords during FY 2013 and FY 2014, at no cost to attendees. Beginning in FY 2011 -2012, San Marcos expanded the focus of educational and outreach efforts to "mom and pop" rentals. The City of San Marcos continues to contract North County Lifeline (NCL) to provide landlord education. Lending and Credit Counseling Impediment: Hispanics and Blacks continue to be under - represented in the homebuyer market and experienced large disparities in loan approval rates. Recommendation: 1. All jurisdictions should collaborate with the San Diego Reinvestment Task Force to implement the recommendations contained in the Three Year Plan. 2. All jurisdictions that offer homebuyers programs also consider stepping up outreach efforts in minority communities in order to improve loan origination /approval rates and increase awareness of and education about homeownership opportunities. Impediment: Many of the reasons for application denial, whether in the rental market or in the home purchase market, relate to credit history and financial management factors. Recommendations: 1. Provide findings of this Al and other related studies to the CRI Task Force. 2. All jurisdictions that offer homebuyer programs should continue providing education and outreach on Credit History and Financial Management. 3. Jurisdictions should collaborate with the CRI in the implementation of the Three -Year Plan prepared by the CRI. APPENDIX D: PROGRESS SINCE 2010 D -2 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 666 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Efforts: The County of San Diego offers low- interest deferred payment loans for low- income first- time homebuyers through its Downpayment and Closing Cost Program. This program is available to first -time homebuyers looking to purchase homes in the unincorporated area of San Diego County or in the cities of Carlsbad, Coronado, Del Mar, Encinitas, Imperial Beach, La Mesa, Lemon Grove, Poway, San Marcos, Santee, Solana Beach or Vista. The City of La Mesa previously administered its own First -Time Homebuyer Program, and between FY 2010 and FY 2013, down payment and closing cost assistance was provided to five minority households in the City. HUD approved Homebuyer Counseling was a required component of this program and completion of the 8 -hour seminar, which includes final management curricula, was required prior to the close of escrow. The City of San Marcos has increased referrals and access to HUD - Approved Housing Counseling Agencies. Additionally, the City ensured that this information was part of New First Time Homebuyer education curricula. Efforts to continue to hold HOME Clinics in collaboration with the Housing Opportunities Collaborative and the San Diego County Libraries are underway. The City of Vista allocates CDBG funds annually to support programs that incorporate financial literacy. The City of Chula Vista offers gap financing for first -time low- income homebuyers to purchase eligible properties through its First -Time Homebuyer Program. The City of El Cajon offers two unique programs designed to assist first -time homebuyers with purchasing a new or existing single - family or condominium home: the American Dream and California Dream First -Time Homebuyer programs. The City is currently reviewing opportunities to improve outreach efforts to minorities for these programs. HUD - approved Homebuyer Counseling is a required component of the City's homebuyer programs. El Cajon continues to work with the San Diego Regional Alliance for Fair Housing (SDRAFFH) to explore the possibility of giving a presentation on the findings of the Al to the CRI. The City of Escondido administers the Homebuyer Entry Loan Program (HELP). Brochures for this first -time homebuyer program are available on the City's website in both English and Spanish. The City continues to review opportunities to improve outreach efforts to minorities for this program. However, participation is low overall (not only among minorities) due to HUD requirements like maximum purchase price, and market influences, like buyers with all cash offers. HUD approved Homebuyer Counseling is a required component of the City's HELP. National City offers a First Time Homebuyer Assistance Program for its residents. In 2011, the City began targeting outreach efforts to underrepresented groups and tracking the demographic information of participants in the program. The City of Oceanside provides homebuyer assistance through its CalHome First -Time Homebuyer Program. Between FY 2010 and FY 2013, the City provided 16 loans through this program, 12 of which were made to Hispanic and Black households. In addition, the City referred denied applicants to Habitat for Humanity or Community Housing Works for free Financial Fitness assistance courses APPENDIX D: PROGRESS SINCE 2010 D -3 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 667 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE to help prepare them for any future loan applications. The City also established a computer lab at its Libby Lake Resource Center and coordinated with the Leichtag Foundation to provide assistance services via private web - conferencing. The City of San Diego has been actively supporting the activities of the San Diego Regional Alliance for Fair Housing regarding collaborations with the San Diego City /County Reinvestment Task Force. During FY 2012 to FY 2014, the City of San Diego chaired the Alliance's Subcommittee for Strategic Planning. Additionally, the City continued to support the activities of SDRAFFH with regard to collaboration with the San Diego City /County Reinvestment Task Force. In addition, the San Diego Housing Commission (SDHC) offers deferred loans, homeownership grants, and mortgage credit certificates to first -time homebuyers through its First -Time Homebuyer Program. Housing Discrimination Impediment: Housing discrimination persists throughout the County, which is supported by general literature, statistical data, cases filed with DFEH, and testing conducted in the region. Recommendations: 1. Conduct comprehensive and countywide random testing on a regular basis to identify issues, trends, and problem properties. Expand testing to cover other protected classes, especially those with emerging trends of suspected discriminatory practices. 2. Support stronger and more persistent enforcement activity by fair housing service providers. 3. Expand education and outreach efforts, with specific efforts outreaching to small rental properties where the owners /managers may not be members of the Apartments Association. Impediment: Fair housing service provider contracts with the jurisdictions do not currently allow for random testing or testing audits. Recommendation: 1. Entitlement jurisdictions should consider setting aside funding for fair housing audits in 2011 and every two years thereafter. Specifically, entitlement jurisdictions should consider pooling funds to conduct regional audits, rather than acting individually, and work collaboratively with fair housing service providers to pursue FHIP funds for audits and testing as HUD funding is available. Efforts: See earlier discussions on fair housing outreach and education efforts targeted at small property owners. The San Diego Regional Alliance for Fair Housing (SDRAFFH) recently appointed a Steering Committee to develop a Strategic Plan that is expected to include a coordinated approach to region - wide testing. The City of Carlsbad tested for discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation. In FY 2014 -15, of the five sites tested, one showed unequal treatment to the potential renter. APPENDIX D: PROGRESS SINCE 2010 D -4 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 668 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE The City of El Cajon entered into a contract with a fair housing testing organization and conducted fair housing testing for race at 10 sites during FY 2013 -14. Three out of seven sites showed testers unequal treatment. A second phase was also conducted that same year for disability (6 sites) and two sites showed disparate treatment. The City of Encinitas randomly tested for discrimination on the basis of disability in FY 2011 -12 and on the basis of disability in FY 2012 -13. During both tests, two out of three sites showed disparate treatment. Additionally, in FY 2013 -14, the City randomly tested for discrimination on the basis of familial status. Out of three sites tested, none showed unequal treatment. The City of La Mesa has randomly tested for race in FY 2014 -15, and one out of five sites showed the tester disparate treatment. The City of National City has randomly tested for familial status in FY 2014 -15. Out of the five sites tested, one showed the tester unequal treatment. The City of Oceanside randomly tested for discrimination on the basis of race and familial status in FY 2012 -13 and FY 2013 -14. Each variable was tested at ten sites. Testers were shown disparate treatment at 4 out of 6 sites when testing for race, and at 2 out of 10 sites when testing for familial status. In FY 2013, the City of San Diego conducted 125 random audit tests (60 rental sites, 20 sales sites, 10 mortgage lending tests, 30 disability accessibility tests, and five insurance tests). In addition, a total of 133 random paired fair housing tests were conducted in the categories of disability, color, familial status and national origin in the arena of rental, sales, insurance, lending and accessibility. In FY 2014, 51 random paired fair housing tests were conducted in the categories of national origin, race and sexual orientation in the arena of rental housing. Nearly 40 percent of sites showed unequal treatment towards the testers when testing for race (38 percent) and sexual orientation (36 percent). When testing for national origin, 26 percent (7 out of 20 sites) also showed disparate treatment. Regional outreach included a Spanish and English ratio PSA campaign focusing on disability discrimination and the City of San Diego produced a FH video PSA with a focus on disability discrimination. Legal Aid Society of San Diego (IASSD), the City of San Diego's fair housing service provider, successfully sued a large housing provider who discriminated against persons with disabilities by not having accessible apartment units, as required by law. The lawsuit resolved all issues, resulting in a $275.00 settlement and major retrofits to the building. In addition, LASSD successfully sued a San Diego landlord for sexual harassment of a female tenant, which resulted in the landlord agreeing to use a professional management company for all rental properties. LASSD has also successfully filed several pending complaints with HUD regarding discrimination on the basis of disability and familial status. The agency also regularly uses the conciliation process to successfully resolve discrimination complaints on the basis of disability, which has resulted in accommodations being granted for the benefit of clients. The City of San Marcos has contracted North County Lifeline (NCL) to conduct investigative activities, including on -site inspections, alleged violator interviews, mediation of fair housing and landlord /tenant issues, and fair housing training for housing providers found in violation of fair APPENDIX D: PROGRESS SINCE 2010 D -5 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 669 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE housing laws. The City of San Marcos conducted random housing testing on the basis of discrimination for race in FY 2012 -13 and FY 2013 -14, and in FY 2011 -12 tested for discrimination on the basis of disability. Of the total 15 sites tested, no sites were reported to show unequal treatment. The City of Vista randomly tested for discrimination on the basis of disability in FY 2011 -12. From FY 2012 -2013 to FY 2013 -2014, the City also randomly tested for discrimination regarding race and family size. Disparate treatment was noted when testing for familial status at 40 percent of sites, for race at 20 percent of sites and for disability at 10 percent of sites. Racial and Economic Segregation Impediment: Previous AIs identified patterns of racial and ethnic concentrations are present within particular areas of San Diego County. Revised Recommendations: Work to diversify and expand the housing stock to accommodate the varied housing needs of different groups. 2. Promote equal access to information for all residents on the availability of decent and affordable housing by providing information in multiple languages (to the extent feasible) and through venues and media that have proven success in outreaching to community, particularly those hard -to -reach groups. 3. Work collaboratively with local housing authorities and affordable housing providers to ensure affirmative fair marketing plans and deconcentration policies are implemented. Impediment: Due to the geographic disparity in terms of rents, concentrations of Section 8 voucher use has occurred. Revised Recommendations: 1. Work to expand the affordable housing inventory and implement policies that would discourage concentration of affordable housing units within individual jurisdictions. 2. Promote the Housing Choice Voucher program to rental property owners. With guaranteed income from HUD, the Housing Choice Vouchers should be an attractive option given the current depressed market conditions. 3. Work collaboratively with local housing authorities and affordable housing providers to ensure affirmative fair marketing plans and deconcentration policies are implemented. 4. Continue to implement the Choice Communities Initiative and Moving Forward Plan by the San Diego Housing Commission to expand locational choices for voucher users. The Housing Commission should also explore other mechanisms to deconcentrate the use of vouchers. Efforts: The City of Carlsbad provides information on fair housing and affordable housing at City facilities and on its website. Bilingual staff is available at facilities and interpretation services are utilized on as- needed basis. Additionally, the City has a wide variety of City regulated affordable housing provided under an inclusionary housing ordinance that target various income levels. As a APPENDIX D: PROGRESS SINCE 2010 D -6 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 670 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE result of its inclusionary housing ordinance, Carlsbad has a wide variety of City regulated affordable housing distributed throughout the entire jurisdiction— allowing Section 8 clients to locate affordable and available rentals in all areas of Carlsbad and further reducing the concentration of low and lower income households in the City. The City continues to maintain their payment standards at 110 percent of the HUD - published FMRs for studios, 1 bedroom, and 2 bedrooms unit expanding the availability of housing options in Carlsbad's jurisdiction. The cities of El Cajon and Escondido use available housing funds to expand their supplies of affordable housing and improve existing housing. Additionally, El Cajon encourages multilingual outreach targeted at hard -to -reach groups. Escondido has utilized available housing funds to expand its supply of affordable of housing and has a wide variety of housing distributed throughout the City. Both El Cajon and Escondido require affirmative fair housing marketing plans for developers and managers of affordable housing. National City also requires an affirmative fair marketing plan for every rental rehabilitation and new construction project in the City. The City of Encinitas has created a Limited English Proficiency Plan and Fair Housing Posters. The City of La Mesa provides information and referrals to the Housing Choice Voucher /Section 8 Program administered by the County to all callers /visitors who seek rental assistance. A link is provided on the City's website to the County's rental assistance programs. Affordable apartment developments within the City are geographically distributed and promote fair housing principles. The City of Oceanside has expanded the Section 8 Voucher Administrative Plan to address racial segregation. In addition, the City utilizes Go Section 8 Software for ease of access to a wider geographic rental market and, in January 2012, the City hosted a new and interested owner workshop in conjunction with the City of Carlsbad and the City of Encinitas. The City of Oceanside has made efforts to reduce racial segregation and linguistic isolation through a variety of community events. City staff host bridging events merging segregated neighborhoods in an effort to minimize or eliminate gang boundaries (that are not only neighborhood based but also racially motivated), address linguistic needs and improve communication and relationships between previously rival neighborhoods, build trust among residents and increase community connectedness. Residents are encouraged to cross neighborhood boundaries and attend events in communities outside their immediate neighborhoods. LASSD continues to work with the City of San Diego and the San Diego Housing Commission (SDHC) to develop a strategy for deconcentration of Housing Choice Vouchers. Additionally, nearly 10,000 multilingual brochures (available in English, Spanish, Vietnamese, Chinese and Tagalog) were distributed from FY 2013 to FY 2014 to promote equal access to information. Regional outreach also included a Spanish and English radio PSA campaign. The City of San Marcos began reviewing concentrations of Section 8 voucher use in FY 2011 -2012. The City of Santee has significantly broadened the variety of housing types and costs available within the community. Additionally, affordable apartment developments financially- assisted by the City are widely marketed, promote fair housing principles, and are evenly geographically distributed. The City of Vista's Inclusionary Housing Program encourages deconcentration. APPENDIX D: PROGRESS SINCE 2010 D -7 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 671 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Housing Options Impediment: Housing choices for persons with disabilities are limited. Recommendation: 1. All jurisdictions should continue their efforts to expand the variety of available housing types and sizes. In addition to persons with disabilities, senior households, families with children, farmworkers, and the homeless, among others, can also benefit from a wider range of housing options. Impediment: None of the jurisdictions have adopted a universal design ordinance. Recommendation: 1. If formal Universal Design ordinances are cost prohibitive, jurisdictions could consider encouraging, but not requiring, universal design principles in new housing developments (i.e. San Diego County's current practice). 2. All jurisdictions with a residential rehabilitation program (regardless of funding sources) should specifically include ADA- compliant upgrades in their programs. Jurisdictions could also consider modifying their housing rehabilitation programs to make financial assistance for accessibility improvements available for renters, as well as homeowners. Efforts: Most of the region's 19 jurisdictions, including Carlsbad, Chula Vista, Coronado, Escondido, La Mesa, National City, Oceanside, Poway, Santee, San Diego (City), San Diego (County), San Marcos, Solana Beach, and Vista have explicit recognition of their obligation to reasonably accommodate the housing needs of residents in the Municipal Code. Since 2011, the City of Carlsbad has allocated over $9 million to affordable housing projects for seniors, disabled seniors, farm workers, homeless families with children and low income households including youth leaving foster care. In addition, the City has allocated $164,000 in Housing Trust funds for a Home Repair Program that may be used for improvements to assist those with disabilities. Carlsbad has previously considered a universal design ordinance but deemed it not cost effective for new developments. The City's rehabilitation program also specifically allow for improvements that enhance accessibility. The City of Chula Vista's Community Housing Improvement Program allows for improvements that enhance accessibility. The City of El Cajon provided $4.5 million in funding for a project that added 49 units of new construction targeting very -low income seniors. All units are adaptable for disabled accessibility. The City's fair housing service provider is tasked each year with creating and maintaining a list of accessible housing in the City. The City has determined that the adoption of a universal design ordinance is not financially feasible. The Community Development Department requires ADA where indicated in the Building Code and whenever federal funds are being used. However, the City encourages universal design features when feasible for a project. ADA upgrades are routinely provided in the City's rehabilitation programs. APPENDIX D: PROGRESS SINCE 2010 D -8 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 672 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE The City of Encinitas' rehabilitation program specifically allows for improvements that enhance accessibility. The City of Escondido recently assisted in the development of a new 60 -unit development for very low- income seniors. The City has a wide variety of affordable housing in the City for seniors and families with children, including many residential care facilities and transitional units. The City ensures that all affordable projects provide reasonable accommodation to persons with disabilities and federally funded projects are required to meet accessibility and adaptability standards. The City's Community Development Department also requires ADA compliance where indicated in the Building Code and whenever federal funds are being used. ADA upgrades are provided for in the City's new rehabilitation program. While the City is not considering a Universal Design Ordinance at this time due to the availability of housing for persons with disabilities, the City does encourage Universal Design Features in a project. La Mesa's Community Development Department requires ADA compliance where indicated in the Building Code and whenever federal funds are being used. ADA upgrades are routinely provided in the City's rehabilitation programs. In 2011, the Lil Jackson Senior Housing community opened in Oceanside, providing 90 very low - and low- income units to seniors. The City also negotiated a Development Agreement for Mission Cove, a housing project to bring 288 multi - family and senior units with universal design. The City's rehabilitation program also specifically allow for improvements that enhance accessibility. The San Diego Housing Commission maintains an Affordable Housing Resource Guide that includes regional resources as well as an affordable rental housing list specifying housing for disabled people within the City. The County of San Diego also provides a similar database of affordable rental housing and services throughout the County that is accessible to persons with disabilities. LASSD successfully sued a large housing provider — which received federal funding — for discrimination against persons with disabilities by not having accessible apartments, as required by law. This resulted in a large settlement as well as a major retrofit, which has increased the supply of accessible housing to persons with disabilities. In addition, in the City of San Diego, Universal Design Guideline compliance is a requirement of all Opportunity Fund applications, DDAs and OPAs and the San Diego Housing Commission meets with all developers to review universal design standards on all proposed projects. The County of San Diego also promotes Universal Design in new developments. The City of San Marcos recently conducted a feasibility study for universal design ordinance implementation. However, no ordinance was adopted. The City of Santee's Municipal Code (Chapter 17.10) provides for a wide range of housing (residential care facilities, congregate care facilities, single -room occupancy dwellings, limited and general group care facilities & transitional and support care facilities). Additionally, the Municipal Code (Chapter 17.06.055) provides for reasonable accommodation /residential accessibility. The City's rehabilitation program also specifically allow for improvements that enhance accessibility. The City has not adopted a universal design ordinance governing construction or modification of homes using design principles that allow individuals to remain in those homes as their physical needs and APPENDIX D: PROGRESS SINCE 2010 D -9 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 673 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE capabilities changes. In light of current and proposed planning policies and zoning regulations, the City believes that it has mitigated any potential constraints to the availability of housing for persons with disabilities. The City of Vista's rehabilitation program specifically allows for improvements that enhance accessibility. The City has also entered into development agreements for affordable housing projects that incorporate universal design. Housing Conditions Impediment: Lead -based paint hazards often disproportionately affect minorities and families with children. Recommendation: 1. All jurisdictions that offer homebuyer and rehabilitation programs should include lead -based paint testing as part of their homebuyer and residential rehabilitation programs (regardless of funding sources). Impediment: Substandard housing conditions tend to impact minority households disproportionately. Recommendation: All jurisdictions that offer rehabilitation programs should pursue the following: 1. Offer housing rehabilitation programs, either directly or through the County, and make lead - based paint testing as part of their housing rehabilitation programs. 2. Consider modifying the housing rehabilitation programs to make financial assistance for accessibility improvements available for renters as well as homeowners. Efforts: The City of Carlsbad requires lead -based paint (LBP) assessment and resolution, when needed, in all loan programs. LBP testing and remediation are also required for El Cajon's rehabilitation programs (properties built before 1978). Additionally, LBP testing is conducted for First Time Homebuyer (FTHB) properties (built before 1978) and clearance must be obtained before the City will participate in the funding. Escondido has similar requirements for its homebuyer program. In addition, LBP testing and remediation for properties built before 1978 are required for the City's new rehabilitation program. National City's Housing Inspection Program has a lead testing and education component. In FY 2011, the City of Oceanside conducted 20 LBP inspections on mostly senior residences —not impacting children. The City has also implemented a code enforcement program in neighborhoods that are disproportionately affected by LBP hazards to increase education and referral to testing programs for families. The City of San Diego continues to support and encourage the ongoing program offered by the San Diego Housing Commission (SDHC) for LBP hazards in low- income housing units. San Marcos implements LBP testing in its residential rehabilitation program. Additionally, the City conducts annual review achievements of additional testing and education efforts. The City of Santee requires LBP assessment and resolution in all of its loan programs and Vista's housing rehabilitation program includes LBP education and testing requirements. APPENDIX D: PROGRESS SINCE 2010 D -10 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 674 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE The City of El Cajon offers both mobile home and single - family rehabilitation programs that routinely include accessibility improvements. The City will explore re- opening its multifamily rehabilitation program which is currently dormant. Following the dissolution of redevelopment authorities statewide, home rehabilitation loan programs were eliminated in the City of Escondido. However, the City began a new rehab program in 2015, which includes lead -based paint testing and funding for other improvements to correct substandard conditions for homeowners. The City also is supporting funding rehabilitation of multi - family rental developments through its RFP process. Through its Housing Program, National City has contracted the Enforcement of Health and Safety Regulations lead testing. Improved Regional Collaboration and Reporting Impediment: Only minimal successes in regional collaboration had been documented. Recommendation: 1. The fair housing service providers should continue to collaborate and work to affirmatively further fair housing in the region. 2. A single reporting system should be used by the fair housing service providers to compile consistent fair housing data that facilitates analysis of trends and patterns. 3. The Fair Housing Resources Board (FHRB) should also continue to function as a collaborative to coordinate fair housing services for the region. 4. Entitlement jurisdictions should annually review its scope of work to address service gaps. Impediment: Fair housing service providers are supposed to be using HUD's standard reporting categories in reporting fair housing statistics. Recommendation: 1. Entitlement jurisdictions contracting for fair housing services should work with the fair housing service providers to develop one uniform reporting method and consistent reporting categories to report fair housing data. Impediment: While education and outreach efforts are a clear priority of all agencies involved, a previous review of sub - recipient contracts, Action Plans, CAPER reports, and annual accomplishment reports indicated a lack of quantifiable goals, objectives, and accomplishments to gauge success or progress. Recommendation: 1. Fair housing service providers should publicize the outcomes of fair housing complaints to encourage reporting. 2. The City of Oceanside should establish outcome -based performance measures. Remaining jurisdictions should continue to identify specific quantifiable objectives and measurable goals related to furthering fair housing. APPENDIX D: PROGRESS SINCE 2010 D -11 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 675 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE Impediment: Fair housing services vary across the region based on the agency providing the services and the work scopes of each sub - recipient contract. Recommendation: 1. Entitlement jurisdictions should continue collaborating with fair housing services providers to ensure an adequate level of service is available to all residents. 2. Entitlement jurisdictions should also evaluate service gaps and establish appropriate levels of funding for the provision of these services. 3. The Fair Housing Resources Board should regularly update its service area map to provide the public with clear information on service providers and types of services available. 4. Entitlement jurisdictions and the Fair Housing Resources Board should establish a collaborative relationship with the 2 -1 -1 San Diego Hotline. 5. Fair housing service providers should work with 2 -1 -1 San Diego to educate and train their phone operators in identifying and directing fair housing issues to the appropriate service providers. Fair housing service providers should be listed among the community service organizations that 2 -1 -1 can refer people to. Impediment: While tenant /landlord disputes are not fair housing issues in general, providing dispute resolution services may prevent certain situations from escalating to discrimination issues. Recommendation: 1. Entitlement jurisdictions should ensure tenant /landlord dispute resolution services are provided to complement the fair housing services. The region's other fair housing service providers should consider adding the tenant /landlord mediation services currently offered by NCL to the array of housing services they already provide. Impediment: Fair housing service providers should actively pursue Fair Housing Initiative Program (FHIP) funds. Recommendations: 1. All entitlement jurisdictions are encouraged to select organizations that meet QFHO and FHO criteria for fair housing services. 2. All service providers for fair housing are encouraged to seek FHIP funds to provide fair housing testing services. Efforts: The San Diego Regional Alliance for Fair Housing (SDRAFFH— formerly the Fair Housing Resource Board) encourages coordination among service providers through its membership. All providers are invited and encouraged to become members and all providers are currently members. Collaboration between the jurisdictions and service providers is also encouraged. The cities of Carlsbad, Chula Vista, La Mesa, National City, Oceanside, Poway, San Marcos, Vista and both the City and County of San Diego all report identifying service gaps with their service providers and are currently working to revise their scopes. APPENDIX D: PROGRESS SINCE 2010 D -12 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 676 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE The cities of Carlsbad, Chula Vista, El Cajon, Encinitas, Escondido, La Mesa, National City, Oceanside, San Diego, San Marcos, Santee and Vista, as well as their respective fair housing service providers, are active members of SDRAFFH, which meets regularly to collaborate on fair housing issues and topics. Members of SDRAFFH are currently working together to develop a uniform reporting system. In 2012, the City of San Marcos began incorporating a "provider cooperation" clause in its scope of work, encouraging fair housing providers to share resources and information. In addition, the City of San Diego actively supports the activities of the SDRAFFH with regard to collaboration with the San Diego City /County Reinvestment Task Force and to further address this impediment. From FY 2012 to FY 2014, the City chaired the Alliance's Subcommittee for Strategic Planning, which meets eight times per year (the Alliance meets quarterly). Included in these meetings is the review of a single reporting system to compile regional fair housing activities and testing information, to facilitate the analysis of trends and patterns. In FY 2014, SDRAFFH established a regional website and initiated a radio PSA campaign during the month of April 2014 (Fair Housing Month). Members of SDRAFFH are also working together to develop uniform informational materials and to ensure that the public can reliably reach a fair housing service provider (through 2 -1 -1, Housing Opportunities Collaborative's website and other ways) when needed. Providers are working together and have agreed to assist all persons in need of assistance, regardless of where that person resides. The City of San Diego meets monthly with its two fair housing service providers (LASSD and Housing Opportunities Collaborative) in order to evaluate service gaps and to ensure an adequate level of service is available to all residents. Additionally, the City has established a Fair Housing Hotline to ensure its fair housing services are available to the community. The City has also contracted with LASSD, who operates an independent fair housing hotline staffed by a 12- person call center, to received fair housing complaint intake phone calls from residents. The City of San Marcos funds 211 to provide information on fair housing services as well as other needs. Tenant /landlord disputes are addressed by the region's current fair services providers. In FY 2013, LASSD submitted a FHIP application with the support of the City of San Diego. LASSD was awarded a three -year Private Enforcement Initiative FHIP grant by HUD in 2014. In 2015, LASSD was additionally awarded an Education Outreach Initiative FHIP grant from HUD. D.2 Jurisdiction - Specific Impediments Carried Over from Previous AIs Jurisdictions in San Diego County have established various land use policies, zoning provisions, and development regulations that may impede the range of housing choices available. The following section outlines the recommendations made to each specific jurisdiction in the 2010 Regional Al in order to address their respective impediments.

