In California, this concern is addressed by the California Government Code requirement that each City adopt a Housing Element as a mandatory part of its General Plan. Of the mandated General Plan Elements,the Housing Element is the only one that is required to be updated on a specific schedule. The Housing Element is also subject to review by the State Department of Housing and Community Development(HCD). In order to address a community's changing housing needs,Housing Elements are to be updated every four to eight years. State Planning Law mandates that jurisdictions within the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) region adopt revisions to their Housing Elements by October 15, 2021. There are two relevant Housing Element time periods: • 2013-2021: The previous planning period began on October 15,2013,and ends on October 15, 2021 • 2021 -2029: The current Housing Element planning period begins on October 15, 2021 and ends in October 15,2029. The planning period for the 6Lh Cycle Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) as prepared by SCAG,is from June 30,2021 to October 15,2029,an eight-year period. The Housing Element includes the following sections: Section I-Introduction Section II-Summary of Issues,Needs, Constraints and Opportunities Section III-Goals and Policies Section IV-Housing Programs Appendix A-Review of Past Performance Appendix B-Housing Sites Inventory Assessment Appendix C-Affordable Housing Resources Appendix D-Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Appendix E-Public Participation (Community Engagement Plan) Appendix F-References PURPOSE OF THE HOUSING ELEMENT The purpose of the Housing Element is to achieve an adequate supply of safe, affordable housing for all economic segments of the community, including individuals with special housing needs. An effective housing element provides the necessary conditions for conserving, preserving and producing an adequate supply CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 I-1 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 of housing affordable at a variety of income levels and provides a vehicle for establishing and updating housing and land-use strategies to reflect changing needs, resources, and conditions. The Land Use Element of the City's General Plan is concerned with housing in a spatial context while the Housing Element identifies housing programs aimed at meeting the identified housing needs of the City's population. The Tustin Housing Element includes the identification of goals, policies, and programs that focus on: 1) housing affordability, 2) rehabilitating substandard housing, 3) meeting the existing demand for new housing, and 4) conserving the existing affordable housing stock. Section II and Appendix D for additional information on the City's demographic profile. SCOPE AND CONTENT OF ELEMENT The State Legislature recognizes the role of the local general plan, and particularly the Housing Element, in implementing statewide housing goals. Furthermore, the Legislature emphasizes the promotion of and affirmatively furthering fair housing opportunities throughout the State, regional and local levels of government and for all economic segments of a community. The Legislature's major concerns with regard to the preparation of Housing Elements are: o Recognition by local governments of their responsibility to consider economic, environmental and fiscal factors and community goals set forth in the General Plan in contributing to the attainment of State housing goals; o Recognition of responsibility by the State and local governments to utilize vested powers to facilitate, improve and ensure the provision adequate housing for all economic segments within a community; o Cooperative efforts by all levels of government to provide housing to low- and moderate-income households; o Cooperative participation of government and the private sector in an effort to expand housing opportunities and accommodate housing needs; and o Designating and maintaining a supply of land and adequate suitable sites suitable,feasible and available for housing development. The State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) set forth specific requirements regarding the scope and content of housing elements. CONSISTENCY WITH STATE PLANNING LAW The preparation of the City's Housing Element is guided by and must conform to Section 65580 et seq. of the California Government Code. In the introduction of these Government Code sections, the Legislature establishes a policy that the availability CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 I-2 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 of housing in a suitable environment is of vital statewide importance, and a priority of the highest order. It further states that local governments are to address the housing needs of all economic segments, while considering the economic, environmental and fiscal factors and community goals set forth in the General Plan. This Housing Element complies with statutory requirements of Government Code Sections 65580- 65588. GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY According to State planning law, the Housing Element must be internally consistent with the other General Plan elements. Certain goals and policies of each element may also address issues that are primary subjects of other elements. This integration of issues throughout the General Plan creates a strong base for the execution of plans and programs and ultimate attainment of community goals. The Housing Element is most closely tied to the Land Use Element as residential development capacities established in the Land Use Element are incorporated into the Housing Element. The Tustin General Plan includes the following elements: • Land Use • Housing • Circulation • Conservation/Open Space/Recreation • Public Safety • Noise • Growth Management The Land Use Element directly relates to the Housing Element by designating areas of the City in which a variety of residential types and densities exist. The Housing Element's relationship to the Conservation,Open Space,and Recreation Element is conditioned by the need to serve a growing population's recreational needs in the areas of the City with the highest density. Also, housing needs for low cost land must be balanced by the need to conserve natural resources. The Circulation Element attempts to provide an efficient and well-balanced circulation system.This system must be designed to accommodate allowed land uses, including residential uses, and the intensity of allowable uses should not exceed the ultimate capacity to accommodate them. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 I-3 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 The Public Safety Element relates to the Housing Element by designating areas that are unsafe for development such as high fire severity zones, Alquist-Priolo Zones, floodplains, etcetera. Similar to the Public Safety Element, the Noise Element relates to the Housing Element by addressing a health-related issue area. Techniques for reducing noise often involve buffers between land uses. The Growth Management Element overlaps the issues raised in the Housing Element in its efforts to ensure that the planning,management, and implementation of traffic improvements and public facilities are adequate to meet the current and projected needs of Orange County. The Tustin Housing Element is consistent with the goals and policies set forth in the adopted General Plan, but also incorporates new development opportunities presented by the Red Hill Avenue Specific Plan and the Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan. Pursuant to new State law, the City is updating the Public Safety Element, Land Use Element and Circulation Element following the Housing Element update as part of an overall Citywide General Plan update. This update is anticipated to be completed by January 2024. If additional elements in the General Plan are amended in the future, the Housing Element will be reviewed and modified if necessary to ensure consistency among the various elements. The City will ensure that updates to these Elements achieve consistency with the Housing Element. PUBLIC PARTICIPATION The California Government Code section 65583, subdivision (c)(8) requires that local governments make diligent efforts to solicit public participation from all segments of the community in the development of the Housing Element. The City's comprehensive public participation plan in included in Appendix E - Community Engagement Plan. Public Engagement The City of Tustin recognizes the importance of public participation and consultation during the preparation of the 2021 - 2029 Housing Element Update, and, therefore, developed a comprehensive Community Engagement Plan (Appendix E) to solicit input from residents, community members and stakeholders throughout the update process. The following provides a summary of the City's Community Engagement Plan outreach efforts: CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 I-4 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 • Public Meetings - Multiple public workshops and public hearings held providing opportunities for community and public participation and input, including with residents, stakeholders, Planning Commission and City Council, and options for virtual community participation. • Online Community Survey-Two separate releases of an online community survey in English and Spanish to gather feedback related to local housing needs; • Mailings - Direct mailing and email notifications delivered to Tustin residents, businesses, apartment owners, service providers, and other agencies in English and Spanish; • Stakeholders - Individual stakeholder meetings held with multiple organizations as part of the consultation process; • Website - Creation of a focused webpage on the City's website dedicated to the Housing Element Update which was routinely maintained and updated with pertinent information; • Social Media and Multi-Media News Releases - Specific information, provisions and updates advertised in English and Spanish through the City's website, social media posts, paid advertising via social media and in newspaper and magazine publications, press releases, video features, flyers, postcards, and posters;and • On-going public input- Continuous opportunities for review and comment of the Draft Housing Element update using all the community outreach methods and media listed above. Details of the City's outreach efforts are described in the Community Engagement Plan(Appendix E). Summary of Public Comments Received The City received twenty-three (23) public comments during the comment period. The majority of comments were received between June 30, 2021 and July 30, 2021 and a summary of all of the comments are provided below. The public comment period has been continuously open since June 30, 2021. More than half of the comments received during the beginning of the comment period expressed concern over the number of units planned, particularly the low-income distribution, being concentrated in one major area (Tustin Legacy) rather than distributed throughout the City. In response to these comments, the draft Housing Element, released in June 2021, was subsequently revised on August 17 and September 7, 2021 by the City Council during public meetings. Specifically, the revisions added and redistributed units to The Tustin Market Place and the Enderle Center sites with no increase in the number of units at Tustin Legacy area. These revisions also included adjustments to the distribution of units at various income levels (based on RHNA percentages) evenly and proportionately throughout the sites. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 I-5 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 • Concern over the apportionment, density and geographic placement of additional low-income housing primarily identified to occur within the Tustin Legacy area. Respondents encouraged the City to consider the overall housing increase, and, particularly the lower-income housing to be more equally apportioned/distributed throughout the City and be available to all rather than concentrated within the Tustin Legacy area. • Affordable housing should be dispersed equitably throughout the community. • Resident within current Tustin Legacy neighborhood expressed displeasure of current high taxes in addition to the Tustin Legacy identified to being the recipient of the majority of homeless and low-income housing allocations. • Concern that they did not physically receive or receive communication about the available survey. • Concern that the City is not providing enough site capacity for very low- income housing. RHNA requires 1,724 very low-income units and the Draft Element provides a capacity for 1,699; a deficiency. Their suggestion is to provide a fifteen (15) to thirty (30) percent capacity buffer at each level of income to avoid violating the No New Loss requirement. • Concern regarding specific Site 6 being held by one (1) owner and unknown willingness by said owner to sell property to pursue housing which would result in a site inventory deficiency. • Concern that the plan will not realize attainable housing options for residents and workers of Tustin. • Encourage the City to adopt a compliant housing element update by the required due date of October 15,2021. • Inquiry regarding whether the City plans to build condominiums and small houses for young adults just starting their careers and want to live in the City of Tustin. • Request for information regarding rental assistance programs. • Request update regarding housing developments in Tustin. • Request for the Housing Element Technical Memorandum. • Concerns regarding the identification of zone or zones where emergency shelters are allowed without discretionary review and/or permit, assessing the need and capacity for emergency shelters, emergency shelter standards; analysis for special needs; analysis of governmental and nongovernmental constraints;site inventory analysis and capacity,including ADUs;assessment of fair housing issues related to AFFH; programs within the Draft Housing Element including preserving assisted housing developments, and public CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 I-6 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 engagement and outreach efforts undertaken by the during the update process. • Request for the City to consider utilizing skilled and trained workforce policies. At the September 14, 2021 Planning Commission public hearing, the Commission received additional public comments from the Kennedy Commission and Tustin Planning Partnership. The concerns generally expressed include the following: • Concern that site analysis is deficient relative to physical viability and allocation of lower income sites at Tustin Market Place and Enderle Center. • Concern that proposed update is creating inconsistencies that are contrary to the City's land use and Zoning Code and affordable housing policies. • Concern regarding public participation and outreach to underserved, minority and special needs population, site inventory analysis, bed counts of emergency and transitional housing projects within the City, ADU calculation and analysis, impact of local ordinances on the cost of housing and lack of analysis regarding special needs populations and resources available. These comments were similar to those comments received by the City from HCD and Public Law Center which the City has addressed in the revised Draft Housing Element. At the conclusion of the September 14, 2021 meeting, the Planning Commission unanimously voted 5-0, adopting Resolutions No. 4439 and 4440 with the recommendations that the City Council approve the Housing Element Update and the accompanying Negative Declaration. The Notice of Intent to Adopt a Negative Declaration (ND) and the Initial Study (IS) were advertised for public review from August 24, 2021 to September 23, 2021. The City provided notification of the availability of the IS and ND to those included on the City's Interested Party List which includes various organizations (i.e. youth, seniors, veterans and disabled), homeless shelters, housing advocates, religious & cultural organizations,fair housing council, service providers,housing builders and developers, homeowners' associations, CDBG funding recipients, multi-family apartment managers (TEAMs),and online survey respondents. As of September 23, 2021, two (2) public comments were received on the proposed Negative Declaration. The comment questioned whether the adequacy of the environmental analysis conducted based on the City's RHNA allocation and the number of units that could be potentially constructed within the City. A response was provided to this question along with other questions to the City's website for CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 I-7 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 information and assist the public in the Housing Element update process. In response to this comment and other related-comments,it is important to note that the Housing Element is a planning and policy document that does not approve, permit or entitle any residential development projects. A second comment letter was received by the City of Irvine but cited no major concerns. The sites inventory and housing unit distribution has been modified several times since it was originally presented at the City Council and Planning Commission Housing Element Workshop held on May 11, 2021. In order for those properties identified in the Sites Inventory to accommodate additional housing units to the meet the City RHNA allocation, it will require the creation of overlay zones and/or an amendment to Specific Plan and are therefore only considered candidate sites. Additional evaluation and a separate environmental assessment will be completed concurrently with the adoption of an overlay/rezone and/or amendment to the City's General Plan, and is required to take place with three years of the City's adoption of the 2021-2029 Housing Element. On September 30, 2021, the ALUC will consider the draft Housing Element and determined if the Housing Element is consistent with Airport Environs Land Use Plans (AELUPs) for the John Wayne Airport and Heliports. The current draft Housing Element has carried over two (2) key policies from the previous element: 1. Buildings and structures shall not penetrate Federal Aviation Regulation (FAR) Part 77 Imaginary Obstruction Surfaces for John Wayne Airport unless found consistent by the Airport Land Use Commission(ALUC).Additionally, in accordance with FAR Part 77, applicants proposing buildings or structures that penetrate the 100: 1 Notification Surface shall file a Form 7460 -1 Notice of Proposed Construction or Alteration with FAA. A copy of the FAA application shall be submitted to ALUC and, the applicant shall provide the City with FAA and ALUC responses. 2. Development projects that include structures higher than 200 feet above existing grade shall be submitted to ALUC for review. In addition, projects that exceed a height of 200 feet above existing grade shall file Form 7460 -1 with the Federal Aviation Administration FAA). October 5, 2021, the Tustin City Council will consider the adoption of the two Resolutions (No. 21-86 and 21-87), approving the 6Lh cycle of the City of Tustin Housing Element Update, and authorizing staff to submit the adopted Housing Element to HCD for certification. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 I-8 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 SUMMARY OF ISSUES, NEEDS CONSTRAINTS AND OPPORTUNITIES This section of the Housing Element summarizes Tustin s current and projected housing needs to form the basis for establishing program priorities and quantified objectives in the Housing Element. This section also: • Estimates the number of households that meet Federal or State criteria for special considerations when discussing specialized needs; • Evaluates assisted units at risk of conversion; • Describes constraints that may discourage the construction of new housing; and • Examines housing opportunity sites. SUMMARY OF HOUSING NEEDS A number of factors will influence the degree of demand or "need" for housing in Tustin. The major"needs" categories considered in this Element include: • Housing needs resulting from increased population and employment growth in the City and the surrounding region; • Housing needs resulting from household overcrowding; • Housing needs resulting from the deterioration or demolition of existing units; • Housing needs that result from when households are paying more than they can afford for housing; • Housing needs resulting from the presence of"special needs groups" such as the seniors, large families, female-headed households, persons with disabilities (including physical and mental disability), and persons experiencing homelessness;and • Housing needs resulting from the conversion of assisted housing developments to market rate housing. Population Growth As shown in Table H-II-1,between 2010 and 2014 the City's population grew steadily from 75,540 to 80,617, an increase of 5.6 percent. Between 2014 and 2018, Tustin s population growth decreased by approximately 1.0 percent, with a decrease from 80,617 to 79,787. The population growth in Tustin is comparable to the countywide growth rate. However, Tustin s 5.6 percent population growth rate within the 2010- CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-1 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 2018, eight-year period is greater than the nearby cities of Anaheim, Garden Grove, Orange and Santa Ana.These other cities experienced growth rates in the range of 1.0 percent to 4.7 percent,compared to Tustin s 5.6 percent population increase.The City of Irvine experienced the largest population increase,with an increase of 33.1 percent within the same eight-year period.

CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-2 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 Employment An assessment of the needs of the community must take into consideration the type of employment held by City residents.Incomes associated with different jobs and the number of workers in a household determines the type and size of housing a household can afford. The American Community Survey (ACS) provides information about employment, specifically the number of City residents by industry type, who are employed by businesses either outside or within their community. As of 2018, the largest occupational category in the City was the service occupation in which a total of 17,418 residents (41.10 percent) were employed. The second largest category was the sales and office occupations, employing 9,585 residents (22.60 percent). Both of these categories and respective percentages are very similar to the previous housing cycle and have not changed significantly. Table H-II-4 shows the breakdown of employment by occupation. Table H-II-3 provides employment projections between the years 2016 and 2040. According to OCP-2018 Modified data,employment in the City of Tustin is expected to increase by approximately 42 percent between 2016 and 2040. The largest percentage of employment by occupation includes service occupations(41.1 percent). However, given the changes in retail shopping trends and more customers making purchases online, there is and will likely continue to be less demand for retail space in the future,which could potentially impact retail employment as well.

The jobs- to-housing balance is a planning tool to review whether a community has a healthy balance between jobs and the housing supply available to potentially house workers for those jobs. This balance may be impacted by the match between wage levels and housing costs;whether all workers in a house have employment in the community in which they live; whether preferences are met within the community for either housing or employment;and whether options are available nearby for either housing or employment. A desired target is a jobs-to-housing-units ration of 1:1, indicating a jurisdiction has reached an equilibrium between employment and housing opportunities. Table H-II-6 shows the 2018 jobs-housing balance for Tustin,Orange County and the Southern California (SCAG) region. Recent data indicate that Tustin had a jobs- housing ratio of 1.78 in 2018,indicating that the City is jobs-rich in comparison to the countywide ratio of 1.57 and the SCAG region ratio of 1.28.

