Background: The project site (Figure 1) is located within the Inspiration Heights neighborhood in a Residential Hillside (RHS) zoning district and is surrounded by hillside single-family residences. The RHS district is intended to balance residential uses with preserving natural settings and protecting life and property from natural hazards. The property is accessed off San Juan Road. The site contains a 5,302 sf two story home developed in 1995. Application Request The applicant, Chris Pomodoro of Pomodoro Architects, is proposing to add approximately 2,481 sf rear yard paved terrace area, with a spa, outdoor kitchen, fire pits, and planters. A portion of the terrace area will be covered by a new trellis and a 568-sf roof deck, accessed via the second floor of the existing residence and an exterior staircase. The principal dwelling area will have some minor façade changes that include several new windows, an extended bay window in the living room, and an extended 46-sf side balcony. Five trees will be removed as part of landscape modifications; however, none are considered protected per the City of Cupertino’s Municipal Code Chapter 14.18: Protected Trees. Please refer to Attachment 2 for site plans and renderings. Analysis: Hillside Exception The RHS Ordinance, Chapter 19.40 of the Cupertino Municipal Code, prohibits any additions to existing structures within the 15% site line of prominent ridgeline unless an Figure 1 Site Aerial with the prominent ridge line in yellow. 13 PC 2-27-2024 13 of 163 exception is granted. These additions shall not further encroach into the site line and add height or bulk which may increase the disruption to the 15% ridgeline site line. The intent of the requirement is to minimize and discourage unnecessary visual disturbances. However, if the project/ property presents unique circumstances or hardships (typically physical/topographic challenges), then the RHS ordinance allows a process by which the City may consider an exception, provided that the project is designed to minimize the extent of the exception and impacts to the surrounding hillside. The City has historically granted exceptions to allow reasonable development of steeper hillside properties planned for residential use. As demonstrated in Figure 1, the prominent ridge line runs through the middle of the property, dissecting the existing home and rear yard area. Further, much of the property near the property line has slopes greater than 30%. Therefore, almost any development on the property, outside of the existing building footprint and the adjacent rear yard area, cannot be constructed without disturbing steep slope sides. Accordingly, the only feasible location to construct a terraced area would be on the flatter portion of the parcel on the prominent ridge line as is proposed here. The siting and design of the proposed roof deck and terraced area minimizes the need for excessive grading as it is adjacent to the house. A visual analysis has been conducted from established vantage points on the valley floor which establishes that the proposed development, even with the removal of the proposed trees, does not substantially affect the views of the hills from the valley floor (see Attachment 3). Therefore, except that the proposed development occurs on a prominent ridgeline, the proposed roof deck and terraced area complies with all other aspects of the RHS zone’s Figure 2 Landscape Plan showing area of work (circled in red) and slope areas over 30% grade hashed. See Attachment 2 for site plan. 14 PC 2-27-2024 14 of 163 site development regulations. The development will be constructed with appropriate geotechnical review and inspections as described below. Cupertino Municipal Code Findings The Cupertino Municipal Code includes ‘findings’ for approval of various permits necessary to approve the proposed project. These provide a framework for making decisions and facilitating an orderly analysis of the review of a project. Listed below are the findings for the Hillside Exception sought by the applicant that the City must make in rendering a decision whether to grant an exception on this project. Hillside Exception (CMC 19.40.080) 1. The proposed development will not be injurious to property or improvements in the area nor be detrimental to public health and safety; The proposed site is surrounded by existing hillside single-family residences. A geotechnical study has been conducted for the proposed project and a peer review will be conducted for the development prior to issuance of Building Permits. In addition, the development is required to meet the Best Management Practices (BMPs), as required by the State Water Resources Control Board and the Bay Area Air Quality Management District’s (BAAQMD) air quality standards for construction activities. The project is also required to adhere to the City’s C.3 Municipal Permit for storm water runoff management. Therefore, the development will not be injurious to property or improvements in the area nor be detrimental to the public health and safety. 