APPENDIX D: PROGRESS SINCE 2010 D -21 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 685 SAN DIEGO REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF IMPEDIMENTS TO FAIR HOUSING CHOICE 3. Amend the Zoning Ordinance to permit emergency shelters by right in at least one zone to comply with State law 4. Amend its Zoning Ordinance to include provisions for transitional housing, transitional housing, and SRO pursuant to State law. Efforts: The City established formal procedures for obtaining reasonable accommodation. The City also amended the Zoning Ordinance in 2014 to address emergency shelters, transitional housing, and supportive housing. Vista Recommendation: 1. Amend Zoning Ordinance to address "pyramid zoning" issues. 2. Amend the conflicting Zoning Ordinance (Chapter 18.31 and 18.06.160) sections concerning the provision of second dwelling units. 3. Amend density bonus provisions to be in compliance with State law. 4. Amend the Zoning Ordinance to make explicit provisions for manufactured housing units in single - family residential zoning districts. 5.

The City also amended its Zoning Ordinance (Chapter 18.31 and 18.06.160) in 2012 to address inconsistent provisions regarding second dwelling units and to specifically accommodate manufactured housing. In addition, the City amended the Zoning Ordinance in 2012 to address emergency shelters, transitional and supportive housing. However, the City's updated provisions permit only transitional housing facilities for battered women and children (serving six or fewer clients) in all residential zones. All other transitional and supportive housing facilities are permitted only in the City's RM zone. Vista's treatment of transitional and supportive housing does not fully comply with all of the requirements of SB 2 and the zoning ordinance will need to be further amended in order to maintain consistency with State law. APPENDIX D: PROGRESS SINCE 2010 D -22 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 686 CITY OF CHULA VISTA File #: 15 -0173, Item #: 5. City of Chula Vista Staff Report RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA ACCEPTING DONATIONS AND GRANT FUNDS IN THE AMOUNT OF $21,223.67 FROM MULTIPLE DONORS AND GRANTORS FOR COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH THE COMMUNITY FUN RUN, CITYWIDE AQUATIC AND RECREATION PROGRAMS AND FACILITIES, AND AMENDING THE FISCAL YEAR 2014/2015 RECREATION BUDGET TO REFLECT THE APPROPRIATION OF THESE DONATED, SPONSORSHIP AND GRANT FUNDS (4/5 VOTE REQUIRED) RECOMMENDED ACTION Council adopt the resolution. SUMMARY Multiple donors and grantors are donating funds to the Recreation Department for costs associated with the Community Fun Run, citywide aquatic and recreation programs and facilities. Today's action asks the City Council to appropriate these donated funds. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The Development Services Director has reviewed the proposed activity for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that the activity is not a "Project" as defined under Section 15378(b)(4) of the State of California CEQA Guidelines because the activity consists of a accepting funds for a recreation activity that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment. Therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State of California CEQA Guidelines, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is required. BOARD /COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION Not Applicable. DISCUSSION The 711 annual Community Fun Run ( "Fun Run "), a 5K run or walk community event, is being held on May 16, 2015 at the U.S. Olympic Training Center. This event has been presented annually by the City since 2009, organized and managed by the Recreation Department. Sea World LLC dba Aquatica San Diego ( "Aquatica'), SeaWorld's waterpark, is the Community Fun Run's Title Sponsor for the third consecutive year and is donating $5,000 in sponsorship fees to be used by the City to pay for the initial, up -front costs associated with the Community Fun Run, including printing of fliers, production of participant t- shirts, advertising and other miscellaneous costs. A additional sponsor for this year's Fun Run is North Island Credit Union, who is donating $500. These funds will also be used to pay for the up -front costs associated with the Fun Run. No funds are budgeted in the Recreation Department's budget for this community event. The Friends of Chula Vista Parks & Recreation is donating $7,123.67 from proceeds from the 2014 Community Fun Run to the Recreation Department for programming and the purchase of equipment City of Chula Vista Page 1 of 4 Printed on 5/7/2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet powered by Le9age 687 File #: 15 -0173, Item #: 5. and supplies for various aquatic and recreation facilities, sufficient funds for which are not included in the Department's budget. The USA Swimming Foundation is providing $5,000 in scholarship grant funds to the Recreation Department's Aquatics Program, which will serve as a "Make a Splash" Grant Local Partner for the provision of a Read to Swim Program. This program is a quality, multi - level, learn -to -swim program offered during the current fiscal year which will expand opportunities for at -risk students to use the lifelong skill of learning how to swim to expand fitness and recreational opportunities. This Read to Swim Program combines literacy and swimming lessons, with an overall goal of providing free swimming lessons to Chula Vista residents who cannot otherwise afford them while encouraging reading at the same time. The grant funds from USA Swimming Foundation will provide 270 children, ages six to sixteen, with ten swim lessons after writing a book report. With this swim program, which will utilize the Department's existing Learn -To -Swim curriculum, children will begin with water acclimation and progress through levels of instruction and skill acquisition to pre - competitive stroke skills, with a student to teacher ratio of no greater than 6:1. The Funeraria del Angel Humphrey, a Dignity Memorial provider, provides compassionate care and an array of services to families of all faiths in the Chula Vista area, is donating $500 toward the delivery of the annual Norman Park Senior Center Health Fair. The donation will provide marketing materials, food supplies and handouts for the event. The Chula Vista Garden Club is a club that meets at Norman Park Senior Center has donated $50 towards funds for operations at the center. A local resident, Gerardo Avalos, donated $250 to the Recreation Department by the Friends of Chula Vista Parks and Recreation for the Holiday Suit Drive which provides free swimsuits to less fortunate children who cannot afford a swim suit and would like to participate in swim lessons. These free swimsuits are used primarily for the Elementary Learn to Swim program so that no child is left behind and would not otherwise be able to participate in the swim lessons because they could not afford a suit. The drive also continues to the community at -large during the months of December - March. The Friends of the Chula Vista Parks and Recreation received a donation on behalf of Freda Scholl, a donation in the amount of $300. Freda was a long -time user of the Chula Vista Pools for 30 years. Freda primarily enjoyed the water aerobics program, so her family wanted to provide a donation to the water aerobics program in her honor. Freda was almost 80 years old when she stopped swimming at the pools. The Recreation Department is receiving a donation in the amount of $500 from Sharp Healthcare to provide for additional services and programs at the Norman Park Senior Center. Chula Vista Police Activities League has granted the Recreation Department $2,000 to provide registration discounts, supplies and equipment for Girl's only basketball camps and leagues at Parkway Community Center for underprivileged youth. DECISION -MAKER CONFLICT Staff has reviewed the decision contemplated by this action and has determined that it is not site City of Chula Vista Page 2 of 4 Printed on 5/7/2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet powered by Le9age 688 File #: 15 -0173, Item #: 5. specific and consequently, the 500 -foot rule found in California Code of Regulations section 18704.2 (a)(1), is not applicable to this decision. Staff is not independently aware, and has not been informed by any City Council member, of any other fact that may constitute a basis for a decision maker conflict of interest in this matter. LINK TO STRATEGIC GOALS The City's Strategic Plan has five major goals: Operational Excellence, Economic Vitality, Healthy Community, Strong and Secure Neighborhoods and a Connected Community. Entering into partnerships with outside donors and sponsoring organizations such as these allow the Department to expand special events, programs and services such as the Community Fun Run, Norman Park Senior Center Health Fair and Read to Swim Program, increasing economic vitality and community engagement as well as providing diversified activities for youth through seniors that promote a healthy lifestyle and community. These partnerships also enhance the Recreation Department's stature and role as the "Heart of the Community" and serve to encourage and develop strong and secure neighborhoods and a connected community by providing diverse recreational opportunities that bring families together and foster civic pride through comprehensive communication strategies and cultural and recreational programming. CURRENT YEAR FISCAL IMPACT Approval of this resolution will result in an appropriation of a $21,223.67 to the Recreation Department's supplies and services budget. Multiple donors and grantors are the source of the funding; therefore there is no net fiscal impact to the General Fund. ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT The proceeds from the Community Fun Run will be used to offer non - sustainable programs for the current fiscal year. Since these programs are not funded through the Recreation Department's budget, the continuation of such will be dependent on the availability of funding outside of the budget. The Read to Swim Program is totally supported by the funds donated by USA Swimming and will continue to be offered in subsequent years entirely dependent upon the availability of additional offsetting funding. The Norman Park Senior Center Health Fair is an annual budgeted event. Donated funds are used to enhance the scope of the fair and increase programming opportunities for health and wellness. There is no on -going impact to the budget. The Holiday Suit Drive is dependent on sponsor funds and donations so there is no on -going impact to the budget. If donations are not received, the program will not be sustained. The Water Aerobics program is a budgeted program in the Recreation Department, and the donated funds will be used for additional supplies for the program.

City of Chula Vista Staff Report QUARTERLY FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2015 RECOMMENDED ACTION Council accept the report. SUMMARY The Finance Department prepares quarterly financial reports for the General Fund that reflect budget to actual comparisons, projected revenues and expenditures, and highlight major variances that may require additional action or changes. The quarterly financial reports are in compliance with Section 504 (f) of the City Charter, which requires that quarterly financial reports be filed by the Director of Finance through the City Manager. A projection for the Development Services Fund is also included in this report. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The Development Services Director has reviewed the proposed activity for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that the activity is not a "Project" in accordance with Section 15378(b)(4) of the State CEQA because it involves only acceptance of the quarterly fiscal report, therefore it is governmental fiscal activity which does not involve any commitment to any specific project and will not result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines the activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is necessary. BOARD /COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION Not applicable. DISCUSSION General Fund Overview The Finance Department prepares quarterly financial reports for the General Fund that reflect budget to actual comparisons, projected revenues and expenditures, and highlight major variances that may require additional action or changes. The quarterly financial reports are in compliance with Section 504 (f) of the City Charter, which requires that quarterly financial reports be filed by the Director of Finance through the City Manager.

The following chart summarizes the projections for June 30, 2015 based on revenue and expenditure trends through the third quarter of fiscal year 2014/15 for the City's General Fund. The Amended Budget column includes all Council approved changes to the fiscal year 2014/15 adopted budget that have taken place through the end of the third quarter ending March 31, 2015 with one exception. Earlier this year, City Council approved an appropriation of $1.8 million for a capital improvement project, Telegraph Canyon Road Erosion Repair. Staff is currently looking at alternative funding options for this project and has therefore been removed from the Amended Budget and Projected columns. Staff will return to City Council to take formal action on this issue but for purposes of this report, staff is assuming that an alternative funding source will be identified. Finally, the Amended Budget column reflects City Council approved budget appropriations with a net impact including funding for the purchase of a property on Third Avenue, costs related to propositions on the November 2014 ballot, and funding for the Districting Commission. The Projected column lists the fiscal year 2014/15 projections for revenues and expenditures as of June 30, 2015. Notes 1. The Amended Budget and Projected totals do not include prior year appropriations for capital improvement projects and other encumbrances totaling $3.7 million that were carried forward to the fiscal year 2014/15 budget. These expenditure impacts are already reflected in the fund balance as of July 1, 2014 and are therefore not included in the above table. 2. On March 3, 2015 City Council approved an appropriation of $1.8 million from reserves to establish a capital improvement project, Telegraph Canyon Road Erosion Repair. Staff is evaluating an alternative funding source for this project, therefore, this appropriation and projected costs are not reflected in the above table. The City's financial outlook appears stable through the end of the third quarter. Staff is projecting revenues of $137.8 million and expenditures of $139.4 million, for a projected positive impact of $0.2 million. As discussed above, this projection excludes the projected costs associated with the Telegraph Canyon Erosion Repair CIP.

This decrease is due to projected decreases in Utility User's Tax, Revenue from Other Agencies, Charges for Services, and Transfers In revenues that are projected to be $1.8 million lower than the current budgeted level. This decrease is largely offset by a combined projected increase of $1.7 million in Franchise Fees, Property Taxes, Transient Occupancy Taxes, Use of Money and Property, and Other revenues. Staff is projecting $0.7 million in savings in General Fund departments based on year to date expenditure trends. Most City departments are on track to end the year with expenditure savings. Expenditure savings largely reflect greater than anticipated salary savings. Combined, the projected revenues and expenditures result in a net positive impact of $0.2 million as stated above. Details of projected General Fund revenues and expenditures can be found in Attachment 1 (Third Quarter Financial Report). Development Services Fund Overview The Development Services Department Enterprise fund consists of Land Development, Development Planning, the DSF Front Counter and the Building Division. Based on trends through the third quarter, staff is conservatively projecting to end the fiscal year with a projected deficit of $0.9 million for the current fiscal year, which would put the Development Services Fund in an overall deficit. Projections for the same time last fiscal year indicated a similar trend. It is important to note that the nature of the work in the enterprise fund is beginning to change from one of processing planning documents (deposit account based) to one of processing building and improvement plans (flat fee based). This change in activity may require modification to the existing composition of staff in Development Services Fund in order to remain responsive to the type and quantity of work being processed. The table below compares the budgeted revenue and expenditures to the projected revenues and expenditures for June 30, 2015. Expenditures are currently on trend to exceed revenues. Staff has been making adjustments to respond to this shortfall. Additional adjustments in Fiscal Year 2016 will be proposed to further mitigate impact to the Development Services Fund.

This transparency supports City Initiative 1.3.1. - "Foster public trust through an open and ethical government."

Third Quarter Financial Report Staff Contact: Angelica Aguilar, Finance Department City of Chula Vista Page 4 of 4 Printed on 5/7/2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 696 OVERVIEW This financial report summarizes the City's General Fund financial position for fiscal year 2015 through March 31, 2015 and projecting out to June 30, 2015. The purpose of this report is to provide the City Council, Management and the Citizens of Chula Vista an update on the City's fiscal status based on the most recent financial information. ECONOMIC HIGHLIGHTS The Nation - The following national economic occurrences are notable as of the Third Quarter': Economic growth is forecast to average 3% over the next 2 years. This is despite slow growth and currency devaluations throughout much of the rest of the developed world. The U.S. appears to be an exception in terms of economic stability at this point in time. • The effect that the significant the drop in oil prices has had on inflation will wane as inflation is projected to climb above the 2% level as oil prices recover. • Unemployment rates are projected to go down to 5% by yearend driven by a projected growth rate of 3% for the national economy. The State - The major changes forecast for the State are as followsZ: • California is projected to benefit from the demand created from the rest of the Nation's forecasted growth rate as increased demand in various economic sectors is expected to improve the State's unemployment situation. • Real personal income growth is estimated to be 4.2% in 2015 and forecast to be 4.6% and 3.7% in 2016 and 2017, respectively. • The unemployment rate will hover around 6.5% through the balance of 2015. Unemployment will fall through 2016 and will average approximately 5.5% and is projected to be at 5.1 % in 2017. 'Source: UCLA Anderson Forecast, March 2014 ZSource: UCLA Anderson Forecast, March 2014 San Diego Region - The major changes reported in October for the Index of Leading Economic Indicators for San Diego County are as follows 3: • Leading Economic Indicators for San Diego County rose 1.3 percent in March. It was the third straight strong gain for the USD Index and the third month in a row where all six components were positive. • The seasonally adjusted local unemployment rate fell to 5.1 percent in March, which was down from 5.4 percent in February and 7.1 percent in March. Online help wanted advertising increased from almost 128,000 for the first quarter of 2014 to more than 150,000 this year, a gain of nearly 18 percent. • Consumer confidence advanced slightly by 0.9 percent, which is important since consumer spending is typically two - thirds or more of economic activity. • Residential units authorized by building permits were up significantly for the third consecutive month. Previously, residential units authorized increased by only 1.5 percent in the first quarter compared to the year before. Single- family permits led the way with a gain of 18.6 percent, while multi - family units were down 7.2 percent.

Continue to provide for the delivery of quality services 2. Maintain and enhance service delivery as the community grows in accordance with the General Plan 3. Minimize or eliminate the need to raise taxes and fees because of temporary revenue shortfalls 4. Establish the reserves necessary to meet known and unknown future obligations and ability to respond to unexpected opportunities. The following table reflects the audited General Fund reserves as of July 1, 2014 as well as the projected General Fund reserves for June 30, 2015. Notes: 1. The Amended Budget and Projected totals do not include prior year appropriations for capital improvement projects and other encumbrances totaling $3.7 million that were carried forward into the fiscal year 2014/15 budget. These expenditure impacts are already reflected in the fund balance as of July 1, 2014 and are therefore not included in the above table. 2. On March 3, 2015 City Council will consider two appropriations from reserves - an appropriation of $1.8 million to establish a capital improvement project, Telegraph Canyon Road Erosion Repair and $0.3 million for the purchase of a commercial property along Third Avenue. These appropriations are not reflected in the Amended Budget column as the appropriations occurred after the end of the Second Quarter and are outside of this reporting period. However, due to the projected impact to operating reserves they are included on this table. QUARTERLY FINANCIAL REPORT FISCAL YEAR 2015: THIRD QUARTER Page 2 of 8 The City's financial outlook continues to be stable through the end of the Third Quarter. Staff is projecting revenues of $137.8 million and expenditures of $139.4 million, for a projected positive impact of $0.2 million. This excludes the $1.8 million for the Telegraph Canyon Erosion Repair CIP that was approved by Council and funded from General Fund Operating reserves. Staff is currently looking at alternative funding options for this project and has therefore been removed from the Amended Budget and Projected columns. Staff will return to City Council to take formal action on this issue but for purposes of this report, staff is assuming that an alternative funding source will be identified. The Amended Budget column reflects City Council approved budget appropriations with a net impact of approximately $0.4 million - these appropriations included funding for the purchase of a property on Third Avenue, costs related to propositions on the November 2014 ballot, and funding for the Districting Commission. However, it is anticipated that the General Fund will actually end the fiscal year with a small surplus. Overall, General Fund revenues are tracking close to budget and are projected to be $0.1 million lower than the amended budget. This decrease is due to projected decreases in Utility User's Tax, Revenue from Other Agencies, Charges for Services, and Transfers In revenues that are projected to be $1.8 million lower than the current budgeted level. This decrease is largely offset by a combined projected increase of $1.7 million in Franchise Fees, Property Taxes, Transient Occupancy Taxes, Use of Money and Property, and Other revenues. Staff is projecting $0.7 million in savings in General Fund departments based on year to date expenditure trends. Most City departments are on track to end the year with expenditure savings. Expenditure savings largely reflect greater than anticipated salary savings. Combined, the projected revenues and expenditures result in a net positive impact of $0.2 million as stated above. 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 698 Reserves - July 1, 2014 (audited) Revenues & Transfers In Expenditures & Transfers Out Less Telegraph Canyon CIP $14.3 $137.9 ($140.1) $1.8 $14.3 $137.8 ($139.4) $1.8 Projected Surplus /Deficit $0.4 $0.2 Projected Fund Balance for June 30,2015 $13.9 $14.6 Percentage of Operating Budget 10.1% 10.6% Notes: 1. The Amended Budget and Projected totals do not include prior year appropriations for capital improvement projects and other encumbrances totaling $3.7 million that were carried forward into the fiscal year 2014/15 budget. These expenditure impacts are already reflected in the fund balance as of July 1, 2014 and are therefore not included in the above table. 2. On March 3, 2015 City Council will consider two appropriations from reserves - an appropriation of $1.8 million to establish a capital improvement project, Telegraph Canyon Road Erosion Repair and $0.3 million for the purchase of a commercial property along Third Avenue. These appropriations are not reflected in the Amended Budget column as the appropriations occurred after the end of the Second Quarter and are outside of this reporting period. However, due to the projected impact to operating reserves they are included on this table. QUARTERLY FINANCIAL REPORT FISCAL YEAR 2015: THIRD QUARTER Page 2 of 8 The City's financial outlook continues to be stable through the end of the Third Quarter. Staff is projecting revenues of $137.8 million and expenditures of $139.4 million, for a projected positive impact of $0.2 million. This excludes the $1.8 million for the Telegraph Canyon Erosion Repair CIP that was approved by Council and funded from General Fund Operating reserves. Staff is currently looking at alternative funding options for this project and has therefore been removed from the Amended Budget and Projected columns. Staff will return to City Council to take formal action on this issue but for purposes of this report, staff is assuming that an alternative funding source will be identified. The Amended Budget column reflects City Council approved budget appropriations with a net impact of approximately $0.4 million - these appropriations included funding for the purchase of a property on Third Avenue, costs related to propositions on the November 2014 ballot, and funding for the Districting Commission. However, it is anticipated that the General Fund will actually end the fiscal year with a small surplus. Overall, General Fund revenues are tracking close to budget and are projected to be $0.1 million lower than the amended budget. This decrease is due to projected decreases in Utility User's Tax, Revenue from Other Agencies, Charges for Services, and Transfers In revenues that are projected to be $1.8 million lower than the current budgeted level. This decrease is largely offset by a combined projected increase of $1.7 million in Franchise Fees, Property Taxes, Transient Occupancy Taxes, Use of Money and Property, and Other revenues. Staff is projecting $0.7 million in savings in General Fund departments based on year to date expenditure trends. Most City departments are on track to end the year with expenditure savings. Expenditure savings largely reflect greater than anticipated salary savings. Combined, the projected revenues and expenditures result in a net positive impact of $0.2 million as stated above. 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 698 General Fund Revenues — General Fund revenues are projected to be slightly below budget by $0.1 million. This is due to projected lower Utility User's Tax, Revenue from Other Agencies, Charges for Services, and Transfers In revenues that are projected to be approximately $1.8 million lower than the budget. This decrease is largely offset by a combined projected increase of $1.7 million in Franchise Fees, Property Taxes, Transient Occupancy Taxes, Use of Money and Property, and Other revenues. Major variances include: • A $0.8 million increase in Franchise Fee revenues that reflect the updated franchise agreement for waste hauling services negotiated earlier this year. • A net decrease of $0.7 million in Utility Users Taxes based on the new rate structure and revised projected collections. • A $0.5 million decrease in Revenue from Other Agencies largely reflects projected shortfalls in revenues related to decreased participation in various regional Police Task Forces. • A net decrease of $0.4 million in Charges for Services resulting from projected lower City fee collections for recreation programs, jail services reimbursements, passport and distressed property management fees. • A net increase of $0.3 million in Transient Occupancy Taxes (TOT) due to better than projected paid hotel stays within the City.

HdL Companies, the City's Sales Tax consultant, recently provided data for the last quarter in calendar year 2014. They report that the change in sales tax receipts between fourth quarter calendar year 2014 and fourth quarter calendar year 2013 increased by 2.9% in Chula Vista. General Consumer Goods represents the largest major industry group for Sales Tax generation. In this category, the change in Sales Tax increased by 2.5% in Chula Vista when compared to the same quarter for 2013 thus approaching the projected 2.8% growth rate on a Statewide level. Overall, Sales Tax revenues are now tracking on budget based on them most recent trend. However, Sales Tax in Lieu revenue is projected to fall short by $135,000 as was reported in the Second Quarter. The following chart represents actual sales tax collections since fiscal year 2010/11 and the projection for fiscal year 2014/15.

Property tax is the City's second largest revenue source, representing 20.8% of projected General Fund revenues for fiscal year 2014/15. As reported in the First and Second Quarters, the City received information from the County regarding assessed property values (AV) for the City of Chula 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 699 Vista after the adoption of the budget. The adopted budget reflected 4% growth in AV however, based on the County's most recent report the City should experience 6% growth in AV. In a Council action earlier this fiscal year, the City Council approved an amendment to Property Tax revenues to reflect this change. Property Tax revenues were increased by $0.6 million when compared to budget. Revenue trends through the end of the Third Quarter indicate that Property Tax revenues will increase by an additional $0.3 million over the current budgeted level.

Beginning in 2005/06, the majority of VLF revenues for each city grew essentially in proportion to the growth in the change in gross assessed valuation. Due to this change in the formula by the State, the majority of the City's VLF revenues fluctuate with changes in assessed values in the City. VLF revenue projections have been revised to reflect the change in city -wide assessed valuation projected for fiscal year 2014 -15. As discussed above, assessed property values (AV) for the City of Chula Vista are projected to grow by 6% as opposed to the 4% reflected in the adopted budget. City Council approved an amendment to VLF Tax revenues to reflect this QUARTERLY FINANCIAL REPORT FISCAL YEAR 2015: THIRD QUARTER Page 4 of 8 change. VLF revenues were increased by $0.4 million when compared to the adopted budget. VLF revenues are projected to slightly exceed the budget as of the end of the Third Quarter.

The UUT on natural gas services is $0.00919 per therm and $0.00250 per kilowatt on electricity services, which equates to approximately a 1 % tax. The projection for Utility Users Taxes has been revised downward by $0.7 million from the current budget in order to reflect the new decreased rate structure and the level of anticipated collections for this revenue based on the revised rate structure. Staff will continue to monitor this revenue source in the future in order to develop a revised trend based on the new fee structure.

General Fund Expenditures as of 3/31/2015 As part of the Third Quarter Financial review, staff prepared projections for 6/30/2015 based on current expenditures and trends. As noted on the following table, most departments are on track to stay within their budgets and are projecting expenditure savings in the current fiscal year. Overall a $0.8 million net savings in General Fund expenditures is projected. The majority of these savings are estimated to be realized within the departments' Personnel Services QUARTERLY FINANCIAL REPORT FISCAL YEAR 2015: THIRD QUARTER Page 6of8 expenditure category. The two departments that are exceptions to this trend are: • Non - Departmental — The Non - Departmental budget reflects a $1.2 million overage when compared to budget. The overage is mainly comprised of budgeted salary savings of $0.8 million, which actual salary savings are being realized within individual department budgets. Another contributing factor to the projected overage in the Non - Departmental budget is the unanticipated cost related to the Bayfront development of approximately $0.2 million. • Fire Department — The Fire Department is projecting a $27,000 overage in operating expenses due to personnel costs that are expected to exceed the current fiscal year budget. The Department will offset these expenditures with unanticipated revenues resulting in no net fiscal impact to the General Fund. • Human Resources — The Human Resources Department is projecting a $7,000 overage in operating expenses due to an increase in hiring related costs. The Department will continue to monitor expenditures and make adjustments as needed. General Fund Projections by Department for June 30, 2015 ..

City of Chula Vista Staff Report INVESTMENT REPORT FOR THE QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2015 RECOMMENDED ACTION Council accept the report. SUMMARY Transmitted herewith is the City's investment report for the quarter ended March 31, 2015. To meet the reporting requirements set forth in the California Government Code Sections 53600 et seq. and the City of Chula Vista Investment Policy and Guidelines, a separate report was distributed to the City Council in April. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The Development Services Director has reviewed the proposed activity for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that the activity is not a "Project" in accordance with Section 15378(b)(5) of the State CEQA Guidelines because it involves only acceptance of the Quarterly Investment Report; therefore it is an organizational or administrative activity of government that will not result in a direct or indirect physical change in the environmental; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines the activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is necessary.