An overcrowding can be caused by lack of affordable housing (which forces more than one household to live together) and/or a lack of available, adequately sized housing units. Overcrowding is an indicator of inadequate supply of affordable housing, especially for large families. Overcrowded and severely overcrowded households contribute to faster rates of deterioration due to more intensive use of individual housing units. The faster rates of deterioration are caused by excessive wear and tear, and the potential cumulative effect of overburdening infrastructure systems and exceeding service capacities. Furthermore,overcrowding in neighborhoods contributes to overall declines in social cohesion and environmental quality. Such decline can often spread geographically CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-5 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 from housing units to neighborhoods and impact the overall quality of life and the economic vitality of a community." According to the 2019 American Community Survey,447 owner-occupied and 2,769 renter-occupied households in Tustin had more than 1.0 occupant per room.This data shows that overcrowding disproportionately affects renters, with 25 percent of renter-occupied units overcrowded compared to three percent of owner-occupied units. Substandard Units -Type,Age and Condition of Housing Stock Age is one measure of housing stock conditions and a factor for determining the need for rehabilitation. Without proper maintenance,housing units deteriorate over time. Thus, units that are older are more likely to be in need of major repairs (e.g., a new roof or plumbing). As a general rule of thumb, houses 30 years old or older are considered aged and are more likely to require major repairs. According to the ACS of 2019, Tustin offers a mix of housing choices. Of the 25,315 housing units in the City, 54.5 percent (13,815) are comprised of one-unit (either attached or detached) structures, 20 percent (5,093) are comprised of 2-9 units structures, approximately 24 percent (6,041) are comprised of 10 or more units structures,and 2 percent (524) are mobile homes. As of 2020, approximately 64 percent (17,816) of the City's existing housing stock is over 30 years old,the age at which housing tends to require significant repairs. The ACS of 2019 quantifies"Selected Conditions'which is a measure of substandard housing. The selected conditions are: incomplete plumbing or kitchens, overcrowding and 30 percent of the household income spent on rent or monthly owner costs. Of the 12,453 owner-occupied housing units, only 245 (less than two percent) housing units were indicated to have two or more"selected conditions". Of the 12,862 renter occupied housing units,1,901 (14.77 percent)were indicated to have two or more "selected conditions". At this time the City's Building Division (Code Enforcement) estimates that approximately ten percent of the City's housing stock is in need of varying degrees of repairs,which is generally consistent with the"selected conditions" data. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-6 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 Single Room Occupancy (SRO): Single Room Occupancy ("SRO") units are one-room units intended for occupancy by a single individual and typically range in size from 250-500 square feet. SROs are typically more affordable than other housing and can be a source of housing for low- and moderate-income households. They are distinct from a studio or efficiency unit, in that a studio is a one-room units that must contain a kitchen and a bathroom. Although SRO units are not required to have a kitchen or a bathroom, many SROs have one or the other and could be equivalent to an efficiency unit. SRO units are allowed within the City's Multiple Family Residential districts and Planning Area 3 of the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan area. SRO units such as rest homes are also conditionally-permitted within Commercial Districts in the city. The City will review the Zoning Code and Tustin Legacy Specific Plan to determine if other zones or planning areas are appropriate for inclusion of SROs. Affordability Gap Analysis The purpose of the affordability gap analysis is to illustrate the"gap"between the cost of what households pay toward their housing expenses in relation to their incomes. State and federal guidelines indicate that a household paying more than 30 percent of its income for housing is overpaying.Those who pay an excessing amount of their income on housing are referred to as "cost-burdened." Overpayment for housing can create an imbalance in a household's overall budget. Evaluating incidents of overpayment can influence the supply and demand of housing. Federal and State agencies use cost burden indicators to determine the extent and level of funding and support that should be allocated towards a community. The cost burden is the ratio of housing costs to household income.For renters,housing cost is gross rent(contract rent plus utilities). For owners, housing cost is "select monthly owner costs," including mortgage payment, utilities, association fees, insurance, and real estate taxes.

Special Needs Groups State law identifies certain households that historically have more difficulty in finding adequate and affordable housing due to special needs. Special needs populations include seniors, persons with disabilities, female-headed households, large households,and farmworkers.Many persons within these special needs groups often have lower than average incomes because of their special needs. Special needs may be related to a person's employment and income, family characteristics, disability and household characteristics, or other factors. Consequently, certain residents in Tustin may experience higher incidences of housing overpayment (cost burden),overcrowding,or other housing problems.Special needs groups required to be analyzed in the Housing Element include seniors, persons with physical and developmental disabilities, persons experiencing homelessness, single parents, large households,and farmworkers Demographics regarding special needs groups are presented in Appendix D. Appendix D discussion incorporates planning and analysis, which is collectively referred to as an assessment of fair housing (AFH), and generally includes: • A summary of fair housing issues in the City of Tustin and an assessment of the jurisdiction's fair housing enforcement and outreach capacity;and • An analysis and summary of fair housing issues and identification of trends and patterns within the City of Tustin in comparison to surrounding cities and the larger Orange County region,including the topics of: o Integration and segregation; o Racially or ethnically concentrated areas of poverty; o Disparities in access to opportunity, including for persons with disabilities; and CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-9 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 o Disproportionate housing needs (such as overpayment, overcrowding, housing conditions disproportionately affecting protected classes),and displacement risk. where the City's. Discussion below includes a brief overview of these topics. Seniors (65+) The needs of many senior households are a result of their low and fixed incomes, physical disabilities/limitations, and need for assistance. The four main concerns for the 65+age population are: • Housing: considering that many seniors live alone, they may have difficulty maintaining their home • Income: this population is typically retired and live on a limited income • Healthcare: due to health conditions, they are likely to spend high amounts on health care • Transportation:a decline in strength,vision,reaction times,and short- term memory may make it unsafe for a senior to drive thus may rely on public transportation Table H-II-10 shows the tenure of households with the head of household aged 65 years or older in the City in 2018. The City had 1,596 renter households and 2,913 owner households with a head of household aged 65 years or older.Households with a senior householder represented 17.3 percent of all households in the City.

According to the 2013-2018 ACS, 6.89 percent or 5,525 persons in Tustin between 18 and 65 years of age reported a disability in 2018. While 6.12 percent or 4,905 total persons over age 65 reported a disability in 2018. Special housing needs of disabled individuals include wheelchair accessibility, railings,and special construction for interior living spaces.The Housing Element sets forth policies to encourage the development of disabled-accessible housing (see policies 1.1 and 2.5). The City's process and policies to provide reasonable accommodation to populations with disability are discussed within Housing Constraints,below. Additional information is also provided in Appendix D. Large Households The U.S. Census Bureau considers a household containing five or more persons is a large family. According to the County AI, the city contains 3,775 large family households. Large families are identified as groups with special housing needs because of the limited availability of adequately sized, affordable housing units. Large families are often lower-income, frequently resulting in the overcrowding of smaller dwelling units and accelerating unit deterioration. Data shows that the large families experience greater proportions of housing problems than other family types in the city (see Appendix D).Special needs of large family households in the city and policies to address identified needs are further discussed in Appendix D. Female-Headed Households Female-headed households require special consideration and assistance because of their greater need for daycare, health care, and other supportive services. Female- headed households with children, in particular, tend to have lower-incomes, thus limiting housing availability to this group. According to 2014-2019 ACS, there are 3,684 female householders and 1,799 female householders with children in the city. As identified in Appendix D, one census tract, 755.14, contained a substantial population of female-headed households. Additionally, 75 to 100 percent of households in this census tract were also identified as low to moderate income. Special needs of female-parent households in the city and policies to address identified needs are further discussed in Appendix D.

Farm workers have special housing needs because they earn lower incomes than many other workers and move throughout the season from one harvest to the next. Statewide, farmworker housing is of unique concern and of unique importance. While only a small share of SCAG region jurisdictions have farmworkers living in them, they are essential to the region's economy and food supply. According to the 2014-2018 ACS, 415 residents of Tustin's residents were employed in agriculture,forestry,or fishing,and hunting occupations,with 258 being employed full-time, year-round. Tustin is an urbanized community with no undeveloped parcels zoned for agriculture as a principal use; however, some residential zones allow a range of agriculture and related uses. However, some farmworkers may commute to nearby farming operations outside of the city.

Persons Experiencing Homelessness Measuring the extent of the homeless population, specifically in Tustin, remains a challenge for community leaders. To complicate the challenge of meeting homeless persons' needs, the issue of homelessness is considered regional in nature. Nomadic tendencies of homeless persons make it challenging to assess the population accurately on a citywide basis; therefore, homelessness should be addressed on a countywide basis,in conjunction with cities and local non-profit organizations. State law (Section 65583 (1) (6)) mandates that municipalities address the special needs of homeless individuals within their jurisdictional boundaries. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development(HUD) defines homelessness as: (1) Individuals and families who lack a fixed, regular, and adequate nighttime residence and includes a subset for an individual who is exiting an institution where he or she resided for 90 days or less and who resided in an emergency shelter or a place not meant for human habitation immediately before entering that institution; CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-14 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 (2) Individuals and families who will imminently lose their primary nighttime residence; (3) Unaccompanied youth and families with children and youth who are defined as homeless under other federal statutes who do not otherwise qualify as homeless under this definition;or (4) Individuals and families who are fleeing, or are attempting to flee, domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, stalking, or other dangerous or life- threatening conditions that relate to violence against the individual or a family member. a) In accordance with HUD's Continuum of Care (CoC) Program, Orange County's 2019 Sheltered Point In Time Count,Everyone Counts,is a biennial unsheltered count and an annual sheltered count of all individuals experiencing homelessness in the community on a single point in time, took place the night of Tuesday, January 22, 2019. The count revealed that 6,860 individuals in the County were experiencing homelessness. Although some individuals may identify with more than one subpopulation of the individuals counted, 52.02 percent were chronically homeless, 33.73 percent had substance use issues, 31.17 percent had a physical disability, 26.82 percent had mental health issues, 14.03 percent has a developmental disability,9.50 percent experienced domestic violence,and 1.80 percent were HIV/AIDS positive. The City of Tustin had 359 individuals total, 95 unsheltered and 264 sheltered. There are numerous factors that contribute to homelessness in Tustin and Orange County. The known causes of homelessness include unemployment, limited skills, and a breakdown in the family as a social and economic unit. Additionally,cutbacks in social service programs and the de-institutionalization of the mentally ill have contributed to the homeless population. A new trend, however, is emerging as a significant contributing element to homelessness: a fast-growing lack of affordable housing, which could exacerbate any of the above conditions, but may increasingly become a standalone cause of homelessness. Homelessness is further discussed in Appendix D.

This section presents an inventory of all assisted rental housing in Tustin, and evaluates those units at risk of conversion during the ten-year, 2021-2031 planning period. At-Risk Units Inventory Tustin Gardens is a 99-unit Section 223(a) (7)/221(D) (4) project with a Section 8 contract for 100 units Tustin Gardens is extended on an annual basis. Their current contract is due to expire on July 31, 2022 and the City has recently been notified that the existing contract has been extended for a new 20-year period which would mean the contract would expire on July 31, 2041. As a result, these housing units are no longer considered at risk for this housing cycle. Westchester Park (150-units), Flanders Pointe (49-units) and Chatam Village (210-units) are other at-risk communities within Tustin that could also be converted towards the end of the planning period. Various restrictions and incentives affect the likelihood that at-risk units will convert to other uses. Depending on the circumstances, different options may be used to preserve or replace the units. Preservation options typically include: (1) transfer of units to non-profit ownership;(2)provision of rental assistance to tenants using other funding sources;and (3) purchase of affordability covenants. Transfer of Ownership Transferring ownership of an at-risk project to a non-profit housing provider is generally one of the least costly ways to ensure that the at-risk units remain affordable over an extended period of time. By transferring property ownership to a non-profit organization, low income restrictions can be secured and the project would potentially become qualified for additional governmental assistance. This may be an option for Westchester Park,Flanders Pointe and Chatam Village developments and City staff will explore this option and others as a program to maintain the at-risk units. Rent Subsidy Tenant-based rent subsidies could also be used to preserve the affordability of housing. Similar to Section 8 vouchers, the City, through a variety of potential funding sources, could provide rent subsidies to tenants of at-risk units. The level of the subsidy required to preserve the at-risk units is estimated to equal the Fair Market Rent ("FMR") for a unit minus the housing costs affordable by a lower income CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-16 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 household.

Incentives could include writing down the interest rate on the remaining loan balance, providing a lump-sum payment, and/or supplementing the rents to market levels. The feasibility and cost of this option depends on whether the units are too highly leveraged and interest on the owner's behalf to utilize the incentives found in this option. Table 23 of Appendix B is an inventory of all units assisted under federal, state, and/or local programs, including HUD programs, state and local bond programs, City programs,and local in-lieu fee, inclusionary, density bonus, or direct assistance programs. The inventory includes all units that are eligible to convert to non-lower income housing uses due to termination of subsidy contract, mortgage prepayment, or expiring use restrictions. Programs for Preservation of At-Risk Units The City will make efforts to preserve units "at risk" at, Westchester Park, Flanders Pointe and Chatam Village. The cost of acquiring and preserving each of the at-risk developments is less than replacing the units with new construction. The actual amount required to preserve each project is currently unknown. The City will also be looking at possible work with nonprofits in the community to explore acquisition of existing buildings with at risk units by nonprofit organizations. The specific actions that the City will take to protect (or replace) at-risk units are identified in the Housing Element Implementation Program. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-17 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 SUMMARY OF HOUSING ISSUES Housing is a fundamental component of land use within a community necessary to support the resident population. Obtaining affordable housing has been an ongoing issue for persons of all income groups in California. Housing trends and data, specifically regarding special needs groups, are discussed in Appendix D. Section C.2.5 identifies disproportionate housing needs of various groups within the City of Tustin. Disproportionate Housing Needs generally refers to a condition in which there are significant disparities in the proportion of members of a protected class experiencing a category of housing need when compared to the proportion of members of any other relevant groups, or the total population experiencing that category of housing need in the applicable geographic area. For purposes of this definition, categories of housing need are based on such factors as cost burden and severe cost burden, overcrowding,homelessness, and substandard housing conditions. The following conclusions were identified upon analysis of available data and documentation available regarding housing trends and characteristics within the City of Tustin: • A higher percent of non-White households experienced housing problems than White households in Tustin. • Non-White households that experienced the greatest proportion of housing problems include Hispanic (71.19 percent),Black (62.40 percent),and Native American (50.00 percent). • The same trend occurred for the county population. • A higher proportion of households are considered overcrowded in southern Tustin,which overlaps with census tracts that contain greater proportions of minority population and low-income households. • According to the Orange County's 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI), displacement of residents due to economic pressures may be a significant contributing factor to fair housing issues in Orange County and,in particular, in parts of Orange County that have historically had concentrations of low-income Hispanic and Vietnamese residents. Additional data and analysis of housing issues can be found in Appendix D. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-18 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 HOUSING CONSTRAINTS Actual or potential constraints on the provision and cost of housing affect the development of new housing and the maintenance of existing units for all income levels. Market, governmental, infrastructure, and environmental constraints to housing development in Tustin are summarized below and discussed in greater detail in the Housing Element Technical Memorandum. Market Constraints High cost of renting or buying adequate housing is a primary ongoing constraint. High construction costs, rising land costs, labor shortages, market financing constraints and neighborhood opposition make it expensive for developers to build housing. Construction Costs: Construction costs can vary depending on the type of development with multi-unit housing typically less costly to construct than single-unit homes. Such costs are also dependent on materials used and building height, as well as regulations set by the City's adopted Building Code. The International Code Council (ICC) compiles an indicator of construction costs at six(6)month intervals which is referred to as'Building Valuation Data'.The ICC was established in 1994 with the goal of developing a single set of national model construction codes, known as the International Codes, or I-Codes. These estimates provide the average cost of labor and materials for typical Type VA wood frame housing construction and are based on "good quality" construction, providing for materials and fixtures well above the minimum required state and local building codes. In February 2021,the ICC estimates that the average per square foot for good quality housing was approximately $125.18 for multi-unit housing and $138.79 for single- unit homes. A reduction in amenities and quality of building materials (above a minimum acceptability for health, safety, and adequate performance) could lower costs and associated rents and sales prices.Additionally,pre-fabricated,factory-built housing may provide for lower priced housing by reducing construction and labor costs.An additional factor related to construction costs is the number of units built at the same time. As the number of units developed increases, construction costs over the entire development are generally reduced, based on economies of scale. This reduction in costs is of particular benefit when density bonuses are utilized for the provision of affordable housing. Although it should be noted that the reduced costs are most attributed to a reduction in land costs;when that cost is spread on a per unit basis. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-19 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 According to an Orange County Register article published on March 12, 2021, California contractors are continuing to be confronted with a higher cost for materials,problems with the supply chain and project delays or cancellations due to COVID-19 - one year after the worldwide pandemic began. As a result, the overall cost of the housing unit is affected and this cost is a considerable factor during this particular planning period. Another key component of construction cost is labor. Depending on the availability of construction worker and their respective wages can also affect the overall cost of the housing. The State of California does not have sufficient numbers of construction workers to meet Governor Newson s stated housing goals. According to a study for Smart Cities Prevail,the State of California has a shortage of over 200,000 construction workers. The study concludes that California has lost about 200,000 construction workers since 2006 as a result of the economic recession and/or workers finding work in other industries. This, in turn,has impacted housing costs. Overall, although construction costs are a significant portion of the overall development costs, they are consistent throughout the region and, especially in light of land costs,are not considered a major constraint to housing production in Tustin. Land: Raw land and improvement costs comprise approximately 40-50 percent of the total development costs of a residential unit. Prices for land in Tustin have risen significantly in recent years. As referenced previously, basic construction costs including labor and materials for residential projects have increased rapidly, and together with land costs,have increased the cost of housing making homeownership unattainable for many households. These costs are fairly consistent throughout the region as the main components of labor and materials do not fluctuate much be area. Preparation of a site can be a substantial cost,but the variations and factors are more a function of the site,than of the jurisdiction. Financing: The availability of financing affects a person's ability to purchase or improve a home. Interest rates can have an impact on housing costs. Some mortgage financing is variable rate, which offers an initial lower rate than fixed financing. The ability of lending institutions to raise rates to adjust for inflation will cause existing households to overextend themselves financially,and create situations where high financing costs constrain the housing market. Even if Tustin homebuyers are able to provide a 3 percent down-payment and obtain a 3.2 percent 30-year loan(average loan rate for FHA or VA guaranteed loans for May CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-20 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 2021), monthly mortgage payments on median priced single-family detached homes in the City place such homes out of the reach of moderate and lower-income households in the City.At a 3.6 percent interest rate,monthly mortgage payments on median priced condominiums and townhouses can place such units out of reach of Tustin's low and very low-income households (see Tables H-II-16 and H-II-17).

According to the Federal Housing Authority, lenders consider a person's debt-to- income ratio,cash available for down payment,and credit history,when determining a maximum loan amount. Many financial institutions are willing to significantly decrease down payment requirements and increase loan amounts to persons with good credit rating.