2. The proposed development will not create a hazardous condition for pedestrian or vehicular traffic; The project will not create any new traffic impacts and/or driveways to San Juan Road. Therefore, the development will not create a hazardous condition for pedestrian or vehicular traffic. 3. The proposed development has legal access to public streets and public services are available to serve the development; The property is accessed by San Juan Road. In addition, water and utilities are available in the street. The proposed project does not propose any changes to such access or services. Therefore, the development has legal access to public streets and public services to serve the development. 4. The proposed development requires an exception which involves the least modification of, or deviation from, the development regulations prescribed in this chapter necessary to accomplish a reasonable use of the parcel; 15 PC 2-27-2024 15 of 163 Any onsite development that disrupts the 15% sight line of the prominent ridgeline requires a Hillside Exception per the Municipal Code. Development cannot feasibly occur on the property without a Hillside Exception request, as the site is constrained by a prominent ridgeline that runs through the middle of the property. The roof deck and other modifications to the principal dwelling unit do not add height and bulk to the structure, and are being made consistent with the regulations in the Residential Hillside (RHS) Ordinance. 5. All alternative locations for development on the parcel have been considered and have been found to create greater environmental impacts than the location of the proposed development; The paved terraced area is proposed in a relatively flat portion of the property in order to avoid excessive grading of the site. Further, the site is constrained by steep slopes that limit areas on the parcel where development may occur. The siting and design of the terraced area will minimize grading and minimize the removal of landscaping necessary to develop the property in a manner consistent with the purpose of the Residential Hillside Ordinance. Other alternative locations for development on the parcel would result in greater grading on the site, removal of additional landscaping and/or native trees, and possibly increase disruption of the 15% sight line of the prominent ridgeline. The proposed development will be located to minimize environmental and grading impacts on the site. 6. The proposed development does not consist of structures on or near known geological or environmental hazards which have been determined by expert testimony to be unsafe or hazardous to structures or persons residing therein (See General Plan Policy 2-49); The geotechnical report did not indicate any significant conflicts with geological or environmental hazards. Further, a peer review of the Geologic/fault investigation and geotechnical report will be peer reviewed by the City’s consultant prior to issuance of Building Permits. Therefore, the proposed development does not consist of structures that have been determined by expert testimony to be unsafe or hazardous to structures or persons residing therein. 7. The proposed development includes grading and drainage plans which will ensure that erosion and scarring of the hillsides caused by necessary construction of roads, housing sites, and improvements will be minimized (See General Plan Policies 2 -53, 2-54 and 2-57); The proposed development follows, as closely as possible, the primary natural contours of the lot to minimize erosion and scarring of the hillsides caused by necessary construction of the housing site and improvements. Drainage and grading plans have been reviewed and will 16 PC 2-27-2024 16 of 163 continue to be reviewed by the City Engineer and the City’s consultant geotechnical engineers to ensure the safety of the development and neighboring residences. 8. The proposed development does not consist of structures which would disrupt the natural silhouette of ridgelines as viewed from established vantage points on the valley floor unless either: a. The location of a structure on a ridgeline is necessary to avoid greater negative environmental impacts; or b. The structure could not otherwise be physically located on the parcel and the size of the structure is the minimum which is necessary to allow for a reasonable use of the parcel (See General Plan Policies 2-46, 2-47 and 2-48); The proposed roof deck and terrace area will be largely located in an area that previously encompassed a deck to avoid excessive grading of the site. Additionally, the visual study from established vantage points on the valley floor do not indicate that the proposed development is more visually intrusive than earlier. Development cannot feasibly occur on the property without a Hillside Exception request as the site is constrained by a prominent ridgeline that runs through the middle of the property. Further, the site is constrained by steep slopes that