The European Central Bank (ECB) initiated an asset purchase program similar to the Federal Reserve's ( Fed's) quantitative easing (QE) policies that concluded last year, and the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) seemed comfortable leaving the Fed Funds rate at current levels for the near future. • The yield on 10 -year U.S. Treasuries fell for the fifth consecutive quarter, which resulted in the longest period of quarterly gains since 1988. • After trending up briefly, oil prices headed toward the lower end of recent ranges. • Driven by a drop in Treasury yields, fixed - income market performance was generally positive for the quarter. Returns were dependent on both maturity and sector. Economic Snapshot • U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) grew at a pace of 2.2% during the fourth quarter. The GDP report showed that household spending rose to a nine -year high and exports were strong. These positive trends were offset by growth in inventories, which were weaker than previously expected. • The U.S. labor market continued to improve, as the unemployment rate fell from 5.6% in December to 5.5% in March. This was the lowest rate since mid -2008. • Consumer confidence for the first quarter reached its highest level since 2007, as lower gasoline prices and an increase in personal income helped to generate more disposable income. However, consumers slowed their pace of spending during the quarter, causing a lackluster retail sales report. • New -home sales rose nearly 8% in February, marking their highest level since early 2008 and serving as a bright spot in a mixed bag of recent housing- market data. © 201?MKA3AWWW4hMent LLC At its March meeting, the FOMC removed the word "patient" from its previous statement, indicating that the current target range for the Federal funds rate will be appropriate until the FOMC is "reasonably confident" that inflation is increasing toward its 2% objective. The statement also implied that economic growth has been weaker than it was earlier in the year. A Reuters poll released at the end of March showed that 17 of 21 primary securities dealers expect the Fed's first interest rate hike to occur in September 2015, at the earliest, with only four dealers expecting the first hike to occur in June 2015. Sector Performance • The yield curve flattened modestly over the quarter as yields on longer maturities declined more than yields on shorter maturities. This market movement and its positive impact on longer durations combined to provide performance in excess of initial yields. • Yields between Treasury and Federal Agency securities in short and intermediate maturities widened modestly during the quarter. This caused the performance of the Agencies to suffer relative to Treasuries. • Corporate securities slightly outperformed government obligations with similar maturities because of higher initial yields and relatively unchanged yield spreads. • While still generating positive performance, mortgage- backed and asset - backed securities trailed other high - quality investment options for the quarter. • Yields on money market securities (primarily commercial paper and certificates of deposit) remained at elevated levels, making them attractive options for short- maturity investment needs.

City of Chula Vista Staff Report CONSIDERATION OF AMENDMENTS TO THE CITY'S GENERAL PLAN AND THE OTAY RANCH GENERAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN, INCLUDING A NEW DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT INVOLVING PORTIONS OF THE OTAY RANCH FREEWAY COMMERCIAL PLANNING AREA 12 A. RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA CONSIDERING THE ADDENDUM (IS- 12 -03) TO FEIR 02 -04; APPROVING AMENDMENTS TO THE CITY'S GENERAL PLAN AND THE OTAY RANCH GENERAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN TO REFLECT LAND USE AND POLICY CHANGES FOR APPROXIMATELY 35 ACRES WITHIN THE OTAY RANCH PLANNED COMMUNITY, INCLUDING ASSOCIATED TEXT, MAPS, AND TABLES B. ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA APPROVING A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA, VILLAGE II TOWN CENTER, LLC, AND SUNRANCH CAPITAL PARTNERS, LLC, FOR THE FREEWAY COMMERCIAL NORTH PORTION OF OTAY RANCH PLANNING AREA 12 (FIRST READING) RECOMMENDED ACTION Council conduct the public hearing, adopt the resolution and place the ordinance on first reading. SUMMARY Baldwin & Sons, LLC ( "Applicant" or "Developer ") is proposing amendments to the City of Chula Vista General Plan (GP) Land Use and Transportation (LUT) Element and the Otay Ranch General Development Plan (GDP) to change approximately 28.7 acres of Retail Commercial to Mixed -Use Residential and Park on an approximately 35 -acre vacant site. The proposed GP and GDP amendments would allow for a transit - supportive mixed use development that would add up to 600 multi - family residential units (with a minimum of 15,000 square feet of commercial retail) and a new 2 -acre urban park within the Freeway Commercial North portion of Otay Ranch Planning Area 12 (see Locator Map, Attachment 1). The project also includes a Development Agreement which ensures the timely development of hotels totaling 300 rooms on the northerly most 6.3 -acre portion of the 35 -acre site (remaining commercial and is not part of the proposed amendments), the minimum 15,000 square feet of commercial retail, and the urban park by the developer ( "Freeway Commercial North" or "FC -2" ( "Project ")). On July 9, 2012 the Applicant filed applications to process all of the subject items. Freeway Commercial Prior Approvals City of Chula Vista 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 1 of 16 Printed on 5/7/2015 powered by Legistar Page 720 File #: 15 -0150, Item #: 8. In 2001, a GDP amendment separated the Eastern Urban Center (EUC) and Freeway Commercial (FC) components into separate planning areas, comprising Planning Area (PA) 12. In September 2004 the Freeway Commercial SPA Plan and Tentative Map were adopted on the approximately 120 -acre Freeway Commercial site, and entitled approximately 1,214,000 sf of commercial uses: 867,000 sf on the approximate 85 -acre FC -1 ( "Freeway Commercial South ") site, and 347,000 sf on the approximate 35 -acre FC -2 ( "Freeway Commercial North ") site. The Freeway Commercial SPA Plan identifies FC -1 and FC -2 sites separately because of different ownerships. In 2006, the Otay Ranch Town Center Mall was constructed on FC -1, and in 2007 a SPA amendment was approved which raised the total commercial area allowed on FC -1 (by 93,000 sq. ft. from 867,000 sq. ft. to 960,000) to accommodate another department store. Today, the FC -2 site remains vacant and undeveloped. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The Development Services Director has reviewed the proposed Project for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that the project was covered in the previously adopted Final Environmental Impact Report for the Otay Ranch Freeway Commercial Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plan - Planning Area 12 ( "FEIR 02 -04 ") (SCH #1989010154). The Development Services Director has determined that only minor technical changes or additions to this document are necessary and that none of the conditions described in Section 15162 of the State CEQA Guidelines calling for the preparation of a subsequent document have occurred; therefore, the Development Service Director has prepared an addendum to FEIR 02 -04. The findings of the Addendum (see Attachment 4) are further summarized in the Environmental Section on Page 6 of this report. BOARD /COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION On April 22, 2015 the proposed Project was presented to the Planning Commission. After considering the Project, a motion was made to recommend that the City Council consider the Addendum to FEIR 02 -04, approve amendments to the General Plan and Otay Ranch General Development Plan, and an associated Development Agreement. The Planning Commission initially voted 2- 2 -2 -1. The motion failed because there was not a majority vote for approval. A second motion was then made that City Council deny the Project with acknowledgment that Planning Commissioner Fuentes and Planning Commissioner Gutierrez previously recommended approval of the Project. This motion, recommending that City Council deny the Project, carried 4- 0 -2 -1. DISCUSSION Location, Existing Site Characteristics, and Ownership City of Chula Vista 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 2 of 16 Printed on 5/7/2015 powered by LegistarT"^ Page 721 File #: 15 -0150, Item #: 8. The Freeway Commercial SPA Plan area is generally located south of Olympic Parkway, north of Birch Road, east of State Route 125 and west of Eastlake Parkway (see Locator Map, Attachment 1). This amendment is limited to the FC -2 portion of the SPA Plan located between Olympic Parkway and the existing Otay Ranch Town Center. This portion of the SPA Plan is currently vacant and generally comprised of flat graded pads with an existing road, Town Center Drive, bisecting the site in a north /south direction. FC -2 includes approximately 35 acres under two ownerships, Village II Town Center, LLC and SunRanch Capital Partners, LLC. 2. Project Description The Project amends existing GP (LUT element) and GDP commercial designated land use on approximately 28.7 acres of the 35.0 -acre FC -2 site to implement up to 600 multi - family dwelling units, 15,000 square feet of ancillary commercial, and a 2 -acre highly amenitized public park. Commercial entitlements and land use designation for the residual 6.3 acres located at the northwest portion of FC -2 will remain unchanged and will accommodate two hotels with at least 300 total rooms. The proposed GP and GDP amendments would support subsequent detailed planning to create a unified, walkable, mixed -use plan for the FC -2 district of Otay Ranch Planning Area 12. The Project is intended to enhance living, working, shopping and transit options in the area. A proposed Development Agreement includes certain mutual benefits for the City and Applicant from the proposed Project, as further described in item 3 below, and the Analysis section of this report. 3. Proposed Amendments and New Development Agreement Following is a brief summary of the proposed amendments to the General Plan and Otay Ranch GDP. Chula Vista General Plan: Amend LUT Element's applicable text, tables, and exhibits to reflect changes in land use designations as necessary to implement the additional 600 residential units as well as additions in parkland areas. New policies are also proposed to reflect the transit - supportive mixed use project. The proposed land use changes are as follows: Change 26.7 acres of Commercial Retail to Mixed Use Residential, and 2.0 acres of Commercial Retail to Parks & Recreation. Otay Ranch GDP: Amend applicable text, tables, and exhibits to reflect changes in land use designations as necessary to implement up to 600 residential units as well as additions in Community Purpose Facilities (CPF), and parkland areas. New policies are also proposed to reflect the mixed use project. City of Chula Vista 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 3 of 16 Printed on 5/7/2015 powered by LegistarT"^ Page 722 File #: 15 -0150, Item #: 8. The GDP follows the same proposed land use changes as the GP, including the change of 26.7 acres of Freeway Commercial to Mixed Use, and 2.0 acres of Freeway Commercial to Park. The new policies are further refinements of the new GP policies. Development Agreement: The proposed Development Agreement provides the assurance for two hotels totaling 300 rooms to be constructed; allows for a 4.6 acre park requirement to be met through the construction, programming and maintenance of a high ly- amenitized 2 -acre urban park that is valued at or greater than 4.6 acres of park; and dedicates right of way and construction easements for completion of the South Bay Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) line (see Attachment6). ANALYSIS 1. Chula Vista General Plan Existing Conditions /Past Designations The existing GP includes a description of the area, existing conditions, the vision and various policies (starting on page LUT -284) for the entire 120 acres as a regional serving Retail Commercial center. The vision includes the provision of both local and regional - serving retail commercial and entertainment uses. The existing policies remain applicable to the Otay Ranch Town Center mall (FC -1) area. The existing General Plan identifies the Freeway Commercial North 35 -acre site (FC -2) as being part of the 120 -acre Freeway Commercial site, currently designated as Commercial Retail. As noted earlier, the 960,000 sq. ft. in the 85 -acre Otay Ranch Town Center Mall (FC -1) site is mostly developed, with approximately 317,000 sq. ft. (or 33 percent) remaining to be developed. The northerly 35 -acre site (FC -2), with approximately 347,000 sq. ft. of retail capacity is undeveloped and has been designated for retail commercial since the Otay Ranch was originally approved to the City in 1993. The total remaining retail capacity for both sites is 664,000 sq. ft. General Plan Amendment Considerations This 664,000 sq. ft. of retail capacity is situated within the larger EastLake activity corridor that contains substantial additional commercial use concentration spanning from EastLake Village Walk in the north to the developing Millenia project on the south. Previous Commercial lands studies (in early 2013) have indicated that the corridor contains an over - supply of community and regional - serving commercial use. These planning and market conditions have influenced the absorption of the FC -1 remaining capacity and the FC -2 site has not been fully developed as a regional commercial site. The applicant has proposed a mixed use project on the FC -2 site that would retain approximately 215,000 sq. ft. (about 64 %) of the 347,000 sq. ft. of commercial capacity. The proposed net reduction of 132,000 sq. ft. City of Chula Vista Page 4 of 16 Printed on 5/7/2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 723 File #: 15 -0150, Item #: 8. commercial would result in 449,000 sq. ft. of capacity remaining on FC -1 & FC -2 sites. In order to determine if the proposed reduction and remaining 449,000 sq. ft. provide sufficient capacity, staff required the applicant to do a current Commercial Lands Analysis (CLA). The results of the CLA demonstrates that there remains an overage of approximately 93,000 sf of retail commercial capacity beyond demand at build -out within the larger "trade area" evaluated in the CLA. The findings of the CLA along with the mixed use dynamics and compatibility between the FC -1 and FC -2 site(s) support the proposed amendments. Commercial Market Considerations & Commercial Lands Analysis (CLA) The applicant was required to prepare a Commercial Lands Analysis (CLA) to study the potential impacts of the Project on the City's supply of existing and planned commercial development area (see Appendix D of Attachment 3). The CLA studied a 4 -mile "trade area" surrounding the site. The study looked at both the incremental (i.e the delta between the existing and planned commercial at build -out) demand and supply of commercial lands within the trade area. The key findings of the CLA particular to the Freeway Commercial North project are as follows: • The trade area currently experiences an extremely high amount of General Merchandise sales, suggesting that it is already over - saturated with "big -box" stores. • The FC -1 Otay Ranch Town Center mall still contains 317,000 square feet of developable area that can accommodate department stores and other "big -box" retailers. • There are other locations in the trade area, such as Millenia, zoned to accommodate the type of retail that is currently in the market ( "medium box "), generally 20,000 - 50,000 square feet. • At build -out the incremental demand for retail space within the trade area is estimated at 1,930,000 sq. ft. A total of 2,355,000 sq. ft. is currently planned or in the pipeline in the trade area (including the 347,000 sq. ft. of retail for the project as currently proposed). This would result in an over - supply of retail space in the amount of 425,000 square feet. With approval of the proposed project, including the 15,000 square feet of retail proposed, the supply of retail space would be reduced to 2,023,000 square feet. • With the existing over supply of 425,000 square feet and subtracting the reduction of 332,000 square feet from the proposed project, the trade area would still be projected to experience an over - supply of retail space totaling 93,000 sq. ft. at build out. Staff has reviewed the CLA and concurs with its conclusions. The proposed project would reduce approximately 132,000 square feet of commercial (the hotels will utilize approximately 200,000 square feet of the commercial entitlement) from the FC -2 site to accommodate up to 600 multi - family residential units and a 2 -acre urban park. The City still has adequate remaining commercial square City of Chula Vista Page 5 of 16 Printed on 5/7/2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet powered by Le9age 724 File #: 15 -0150, Item #: 8. footage within the FC -1 site, and other future sites within the trade area - Addendum and Infrastructure /Service Considerations The previously graded project site is currently served by existing infrastructure. No upgrades or changes to existing infrastructure would be necessitated by the proposed GP /GDP changes to allow mixed use development. As noted below, the graded site is bordered by Olympic Parkway, Eastlake Parkway, and SR -125. The change in use would result in fewer vehicle trips generated by the project, compared to the existing commercial designation for the site. Outlined below is an overview of how existing infrastructure would adequately serve project. Water Resources: The sizing of the existing 16 -inch water line in Olympic Parkway, 20 -inch line in Eastlake Parkway, and 12 -inch line in Town Center Drive, and 12 -inch lines within FC -1 are adequate to support the proposed modifications and, therefore, no changes to the approved project water system as analyzed in the FEIR are necessary as a result of the proposed modifications (Dexter Wilson 2014). Additionally, the proposed modifications would comply with the City of Chula Vista Guidelines for water conservation, including the use of recycled water for landscaping and implementation of additional water conservation measures such as hot water pipe insulation, pressure reducing valves, and water efficient dishwashers. A water supply assessment was approved for the project on April 1, 2015, documenting that there is an assured long term supply of water for the project. The approved water supply assessment indicates the project as proposed would result in an incremental increase of water demand of 173 acere feet beyond what was estimated in the 2010 Otay Water District Water Resources Master Plan. Wastewater: The project is consistent with FEIR Mitigation Measures 5.12 -11 through 5.12 -13, which require the applicant to demonstrate adequate capacity in the Poggi Canyon sewer line. The sewer technical study (Dexter 2014) demonstrates that there is adequate sewer capacity in the existing 8 inch line that serves the site. The existing 8 -inch gravity sewer line is adequate to convey this projected total flow. Moreover, the proposed project does not require additional reaches of the Poggi Interceptor to be upgraded in the future. Traffic: The proposed modifications would result in fewer trips than analyzed in the traffic analysis. A traffic analysis has been conducted to evaluate the potential traffic impacts associated with the proposed modifications (Chen Ryan 2015). The FC -2 site would generate approximately 7,506 daily trips, which is lower than the entitled land use trip generation of approximately 12,145 daily trips for the FC -2 site. Since the proposed modified land uses would generate less traffic than the entitled land uses, there would be no additional traffic impacts associated with the proposed modifications. Therefore, no new significant impacts would occur beyond what is analyzed in the FEIR. As stated above, no new significant impacts would occur from the proposed project, therefore, an Addendum has been prepared. City of Chula Vista 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 6 of 16 Printed on 5/7/2015 powered by LegistarT"^ Page 725 File #: 15 -0150, Item #: 8. Schools: Residents expressed concerns of overcrowding within existing schools. Chula Vista Elementary - The proposed project is anticipated to generate approximately 180 students within the Wolf Canyon attendance area. Most of the project was annexed into CVESD's CFD 1 in 1993. This property will be assessed an annual tax pursuant to the mitigation agreement and Rate and Method of Apportionment for CFD 1.This CFD was formed to cover the costs of the District's capital facilities required to serve the development areas. That portion of the project not already annexed in CFD 1 will have the option to annex into the CFD or pay the mandated State school fee. This is a per square -foot fee that would be assessed on the properties prior to building permit Issuance. Sweetwater Union High School District - The proposed project is anticipated to generate approximately 52 middle school students and 121 high school students. The project is currently within the EastLake Middle School and Olympian High School attendance areas. Both schools are at capacity and the Freeway Commercial Project will generate additional need for new schools. All eastside schools are at capacity and closed to new intradistrict transfers. The district has plans for a new middle school and a new high school potentially within Village 8 West and Village 11, respectively. The SUHSD also formed their own CFD 1 which most of the Freeway Commercial Project was annexed into in 1993. The property annexed into CFD 1 will be assessed an annual tax pursuant to the mitigation agreement and Rate and Method of Apportionment for CFD 1. The property outside of CFD 1 will have the option of annexing into the CFD or paying the State mandated school fee. Parking: Residents also expressed concerns regarding the provision of adequate parking for the proposed project that would not impact surrounding neighborhoods. Parking requirements are addressed at a SPA Plan level and will be required as part of the subsequent SPA Plan amendment to implement the proposed Project. The Project is anticipated to utilize the standard parking requirements that are typical of Otay Ranch villages. The SPA Plan Amendment, which will require City Council approval, will establish the parking requirements for each of the different land uses that can potentially locate in the project. Furthermore, the Master Precise Plan, which also will require City Council approval, will demonstrate how those parking requirements will be met. Parks The proposed project park requirement is 4.6 acres. In accordance with provision of the Park Land Dedication Ordinance (PLDO) and the proposed Development Agreement, allows for a 4.6 acre park requirement to be met through the construction, programming and maintenance of a highly - amenitized 2 -acre urban park that is valued at or greater than 4.6 acres of park. The 2 -acre urban City of Chula Vista Page 7 of 16 Printed on 5/7/2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet powered by Le9age 726 File #: 15 -0150, Item #: 8. park is a public park, and will be constructed and maintained similar to the urban park that is proposed in the Eastern Urban Center. Proposed General Plan Amendments The proposed mixed use Project would add up to 600 multi - family for sale and rental units and implements a vision of a 24 -hour lifestyle center. Other similar plans in the region such as the Westfield Mall at University Town Center have done this. As proposed, the Chula Vista General Plan (GP) would provide the revised vision and policy direction for the planning of Freeway Commercial North (FC -2). The FC -2 site is proposed to have new mixed use residential with ancillary commercial and an urban park. These new proposed land uses necessitates the crafting of a new objective and supportive policies that address: Uses, Intensity, and Design aspects of the proposed project as well as its relationship to FC -1. The new policies also provide clear guidance for the subsequent preparation of the Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plan Amendment, which will implement the proposed Project. The proposed amended vision of the GP for this area is that the focus area provides both local and regional- serving retail commercial and entertainment uses as well as high density mixed -use residential. The High Density /Mixed Use Residential in the northerly portion of this area promotes walkability, reduce vehicle miles traveled (VMTs), and decrease traffic impacts through the pedestrian activation of Town Center Drive and close proximity between the hotels, park, retail commercial, residential uses, and the adjacent transit. The new objective and key policies that relate directly to design and land use are listed below. Objective: • Create a high - quality mixed -use, transit supportive development within Freeway Commercial North (FC -2) with hotels, commercial retail, park, and high- density residential uses through a cohesive, coordinated design that integrates well with the Freeway Commercial South (FC -1) shopping center. Policies: • Multi- family density is intended at the lower range of the Mixed Use Residential category and is envisioned to provide both for -sale and rental products. The distribution of uses within the Mixed Use Residential is to be predominantly residential with ancillary retail commercial that is intended to primarily serve the nearby residences, and hotel and park patrons. • The FC -2 site is envisioned as low to mid -rise generally ranging between 3 -5 stories in height. • Provide attractive and appealing design treatment on all sides of the project site with landscaping, hardscape, architectural features and enhanced elevations, and amenities that are aesthetically City of Chula Vista Page 8 of 16 Printed on 5/7/2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet powered by Le9age 727 File #: 15 -0150, Item #: 8. coordinated with the surrounding land uses. • The public park should be a high ly- amenitized urban park that is accessible both visually and physically to the surrounding land uses and thoroughfares, and serves local residents, as well as hotel and shopping center patrons, and the public at large. • The design of Town Center Drive should promote a pedestrian orientation while accommodating the necessary vehicular demands of the FC -2 area, and its function as the northerly entrance to the FC -1 Otay Ranch Town Center. • Provide safe, comfortable and easily identifiable pedestrian crossing locations, routes and signage to the southerly Otay Ranch Town Center BRT station to promote use by hotel patrons and residents. The Project is consistent with proposed GP policies listed above and existing GP goals and policies that reinforce the coordination and provision of balanced land uses (e.g. residential, commercial, park), building and pedestrian design features that promote quality urban design, and the provision of public facilities (like the park) to serve residents and visitors. This is consistent with many of the Planning Factors, Objectives and Policies Outlined in Section 7.0 of the LUT Element such as: • Balanced Land Uses - "A balance of land uses - residential; employment; commercial; recreational ... provided at the appropriate intensity, location, and mix. Benefits include: reduced commute times; improved air quality; higher sales tax revenues; increased mobility options." • Urban Design & Form - "Establishing and reinforcing Chula Vista's urban design and form is necessary to ensure the desired character and image of the City is protected and enhanced as the City grows and develops over time." • Compatible Edge Transitions - "Mixed use areas will inherently have higher levels of activity and intensity than solely residential neighborhoods. Both the pattern of mixed use areas and individual project designs must be sensitive to edge transitions." • Enhancing Community Image - "It is created by both natural and man -made features, such as views; open space, city entryways; primary or secondary gateways, streetscapes; buildings; parks; and plazas." The mix of hotels, high- density residential and commercial in a mixed -use format, a 2 -acre urban park, located in close proximity to one another, and a planned BRT route promotes walkability and "smart growth" development. The hotels, urban park, and residential units will also activate the commercial uses along Town Center Drive; encourage walking and transit use; and reduce automotive dependency. The proposed mix use residential with higher density multi - family and ancillary commercial uses located along Town Center Drive adjacent to the Otay Ranch provides a City of Chula Vista Page 9 of 16 Printed on 5/7/2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 728 File #: 15 -0150, Item #: 8. compatible transition between the FC -2 site and the Town Center mall (FC -1) to the south. The activities of the mall are compatible with the pedestrian- oriented activities envisioned for the mixed use project as higher- density residential are proposed adjacent to and within walking distance of the mall. The planned BRT route is conveniently located between and serves patrons and residents of the FC -1 and FC -2 sites. Residents, park and hotel users on the FC -2 site have easy and convenient access to the FC -1 mall and vice - versa. The ancillary commercial uses in the proposed Project, while serving the hotels, residents and park users, are complimentary to the uses in the mall and provide additional shopping opportunities for patrons of the mall. The placement of an urban park fronting Town Center Drive creates a pedestrian- oriented focal point within Freeway Commercial North. The current southerly terminus of Town Center Drive is adjacent to a main pedestrian walkway within the Town Center Mall and provides for a primary pedestrian link between Freeway Commercial North and South. At the SPA Plan level, in accordance with the GP and GDP, the Applicant will provide pedestrian features such as enhanced pavement, trellises, seating areas, and low monument signage surrounding the urban park that will accentuate a pedestrian- oriented focal area within Freeway Commercial North. The comprehensive list of all the proposed GP policies is located in Appendix A of Attachment 3. A subsequent SPA Plan amendment is necessary and will be required to show consistency with the new objective and associated policies. 2. Otay Ranch GDP The Otay Ranch GDP provides a vision and direction for the planning of the Freeway Commercial area, including the FC -2 subarea. The vision of the GDP for this area, as amended, is that Freeway Commercial North (FC -2) will provide hotels and high density residential in a mixed -use urban character setting that includes ancillary commercial uses and an urban park. Hotels are a permitted use in the existing SPA Plan for both the South (FC -1) and North (FC -2) subareas. Because the proposed Development Agreement ensures that hotels will be constructed in FC -2, the proposed GDP amendments identify hotels as a required part of FC -2 in conjunction with the other uses as described above. A similar revision is not being made in FC -1 because there is no requirement or assurance that hotels would be constructed on the FC -1 site. Key new policies are added to the Otay Ranch GDP to ensure the quality of development anticipated with the FC -2 project. They include the following: • Orient hotels and high density residential mixed -use buildings in a manner that defines the primary pedestrian areas, creates a strong pedestrian connection between buildings, and City of Chula Vista Page 10 of 16 Printed on 5/7/2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet powered by Le9age 729 File #: 15 -0150, Item #: 8. provides for a continuous pedestrian experience. • Mixed -Use buildings facing Town Center Drive and primary pedestrian urban spaces shall contain commercial uses that support pedestrian activities such as dining, retail and entertainment, and cultural experiences. • Hotels and mixed -use buildings shall exhibit an urban character through the use of quality building materials, textures, and scale. • Establish an urban identity through the use of streetscape features and amenities, such as bollards, street furnishings, and enhanced pavement between vehicular driveways. • Provide safe and accessible pedestrian connections to the existing and anticipated routes to the planned Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) stations. Provide features to buffer pedestrians from the BRT travel lanes where pedestrian walkways are located along the travel lanes. • Internal and external circulation systems shall be provided including a strong pedestrian - orientation, and enhanced pedestrian connectivity to the regional shopping center and internal connections between the high density residential and mixed -use areas, the hotels and the urban park. • A centrally located urban park including amenities shall be provided at a highly visible location and will serve as a public attraction in addition to serving the surrounding high density residential. • In Freeway Commercial North (FC -2), the freeway commercial land use category permits hotels and high density residential in an urban character mixed -use setting, allowing for primarily 3 to 6 story mid -rise buildings (heights will be established at the SPA level). The comprehensive list of all the proposed GDP policies is located in Appendix B of Attachment 3. The Freeway Commercial SPA Plan will require subsequent amendment so that it implements these GDP goals and objectives. Fiscal Impact Analysis (FIA) City of Chula Vista Page 11 of 16 Printed on 5/7/2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 730 File #: 15 -0150, Item #: 8. A FIA has been prepared using the City's Fiscal Impact Framework (see Appendix C of Attachment 3). Typical GPA and GDPA's are evaluated only in a build -out condition. However, given the DA and proposed GP and GDP policies that stipulate specified project features, and even though a SPA Plan is not being processed, staff required the FIA to include development phasing increments typically not required until a SPA Plan is prepared. When the SPA Plan amendment is be processed this FIA will fulfill that requirement. Based on the FIA and the assumptions contained therein, the fiscal impact generated by the proposed Project as compared to the currently approved plan (i.e. base), are zero in Years 0 & 1 and positive in all future study years including at build -out. This is because no construction is taking place on the site in Years 0 & 1. Both the base and proposed Project are estimated to generate more revenues than expenditures throughout the build -out period. The base is estimated to generate annual revenues of $4.1 million and expenses of $2.1 million resulting in a net positive fiscal impact to the City of $2.0 million annually at build -out. The proposed Project is estimated to generate revenues of $4.8 million and expenses of $2.3 million resulting in a net positive fiscal impact to the City of $2.5 million annually at build -out. Overall, the proposed Project is estimated to generate approximately $0.5 million more than the base primarily due to the Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) revenues estimated from the development of the hotels. The fiscal surplus (difference between the base and the Project) starts in Year 2 at $391,720 and grows to an annual net fiscal surplus of approximately $536,318 by build out, Year 10. As required by the development agreement, construction for the first hotel will begin prior to the issuance of a residential permit. Due to the TOT collected early on, the project will produce greater revenues than costs, creating the early surplus. With more residential development underway between years 2 and 4, the surplus temporarily declines to a Year 4 low of $173,609 before increasing again to the ultimate surplus of $536,318. While hotel uses are allowed under the current FC entitlement, the original FIA for the Freeway Commercial SPA Plan did not include revenues for hotels, therefore, the base (i.e. existing approved project) does not include revenues for hotels because there are no assurances that hotels would be developed on either FC -1 or FC -2 sites. The Development Agreement for the proposed project ensures that the City will get two hotels, one of which will be under construction prior to issuance of a building permit for residential uses. The findings in the FIA show that hotel uses generate revenues for the City at a higher rate than general commercial, and the proposed project will generate over a half million dollars more than the base, as described above. 3. Development Agreement State and City Requirements for Development Agreements California Government Code sections 65864 et seq. authorizes cities to enter into a development agreement with any person having a legal or equitable interest in real property for the development of City of Chula Vista Page 12 of 16 Printed on 5/7/2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 731 File #: 15 -0150, Item #: 8. the property. A development agreement is a contract negotiated between the project proponent and the public agency that specifies certain mutual benefits negotiated for a particular project and vests, subject to certain conditions in the agreement, the rights of the project applicant to develop the property under current land use regulations for a specified term. Through City Resolution No. 11933 (adopted in 1985), the City Council has determined that development of large projects within the City create unique and complex development considerations and that, in addition to the minimum requirements for development agreements contained in the Government Code, additional procedures and requirements for the consideration of development agreements shall be contained within each individual agreement. The Development Agreement presented here includes the requirements for development agreements contained in the Government Code, as well as additional procedures and requirements designed to address the unique and complex development considerations presented by the Project. The following discussion summarizes the benefits of the Development Agreement to both the City and the Applicant, and describes the fundamental terms of the agreement. Public Benefits Beyond the basic benefits of developing a project of the character of Freeway Commercial North (FC -2), the City will receive the following benefits from entering into the Development Agreement, which is presented in draft in Attachment6: • Dedication of right of way and construction easements necessary for the completion of the South Bay Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) line. • Provision of two hotels totaling at least 300 rooms. • Increase in net fiscal revenue of over $500,000 annually at build out as compared to the currently approved project. • A highly amenitized (see Exhibit "E" of DA) two acre public park provided in a turnkey manner after the construction of 300 residential units. • Funding to cover regular maintenance of the two acre public park. Benefits to the Master Developer • Predictability in the development approval process by vesting the permitted uses, density, intensity of use, and timing and phasing of development consistent with the Freeway Commercial SPA Plan and existing land use laws, regulations and policies for up to twenty (20) years. • Use of the City's Development Impact Fee Deferral Policy for the life of the Development Agreement (up to 20 years). Pursuant to the Development Impact Fee Deferral Policy, the Master Developer may defer the payment of Development Impact Fees until the request for final City of Chula Vista Page 13 of 16 Printed on 5/7/2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet powered by Le9age 732 File #: 15 -0150, Item #: 8. inspection of each individual residential unit upon satisfaction of specified conditions. • Ability to convert commercial area into mixed use development with a total of 600 high density multi - family units and 15,000 square feet of retail space. • Ability to meet a reduced total park acreage obligation through an onsite equivalency program. Other Terms of the Agreement The Development Agreement will contain the following additional major points: • The term of the Development Agreement, all tentative maps and other development approvals will be twenty (20) years. • For the Term of the Development Agreement, the Master Developer and its merchant builders shall have the vested right to develop the property pursuant to the Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plan, Tentative Map, Development Agreement, and existing land use laws, regulations and policies. The Development Agreement will vest permitted uses, density, intensity, timing and phasing of development, and reservations and dedications of land. • The Development Agreement may be amended from time to time by the mutual written consent of the City and Master Developer and the Owner of any affected portion of the property. • The City shall accept and process with reasonable promptness all completed applications for subsequent approvals. • The Development Agreement shall run with the land and benefit and bind future owners should the Master Developer sell or transfer ownership. The Development Agreement (DA) ensures that the 2 hotels and urban park are constructed, and phased appropriately with residential development to ensure balanced land uses are planned and built. The DA requires that the Developer meet all of its park obligations, but allows for flexibility in how those requirements are achieved. This park will be constructed to standards that exceed the requirements of a 4.6 acre park that would otherwise apply to the project. The DA contains a list of features for the Urban Park in Exhibit "E" such as water features, public art, amphitheater, sculptural landforms, rockscape /informal play areas, urban "botanical" garden, video projection screen /shade structure, adult fitness spaces /stations that would be considered as "highly - amenitized" because they are generally not included in urban parks. To the extent the cost of the urban park is less than the estimated cost to construct a standard 4.6 acre park, based on an audit, the developer must pay the excess to the City for use on other parks in the area. The highly - amenitized urban park enhances the community image of Freeway Commercial North as well as for Chula Vista. The hotels will provide jobs and higher revenues to the City through Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) and the City of Chula Vista 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 14 of 16 Printed on 5/7/2015 powered by LegistarT"^ Page 733 File #: 15 -0150, Item #: 8. ancillary commercial will also provide additional jobs and sales tax to the City. DECISION -MAKER CONFLICT Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the City Council and has found no property holdings within 500 feet of the boundaries of the property that is subject to this action. In addition, staff has conducted a decision maker conflict of interest review concerning Councilmember Miesen and has determined that a potential conflict of interest may exist because it may be reasonably foreseeable that a financial effect on a business entity in which Councilmember Miesen has a financial interest may be material. Staff is not independently aware, and has not been informed by any City Council member, of any other fact that may constitute a basis for a decision maker conflict of interest in this matter. LINK TO STRATEGIC GOALS The City's Strategic Plan has five major goals: Operational Excellence, Economic Vitality, Healthy Community, Strong and Secure Neighborhoods and a Connected Community. The Freeway Commercial North Project supports the Economic Vitality goal, particularly City Initiative 2.1.3 (Promote and support development of quality master - planned communities). The proposed GP and GDP policies support the development of a quality master - planned community (as described above) with parks, jobs, transit, shopping, and other amenities, all within walking distance for residents. The Project also results in positive net economic benefit for the City as described in the FIA section. CURRENT YEAR FISCAL IMPACT The processing for the GP and GDP Plan amendments, Addendum, and all supporting documents were funded by a developer deposit account. This account funded city staff and consultants representing the City on the Freeway Commercial North project. ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT The Supplemental FIA for the Freeway Commercial North Amendment estimates that during years 0 and 1 there would be no difference between the base and proposed Project's fiscal impact of $1.9 million net annual positive surplus because the hotels have not yet been constructed. From years 2 through 10 (build -out), when comparing the base to the proposed Project, there would be a net positive fiscal benefit to the City starting at approximately $390,000 per year and increasing to over $536,000 per year. If approved, the proposed Project will yield an overall estimated $2.5 million annual net positive fiscal impact to the City at build -out, compared to an estimated $2.0 million under the adopted plan.