Persons with poor credit ratings may be forced to accept a higher interest rate or a loan amount insufficient to purchase a house. Poor credit rating can be especially damaging to lower-income residents,who have fewer financial resources with which to qualify for a loan. The FHA is generally more flexible than conventional lenders in its qualifying guidelines and allows many residents to re-establish a good credit history. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-22 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 Governmental Constraints In addition to market factors, housing affordability is also affected by factors in the public sector. Local policies and land use regulations can impact the price and availability of housing,and the provision of affordable housing. Land Use Controls In efforts to protect the public's health,safety,and welfare,government agencies may place administrative constraints on growth through the adoption and implementation of land use plans and ordinances. The General Plan may restrict growth if only limited areas are set aside for residential land uses, and if higher residential densities are not accommodated. The zoning ordinance may impose further restrictions if development standards are too rigid, or if zoning designations do not conform to existing land uses.On the contrary,the zoning ordinance may also be utilized as a tool in encouraging and directing affordable housing, i.e. relaxed development standards, higher density, provision of incentives (waiver of fees, expedited review process, etc.) in exchange of the production of affordable housing, etc. Residential Land Use Designations Tustin's existing zoning ordinance allows for a range of residential densities from an effective density of 4.35 units per net acre in the E-4 Residential Estate District to 24.9 units per net acre in the R-3 Multiple Family Residential District. Tustin s General Plan allows a maximum of seven (7) units per acre with effective density of 5.61 dwelling units per acre within the Low-Density Residential land use to a maximum of 25 units per acre with effective density of 21.53 dwelling units per acre within High Density Residential land use. Ten (10) units per net acre are also permitted in the MHP Mobile home Park District (see Table H-II-18). Residential projects, regardless of the number of units or density (even if density proposed is below anticipated level of density or development standard for that zone), can submit a preliminary review application for City Staff review and obtain City comments prior to submitting a formal application for review. This review process takes 30-days, requires a deposit and is facilitated by the Planning Division with written comments provided from the Building, Planning and Public Works Divisions or any other applicable divisions or agencies to the developer or applicant. This process facilitates a more streamlined review of a project prior to submitting for a formal review and provides certain project assurances to the developer or applicant. Other processes were presented as Programs in the Housing Element to support in streamlining development applications, including 1.11 Development and Permit Streamlining and 1.5 Zoning Code Streamlining Program.When a formal application CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-23 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 is submitted for a new construction project in the R-2 or R-3 zones formal Design Review is required and approval by the Planning Commission. Approximate application processing time can range from 3 months, for smaller projects, to 9 months, for larger projects depending on if there is a subdivision included with the application and the level of environmental review. Parking requirements could be a potential constraint for single-family and multi- family residential development. Required parking for multi-family projects is two covered spaces, in either a garage or carport, for each dwelling unit, plus one unassigned guest space for every four units. For Tustin, this is not considered overly excessive given the older age of many of the existing multiple family residential units and the fact that many units or complexes have non-conforming parking. Parking requirements for single-family residential includes two-car garage per dwelling, or three-car garage per dwelling with five or more bedrooms. Parking is a significant area of concern within several areas of the City, especially in the higher-density residential areas. At the time of this update, the City is currently reviewing the City's permit parking requirements and overall process.A new program has been included in this Housing Element, Program 1.2a., that commits to adopting new objective design standards that facilitate high-quality residential development; while ensuring the provision of adequate parking. Additionally, Program 1.14 a. commits to promoting adaptive reuse of historic resources for affordable housing and evaluate the use of alternate parking strategies.As existing multi-family parcels are recycled to conform to current parking requirements, the parking provided is more reflective of the actual occupancy and potential demand within the unit. A decrease in the number of required residential off-street parking spaces is allowed and limited to a maximum reduction of one (1) parking space through approval of a Minor Adjustment. Minor Adjustments are reviewed administratively by the Zoning Administrator and can take approximately 1 to 3 months to process the application. Within the Multi-Family Residential District (R-3), a 35-foot height limitation and 65 percent coverage preclude the development of housing projects with building height above the 35-foot height limitation. While these height limits may place some restrictions on housing development, these limits are designed to maintain compat- ibility between land use types and intensities. When designed properly, housing developments with certain design features and/or stepped building heights can be incorporated to minimize intrusion into the privacy of existing residents. The granting of a Conditional Use Permit is a tool that can be used to provide flexibility in allowing additional building height while maintaining compatibility with the surroundings. In addition,the City's proposed Program 1.2a,will result in objective CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-24 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 design standards which will further aid in streamlining housing development application reviews. This program will ensure that the City can provide local objective design guidance to facilitate high quality residential development. The Land Use Element indicates that residential development that supports commercial uses may also be permitted in the City's Old Town commercial area and along a portion of Red Hill Avenue just north and south of the Interstate-5 freeway. To ensure compatibility of residential uses with the commercial area, the location, density,and building intensity standards for these residential units will be governed by the respective specific plans for each area. New multi-family residential development continues to be an important supporting use for the City's mixed-use commercial/retail development areas. Specific Plans In 2018, the City of Tustin has adopted two specific plans, which offer a range and mix of uses and housing types.The City anticipates that while much of the residential growth will continue to be focused within the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan as the City owns and controls this land, the two specific plan areas will also accommodate additional residential units. These plans include: CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-25 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263EDO1D05 TABLE H-II-18 SUMMARY OF RESIDENTIAL ZONING REGULATIONS CITY OF TUSTIN Minimum Density Lot Building Interior Side Corner Side Zoning Lot Area Max.

CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-28 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 • Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan (adopted July 3,2018) • Red Hill Avenue Specific Plan (adopted November 6,2018) The Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan (DCCSP) introduced mixed-use and infused the potential for 887 units into the area through a Residential Allocation Reservation (RAR) review process. To date, 140 new non-mixed-use units were constructed. While this development entailed all market rate units, the developer participated in the in-lieu fee option regarding affordable housing provisions. The Red Hill Avenue Specific Plan (RHASP) introduced mixed-use to the area and similarly identified the potential for 500 new units in conjunction with the RAR review process. No units have been constructed in this area to date;however,there is an application pending for a development project currently under consideration within this area. East Tustin Specific Plan The East Tustin Specific Plan provides for single-family detached products to be developed at a variety of densities. The Low-Density designation requires a minimum lot area of 5,000 net square feet while the Medium-Low designation requires a minimum lot area of 3,000 net square feet and densities not to exceed 5 and 10 units per net acre respectively. Tustin Legacy Specific Plan (formally MCAS Tustin) The MCAS Tustin Specific Plan designation provides opportunities for development of a variety of residential products at varied density ranging up to 25 dwelling units per acre. In addition, the Specific Plan allows for density bonuses and density averaging. For example,in Neighborhood D,the maximum density on an individual parcel may exceed 25 units per acre as long as the total dwelling units allocated to Neighborhood D is not exceeded. Consistent with the City's policy to increase homeownership to maintain a balanced community,the majority of residential units authorized within the Specific Plan are owner-occupied units. However, in response to market demand, the City processed an amendment to the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan that allowed for additional renter-occupied units, including affordable rental units. Within Neighborhood D of the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan, a 150-foot height limitation up to 180 foot if approved by the Community Development Director would be allowed which provides for layering products (i.e., stacked flats, podium style, etc.) with mixed use developments, thereby providing opportunities for the development of higher density residential products. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-29 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 Within Neighborhood G of the Specific Plan,there is a completed 225-unit affordable housing community with a 375-unit single-family neighborhood. This area is intended to include a range of housing types for single-family and multi-family residential (i.e., detached homes, carriage way units,courtyard housing,townhomes and flats. Similar to Neighborhood D, this area allows for up to six (6) stories in building height for multi-family, commercial and non-residential and up to three (3) stories in height for single-family units, thereby providing opportunities for the development of higher density residential products. Tustin Legacy has been undergoing development since the early 2000's. Ultimate buildout is expected by 2035. There are two primary factors that influence the timing of development at Tustin Legacy: 1) market demand for the uses planned; and 2) the complexity and timing of environmental clean-up efforts. Where adequate infrastructure is in place and supports new development, this Phasing Plan would enable earlier response to positive market conditions and result in more rapid buildout of the Specific Plan area. Where a proposed development project is not supported by existing infrastructure, conditions of approval shall be established to ensure that appropriate infrastructure is constructed in accordance with this Phasing Plan and mitigation adopted in the supporting environmental documentation. Appendix B includes discussion of available housing opportunity within the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan area. Limited residential uses are also permitted in areas designated Public/Institutional provided the intended occupants are associated with the primary institutional uses. Additionally, homeless facilities are permitted by right in the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan and are allowed throughout the remainder of the City either as an outright permitted or conditionally permitted use depending on the number of residents in the project. The City's Zoning Ordinance calculates parking requirements by unit type(See HTM- 32 for summary of parking requirements). Parking requirements in Tustin are generally two spaces per unit,with an additional requirement of one guest space per every four units in multi-family development. Carports for multi-family units are permitted which would reduce development costs in contrasts to the provision of garages. Furthermore,affordable and senior housing development meeting the State Density Bonus Law would be eligible to use the reduced parking standards under the State Law. The City's land use regulatory mechanisms accommodate the development of housing at a range of densities and products and do not constrain the potential for new construction at densities suitable to meet the needs of all income ranges, CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-30 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 although assistance may be required for units offered at prices affordable to lower income households. Overlay Zones and Other Districts Planned Development (PC) Zone The Planned Community District has authorized residential subdivisions with single- family lots of 3,500-5,000 net square feet, which significantly increases density potential.The Planned Community Development also provides incentives such as no height limits when certain criterion are met and for innovative designs that incorporate small lots,residential clustering,mixed density,and mixed income types which also provides flexibility in overall density. Cultural Resource District The Cultural Resource District is an overlay district that applies to those properties, structures and sites that are designated within the City. Currently there are 397 total residential structures (365 single-family and 32 multi-family), 73 commercial structures, 13 mixed use and 12 institutional structures designated as historic within the City. All of the residentially-zoned sites within this district can accommodate ADUs. Density Bonus and Workforce Housing Ordinance Government Code Section 65915 requires a jurisdiction to provide density bonus or other incentives or concessions for the production of lower income housing units or for the donation of land within the development if the developer agrees to construct a specified percentage of units for very low, low, and/or moderate-income households. Density bonus is a California state requirement and as a result, is not subject to discretionary review of local agencies or jurisdictions. Current state law requires that jurisdictions must provide density bonuses and development incentives to all developers who propose to construct affordable housing on a sliding scale, whereby the amount of density bonus and number of incentives vary according to the number of affordable housing units to be provided. AB2345 passed in September 2020, amended the Density Bonus Law to increase the maximum density bonus from 35 percent to 50 percent. For a developer to obtain the maximum density ,a project must set aside a higher percentage of total units at a certain income level.Similarly,levels of density bonus between 35 and 50 percent are granted on the sliding scale. The State's Density Bonus Law and City's Workforce Housing Ordinance (adopted in 2018)encourages development of housing for lower income households within the CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-31 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 Red Hill Avenue and Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan areas. The City's density bonus program is incompliance with current State law. Housing or Persons with Disabilities/Reasonable Accommodation The City of Tustin recognizes the importance of addressing the housing needs for persons with disabilities. The City's Zoning Code defines"family' as"an individual or two(2)or more persons living together as a single housekeeping unit in a dwelling unit." This definition accommodates unrelated persons living together in a dwelling unit;thus,the City's definition for a family would not constrain the development and rehabilitation for persons with disabilities. The City requires each development to comply with Title 24 of the California Code. All multi-family complexes are required to provide accessible parking spaces based upon the prescribed State code requirements. For development of special needs housing such as housing for the disabled, senior housing, etc.,parking requirements would be determined based upon parking demand analysis which by nature would allow for lower parking ratio in comparison to those required for multiple family residential units. In addition, an off-street parking ordinance adopted by the City allows for the reduction in parking due to an American with Disabilities Act (ADA) upgrade.The Community Development Director is authorized to allow the reduction in the number of required parking spaces when the site is brought up to ADA standards. This provision provides incentives to property owners to provide reasonable accommodation to the disabled. The City also requires new multi-family housing units and apartment conversions to condominiums to comply with State specifications pursuant to SB 520 for accommodation of the disabled. A Residential Care facility serving six (6) or fewer persons is a permitted use in all residential districts. The City's Zoning Ordinance does not contain maximum concentration requirements for a residential care facility serving six (6) or fewer persons. Facilities serving more than six (6) persons are conditionally permitted within Planned Development District (P-D),Multiple Family Residential District (R- 3),Suburban Residential District (R4),and Retail Commercial District (C-1). It is the policy of the City of Tustin to comply with the federal Fair Housing Amendments Act of 1988 and the California Fair Employment and Housing Act to provide individuals with disabilities reasonable accommodation in regulations and procedures to ensure equal access to housing and to facilitate the development of housing for individuals with disabilities.Tustin City Code Section 9278,Reasonable Accommodation, addresses this and establishes a process for individuals with disabilities to make requests for reasonable accommodation when reasonable accommodation is warranted based upon sufficient evidence. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-32 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 A completed development application form is required providing specific information as identified in TCC Section 9278d1. A filing fee in the amount required for a Minor Amendment application pursuant to the City's current adopted fee schedule is required to accompany the completed application. The property for which the reasonable accommodation is being requested must be in compliance with the codes and regulations existing at the time of application submittal. Reasonable accommodation requests are considered without a public hearing by the Community Development Director. The Director may either grant, grant with conditions,or deny a request for reasonable accommodation in accordance with the required findings set forth in TCC Section 9278f. If additional entitlement(s) are requested in addition to the request for reasonable accommodation, then, the approval body for the entire application, including the request for reasonable accommodation,is the same body that acts on both.Other provisions,as applicable, are identified in Section 9278 of the TCC. The City's Community Development Department may inspect annually or more often. A deed restriction is recorded against the property to ensure compliance with conditions of approval, potential removal of the accommodation, and use restrictions. Homeless Accommodation Recent legislation (AB 101 and AB 139) require revisions to local zoning regulations regarding the provision of Low Barrier Navigation Centers (LBNC) and emergency shelters.Specifically,AB 139 requires the assessment of shelter needs be based on the most recent Point-in-Time Count and the parking standards for shelters be based on staffing levels. Homelessness within the City is further discussed in Appendix D. Emergency Shelters,Transitional Housing, and Supportive Housing To address the regional needs of homeless individuals and families,the City of Tustin participates in the Continuum of Care(CoC)program sponsored through the County of Orange. The purpose of the Continuum of Care Homeless Assistance Programs is to fund projects that will fill gaps in locally developed Continuum of Care systems to assist homeless persons to move to self-sufficiency and permanent housing. An important element of meeting this objective is to fund projects that will meet the goal of ending chronic homelessness. The Orange County Continuum of Care system consists of six basic components: Advocacy on behalf of those who are homeless or at-risk of becoming homeless; A system of outreach, assessment, and prevention for determining the needs and conditions of an individual or family who is homeless; Emergency shelters with appropriate supportive services to help ensure that homeless individuals and families receive adequate emergency shelter and referrals; Transitional housing to CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-33 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 help homeless individuals and families who are not prepared to make the transition to permanent housing and independent living; Permanent housing, or permanent supportive housing, to help meet the long term needs of homeless individuals and families; Reducing chronic homeless in Orange County & addressing the needs of homeless families &individuals using motels to meet their housing needs. As part of the City of Tustin's participation in the CoC program, and in partnership with 2-1-1 Orange County,on January 22,2019,a Point-In-Time Homelessness count was conducted in Tustin. The count provided data which indicated that 73 percent of Tustin's homeless population lives in Transitional Housing or Emergency Shelters, while 26 percent reside in places not meant for human habitation. The data collected from the Point-In-Time Count will provide direction to the City of Tustin's overall efforts to address homelessness within the City. In March 2019, the City of Tustin opened a new low-barrier temporary homeless shelter in the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan area, with 57 emergency shelter beds for men, women, and families with children. Recently, in response to the Covid-19 pandemic,additional facilities have been installed and the capacity of this shelter has been increased to 84 beds. This facility is operated by Temporary Shelter, Inc., and will include a variety of wrap-around and other supportive services to be administered at the site. This is a legally-compliant shelter which does not have any religious component. This site is being established to ensure that unsheltered homeless individuals with ties to Tustin have the opportunity to be provided with a bed and shelter. The site also has potential to expand in the future, should the need arise. In addition to the City's participation in the County of Orange Continuum of Care, the City of Tustin will continue to provide funding to homeless service providers who provide emergency and transitional shelter resources, along with additional support services for homeless and at-risk homeless individuals. Within the City there are several Non-Profit Organizations (NPOs) that provide direct housing and related services to homeless persons. These include Village of Hope, Sheepfold, Families Forward, Olive Crest and Laurel House. Additional details regarding these providers and services is included in Appendix D. In the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan, Planning Area 3 is a designated transitional/emergency housing site currently operated by the Orange County Rescue Mission. This site includes the reuse of two existing barracks (Building Numbers 553 and 554) and accompanying parking areas for an emergency homeless shelter or transitional housing for homeless persons. Supporting social services and food services are also allowed within this Planning Area. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-34 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 Transitional Housing The City of Tustin currently supports transitional housing facilities,including Village of Hope and House of Ruth. The House of Ruth is within the City's R4 zone and Village of Hope is within the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan as permitted in the zones. The House of Ruth is a seven (7) unit multi-family residential facility and family resource center to provide transitional housing and related support to families with children who are experiencing homeless or are at-risk. The Village of Hope is a 387 transitional housing program for homeless men, women and children. Transitional Housing is allowed in zones where multi-family housing is permitted. Supportive Housing Supportive Housing- Supportive housing is defined as permanent (no limit on the length of stay),provides supportive services and is occupied by low-income persons with disabilities and certain other disabled persons. Services may include assistance designed to meet the needs of the target population in retaining housing, career counseling, mental health treatment, and life skills. Tustin s Zoning Code permits supportive housing as a residential use,provided supportive services are ancillary to the primary use. Recent changes to State law under AB 2162 and AB 2988 would expand the provision of supportive housing to be permitted by right where multi-family and mixed uses are permitted. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-35 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 Residential Care Facilities: In 1969,the Lanterman Developmental Disabilities Services Act(aka Lanterman Act) was adopted by the California state legislature which stipulates that small State- licensed residential care facilities for six or fewer persons must be treated as regular residential uses and permitted in all residential districts; the City of Tustin is compliant with the Lanterman Act. State-licensed residential care facilities for more than six persons are similar to "rest homes, extended care facilities, convalescent hospitals and sanitariums" as defined in the Tustin City Code and are conditionally permitted in the R-3 and R-4 zones.The Land Use Element and Tustin Zoning Code provide for the development of multifamily housing in the R-2, R-3 and R-4 zones. Traditional multifamily housing for persons with special needs, such as apartments for seniors and the disabled, are considered regular residential uses permitted in these zones. The City's land use policies and zoning provisions do not constrain the development of such housing. State-licensed residential care facilities for more than six persons are also conditionally permitted within the City's Tustin Legacy Specific Plan, Red Hill Avenue Specific Plan and Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan areas.Potential conditions for approval for these uses may include hours of operation, security measures, loading requirements, and management. Conditions would be similar to those for other similar uses in the same zones and would not serve to unduly constrain the development of residential care facilities for more than six persons. Occupancy standards for residential care facilities are the same as occupancy standards for all other residential uses. The City has not adopted a spacing requirement for residential care facilities. Fees and Improvements: Various fees and assessments are charged by the City and other outside agencies(e.g., school districts) to cover costs of processing permits and providing services and facilities, such as utilities, schools and infrastructure. These fees are assessed based on the concept of cost recovery for services provided. Additionally, planning fees cover the cost of City resources in reviewing and assisting in processing of proposed ministerial and discretionary planning actions. Tustin is urbanized with most of the necessary infrastructure, such as streets, sewer and water facilities in place. Nonetheless, site improvements can significantly add to the cost of producing housing. Cost-effective site planning can minimize site improvement costs. The fees associated with development are listed in Tables H-II- 19a, H-II-19b,and in Figure H-II below.- CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-36 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 Planning and Permitting fees are charged on an at-cost basis to cover staff services and administrative expenses for processing development applications. Development impact fees are required to provide essential services and infrastructure to serve new residents. Impact fees are governed by State law to demonstrate a nexus between development and potential impacts. The City permitted a condominium project of 140 units in the Red Hill Avenue Specific Plan Area. The project fees for this project were $496,780.25. Fee costs respective to overall development costs and anticipated cost of units are considered insignificant. Development fees are not considered a constraint to housing. However, fees do contribute to the total cost of development and impact the final purchase or rental price.