limit areas on the parcel where development may occur. The siting and design minimizes grading and removal of landscaping necessary to develop the property in a manner consistent with the Residential Hillside Ordinance. Other alternative locations for development on the parcel would result in greater grading on the site, removal of additional landscaping and/or native trees, and possibly increase disruption of the 15% sight line of the prominent ridgeline. The proposed development will be located to minimize environmental and grading impacts on the site. 9. The proposed development consists of structures incorporating designs, colors, materials, and outdoor lighting which blend with the natural hillside environment and which are designed in such a manner as to reduce the effective visible mass, including building height, as much as possible without creating other negative environmental impacts (See General Plan Policies 2-46, 2-50, 2-51 and 2-52); The applicant is required to use natural earth tone and/or vegetation colors, which blend with the natural hillside environment (as a condition of approval) and has designed the project in such a manner as to reduce the effective visible mass to surrounding neighbors as much as possible. 10. The proposed development is located on the parcel as far as possible from public open space preserves or parks (if visible there from), riparian corridors, and wildlife habitats unless such location will create other, more negative environmental impacts (See General Plan Policies 2-55, 5-14 and 5-28); 17 PC 2-27-2024 17 of 163 The parcel is not located adjacent to public open space preserves, parks, a riparian corridor, or wildlife habitats. The project site is adjacent to other developed properties with similar zoning. 11. The proposed development includes a landscape plan, which retains as many specimen trees as possible, which utilizes drought-tolerant native plants and ground covers consistent with nearby vegetation, and which minimizes lawn areas (See 1993 General Plan Policies 2-54, 5-15 and 5-16); The project is conditioned to provide a landscape plan to be reviewed and approved prior to Building Permit issuance. The project shall also comply with Chapter 14.15: Landscape Ordinance of the City of Cupertino Municipal Code (CMC). Additionally, since the site is located in an area designated as Wildland Urban Interface by CMC Chapter 16.74, fire-prone plant materials and highly flammable mulches are strongly discouraged. In conformance with California Public Resources Code Section 4291, plants shall be selected, arranged, and maintained to provide defensible space for wildfire protection. The installation of invasive plant species and noxious weeds are also prohibited. Further, Residential Hillside homes are required to minimize turf areas on hillsides and turf may not be planted on slopes greater than 25%. Through the proposed site design and conditions of approval, which limit invasive species of plants and turf areas, a balance between the residential development and preservation of the natural hillside setting will be maintained. 12. The proposed development confines solid fencing to the areas near a structure rather than around the entire site (See General Plan Policy 5-17); and No fencing is proposed or approved as part of this project. 13. The proposed development is otherwise consistent with the City's General Plan and with the purposes of this chapter as described in Section 19.40.010. The development meets all the development standards for RHS zoned properties and is consistent with the City's General Plan and with the purposes of Chapter 19.40 as described in Section 19.40.010. These have been described in detail in each of the findings above. Geological Review: The property is in a hillside and fault rupture hazard zone. The City’s Geotechnical Consultant is conditioned to peer-review the applicant’s geotechnical reports prior to the issuance of Building Permits. Environmental Assessment: The project is categorically exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970 (Public Resources Code section 21000 et seq.) (“CEQA”), together with the State CEQA Guidelines (California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Section 15000 et seq.) (hereinafter, "CEQA Guidelines"), pursuant to CEQA 18 PC 2-27-2024 18 of 163 Guidelines section 15303. The exemption applies to new construction or conversion of small facilities or structures, including single-family residences (see CEQA Guidelines § 15303(a)) and accessory structures, such as patios and swimming pools (see CEQA Guidelines § 15303(e)), and none of the exceptions to the categorical exemptions in CEQA Guidelines section 15300.2 apply. Other Department/Agency Review: The City’s Building Division, Public Works Department, and the Santa Clara County Fire Department have reviewed and conditionally approved the project. Their pre-hearing comments/conditions have been incorporated as conditions of approval in the draft resolution (Attachment 1).