In that time, the company has built over 18,000 homes and has proudly earned a reputation for creating high quality communities. Many of those communities have been honored for outstanding achievement including the Pacific Coast Builders Gold Nugget Award, the Los Angeles County Beautification Award, and the Good Housekeeping Award. Baldwin & Sons is also a 3 -time winner of the National Association of Homebuilders' "Home of the Yeas" Award. Locally, Baldwin & Sons is a founding developer of the Otay Ranch community in Chula Vista. Baldwin & Sons is responsible for planning many of the community's villages as well as building numerous homes, commercial spaces, schools, and parks while preserving open spaces for recreation and enjoyment of residents. Baldwin & Sons is pleased to present the following project application. The proposed project establishes a unified, walkable, mixed -use plan for the FC2 district of Otay Ranch Planning Area 12. It is intended to enhance living, working, shopping, and transit options in the area. The project amends existing commercial entitlements on approximately 28.7 acres of the 35.0 acre FC2 site to implement 600 multi - family dwelling units and a 2 -acre public park. Commercial entitlements for the residual 6.3 acres of FC2 will remain unchanged and will accomodate two hotels with 300 total rooms. The project requires amendments to the City of Chula Vista General Plan (GP), the Otay Ranch General Development Plan (GDP), and the Freeway Commercial Specific Planning Area (SPA) Plan. The project also involves addenda to the approved Freeway Commercial Environmental Impact Report (EIR) and Public Facilities Financing Plan (PFFP), as well as a new Fiscal Impact Analysis (FIA). OTAY RANCH BACKGROUND The Otay Ranch General Development Plan/ Sub Regional Area Plan (GDP/ SRP) was originally adopted by the Chula Vista City Council and the San Diego County Board of Supervisors October 28, 1993. The plan governs the 23,000+ acre Otay Ranch Properties. The Otay Ranch GDP is based upon, and directly implements, the City of Chula Vista General Plan. The Otay Ranch GDP includes plans for urban villages, a resort community, the Eastern Urban Center, industrial areas, rural estate planning areas, and a university. Since its adoption in 1993, the GDP was amended in 1998, 2001, 2005, 2006, and most recently in 2014 to address Village- specific planning issues.

It was also the freeway commercial area in the heart of Otay Ranch as established in the Otay Ranch General Development Plan (GDP). The Otay Ranch Freeway Commercial Center represents a southward and eastward extension of the initial development approved in Otay Ranch Sectional Planning Area (SPA) One, containing Villages 1 and 5. It also represents an eastward extension of Village 6 and a westward extension of Village 11. Additionally, the Freeway Commercial Center is an extension of the urban development approved and constructed in the Eastlake Planned Community, located immediately to the north. In 2001, a GDP amendment separated the EUC and Freeway Commercial components into separate planning areas. In September 2004 the Freeway Commercial SPA Plan was adopted and entitled approximately 1,214,000 sf of commercial uses: 867,000 sf on FC1 and 347,000 sf on FC2. In 2006, the Otay Ranch Town Center Mall was constructed on FC1 and in 2007 a SPA amendment was approved which raised the total commercial area allowed on FC1 from 867,000 sf to 960,000 sf. Today, the FC2 site remains vacant and undeveloped.

It is intended to enhance living, working, shopping, and transit options in the area. Site uses are located to engender project goals, and enhance the viability of proposed uses. Although new residential uses are proposed, the importance of commercial uses, including hotels, is recognized. As a result, the amount, and location of the uses has been prioritized in the site planning process. Site planning responds to hotel needs by locating the hotel uses on the northwest corner of the site where they will have optimal visibility from both Olympic Parkway and SR -125. The planned retail uses (provided in a mixed use format) are located along Town Center Drive. This location provides the cretail optimal visibility from the street, and the planned diagonal parking will provide convenient accessibility for customers. This is crucial to the viability of retail /commercial uses on PA12. The park, fronting on Town Center Drive, is located at the center of the project and intended to link all of the uses toqether.

The location is also proximate to Otay Ranch Village 6 (via the pedestrian linkage that will be provided by the BRT bridge) which includes park and school uses as well as residential. The close proximity to these neighboring uses, as well as to the park and integrated retail uses on the FC2 site, encourages residents to walk to uses, rather than drive. The proposed residential uses are also within a short walk, less than half of a mile, of the proposed BRT transit stop along Eastlake Parkway at the Otay Ranch Town Center Mall. This further encourages residents to reduce automobile use in favor of walking and transit. Although residential uses are adjacent to SR125, buildings have been setback/buffered from the western property line to minimize the effects of the freeway. Additionally, the freeway is located well below the level of the residential pad. To connect uses in a walkable, cohesive manner on site, pedestrian walkways will connect residential, hotel and commercial uses. Additionally, in some cases, enhancements will be added to create a pedestrian friendly environment and encourage residents to walk. Architecture will be complementary across all uses to further establish a cohesive site design. BALDWIN & SONS PA12 :FC2 :GP +GDP AMENDMENTS PROJECT DESCRIPTION 5 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 750 GENERAL PLAN JUSTIFICATION EXISTING SITE CONDITIONS The FC2 project site is bounded by the SR125 (west), Olympic Parkway (north), Eastlake Parkway (east), and the Otay Ranch Town Center mall (south). Adjacent land uses include Otay Ranch Village 6 (west), a commercial center in the Eastlake planned community (north), Otay Ranch Village 11 (east), and the Otay Ranch Town Center Mall (south). A future Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) guideway is planned to bridge across SR125 from Village 6, cross the southwest portion of FC2, and progress east on the south side of FC2s southern boundary. Town Center Drive, an existing roadway, bisects FC2 into eastern and western sections. FC2 is approximately 35.0 gross acres. Approximately 347,000 sf of regional commercial uses were entitled on FC2 in 2003. In the mid 2000s, FC2 was rough graded. The site is currently vacant aside from temporary signage. Pedestrian and vehicular access to FC2 is taken from Olympic Parkway to the north and the Otay Ranch Town Center to the South. Town Center Drive provides pedestrian /vehicular access across the site and connects Olympic Parkway to the Otay Ranch Town Center. Additionally, the proposed BRT alignment will provide pedestrian access to the site from an off -site transit stop fronting the Otay Ranch Town Center along Eastlake Parkway. A pedestrian walkway will be provided on the proposed BRT bridge that spans SR125. This will provide pedestrian connection between FC2 and Otay Ranch Village 6. PROPOSED AMENDMENTS The proposed project creates a unified, walkable, mixed use FC2 site that enhances living, working, shopping, and transit options in the area. The project proposes to amend the General Plan to change 28.7 acres from Commercial Retail to 26.7 acres of Mixed Use Residential to implement 600 multi - family dwelling units, and two acres of Parks and Recreation. Implementation of the proposed project involves proposed amendments to the City of Chula Vista General Plan, the Otay Ranch General Development Plan, and a future amendment to the Freeway Commercial SPA Plan. In the General Plan, land use maps are updated to reflect a portion of the site changing from commercial to mixed use residential and parkland and tables are updated to reflect 600 new dwelling units and a resultant population of approximately 1,566 new residents. Additionally, City staff has crafted new policies to guide the development of a mixed use place. BALDWIN & SONS PA12 :FC2 :GP +GDP AMENDMENTS PROJECT JUSTIFICATION 6 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 751 In the Otay Ranch General Development Plan, land use maps are updated to reflect a portion of the site changing from commercial to mixed use. Additionally, tables are updated to reflect new dwelling units and population, and account for the additional park and recreation acreage. Additional new policies have also been crafted to provide further direction for SPA Plan implementation of the mixed use places. A Commercial Lands Analysis was prepared and supports the conversion of land from retail uses to residential showing that the region has an oversupply of planned retail area. A Fiscal Impact Analysis (FIA) was also prepared as part of the project, and shows that the project is a net positive to the City. Related to but independent from the proposed project, Baldwin & Sons will process a Design Review application for the construction of 2 hotels on the FC2 site. Hotels provide an undersupplied use to Chula Vista residents and significant fiscal benefit to the City of Chula Vista. The hotel uses are allowed under existing commercial entitlements. A CUP is required due to the height of the proposed hotels. I W_ \1011011116-1091611016-1101 MI: T_ T4 1[*] 101 6- FC2 is currently entitled with approximately 347,000 sf of commercial uses. No residential uses are entitled at this time. As a result, land use amendments are necessary for implementation of proposed residential uses on FC2. In replacing 332,000 sf of retail (though almost 200,000 square feet of commercial is provided in the form of the hotels) with 600 residential units on 26.7 acres, the proposed project changes density from 0 du /ac to approximately 23 du /ac. The proposed project complements and enhances the aforementioned surrounding land uses in OR Village 6 (to the west), Eastlake Commercial Center (to the north), OR V11 (to the east), and OR Town Center Mall (to the south) by adding a high- density housing option, and associated residents, within walking distance of these existing uses. These surrounding properties do not require a zone change due to the proposed project. The inclusion of residential dwelling units provides benefit to the neighborhood, community, and City of Chula Vista as a whole. In particular, the proposed project will engender development of a complete, mixed -use, multi -hour neighborhood that is unified, walkable, and dynamic. This is demonstrated in the following ways: More Walking, Less Driving Locating residential uses close to commercial uses will increase walkability and decrease vehicular trips. Residents will be able to walk to adjacent uses such as the Otay Ranch Town Center mall, Eastlake commercial center, and schools and parks in OR V6 (via pedestrian pathway on BRT bridge). BALDWIN & SONS PA12 :FC2 :GP +GDP AMENDMENTS PROJECT JUSTIFICATION 7 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 752 Dynamic, Active, Safe By implementing residential uses, FC2 will become more active throughout the day, and will attract a broader set of visitors. This activity increases vibrancy and attracts residents /shoppers. Activity also creates a safer environment for residents /shoppers by increasing `eyes on the street'. Synergy Between Uses Increasing residential uses (and the resultant increase in population) will encourage and enhance existing uses in the project area. The increased population will support existing commercial uses and attract others. In so doing, adding residential uses will create a stronger, more dynamic retail environment. This not only benefits the commercial uses in the immediate area, it also benefits the community and city due to tax revenue generation. Increased Transit Ridership for BRT By locating residential uses near the proposed BRT transit stop on Eastlake Parkway, the proposed project will increase BRT ridership. This conforms to Chula Vista General Plan objectives by placing higher density residential near transit stations. It also increases the viability of BRT, and encourages alternatives to automobile use. Balanced Land Uses Currently, there is an oversupply of retail uses in the immediate area. This is evident in the low rents and high vacancy rates seen in commercial projects in the area. By converting commercial land to residential, the proposed project will reduce this oversupply. Commercial uses will also benefit from the new residential population /shoppers generated by proposed residential uses. Sense of Place and Character Adding residential to FC2 will create a sense of place and character to the district. The combination of residential, commercial, hotel, parkland, and regional transit (BRT) located in close proximity to the existing Otay Ranch Town Center will result in a vibrant, semi -urban node of activity. This unique environment in Otay Ranch will attract residents and visitors. Increased Housing Choices The proposed project will provide Chula Vista residents an increased number of housing choices /opportunities within the immediate Freeway commercial area, and in the city as a whole. The proposed residential apartments include a high - quality architectural design with equally high - quality on -site amenities. This combination of design and amenities in apartments is currently undersupplied in Chula Vista and one that will further attract residents to the community. Additionally, the for sale units will allow BALDWIN & SONS PA12 :FC2 :GP +GDP AMENDMENTS PROJECT JUSTIFICATION 8 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 753 residents additional housing options within a highly walkable project that will offer access to already existing commercial uses. Contextual Design The proposed project will be similar to surrounding projects in terms of bulk, scale, and architectural design. Project site planning includes pedestrian and vehicular connections to the adjacent Otay Ranch Town Center Mall to facilitate/ encourage pedestrian and vehicular access. Internally, the uses on site will be designed in a cohesive manner. ECONOMIC CONSIDERATIONS The proposed project encourages economic growth and diversity within the City of Chula Vista. Increasing residential units and local population will increase viability of the existing commercial sites to the north and south as well as those uses proposed on the site. This will help existing retailers to flourish, and will attract others to the area. Also, although processed seperately, approval of residential uses will allow the development of hotels on a portion of FC2 which is currently entitled for commercial entitlements. Hotels will provide the City of Chula Vista with significant fiscal benefit. To further define these benefits, a fiscal impact analysis has been conducted. Although the proposed project reduces commercial acreage in the immediate area, a significant amount of the originally entitled 347,000 square feet of commercial will remain. Almost 200,000 square feet of the commercial entitlement will be used for the two hotels and another 15,000 square feet of retail will be provided in a mixed use format with the residential. Additionally, it is important to consider the economic benefit/ impact of project timing. Entitling residential uses will allow hotel and retail uses to be developed earlier. Without residential uses, the site would likely remain undeveloped for a longer period of time. As a result, residential uses will provide the City of Chula Vista revenues from hotel and retail uses in a more immediate timeframe. Finally, many of the retail users that were intended for this site have been able to relocate to projects in the Eastern Urban Center allowing the City to still capture sales tax revenues from those users while also helping to energize other area of Otay Ranch. ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS Historically, the Otay Valley Parcel of the Otay Ranch property was used for ranching, grazing, dry farming and truck farming activities. Because the site has been graded and is located in an urbanized area, there are few environmentally sensitive considerations on the project site. In particular, vegetation, sensitive wildlife, soils, topography, watercourses, visual corridors, noise sources and hazardous materials are not specific concerns. BALDWIN & SONS PA12 :FC2 :GP +GDP AMENDMENTS PROJECT JUSTIFICATION 9 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 754 Due to the project's proximity to the the SR125 freeway, a health risk assessment was performed as part of the project analysis. Residential site planning will attempt to minimize any impacts from the SR125 freeway. The proposed project will provide preserve land acreage consistent with Otay Ranch General Development Plan and the existing Freeway Commercial SPA Plan prior to issuance of final map. HOUSING DEVELOPMENT CONSIDERATIONS The proposed project will accommodate affordable housing in a manner consistent with the City of Chula Vista Municipal Code and the Otay Ranch General Development Plan. INFRASTRUCTURE CONSIDERATIONS Water Currently water is provided to the area via a 16" water line in Olympic Parkway, a 20" line in Eastlake Parkway, and a proposed 12" line in Town Center Drive. A technical consultant (Dexter Wilson) has analyzed these facilities for the proposed project and has been deemed them adequate to support the proposed development. Additional connections to Olympic Parkway will be made to serve the hotel, park and residential uses with both potable and reclaimed water. The future PA12 SPA Amendment development will be required to comply with the City of Chula Vista Guidelines for water conservation. In addition to using recycled water where feasible for landscape irrigation, the proposed apartment units will implement additional water conservation measures such as hot water pipe insulation, pressure reducing valves, and water efficient dishwashers. Sewer The proposed onsite sewer system for the PA12 SPA area consists of gravity sewer lines that will convey flow to the Poggi Canyon Interceptor in Olympic Parkway. Based on the average flow, an 8" gravity sewer line is adequate to convey total project flow. The available capacity in the Poggi Canyon Interceptor was also evaluated under the proposed condition. Only the two reaches already identified for future replacement are shown to be over capacity. The proposed amendment does not require additional reaches of the Poggi Canyon Interceptor to be upgraded in the future. Upon approval of the proposed PA12 amendment, the Poggi Basin Gravity Sewer Development Impact Fee should be updated to reflect additional units. Schools School generation impacts will be mitigated through tax obligations and BALDWIN & SONS PA12 :FC2 :GP +GDP AMENDMENTS PROJECT JUSTIFICATION 10 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 755 development fees at time of building permit issuance. Public Facilities Financing Plan To identify, summarize and implement the various facility costs associated with the Freeway Commercial project, a Public Facility Financing Plan (PFFP) was created in conjunction with the existing Freeway Commercial SPA Plan. The PFFP implements the City's Growth Management Program and meets General Plan/ Growth Management Element goals and objectives. The Chula Vista Growth Management Program implements the City's necessary public facilities and services exist or are provided concurrent with the demands of new development. Prior to approval of the SPA Plan Amendment, the Public Facilities Financing plan will be amended to ensure timely provision of necessary project services and utilities. PUBLIC BENEFIT CONSIDERATIONS The proposed project provides a number of public benefits to the immediate area, the Otay Ranch, and to the City of Chula Vista. These project benefits have been discussed in the `land use considerations' section of the general plan justification.

Introduction A. Purpose of the General Plan Amendment (GPA) Baldwin & Sons proposes to amend portions of the General Plan in order to establish consistency between the 2005 General Plan as amended in December 2014, and proposed in the 2015 General Development Plan Amendment for Planning Area 12 (PA -12). Adopted General Plan page numbers, exhibit numbers, and figure numbers pertain to the General Plan document adopted December 13, 2005 as amended December 2014. B. Purpose of the Project /Proposal This GPA application is one part of Baldwin & Sons intent to implement long -range development goals and strategies as they pertain to portions of PA -12. Baldwin & Sons has submitted an application for Otay Ranch General Development Plan Amendment (GDPA), and will submit applications for a Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plan Amendment, Tentative Subdivision Maps (TM) and the associated environmental documentation. The purpose of this set of submittals is to establish compliance with the current General Plan. As part of this application, a revised definition of two Freeway Commercial land use designation is proposed to allow for a better mix of permitted commercial and residential land uses that promote walkability, reduce vehicle miles traveled (VMTs), and support transit. These plans are intended to fulfill the goals of smart - growth development, SB 375 and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and are generally consistent with current 2005 General Plan policies. This application updates selected text and tables to reflect updated U.S. Census Bureau population statistics and dwelling unit counts based on proposed PA12 amendment.