Resolution No.08-60 Page 12 of 57 CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-45 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 Building Codes and Enforcement: Building and safety codes regulate new construction, alteration, and reconstruction of buildings, and are intended to protect occupants from unnecessary risk of fire, structural collapse, unsanitary conditions, and injury or loss of life. While building and safety codes are adopted for the purposes of preserving public health and safety, and ensuring the construction of safe and decent housing, they have the potential to increase the cost of housing construction and/or maintenance. The City of Tustin s building codes are based on regulations necessary to protect the public health,safety, and welfare of its residents. The City has adopted into its Codes and Ordinances the 2019 California Building Code, based on the 2018 International Building Code, as published by the International Code Council,which establish construction standards for all residential buildings. The City has adopted minor amendments to the CBC, none of which are expected to pose a constraint to development. Compliance with the CBC should not significantly add to the cost of construction since the Code is mandated to be enforced statewide and costs should be relatively uniform across the State of California. Any costs associated with Building Code standards are necessary to protect the health safety and welfare of the citizens. Compliance ensures that all new or renovated buildings are structurally sound,have proper exiting and are equipped with necessary fire protection features. Local Processing and Permit Procedures: The evaluation and review process required by City procedures contributes to the cost of housing.State law establishes maximum time limits for project approvals and City policies provide for the minimum processing time necessary to comply with legal requirements and review procedures. The City of Tustin encourages the simultaneous processing of related applications for a single project and the Community Development Department serves as the coordinating agency to facilitate reviews with other in-house departments such as Police, Public Works/Engineering, and Parks and Recreation. Larger-scale discretionary residential projects within the Tustin Legacy area of the City include design review,conditional use permit(s), development/housing and/or reimbursement agreements, tentative tract map, and sometimes minor adjustments or modifications (i.e. minor deviations). For these projects, the environmental analysis has already been completed under the Final Program EIS/EIR for MCAS Tustin and supplemental addendums and other analyses that have been prepared so future projects tier off of the Final Program EIS/EIR for MCAS Tustin which helps to streamline the review. Processing time for these projects may take approximately 6- CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-46 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 10 months and depends upon the various agreements that may be required between the applicant and the City. For Tustin Legacy, developments under the former Master Developer footprint (approximately 800 acres) are also subject to the Legacy Park Design Guidelines to ensure compatibility of products proposed by vertical builders.The design guidelines present minimum design criteria for the achievement of functional, quality, and attractive development expected at the Tustin Legacy.The guidelines are intended to complement the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan district regulations and to provide staff, builders, design professionals, and other users with a concise document when dealing with Design Review process to avoid ambiguity. Together the Tustin City Code, Design Review provisions, the Legacy Park Design Guidelines, and the "one- stop" processing system provide certainty to developers seeking approval for the development of residential projects in this area. Smaller discretionary residential projects outside of the Tustin Legacy area may include design review, conditional use permit(s), tentative parcel maps and minor adjustments or modifications as well as necessary CEQA analysis. Depending on the project details,additional CEQA review time may or may not be necessary as part of the entitlement application and these projects may take approximately 3-5 months to process. The time to process either large or small-scale residential development applications depends on the completeness of the application at the time of submittal and the team that the applicant has assembled to process their project with City staff. The City has eliminated the potential increase in financing costs caused by a delay in permit processing by assigning priority to the plan review and permit issuance for low-income housing projects. If a complete application is submitted, all Design Review Committee members (if the project requires discretionary review) and plan checking departments (if the project does not require a discretionary review) simultaneously review the plans.The Design Review application does not necessarily require a public hearing or Planning Commission approval. The Tustin City Code authorizes the Community Development Director to approve development plans when findings can be made that the location, size, architectural features and general appearance of the proposed development will not impair the orderly and harmonious development of the area. In making such findings, the Zoning Code provides items to be considered such as height, bulk, setbacks, site planning, exterior materials and colors, relationship of the proposed structures with existing structures in the neighborhood, etc. Project applications which comply with all the development standards prescribed by the district in which the project is located would not be required to go through any other discretionary approval. As part of Program 1.2,the City will provide and adopt objective design standards to further ensure that the City CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-47 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 can provide local guidance on design standards to facilitate high-quality,streamlined residential development. These standards would further increase certainty and reduce inefficiencies related to project's design review and approval. As discussed above, when a formal application is submitted for a new construction project in the R-2 or R-3 zones formal Design Review is required and approval by the Planning Commission. Approximate application processing time can range from 3 months,for smaller projects, to 9 months,for larger projects depending on if there is a subdivision included with the application and the level of environmental review. For development proposed that constitutes as a new use in combination with new construction or existing development in excess of 5, 000 square feet of floor area and new apartment or condominium projects in excess of 3 dwelling units or condominium conversions, a Major Conditional Use Permit would be required in addition to Design Review by the City. For new uses with new construction or existing development including 5,000 square feet or less, a Minor Conditional Use Permit would be required in addition to Design Review. Depending upon the parking provided versus that which is required in the Tustin City Code, respective Specific Plan or other planned community,an additional Conditional Use Permit may be required for shared or joint use parking. All projects that trigger a Conditional Use Permit for parking, must be reviewed and approved by the Planning Commission. The number and/or type discretionary applications does not infer that additional time is needed or required to process them. The review of all development is considered and reviewed in a timely manner by City staff. A thorough review and complete review of proposed development is in the interest of public welfare and safety to ensure development would be compatible with existing and future land uses, so as not to induce environmental or health risk as a result of project operation. Therefore, the discretionary or non-discretionary development approval process would be considered reasonable and beneficial, and would not be considered a constraint on housing supply and affordability. For projects of significant benefit to the low-income community,costs can be waived by the City Council. In 2020, City staff developed a streamlined application and implemented a complimentary streamlined review system (i.e., Residential Allocation Reservation or "RAR process') for projects located in the DCCSP and the RHASP. The RAR process, which is an integral part of each plan, is a preliminary review of the project prior to formal submittal for entitlements whereby residential units are potentially allocated to a project based on certain findings. An application with project CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-48 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 description, parking management plan, scaled and dimensioned site plan and architectural elevations are required for the submittal. The allocation is not final until the formal application for the project is submitted, reviewed and approved by the City following required hearings before the Planning Commission and City Council. Additionally, City staff is currently developing citywide ADU design guidelines and updating the Zoning Code to streamline the ability to construct ADUs as an affordable housing option (see Program 1.8 of Section W). Another governmental constraint is the number of staff and amount of staff time available for processing development projects. Since the workload is determined by outside and uncontrolled forces(economy and market for housing and availability of general fund revenue), a shortage of staff time may occur which could lead to increased processing time for development projects. Cumulative In 2018, with the adoption of the Red Hill Avenue Specific Plan (RHASP) and Downtown Commercial Specific Plan (DCCSP), new mixed-use housing opportunities were created along Red Hill Avenue and in certain segments in the City's downtown area. A Voluntary Workforce Housing Incentive Ordinance was also adopted during this same timeframe and is applicable to both Specific Plan areas to encourage development of affordable housing. The Ordinance mirrors the State Density Bonus Law and allows for concession and/or incentives under State Law.At the time of this update,the first mixed use project along Red Hill Avenue within the RHASP is under City review. This is the first project to comply with this Ordinance and includes the provision of 5 percent affordable housing(with a 20% density bonus) and a concession and incentive request for a reduction in open space and a waiver for park fees for the affordable units provided. The waiver of park fees is an option subject to approval by the City Council. The project will be using the State parking ratios for affordable housing.Since adoption of either plan,the City has not received any requests for projects below the City's allowable densities. New construction in the city has continued primarily within the Tustin Legacy area with recycling of older single-family units into new single-family homes or smaller multi-family complexes. Remodeling and rehabilitation of existing residential structures is also significant. Other than the Tustin Legacy area and some vacant parcels within the DCCSP, the City is primarily built out. The cumulative effect of the City's residential development standards does not constrain the expansion of the housing opportunities. Density standards contained with the City's Zoning Ordinance are consistent with densities established in the General Plan.With the establishment of mixed-use zones in the Red Hill Avenue and CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-49 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan areas the City has established increased height limits, eliminated setbacks and included provisions to allow a reduction in parking and/or modifications to the parking standards. The City closely monitors its development standards and land use controls and their impact on development. The City does have an adopted inclusionary housing ordinance which applies only to the Red Hill Avenue and Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan areas,but does not apply Citywide. The City does not have a short- term rental ordinance that could directly impact the cost and supply of residential development. Amendments are made as necessary to the Tustin City Code to ensure development responds to housing market trends.During this monitoring process,the City will also continue to look at ways to further reduce governmental constraints. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-50 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES During the past several years,a number of changes to Statutes resulting from new or amended laws have occurred which focus on housing and, particularly housing opportunities and site identifications and associated required assessments. The changes to the law are a result of Chapter 375, Statutes of 2017 (AB 1397), Chapter 958, Statues of 2018 (AB 686), Chapter 664, Statutes of 2019 (AB 1486), and Chapter 667,Statutes of 2019 (SB 6). Appendix B, Housing Sites Inventory Assessment, with associated Attachments provides the analysis. The purpose of the Housing Element's site inventory is to identify and analyze specific land (sites) that is available and suitable for residential development in order to determine the City's capacity to accommodate residential development and reconcile that capacity with the City's RHNA. The intent of the required site inventory is to ensure the City determines whether there are sufficient adequate sites to accommodate the RHNA by income category. The site inventory and analysis help to determine whether program actions must be adopted to "make sites available" with appropriate zoning, development standards,and infrastructure capacity to accommodate the new development need. As identified in Appendix B, the City has adequate opportunity sites to develop for anticipated growth and RHNA allocation. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II-51 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 HOUSING ELEMENT GOALS AND POLICIES This section of the Housing Element contains the goals and policies the City intends to implement to address a number of housing-related issues. To implement the Housing Element, the following five major issue areas are identified with related goals and policies: 1) ensure that a broad range of housing types are provided to meet the needs of existing and future residents; 2) promote fair housing opportunities; 3) preserve and improve existing extremely low-, low- and moderate-income housing; Preserve and improve the existing supply of low- and moderate- income housing 4) conserve and improve the condition of the existing housing;and 5) ensure that housing is sensitive to the existing natural and built environment. HOUSING SUPPLY/HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES Tustin is home to persons requiring a variety of housing options. At different stages in their lives, people require different housing arrangements. Additionally, the City must respond to the housing needs of all economic segments of the community and ensure that housing discrimination does not serve as a barrier. It is also important that the City maintain a balance of housing types and that the City's housing stock is not overly skewed towards the provision of one type of housing. Finally, the continuing need for affordable housing in the region requires the City to attempt to preserve low-income housing units that are at risk of converting to other uses. The City establishes the following goals and policies to achieve the above objectives. GOAL 1:Provision of an adequate supply of housing to meet the need for a variety of housing types and the diverse socio-economic needs of all community residents commensurate with the City's identified housing needs in the RHNA allocation. Policy 1.1:VARIETY OF HOUSING CHOICES -Provide site opportunities inventory of vacant and underutilized land for development of housing that responds to diverse community needs in terms of housing type, cost and location,emphasizing locations near services and transit. Policy 1.2: ACCESSORY DWELLING UNITS - Facilitate the development of accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units as a means of dispersing affordable units throughout the community. Policy 1.3: REGULATORY INCENTIVES - Support the use of regulatory incentives,such as density bonuses and deferment of impact fees,to offset the CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN III-1 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 costs of affordable housing while ensuring that potential impacts are addressed. Policy 1.4: DEVELOPMENT STREAMLINING - Initiate development permit and zoning code streamlining strategies to encourage and expedite residential development (i.e. accessory dwelling units, affordable housing units, and investments in existing buildings) to reduce and eliminate regulatory barriers. Policy 1.5: SMART GROWTH PRINCIPLES-Encourage infill development or site redevelopment within feasible development sites for homeownership and rental units through the implementation of smart growth principles, allowing for the construction of higher density housing, affordable housing, and mixed-use development (the vertical and horizontal integration of commercial and residential uses) in proximity to employment opportunities, community facilities and services,and amenities. Policy 1.6: FINANCIAL RESOURCES - Pursue grants and other funding opportunities that support the affordable homeownership and rental housing construction and housing rehabilitation for all segments of the population. Policy 1.7: PARTNERSHIPS - Continue to implement best practices for developer selection,project underwriting and due diligence and partnerships for affordable housing developments that receive financial and other assistance to ensure long term viability of affordable housing and to ensure the maximized leverage of local resources. GOAL 2: Promote fair housing opportunities for all people regardless of their special characteristics as protected under state and federal fair housing laws. Policy 2.1: FAIR HOUSING - Affirmatively further fair housing by taking meaningful actions to combat discrimination, help overcome patterns of segregation, and foster equal housing opportunities for all within the Tustin community. Policy 2.2:HOMELESS HOUSING AND SERVICES -Support and expand housing and services that address the needs of the City's homeless population. Policy 2.3:HOUSING OPTIONS-Promote the dispersion and integration of housing for low-and very-low income families throughout the community. Policy 2.4:SENIOR HOUSING-Support the development and maintenance of affordable senior rental and ownership housing and supportive services to facilitate maximum independence and the ability of seniors to remain in their homes and/or in the community. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN III-2 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 Policy 2.5: SPECIAL NEEDS HOUSING - Encourage the availability of affordable housing for special needs households, including large, extremely- low and low-income families. Special needs households include the seniors, large families, female-headed households with children, households with persons with disabilities,and persons experiencing homelessness. Policy 2.6 FAIR HOUSING PROTECTIONS - Promote fair housing opportunities by supporting the continuation of policies that require relocation assistance, and/or to provide incentives and assistance for purchase of the units by low-and moderate-income households GOAL 3: Preserve and improve the existing housing supply and prevent displacement of existing tenants. Policy 3.1:AFFORDABLE RENTAL HOUSING-Support efforts to conserve assisted rental units by work with property owners, tenants, and non-profits to facilitate the preservation of assisted rental housing at risk of conversion to market rate and promote rental assistance programs. Policy 3.2: FINANCIAL RESOURCES - Pursue grants and other funding opportunities that support the preservation and expansion of affordable housing. MAINTENANCE AND CONSERVATION Maintenance and preservation of a City's housing stock prevents unhealthy living conditions; eliminates the need for future, more costly housing rehabilitation; prevents neighborhood deterioration; and encourages community pride. The City enforces codes and provides incentives to promote maintenance and conservation. GOAL 4: Conserve and improve the condition of the existing housing stock. Policy 4.1: SUBSTANDARD HOUSING PREVENTION - Periodically evaluate housing conditions and, when appropriate, adjust the City's community preservation programs to prevent and address any increase in deteriorated housing conditions.

CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN IV-28 OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 APPENDIX A REVIEW OF PAST PERFORMANCE State law establishes an eight-year cycle regulating housing element updates. In compliance with the 5th SCAG RHNA cycle, the Tustin Housing Element was updated in 2013 and was certified by The State's Housing and Community Development Department in compliance with State's Law. The following section evaluates the effectiveness of the goals, policies and programs of the last adopted Housing Element (2013-2021). Review of Past Housing Element Objectives (2013-2021) State law (California Government Code Section 65588(a)) requires each jurisdiction to review its housing element as frequently as appropriate and evaluate: • The appropriateness of the housing goals, objectives, and policies in contributing to the attainment of the state housing goal; • The effectiveness of the housing element in attainment of the community's housing goals and objectives;and • The progress in implementation of the housing element. The evaluation provides valuable information on the extent to which programs have been successful in achieving stated objectives and addressing local needs, and to which these programs continue to be relevant to addressing current and future housing needs in Tustin. The evaluation provides the basis for recommended modifications to policies and programs and the establishment of new housing objectives. The following highlights the housing activities and programs from the past Housing Element: Goal 1: Adequate Housing Supply Available Sites The program objective was to primarily utilize Planned Community Districts and Specific Plans to authorize and encourage mixed-use developments to assist in the development of new affordable owner and rental housing. While unit count was undefined, the program has seen development of over 1,549 units over the 8-year period. Development in the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan area accounted for 1,351 units (Greenwood, Amalfi, Anton Legacy, Levity developments. Of these units, 262 units were affordable. Two new specific plan areas allowing residential development (generally mixed-use residential),where not previously zoned to allow residential,were created in the City CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 A-1 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 in 2018; the Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan (DCCSP) area and the Red Hill Avenue Specific Plan (RHASP) area. Both of these new Specific Plan areas require all future development to participate in the City's Workforce Housing Ordinance (Ordinance No. 1491 adopted in 2018) options contributing to affordable housing mostly through mixed-use. To date,140 units have been built in the DCCSP area during this planning period. New construction/Additions and Alterations 1,549 new residential units were issued permits for constructions during the 2013- 2021 planning period, above the assigned RHNA of 1,227 units, though partially meeting the City's estimated objective of 2,900 new constructed units for said period. Most estimated new construction (2,295) was anticipated to occur in the Tustin Legacy. While sites were available, the market/development community did not respond to the estimated objective during the planning period with probable effects due to the economy, other factors and the Covid-19 Pandemic occurring within said cycle. Expectations were exceeded relative to Accessory Dwelling Units (second units). While ten (10) second units (ADU's) were estimated,actually new ADU's accounted for twenty-seven (27) new units are deemed approved/under construction/in the plan check process. This result is assumed attributed to new State laws, economics and generational characteristics and desires of the population. Additionally, a total of 5,307 residential additions and alterations were processed during this planning period. Accessory Dwelling Unit (Second Residential Units) As noted above, expectations were exceeded relative to Accessory Dwelling Units (second units) resulting in almost three times the 10-unit objective referenced. In 2017, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1479 related to accessory dwelling units (ADUs), formerly known as second residential units. With such, the City was deemed in compliance with State law. Most activity resulted after this 2017 timeframe. Deed restricted affordable units The objective of requiring deed restrictions to ensure continued affordability for low- or moderate-income housing constructed or rehabilitated with the assistance of any public funds as may be legally required was successfully met. Between the years 2013-2021,328 restricted units were established. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 A-2 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 Special Needs Housing The City was effective in addressing housing needs for our special needs population; the disabled (including developmentally disabled), elderly (seniors), homeless, female head of household and large families. Specific results were capturable for the disabled,seniors and homeless categories but less so for the female headed household and large family categories as the metrics were not present. Disabled: Ongoing efforts have continued during this planning cycle regarding the program objective to ensure accommodations for the disabled. Some of the efforts included update of the City's website Housing Section, participation in an adjacent city's task force relative to housing needs of developmentally disabled,and,meeting with Tustin Legacy affordable housing developers to discuss specific needs for this population. Further, implementation requirements and associated program objectives relative to SB 520 were met and continues. The City also ensured that development of multi-family housing to set aside portion of the units to be accessible in compliance with Chapter 11 of the California Building Code. Homeless: The City of Tustin is directly assisting the unsheltered homeless population within Tustin through the collaboration between the Tustin Police Department, CityNet,Orange County Health Care Agency (PERT Mental Health Services),Orange County Rescue Mission,and the Tustin-based nonprofit Operation Warm Wishes,to provide resources and services to the transient homeless in Tustin. In March 2019, the City of Tustin opened a new low-barrier temporary homeless shelter with 57 emergency shelter beds for men,women, and families with children. This facility is operated by Temporary Shelter, Inc., and includes a variety of wrap- around and other supportive services which are administered at the site. This site is being established to ensure that unsheltered homeless individuals with ties to Tustin have the opportunity to be provided with a bed and shelter. The City will continue to develop a strategy that will continue to address homeless needs in the community. Transitional and Supportive Housing: The City of Tustin and Orange County Rescue Mission executed a ground lease to support the Rescue Mission's construction/rehabilitation of a 5.1 acre site to establish a 192-unit transitional housing project (Village of Hope) at the former MCAS Tustin. This site was created by converting former military barracks equipped with private bathroom and kitchenette.The Village of Hope has also increased their transitional housing capacity to up to 387 units, an increase of 195 units . This transitional housing facility is currently in operation. The City also conveyed two four-plexus to the Orange County Rescues Mission to provide transitional housing to homeless veterans to serve 26 homeless veterans and their families, the Tustin Veterans Outpost was completed. The conversion of CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 A-3 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 fourteen(14)units from transitional to permanent supportive housing for low income families also took place and resulted with an amended Homeless Assistance Agreement with Families Forward. The City also entered into an Agreement with Family Promise in partnership with Home Aid Orange County for the construction of a new seven(7)housing unit facility and family resource center (House of Ruth) to provide affordable housing and related support to extremely-low-income families with children who are experiencing homelessness or are at-risk of being homeless.In addition, the City allocates CDBG funds annually to non-profit groups such as Families Forward Transitional Housing Program;Human Options Third Step Transitional Housing Program;and,Mercy House Family Care Center. Zoning Studies The City was to undertake zoning studies to include the creation of zoning provisions which would accommodate mixed-uses in portions of the city,particularly in the Old Town Commercial Area and study the relaxation of certain development standards and incentives for projects which include affordable housing units particularly units for extremely low income if directed by the City Council. In 2018, the Tustin City Council adopted a new specific plan document, the Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan(DCCSP). This Orange County American Planning Association award winning Plan introduced mixed-use and infused the potential for 887 units into the area. To date, 140 new residential units were constructed (all within the Vintage Development). While this development entailed all market rate units, the developer participated in the in-lieu fee option regarding affordable housing provisions. Also in 2018, the Red Hill Avenue Specific Plan (RHASP) was adopted by the Tustin City Council. The RHASP introduced mixed-use to the area and similarly identified the potential for 500 new residential units to the area. Additionally,a Workforce Housing Ordinance was prepared and adopted by the City Council in 2018 which currently affects both the DCCSP and RHASP areas of the City. All future projects in these two areas of the City are required to participate. In 2020, City staff prepared for both the DCCSP and the RHASP areas streamlined application and review systems. Currently in process, City staff is working on citywide ADU design guidelines with examples as well as an ADU zoning update. Additionally, staff is working on residential related mixed-use parking strategies for the DCCSP area. Density Bonus Program The objective was to process all requests for density bonuses in order to facilitate the construction of affordable housing. During the Housing Element planning period, two apartment developments that were granted density bonuses by the City in November 2012 were completed. The Amalfi development is a 533-unit complex CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 A-4 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 with 37 moderate income units. Anton Legacy Apartments is a 100% affordable development with 225 rental units: 88 very low income; 73 low income; and 64 moderate income. A total of 190 density bonus units were realized. Goal 2: Equal Housing Opportunity Fair Housing This objective was to provide housing counseling services to assure equal housing opportunities by assisting approximately 400 residents annually and 3,000 residents by 2021. Between 2013 and 2021, it was estimated by the Fair Housing Foundation that 1,333 Tustin residents requested assistance and were provided with housing counseling services. Additionally, yearly educational outreach activities occurred. The City responds to any general housing and discrimination complaints. The objective was met. Goal 3: Ownership Housing The City continues to encourage new housing construction for home-ownership in a mixture of price ranges particularly in the Tustin Legacy area. The City's goal is to provide a job/housing balance within the Community by encouraging and requiring the developer to construct workforce housing units within the City's owned sites at Tustin Legacy. The City also partnered with Habitat for Humanity in creating two(2)new affordable ownership housing units for families. Goal 4:Affordable Housing Preservation Preservation of Assisted Housing Tustin has a total of 100 low income units that have been at risk of conversion during the review period. The objective to monitor and preserve all of these units at risk was completed successfully. The 100 at-risk units at Tustin Gardens were preserved throughout the review period. Goal 5:Neighborhood Conservation Enforcement of Building and Housing Codes The objective of this program is to continue to enforce building and housing codes to ensure health and safety, rectify Code violations and thereby improve the overall character of the community. The quantified objective was to investigate 30 substandard housing cases annually and 240 cases by 2021. The City's Code Enforcement Staff estimated that over 2,300 property maintenance and housing code CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 A-5 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 related inspections were conducted between 2013 and 2020. The City has been successful in getting property owners to abate code violations. Preservation of Historic Resources The purpose of the City's Cultural Resources Overlay District is to safeguard the heritage of the City by preserving neighborhoods and structures that reflect the City's heritage and past. The objective in the planning period was to rate historic structures where applicable and process certificates of appropriateness as received. Between 2013 and 2021, the Community Development Department issued 163 Certificates of Appropriateness certifying building changes were consistent with design guidelines and appropriate within the District context. Further, the City is in the process of an update to the City's Historical Resources Survey and Report which is to be completed in 2021. Goal 6: Environmental Sensitivity Energy Conservation/Rebate Program All new construction is required to be subject to state energy conservation (Title 24) requirements as a condition for the issuance of a building permit. All new units were required by the City to meet these standards. In addition, since 2013, all properties within the City have the opportunity to benefit from inclusion in the California HERO Program to finance distributed generation renewable energy sources,energy and water efficiency improvements and electric vehicle charging infrastructure. Availability of grants are continuously explored. Water Efficiency In response to Assembly Bill 1881, the City in coordination with the League of Cities Orange County Division and the Orange County Water District prepared and adopted the Water Efficiency Landscape Ordinance. The City's website has been updated with information and guidelines to achieve water efficiency. The City adopted an ordinance addressing synthetic turf landscaping, including material, installation and maintenance, to promote reduced irrigation needs and quality landscaping. In December 2015, the City Council adopted Ordinance 1465 which calls for additional water efficiency and was found to be in conformance with both State law and Governor Browns Executive Order. The City issued 12 residential permits and 24 permits for landscape rehabilitation, subject to the Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance: In 2013, the City also participated in the SoCal Water Smart program where rebates were provided for eligible water saving projects. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 A-6 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 In 2018, the City partnered with other Orange County Cities to prepare a helpful video guide for the public to use regarding water efficient landscaping. Said video received an Orange County American Planning Association award. Progress in Meeting 2013-2021 Housing Element Quantified Objectives The SCAG Regional Housing Needs Assessment(for the 2014-2021 cycle) indicated a new construction need in Tustin by 2021 of 1,227 units, of which 283 units were for very low-income households, 195 for low income, 224 for moderate income and 525 for above moderate income. Table AA-1 summarizes the quantified objectives and compares the City's progress in meeting these objectives.

By reviewing the progress in implementation of the adopted programs, the effectiveness of the last element, and the continued appropriateness of these identified programs, a comprehensive housing program strategy has been developed. The following section reviews the progress in implementation of the programs, the effectiveness of the 2013 Element to date, and the continued appropriateness of the identified programs.The results of the analysis provided the basis for developing the comprehensive housing program strategy for the future planning period, as well as goals for the planning period in progress. REVIEW OF PAST PERFORMANCE State law establishes an eight-year cycle regulating housing element updates. In compliance with the SCAG cycle, the Tustin Housing Element was updated in 1989 at which time it was found to be in compliance with State law,and was updated again in 1994. In 1997, the City of Tustin initiated a comprehensive General Plan update, and the Housing Element was again updated to accommodate the MCAS Reuse Plan and to ensure consistency with other General Plan Elements, as well as to address recent changes in State law. These amendments were adopted on January 16, 2001.

Housing Units Approved/Entitled/Pending and Permitted As conveyed in Table B-1, Summary of RHNA Credits and Remaining Need, there are a total of 658 housing units that are captured from approved/entitled, pending and permitted (projects under construction). In addition, 35 ADUs or JADUs are projected to be constructed during the 2021-2029 planning period. A total of 6,089 additional housing units are therefore needed to achieve the total assigned RHNA of 6,782 housing units. Approved/Entitled There are 532 units in three projects with a total of 132 extremely-low-income transitional housing units and 400 above-moderate income housing units that were approved/entitled at the time of the preparation of this housing element and are being included in the RHNA count. They are as follows: House of Ruth: This entitled project will consist of a 7-unit short-term transitional housing facility on at 1941 El Camino Real, a 0.38-acre vacant parcel, to serve extremely low income homeless families (2 to 7 persons per unit). It includes 2 density bonus units. It will provide support services to avoid long-term homelessness. The project is anticipated to begin construction in 2021/2022.

CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 B-2 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 Projected ADU and JADU Development Throughout the City, an estimated 35ADUs and JADUs are projected to be realized during this planning period. This is based on the recent past performance as well as the new legislation and the City's efforts to allow and encourage such units.A current SB2 grant funded project will result in the preparation of citywide accessory dwelling unit design guidelines with accompanying examples. Suitable Sites Identification and Assessment The City analyzed and assessed a number of sites and areas throughout the community based on these above-mentioned parameters as well as other considerations.While many sites were considered,18 sites,two facilities,and one site category have been identified for Tustin s qualifying sites to accommodate RHNA. Attachments accompany this is Appendix B. Attachment B-1, Sites Identification to meet RHNA, provides a detailed listing of the RHNA related sites. Figure B-2, Site Identification to Meet RHNA,provides a map of the site locations.Additionally,area site aerials and individual site APN maps with summaries are provided for reference organized by each of the three respective specific plan areas as well as an "other' category in Attachment B-2. The total capacity that can be realized from the identified sites is 7,513 units, exceeding by 1,460 units the net RHNA need of 6,053 units. Tustin Legacy Specific Plan (TLSP)Area Tustin Legacy contains two Neighborhoods where residential housing sites will be concentrated for this planning period: Neighborhood D and Neighborhood G. The land is vacant.The zoning for Tustin Legacy is SP 1 and the General Plan designation is TLSP. A total remaining capacity of 3,325 units are allocated throughout the Specific Plan. Neighborhood D has a total of 84.73 acres and is divided into two areas:South(44.86 acres) and North (39.87 acres). Sites within Tustin Legacy do not have a density prescribed to the planning area per the TLSP; however, there is a development cap placed on several of the planning areas. Therefore, a default density of 30 units per acre was applied for the RHASP areas within the cap limit. Site 1B-Neighborhood D South This area includes a recently entitled 400-unit market-rate development(identified as The Landing by Brookfield Residential) on 25.44 acres within one Tract (Tract 18197) which has seven lots. The lots range in size from 2.57 acres to 5.28 acres. Grading activities are currently taking place. The first building permits are planned to be CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 B-3 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 requested in 2021. Construction is in phases and is estimated to be completed during this 2021-2029 planning period. The remainder of this area,19.42 acres,is identified for multifamily type development within the same Tract (Tract 18197) which has three lots. The lots range in size from 5.45 acres to 7.04 acres. A total of 896 units have been allocated to this area. A total of 1,296 housing units are currently allocated in Neighborhood D South to meet RHNA. The City is planning a rezone (Specific Plan Amendment) within three years (by 2024) to accommodate a minimum of 100 additional housing units within this area,to bring the total number of housing units to meet RHNA to 1,396.Assessor parcel numbers have not yet been established as this area is part of the base closure land conveyance from the Department of Navy to the City of Tustin. Neighborhood D South was identified in the past two planning cycles as vacant land available for housing to meet RHNA. A portion of the area has housing that resulted in the past housing cycle (2014-2021). The remaining allocated units, as described above, is expected to be built within this 2021-2029 planning period. Site 1A-Neighborhood D North This portion of Neighborhood D does not currently have any residential planned (no residential units allocated).The City is planning a rezone(Specific Plan Amendment) within three years (by 2024) to accommodate a minimum of 430 additional housing units within this area, bringing the total number of housing units to meet RHNA to 1,396. The focused vacant land is 39.87 acres. It is currently situated within four parcels. The rezone is included in the City's identified programs (see Table H-20, Housing Element Programs 2021-2029).Neighborhood D North was not identified in either of the past two planning cycles as vacant land available for housing to meet RHNA. The 430 housing units are expected to be constructed during the planning period. Site 2-Neighborhood G Neighborhood G currently has housing within the area built over the past two planning cycles. Fifty acres are currently planned and available for future housing developments.A total of 2,029 housing units are currently allocated in Neighborhood G to meet RHNA. The City is planning a rezone (Specific Plan Amendment) within three years (by 2024) to accommodate a minimum of 200 additional housing units within this area, to bring the total number of housing units to meet RHNA to 2,229. Neighborhood G was not identified in the past two planning cycles as needed to meet RHNA. The remaining entitled units, as described above, are expected to be built within this 2021-2029 planning period. There are 13 identified parcels designated for residential development with one parcel at 10 acres and the rest at smaller acreages. Red Hill Avenue Specific Plan (RHASP)Area CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 B-4 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 The Red Hill Avenue Specific Plan was adopted in 2018. The Specific Plan area consists of approximately 52 acres centrally located within the City. It is primarily a commercial and retail corridor that is prime for revitalization.With the Specific Plan, mixed-use residential is now permitted in this area, with a total of 500 residential units allocated through the Specific Plan, 395 units to the north of the freeway and 105 units to the south of the freeway. The RHASP provides a unique Residential Allocation Reservation (RAR) which is approved either by the Community Development Director or the Planning Commission/City Council,as applicable. The RAR is the mechanism with an associated process and timeline that allocates units to a requested development. The units are drawn from a residential allocation bank which assigns units by area and allows for transferability between areas. The maximum density on an individual parcel may exceed 25 dwelling units per acre(the General Plans maximum density) as long as the total dwelling units allocated to the Specific Planning Area is not exceeded. Therefore, a default density of 30 units per acre is achievable in the RHASP area. This Specific Plan was accompanied by a City prepared Program Environmental Impact Report which affords future developers time and significant costs savings yielding building of homes in a more expedient manner. The Zoning is SP 13 and the General Plan designation is RHASP. The maximum allowable building height for residential mixed-use development in the RHASP is 4 stories/50 feet. Four sites within the RHASP area have been identified as relevant sites to meet RHNA: Site 3-13751 -13841 Red Hill Avenue (Pending Project) This site has a pending mixed-use project under review.The pending project includes 137 units (114 base density units plus 20% density bonus), of which 131 are market- rate and six are designated affordable to very low-income households. The site is made up of two parcels on 3.37 acres. The project was approved by the City Council in August 2021. The project is expected to be completed within the first few years of the planning period. This site is under one ownership and is vacant. The project is located in the Planning Area north of the I-5 freeway. This site was not identified in either of the past two planning cycles as vacant land available for housing to meet RHNA. Site 4-13822-13852 Red Hill Avenue (Red Hill Plaza) This non-vacant site consists of four parcels on 5.48 acres, all under one ownership. The current land use is a shopping center with commercial, retail and restaurants. Past development interest discussions have ensued with the owners, interested developers and the City regarding this property.165 units have been assigned to this site. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 B-5 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 Site 5 -1571 El Camino Real (Denny's Restaurant) This non-vacant site adjacent to and under the same ownership as site 4. It is possible that the two sites could merge for one development.The site is 0.90 acre and currently has a restaurant use. 32 units have been assigned to this site. Site 6-14081 -14231 Red Hill Avenue (Stater Bros.Shopping Center) This non-vacant site consists of six parcels on 5.95 acres under three owners. The holdings are all within the same family, yielding a more favorable redevelopment potential. The current land use is a shopping center with commercial, retail, restaurants and service stations(only one active).166 units have been assigned to this site. Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan (DCCSP)Area The Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan was adopted in 2018 and is centered around the intersection of Main Street and El Camino Real in Old Town.The DCCSP consists of approximately 220 acres located in the northern and western portion of the City. This area was not previously zoned to accommodate residential development. With the adoption of a Specific Plan, it is now an option to allow residential (primarily mixed-use residential) in this area.A total of 887 residential units have been allocated through the Specific Plan within six Development Areas. Since Specific Plan adoption, 140 residential units have been developed,and 747 allocated units remain. The DCCSP also provides the unique Residential Allocation Reservation (RAR) which is approved either by the Community Development Director or the Planning Commission/City Council, as applicable. The RAR is the mechanism and associated process with a specified timeline from approval to under construction that allocates units to requested developments. The units are drawn from a residential allocation bank which assigns units by Development Area and allows for transferability between areas. Current housing bank allocations include 45 units to Development Area 1, 92 units to Development Area 2, 200 units to Development Area 3, 150-units to Development Area 4 and,260 units to Development Area 6. The maximum density on an individual parcel may exceed 25 dwelling units per acre (the General Plan's maximum density) as long as the total dwelling units allocated to the Specific Plan area is not exceeded.Therefore,a default density of 30 units per acre is achievable in the DCCSP area. This Specific Plan was accompanied by a City prepared Program Environmental Impact Report which affords future developers time and significant costs savings. The Zoning is SP 12 and the General Plan designation is DCCSP. The maximum allowable building height ranges from two to five stories, depending on Development Area and adjacent land uses. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 B-6 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 None of the DCCSP sites were identified in either of the past two planning cycles as vacant land available for housing to meet RHNA. A total of 10 sites are within this Specific Plan area: Site 7-Development Area 1 This non-vacant site consisting of two parcels, under separate ownership, is located at 365 W. First Street (Think Physical Therapy) and a vacant portion of a property shared with the existing Villa Viento Apartments. The two parcels are 1.1 acres. The Housing Allocation Bank's 45 units for this Development Area is assumed on this site. Sites 8 and 9-Development Area 2 Both sites in Development Area 2 are non-vacant sites. Site 8 (Bel Air Motor Hotel located at 140 W. First Street) is 1.0 acre on one parcel under one ownership. Site 9 includes two parcels:Tustin War Memorial,a City-owned parcel located at 150 E. First Street, and the adjacent Wienerschnitzel restaurant at 105 El Camino Real under one ownership (donated to the City). The Tustin War Memorial building is a multi-war memorial with four plaques along the north wall of the building. The building itself is currently vacant and is permanently closed. At one time, this building was shared with the Tustin War Memorial and The Learning Village Preschool. The school closed in 2018 as did the War Memorial. Together, the site is 0.88 acre. The Housing Allocation Bank's 92 units for this Development Area are assumed between these two sites. Site 10-Development Area 3 The non-vacant site 10(Larwin Square),located at the southwest corner of First Street and Newport Avenue,is approximately 16.47 acres and within one parcel under one owner. It is a multi-building shopping center serving retail, restaurants, commercial and office uses. A major building tenant was a grocery store which vacated in the 2015-2016 timeframe. That tenant space remains vacant. Mixed-use residential development interest has been expressed by the owner's representatives. The Housing Allocation Bank's 200 units for this Development Area is assumed on this site. Conceivably, the site, due to its size, could possibly handle more units if a transfer of units from another development area was requested and approved. Sites 11,12,13,and 14-Development Area 4 CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 B-7 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 All four sites in this Development Area are available vacant land with no buildings on the sites.As this Development Area is part of the City's original Downtown Core, the sites are small and appropriate for infill residential development.All 150 units for this Development Area, identified in the Housing Allocation Bank, are assumed captured within these four sites. Site 11 consists of six small vacant parcels under one owner totaling 1.02 acres. The site is located at 225-255 El Camino Real and 250 Prospect Avenue. Site 12 consists of three vacant parcels totaling approximately 2.29 acres arranged in an L-shaped configuration. All three parcels are held by one owner. Site 13 is a vacant 0.25-acre parcel located at 125 W.Main Street. Site 14 is a vacant 0.44-acre parcel located at 420 El Camino Real.The site is L-shaped and wraps around a building. Sites 15 and 16-Development Area 6 One site (site 15) in this Development Area is vacant and the other (site 16) is non- vacant.All 260 units for this Development Area,identified in the Housing Allocation Bank,are assumed captured between these two sites. Site 15 consists of 2.73 acres on three parcels under one owner along with a portion of an estimated 0.77-acre Caltrans parcel adjacent to the freeway. At the time of writing of this update document, City staff have been working with an applicant for a residential related project for this site. Site 16 is referred to as the El Camino Plaza located at 620 El Camino Real situated at the southwest corner of El Camino Real and Sixth Street. It is 7.81 acres and under one owner on three parcels. The current land uses include retail, restaurants, commercial, and office. Significant owner and developer interests exists on this site with a recent preliminary residential mixed-use project submitted to the City in 2019 as well as a separate recent inquiry for a mixed-use project containing senior housing. Site 17-Enderle Center The non-vacant site 17 (Enderle Center) consists of 11.62 acres,under the ownership of a single family. Currently a commercial center,with redevelopment it is expected to accommodate 413 units. Site 18 -The Market Place CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 B-8 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 The non-vacant site 18 (The Market Place) consists of 48.65 acres, under single ownership. Currently a commercial center, with redevelopment it is expected to accommodate 900 units. Sites to Accommodate Low and Very Low Income RHNA The Housing Element Update is required to calculate if lower income RHNA distribution has more than 50 percent on non-vacant sites. The only sites that would contain true non-vacant sites are in the RHASP and DCCSP areas.It is estimated that between these two areas,a total of 311 of the 1,724 very-low income units,and 196 of the 1,046 low-income units would result in these two areas.That results in 18 percent, significantly lower than the stipulated 50 percent. Further, not all the sites are non- vacant resulting in an even lower percentage expected on non-vacant sites.

