SUMMARY
AGENDA NO. ;15
AGENDA DATE: November 6, 2006
SUBJECT:
Authorize the Mayor to send a letter on behalf of the City Council supporting the proposed
Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA)
formula. .
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Council authorize the Mayor to forward the attached letter supporting
the formula developed by the Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) Committee. The
formula allocates housing units based on housing unit growth, existing and projected jobs and
projected growth around transit stations. The growth numbers are based on Projections 2007,
which significantly reduced the projected job generation in Cupertino.
BACKGROUND:
Every seven years the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) conducts a process to
allocate the fair share of housing growth to jurisdictions in the nine-county Bay Area region. The
current effort represents the fourth RHNA cycle. The Director of Community Development was
one of three representatives from Santa Clara County who participated on the Regional Housing
Needs Allocation Committee, along with Laurel Prevetti, Deputy Director of Planning for San
Jose and Regina Brisco, a Housing Planner for Gilroy.
DISCUSSION:
The Regional Housing Needs Allocation Committee formula allocates housing units based on
housing unit growth, existing and projected jobs and projected growth around transit stations.
The growth numbers are based on Projections 2007, which significantly reduced the projected
job generation in Cupertino. The combination of the formula and the revised projections 2007
housing and job growth, results in an allocation to Cupertino of 1.084 housing units versus 2.720
units allocated in the orevious RHNA orocess.
Attached are the allocations under the RHNA Committee formula. The column on the left
outlines a potential allocation for all cities assuming the allocation from the State for the nine
County Bay Area is the same as the previous RHNA process, which was 230,743 housing units.
The final number from the State could be higher or lower. Santa Clara County historically gets

the highest allocation at around 25% of the regional total or about 58,000 units based on the
previous allocation. The column on the far right represents the number allocated in the last
RHNA process.
Proposed Formula
The formula recommended by the RHNA committee is based on:
. 40% projected housing growth
. 20% existing jobs as of 2007
. 20% projected job growth between 2007 and 2014
. 10% job growth within 1/2 mile of a transit stop
. 10% housing growth within 1/2 mile of a transit stop
The number allocated is a function of the formula and the projected number of job and housing
growth by Projections 2007. Planning staff, particularly Senior Planner Peter Gilli, worked
extensively with ABAG projections staff to realistically count jobs and get the number of
housing units to reflect recent growth and annexations. Consequently, the job numbers dropped
about 8,000 jobs from past projections and the number of housing units increased to reflect
annexations and new housing units. Cupertino's numbers in Projections 2007 are much closer to
a jobslhousing balance than previous projections. Enclosed is an ABAG staff memo dated
October 17, 2006 "RHNA Allocation Methodology Scenarios - Round 2" which provides more
explanation on the different formulas and factors.
Next Steps
The RHNA Committee recommendation goes to the ABAG Executive Board on November 16,
2006. City Manager David Knapp sits on the ABAG Executive Board. The ABAG Board has
until December 31, 2006, to adopt the fmal formula after which there is a 60-day public comment
period before it becomes effective. Following ABAG adoption of the formula the State needs to
issue the final number of housing units to the nine-county ABAG region which is expected
before March 2007. At that time we will know our fmal fair-share number.
Agencies taking a higher allocation, particularly San Francisco and San Jose and some of the
smaller agencies with higher numbers such as Palo Alto, may lobby for a formula that is more
favorable to them. Also, the fmal numbers from the State have not come down so the numbers
could grow regardless of the final formula. This allocation applies to the period 2007 through
2014, at which point ABAG will go through this process again.
After the ABAG Exec Board and State actions we will know the new numbers for the GP. Even
so, the number of housing units is likely to increase a little over the number currently in the GP
because these numbers are for the period 2007-2014 and are over and above our previous fair-
share allocation. After all of the above it will be appropriate to amend the GP Housing Element.
We will spend late 2007 through 2008 going through the public hearing process. Final amended
Housing Elements are due in the ABAG region before June 2009.