It is bounded by State Route 125 on the west, Olympic Parkway on the north, and Eastlake Parkway on the east Existing Conditions The southerly 85 -acre portion of the area (Freeway Commercial South WC-1) is currently developed as a regional sh000ina mall. The northerlv 35 -acre portion (Freewav Commercial North WC-2)) is vacant and undeveloped. Planning and engineering for the development of t-H� the northerly area is currently underway, following the adoption of a SPA amendment application and approval of a tentative map and associated zoning permits authorizing construction of -a hotels, high density residential units, park, and retail commercial in a mixed -use format 2015- 05- 12%gfl' ATk488 City of Chula Vista General Plan Page 770 LAND USE AND TRANSPORTATION ELEMENT CHAPTER 5 Vision for Focus Area This Focus Area provides both local and regional - serving retail commercial and entertainment uses. These uses are an important component of the Eastern University District's role as the urban and cultural center for the East Planning Area, as well as serving the surrounding south San Diego County region. The area's immediate proximity to State Route 125 and other major streets provides for an automobile orientation, although it is also served by the regional bus rapid transit BR system. High Density /Mixed Use Residential uses in the northerly portion of this area promote walkability, reduce vehicle miles traveled (VMTs), and decrease traffic impacts through the pedestrian activation of Town Center Drive and close proximity between the hotels, park, retail commercial, residential uses, and the adjacent transit Objective - LUT 9 M Create a retail commercial center that supports the East Planning Area /Otay Ranch population by providing regional goods and services that are not accommodated in the residential Village Cores or Town Centers; functions integrally with the intense, pedestrian- oriented urban activity of the Eastern Urban Center (EUC) Focus Area; and accommodates the Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system connecting it to other villages, the Eastern Urban Center (EUC), and the region.

Eastern Urban Center A projected Otay Ranch population of approximately 88�T114,119 creates a need for a centralized urban area to provide the regional goods and services which cannot be provided in village cores. Certain goods and services are not available in village cores because of the problems caused by permitting regional traffic into the villages. The 400 -acre Eastern Urban Center and Freeway Commercial area are located east of SR -125, on a rise overlooking the Otay Valley Parcel. This area will provide an intense, vital activity center to include an employment base with office, retail, business park, and visitor- serving commercial uses; cultural, entertainment, civic, recreation activity and residential uses. The bus rapid- transit (BIM system connects the EUC to the region and some of the villages of the Otay Ranch. d. Industrial /Business Park /Freeway Commercial The Otay Ranch Land Use Plan designates industrial /business park and freeway commercial uses primarily along the SR -125 corridor. Policies relating to these uses are discussed in Section D, Land Use Design, Character, and Policies. Industrial /commercial uses are located in the following areas: • There are two areas for industrial uses: 1) located south of the Otay Valley, adjacent to industrial areas of Otay Mesa and one west of Heritage Road at the extreme western edge of the parcel near existing industrial development 2) Included within Village 3 and within the western portion of Village Two. These light industrial uses total approximately 559.8acres. • Commercial /Office: located in the EUC. These uses include the regional retail commercial, hotel, and office uses. • A business park is located within the EUC. • Freeway commercial uses are located north of the EUC and east of SR -125. The freeway commercial area includes two planning areas with et mix4twe of uses two types of uses: (1) Freeway Commercial South (FC -1) includes a regional shopping center and other commercial uses dependent on direct highway exposure and access, and (2) Freeway Commercial North (FC -2) is envisioned to include hotels and high density residential in a mixed -use setting with some commercial uses. TheseThis areas totals approximately 191120 acres.

Commercial /Office /Business Park a. Regional Commercial /Office The Eastern Urban Center (EUC) contains the most intense development in Otay Ranch and is the urban heart of the region (Planning Area 12) . Uses and intensities are intended to create a lively, 24 -hour environment, with a creative medley of uses, building types and amenities. These uses include the regional retail commercial, hotel and office uses. Retail and office development within the Eastern Urban Center is of an intensity compatible with a "downtown" urban center. The most intense development is concentrated near the trolley station(s), with building heights and sizes gradually decreasing toward the edge of the planning area. (See Part II, Chapter 1, Section F. 12.; Eastern Urban Center [Planning Area 121 for applicable policies.) b. Freeway Commercial Adjacent to the EUC is approximately 196.5120 acres of freeway commercial (Planning Area 12). The Freeway Commercial contains two planning areas. Freeway Commercial South WC-1 on Exhibit 621 afea provides for a mixture of uses suitable for, and dependent on, direct highway exposure, including large -scale uses which require sites primarily served by vehicular access. such as: automobile centers; discount stores; warehouse outlets; membership clubs; and other large scale uses that require freeway exposure. Public uses such as park- and -ride and transit related services are also permitted. Typical uses permitted in the Freeway Commercial South category WC-1) include regional shopping opportunities, such as a mall with restaurants and entertainment uses. Freeway Commercial North WC-2 on Exhibit 62) is envisioned to provide hotels and high density residential in a mixed -use urban character setting that includes ancillary commercial uses and an urban park. Freeway Commercial Policies o The actual amount and location of freeway commercial uses shall be established at the SPA level. o In Freeway Commercial South (FC -1). The the freeway commercial land use category permits freeway- oriented, low scale buildings of three stories or less (heights will be established at the SPA level). The mass of the buildings shall Adopted October 28, 1993 Page 11 -65 zois -os -iz &0 �rded February 26, 2013 Amended March 2015 Page 799 Ranch GDP /SRP 0 Part 11 be balanced with landscaped setbacks and landscaping within parking areas. o In Freeway Commercial North WC-2). the freeway commercial land use category permits hotels and high density residential in an urban character mixed -use setting, allowing for primarily 3- to 6 -story mid -rise buildings (heights will be established at the SPA level). o The mass of the buildings shall be balanced with usable active and passive open space areas including an urban park adjacent to commercial mixed -uses. o Provide pedestrian - oriented features, such as tree -lined landscape parkways or hardscape with tree- wells, to buffer pedestrian sidewalks located next to roadways, transit routes and parking areas. o Setbacks, which promote a pedestrian- oriented environment and prevent a "strip development" appearance, should be established at the SPA level. o Landscaping shall create a well -kept and attractive commercial and residential environment. Large parking areas shall be landscaped to minimize heat gain and break up expanses of asphalt. o Prepare a signage program for freeway commercial uses concurrent with the first SPA containing freeway commercial uses. Developed separately, the north and south freeway commercial areas (FC -1 and FC -2 on Exhibit 62) will provide separate signage programs that ensures clear design ties between FC -1 and FC -2 to promote a sense of cohesion. C. Business Park Business park uses are generally of a "research and development" character. The uses are arranged with various amenities presenting a feeling of a quality corporate setting. Business park uses are permitted within the EUC land use category, located in the EUC (Planning Area 12). Business Park Policies ❑ Exact floor area ratios for business park uses shall be established at the SPA level. o Business park uses shall be low to mid -rise (two to three stories maximum). o These facilities shall be linked by pedestrian and transit systems to other parts of the EUC, as well as to the potential university. o Landscape and amenities such as open space, water features, plazas, and walkways shall be an important part of the business park.

Advise. Act. 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 810 Executive Summary The City of Chula Vista ( "City ") retained HR&A Advisors ( "HR&A ") to evaluate the fiscal impacts of a proposed amendment to the Freeway Commercial Sectional Planning Area ( "SPA ") to the City of Chula Vista's General Fund. The Freeway Commercial SPA includes approximately 1,215,000 square feet of commercial uses, 867,000 square feet on the FC1 site and 347,000 square feet on the FC2 site. The Otay Ranch Town Center Mall was constructed and is operating on the bulk of the FC1 site, but the FC2 site remains vacant. The proposed amendment will allow for the addition of 600 residential units and a 2 -acre park on the designated FC2 site. The proposed amendment also includes two hotels with a total of 300 rooms on the FC2 site. Purpose of the Study A fiscal impact analysis of the proposed Freeway Commercial SPA FC2 Amendment is required as part of the supplemental Public Facilities Financing Plan (PFFP). The Supplemental PFFP ensures that the future development of the Freeway Commercial SPA is consistent with the overall goals and policies of the City's General Plan, Growth Management Program and that the development of the project will not adversely impact the City's Quality of Life Standards. The following analysis evaluates the net fiscal impact of the Freeway Commercial SPA FC2 Amendment ( "FC2 Amendment ") across a 10 -year period, including build out, and reviews the annual net fiscal impact of the approved Freeway Commercial SPA ( "Approved FC SPA ") across a similar 10 -year period as a point of comparison. For the purposes of this analysis, net fiscal impacts refer to the fiscal revenues of the SPA less the fiscal costs generated by the SPA. A positive net fiscal impact means that the SPA's fiscal revenues cover the costs generated by the SPA. The FC2 Amendment's net fiscal impact above or below the Approved FC SPA net fiscal impact is the opportunity cost or benefit generated as a result of the amendment. As part of this study, we also include a sensitivity analysis to understand the performance of the Approved FC SPA relative to the FC2 Amendment if specific land uses, particularly the hotels, are not fully built out. The sensitivity analysis reviews the net fiscal performance of the FC2 Amendment in the scenario that only one hotel is built out or a lower number of rooms are developed and also provides an understanding of net fiscal performance at different price levels. Results Including sales tax receipts based on onsite sales' generated from the Otay Ranch Town Center, the Freeway Commercial SPA has a current (Year 0) positive annual impact of $1.00 million that is expected to grow based on the proposed development. ' This sales tax receipt approach is an adjustment from the standard SPA Framework. The SPA Framework evaluates sales tax receipts based on spending of residents within a SPA. The approach was adjusted in this study because the standard approach would not provide an understanding of the impact of the proposed commercial changes in the FC2 Amendment. HR&A Advisors, Inc. Chula Vista SPA FC2 Amendment FIA 1 2 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 811 Using the City of Chula Vista's SPA Fiscal Impact Analysis Framework, the FC2 Amendment is expected to generate an annual positive net fiscal impact of approximately $2.54 million in Year 10. The FC2 Amendment is expected to generate total fiscal revenues of approximately $4.80 million in Year 10. Sales tax receipts and transient occupancy tax (hotel tax) receipts are the greatest sources of fiscal revenue. Sales and use tax receipts represent 55 percent of fiscal revenues while transient occupancy tax represent 25 percent of fiscal revenues. The FC2 Amendment is expected to generate annual fiscal expenditures of $2.26 million in Year 10. Public safety costs make up the majority of anticipated fiscal expenditures. The Approved FC SPA is projected to generate annual net fiscal revenues of $2.00 million in Year 10. The Approved FC SPA, which is projected to consist solely of retail commercial uses, will generate annual fiscal revenues of $4.11 million in Year 10. Sales and use tax receipts represent approximately 85 percent of total fiscal revenues for the Approved FC SPA. Annual fiscal expenditures generated by the Approved FC SPA are estimated at $2.11 million annually. Conclusions Both the FC2 Amendment and Approved FC SPA are projected to generate positive net fiscal revenues to the City of Chula Vista throughout the study period. However, starting in Year 2, the FC2 Amendment will generate more fiscal revenues than the Approved FC SPA. In Year 10, the FC2 Amendment is expected to generate approximately $540,000 more than the Approved FC SPA. Transient occupancy taxes are a key factor in the greater fiscal performance of the FC2 Amendment and further analysis was completed to understand the sensitivity of the overall land use program to variation in the number of hotel rooms developed and the hotel room rate. The sensitivity analysis revealed that, at an average room rate of $140 per night, 175 hotel rooms is the point of neutrality between the FC2 Amendment and Approved FC SPA, i.e. the number of developed rooms in which the net fiscal revenues both scenarios generate are approximately equal. If less than 175 rooms are built the Approved FC SPA will outperform the FC2 Amendment. HR&A Advisors, Inc.

Chula Vista SPA FC2 Amendment FIA 1 5 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 814 Introduction Baldwin and Sons (the "Developer ") is currently preparing an amendment to the previously approved Otay Ranch Planning Area 12 Freeway Commercial SPA to add 600 residential units, 300 hotel rooms, and a 2 -acre park to the FC2 site. The Freeway Commercial SPA was approved in 2004 and includes approximately 1,215,000 square feet of commercial uses, 867,000 square feet on the FC1 site and 347,000 square feet on the FC2 site. Otay Ranch Town Center Mall was constructed and is operating on the FC1 site, but the FC2 site remains vacant. Figure 3: Freeway Commercial SPA FC1 and FC2 Site Map Source: Google Maps and HR &A Advisors HR&A Advisors, Inc. Chula Vista SPA FC2 Amendment FIA 1 6 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 815 Project The Developer has proposed a mixed -use plan for the FC2 site that includes residential, hotel, and commercial uses. The proposed project amends existing commercial entitlements on the approximately 35 acre FC2 site to implement 600 multi - family dwelling units and a 2 -acre park. The residential development is planned as high quality multi - family rental apartments and for -sale multi - family townhomes, with the possibility of multi - family detached units2. Commercial development is planned to include 15,000 square feet of mixed -use retail uses and two hotels, with a total of 300 rooms. The proposed project is projected to fill its Community Purpose Facility (CPF) obligations using excess CPF from developments in the Village 2 SPA. Park requirements will be met onsite through an equivalency program and maintenance will be satisfied through a Community Facilities District. Land Use Program Figure 4 presents the land use program for the Approved FC SPA at build out and the FC2 Amendment at build out. Population and Employment Estimated population for the project site under the FC2 Amendment are based on an estimated 2.61 persons per household for multi - family residences. The Approved FC SPA does not have any residential units and thus no projected population. Employment Retail employment is estimated at an industry average of approximately one employee per 450 square feet of occupied building space. Hotel employees for comparable limited- service upper to midscale hotels are approximately 0.8 to 1 employee per room. 2 For the purposes of this analysis, all for -sale multi - family products are assumed to be townhouses.

Chula Vista SPA FC2 Amendment FIA 1 8 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 817 Projected Absorption Schedule The absorption schedules shown in Figure 6 and Figure 7 were developed based on input from the Otay Ranch Town Shopping Center, the FC2 site Developer, and a review of the historical absorption of single - family and multi - family units in the City of Chula Vista across the last 10 years. Development Program Absorption Existing Development (FC1 Site) The Otay Ranch Town Shopping Center reports that they currently have 655,000 square feet of building area on the FC1 site. An estimated 26,000 square feet of open air common area exists in addition to the building area. For purposes of this analysis, existing retail square feet on the FC1 site is estimated at 680,000 square feet and 187,000 square feet of retail is estimated for future development on the FC1 site. Retail Absorption The retail absorption was estimated based on a brief benchmark of future retail demand. The table below calculates total City of Chula Vista retail gross leasable area on a per dwelling unit basis and applies this estimate to the projected dwelling unit development from the latest City of Chula Vista Growth Management Plan, to estimate a benchmark of demand3 for new retail. On average, there is benchmark demand for 155,000 square feet of gross leasable area. This includes all types of retail. Assuming the Freeway Commercial SPA is able to capture approximately 50 percent of the benchmarked demand, we estimate that the remaining balance of the FC1 parcel retail, 187,000 square feet, will be built out at approximately 80,000 square feet a year. The proposed 15,000 square feet of retail on the FC2 site is expected to be absorbed in line with the development of the rental multi - family in Year 4.

The historical absorption of residential units in Chula Vista is shown in the Appendix Table A -2. Between 2008 and 2014, an average of approximately 400 multi - family units were added in Chula Vista. For the FIA, we assume absorption starting in mid -2017 and use 250 units as the max annual multi - family residential absorption in 2018 and 2019. Hotel Absorption There are a limited number of quality hotels in the Otay Ranch and Chula Vista areas. Actual hotel absorption will be linked with the ability to attract an interested hotel chain /developer. The Developer anticipates the first hotel will open in 2016. The Developer anticipates the second hotel will be opened three years after the first. The FIA includes the first hotel in 2016 and the second hotel in 2019. It should be noted that we assume a buildup period in occupancy when estimating transient occupancy tax. Absorption of Other Uses Park uses are projected to develop in line with residential uses.

As prescribed in the SPA Fiscal Impact Framework, HR&A used revenue and expenditure factors from the SPA Fiscal Impact Framework to estimate fiscal revenues and expenditures expected to grow proportionally with new development. Special analysis models were used to estimate revenues, such as property tax revenues, transient occupancy tax, vehicle license fee (VLF) revenues, and sales taxes that may not grow proportionately with new development. The detailed methodology of the SPA Fiscal Impact Framework is described in the memorandum "SPA Fiscal Analysis — Fiscal Model Methodology Including the Development of Fiscal Factors in the Analysis of SPA Proposals ", dated February 2008. The following methodology section highlights key inputs and updates made to the methodology for the FC2 Amendment FIA. Budget and Revenue Factors The budget revenue and expenditure factors provided by the City are based on the FY 2009 City of Chula Vista budget. Adjustments have been made to these budget factors to provide a more accurate accounting of future impacts, including: (1) an expenditure and revenue adjustment to account for appropriate service standards, (2) a retail expenditure density adjustment, and (3) a 2015 dollar adjustment. In addition, as described in the methodology section, the calculation of onsite retail sales differs from the calculation in the SPA Fiscal Impact Framework. Service Standard Adjustment (Real Inflation Adjustment) Due to the 2007 recession, the City of Chula Vista implemented several rounds of budget reduction between FY 2007 and FY 2009, cutting the City's service standard below the desired level. The expenditure and revenue adjustment factors use a 5 -year average of inflation adjusted per capita revenue and expenditures to determine an appropriate level of future expenditures and revenues. Retail Expenditure Density Factor Retail expenditure factors were developed based on historical citywide acres and account for a historical citywide floor -to -area (FAR) ratios. Based on the citywide FAR, a factor is determined that translates the retail expenditure budget acre factor into a square foot factor. Figure 8: Retail Expenditure Factor Density Adjustment Land Use Citywide Density Village Per SF Density Factor Retail 0.28 FAR 0.00008 Source: City of Chula Vista, SPA Fiscal Framework HR&A Advisors, Inc. Chula Vista SPA FC2 Amendment FIA 1 13 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 822 2015 Dollar Adjustment Finally, given that the FIA is based on FY 2009 budget, the inflation adjustment adjusts final total revenues and expenditures from 2009 dollars to 2015 dollars. It should be noted that the 2015 dollar amount is approximated using the mid -year 2014 San Diego Consumer Price Index. Revenue Methodology Special Models Special models were used to estimate fiscal impacts for property taxes, property transfer taxes, MVLF in- lieu fees, transient occupancy tax and sales tax. Special models were built based on the SPA Fiscal Framework with updated tax rates, as appropriate, and assessed value and household income inputs. Assessed Values and Property Taxes The incremental assessed value attributable to the Project is used to estimate property taxes, property transfer taxes, and MVLF in -lieu fees. The actual assessed building and improvement value for the FC1 site are used as the existing Year 0 value for the FC1 site. The current assessed value of the FC2 land reported by the County Assessor's Office and an estimate of the land value on the unimproved FC1 site are used as the base land value for undeveloped land. HR&A reviewed current market residential and commercial data and the assessed value of comparable projects to determine appropriate assessed values for new FC2 development. The capitalized value approach was used to estimate the market value of the retail properties and hotel properties as shown in Appendix Table A -5 and B -4. Retail Assessed Value The average 2014 41" quarter rental rate for shopping center retail in the greater Eastlake retail submarket was approximately $2.10 per gross leasable square foot according to Costar. This average includes a variety of retail types. HR&A reviewed historic and current retail property rents to estimate the rents for the mixed use retail product that is planned for the FC2 Amendment. Mixed use retail tends to achieve more conservative rents relative to community center and neighborhood center retail. The mixed use commercial proposed in the FC2 Amendment is most likely to be similar to mixed use retail such as Heritage Town Center at 1 392 E. Palomar Street. For the mixed -use retail in the FC2 Amendment, HR&A uses an average retail lease rent of $1.85, and a conservative capitalization rate (cap rate) based on cap rates reported by the RERC Real Estate Report. The capitalized value approach, as shown in Appendix Table A -5, provided an assessed value of approximately $240.00 per square foot of building square foot for retail uses. HR&A Advisors, Inc.

However, existing accommodations options include primarily economy -level limited service hotels. The Developer anticipates that the hotels located on the site may be similar to a Residence Inn or Courtyard by Marriott which are mid -scale to upscale in nature. The following table includes the asking room rates for comparable hotels in the San Diego area. HR&A estimates that a Residence Inn or Courtyard Marriott level hotel will have average asking rates of $150 to $200 and will achieve average revenue of between $120 to $160 per room night. Figure 1 1 shows average room metrics for San Diego County hotels. Based on a review of comparable hotels and countywide averages, we use an estimated average room rate of $140 to estimate the assessed value. Using standard industry margins and a current cap rate of approximate 9 percent, each hotel room is projected to have a value of approximately $146,000 per room.

The City's proportion of the 1 percent tax distribution is 10.64% within this tax rate area. Transfer taxes were assessed at $0.55 per $1000 of assessed value. VLF Fees Until July of 2011, 0.65 percent VLF revenues were estimated based on population increases while the property taxes in -lieu of VLF fees ( "MVLF In -Lieu Fees ") are based on incremental growth in assessed value. The State of California's Legislature passed SB89 in 2011 that eliminates 0.65% VLF payments as of July 2011. The California League of Cities filed suit to challenge the law, but the State Superior Court recently ruled against the League in March of 2012. HR&A Advisors, Inc. Chula Vista SPA FC2 Amendment FIA 1 17 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 826 The 0.65% VLF fees generated based on population have been excluded from this analysis. The MVLF In- Lieu Fees are still allocated proportionally, based on incremental growth in assessed value as described in the SPA Fiscal Impact Framework. Sales Tax It should be noted that the calculation of sales tax in this fiscal impact differs from the SPA FIA Framework. In the SPA FIA Framework, sales tax receipts to the City are analyzed on the basis of the project's incremental residents' retail spending. The SPA Framework used this sales tax analysis approach to ensure that retail sales tax receipts were not double counted by both the developer of a new retail shopping center and by a separate developer of nearby residential whose spending will support the new center. To better understand the variation in fiscal revenues generated from the different levels of commercial development in the FC2 Amendment and the Approved SPA, this analysis evaluates sales tax receipts based on the gross leasable square feet within each of the sites4. Estimated taxable sales for the existing FC1 site is based on current Chula Vista taxable sales averages and the taxable sales for new retail was estimated based on average California taxable sales per square estimates produced by HdL. Taxables sales per square foot of $270 and a 95 percent occupancy rate were used to estimate the taxables sales from both existing and future retail development. Other Discretionary Revenues As described above, revenue factors from the SPA Fiscal Framework were used to estimate revenues that are expected to grow proportionally with development. These are derived in Appendix Tables A -10 & A- 1 1 and B -8 & B -9. These factors are summarized in the table below.

Figure 16 and Figure 17 present the annual fiscal revenues and annual fiscal expenditures of each of the scenarios. As described in the Methodology section, the tables present anticipated revenues estimated based on special models such as property taxes, MVLF in -lieu fee revenues, transient occupancy tax, and sales and use tax, and other revenues, calculated on a pro rata basis, are summarized. Estimated expenditures are calculated and presented by land use category.5 The figures in these tables have been adjusted to reflect 2015 dollars. FC2 Amendment Figure 16 presents the annual fiscal revenues and fiscal expenditures of the FC2 Amendment. The detailed analysis of the FC2 Amendment is included within Appendix A. Using the methodology described above, the FC2 Amendment will generate annual fiscal revenues of approximately $4.80 million in Year 10 (2015 dollars). Sales and use tax receipts represent 55 percent of revenues and are the greatest sources of fiscal revenue. Annual sales tax receipts are currently estimated at $1.84 million and are expected to grow by $778,000 at buildout of retail properties in Year 5. Transient occupancy tax (TOT) are the second greatest source of revenue for the FC2 Amendment scenario. At approximately $1.17 million annually at build out, TOT receipts are projected to generate approximately 25 percent of the total revenues. TOT will begin to be generated with the first hotel in Year 2, which will reach full occupancy (70 %) in Year 3. The second hotel and its related TOT taxes are projected to come online in Year 5 with TOT growing at full occupancy in Year 6. The FC2 Amendment is projected to generate annual expenditures of $2.26 million in Year 10 (2015 dollars). Public safety (police and fire) are the City's greatest fiscal costs and are expected to be the greatest costs generated as a result of new development. Including both the dwelling unit allocation and allocations of public safety costs from other land uses, the FC2 Amendment will generate approximately $1.26 million in public safety costs. In Year 10, the FC2 Amendment is expected to generate a positive net fiscal impact of approximately $2.54 million. The Freeway Commercial SPA, including all onsite retail tax receipts, currently generates an estimated $1.00 million positive net fiscal revenue to the City annually. This net fiscal revenue grows with the build out of the retail developments and hotel developments. One -time property transfer and the incremental property taxes create the largest spikes after the inclusion of the hotels in Year 2 and Year 5. Net fiscal revenues grow on a constant basis after Year 7. 5 Also includes expenditures calculated based on population. HR&A Advisors, Inc.

Chula Vista SPA FC2 Amendment FIA 1 21 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 830 Approved FC SPA Figure 17 presents the annual fiscal revenues and fiscal expenditures of the Approved FC SPA. Using the methodology described above, the Approved FC SPA will generate fiscal revenues of approximately $4.11 million in Year 10 (2015 dollars). Sales and use tax receipts are the greatest sources of fiscal revenue in the Approved FC SPA scenario. Sales tax receipts make up almost 85 percent of total revenues. Current sales tax receipts are estimated at $1.84 million annually. With a greater amount of future retail in this scenario, sales tax receipts are expected to grow by $1.60 million at buildout of retail properties in Year 5. After sales tax receipts, property tax, at $280,000 annually, and VLF "in -lieu" fee revenues, $200,000 annually, are the next greatest sources of revenue. The Approved FC SPA is projected to generate annual expenditures of $2.11 million in Year 10 (2015 dollars). Public safety costs are also expected to be the greatest costs generated as a result of new development. Within the retail land use factor, public safety costs account for more than 50 percent of the costs, or $1.14 million. In Year 10, the Approved FC SPA is expected to generate a positive net fiscal impact of approximately $2.00 million. Similar to the FC2 Amendment, the Approved FC SPA currently generates a net fiscal revenue of $1.00 million to the City. As additional retail development is absorbed, the annual net fiscal revenue increases. In this scenario, the retail is projected to be fully built out in Year 5. Net fiscal revenues stabilize in Year 6 and grow on a constant basis, thereafter. HR&A Advisors, Inc.

In Year 10, the FC2 Amendment is expected to generate $540,000 more than the Approved FC SPA. Figure 18 presents the annual opportunity (cost) /benefit between the two scenarios. Key variations in fiscal impacts include sales tax differences, TOT differences, and property tax receipt differences. The FC2 Amendment generates $820,000 less in sales tax revenues than the Approved FC SPA, but generates $1.17 million in TOT that is not generated in the Approved FC SPA, assuming it is built fully as retail. Overall, development of the FC2 Amendment is not expected to adversely impact the City of Chula Vista's quality of life. However, given that TOT receipts are key fiscal revenues, the timing and number of hotel rooms that are successful developed will impact the City net fiscal impacts The next section presents a sensitivity analysis evaluating the variation in net fiscal impact at various room rates and at different levels of hotel room absorption.