As Tustin is in a metropolitan county,HCD allows the use of a defined default density of 30 dwelling units per acre.Sites 1 through 16 are within Specific Plan areas which do not have any density limits and,the General Plan for these areas also do not have density limits. Rather, these Specific Plans offer developers flexibility for innovative CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 B-14 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 design by imposing limits on overall unit counts within the Specific Plan area, without specific density restrictions for individual sites. Therefore, these sites have appropriate density to accommodate lower income units. As such, zoning would be considered appropriate to consider the RHNA for lower income households where the zone allows for a range of 24-35 units per acre which would be the case in these three Specific Plan areas. Several sites have high density development assumptions, exceeding 40 units per acre. Such assumptions are consistent with the current real estate development market in Tustin and surrounding areas. An analysis of realistic capacity finds: 1. Land use controls are not a limiting factor as the sites are within Specific Plans that do not have density restrictions for individual development sites. 2. Required site improvements are feasible due to the relatively large acreages available for master-planned development. 3. Utility systems for the requisite number of units were analyzed and planned for in the preparation of the Specific Plans. Higher-density residential development is now common in recent developments within one to two miles of the Specific Plan areas. For example: • The Bowery, 1,150 apartments and 80,000 sq. ft. of commercial space on 14.6 acres located immediately west of the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan, was approved in 2020. This project's density is 79 units per acre. • Broadstone Arden, 1,221 apartments on 18.8 acres located immediately southwest of the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan,is currently under construction. This project's density is 65 units per acre. • Anton Legacy,225 affordable apartments on 7 acres within the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan,was completed in 2015.This project's density is 32 units per acre. Mixed-use development is permitted and encouraged in Specific Plan areas. However, this is not anticipated to reduce residential development capacity for several reasons: • In addition to the permitted number of residential units,a substantial amount of non-residential development (in excess of 9.5 million square feet in the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan alone)is planned for and accommodated.Most of this nonresidential development capacity has remained unutilized for the past 20 years, and there is no expectation that the demand for nonresidential uses will both utilize the available capacity and displace potential residential development. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 B-15 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 • Development standards allow building heights up to 150 feet,minimizing the impact of such restrictions on density. Lot coverage and floor area ratio restrictions are not imposed in the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan. The Tustin Legacy Specific Plan, adopted in 2003 and amended regularly since, includes plans for water, wastewater, electrical, and other utility services. The availability and capacity of utility services were evaluated in technical studies prepared in support of an environmental impact report (State Clearinghouse No. 1994071005) prepared in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act. The EIR determined the utility plan identified in the Specific Plan would be adequate for the proposed residential and nonresidential development and would not put the citywide system over capacity. The presence of sites over 10 acres does not limit the ability to provide housing for lower-income households.Within the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan,the Anton Legacy project is an example of a large site (7 acres) that was developed with a significant, 225-unit affordable housing project, including 88 very-low-income and 73 low- income units. Similar and larger affordable projects have been developed in the adjacent city of Irvine. No lower-income units are proposed on sites less than one- half acre in size except where lot consolidation is considered feasible due adjacency of parcels and the presence of a single landowner or landowning family. The Tustin Legacy Specific Plan encompasses the former Marine Corps Air Station Tustin,which closed in 1999.Since that time,hazardous waste remediation has been occurring across the site under the authority of the Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command. Currently, over 85 percent of the Specific Plan area has been conveyed to the City of Tustin and other agencies for redevelopment.The majority of the areas not yet conveyed are planned for development as part of a regional park and community college campus. Therefore, the presence of continued remediation activities on the Tustin Legacy site will not significantly impair the site's ability to support the number of residential units anticipated. Emergency shelters and transitional/supportive housing are permitted,and are presently in operation,in parts of the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan. There are no agricultural activities in Tustin or surrounding areas and it is therefore concluded that no farmworker housing is required. Manufactured housing is permitted in residential districts and is not distinguished from site-built housing.

More specific information including details regarding eligible projects and activities and funding availability can be found in this section of the housing element update.The following is a summary of this information along with updates to reflect new state and federal programs. • Senate Bill (SB) 2 Grants In 2017, Governor Brown signed a 15-bill housing package aimed at addressing the state's housing shortage and high housing costs. Specifically, it included the Building Homes and Jobs Act (SB 2,2017),which established a $75 recording fee on real estate documents to increase the supply of affordable homes in California.Due to the various number of real estate transactions that may take place within the county,the annual revenues will also fluctuate. The first year of SB 2 funds were available as planning grants to local jurisdictions. On May 20, 2020, HCD approved $310,000 of funding to the City. Through five projects, the City participates in goals of the Planning Grants Program including, accelerated housing production, streamlined approvals,expedited processing,promotion of development,objective design and development standards, promotion of ADU development, preservation and rehabilitation, as well as assisting in this state mandated Housing Element Updated. The Local Early Action Planning(LEAP)grants was another source of funding intended to aid local jurisdictions in the preparation and adoption of planning documents and process improvements that accelerate housing production and facilitation compliance to implement the sixth cycle of the RHNA. On December 28, 2020, the City was awarded $300,000 in LEAP funding for two projects;facilitating compliance in implementing the sixth cycle of the RHNA and funding assistance with preparation of the 6th Cycle Housing Element Update and, secondly, an implementation tool associated with the Housing Element Update. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 C-1 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 For the second year and onward, 70% of SB 2 funding under the Permanent Local Housing Allocation(PLHA)component of SB 2 will be allocated to local governments for purposes of affordable housing. The City does intend to participate in the PLHA grants to the degree possible. • Partnerships In March 2019, the City of Tustin in partnership with Temporary Shelter, Inc (TSI) opened the Tustin Temporary Emergency Shelter, a 57-bed,low barrier emergency shelter. 100% of Tustin's Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) will partially fund TSI's operation of the shelter. The City will use other funding sources to fully fund the shelter's operation.In establishing the Tustin Temporary Emergency Shelter, the City Council declared a shelter emergency.Under the urgency of a declared shelter emergency and a Federal court order to open a shelter within 120 days,the City asked two(2)nonprofits with experience operating shelters to submit proposals. One nonprofit declined and the City chose Temporary Shelter Inc, a secular affiliate of the Orange County Rescue Mission,to operate the shelter. The Tustin Temporary Emergency Shelter is a safe, clean and dignified low barrier emergency shelter. The shelter is built on a human scale not an industrial scale, with semiprivate living spaces, integrated health care, 24- Hour/seven-day-a-week intake&orientation,and 24-Hour Access to Orange County Behavioral Health staff. The shelter serves as a first-step opportunity with a focus on moving guests forward towards self-sufficiency and healing by providing strategic pathways and interventions that lead to ending their homelessness. PLHA funding (SB 2) will only be allocated to homeless services and,as such,serving the homeless meets the requirement to prioritize investments that increase the supply of housing for households with incomes at or below 60% AMI. 100% of PHLA funds between 2019-2023 will be allocated towards operation of the emergency shelter. SB 2/PHLA funding will continue to assist persons within the City who are experiencing or are at-risk of homelessness, including, but not limited to, providing rapid rehousing, rental assistance, supportive/case management services that allow people to obtain and retain housing, operating and capital costs for navigation centers and emergency shelters, and the new construction, rehabilitation, and preservation of permanent and transitional housing. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 C-2 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 • Preservation At-Risk Housing Rental Units The City shall register as a Qualified Preservation Entity with HCD to ensure that the City will receive notices from all owners intending to opt out of their Section 8 contracts. The City has a total of 417 at-risks units that could be converted to market rate during this planning period. The City will consult with the property owners and continue the affordability levels of the at-risk units through establishment of a program that utilizes California Debt Limit Allocation Committee (CDLAC) Tax Exempt Bonds to finance affordable housing developments for low-income Californians. • Single- and Multi-Family Home Rehabilitation Program The City has identified funding options such as grants and other funds to extend the life of existing, older housing in the community which may be more affordable to those currently residing in the units. The City will identify and allocate available resources to finance the rehabilitation of residential units in target areas to assist seniors, disabled and lower-income households to ensure safety and habitability of housing units and the quality of residential neighborhoods. The City will also explore a partnership with a non-profit organization, such as Habitat for Humanity of Orange County,to administer the program. • First-Time Homebuyer and/or Foreclosure Negotiated Purchase The City's First-Time Homebuyer Program will be re-established which will provide down payment and second mortgage assistance to low- and moderate-income buyers to assist them to purchase an existing home in the City. The City will seek funding to assist new first-time homebuyers in purchasing a home. This may include negotiated purchase of homes in foreclosure, which may represent a lower cost buying opportunity for first- time homebuyers. • Homeless Assistance and Supportive Services The City has allocated$59,400 in 2021-22 CDBG funds to continue its financial support of homeless assistance and supportive services in the City. The City's goal for this program is to assist 150 homeless individuals, per year over the projection period.

CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 C-3 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 • Tustin Legacy New Construction During the next planning period,it is anticipated that additional market-rate residential units will be constructed in both Neighborhood D South and Neighborhood G and that additional affordable residential units will be constructed within Neighborhood D North through an amendment to the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan for this specific area. There are currently no inclusionary housing requirements contained within the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan area. • Administrative Support The City and the Tustin Housing Authority will provide administrative support to implement its affordable housing activities. Additional staffing may be needed to provide a level of administrative support anticipated for the next planning period. Staff will evaluate this in conjunction with a review of streamlining measures and other methods of facilitating the approval of housing projects within the City. During the 2014-2021 housing element update, the City initiated the development of additional very low, low- and moderate-income housing in the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan area(formally MCAS Tustin)and these efforts were furthered with the adoption of two (2) specific plans; the Red Hill Avenue Specific Plan and Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan. through the incentives offered through the State's housing bonus density law. City Staff will look at expanding this to other areas of the City. The City is not an entitlement jurisdiction for HOME funds but may apply to the State for HOME funds. The City is an entitlement jurisdiction for Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds. For FY 2020-2021, the City of Tustin was allocated $847,890 in CDBG funds. These funds may be used for a number of community development purposes besides housing. Given the many competing needs for these funds and the restrictions on these funds for housing purposes, the City does not typically allocate CDBG funds for affordable housing development. As needed and as shown on Table H-19,the City will utilize State and Federal resources to leverage local resources as these funding sources match the City's programmatic objectives. This table is a summary of affordable housing resources.

These obligations extend to state and local governments that receive funds or contract with the federal government. For example,a local government receiving Community Development Block Grant(CDBG) dollars directly from the federal government is obligated to affirmatively further fair housing;under federal law this included completing an assessment of fair housing to inform the consolidated plan. As of January 1,2019,AB 686 extends the obligation to affirmatively further fair housing to all public agencies in the State of California. AB 686 makes changes to Housing Element Law to ensure the long-standing duty to affirmatively further fair housing is part of the housing element of the general plan. Every jurisdiction is responsible for self-identifying internal constraints to furthering fair housing,as well as developing goals and programs that will be implemented to remove identified barriers and improve access to p. This discussion incorporates planning and analysis,which is collectively referred to as an assessment of fair housing(AFH), generally includes: • A summary of fair housing issues in the City of Tustin and an assessment of the jurisdiction's fair housing enforcement and outreach capacity;and • An analysis and summary of fair housing issues and identification of trends and patterns within the City of Tustin in comparison to surrounding cities and the larger Orange County region,including the topics of: o Integration and segregation; o Racially or ethnically concentrated areas of poverty; o Disparities in access to opportunity,including for persons with disabilities;and o Disproportionate housing needs (such as overpayment,overcrowding,housing conditions disproportionately affecting protected classes),and displacement risk. This analysis utilized available federal, state,and local data and knowledge to identify trends and patterns in fair housing issues and identification of trends and patterns within the City of Tustin. Orange County's Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI)was prepared in May 2020 and contains a thorough examination of structural barriers to fair housing choice and access to opportunity for members of historically marginalized groups protected from discrimination by the federal Fair Housing Act(FHA) within Orange County. The Al also outlines fair housing priorities and goals to overcome fair housing issues. In addition,the Al lays out meaningful strategies that can be implemented to achieve progress towards the County's obligation to affirmatively furthering fair housing. The Al was prepared in consultation with Orange County jurisdictions,including the City of Tustin,and with input from a wide range of stakeholders through a community participation process. Barriers to fair housing choice specific to the City of Tustin that were identified in the County Al and the commitments of the City to address identified barriers were incorporated into this AFH regarding.Supplemental data analysis was conducted to further understand potential fair housing issues within the context of AFH topics at the city-level.