Subject: Support for the RHNA Committee allocation formula
Dear ABAG Executive Committee Members
The Cupertino City Council is pleased to support the allocation formula developed by the
Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) committee. The RHNA Committee spent
the past six months going over the options and discussing reasonable methodologies to
allocate housing units.
The formula allocates a fair share of housing based on where growth has occurred in the
past and where growth is projected to occur in accordance in Projections 2007 and the
factors in the State statute. The formula for the first time, allocates a portion of the
housing based on smart growth principles by encouraging growth near transit stations.
The Bay Area needs to direct growth along the transit corridors and discourage suburban
sprawl if we are going to limit congestion. The formula gives communities planning on
growth to choose smart growth by balancing job generation with housing units.
Thank you for opportunity to participate and comment on the process.
Sincerely,
Richard Lowenthal

RHNA Allocation Methodology Scenarios - Round 2
Background
As part of the Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) process, the Housing Methodology
Committee (HMC) has been tasked with assisting ABAG staff in developing the methodology for
allocating shares of the regional housing need to each city and county in the Bay Area.
By statute, there are nine factors that must be considered in developing the allocation methodology.!
Factors are used to assign a share of the region's total housing need to individual jurisdictions. The
factors cannot be used to change the total regional housing need. Therefore, the factors are always
expressed as a share of the regional total. If used as factors, these same shares are then used to
assign a proportion of the regional housing need to the jurisdiction.
Over the past several months, the HMC has been working to determine which factors should be
included in the methodology. The committee's discussion has been framed by the need for the
methodology to meet the statutory RHNA objectives as well as to further the Bay Area's regional
goals for growth.
In the interest of developing the allocation methodology, the HMC requested that ABAG staff
generate several possible allocation scenarios for their consideration. The scenarios include factors
related to housing, jobs, and areas served by public transportation.
The flrst set of scenarios was discussed at the October 12th HMC meeting. The committee felt that
we should be more consistent in matching job and housing growth, or jobs and housing at a single
point in time. The HMC also asked us to look using jobs in transit areas in the methodology. This
memo describes the scenarios that were developed based on feedback from the committee. The
different ways of using these factors, and the policy implications of each, are also presented.
Revised Regional Allocation Scenarios
The HMC has identtfled three broad categories of factors to be considered for inclusion in the
methodology:
.
Housing
Employment
Access to public transit

RHNA Allocation Methodology Scenarios - Round 2
10/17/06
Page 2
The allocation scenarios are separated into two major categories. The flrst three scenarios include
only factors related to housing and employment. They demonstrate a "Moderate Transit Emphasis"
because they are based on Projections, which incorporates the regional smart growth principles to
direct growth to existing communities and areas ,near public transit.2
The rest of the scenarios (Scenarios 4 through 10) are also based on Projections, but they include
"transit" as an additional factor, and therefore represent a "greater transit emphasis". Only existing,
flxed transit infrastructure, such as heavy and light rail systems and ferries3 are included. Transit is
included in four distinct ways: 1) housing growth near transit, 2) total housing (2014) near transit, 3)
employment growth near transit, and 4) total (2014) employment near transit. The sample scenarios
use the transit factor in various combinations of these four distinct variables to demonstrate
different policy options.
All scenarios are based on the draft numbers from the Projections 2007 forecast. These numbers are
currently being reviewed by local governments, and therefore it is likely that some changes will
occur. Also, the total regional need number in the scenarios is from the 1999-2006 RHNA period,
and is used only for demonstration purposes. It is possible that the total regional need will be
signiflcantly higher for the 2007-2014 RHNA period.
Moderate Transit Emphasis
These scenarios focus on housing and jobs as the major determinants of future housing need.
Projected household growth represents the need to provide housing for natural population
increases. In addition, the presence of jobs in a community also generates demand for housing to
accommodate workers. Over time, linking jobs to housing will result in a better jobs-housing
balance throughout the region.