The opportunity (cost) /benefit represents the FC2 Amendment net fiscal impacts less the base Approved FC SPA scenario's net fiscal impacts. Based on absorption information from the Developer and HR&A's brief survey of the San Diego and Chula Vista hotel market, the FIA includes the projected average room rate ($140) and number of hotel rooms (300). The current assumption is highlighted in the sensitivity matrix. Three different hotel amounts have been modeled to provide the City with information regarding varying scenarios. Hotel Room Scenarios: • 148 Rooms. Only one hotel gets built in Year 2. • 175 Rooms. Point of Neutrality. One hotel gets built in Year 2 and 27 additional rooms are built in Year 56. • 300 Rooms. The Developer anticipates the development of two hotels, one with 148 and another with 152 rooms each. The FIA models a 148 -room hotel in Year 2 and a second hotel with 152 rooms in Year 5.

As shown above, the FC2 Amendment generates positive net fiscal impacts within the $120 to $160 average room rate range and 175 to 300 hotel rooms range. However, if only one hotel is built, of approximately 148 rooms, there will be an opportunity cost of the FC2 Amendment relative to the Approved FC SPA. At an average room rate of $140 per room night, 175 hotel rooms is the point of neutrality between the FC2 Amendment and Approved FC SPA. Assuming an average of $140 per room night and assuming that 6 Note that it is not likely that a new hotel will be built with 27 rooms (though an expansion of an existing hotel may be possible). Instead, this number of rooms is included to understand the theoretical point of neutrality of the project in terms of hotel rooms. HR&A Advisors, Inc.

KEYSER MARSTON ASSOMTESTM ADVISORS IN PUBLIC/PRIVATE REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT MEMORANDUM ADVISORS IN: REAL ESTATE AFFORDABLE HOUSING ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT A. Background Per our agreement dated January 19, 2015, Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. (KMA) has completed an update of our commercial market overview for Baldwin & Sons and SunRanch Capital Partners, LLC's (Owners') Olympic Parkway property in the City of Chula Vista (City). As background, the subject property is the approximately 35 -acre Parcel FC -2 (Property) located directly north of the existing Otay Ranch Town Center. The Property is bounded by Olympic Parkway on the north, Eastlake Parkway on the east, and State Route (SR) 125 on the west. The Property is currently vacant and designated "Freeway Commercial" per the Otay Ranch Freeway Commercial Sectional Planning Area Plan (SPA Plan) adopted in 2003. This designation allows approximately 350,000 square feet (SF) of commercial space. The Owners propose to amend the SPA Plan to allow development of approximately 600 residential units and a two -acre park. The Owners propose to develop the balance of the Property with two hotels comprising 300 rooms and 15,000 SF of mixed -use retail space; both of these components are compatible with the existing entitlements.

Background Per our agreement dated January 19, 2015, Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. (KMA) has completed an update of our commercial market overview for Baldwin & Sons and SunRanch Capital Partners, LLC's (Owners') Olympic Parkway property in the City of Chula Vista (City). As background, the subject property is the approximately 35 -acre Parcel FC -2 (Property) located directly north of the existing Otay Ranch Town Center. The Property is bounded by Olympic Parkway on the north, Eastlake Parkway on the east, and State Route (SR) 125 on the west. The Property is currently vacant and designated "Freeway Commercial" per the Otay Ranch Freeway Commercial Sectional Planning Area Plan (SPA Plan) adopted in 2003. This designation allows approximately 350,000 square feet (SF) of commercial space. The Owners propose to amend the SPA Plan to allow development of approximately 600 residential units and a two -acre park. The Owners propose to develop the balance of the Property with two hotels comprising 300 rooms and 15,000 SF of mixed -use retail space; both of these components are compatible with the existing entitlements.

In response to these concerns, the KMA commercial market overview evaluates the current (and anticipated) supply of retail space /commercial land in the trade area relative to current (and anticipated) demand. The findings contained in this commercial market overview with respect to the demand for commercial land uses are specific to the evaluation of development on the Property. This commercial market overview was commissioned to assist the City in evaluating the feasibility of a proposed project containing two hotels and a mixed -use project on the Property. The findings contained in the commercial market overview are specific to the Property. As such, they are not subject to be used to draw conclusions or make inferences with respect to formulating future recommendations regarding changes to existing commercial land uses within the City. B. KMA Approach In completing the commercial market overview, KMA undertook the following tasks: 1. Reviewed the existing SPA Plan land use designations and proposed amendments. 2. Toured the Property and competitive commercial properties in the trade area. 3. Compiled information on current and projected demographic factors from multiple sources. 4. Collected and reviewed available commercial and residential market data for the trade area. 5. Reviewed the City's extensive database on built and planned commercial and residential developments in the trade area. 6. Prepared a retail sales surplus /(leakage) model and a projection of retail space demand resulting from buildout of planned developments in the trade area. 7. Assessed the need for commercial development on the Property to serve the anticipated demand in the trade area. C. Report Organization This memorandum report has been organized as follows: • Following this introduction, Section II summarizes our key findings. • In Section III, KMA reviews the existing situation in the trade area in terms of demographic factors and retail sales surplus /(leakage). • Section IV presents the KMA retail space demand projection. • In Section V, KMA evaluates the potential supply of retail space relative to anticipated demand. 15023ndh 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet 10300.001.003 Page 877 To: Nick Lee, PE March 12, 2015 Subject: Commercial Market Overview Update Page 3 Otay Ranch PA -12 • Section VI presents limiting conditions pertaining to the commercial market overview. • Our detailed technical analysis is presented as a series of attachments. II. KEY FINDINGS 1. The trade area currently has a healthy balance between the supply of, and demand for, retail space. The Otay Ranch trade area, defined as a four -mile ring, currently experiences - leakage of approximately 19% of total potential retail sales. This level of leakage can be considered relatively minor, given that the trade area is dominated by suburban residential uses. Additionally, most trade area residents commute to work outside the trade area, and have access to extensive shopping, services, dining, and entertainment options in other communities. 2. The trade area currently experiences an extremely high "import" of General Merchandise sales, suggesting that it is already over - saturated with "big box" General Merchandise stores. Taken together, the Owners' plans to develop hotels and apartments on the Property reduce the retail building area from a maximum of 350,000 SF to 15,000 SF. The reduction of 335,000 SF would likely have accommodated two "big box' retailers, which are the typical retail formats found around the periphery of regional malls. 3. The total potential supply of retail space in the trade area through buildout exceeds total anticipated retail space demand, as summarized in the chart below. The KMA retail space demand projection considers demand from four sources: (a) new residents, (b) new workers, (c) new students /staff /faculty at the University Park and Innovation District (UPID), and (d) potential recapture of 20% of current retail sales leakage from the trade area. Supply Estimate of Retail Overl(Under) Trade Incremental Retail Space Demand 1,930,000 SF Incremental Retail Space Supply * 2,023,000 SF Over /(Under) Supply 93,000 SF * Assumes the proposed amendment for the Property with retail at 15,000 SF. 4. Although the Property is currently designated for community and /or regional serving commercial, there are numerous other locations in the trade area designated for similar uses The commercial land use designation encompasses a range of uses, including retail /restaurant /services, office space, and visitor commercial. For example, approximately 1.3 million SF of retail use and 3.2 million SF of office use are planned for the Millenia project 15023ndh 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet 10300.001.003 Page 878 To: Nick Lee, PE Subject: Commercial Market Overview Update Otay Ranch PA -12 March 12, 2015 Page 4 (EUC) and Village Nine (adjacent to UPID). These districts are located one to two miles south of the Property. The Millenia and Village Nine locations also have SR 125 frontage and (future) Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) service. Both of these areas are planned as synergistic mixed -use districts combining residential, shopping, and employment uses in a walkable configuration. Shifting future retail demand from the Property to these newly developing communities will help support the City's vision for these districts. 5. It is the KMA view that the reduced amount of retail space that the Owners propose for the Property will be viable. This retail space will benefit from its configuration in a "main street" format along a key access route to the existing regional mall, as well as its proximity to the (future) BRT station. Moreover, the new apartment residents and hotel guests will drive additional retail demand for the Property. Taken together, the Property and Otay Ranch Town Center will form a mixed -use district — not unlike the concepts planned for Millenia and Village Nine. III. EXISTING SITUATION A. Demographic Trends The Property is located adjacent to a regional shopping mall. KMA evaluated existing land use patterns and competitive retail locations and determined that a trade area comprising a four -mile ring is appropriate. As shown in Exhibit A -1, the trade area encompasses most of eastern Chula Vista, a portion of Otay Mesa, and portions of the unincorporated County. The nearest competitive regional mall, Westfield Plaza Bonita, is located just to the northwest outside the trade area boundary. KMA compiled and reviewed current and projected demographic factors for the trade area, City of Chula Vista, County of San Diego, and State of California from ESRI, a supplier of Geographic Information System (GIS) software and geo- database applications. Demographic trends for these areas are detailed in Tables A -1 through A -3 and summarized below. • Table A -1 summarizes current demographic factors for the trade area, City, County, and State. The 2014 population of the trade area was estimated as 140,255, with a per capita income of $32,281. Aggregate personal income for the trade area was estimated to be approximately $4.5 billion. 15023ndh 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet 10300.001.003 Page 879 To: Nick Lee, PE March 12, 2015 Subject: Commercial Market Overview Update Page 5 Otay Ranch PA -12 • Table A -2 presents recent historic growth trends, as well as a five -year projection. The trade area population grew rapidly during 2000 -2014, at an annualized rate of 5.2 %. During this period, the trade area growth rate significantly outpaced the City, County, and State. Slower growth is projected for all of these areas over the next five years, estimated at just 1.4% per year for the trade area. • Table A -3 presents median household and per capita income trends for 2014 -2019. With an estimated 2014 median household income of $92,883 and per capita income of $32,281, trade area residents are considerably more affluent than their counterparts at the City, County, and State level. B. Existing Retail Sales Surplus /(Leakage) Using ESRI data on existing household retail expenditures and retail outlet sales volumes, KMA prepared retail sales surplus /(leakage) models for the trade area and City. These models are presented in Tables A -4 and A -5 and summarized below. • Table A -4 presents a comparison of retail demand and supply, and resulting surplus /(leakage), for the trade area. ESRI estimates total retail expenditure potential (demand) in the trade area in 2014 of $1.1 billion, compared to total retail sales (supply) of $920 million. This results in a retail sales leakage of approximately ($220 million), as summarized below: Total Retail Expenditure Potential (Demand) $1,140,585,000 Total Retail Sales (Supply) $920,634,000 Total Retail Sales Surplus /(Leakage) ($219,951,000) Percent of Total Expenditure Potential -19.3% These figures reflect sales to consumers by retail establishments. Sales to businesses are excluded. Gasoline stations, non -store retailers, and motor vehicle and parts dealers have been excluded, as these types of stores are not likely uses for the Property. The trade area is largely a suburban "bedroom" community dominated by residential land use and supporting retail stores, restaurants, and services. Many residents commute to employment elsewhere in the County. Moreover, while there is an existing regional mall at the center of the trade area, it contains only one department store. Thus, many trade area residents seek shopping and services outside the trade area, e.g., Mission Valley for other 15023ndh 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet 10300.001.003 Page 880 To: Subject: Nick Lee, PE Commercial Market Overview Update Otay Ranch PA -12 March 12, 2015 Page 6 department stores and specialty shops, Downtown San Diego for dining and entertainment, and Las Americas Premium Outlets for discount retail. Given these existing trends, the 19% retail sales leakage currently experienced in the trade area is not surprising. As new mixed -use districts are developed within the trade area, this leakage can be expected to decline. • If the Owners did not pursue the proposed SPA Plan amendment — and did not plan to build hotels and apartments on the Property -- then the maximum amount of retail space that could be developed on the Property would be approximately 350,000 SF. Taken together, the Owners' plans to develop hotels and apartments reduce the retail building area to approximately 15,000 SF. The reduction of 335,000 SF would likely have accommodated two "big box" General Merchandise stores, which are the typical retail formats found around the periphery of regional malls. This retail category includes "big boxes" like Costco, WalMart, Sam's Club, and Target, as well as traditional department stores. As shown in Table A -4, and summarized below, the trade area currently experiences an extremely high "import" of General Merchandise sales. This suggests that the trade area is already over - saturated with General Merchandise stores. General Merchandise Retail Expenditure Potential (Demand) $231,091,000 General Merchandise Retail Sales (Supply) $352,713,000 General Merchandise Retail Sales Surplus /(Leakage) $121,622,000 Percent of General Merchandise Expenditure Potential +52.6% The high level of retail sales leakage from other specialty goods stores provides further evidence that the trade area is over - saturated with General Merchandise stores. For example, the retail store categories of Sporting Goods, Clothing, Furniture, and Health & Personal Care all exhibit trade area retail sales significantly below the level supported by existing residents' demand. This indicates that residents are either transferring expenditures in these retail categories to the trade area General Merchandise stores, or exporting their expenditures outside the trade area. As shown in the chart below, trade area retail sales in these major retail store categories are $147 million lower than expenditure potential (refer to Table A -4 for detail by category). 15023ndh 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet 10300.001.003 Page 881 To: Nick Lee, PE March 12, 2015 Subject: Commercial Market Overview Update Page 7 Otay Ranch PA -12 Goods Trade Area Specialty 2014 Estimates, per ESRI Specialty Goods Retail Expenditure Potential (Demand) $359,233,000 Specialty Goods Retail Sales (Supply) $212,338,000 Specialty Goods Retail Sales Surplus /(Leakage) ($149,895,000) Percent of Specialty Goods Expenditure Potential -40.6% (1) Includes categories of Sporting Goods, Hobby, Musical Instrument Stores; Clothing & Clothing Accessories Stores; Furniture & Home Furnishing Stores; Health & Personal Care Stores; and Miscellaneous Store Retailers. • Similarly, Table A -5 presents a comparison of retail demand and supply, and resulting surplus /(leakage), for the City of Chula Vista. ESRI estimates total retail expenditure potential (demand) in the City in 2014 of $1.702 billion, compared to total retail sales (supply) of $1.940 billion. This results in a retail sales surplus of approximately $238 million, as summarized in the table below. Retail Expenditure Potential (Demand) $1,702,255,000 Retail Sales (Supply) $1,939,927,000 Retail Sales Surplus /(Leakage) $237,672,000 Percent of Total Expenditure Potential 14.0% It is worth noting that the City as a whole exhibits a similar "import" of General Merchandise sales. Total General Merchandise sales are almost double the level supported by existing households' expenditure potential. In general, the data show that the City is a strong importer of retail expenditures. This is likely due in significant part to its proximity to Mexico and ability to attract spending by Mexican nationals. IV. PROJECTED RETAIL SPACE DEMAND A. Growth Projection KMA prepared a projection of retail space demand in the trade area resulting from the buildout of planned developments. For this purpose, KMA relied on the SANDAG 2050 Regional Growth Forecast for Subregional Area 20 — Sweetwater. As shown in Exhibit B -1, this area includes all of eastern Chula Vista, as well as portions of Bonita and National City. It is bounded on the west by Interstate 805, on the south by the Otay River, on the east by the Otay Reservoir, and on the north by the Sweetwater Reservoir, Bonita Road, and Highway 54. 15023ndh 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet 10300.001.003 Page 882 To: Nick Lee, PE Subject: Commercial Market Overview Update Otay Ranch PA -12 March 12, 2015 Page 8 Table B -1 presents the SANDAG 2013 -2050 growth projection for Subregional Area 20 — Sweetwater (Sweetwater). SANDAG projects that total population will increase by 63,544 residents over this period. SANDAG also projects an increase of 21,589 new housing units by 2050. Over 80% of the housing growth is expected to take the form of multi - family units. As a measure of comparison, KMA compared the SANDAG growth forecast for Sweetwater with the remaining development capacity in eastern Chula Vista. These two geographic areas largely overlap. Table B -2 summarizes the existing /built and pipeline /planned residential units for all master - planned communities in eastern Chula Vista. This information was compiled from detailed project data provided by City staff. As summarized in the table below, approximately 15,269 new housing units remain for development in eastern Chula Vista. This figure is lower than the SANDAG projection of 21,589 new housing units in the Sweetwater subregion. Although the two areas are not exactly coterminous, most new growth will be occurring within Otay Ranch, which falls within both areas.

Retail Space Demand from New Households Tables B -3 through B -6 present the KMA projection of retail space demand resulting from new trade area households (using the Sweetwater growth projection). • Table B -3 presents the KMA estimate of aggregate personal income for new households residing in the new housing units. Household income is calculated based on the minimum income required to purchase or rent a housing unit. KMA assumed average market prices of $520,000 for a single - family unit and $350,000 for a multi - family unit. Average market rent was estimated at $1,500 per unit per month. These assumptions were compiled based on review of current market prices /rents for comparable new construction, presented in Tables B -4 and B -5. Based on these assumptions, KMA estimates total aggregate income for all new households through buildout of $1.705 billion. (All figures are expressed in 2015 dollars.) 15023ndh 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet 10300.001.003 Page 883 To: Nick Lee, PE Subject: Commercial Market Overview Update Otay Ranch PA -12 March 12, 2015 Page 9 • Table B -6 presents the KMA estimate of retail space demand resulting from the expenditure potential of new households in the trade area. KMA estimates total incremental retail space demand generated by new households totaling 1,050,000 SF. The KMA demand estimate reflects the following key assumptions: Assumption • Estimate of office space (see Table C -1) Basis Retail expenditures as % of income 33.0% Analysis of San Diego County annual retail • $6,500 per year, or say $26 per work day (assuming 250 work days /year) • Percent of expenditures captured in trade area sales volumes relative to population and • Estimated retail sales productivity per SF per year • $350 income Retail expenditures captured in trade 67.0% KMA assumption based on review of area competitive retail locations inside /outside trade area Estimated retail sales productivity per SF $350 International Council of Shopping Centers per year (ICSC), Quick Stats, 2013 Retail Vacancy 2.5% KMA assumption based on a review of retail market data provided by local real estate brokers C. Retail Space Demand from Other Sources In addition to retail space demand from new households, there will be other sources of demand for new retail space. These include demand from employees in new office space; students, staff, and faculty in the University Park and Innovation District (UPID); and visitors from beyond the trade area. These additional sources of demand are addressed in Tables B -7 through B -9. It should be noted that there are many unknowns regarding specific land use proposals, retail industry trends, and other economic conditions over the long -term buildout of the trade area. The following are key assumptions used in preparing these projections. Source of Demand New Office Workers (Table 8 -7) • Estimate of office space (see Table C -1) • Based on data provided by the City of Chula Vista • Office employment density • 200 SF per worker • Retail expenditure per worker • $6,500 per year, or say $26 per work day (assuming 250 work days /year) • Percent of expenditures captured in trade area • 75% of total expenditures • Estimated retail sales productivity per SF per year • $350 • Office Vacancy • 7.5% of retail space supported by new office workers 15023ndh 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet 10300.001.003 Page 884 To: Nick Lee, PE Subject: Commercial Market Overview Update Otay Ranch PA -12 March 12, 2015 Page 10 Source of Demand UPID Students, Staff, and Faculty (Table 8 -8) 1,050,000 SF Key Assumptions • Projected number of students • 18,000 • Retail expenditures per student • 50.0% of retail expenditures per resident • Percent of expenditures captured in trade area • 75.0% of total expenditures • Projected number of staff /faculty • 1,800 • Retail expenditure per staff /faculty • $6,500 per year (same as office workers) • Percent of expenditures captured in trade area • 75% of total expenditures • Estimated retail sales productivity per SF per year • $350 • Retail Vacancy • 2.5% of retail space supported by students and faculty/staff Visitors from beyond Trade Area (Table 8 -9) • Additional retail space supported by visitors from beyond trade area • 25% of total retail space supported by residents, workers, and UPID students /staff /faculty The KMA estimates of demand from all of the above sources are presented in Table B -9 and summarized below. New Households (Residents) 1,050,000 SF New Office Space (Employees) 200,000 SF UPID (Students /Staff /Faculty) 191,000 SF Visitors from beyond Trade Area 360,000 SF Total Demand 1,801,000 SF KMA notes that the above projections potentially overstate future retail space demand in the trade area. No adjustment has been made for the potential double- counting of new residents who also work in the trade area, either in the new office space or UPID facilities. Additionally, KMA considered the potential for the trade area to recapture a portion of existing retail sales leakage as new mixed -use districts are developed. KMA estimated that the trade area could recapture 20% of current retail sales leakage, or $44.0 million in annual sales volume. Assuming a $350 /SF /year sales productivity and 2.5% vacancy, the trade area could support an additional 129,000 SF of retail space. Total adjusted retail space demand is summarized in the chart below. 15023ndh 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet 10300.001.003 Page 885 To: Nick Lee, PE Subject: Commercial Market Overview Update Otay Ranch PA -12 Total Demand from New Residents, Workers, and UPID Total Demand from 20% Recapture of Existing Leakage Adjusted Total Demand V. ANTICIPATED SUPPLY OF RETAIL SPACE March 12, 2015 Page 11 1,801,000 SF 129,000 SF 1,930,000 SF The final step in the KMA analysis involved a comparison of the total projected retail space demand with the anticipated supply of retail space. KMA formulated an estimate of the remaining capacity for commercial development in the trade area based on data provided by the City. Development of new commercial space in the trade area is planned for Eastlake III — Vistas and Otay Ranch. As shown in Table C -1, a total of 5,417,000 SF of commercial development capacity remains in these two areas. Almost 85% of this commercial space is planned for two sub - areas: • The Millenia project (EUC), located less than one mile south of the Property fronting SR 125, is planned for 2,976,000 SF. Of this total, 980,000 SF is planned as retail space. • Village Nine, located less than two miles south of the Property fronting SR 125, is planned for 1,500,000 SF. Of this total, 300,000 SF is planned as retail space. For the FWC (Freeway Commercial) area, KMA has assumed the remaining development capacity of Otay Ranch Town Center (317,000 SF), plus the remaining retail land use allowance on the Property assuming that the proposed amendment is approved (15,000 SF). As shown in Table C -1, City planners anticipate incremental retail space development totaling 2,075,000 SF. KMA has adjusted this figure to 2,023,000 SF occupied space after a 2.5% vacancy factor. The following table compares the projected supply of retail space in the trade area relative to anticipated demand. As shown in the table, KMA estimates that buildout of the trade area, assuming the proposed amendment for the Property, could result in an oversupply of retail estimated at 93,000 SF.