(“CEQA”), together with the State CEQA Guidelines (California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Section 15000 et seq.) (hereinafter, "CEQA Guidelines"), the City staff has independently studied the proposed Project and has determined that the Project is exempt from environmental review pursuant to the categorical exemption in CEQA Guidelines section 15303 for the reasons set forth in the staff report dated February 23, 2021 and incorporated herein; and WHEREAS, on February 27, 2024, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing to receive public testimony on the Project, including the categorical CEQA exemption in CEQA Guidelines section 15303, and reviewed and considered the information contained in the staff report pertaining to the Project, all other pertinent documents, and all written and oral statements received by the Planning Commission at or prior to the public hearing; and 21 PC 2-27-2024 21 of 163 Resolution No. DRAFT EXC-2023-006 February 27, 2024 Page 2 WHEREAS, the applicant has met the burden of proof required to support said application; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission finds as follows with regard to this application: 1. The proposed development will not be injurious to property or improvement s in the area nor be detrimental to public health and safety; The proposed site is surrounded by existing hillside single-family residences. A geotechnical study has been conducted for the proposed project and a peer review will be conducted for the development prior to issuance of Building Permits. In addition, the development is required to meet the Best Management Practices (BMPs), as required by the State Water Resources Control Board and the Bay Area Air Quality Management District’s (BAAQMD) air quality standards for construction activities. The project is also required to adhere to the City’s C.3 Municipal Permit for storm water runoff management. Therefore, the development will not be injurious to property or improvements in the area nor be detrimental to the public health and safety. 2. The proposed development will not create a hazardous condition for pedest rian or vehicular traffic; The project will not create any new traffic impacts and/or driveways to San Juan Road. Therefore, the development will not create a hazardous condition for pedestrian or vehicular traffic. 3. The proposed development has legal access to public streets and public services are available to serve the development; The property is accessed by San Juan Road. In addition, water and utilities are available in the street. The proposed project does not propose any changes to such access or services. Therefore, the development has legal access to public streets and public services to serve the development. 4. The proposed development requires an exception which involves the least modification of, or deviation from, the development regulations prescribed in this chapter necessary to accomplish a reasonable use of the parcel; Any onsite development that disrupts the 15% sight line of the prominent ridgeline requires a Hillside Exception per the Municipal Code. Development cannot feasibly occur on the property without a Hillside Exception request, as the site is constrained by a prominent ridgeline that runs through the middle of the property. The roof deck and other modifications to the principal dwelling unit do not add height and bulk to the structure, and are being made consistent with the regulations in the Residential Hillside (RHS) Ordinance. 22 PC 2-27-2024 22 of 163 Resolution No. DRAFT EXC-2023-006 February 27, 2024 Page 3 5. All alternative locations for development on the parcel have been considered and have been found to create greater environmental impacts than the location of the proposed development; The paved terraced area is proposed in a relatively flat portion of the property in order to avoid excessive grading of the site. Further, the site is constrained by steep slopes that limit areas on the parcel where development may occur. The siting and design of the terraced area will minimize grading and minimize the removal of landscaping necessary to develop the property in a manner consistent with the purpose of the Residential Hillside Ordinance. Other alternative locations for development on the parcel would result in greater grading on the site, removal of additional landscaping and/or native trees, and possibly increase disruption of the 15% sight line of the prominent ridgeline. The proposed development will be located to minimize environmental and grading impacts on the site. 6. The proposed development does not consist of structures on or near known geological or environmental hazards which have been determined by expert testimony to be unsafe or hazardous to structures or persons residing therein (See General Plan Policy 2-49); The geotechnical report did not indicate any significant conflicts with geological or environmental hazards. Further, a peer review of the Geologic/fault investigation and geotechnical report will be peer reviewed by the City’s consultant prior to issuance of Building Permits. Therefore, the proposed development does not consist of structures that have been determined by expert testimony to be unsafe or hazardous to structures or persons residing therein. 7. The proposed development includes grading and drainage plans which will ensure that erosion and scarring of the hillsides caused by necessary construction of roads, housing sites, and improvements will be minimized (See General Plan Policies 2-53, 2-54 and 2-57); The proposed development follows, as closely as possible, the primary natural contours of the lot to minimize erosion and scarring of the hillsides caused by necessary construction of the housing site and improvements. Drainage and grading plans have been reviewe d and will continue to be reviewed by the City Engineer and the City’s consultant geotechnical engineers to ensure the safety of the development and neighboring residences. 