During the discussion of the flrst set of allocation scenarios at the October 12th HMC meeting,
several committee members requested that we look at ways to better address jobs-housing balance
more directly. Suggestions included looking at employed residents as a factor or making an
adjustment for jobs-housing ratios. Staff explored using these types of factors, but found that the
resulting allocation scenarios did not yield satisfactory outcomes, i.e. the result was numerous
negative allocations. Therefore, the jobs-housing balance issue was addressed by placing more
emphasis on existing employment centers and by only using housing growth in some of the
scenarios presented below.
Scenario 1: Total Housing & Emplqyment
This scenario equally weights a jurisdiction's total households and total jobs in 2014. Using the totals
for 2014 accounts for existing housing and employment, as well as the increment of growth
expected between 2007 and 2014. This scenario results in more housing going to jurisdictions with
existing high concentrations of both housing and jobs. Because jobs and housing are equally
2 In 2002, ABAG's Executive Board resolved to use the regional goals and Network of Neighborhoods vision as the basis for
Projections forecasts. Since then, Projections assumes that, over time, local land use policies will move the region closer to
meeting the regional goals. The policy-based Projections specifically forecast more growth in existing communities and near
transit, while directing growth away from agricultural areas and open space.
3 The rail service providers included are: Altamont Commuter Express (ACE), Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART), Caltrain, San
Francisco MUNI light rail, and Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VT A) light rail.
;;/ 5 -Cf

weighted, this scenario does the least to improve existing jobs/housing imbalances in the region, as
it maintains existing proportions of jobs and housing in each jurisdiction.
Scenario 2: Housing & Emplqyment Growth
This scenario is equally weighted between a jurisdiction's expected growth in both households and
jobs between 2007 and 2014. This scenario does not consider existing concentrations of either jobs
or housing and so housing is not directed to areas where there are either large amounts housing or
jobs in the region.
While this avoids putting additional housing where there is already lots of housing, it also
emphasizes employment growth, where additional housing may be needed.
This scenario addresses jobs-housing balance based solely on future employment growth. It does
not seek to adjust the existing balance between housing and jobs.
Scenario 3: Emplqyment Emphasis
Scenario 3 has a strong employment emphasis. Household growth is equally weighted with total jobs
(2014). However, this scenario does not consider the existing concentrations of housing, only
planned household growth. In this way, housing is not directed to those areas that have already built
a significant amount of housing. This scenario also uses 2014 jobs. The effect of this is to place
more housing in jurisdictions with both large existing employment bases and in those that are
anticipated to experience employment growth.
This scenario has the greatest potential for consistency between local and regional policy, for it
considers both locally and regionally planned growth, and has a strong employment component.
This scenario only directs housing to those jurisdictions that are planning for growth (according to a
meld of regional and local policy via Projections.) It also directs housing to both existing and growing
employment centers.
Greater Transit Emphasis
These scenarios include factors related to housing and employment, but add a factor to direct
growth to areas with access to public transit. Choosing to include a factor in the methodology that
directs growth to areas with public transit would reinforce the importance of encouraging growth in
areas with a variety of transportation options. In effect, it would give extra weight to this regional
goal, over what has already been done in the Prrjections forecast. It is expected that the most
significant impacts from the use of the regional goals in Prrjections will not begin to take effect until
2010. Directing growth to areas with public transit in the methodology would ensure that this
regional goal influences development patterns during the RHNA period.
Housing Emphasis
Scenario 4 &5: Heaf!)' Housing Emphasis
These scenario have a strong housing emphasis, as 80 percent of projected housing need is based on
either existing households or projected growth - 60 percent overall housing or housing growth and
20 percent near transit. Scenario 4 is the more heavily weighted toward housing than Scenario 5, as it
;) 5 -10
RHNA Allocation Methodology Scenarios - Round 2
10/17/06
Page 4
uses total (2014) housing. Scenario 5 uses household growth, which only assigns units based on
planned household growth, eliminating impact of existing housing stock.