The SPA Plan was developed to refine and implement the land use plans, goals and objectives of the Otay Ranch General Development Plan (GDP) for the development of Planning Area (PA) 12. This Addendum addresses proposed modifications to the designations in the General Plan and Otay Ranch GDP for the northern portion of Planning Area 12, which would allow for the construction of 600 multi - family residential units, 15,000 square -feet of commercial space in a mixed use format, and 2.0 acres of public parkland. To achieve this, the definition of the current freeway commercial zone would be modified to allow for residential uses. These proposed residential uses would account for approximately 26.7 acres of the Freeway Commercial 2 (FC -2) site. 2 CEQA REQUIREMENTS Sections 15162 through 15164 of the CEQA guidelines discuss a lead agency's responsibilities in handling new information that was not included in a project's final environmental impact report (EIR). Section 15162 of the CEQA Guidelines provides: a. When an EIR has been certified... for a project, no subsequent EIR shall be prepared for that project unless the lead agency determines, on the basis of substantial evidence in the light of the whole record, one or more of the following: 7266 April 2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 911 Addendum to EIR Otay Ranch Freeway Commercial Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plan Planning Area 12 1. Substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require major revisions of the EIR ... due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; 2. Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken which will require major revisions of the EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; or 3. New information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the EIR was certified as complete, shows any of the following: A. The project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the [Final] EIR; B. Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the [Final] EIR; C. Mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative; or D. Mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from those analyzed in the [Final] EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative. In the event that one of these conditions would require preparation of a subsequent EIR, but "only minor additions or changes would be necessary to make the [Final] EIR adequately apply to the project in the changed situation," the City could choose instead to issue a supplement to the FEIR (CEQA Guidelines, § 15163, subd. (a)). In the alternative, where the changes or new information will result in no new impacts, or no more severe impacts than any that were disclosed in the FEIR for the approved project, the City "shall prepare an addendum" pursuant to CEQA Guideline, § 15164. That section states that an addendum should include a "brief explanation of the decision not to prepare a subsequent EIR pursuant to § 15162," and that the explanation needs to be supported by substantial evidence (CEQA Guidelines, § 15164, subd. (e).) The addendum need not be circulated for public review, but may simply be attached to the FEIR (Ibid.; CEQA Guideline, § 15164, subd. (c)). 7266 2 April 2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 912 Addendum to EIR Otay Ranch Freeway Commercial Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plan Planning Area 12 Thus, in the following inquiry the City considers under the standards articulated above whether each of these changed circumstances reveal or create previously undisclosed significant environmental impacts or a substantial increase in the severity of previously disclosed impacts (CEQA Guidelines, §15162, 15163, 15164, subd. (a); 15088.5, subds. [a], [b]). As the following discussion demonstrates, it is appropriate for the City to prepare this Addendum to the Final Environmental Impact Report for the Otay Ranch Freeway Commercial Sectional Planning Area Plan Planning Area 12 project, pursuant to CEQA Guideline, § 15164. 3 PROJECT LOCATION AND REGIONAL SETTING Otay Ranch lies within the East Planning Area of the City of Chula Vista. The East Planning Area is bordered by Interstate 805 (I -805) to the west, San Miguel Mountain and State Route 54 to the north, the Otay Reservoir and the Jamul foothills to the east, and the Otay River Valley to the south. The SPA Plan is located in the northeastern portion of the Otay Valley Parcel of the 22,899 -acre Otay Ranch GDP project area (Figures 1 and 2). The project site, which comprises the FC portion of PA 12 in the adopted Otay Ranch GDP, is located east of State Route 125, west of Eastlake Parkway, south of Olympic Parkway, and north of Birch Road. The project area is characterized by flat mesa tops and rolling hills including a sloping canyon located in the central portion of the project site, which heads west towards Poggi Canyon. Site elevation ranges from approximately 560 feet above mean sea level (amsl) to approximately 640 feet amsl. The site was previously used for agricultural uses and livestock grazing. The site contains a small system of dirt roads and cattle trails, as well as inactive agricultural fields and non - native grasslands. The project site is surrounded by other Otay Ranch development areas including Village 6 to the west, Village I I to the east, a portion of the existing Eastlake community to the north and northeast, Village 7 to the southwest, and the EUC to the south of Birch Road. Eastlake High School and a commercial area are located north of the project site and the Arco Olympic Training Center is located east of the project site, immediately adjacent to Otay Lake. The proposed modifications are located in the northern portion of PA 12, which is identified as FC -2 in the FEIR. FC -1 is fully developed as the Otay Ranch Town Center. 4 PROJECT DESCRIPTION The project site (SPA Plan area) is comprised of approximately 120.5 acres of commercial land development, and approximately 12.4 acres for circulation improvements. A total of 1,215,000 square feet of commercial uses were proposed including administrative and professional office 7266 3 April 2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 913 Addendum to EIR Otay Ranch Freeway Commercial Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plan Planning Area 12 services, general commercial uses, and public and semipublic uses. The approved project also included a light rail alignment or transit way and a station site for the San Diego Trolley accompanied by a park -and -ride facility. The project site is divided into two major sections, including FC -1 to the south and FC -2 to the north. Under the proposed modifications, no changes to the FC -I area would occur as FC -I is currently developed as the Otay Ranch Town Center. All proposed modifications would occur within the FC -2 portion of the site (Figure 3). Town Center Drive, a north -south oriented road, runs through the center of FC -2 to connect Olympic Parkway to FC -1. All graded material would be balanced on site and would consist of approximately 1,620,000 total cubic yards of grading over the entire site (City of Chula Vista 2003). This Addendum addresses proposed modifications to the General Plan and Otay Ranch GDP designations to the northern portion of Planning Area 12, which would allow for the construction of 600 multi - family residential units, 15,000 square -feet of commercial space in a mixed use format, and 2.0 acres of public parkland. To achieve this, the definition of the current freeway commercial zone would be modified to allow for residential uses. These proposed residential uses would account for approximately 26.7 acres of the FC -2 site. Commercial space under the proposed modifications would decrease from the approved project (FC -1 and FC -2) as analyzed in the FEIR from 1,215,000 square -feet to approximately 1,092,000 square -feet (including approximately 210,000 square -feet for the hotel uses with the FC -2 site). It should be noted that no changes to the hotel portion of the FC -2 site would occur as a result of the proposed modifications, as it is consistent with the current entitlements; the hotel portion may be included on site plans and throughout parts of the analysis to give a holistic look at the FC -2 site. This action would allow for the only anticipated residential units within the Planning Area 12 SPA boundary and would change the character of the FC -2 site from a general commercial center to a mixed use community offering multifamily residential units, retail commercial, hotels, and a centralized public park. The proposed modification in land use would require amendments to the City of Chula Vista General Plan (GP), the Otay Ranch General Development Plan (GDP). A SPA amendment would also need to be approved at a future date. The proposed modifications would not require an expansion of the project site from that studied in the Final EIR and the proposed modifications would result in a decrease in trip generation and traffic impacts, and would not substantially change trip distribution patterns. No additional significant impacts beyond those previously analyzed in the FEIR, or substantial increases in any identified significant impacts are anticipated; however, the proposed modification represents new information that was not available at the time that the FEIR was certified. Therefore, the City has prepared this addendum pursuant to CEQA § 15162 to disclose minor changes in the approved project, and minor changes in some of the environmental effects as a result of proposed modifications. 7266 4 April 2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 914 Addendum to EIR Otay Ranch Freeway Commercial Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plan Planning Area 12 5 IDENTIFICATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS The following environmental analysis provided in Section 6.0 supports a determination that approval and implementation of the proposed zoning modifications to the FC -2 site on PA 12 would not result in any additional significant environmental effects beyond those previously analyzed under the FEIR for the approved project. 6 ANALYSIS Aesthetics /Landform Alterations Impacts to aesthetics are addressed in Section 5.2 of the FEIR. As analyzed in the FEIR, the SPA Plan would not obstruct a scenic vista and no scenic resources are visible from nearby roadways, including Olympic Parkway, which is not a designated scenic highway, but is considered a "scenic corridor" as designated by the City of Chula Vista General Plan. As part of project design, the approved project would include an enhanced landscaped buffer along the border of the project site to minimize impacts along the scenic corridor. Additionally, although the project site is currently undeveloped, the site is located adjacent to large areas of developed land and future planned development areas. Moreover, the adopted SPA Plan includes design development standards to minimize impacts to visual quality. The proposed modification to the FC -2 site would change a portion of the current commercial land use designation of the site to residential and mixed use and would include a neighborhood park; however, the aesthetic nature of the residential development within these areas would not be substantially different. Additionally, because no changes to the hotel portion of the FC -2 site would occur, no aesthetic changes would occur. The addition of a 2.0 acre park space within the FC -2 site would enhance the visual character through increased greenspace and natural elements. Therefore, the proposed modifications would not result in any significant impacts to scenic vistas or resources. The FEIR identified significant impacts resulting from additional light and glare to the area as the approved project would introduce new land uses to a currently undeveloped site. The proposed modifications would introduce similar light and glare elements to the area; however, the project site boundaries would remain as analyzed previously and no new light and glare impacts beyond those identified in the FEIR would occur. Therefore, no new mitigation would be required beyond mitigation measures 5.2 -1 through 5.2 -9 as identified in the FEIR. Although the proposed modifications would result in different land uses primarily consisting of residential development, thereby altering previously discussed development patterns, the 7266 5 April 2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 915 Addendum to EIR Otay Ranch Freeway Commercial Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plan Planning Area 12 modification would maintain all previously analyzed design standards and architectural considerations. Therefore, the proposed modifications from primarily commercial to mixed -use residential would not result in new substantial or significant impacts beyond those previously analyzed in the FEIR. Agriculture Impacts to agriculture are addressed in Section 5.9 of the FEIR. The proposed modifications would not result in development outside of previously established boundaries for the approved project development as proposed in the approved SPA Plan. Therefore, no new or increased levels of impacts to agricultural resources would result from implementation of the proposed modifications beyond those previously analyzed in the FEIR. Additionally, an Agricultural Plan has been prepared as part of the previously adopted SPA Plan in accordance with the mitigation identified in the Otay Ranch GDP Program EIR. This plan is intended to allow for interim agricultural activity and to prevent the potential for land use impacts between developed land and ongoing agricultural activities by providing separation between urban and adjacent agricultural uses. The Agricultural Plan includes a requirement for notification of adjacent property owners of pesticide use and other potentially harmful activities, as well as physical barriers, if warranted. Consequently, no new impacts to agriculture beyond those previously analyzed would occur. Air Quality Impacts to air quality are addressed in Section 5.4 of the FEIR. The proposed modifications addressed in this Addendum would not result in an increase in overall land use intensity or substantially change traffic distribution patterns, and would result in a decrease in traffic generation. An air quality technical report was prepared for the proposed modifications by Scientific Resources Associated (SRA 2014a). The air quality technical report analyzed air quality impacts from the proposed modifications. Information provided in the air quality technical report was compared against the analysis in the FEIR for a determination of overall net impacts resulting from the proposed modifications. Construction emissions as estimated in the air quality technical report would be below all significance thresholds for criteria air pollutants, and would not exceed those levels identified in the FEIR. The site would be watered at least three times daily to control fugitive dust emissions, and vehicle speeds would not exceed 15 miles per hour, per FEIR mitigation measure 5.4 -2. In addition, low -VOC paints would be utilized during architectural coatings. With incorporation of these design features, construction emissions were estimated to be below construction emissions 7266 6 April 2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 916 Addendum to EIR Otay Ranch Freeway Commercial Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plan Planning Area 12 estimated in the FEIR. The FEIR also identified mitigation measures 5.4 -1 and 5.4 -2, which reflect dust control measures and measures to reduce VOC and NO,, emissions. With the proposed modifications to land uses, operational emissions would be well below the levels identified in the FEIR. As discussed, the proposed modifications would result in fewer trips than the approved project; therefore, mobile emissions resulting from the proposed modifications would be lower than that previously analyzed in the FEIR. Additionally, mitigation measures 5.4 -3 and 5.4 -4 are identified in the FEIR, which would further reduce operational emissions. A health risk assessment was prepared for the proposed modifications in addition to estimates for construction and operational criteria pollutant emissions. Maximum excess cancer risk due to inhalation of diesel particulate matter (DPM) was predicted to be 17.77 in a million at the point of maximum exposure, based on a 70 -year scenario. Maximum excess cancer risk for the 9 -year scenario was estimated to be 4.44 in a million. The maximum excess cancer risks due to inhalation of DPM at an actual residential dwelling were predicted to be 9.801 in a million based on a 70 -year residential exposure scenario. Maximum excess cancer risks for the 9 -year exposure scenario at this location were 2.29 in a million. These values are below the significance thresholds of 10 in a million (SRA 2013). Therefore, no new significant sources of construction or operational air emissions or health risk impacts beyond those identified in the FEIR would occur with implementation of the proposed modifications to the approved project. Biological Resources Impacts to biological resources are addressed in Section 5.8 of the FEIR. As indicated in the FEIR, no sensitive habitat or wetlands occur on the project site, and there is a low potential for sensitive plant species to occur on site and no sensitive plant species were observed at the time of surveying. Sensitive animal species observed on site include golden eagles and tricolored blackbirds; however, no nesting activity or suitable habitat for these species were observed. The proposed modifications would not exceed previously established boundaries for project development as approved in the SPA Plan and the proposed modifications would be subject to mitigation as provided in Section 5.8. Therefore, no new or increased levels of impacts to biological resources would result from implementation of the proposed modifications beyond those previously analyzed in the FEIR. 7266 7 April 2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 917 Addendum to EIR Otay Ranch Freeway Commercial Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plan Planning Area 12 Geology and Soils Impacts to geology and soils are addressed in Section 5.11 of the FEIR. The geotechnical analysis presented in Section 5.11 of the FEIR was derived from GEOCON, Inc.'s Geotechnical Investigation Otay Ranch, Village 12 prepared in August of 2001. As previously discussed, the proposed modifications would not exceed previously established boundaries for project development as approved in the SPA Plan, and all proposed modifications would be subject to mitigation provided in Section 5.11. Due to the fact that proposed modifications would not increase acreage undergoing grading and excavation, no new significant impacts beyond those previously identified in the EIR would occur. Therefore, implementation of the proposed modifications would not require additional analysis beyond that which is presented in Section 5.11 of the FEIR, and no new impacts would occur. Greenhouse Gases Impacts resulting from greenhouse gas emissions were not addressed in the FEIR. The proposed modifications would not increase the severity of previously identified air quality impacts, nor would it result in any new significant effects related to air emissions that were not previously identified in the FEIR. Additionally, the proposed modifications would result in fewer vehicle trips compared to the approved project as analyzed in the FEIR; therefore, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from mobile sources would be less. Moreover, in light of the wide range of global warming activity prior to certification of the FEIR in 2003, there are no substantial changes to the circumstances under which the proposed modifications would be undertaken, and no new information of substantial importance that was not known and could not have been known when the FEIR was completed has since been identified. A Global Climate Change Evaluation was prepared for the proposed project by SRA. GHG emissions were calculated in the report for "business as usual" conditions and for conditions with implementation of GHG emission reduction project design features proposed by the proposed project applicants. "Business as usual" is defined as the emissions that would have occurred in the absence of reductions mandated under AB 32, including GHG reductions from implementation of the Pavley 1 and Pavley 2 motor vehicle standard, GHG reductions from implementation of the Low Carbon Fuel Standard, and GHG reductions from implementation of the Renewable Portfolio Standard. "Business as usual" conditions also are based on energy efficiency standards codified in Title 24 as of 2005, and do not take into consideration energy efficiency measures codified in Title 24 as of 2013, nor do they take into account other programs such as the Federal CAFE standards (SRA 2014). 7266 8 April 2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 918 Addendum to EIR Otay Ranch Freeway Commercial Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plan Planning Area 12 To evaluate impacts from discretionary projects, many lead agencies have set a goal to reduce GHG emissions by a certain amount to demonstrate consistency with AB 32. Different agencies and studies estimate different goals for reduction of emissions to achieve 1990 levels by the year 2020, as set forth in AB 32. Other agencies have estimated a reduction of 28% to 29% based on the ARB's analysis that statewide 2020 business as usual GHG emissions would be 596 MMTCO2e, with 1990 emissions of 427 MMTCO2e, for a reduction of 28.35% (ARB 2010). Based on this goal, a significance threshold of 28.35% below "business as usual" conditions was used in this analysis to evaluate potential significance of impacts from GHG emissions. The City has established a significance threshold of 20% below "business as usual ". GHG emissions associated with the proposed modifications were estimated separately for four categories of emissions: (1) construction; (2) energy use, including electricity and natural gas usage; (3) water consumption; (4) waste management; and (5) transportation. The analysis includes a baseline estimate assuming 2005 Title 24- compliant buildings, which is considered business as usual for the proposed modifications. For "business as usual" conditions, emissions were calculated without implementation of the Pavley standards or Low Carbon Fuel Standard. The proposed modifications would include a number of project design features that would reduce the project's GHG emissions including land use and community design measures, transit facilities, and building siting and construction, as identified in the Global Climate Change Evaluation. These measures were taken into account when estimating the proposed modifications' total CO2 equivalent emissions as shown in Table 1 below. As noted in Section 3.0 above, no changes to the hotel portion of the FC -2 site are proposed; however, the GHG emissions calculations include the hotel use in order to achieve a holistic view of the FC -2 site. As such, the GHG emissions from the proposed modifications would be expected to be lower than that outlined in Table 1 below. Amortized over 30 years, construction would contribute 174 metric tons per year of CO2 emissions. These emissions were added to the operational GHG emissions to evaluate their significance. The results of the inventory for operational emissions for business as usual are presented in Table 1. These include GHG emissions associated with buildings (natural gas, purchased electricity) and water consumption (energy embodied in potable water). 7266 9 April 2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 919 Addendum to EIR Otay Ranch Freeway Commercial Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plan Planning Area 12 Table 1 Summary of Estimated Operational Greenhouse Gas Emissions Source: SRA 2014 As shown in Table 1, the proposed modifications would meet the significance threshold by reducing operational GHG emissions by 38.27 %. Project emissions, with inclusion of GHG reduction measures, would achieve a reduction greater than the City's 20% reduction from "business as usual" threshold. Again, as noted previously, these calculated emissions also include the hotel portion of the FC -2 site, which would not change under the proposed modifications. As such, the GHG emissions resulting from the proposed modifications would be lower than that identified in Table 1 above. The proposed modifications would, therefore, meet the goals of AB 32. Impacts resulting from emissions of greenhouse gases would therefore be less than significant. Water Resources and Water Quality Impacts to water quality are addressed in Section 5.10 of the FEIR. SPA -level water quality technical reports were completed for the approved project as analyzed in the FEIR. The proposed modifications would continue to comply with all applicable rules and regulations including compliance with NPDES permit requirements for urban runoff and storm water discharge. Best Management Practices (BMPs) for design, treatment and monitoring for storm water quality would be implemented as delineated in the FEIR with respect to municipal and construction permits. Compliance with all applicable rules and regulations governing water quality as well as implementation of all mitigation measures outlined in Section 5.10 of the FEIR would ensure no additional impacts to water quality beyond those previously analyzed would occur as a result of the proposed modifications. 7266 10 April 2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 920 Emission Source Annual Emissions (metric tons /year) I CO2 T CHa N20 Operational Emissions Electricity Use Emissions 464 0.0193 0.0052 Natural Gas Use Emissions 813 0.0904 0.0015 Water Consumption Emissions 208 0.0087 0.0023 Waste Management Emissions 25 1.14850 — Vehicle Emissions 4,571 0.0317 0.2093 Amortized Construction Emissions 174 — — Total 6,255 1.6351 0.2183 Total CO2 Equivalent Emissions 6,360 Business as Usual CO2 Equivalent Emissions 10,606 Reduction 38.27% Source: SRA 2014 As shown in Table 1, the proposed modifications would meet the significance threshold by reducing operational GHG emissions by 38.27 %.

Again, as noted previously, these calculated emissions also include the hotel portion of the FC -2 site, which would not change under the proposed modifications. As such, the GHG emissions resulting from the proposed modifications would be lower than that identified in Table 1 above. The proposed modifications would, therefore, meet the goals of AB 32. Impacts resulting from emissions of greenhouse gases would therefore be less than significant. Water Resources and Water Quality Impacts to water quality are addressed in Section 5.10 of the FEIR. SPA -level water quality technical reports were completed for the approved project as analyzed in the FEIR. The proposed modifications would continue to comply with all applicable rules and regulations including compliance with NPDES permit requirements for urban runoff and storm water discharge.

Compliance with all applicable rules and regulations governing water quality as well as implementation of all mitigation measures outlined in Section 5.10 of the FEIR would ensure no additional impacts to water quality beyond those previously analyzed would occur as a result of the proposed modifications. 7266 10 April 2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 920 Addendum to EIR Otay Ranch Freeway Commercial Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plan Planning Area 12 Noise The Acoustical Assessment (Dudek 2015) concludes that the future noise levels from traffic would exceed the City's maximum exterior noise level criterion of 65 dBA CNEL above the first floor at the both the residential units fronting SR -125 and the Bus Rapid Transit corridor. Additionally, the noise levels at the exterior use areas for the mixed use buildings on the northeastern portion of the site would exceed the City's limit. However, the Otay Ranch GDP has policies in place to require appropriate sound attenuation project features for all required residential open space and public open space areas that are exposed to a noise level of 65 dBA CNEL or greater. Consistent with these policies, balconies planned on these residential units that are counted toward any open space requirements would incorporate appropriate sound attenuating project features around the perimeter of the balconies. As a result, these outdoor areas would not exceed the 65 dB CNEL threshold. This analysis also demonstrates that HVAC, truck traffic, loading and unloading, and trash collection would not exceed the City's applicable limits established in the noise ordinance in accordance with Mitigation Measure 5.5 -1 of the approved FEIR. Additionally, consistent with Mitigation Measure 5.5 -2 of the approved FEIR, the proposed project would not result in noise levels that exceed 70 dBA CNEL at patron - occupied exterior areas of the proposed commercial land uses. Therefore, no new significant impacts would occur beyond what is analyzed in the FEIR. Traffic, Circulation, and Access Impacts to traffic are addressed in Section 5.3 of the FEIR. A traffic analysis has been conducted to evaluate the potential traffic impacts associated with the proposed modifications (Chen Ryan 2015). The trip generation rate utilized for the entire PA 12 (Freeway Commercial land use) as analyzed in the FEIR was 40 trips per 1,000 square -feet of commercial space. The FC -2 site, when accounting for the proposed modifications, consists of hotel uses, residential, mixed- use commercial, and park, and is located within 1,500 feet (less than 10 minutes of walking) of the Otay Ranch Town Center, grocery, banking, drugstore, postal services, both fast food and sit - down restaurants, as well as a future BRT station (this area encompasses the FC -1 portion of PA 12). A 15% trip reduction was utilized in the project's traffic analysis to account for the mixed - use nature of the project as well as its proximity to transit, consistent with SANDAG guidance (Chen Ryan 2015). With a 15% transit and mixed -use reduction, the FC -2 site would generate approximately 7,506 daily trips, which is lower than the entitled land use trip generation of approximately 12,145 daily trips for the FC -2 site. Additionally, the traffic analysis accounted for the hotel portion of the FC -2 site; under the proposed modifications, the hotel portions for the FC -2 site would not 7266 11 April 2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 921 Addendum to EIR Otay Ranch Freeway Commercial Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plan Planning Area 12 change. Therefore, the proposed modifications would result in fewer trips than analyzed in the traffic analysis. Since the proposed modified land uses would generate less traffic than the entitled land uses, there would be no additional traffic impacts associated with the proposed modifications. Therefore, no new significant impacts would occur beyond what is analyzed in the FEIR. Public Services and Utilities Impacts to public services and utilities are addressed in Section 5.12 of the FEIR. A Water System Evaluation memorandum was prepared by Dexter Wilson for the project (Dexter Wilson 2014a). Additionally, a Sewer System Evaluation was prepared for the proposed project (Dexter Wilson 2014b). Water Demand and Water System The approved project water demands were included in the 2010 Water Resources Master Plan. Table 2 summarizes the approved project water demands as presented in the Water Resources Master Plan and projected demand based on the proposed modifications. As shown, projected water demand from the proposed modifications would increase by 136,378 gallons per day, or 13 acre -feet per year from that assumed in the Water Resources Master Plan (Dexter Wilson 2014). Table 2 Proposed Project Water Demand Summary Land Use Acres I Building Units I Unit Demand Factor Total Demand (gpd) Approved Water Demand (2010 WRMP) Commercial 29.9 1 1 1,785 gpd /ac 53,372 Proposed Modification Potable Water Demand Multi - Family Residential 600 255 gpd /unit' 153,000 Hotels 300 115 gpd /unit' 34,500 Commercial 1.4 1,607 gpd /ac' 2,250 Subtotal 189,750 Increased Water Demand 136,378 Source: Dexter Wilson 2014a Notes: gpd = gallons per day Assumes recycled water to be used for irrigation The recommended water system was outlined in the 2002 Sub Area Master Plan for the approved project and included in the 2010 Water Resources Management Plan. As shown in Table 2, the 7266 12 April 2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 922 Addendum to EIR Otay Ranch Freeway Commercial Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plan Planning Area 12 water demand for the project exceeds what was estimated in the 2010 Water Resources Management Plan. On April 1, 2015 the Otay Water District approved a Water Supply Assessment and Verification Report for the proposed project. The Water Supply Assessment and Verification Report projected an approximately 173 acre -feet per year increase in demand beyond what was estimated in the 2010 Water Resources Master Plan, and an approximately 46 acre -feet per year increase in demand beyond what was estimated in the 2013 Water Supply Assessment and Verification Report for a prior iteration of the proposed project. The demand is accounted for through the Accelerated Forecasted Growth demand increment of the Water Authority's 2010 Urban Water Management Plan. The sizing of the existing 16 -inch water line in Olympic Parkway, 20 -inch line in Eastlake Parkway, and 12 -inch line in Town Center Drive, and 12 -inch lines within FC -1 are adequate to support the proposed modifications and, therefore, no changes to the approved project water system as analyzed in the FEIR are necessary as a result of the proposed modifications (Dexter Wilson 2014). Additionally, the proposed modifications would comply with the City of Chula Vista Guidelines for water conservation, including the use of recycled water for landscaping and implementation of additional water conservation measures such as hot water pipe insulation, pressure reducing valves, and water efficient dishwashers. Regarding recycled water use, the proposed modification would use recycled water for irrigation of the park site and common areas associated with the commercial and residential sites. Table 3 shows the average recycled water demand associated with the proposed project. Table 3 Proposed Project Projected Recycled Water Demand Source: Dexter Wilson 2014a Notes: gpd = gallons per day As shown in Table 3, the estimated average recycled water demand for the proposed modifications is 31,610 gallons per day, or 35.4 acre -feet per year (Dexter Wilson 2014). 7266 13 April 2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 923 Quantity Recycled Water Factor Net Recycled Acreage Unit Rate Average Demand Multi - Family Residential 600 units 15% 45 gpd /unit 27,000 Commercial 1.4 acres 10% 0.4 2,155 gpd /ac 300 Park 2.0 acres 100% 2.0 2,155 gpd /ac 4,310 Total 31,610 gpd Source: Dexter Wilson 2014a Notes: gpd = gallons per day As shown in Table 3, the estimated average recycled water demand for the proposed modifications is 31,610 gallons per day, or 35.4 acre -feet per year (Dexter Wilson 2014). 7266 13 April 2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 923 Addendum to EIR Otay Ranch Freeway Commercial Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plan Planning Area 12 Wastewater Demand and Wastewater System The August 2004 approved SPA plan provided projected wastewater flows. Table 4 shows a comparison between projected wastewater flows for the approved project and wastewater flows based on the land uses of the proposed modifications.

The Poggi Canyon Basin Gravity Sewer Development Impact Fee Update (DIF report) was completed in April 2009, which projected wastewater flows associated with the Poggi Canyon Interceptor. Table 5 shows a comparison of wastewater flows associated with the proposed modifications and projected flows as presented in the DIF report.

The proposed on -site wastewater system would consist of gravity sewer lines that would convey flow to the Poggi Canyon Interceptor in Olympic Parkway. Based on the average flow presented in Table 4 and a peak factor of 2.28 from the City Subdivision Manual, the projected peak flow for the proposed modifications is 0.39 million gallons per day. An 8 -inch gravity sewer line with a minimum slope of 0.53% is adequate to convey this projected total flow. Additionally, the proposed modifications do not require additional reaches of the Poggi Interceptor to be upgraded in the future. Therefore, although the proposed modifications would exceed the units anticipated in the 2009 Poggi DIF report, the limits of the required DIF improvements remain the same. Additionally, the proposed modifications would be required to update the Poggi DIF study as a condition of approval (Dexter Wilson 2014b). The project is consistent with FEIR Mitigation Measures 5.12 -11 through 5.12 -13, which require the applicant to demonstrate adequate capacity in the Poggi Canyon sewer line. As demonstrated above, there is adequate sewer capacity. Also, when the proposed project comes forward for approval, it will be conditioned to pay sewer fees and connect to the sewer system. Summary When compared to what was previously analyzed in the FEIR, the proposed project would represent an increase in water and wastewater demand. However, the proposed modifications would not exceed the capacities of the existing water and wastewater systems as well as those proposed under the FEIR. Additionally, on April 1, 2015 the Otay Water District approved a Water Supply Assessment and Verification Report for the proposed project. As such, the 7266 15 April 2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 925 Addendum to EIR Otay Ranch r Commercial Sectional Planning Area Plan Plannina Area proposed modifications would not result in any new significant environmental effects beyond those previously analyzed under the FEIR for the approved project. I This document has identified all changed circumstances and new information and memorializes in detail the City's reasoned conclusion that none of these changes create the conditions requiring the preparation of a Subsequent or Supplemental EIR pursuant to CEQA Guidelines, Sections 15162 and 15163. Pursuant to Section 15164 of the State CEQA Guidelines and based upon the above discussion, I hereby find that approval and implementation of the proposed project will result in only minor technical changes or additions, which are necessary to make the FEIR adequate under CEQA. ;� Chen Ryan. 2015.

Development on compressible soils could potentially settle under increased loads, or due to an increase in moisture content from site irrigation or changes in drainage conditions. This settlement could result in damage to structures, roads, and property. Several locally continuous claystone beds were observed which may intersect the proposed cut slopes around the perimeter of the site. Daylighting or exposure of these claystone layers could potentially result in surficiat slope failures.