8. The proposed development does not consist of structures which would disrupt the natural silhouette of ridgelines as viewed from established vantage points on the valley floor unless either: a. The location of a structure on a ridgeline is necessary to avoid greater negative environmental impacts; or 23 PC 2-27-2024 23 of 163 Resolution No. DRAFT EXC-2023-006 February 27, 2024 Page 4 b. The structure could not otherwise be physically located on the parcel and the size of the structure is the minimum which is necessary to allow for a reasonable use of the parcel (See General Plan Policies 2-46, 2-47 and 2-48); The proposed roof deck and terrace area will be largely located in an area that previously encompassed a deck to avoid excessive grading of the site. Additionally, the visual study from established vantage points on the valley floor do not indicate that the proposed development is more visually intrusive than earlier. Development cannot feasibly occur on the property without a Hillside Exception request as the site is constrained by a prominent ridgeline that runs through the middle of the property. Further, the site is constrained by steep slopes that limit areas on the parcel where development may occur. The siting and design minimizes grading and removal of landscaping necessary to develop the property in a manner consistent with the Residential Hillside Ordinance. Other alternative locations for development on the parcel would result in greater grading on the site, removal of additional landscaping and/or native trees, and possibly increase disruption of the 15% sight line of the prominent ridgeline. The proposed development will be located to minimize environmental and grading impacts on the site. 9. The proposed development consists of structures incorporating designs, colors, materials, and outdoor lighting which blend with the natural hillside environment and which are designed in such a manner as to reduce the effective visible mass, including building height, as much as possible without creating other negative environmental impacts (See General Plan Policies 2-46, 2-50, 2-51 and 2-52); The applicant is required to use natural earth tone and/or vegetation colors, which blend with the natural hillside environment (as a condition of approval) and has designed the project in such a manner as to reduce the effective visible mass to surrounding neighbors as much as possible. 10. The proposed development is located on the parcel as far as possible from public open space preserves or parks (if visible there from), riparia n corridors, and wildlife habitats unless such location will create other, more negative environmental impacts (See General Plan Policies 2-55, 5-14 and 5-28); The parcel is not located adjacent to public open space preserves, parks, a riparian corridor, or wildlife habitats. The project site is adjacent to other developed properties with a similar zoning. 11. The proposed development includes a landscape plan, which retains as many specimen trees as possible, which utilizes drought-tolerant native plants and ground covers consistent with nearby vegetation, and which minimizes lawn areas (See General Plan Policies 2-54, 5-15 and 5-16); 24 PC 2-27-2024 24 of 163 Resolution No. DRAFT EXC-2023-006 February 27, 2024 Page 5 The project is conditioned to provide a landscape plan to be reviewed and approved prior to Building Permit issuance. The project shall also comply with Chapter 14.15: Landscape Ordinance of the City of Cupertino Municipal Code (CMC). Additionally, since the site is located in an area designated as Wildland Urban Interface by CMC Chapter 16.74, fire-prone plant materials and highly flammable mulches are strongly discouraged. In conformance with California Public Resources Code Section 4291, plants shall be selected, arranged, and maintained to provide defensible space for wildfire protection. The installation of invasive plant species and noxious weeds are also prohibited. Further, Residential Hillside homes are required to minimize turf areas on hillsides and turf may not be planted on slopes greater than 25%. Through the proposed site design and conditions of approval, which limit invasive species of plants and turf areas, a balance between the residential development and preservation of the natural hillside setting will be maintained. 12. The proposed development confines solid fencing to the areas near a structure rather than around the entire site (See General Plan Policy 5-17); and No fencing is proposed or approved as part of this project. 13. The proposed development is otherwise consistent with the City's General Plan and with the purposes of this chapter as described in Section 19.40.010. The development meets all the development standards for RHS zoned properties and is consistent with the City's General Plan and with the purposes of Chapter 19.40 as described in Section 19.40.010. These have been described in detail in each of the findings above. WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has independently reviewed and considered the Project and the basis for the exemption prior to taking any approval actions on the Project, and exercising its independent judgment, based upon the entire record before it, has determined that the Project is exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15303, which applies to new construction or conversion of single-family residences and accessory structures; and NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission takes the following actions: 1. Exercises its independent judgment and determines that the Project is exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15303. The exemption in CEQA Guidelines section 15303 applies to new construction or conversion of single-family residences and accessory structures. The proposed project is accessory to the existing single-family residence. 25 PC 2-27-2024 25 of 163 Resolution No. DRAFT EXC-2023-006 February 27, 2024 Page 6 2.