Racially and Ethnically Tustin does not include racially/ethnically-concentrated areas Concentrated Areas of poverty (RECAPs);however,the southern portion of the city,near Irvine and Santa Ana,are higher in percentages of population considered poverty status. The City of Tustin has a lower median income than Orange County,but overall percentage of the White population is almost identical. Both income and White populations tend to be concentrated within the northern portion of the city. Access to Opportunities According to State opportunity maps,highest resource areas were identified within census tracts 0524.19, 0756.06,and 0756.07.Seven census tracts were CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 considered"low resource'. High resource census tracts were identified predominately within the northern portion of the city,while the low resource census tracts were predominately within the southern portion of the city. • According to opportunity map scores,Non-Hispanic Whites and Asians have much higher access than do Blacks and Hispanics. • Low resource areas and populations tended to have low education and environment scores. Disproportionate Housing . A higher percent of non-White households experienced Needs housing problems than White households in Tustin. • Non-White households that experienced the greatest proportion of housing problems include Hispanic (71.19 percent),Black(62.40 percent),and Native American(50.00 percent). • The same trend occurred for the county population. • A higher proportion of households are considered overcrowded in southern Tustin,which overlaps with census tracts that contain greater proportions of minority population and low-income households. • According to the 2020 Al, displacement of residents due to economic pressures may be a significant contributing factor to fair housing issues in Orange County and,in particular,in parts of Orange County that have historically had concentrations of low-income Hispanic and Vietnamese residents. Other Contributions . According to 2015-2019 American Community Survey (ACS) data,50.3 percent of households are owner- occupied,compared to 49.7 percent of renter-occupied. Both city and county trends from 2010 to 2019 show that rentals are becoming increasingly more popular. • Within Orange County,Black loan-applicants were the only racial or ethnic category whose majority of applications (less than 50 percent) did not result in an originated loan for the purposes of refinancing and home improvement. Sites Inventory . Housing units in the sites inventory are concentrated in the southwestern half of the city in tracts considered lower resource (tracts 744.06,744.07,744.08,755.12, 755.13, 755.14, 755.15).Several sites are located within tract 755.07,which is identified as a moderate resource area. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 • Despite the lack of new affordable housing units being introduced in northeastern,more affluent areas of the City,online survey results indicated that 65% of respondents chose the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan (TLSP) Area as an area that is most appropriate to develop more housing. • The City's strategy to preserve affordable housing in addition to developing other housing options within identified sites will encourage a diverse housing market that will attract people from all races and income levels in these areas. • Goals identified within Section D.5 below would be implemented citywide and support in furthering fair housing within identified housing sites. • Tustin Legacy (Tract 744.15) is a Master Planned Community that is currently being developed. Although the tract has been identified as low resource, it has been substantially enhanced with new resources within recent years. Improvements include schools, parks,community resources,employment centers, transportation,and a variety of housing.With recent improvements,the Tustin Legacy area surpasses other areas in the City for livability and well-rounded services for households with various income levels. As identified in Section D.3,the following concerns have been identified regarding fair housing issues: • Disparity in access to opportunity between the northeast(higher resources),where there are predominate populations of White residents,and southwest(lower resources) of the city,where there are predominate populations of Hispanic residents; • High segregation and severe housing issues for the city's Black residents; • Concentrated female-headed households and LMI population within Census tract 755.14; • Lack of affordable housing opportunities for Hispanic residents;and • Disproportionate housing problems faced by large family households. Factors that may contribute to these concerns include the following: • Lack of supply of affordable housing in high opportunity areas; • Inequal access to affordable housing for persons with protected characteristics; • Concentrated access to opportunity within high resource areas;and • Lack of education and enforcement,specifically to educate property owners/landlords about State law prohibiting discrimination. The City and County established goals to address fair housing concerns (Section D.5.1) which were included in the 2020 County Al.Several goals are cross-jurisdictional goals;Orange CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 County and all participating jurisdictions have a role to play in implementing those goals. In addition,the City of Tustin committed to individual,which respond to city-specific challenges. Additionally,the City General Plan includes several goals that support in furthering fair housing. If implemented,the goals and strategies identified will serve as an effective basis for affirmatively furthering fair housing by reducing patterns of segregation,mitigating displacement,addressing disproportionate housing needs,and increasing access to opportunity for members of protected classes. D.I. Overview of AB 686 In 2018,the California State Legislature passed AB 686 to expand upon the fair housing requirements and protections outlined in the Fair Employment and Housing Act(FEHA). The law: • requires all state and local public agencies to facilitate deliberate action to explicitly address,combat,and relieve disparities resulting from past patterns of segregation to foster more inclusive communities;and • creates new requirements that apply to all housing elements due for revision on or after January 1,2021. The passage of AB 686 protects the requirement to affirmatively further fair housing within California state law,regardless of future federal actions. It also preserves the strong policy in the U.S. Department of Housing and Community Development's (HUD) Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing(AFFH) Rule as published in the Federal Register in 2015. As of January 1,2019,AB 686 proactively applies the obligation to affirmatively further fair housing to all public agencies in California. Public agencies must now examine existing and future policies,plans,programs,rules,practices,and related activities and make proactive changes to promote more inclusive communities. AB 686 also creates new requirements for all housing elements revised on or after January 1, 2021. These requirements ensure that the obligation to affirmatively further fair housing is a part of a jurisdictions planning process and guiding documents for community development. D.2. Assessment of Fair Housing Issues A fair housing issue is a condition in a geographic area of analysis that restricts fair housing choice or access to opportunity and includes such conditions as ongoing local or regional segregation or lack of integration,racially or ethnically concentrated areas of poverty and affluence, significant disparities in access to opportunity, disproportionate housing needs,and evidence of discrimination or violations of civil rights law or regulations related to housing. This assessment of fair housing considers the elements and factors that cause,increase, contribute to,maintain,or perpetuate segregation,racially or ethnically concentrated areas of poverty, significant disparities in access to opportunity,and disproportionate housing needs. Data and determinations below include findings from Orange County's 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (2020 Al). The 2020 Al includes a thorough CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 examination of structural barriers to fair housing choice and access to opportunity for members of historically marginalized groups throughout Orange County protected from discrimination by the federal Fair Housing Act (FHA). The 2020 Al also outlines fair housing priorities and goals and meaningful strategies that can be implemented at the county and city level to achieve progress towards affirmatively furthering fair housing. The California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) has developed a statewide AFFH Data Viewer,which assembles various data sources and provides options for addressing each of the components within the full scope of the assessment of fair housing. The AFFH Data Viewer was utilized to address the data components of new requirements to affirmatively furthering fair housing in combination with other data such as local or regionally available data. Other data sources used in this assessment include the 2010 U.S. Census, American Community Survey (ACS) 5-Year Estimates,and other sources as referenced below. Patterns were compared from the 2019 ACS 5-Year and the 2010 ACS 5-Year Census data to identify trends within the jurisdiction. Census tracts included the city of Tustin study area for this analysis include the following: • 524.19 (overlaps North Tustin) • 755.12 • 525.02 • 755.13 • 525.24 • 755.14 • 744.07 (overlaps Santa Ana) • 755.15 (overlaps a small portion of • 744.08 Santa Ana and a large portion of • 755.04 (overlaps Santa Ana) Irvine) • 755.05 • 756.06 (overlaps North Tustin) • 755.06 (overlaps Santa Ana) • 756.07 • 755.07 • 757.01 (overlaps North Tustin) Several census tracts overlap the city boundary but were excluded from the study area since a substantial majority of the census tract falls within a neighboring jurisdiction as seen in Figure 1. Census tracts excluded from the study area include the following: • 754.03 • 756.03 • 757.02 • 744.06 • 756.05 D.2.1. Fair Housing Enforcement and Outreach Capacity The Fair Housing Foundation provides fair housing services for Tustin,along with various other cities in Orange and Los Angeles Counties. The Foundation provides landlord-tenant counseling and mediation,rental housing counseling,and community outreach and education. In addition,the Foundation screens fair housing complaints,investigates through testing, engages in conciliation or mediation efforts,and refer complaints to the appropriate administrative agencies where appropriate. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 During the 2015-19 reporting period the County of Orange Urban County Jurisdiction took the following actions (on its own or in cooperation with regional partners and the Fair Housing Council of Orange County (FHCOC)) to overcome impediments to fair housing choice identified in the 2020 Al: • Fair Housing Community Education-During 2015-19,the FHCOC regionally conducted or participated in 467 education and/or outreach activities. Regionally,over 9,550 people were served by these activities. Through its various regional outreach efforts FHCOC distributed over 82,130 pieces of literature on fair housing,its services and other housing-related topics. Additionally,throughout Orange County FHCOC held 32 training sessions for rental property owners/managers. FHCOC presented 16 fair housing seminars, 70 general fair housing workshops. • Fair Housing Enforcement-On a regional basis,FHCOC staff received 363 allegations of housing discrimination and opened 179 cases where the allegations seemed sufficiently meritorious to warrant further investigation and/or action. FHCOC also conducted 362 systemic onsite tests,either paired or'sandwich',51 tests occurring in the jurisdiction and 215 other testing activities. • Housing Dispute Evaluation&Resolution-On a regional basis,activities provided by FHCOC included assisting 7,664 unduplicated households addressing 24,766 issues, disputes and/or inquires. According to the AFFH Data Viewer database,the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity (FHEO) inquiries for the city totaled 33 cases between 2013 and 2021,including 3 disability-,10 race-,1 familial status-, and 19 unclassified-related accounts. Of the 33 inquiries,18 resulted in failure to respond,2 resulted in no valid basis, 7 resulted in no valid issue,and 5 resulted in other disposition. During the 2018-2019 Fiscal Year,the Fair Housing Foundation assisted the City with combatting housing discrimination through managing twelve allegation cases and one discrimination case for Tustin residents,providing services to those individuals throughout the case management process. They also provided ample fair housing education and outreach to further prevent discrimination,assisting 127 Tustin landlords/tenants who were provided with either landlord/tenant counseling,mediation,UD assistance,and/or referral services during the last fiscal year. Overall,the Fair Housing Foundations outreach efforts assisted 672 residents during the 2018-2019 Fiscal Year. Fair Housing Foundation provides a comprehensive,extensive and viable education and outreach program. The purpose of the program is to educate tenants,landlords,owners,real estate agents and property management companies on fair housing laws;to promote media and consumer interest;and to secure grass roots involvement within communities which includes: • Fair Housing Workshops • Certificate Management Training • Walk-In Clinics • Rental Housing Counseling Workshops • Community presentations, staff training, and workshops CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 • Community events,booths,networking,etc. The following Fair Housing Foundation (now virtual) educational workshops are offered free of charge for Tustin residents every month: • Fair Housing Workshops • Rental Counseling Workshops • Fair Housing Workshops in Spanish • Fair Housing and the Housing Industry During COVID-19 Virtual Workshops (Landlord-focused) • Rental Counseling During COVID-19 Virtual Workshops The City advertises these workshops on their website's Fair Housing Services webpage. In addition,the City regularly updates its municipal and zoning codes in accordance with State and federal laws and requirements regarding fair housing. With each housing element cycle, local nonprofits,agencies,advocacy groups,and other fair housing stakeholders are invited to take part in the development and review of the City's housing element (see Section D.2.6). D.2.2. Integration and Segregation Integration generally means a condition in which there is not a high concentration of persons of a particular race,color,religion, sex,familial status,national origin, or having a disability or a particular type of disability when compared to a broader geographic area.Segregation generally means a condition in which there is a high concentration of persons of a particular race,color,religion, sex,familial status,national origin,or having a disability or a type of disability in a particular geographic area when compared to a broader geographic area. Race and Ethnicity The 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. A full breakdown of city demographic data is provided in Table 2.In February 2017,the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) and the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (TCAC) convened a group of independent organizations and research centers that would become the California Fair Housing Task Force ("Task Force'). TCAC and HCD charged the Task Force with creating an opportunity map to identify areas in every region of the state whose characteristics have been shown by research to support positive economic,educational, and health outcomes for low-income families—particularly long-term outcomes for children. These opportunity maps are made from composite scores of three different domains made up of a set of indicators. Table 1 shows the full list of indicators. The opportunity maps include a measure or"filter" to identify areas with poverty and racial segregation. To identify these areas, Census tracts were first filtered by poverty and then by a measure of racial segregation. The criteria for these filters were: • Poverty: Tracts with at least 30 percent of population under federal poverty line CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 • Racial Segregation: Tracts with location quotient higher than 1.25 for Blacks,Hispanics, Asians,or all people of color in comparison to the County Figures 2 and 3 illustrate city and county opportunity ratings by Census tract. Figure 4 identifies concentrations of minority population by Census block group.

These are known as the dissimilarity index and the isolation index. The dissimilarity index is a primary quantitative metric used for identifying patterns of geographic segregation. The isolation index,another quantitative metric for identifying patterns of geographic segregation,compares a group's share of the overall population to the average share within a given sub-area (such as census tract). Table 3 provides thresholds for dissimilarity quantitative analysis.Values for the Isolation Index range from 0 to 100. A larger value means that the average group member lives in a census tract with a higher percentage of people from another group.

The city did not include any areas categorized as high segregation and poverty. The city's resource trend is consistent with the county's overall trend. The county's highest resources were generally located along the coast and within the hillside areas,while low resource areas were clustered near the center of the county along Interstate 5 (I- 5) (see Figure 3). Areas that were indicated as rapidly changing were located along the perimeter between low resource and high resource areas,particularly on the southern coastal side. The City of Tustin is not classified as a rapidly changing area. This pattern indicates a rapidly expanding trend of high resources from the coast,inward towards central Orange County located near I-5. Overall,Orange County experiences moderate levels of segregation,with significant variances in some individual jurisdictions. The Non-White/White value is 44.71,Black/White 46.98, Hispanic/White 52.82,and Asian or Pacific Islander/White 43.19. These values have all increased sharply since 2010,though values had remained consistent from 2000 and 2010. Jurisdictional values tend to indicate low levels of segregation in comparison to the county as a whole,but this is due to the spatial distribution of populations across different jurisdictions rather than within different jurisdictions. Tustin experiences a range in levels of segregation between different racial groups. The Asian or Pacific Islander/White Dissimilarity Index current value was 28.73,indicating a low level of segregation.Non-White/White Dissimilarity Index value was 48.19,indicating a medium level of segregation. Black/White and Hispanic/White Dissimilarity Index values were 66.02 and 57.43,respectively,indicating a high level of segregation. All races experienced an increase in segregation from 2010 to present. Black residents faced an especially large increase in segregation from 2010 to present and is one of the highest Dissimilarity Index values amongst all jurisdictions within Orange County. Overall,Tustin s current Dissimilarity Index values were higher than most other jurisdictions within the county. Isolation values for different populations vary widely across the county and individual jurisdictions.Values for White residents are generally higher than for other residents, likely due CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 to the larger number of White residents overall. In Orange County,White residents have a current Isolation Index value of 55.16,Black residents 3.32,Hispanic residents 52.81,and Asian residents 31.84.Values for the county are higher than values in Tustin for White and Asian residents,again likely due to higher segregation across jurisdictions rather than within them. County Isolation Index values have generally decreased for White residents over time, increased for Hispanic and Asian residents,and remained low for Black residents. City Isolation Index values were slightly higher for Black(4.84) and Hispanic (56.10) residents. City data from 1980 to today shows that, similar to the county trend,Isolation Index values have generally decreased for White residents over time,increased for Hispanic and Asian residents,and remained low for Black residents. The group with the highest level of isolation as of 2000 is the Hispanic population. Before 2000,the White population historically experienced the greatest level of isolation. Persons with Disabilities As shown in Table 2,the city population has relatively low percentages of persons with disability. The city's percentages for hearing,vision,cognitive,ambulatory, self-care,and independent living difficulties were all lower than the county's. Figures 5 and 6 illustrate the population percentage with disability within the county and city. The county includes several clusters of population with disability,including areas near Westminster,Fullerton,Huntington Beach, Lake Forest/Mission Viejo,and Laguna Beach/Dana Point. In the City of Tustin,there are only a handful of census tracts containing 20 percent or greater populations with a disability. As indicated by Table 2,Tustin s population also tends to be slightly younger than the greater Orange County population. Data provided in Table 6 shows to what extent people with different disabilities are able to access and live in the different categories of publicly supported housing within the city. As shown in Table 2,the city's population of persons with disability is 6,477,or 8.1 percent of the population. The City of Tustin includes two types of publicly supported housing,Project-Based Section 8 Housing and Housing Choice Vouchers (HCV). The proportion of people with disabilities that qualify for Section 8 Housing and HCV, exceeds the overall population concentration of people with disabilities. According to FHEO statistics,3 of 33 total inquires within the city of Tustin filed between 2013 and 2021 were disability-related. Tustin allows for reasonable accommodations in the land use and zoning process for developers of housing for persons with disabilities.

In a 2016 housing discrimination study,researchers found that compared to households without children,households with children were shown slightly fewer units and were commonly told about units that were slightly larger,and as a result, slightly more expensive to rent(California Department of Housing and Community Development,2021). This differential treatment is considered discrimination and a type of steering,which occurs on a racial basis as well. Familial status refers to the presence of children under the age of 18,whether the child is biologically related to the head of household,and the martial status of the head of households. According to the HCD AB686/AFFH data tool maps (see Figure 7),all Census tracts in the city identified persons 18 years and over in households living alone as making up less than 20 percent of the overall population across all census tracts. Percentage of persons 18 years and over in households living with a spouse ranged across the city. As shown in Figure 8, percentages of persons 18 years and over in households living with a spouse increased from the southwest to the northeast. Census tracts in south and southwest portion of the city(tracts: 744.06, 744.07, 744.08, 755.12, 755.13, 755.14, 755.15) contained approximately 20 to 40 percent persons 18 years and over in households living with a spouse,while northeast census tracts identified 60 to 80 percent of persons 18 years and over in households living with a spouse. As shown in Figure 9,majority of children in the city are living in married couple households. Throughout Tustin,almost all census tracts indicated 60 percent or greater of children living in married couple households. Conversely,one census tract, 755.14,appears as an outlier with 40 to 60 percent of children living in female-headed households (see Figure 10). Additionally, 75 to 100 percent of households in this census tract were identified as low to moderate income in Figure 11. Overall,the city of Tustin has a slightly higher proportion of families with children (52.64 percent) than the larger region(47.84 percent) (see Table 2).

Figure 11 and Figure 12 show the Lower and Moderate Income (LMI) areas in the city and county by census tract,respectively. HUD defines a LMI area as a Census tract or block group where over 51 percent of the population is LMI (based on HUD income definition of up to 80 percent of the AMI).Similar to trends of high and low resource shown in Figure 1, the city's lowest percentages of LMI population are to the northeast and the highest percentages of LMI populations are to the southwest (tracts: 744.06, 744.07, 744.08, 755.12, 755.13, 755.14, 755.15). LMI populations within the county also followed trends of high and low resource shown in Figure 2. Density of LMI populations tend to increase within inland areas, specifically cities located adjacent to or intersected by the I-5 Santa Ana freeway, State Route 55 freeway,or the 261 Toll Road. The highest percentages of LMI population are located near Fullerton and Santa Ana.Smaller LMI populations are located near Lake Forest, Laguna Niguel,and Dana Point.Within the county,the coastal and hillside communities tend to have lower percentages of LMI populations. D.2.3. Racially and Ethnically Concentrated Areas Racially/Ethnically Concentrated Areas of Poverty 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 a poverty rate that exceeds 40 percent or is three times the average tract poverty rate for the metro/micro area,whichever threshold is lower. Orange County includes two RECAP area clusters scattered throughout the jurisdiction as shown in Figure 13. RECAP areas include southern Irvine (University of California,Irvine campus) and three small census tracts surrounding Santa Ana.Areas that include high percentages of persons who are considered poverty status are dispersed throughout the northcentral Orange County. The southern portion of Orange County does not include RECAP areas and has low percentages of persons considered poverty status. As shown in Figure 14,the city of Tustin does not include RECAP areas;however,the southern portion of the city,near Irvine and Santa Ana where RECAP areas were identified,are higher in percentages of population considered poverty status. Racially Concentrated Areas of Affluence In response to the RECAPs utilized by HUD in its 2015 AFFH rule, scholars at the University of Minnesota Humphrey School of Public Affairs have created the Racially Concentrated Areas of Affluence (RCAAs) metric to more fully tell the story of segregation in the United States. Based on their research,RCAAs are defined as Census tracts where 1) 80 percent or more of the population is white,and 2) the median household income is$125,000 or greater (slightly more than double the national the median household income in 2016).While this is a useful measure nationwide,HCD has adjusted the RCAA methodology to better reflect California's relative diversity.

Table 7 shows percentage of White (alone) population and median income by jurisdiction for the city of Tustin,Orange County,and several surrounding jurisdictions. The percentage of White population in Tustin (59.01 percent) is comparable to the county's (59.25 percent). The city and county median household incomes are also similar with annual incomes of 84,697 and 90,234 dollars, respectively.Santa Ana (28.87 percent) and Irvine (47.80 percent) both have lower percentages of White population,while the city of Orange has a very high percentage (74.03 percent). Generally,the rank of jurisdictions from low to high percentage of White population is also consistent when ranked from low to high income,except for one outlier. The city of Irvine had the highest reported median household income ($105,126) and has a predominately non-White population. According to the 2020 AI,Tustin isolation index for White population was 52.44, which is moderate compared to other jurisdictions within Orange County and is lower than the county's calculated overall value (55.16).

Access to Opportunities Access to opportunity is a concept to approximate place-based characteristics linked to critical life outcomes. Access to opportunity oftentimes means both improving the quality of life for residents of low-income communities,as well as supporting mobility and access to'high resource'neighborhoods. The following section describes locational differences and disparities experienced by different groups in accessing key features of opportunity: educational quality, economic factors,transportation,and environmental health. TCAC/HCD Opportunity Maps The 2021 TCAC/HCD Opportunity Maps are made from composite index scores of three different divisions (economic,environmental,and education) to categorize tracts as low, moderate,or high resource (Table 1 shows the full list of indicators). Categorization is based on percentile rankings for Census tracts within Orange County. Higher composite scores correlate to higher resources. Three opportunity indices (economic,educational,and environmental) use data assembled by the California Fair Housing Task Force on behalf of the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) and California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (TCAC) for the 2020 TCAC/HCD Opportunity Map. The Economic Opportunity Index is a composite of four indicators depicting elements of neighborhood socio-economic character. The Environmental Opportunity Index reflects indicators from the exposures and environmental effects subcomponents of the"pollution burden' domain of CalEnviroScreen 3.0. The Educational Opportunity Index is a composite of four educational indicators capturing information on student proficiency, graduation rates,and student poverty. All indices range from 0 to 100,reflecting percentiles scaled to census tracts in Orange County,and with higher values indicating higher levels of opportunity. The two transportation indicators (transit trips and low transportation cost) analyzed below employ data from version 3.0 of the Location Affordability Index (LAI) 9. The transit trips index measures how often low-income families in a neighborhood use public transportation. The index ranges from 0 to 100,with higher values indicating a higher likelihood that residents in a neighborhood utilize public transit. The low transportation cost index measures cost of transportation and proximity to public transportation by neighborhood. It too varies from 0 to 100,and higher scores point to lower transportation costs in that neighborhood. At the County level,high and highest resource areas are located along the coast in cities such as Huntington Beach,Newport Beach,and Laguna Beach(see Figure 3). Whereas a greater concentration of low resource areas are concentrated in north-central Orange County in cities like Anaheim,Santa Ana,and Orange. Locally,northern and central Census tracts (407.03 and 408.12) scored lower,indicating lower resources than other tracts within the City,although overall scores still indicated"High Resource." Table 2 shows the scores by domain.Tables 8 and 9 provide index scores by race and tract.