Village 11 and Sunranch are collectively referred to in this Agreement as the "Owner ". The City or the Owner are sometimes individually referred to in this Agreement as a "Party" and are collectively referred to as the "Parties ". The Parties enter into this Agreement with reference to the following recited facts (each a "Recital "): RECITALS A. To strengthen the public planning process, encourage private participation in comprehensive planning and to reduce the economic risk of development, the State of California has enacted the Development Agreement Statute, found at Sections 65864 et seq., of the California Government Code. B. The City is authorized by the Development Agreement Statute and by its City Charter to enter into development agreements with persons and entities having legal or equitable interests in real property for the purpose of establishing predictability for both the City and the property owner in the development process and in the provision of public infrastructure and public benefits. C. Owner has a legal or equitable interest in that certain real property consisting of approximately 36.3 acres of land located in the City of Chula Vista, County of San Diego, State of California, more particularly described and depicted in Exhibit "A" to this Agreement (the "Property "). D. The Property is located in the Otay Ranch Freeway Commercial Sectional Planning Area Plan ( "SPA Plan "). It is currently partially developed having previously been entitled by the City for development as contemplated by the SPA Plan. E. Owner desires to amend the land use designations for the FC -2 area of the SPA Plan to allow for up to 600 residential units, 2 acres of enhanced parkland, 15,000 square feet of retail provided in a mixed use format (with an additional 15,000 square feet constructed to commercial standards, as defined in this Agreement), and two hotels of approximately 150 guestrooms each, to enhance the Property as a unified, walkable and mixed -use development which offers potential residents additional housing options (the "Project "). A general description and depiction of key elements of the Project is contained in Exhibit "B" to this Agreement. F. Owner has requested that the City enter into a development agreement for the development of the Project, and the City desires to enter into this Agreement pursuant to the provisions of the California Government Code, the City Charter, the General Plan, the City Municipal Code, and applicable City policies. 60093.00025 \8523646.9 -2- 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 964 G. This Agreement assures that development of the Project will occur in accordance with the General Plan, the Otay Ranch General Development Plan ( "Otay Ranch GDP "), the SPA Plan, as amended by the Project Approvals, and all of the implementing regulations for those various Plans. H. This Agreement constitutes a current exercise of the City's police powers to provide predictability to the Owner in the development approval process by vesting the permitted uses, density, intensity of use, and timing and phasing of the Project in exchange for the Owner's commitment to provide significant public benefits to the City. I. This Agreement is also intended to ensure that the Owner has provided funding sufficient to provide the adequate and appropriate infrastructure and public facilities required by the development of the Project, and that this infrastructure and public facilities will be available no later than when required to serve the Project's demand. J. The commitments of the Owner made in this Agreement allow the City to realize significant economic, recreational, park, open space, social, public facilities or other public benefits. These public benefits will advance the interests and meet the needs of Chula Vista's residents and visitors to a significantly greater extent than would development of the Project under the current entitlements and absent this Agreement. K. In return for the Owner's commitment to provide these public benefits, the City is willing to exercise its authority to enter into this Agreement and to make a commitment of predictability for the development process for the Project.

This Section shall not be construed to limit the authority of the City to charge its then - current, normal and customary impact fees or other mitigation requirements in place at the time of the application for the permit or approval, notwithstanding the fact that such fees may have been increased by the City subsequent to the Approval Date. 4.5.3 Procedural regulations relating to hearing bodies, petitions, applications, notices, findings, records, hearings, reports, recommendations, appeals, and any other matter of procedure. 4.5.4 The following, provided that they are uniformly applied to all development projects within the City: 60093.00025 \8523646.9 -7- 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 969 4.5.4.1 Uniform codes governing engineering and construction standards and specifications adopted by the City pursuant to state law. Such codes include, without limitation, the City's adopted version of the Uniform Administrative Code, California Building Code, California Plumbing Code, California Mechanical Code, California Electrical Code, and California Fire Code. 4.5.4.2 Local amendments to those uniform codes which are adopted by the City pursuant to state law, provided they pertain exclusively to the preservation of life and safety. 4.5.4.3 The City's standards and procedures regarding the granting of encroachment permits and the conveyance of rights and interests which provides for the use of or the entry upon public property. 4.5.4.4 The City's public improvement engineering ordinances, policies, rules, regulations and standards in effect when construction drawings for those improvements are submitted to City. City will reasonably consider requests for exceptions to and deviations from these public improvement engineering ordinances, policies, rules, regulations and standards necessary or desirable for implementation of the Project or the Project Approvals. 4.5.5 Regulations which may be in conflict with this Agreement, but which are objectively required to protect the public health and safety. 4.5.6 State or federal laws or regulations which preempt local regulations or mandate local regulations or conditions that conflict with the development of the Project. This expressly includes mandates imposed through the Clean Water Act or the Porter- Cologne Water Quality Control Act. 4.5.7 Prior to exercising the Reservation of Authority provided in Sections 4.5.5 and 4.5.6, the City shall provide Owner with written notice of the state or federal law or regulation, or the regulation required to protect the public health and safety that conflicts with this Agreement, and a written explanation of the conflict created. Within ten (10) days of the City's written notice, City and Owner shall meet and confer in good faith in a reasonable attempt to apply the state or federal law, or the regulation required to protect the public health and safety, in a manner that is most consistent with this Agreement, best preserves the terms of this Agreement and that protects rights of Owner as derived from this Agreement, to the extent reasonably possible, while still following the applicable law or regulation. Failure of the City to provide this notice 60093.00025 \8523646.9 in 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 970 shall not relieve Owner of its obligation to comply with such law or regulation. 4.5.8 Owner shall be issued building permits for the Project after permit applications are reviewed and approved by City in the City's customary fashion for such review and approval. 4.5.9 The exercise of the power of eminent domain. 4.6 Vested Rights Upon Termination. Owner acknowledges that following termination of this Agreement, except as to any Project Approval or Subsequent Project Approval that has vested under state law without reliance on this Agreement, City may amend the General Plan, Otay Ranch GDP, SPA Plan or Land Use Regulations as they relate to the Project. 4.7 Compliance with CEQA. The City Council has found that the environmental impacts of the Project have been addressed in the Final Environmental Impact Report for the Otay Ranch Freeway Commercial Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plan- Planning Area 12 ( "FEIR 02 -04 ") (SCH # 1989010154), including addenda to FEIR 02 -04. Where the California Environmental Quality Act requires that an additional environmental analysis be performed in connection with a Subsequent Project Approval or other future discretionary approval granted by the City for the Project, the Owner shall pay all of the City's reasonable costs to perform that additional analysis. 4.8 Timing of Development. Because the California Supreme Court held in Pardee Construction Co. v. City of Camarillo, 37 Cal. 3d 465 (1984), that the failure of the parties in that case to provide for the timing of development resulted in a later - adopted initiative restricting the timing of development to prevail over the parties' agreement, it is the specific intent of the Parties to provide for the timing of the Project in this Agreement. To do so, the Parties acknowledge and provide that, subject to express terms of this Agreement including, without limitation, Sections 4.5.5 and 4.5.6, Owner shall have the right, but not the obligation, to complete the Project in such order, at such rate, at such times, and in as many development phases and sub - phases as Owner deems appropriate in its sole subjective business judgment. 4.9 Waiver of TDIF and PFDIF Obligations. Notwithstanding Section 4.5.2 above or any other provision in this Agreement, the two hotels described in Section 5.1 below shall not be subject to any Transportation Development Impact Fees ( "TDIF ") or Public Facility Development Impact Fees ( "PFDIF "). Instead, additional TDIF and PFDIF fees shall be assessed on the residential portions of the Project as described in Section 5.4 of this Agreement. 60093.00025 \8523646.9 in 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 971 5. OWNER'S OBLIGATIONS AND PROVISION OF PUBLIC BENEFITS. 5.1 Construction of Hotels. As set forth in more detail in the Project Approvals, the Owner shall construct or cause to be constructed two hotels of quality not less than AAA Three Diamond rating, or reasonable equivalent as approved by the Director of Development Services, on the Property at the general locations depicted in Exhibit "B," containing a minimum of 300 hotel rooms (approximately 150 rooms each). The City acknowledges that the hotel proposed in Owner's current design review and building permit applications meets this standard. 5.1.1 Owner shall obtain building permits for and shall commence construction of the foundation of one hotel containing a minimum of 148 hotel rooms prior to the City's issuance of any building permits for any residential components of the Project. Owner agrees and acknowledges that City would not have enacted the amendments to the General Plan, Otay Ranch GDP and the SPA Plan included in the Project Approvals but for Owner's agreement to obtain permits for and commence substantial construction of one hotel containing a minimum of 148 hotel rooms prior to obtaining any building permits for any residential components of the Project. Owner further agrees and acknowledges that its failure to satisfy the provisions of this Section shall constitute a default of its obligations under the Agreement and that upon any such default the City may pursue any of the remedies provided in this Agreement. 5.1.2 Owner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain building permits and commence substantial construction of the second hotel containing 150 hotel rooms (or the number of rooms needed to bring the total hotel room count of the two hotels to a total of 300 rooms) prior to the full build -out of and issuance of final occupancy permits for the final components of the residential portion of the Project. If Owner has not obtained building permits and commenced substantial construction of the second hotel prior to the full build -out of and issuance of final occupancy permits for the final components of the residential portion of the Project, Owner's obligation to build the second hotel shall convert automatically into a use restriction on the Property that restricts the use of the portion of the Property designated for the second hotel to hotel uses only. Without approval by the Director of Development Services allowing a different use, the portion of the Property designated for the second hotel shall only be used for a hotel and for no other use. Prior to the full build -out of and issuance of final occupancy permits for the final components of the residential portion of the Project, Owner shall record an express covenant, to the satisfaction of the Director of Development Services, reflecting this use restriction. Owner's failure to record such an express covenant shall be 60093.00025 \8523646.9 -10- 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 972 a breach of this Agreement, but shall not negate in any way the use restriction as reflect in this paragraph. 5.2 Construction of Commercial/Mixed Use. Owner agrees and acknowledges that the SPA Plan originally contemplated only commercial development on the Property. Although the City has agreed to amend the SPA Plan to allow residential development on the Property, commercial development is still an important use for the site. Therefore, Owner agrees to obtain building permits for and commence substantial construction of 15,000 square feet of commercial development on the Property in accordance with the Project Approvals prior to or concurrently with obtaining building permits and commencing construction of the residential development located east of Town Center Drive. In addition to and concurrently with the construction of the 15,000 square feet of commercial development, Owner shall construct an additional 15,000 square feet of the development to construction standards that qualify for commercial occupancy ( "B" or "M" occupancy), but may allow the use of this portion of the development for non - commercial purposes, including residential uses. 5.3 Public Facilities and Services. 5.3.1 Park and Park Site. Based on City standards in effect as of January, 2015, Owner's park obligations (land and improvements) related to the Project would require the dedication and the improvement to City standards of up to a 4.69 acre park on the Property. Owner's actual baseline park obligations shall be calculated at the time park obligations become due for the Project in accordance with City standards, including, but not limited to, Chapter 17.10 of the Chula Vista Municipal Code. Owner shall satisfy its actual park obligations as follows: 5.3.1.1 Granting of Park Site and Development of the Park. Owner shall grant two (2) acres of the Property (the "Park Site ") to the City in a permanent easement for public usage, shall develop a highly amenitized, "turnkey" park (the "Park ") on the Park Site, as described in this Agreement, to the satisfaction of the Director of Development Services. The Park shall generally be located as depicted in Exhibit "B ", with the final location subject to City approval. In order to create an extraordinary public space, the Park shall generally consist of the elements described in Exhibit "E" to this Agreement. Owner shall invest substantially more to the development and granting of the Park than would be typical for a City standard park, up to and including the value equivalent to the dedication and improvement required to achieve the Owner's full park obligations, as calculated at the time park obligations for the Project become due. Owner shall commence construction of the Park prior to the issuance of the three hundredth (300th) 60093.00025 \8523646.9 _11- 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 973 residential building permit and substantially complete the Park within fifteen (15) months of commencement of construction. 5.3.1.2 Audit and Payment of Excess Park Obligations. Owner shall, within sixty (60) days of the date on which the Director of Development Services reasonably determines, in writing, that the Park has been completed, exclusive of the warranty period, provide the City, for its review and approval, all documentation the City reasonably requires, to determine the cost (land and improvement) of the Owner's construction of the Park on the Park Site. The City shall use this information to prepare an audit of the actual costs of the development of the Park on the Park Site. The audit shall also compare the actual costs of the development of the Park on the Park Site (including the actual costs incurred during the warranty period) with the value of the Owner's actual baseline park obligations, calculated at the time the park obligations become due for the Project in accordance with City standards, including, but not limited to, Chapter 17.10 of the Chula Vista Municipal Code. Based on this audit, Owner shall satisfy its remaining park obligations, if any, by paying the excess park obligations to the City's PAD fee account for the development of other parks in Otay Ranch. Such excess park obligations shall be calculated through the audit and shall be paid as either a pro rata permit fees collected in connection with any remaining residential permits or, if no residential permits remain, in a lump sum payment to the City made within sixty (60) days of the audit, or such later date as is approved by the Director of Development Services. 5.3.1.3 Park Maintenance. Owner shall be solely responsible for the cost of maintaining the Park. Prior to the approval of the first final map for the Project, Owner shall have caused the creation of a maintenance Community Facilities District ( "CFD "), or other funding mechanism, to the satisfaction of the Director of Development Services, for the perpetual maintenance of the Park. The perpetual funding mechanism, which may include related agreements with the City, shall have provisions for the inflation of maintenance costs and a restriction on the Owner's ability to unilaterally amend the funding mechanism or its provisions. The City shall be solely responsible for all life cycle and replacement costs for the Park but replacement decisions are at the sole discretion of the City. 5.3.1.4 Park Programming. The City shall control programming of the Park, and leasing and concessions within the Park, subject to the City's customary permitting process. In order to encourage a sense of community for the PA 12 residents and businesses, 60093.00025 \8523646.9 -12- 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 974 Owner, or its Homeowner's Association ( "HOA "), may program up to twelve (12) events per year, or more if approved by the Director of Development Services, subject to reasonable insurance, public health and safety requirements and in accordance with both Chula Vista Policy No. 102 -06 and applicable zoning requirements. Any proposed event shall not exclude attendance by any member of the public; provided, however, that with the approval of the Director of Development Services, Owner, or its HOA, may program up to six (6) events in addition to the above referenced twelve (12) events for events where portions of the Park (but not the entire Park) may be closed to the general public for HOA specific events funded solely by HOA fees. 5.3.2 Community PMose Facilities. Owner shall provide a total of two and one -third (2.3) acres of net usable land for Community Purpose Facilities ( "CPF "). Owner may satisfy this CPF requirement in any manner consistent with Chula Vista Municipal Code Section 19.48.025, which may include the provision of the CPF land offsite or adjustments to the percentage limitations on the types of facilities, including recreational facilities, that may count toward satisfying the CPF requirement, all in the discretion of the Director of Development Services. 5.3.3 Dedication for the Bus Rapid Transit Line. Owner shall dedicate the right -of -way for the bus rapid transit line consistent with the Project Approvals. 5.4 Additional DIF Obligations for Residential Development. In exchange for the waiver of TDIF and PFDIF obligations for the hotels pursuant to Section 4.9 above, and in addition to all other impact fee obligations applicable to the residential portions of the Project, the following additional TDIF and PFDIF obligations shall apply to the residential portions of the Project. 5.4.1 At the time of the request for final inspection of the 50th residential building permit in the Project, Owner shall make a TDIF payment based on 3.3 acres of the "General Commercial" category and PFDIF payment based on 3.3acres of the "Commercial" category. The fee amounts will be calculated according to the fee programs at the time of payment. 5.4.2 At the later of (a) Owner's request for final inspection of the 575th residential building permit, or (b) Owner's request for final inspection of the second hotel, Owner shall make a TDIF payment based on 3.0 acres of the "General Commercial" category and a PFDIF payment based on 3.0 acres of the "Commercial category. The fee amount will be calculated according to the fee programs at the time of payment. If 60093.00025 \8523646.9 -13- 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 975 fewer than 575 total residential units are anticipated (based on Design Review approvals) and the final inspection of the second hotel has already occurred, payment will be made at the time of the request for the final inspection of the last residential building permit in the Project. 6.

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. 9.1 Default by Owner. Owner shall be in default of this Agreement if it does any or any combination of the following: 9.1.1 Willfully violates any order, ruling or decision of any administrative or judicial body having jurisdiction over the Property or the Project. Owner may contest any such order, ruling or decision by appropriate proceedings conducted in good faith, in which event no default of this Agreement shall be deemed to have occurred until there is a final, non - appealable judicial decision that Owner willfully violated such obligation. 9.1.2 Fails to cure a material breach of this Agreement within the time set forth in a written notice of default from the City. 9.2 Default by City. The City shall be in default of this Agreement only if it fails to cure a material breach of this Agreement within the time set forth in a written notice of default from the Owner to the City. 9.3 Notice and Termination. A Party alleging a default by any other Party shall serve written notice thereof. Each such notice shall state with specificity all of the following: 9.3.1 The nature of the alleged default, with reference to the specific Sections of the Agreement that are alleged to have been breached and the specific facts supporting those allegations; 9.3.2 The manner in which the alleged default may be satisfactorily cured. 9.3.3 A period of time in which the default may be cured. The notice of default shall allow at least sixty (60) days to cure the default. If the default is of such a nature as not to be susceptible of cure within sixty (60) days using diligent efforts, then the defaulting Party shall only be deemed to have failed to cure the default if it fails diligently to commence such cure within sixty (60) days or if it fails diligently to prosecute such cure to its conclusion. 9.4 Default Remedies. A Party who complies with the notice of default and opportunity to cure requirements of Section 9.3 may, at its option, institute legal action to cure, correct, or remedy the alleged default as provided in this Agreement. 9.5 Owner's Remedy.

All waivers of performance must be in a writing signed by the Party granting the waiver. There are no implied waivers. Failure by City or Owner to insist upon the strict performance of any provision of this Agreement, irrespective of the length of time for which such failure continues, shall not constitute a waiver of the right to demand strict compliance with this Agreement in the future. A written waiver affects only the specific matter waived and defines the performance waived and the duration of the waiver. Unless expressly stated in a written waiver, future performance of the same or any other condition is not waived. A Party who complies with the notice of default and opportunity to cure requirements of Section 9.3, where applicable, and elects to pursue a legal or equitable remedy available under this Agreement does not waive its right to pursue any other remedy available under this Agreement, unless prohibited by statute, court rules, or judicial precedent. Delays, tolling, and other actions arising under Section 11.16 shall not be considered waivers subject to this Section 9.7. 9.8 Alternative Dispute Resolution. Any dispute between the Parties may, upon the mutual agreement of the Parties, be submitted to mediation, binding arbitration, or any other mutually agreeable form of alternative dispute resolution. While an alternative dispute process is pending, the statute of limitation shall be tolled for any claim or cause of action which either of the Parties may have against the other. 10. ENCUMBRANCES, ASSIGNMENTS, AND RELEASES. 10.1 Discretion to Encumber.

City of Chula Vista Staff Report CONSIDERATION OF WAIVING IRREGULARITIES IN THE BID RECEIVED FOR THE "PAVEMENT MINOR REHABILITATION FY14/15 (SLURRY SEAL) (STL401)" PROJECT PER CITY CHARTER SECTION 1009 RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA ACCEPTING BIDS AND AWARDING A CONTRACT FOR THE "PAVEMENT MINOR REHABILITATION FY14/15 (SLURRY SEAL) (STL401)" PROJECT TO PAVEMENT COATINGS CO. IN THE AMOUNT OF $1,532,589.00; WAIVING IRREGULARITIES IN THE LOW BID RECEIVED; WAIVING CITY COUNCIL POLICY NO. 574 -01; AND AUTHORIZING THE EXPENDITURE OF ALL AVAILABLE CONTINGENCY FUNDS IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $114,944 RECOMMENDED ACTION Council conduct the public hearing and adopt the resolution. SUMMARY On April 15, 2015, the Director of Public Works received sealed bids for the "Pavement Minor Rehabilitation FY14/15 (Slurry Seal) (STL401)" project. The project consists of the removal and replacement of failed asphalt concrete pavement (dig -outs) and the application of Type II Rubber Polymer Modified Slurry (RPMS) seal on various streets in the City. Scope of work on this project also includes traffic control, striping and markings, additional signage and other miscellaneous items of work necessary to complete the project. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The Development Services Director has reviewed the proposed project for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that the project qualifies for a Class 1(c) categorical exemption pursuant to Section 15301, Existing Facilities, of the State CEQA Guidelines. Thus, no further environmental review is necessary. BOARD /COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION Not Applicable DISCUSSION The Public Works Department utilizes a Pavement Management System (PMS) and pavement preservation program to develop the priority list of streets to rehabilitate and preserve throughout the city. This preservation program is designed to extend the roadway life and serviceability through the removal and replacement of deteriorated sections of pavement (dig -outs) and the application of various types of surface treatments. The application of the RPMS slurry seal surface treatment on the street segments shown in Attachment 1 will complete the overall maintenance strategy on these street segments. City of Chula Vista 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 1 of 4 Printed on 5/7/2015 powered by Legistar Page 1010 File #: 15 -0178, Item #: 9. A majority of the streets included in this contract were included in the Capital Improvement Program (CIP). However, during inspection it was found that several other streets in the vicinity of the streets on the original project list were in similar condition and could also benefit from a seal in accordance with the City's Pavement Management System. These 61 street segments are included in Attachment 1, but are listed separately on Attachment 2. It is recommended that these streets be included, because it is more cost - effective to resurface streets within close proximity to each other and because they were originally constructed about the same time period. In addition to applying the RPMS slurry seal, the scope of work also includes the dig -out and repair of asphalt pavement, weed removal and treatment with herbicide, crack filling, pavement striping, markings and installation of new signs, traffic control, protection and restoration of existing improvements and other miscellaneous work necessary to successfully complete the project. On April 15, 2015, the Director of Public Works received three (3) bids for the "Pavement Minor Rehabilitation FY14/15 (Slurry Seal) (STL401)" project. The following bids were received: Staff reviewed the low bid submitted by Pavement Coatings Co. and determined their bid package met all the submittal requirements but with a minor mathematical error of $600 favoring the City. The error occurred in the extended price of bid line item 6. Staff contacted Pavement Coatings Co. and informed them of the discrepancy. The revised bid total did not change the standing of the two lowest bidders. Pavement Coatings Co. submitted a letter to the City (Attachment 3), acknowledging the discrepancy and honoring the revised lower bid total of $1,532,589.00. The bid submitted by Pavement Coatings Co. is below the Engineer's estimate of $1,643,593.37 by $111,004.37 (or approximately 6.75 %). The Contractor has satisfactorily performed construction projects of similar scope for the City in the past and staff has determined their work to be satisfactory. The Contractor's License No. 303609, as well as all listed sub - contractors' licenses, are current and active. Staff therefore recommends awarding a contract in the amount of $1,532,589.00 to Pavement Coatings Co. Additionally, City Council Policy No. 574 -01 allows the Director of Public Works to authorize a maximum cumulative change order(s) amount of $73,000 plus 5% of the original contract over $1,000,000 without City Council prior approval. Based on the contract amount, the maximum aggregate contract increase that may be approved by the Director of Public Works under Policy No. City of Chula Vista Page 2 of 4 Printed on 5/7/2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 1011 CONTRACTOR SUBMITTAL RESULT BID TOTAL SUBMITTED 1 Pavement Coatings Co.- All requirements met but with $1,533,189.00 Jurupa Valley, CA $600.00 Mathematical error.

The error occurred in the extended price of bid line item 6. Staff contacted Pavement Coatings Co. and informed them of the discrepancy. The revised bid total did not change the standing of the two lowest bidders. Pavement Coatings Co. submitted a letter to the City (Attachment 3), acknowledging the discrepancy and honoring the revised lower bid total of $1,532,589.00. The bid submitted by Pavement Coatings Co. is below the Engineer's estimate of $1,643,593.37 by $111,004.37 (or approximately 6.75 %).

The Contractor's License No. 303609, as well as all listed sub - contractors' licenses, are current and active. Staff therefore recommends awarding a contract in the amount of $1,532,589.00 to Pavement Coatings Co. Additionally, City Council Policy No. 574 -01 allows the Director of Public Works to authorize a maximum cumulative change order(s) amount of $73,000 plus 5% of the original contract over $1,000,000 without City Council prior approval. Based on the contract amount, the maximum aggregate contract increase that may be approved by the Director of Public Works under Policy No. City of Chula Vista Page 2 of 4 Printed on 5/7/2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 1011 File #: 15 -0178, Item #: 9. 574 -01 is $99,629.45. The proposed resolution would increase the Director of Public Works' cumulative change order authority to approve change orders, as necessary, up to the 7.5% contingency amount of $114,944, which is an increase of $15,314.55 over Policy No. 574 -01. Increasing the contingency funds will allow staff to continue the project without delay should unforeseen circumstances resulting in increased project costs arise during the course of construction, as well as make adjustments to bid item quantities. Unforeseen conditions include such items as utility conflicts, hazardous materials, unexpected underground conflicts, etc. Any remaining unused contingency funds will be returned to the project fund balance. Disclosure Statement Attachment 4 is a copy of the Contractor's Disclosure Statement. Wage Statement The source of funding for this project is Gas Tax funds. This is a prevailing wage project and Contractors bidding this project are required to pay prevailing wages to persons employed by them for the work under this project. Disadvantaged businesses were encouraged to bid in the Notice Contractors for various trade publications. DECISION -MAKER CONFLICT Staff has reviewed the decision contemplated by this action and has determined that it solely concerns the repair, replacement or maintenance of existing streets, sewer, storm drainage or similar facilities and, as such, the financial effect of the decision on real property is presumed to be not material, pursuant to California Code of Regulations Title 2, sections 18704.2(b)(2). Consequently, this item does not present a conflict under the Political Reform Act (Cal. Gov't Code § 87100, et seq.). Staff is not independently aware, and has not been informed by any City Council member, of any other fact that may constitute a basis for a decision maker conflict of interest in this matter. LINK TO STRATEGIC GOALS The City's Strategic Plan has five major goals: Operational Excellence, Economic Vitality, Healthy Community, Strong and Secure Neighborhoods and a Connected Community. The goal of the "Pavement Minor Rehabilitation FY14/15 (Slurry Seal) (STL401)" project is to support the Strong & Secure Neighborhood strategy identified in the City's Strategic Plan. The maintenance and rehabilitation of public infrastructure is a key City function providing a safe and efficient roadway system for residents, businesses and visitors alike. CURRENT YEAR FISCAL IMPACT The following is a summary of anticipated project costs: FUNDS REQUIRED FOR CONSTRUCTION A. Contract Amount B. Contingencies (Approx. 7.5 %) C. Staff $1,532,589.00 $ Time, Material Testing & Other Costs (Approx.10 %) 114,944.00 $ 153,259.00 CONSTRUCTION TOTAL $1,800,792.00 City of Chula Vista Page 3 of 4 Printed on 5/7/2015 2015 -05 -12 Agenda Packet Page 1012 File #: 15 -0178, Item #: 9. There is no direct impact to the Gas Tax Fund as sufficient funding is available in the project to cover construction and staff costs.. ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT Upon completion of the project, the improvements will require only routine City street maintenance. The improvements are anticipated to increase the life of the streets included, mitigating the cost of possible future major repairs. ATTACHMENTS 1. Street Segments and Plats 2.