NESTING BIRDS Nests of raptors and other birds shall be protected when in active use, as required by the federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act and the California Department of Fish and Game Code. a. Construction and tree removal/pruning activities shall be scheduled to avoid the nesting season to the extent feasible. If feasible, tree removal and/or pruning shall be completed before the start of the nesting season to help preclude nesting. The nesting season for most birds and raptors in the San Francisco Bay area extends from February 1 through August 31. Preconstruction surveys (described below) are not required for tree removal or construction activities outside the nesting period. b. If construction activities and any required tree removal occur during the nesting season (February 1 and August 31), a qualified ornithologist shall be required to conduct surveys prior to tree removal or construction activities. Preconstruction surveys shall be conducted no more than 14 days prior to the start of tree removal, pruning or construction. Preconstruction surveys shall be repeated at 14-day intervals until construction has been initiated in the area after which surveys can be stopped. During this survey, the ornithologist shall inspect all trees and other possible nesting habitats in and immediately adjacent to the construction areas for nests. c. If the survey does not identify any nesting birds that would be affected by construction activities, no further mitigation is required. If an active nest containing viable eggs or young birds is found sufficiently close to work areas to be disturbed by these activities, their locations shall be documented and protective measures implemented under the direction of the qualified ornithologist until the nests no longer contain eggs or young birds. d. Protective measures shall include establishment of clearly delineated exclusion zones (i.e. demarcated by identifiable fencing, such as orange construction fencing or equivalent) around each nest location as determined by the qualified 29 PC 2-27-2024 29 of 163 Resolution No. DRAFT EXC-2023-006 February 27, 2024 Page 10 ornithologist, taking into account the species of birds nesting, their tolerance for disturbance and proximity to existing development. In general, exclusion zones shall be a minimum of 300 feet for raptors and 75 feet for passerines and other birds. The active nest within an exclusion zone shall be monitored on a weekly basis throughout the nesting season to identify signs of disturbance and confirm nesting status. The radius of an exclusion zone may be increased by the qualified biologist, if project activities are determined to be adversely affecting the nesting birds. Exclusion zones may be reduced by the qualified biologist only in consultation with California Department of Fish and Wildlife. The protection measures and buffers shall remain in effect until the young have left the nest and are foraging independently or the nest is no longer active. e. A final report on nesting birds and raptors, including survey methodology, survey date(s), map of identified active nests (if any), and protection measures (if required), shall be submitted to the Planning Manager, through the building permit review process, and be completed to the satisfaction of the Community Development Director prior to the start of grading. 11. CONSULTATION WITH OTHER DEPARTMENTS The applicant is responsible to consult with other departments and/or agencies with regard to the proposed project for additional conditions and requirements. Any misrepresentation of any submitted data may invalidate an approval by the Community Development Department. 12.

Subject: 2023 General Plan and Housing Element Annual Progress Reports (APR). Receive the General Plan and Housing Element APRs. CITY OF CUPERTINO Printed on 2/23/2024Page 1 of 1 powered by Legistar™46 PC 2-27-2024 46 of 163 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT Meeting: February 27, 2024 Subject 2023 General Plan and Housing Element Annual Progress Report (APR) Recommended Action Receive the General Plan and Housing Element APRs. Discussion Background: State law (Government Code Section 65400) requires that the City provide an annual report, on or before April 1 of each year, to the legislative body (the City Council in the case of Cupertino) regarding the status of the General Plan and progress in its implementation, including meeting its share of regional housing needs, and local efforts to remove governmental constraints to the maintenance, improvement, and development of housing. The report must also be sent to the Office of Planning and Research and Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). See Government Code § 65400(a)(2)(A)-(J). In March 2023, the General Plan and Housing Element APRs were presented to the City Council in compliance with State law and past practice. Councilmembers did not have any substantial comments on the report. Analysis: General Plan Annual Report The current General Plan APR format has been used for the past several years. The Policies and Strategies that support the General Plan Goals in each Element are arranged in tabular form as the APR (See Attachment 1). Most Strategies and Policies are implemented on an ongoing process through the Municipal Code and through development project review