Jobs are accounted for only 20 percent in each scenario. Existing job centers are considered in
scenario 4, while only those areas expected to experience job growth are considered in scenario 5.
Overall, these scenarios are heavily weighted toward housing as the primary determinant of housing
need, with the added factor transit, either existing or planned homes near transit.
Scenarios 6 & 7: Moderate Housing Emphasis
Scenarios 6 and 7 both consider either total or planned employment near transit, however housing is
still presented as the primary determinant of housing need. Scenario 6 considers existing and
planned (2014) households and jobs, with additional weight given to existing and planned jobs in
transit areas. This scenario offers consideration of existing concentration of housing and
employment in all communities. Greater weight is given to communities that have existing and
planned employment growth near transit. However, this scenario may not effectively address
existing regional jobs/housing balance, for those areas with high concentrations of housing;
especially those jurisdictions with transit are given a relatively higher share of the regional housing
need (60 percent vs. 40 percent) than those with high employment concentrations.
Scenario 7 only considers housing and job growth, not existing concentrations of either. Only those
areas with anticipated housing and job growth are considered, with greater weight given to
communities with employment growth planned near transit. This scenario avoids placing housing in
those communities with high housing concentrations; however, it also does not effectively address
existing employment concentrations and therefore may not effectively address existing regional
jobs/housing balance.
Employment Emphasis
Scenarios 8: Heary Emplf!Yment with Heary Transit Emphasis
Scenarios 8 & 9 have the greatest emphasis on employment, while also considering transit. Theses
scenarios assign units based 40 percent household growth, with no consideration of existing
concentrations of housing. Therefore, these scenarios do not consider those areas in the region that
are currently housing rich.
Both scenarios use total jobs as the highest determinant of regional need. In terms of transit,
Scenario 8 uses 10 percent and Scenario 9 uses a 20 percent weight on those areas with planned
employment growth near transit. Both of these scenarios may adequately address jobs-housing
balance, as housing is directed to both existing employment centers and to areas with relatively high
planned jobs.
Transit Combo
Scenario 10: Combo - Heary Transit with Housing Emphasis
This scenario gives transit the highest emphasis of all the scenarios by giving 40 percent allocation to
those jurisdictions with either planned housing or employment growth near transit. It also is the one
example that is inclusive of all transit areas, i.e. those with both employment and housing. Those
jurisdictions without transit would only be given an allocation based on overall household growth.

Because this scenario uses household growth factor that is applicable to all jurisdictions (those with
and without transit), housing is the primary determinant of housing need.
Summary
The scenarios described above demonstrate the degree to which the regional housing needs
methodology can be used to support regional housing policy. How housing, employment and transit
are considered in the methodology can significantly alter the policy implications of the methodology.
. Current regional policy places incrementally more growth along major transportation
corridors and at transit stations. Therefore, a housing need allocation that uses regional
housing and employment as factors (Scenarios 1-3) ~ould be inclusive of "transit" as a
policy issue. Using transit as an additional direct factor (Scenarios 4-10) would give transit a
greater degree of policy consideration. Those jurisdictions with transit, under scenarios 4-10
would receive a relatively higher proportion of the allocation than those jurisdictions without
transit.
. Considering total existing and planned housing (2014) in the methodology gives those
jurisdictions with existing relatively high concentrations of housing in the region - the most
housing dense urban communities a relatively higher proportion of the housing allocation.
. Considering only housing growth gives those jurisdictions that are planning for housing
growth (according to both regional and local policy) a relatively greater portion of the
housing need.
. Considering existing and planned employment (2014) gives those jurisdictions with both
high existing concentrations of jobs and planned job growth a greater share of the housing
need. This may have the greatest impact in directing housing to job centers and may be most
effective in addressing regional jobs-housing imbalance.