and are identified in the APR. The purpose of this meeting is to allow the Planning Commission to receive the General Plan APR. Edits have been made to all sections of the report to reflect the work done by City staff in COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT PLANNING DIVISION CITY HALL 10300 TORRE AVENUE • CUPERTINO, CA 95014-3255 (408) 777-3308 • FAX (408) 777-3333 47 PC 2-27-2024 47 of 163 implementing General Plan policies and strategies. These edits are reflected in the attached document in bold and underlined text. In addition to the review of Planning Permits and building permits, Planning staff has responded to over 1,300 public counter inquiries in person, over 150 virtual appointments inquiries and over 1,000 email inquiries from members of the public, the City’s Planning staff also worked on Municipal Code amendments in 2023, which were adopted by Council in February 2024, related to Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) and clarifying the process to allow certain uses in the BA zoning district. Staff has also continued to tackle preparation of the Housing Element and associated amendments to implementing documents. Housing Element APR The Housing Element APR must be completed on forms provided by HCD. Pursuant to Government Code Section 65400, local governments must provide, each year, an annual report for the previous calendar year to the legislative body (City Council), OPR, and HCD. HCD prepares the form template that cities must submit to comply with these statutory requirements in advance of the April 1, 2024, deadline. In past years, the report focused on building permits issued for new housing units by affordability. Since 2018, and every year after that, various state laws have expanded reporting requirements related to housing development projects, e.g. SB 35, state density bonus law and SB 330. In recent years, in addition to data that has historically been requested, additional data is requested including but not limited to: address and APN of projects, date application is deemed complete, date of entitlement approval, date of issuance of permits, date certificate of occupancies were granted, use of density bonus law, which portions of the density bonus law are being utilized and what standards are being requested to be waived, incentives that are being requested, and use of other state law provisions (such as SB35, AB2011, SB330, SB9 etc.). All required data and progress in implementing existing Housing Element policies and strategies has been reported on the requisite forms and will be submitted to HCD prior to April 1 as required by state law (See Attachment 2). The tables on the following page summarize the Regional Housing Needs Analysis (RHNA) Generation by Developers (i.e. Building Permits issued in 2023) (see Table 1) and the Project Entitlements by City in 2023 (see Table 2). 48 PC 2-27-2024 48 of 163 TABLE 1: BUILDING PERMITS ISSUED BY INCOME CATEGORY BETWEEN 2023 AND 2031 Extremely Low/ Very Low (0-50% of AMI) Low (51-80% of AMI) Moderate (81-120% of AMI) Above Moderate (over 120% AMI) Total Units Projected Need (RHNA) 1,193 687 755 1,953 4,588 Net New Units Entitled by City (Not Produced) 271 624 46 2,127 3,062 Building Permits Applied for By Developers and Issued by City 2023 10 10 29 128 177 Total RHNA Production 10 10 29 128 177 Balance 1,183 677 726 1,869 4,455 TABLE 2: PROJECT ENTITLEMENTS APPROVED BY INCOME CATEGORY BETWEEN 2023 AND 2031 Extremely Low/ Very Low (0-50% of AMI) Low (51-80% of AMI) Moderate (81-120% of AMI) Above Moderate (over 120% AMI) Total Net New Units Projected Need (RHNA) 1,193 687 755 1,953 4,588 Total Building Permits Issued 10 10 29 128 177 RHNA balance 1,183 677 726 1,869 4,455 Projects Entitled by City * (Not Yet Produced) Westport (The Oaks) – BP under review - - - 123 123 The Rise (Vallco) 267 623 - 1,779 2,669 Canyon Crossing 1 - 2 15 18 McClellan subdivision – BP under review - - 6 5** 5 Marina Plaza 2.0 - - 36 170 206 Coach House/1655 S.

The Bianchi Project (7 Townhomes) involved the demolition of 4 existing units. *** Balance cannot be less than zero and cannot be applied to other income levels if there is excess production in any one income level. 49 PC 2-27-2024 49 of 163 In addition to the data collected by HCD, HCD requires an update on the activity conducted in the implementation of the Housing Policies and Strategies in the General Plan. This is reflected in both Attachment 1 and Attachment 2 (Table D). The City continues to support the production of housing, particularly affordable housing by providing technical support, and guidance. The City continues to allocate Community Development Block Group (CDBG) federal funds and Human Service Grant (HSG) funds to eligible and deserving projects. It also continues to implement its local Below Market Rate (BMR) Housing Program and the Non-residential BMR program. The funds received are collected in the City’s BMR Affordable Housing Fund (AHF) and expended on eligible projects with City Council authorization. Next Steps These APRs will be presented to City Council in March 2024. _______________________________________________________________________ Prepared by: Piu Ghosh, Planning Manager Alec Vybiral, Housing Coordinator Reviewed and Approved for Submission by: Luke Connolly, Acting Director of Community Development Attachments: 1.