Across all tracts in Orange County,non-Hispanic Whites exhibit the highest exposure to educational opportunity (index score of about 59) and non-Hispanic Asians second highest(53). Hispanics have the lowest access to these opportunities (31),with non-Hispanic Blacks in between(46) as seen in Table 8. Several jurisdictions score highly (index values at or above 60) on educational opportunity across all racial categories. These cities include Aliso Viejo,Huntington Beach,Irvine,Laguna Niguel,La Palma,Mission Viejo,and Rancho Santa Margarita. Other jurisdictions obtain low scores on the index.San Juan Capistrano has low educational opportunity, scoring below 10 on the index for all races/ethnicities.San Clemente,Anaheim, and Santa Ana fare similarly poorly,although non-Hispanic Whites score higher (39) than other race/ethnic groups in these cities. Buena Park,Costa Mesa,Garden Grove,Orange,La Habra and Westminster are other cities that struggle with educational opportunity,all with scores in the 30s to 40s on the composite education index. Finally,a few cities have educational opportunity patterns that mirror those of Orange County overall. Non-Hispanic Whites in Fountain Valley have high exposure to educational opportunity (scores of about 60),whereas Hispanics in the city do not (30). In both Fullerton and Tustin,Non-Hispanic Whites and Asians have much higher access than do Blacks and Hispanics. The location of proficient schools and school assignment policies may be significant contributing factors to fair housing issues in Orange County. The schools with the highest proficiency in Orange County are generally located in coastal areas and hillside areas rather than in the center of the county,though Irvine is an exception. This distribution of proficient schools maps on to patterns of residential racial and ethnic segregation,with disproportionately White population in areas with high performing schools and relatively low Hispanic population in those areas. Public education in Orange County is highly fragmented with 27 school districts serving the county's students. District boundaries frequently map onto municipal boundaries, which in turn correlate to patterns of segregation. Inter-district transfers are only available for extremely limited circumstances. This Analysis did not reveal school assignment policies that contribute to segregation within individual school districts. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 According to the 2015-2019 American Community Survey 5-Year Estimate,Tustin has a high percentage of Title I schools (52.6 percent) compared to the County overall (2.22 percent) as seen in Table 10. Title I schools are intended to help meet the educational needs of students by using federal,state,and local funds to support effective,evidence-based educational strategies that close the achievement gap and enable the students to meet the state's challenging academic standards.Schools in which children from low-income families make up at least 40 percent of enrollment are eligible to use Title I funds to operate schoolwide programs that serve all children in the school in order to raise the achievement of the lowest-achieving students. In the City of Tustin,Title I schools are concentrated in tracts 525.02, 744.07,and 755.04,which also consist of a population with higher percentages of lower to moderate income households and a greater total Non-White population when compared to the rest of the city. The City of Tustin has a lack of policies and practices that promote access to more proficient schools for protected groups as these groups experience this disparity both at the local and county level. Employment The Economic Opportunity Index is a composite of four indicators depicting elements of neighborhood socio-economic character. In Orange County,there are significant disparities in access to economic opportunity as Non-Hispanic White residents have the greatest access to economic opportunity. As seen in Table 8,Asian and Pacific Islander residents (49),Native Americans (46),and Black Residents (46) have lower index scores in the high to mid-40s,while Hispanics have the lowest access to economic opportunity of all racial and ethnic groups in Orange County. Tustin s scores similarly reflect this trend as the City has very high scores for non-Hispanic White residents (77) as well has Asian residents (67),but Black and Hispanic residents have significantly lower scores (in the 40s).Despite this trend,job proximity is not a factor that is heavily weighted in these scores as the City has an overall high percentage (66.4 percent) of employment opportunities being located within 29 miles. Compared to the County's job proximity average of 57.6 percent as seen in Table 10,residents from the City of Tustin are generally in closer proximity to jobs when compared to the rest of the County. Transportation The two transportation indicators (transit trips and low transportation cost) analyzed data from version 3.0 of the Location Affordability Indexed (LAI). The transit trips index measures how often low-income families in a neighborhood use public transportation. The index ranges from 0 to 100,with higher values indicating a higher likelihood that residents in a neighborhood utilize public transportation. The transportation cost index measures cost of transportation and proximity to public transportation by neighborhood. It too varies from 0 to 100,and higher scores point to lower transportation costs in that neighborhood. When analyzing Orange County as a whole,non-Hispanic Whites have the lowest score (34), while Asian and Pacific Islanders as well as Native Americans have a score of 38 as referenced in Table 8. Black residents have a score of 39 while Hispanics have the highest score of 42. There are no significant disparities between racial/ethnic groups in the low transportation cost index in most jurisdictions in Orange County. However,in Tustin and Rancho Santa Margarita,White and Asian residents have significantly lower scores on the low transportation cost index CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 compared to Black and Hispanic residents. In specific,Hispanics in Tustin have the highest transit index score (64) followed closely by Blacks (60),while Asian and White residents have significantly lower scores (49 and 42)respectively. This trend is similar to the overall County scores as Hispanics have the highest transit index score,while non-Hispanic Whites have a significantly lower score than other racial and ethnic groups. Environmental 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). This tool uses Census tracts as the unit of analysis where high-scoring Census tracts tend to be more burdened by pollution from multiple sources and are most vulnerable to its effects,considering their socioeconomic characteristics and underlying health status. Pollution Burden scores for each Census tract are derived from the average percentiles of the seven Exposures Indicators (ozone and PM2.5 concentrations, diesel PM emissions, drinking water contaminants,pesticide use,toxic releases from facilities,and traffic density) and the five Environmental Effects indicators (cleanup sites,impaired water bodies, groundwater threats, hazardous waste facilities and generators,and solid waste sites and facilities). Indicators from the Environmental Effects component were given half the weight of the indicators from the Exposures component. The calculated average pollution burden score (average of the indicators) was divided by 10 and rounded to one decimal place for a Pollution Burden (0.1 -10). Population Characteristics scores for each Census tract are derived from the average percentiles for the three Sensitive Populations indicators (asthma,cardiovascular disease,and low birth weight,) and the five Socioeconomic Factors indicators (educational attainment,housing burdened low-income households,linguistic isolation,poverty,and unemployment). The calculated average percentile is divided by 10 for a Population Characteristic score ranging from 0.1 -10. After the components are scored within Pollution Burden and Population Characteristics,the scores are multiplied to calculate the overall CalEnviroScreen Score ranging from 1-100%. CalEnviroScreen reports scores as percentiles to compare tracts across the county. The City of Tustin had an average overall percentile of 43.49 percent as seen in Table 10. Protected groups in the City of Tustin suffer from less access to environmentally healthy neighborhoods as these populations are concentrated in tracts that have the highest scores in the City.Tracts with percentiles over 61 percent are concentrated in the southwest(tracts 744.06, 744.07, 744.08, 755.12, 755.13, 755.14, 755.15),while tracts scoring lower than 43 percent make up the northeastern half of the City,as seen in Figure 16. The tracts with scores over 61 percent also experience other disparities such as a high percentage of low to moderate income households, overcrowding,higher poverty rates,and a higher concentration of protected groups like Hispanics. Census tract 755.15 is one of the highest scoring tracts in the City with a score of 71.48 percent. This tract scored high due to high exposures to toxic releases,traffic,and contaminated drinking water.Figure 16 and Table 10 show that while Tustin had a relatively low score,overall Orange County had a similar average score of 50.01 percent.

Across all tracts in Orange County,non-Hispanic Whites exhibit the highest access to environmentally healthy neighborhoods (index score of about 54). All other racial/ ethnic groups obtain lower index scores in the 40s: Hispanics score lowest at 41,followed by non-Hispanic Blacks (45),non- Hispanic Asian/Pacific Islander (47),and non-Hispanic Native American (48). As seen in Figure 16,higher percentiles are concentrated in northcentral Orange County,with neighboring cities like Santa Ana and Orange having generally higher scores compared to Tustin. As a result,the tracts to the southwest that abut Santa Ana experience higher percentages (tracts 744.06, 744.07, 744.08, 755.12, 755.13, 755.14, 755.15). Extensive use of motorized transportation modes and large particulate generating uses in these tracts contribute to poor air quality. New regulations must be implemented to fulfill Air Quality Management Plan requirements. These regulations must be managed to increase the public health, safety,and welfare in order to lower the scores of these tracts and to increase access to environmentally healthy neighborhoods for protected classes. D.2.5. Disproportionate Housing Needs Disproportionate Housing Needs generally refers to a condition in which there are significant disparities in the proportion of members of a protected class experiencing a category of housing need when compared to the proportion of members of any other relevant groups,or the total population experiencing that category of housing need in the applicable geographic area. For purposes of this definition,categories of housing need are based on such factors as cost burden and severe cost burden,overcrowding,homelessness,and substandard housing conditions. As shown in Table 11,a higher percent of non-White households experienced housing problems than White households in Tustin. Non-White households that experienced the greatest proportion of housing problems include Hispanic (71.19 percent),Black(62.40 percent), and Native American(50.00 percent). The same trend occurred for the county population. Of the family types,family households that included five or more people experienced the greatest burden of housing problems,with a substantial percentage of 75.23 of the city demographic. Of the county population,large families also had the highest percentage of housing problems;however,the gap in percentages amongst the various family types was less pronounced.

There are two levels of cost burden: (1) "Cost Burden' refers to the number of households for which housing cost burden is greater than 30 percent of their income;and (2) "Severe Cost Burden" refers to the number of households paying 50 percent or more of their income for housing. This analysis must address the burdens on both owners and renters (tenure). According to HUD CHAS Databook using data from 2013-2017 ACS,the race and ethnicities that experience the greatest severe cost burden in Tustin are Other and Hispanic,as shown in Table 11. The race and ethnicities that experience the greatest severe cost burden in Orange County are Hispanics and Blacks. Compared to the county,Tustin had similar cost burden percentages across most races. As shown in Tables 11 and 12,non-family households experienced the greatest percentage of severe cost burden within Tustin and Orange County. The percentage of more than five people households was higher than non-family households. A non-family household consists of a householder living alone (a one-person household) or where the householder shares the home exclusively with people to whom he/she is not related. As identified above,the 2020 A.I. compared County of Orange households by household type for 2000,2010,and 2016. The analysis found the number of family households married without children,other families,and non-families are generally increasing,while families married with children are generally decreasing. This could indicate that there is a lack of housing affordable for non-families and single persons that do not rely on two incomes for living expenses. Affordability could be a barrier to housing for persons with disabilities or special needs populations who rely on Supplemental Security Income as their primary source of income, which ranges from$954 to$1,776 per month, depending on their qualifications. Households may experience cost burden when SSI incomes are not adequate to pay for rent and not increasing at rates comparable to rent increases. Majority of renters within City's census tracts had over 40 percent cost burdened households,while majority of homeowners within census tracts had less than 40 percent cost burden (see Figure 17). Due to lack of rental options available in the City,renters could experience lack of affordable options. Overcrowding Households having more than 1.01 to 1.5 persons per room are considered overcrowded and those having more than 1.51 persons per room are considered severely overcrowded. The person per room analysis excludes bathrooms,porches,foyers,halls,or half-rooms. This analysis of Tustin addresses the overcrowding on both owners and renters.

The relative majority of Housing Choice Vouchers is also limited to 0-1-bedroom units(43.97%). 5,561 households or 26.20% of Housing Choice Voucher occupants are also households with children,the highest of any category of publicly supported housing(followed by Project-Based Section 8,with 9.62%). Furthermore,according to the 2018 five-year ACS estimates,the majority of tracts in the City have a low percentage of households that are living in overcrowded conditions,with tracts bordering Santa Ana towards the southwest having higher percentages (tracts 744.06, 744.07,744.08, 755.12, 755.13, 755.14, 755.15).Regionally,census tracts with overcrowded households are concentrated in the northcentral Orange County,particularly in the City of Anaheim and Santa Ana. As a result, within Tustin,all tracts besides the few bordering Santa Ana,have a low percentage of overcrowding ranging between 1 and 8 percent. The tract with the highest percentage of overcrowded living conditions is tract 444.08 (22.68 percent)which is located in the westernmost part of the city and borders Santa Ana (see Figure 18). These southwestern tracts also experience a concentration of minorities,a larger percentage of lower to moderate income households,and other housing problems. The higher average of overcrowded living condition in south and southwestern Tustin suggests that there are could be disparities in the proportion of members of protected classes and housing problems,as populations of minorities and lower income levels experience overcrowding in these parts of the city. Substandard Housing Housing age is frequently used as an indicator of housing condition. In general,residential structures over 30 years of age require minor repairs and modernization improvements,while units over 50 years of age are likely to require major rehabilitation such as roofing,plumbing, and electrical system repairs. A small percentage of units are at risk of improvement due to age as only 31.3 percent of housing is older than 50 years old in all tracts of the city (Table 13). As shown in Table 14,13,034 units,or 52.10 percent of total housing units within the city,were identified as having one or more housing problems (which includes cost burden). Approximately 22.1 percent of households experience one or more of the four severe housing problems. Compared to the county's population,where 45.84 percent of the population has one or more housing problems and 27.1 percent of the population has a severe housing problem,the city of Tustin population experiences slightly more housing problems than the county population;however,the problems experienced are less severe. There are four housing problems in the CHAS data: 1)housing unit lacks complete kitchen facilities;2) housing unit lacks complete plumbing facilities;3) household is overcrowded;and 4) household is cost burdened. A household is said to have a housing problem if they have any 1 or more of these 4 problems.

The race/ethnicity that experiences the second highest percentage of housing problems is Black(62.30 percent).Similarly,the Hispanic population had the greatest percentage of severe housing problems (50.81 percent). The percentage of Hispanic households that experience severe housing problems was substantially greater than all other races and ethnicities. Native American households had the smallest percentage of households that experiences severe housing problems (7.69 percent). These results may be skewed due to the low number of households identified as Native American,Non-Hispanic.

Although there was a surge in deteriorated and abandoned properties in the wake of the foreclosure crisis,particularly in heavily Hispanic areas and with significant harmful consequences for communities,that issue has gradually abated over the ensuring years. Table 14 identifies the number and overall percent of vacant housing units categorized as"Other Vacant" in the American Community Survey within Tustin and nearby jurisdictions.

People experiencing homelessness are vulnerable to violence and criminalization due to their unhoused status. Orange County's 2019 Sheltered Point In Time Count took place the night of Tuesday,January 22,2019. Emergency Shelters and Transitional Housing Programs collected client-level demographic information from individuals and families staying the night in each program. The 2019 Unsheltered Count process took place over two days,Wednesday,January 23 and Thursday,January 24,to ensure the 800 square mile County jurisdiction was canvassed effectively.Within Orange County 3,961 unsheltered homeless persons and 2,899 sheltered homeless persons counted. During the same point-in-time count,95 unsheltered homeless persons and 264 sheltered homeless persons were counted,for a total of 359 homeless persons identified in Tustin. According to the 2020 Al, displacement of residents due to economic pressures may be a significant contributing factor to fair housing issues in Orange County and,in particular,in parts of Orange County that have historically had concentrations of low-income Hispanic and Vietnamese residents. The Urban Displacement Project at the University of California Berkeley identified census tracts in Orange County that experienced gentrification over various time periods from 1990 to present.Several areas that have undergone gentrification at some point since 1990 were identified in Anaheim, Costa Mesa,Dana Point,Fountain Valley,Fullerton, Garden Grove,Huntington Beach,Irvine,Orange,San Clemente,and Villa Park. The city of Tustin was not identified as an area of gentrification. Though the Urban Displacement Project does not map the risk of future gentrification in displacement in Southern California as it does in the Bay Area,the areas most vulnerable to gentrification and displacement in Orange County -going forward-are disadvantaged areas located near areas that have already gentrified and disadvantaged areas located near major transit assets as well as anchor institutions like universities and hospitals. Because the southern and coastal portions of Orange County have relatively few disadvantaged areas, displacement risk is therefore concentrated in inland CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 portions of central and northern Orange County. These areas also tend to have higher Hispanic and Asian population concentrations than the county,illustrating the fair housing implications of displacement. Two key factors in predicting displacement for an area are the loss of low-income households and increases in rent. Median household income of residents in the city of Tustin experienced approximately$15,000 increase from 2010 to 2019,as shown in Table 15. Residents throughout the county experienced a very similar increase within the same timeframe. The mean income for both city and county also increased similar amounts (approximately$20,000). Conversely,the percentage of households that earn$15,000 or less simultaneously increased from 2010 to 2019 and percentages of households earning more than$15,000 annual decreased. Although low- income households are generally increasing,this phenomenon suggests polarizing income, where low-income households in the city are losing income and high earning households are earning greater income.

Throughout most of Tustin,40 percent or greater of renters experience overpayment (cost burden),whereas the majority of homeowners do not experience cost burden(less than 40 percent) throughout most of the city. High percent of cost burden for renters is an indicator of displacement risk,in combination with polarizing income trends. The city of Tustin supports a number of publicly supported housing projects with low-income units. Table 16 includes a breakdown of publicly supported housing residents by race along with the corresponding census tract percentage of population by race.Table 16 shows that the percentage of White residents and Black residents within the housing projects was greater than their proportion of population identified for their corresponding census tract(the census tract that the housing project was located in) population within four of the six City housing projects. Although Hispanic residents made up a large majority of population residing within the housing projects,their percent of population within the project was lower than the corresponding census percentage in almost every instance. Tustin Gardens had an abnormally high percent of Asian population residing within the housing(59.0 percent) compared to the overall Asian population percentage of the census tract(9.2 percent). Overall,the proportion of White and Black residents living in publicly supported housing indicates these populations may be overserved representative of their total percent of the population,while Hispanic residents may be underserved. Although there are no established areas where unsheltered homeless persons congregate in the City, there are several homeless services facilities in the City. One of the shelters in Tustin, the 45-bed Sheepfold shelter provides shelter, food, clothing,job training, and job-referral services primarily to battered women and children.Guests are admitted on a first-come,first-served basis. Usually all beds are fully occupied. The shelter services a large area including many portions of Orange and San Bernardino Counties. Within the City of Tustin, there are a variety of Non-Profit Organizations (NPOs) that provide direct housing and related services to homeless persons. These include Village of Hope, an emergency/transitional home; Sheepfold, a feeding program affiliated with the United Way; Families Forward, a homeless provider; Olive Crest, transitional homes and services for abused and neglected children, and Laurel House, an emergency shelter and transitional housing provider for homeless youth in the City.

A Homeless Assistance Plan has been established for TLSP (formally MCAS Tustin) that is consistent with the continuum of care model embodied in the Consolidated Plans for the Cities of Tustin and neighboring Irvine. The fundamental components of the continuum of care system implemented with the TLSP: • Provide emergency shelter beds and intake assessment • Offer transitional housing and services • Provide opportunities for permanent affordable housing by the private sector. In Tustin Legacy,four homeless service providers, including the Salvation Army, Orange Coast Interfaith Shelter,Families Forward,and Human Options,currently operate 48 family units. The Orange County Rescue Mission operates a 192-unit transitional/emergency shelter (Village of Hope). The Orange County Social Services Agency operates a 90-bed facility for abused and neglected children and their families. During the 2021-2029 planning period,the Orange County Rescue Mission will be expanding their facility to include an additional 125 units. Numerous other agencies provide shelter and other services to the homeless in the nearby cities of Santa Ana, Irvine, and Orange.

Source: City of Tustin,2021 Other Data Tenure Tustin s population includes a balance of renters and homeowners. According to 2015-2019 ACS data,50.3 percent of households are owner-occupied,compared to 49.7 percent of renter- occupied (see Table 18). Households in the county are predominately owner-occupied (57.4 percent). Both city and county trends from 2010 to 2019 show that rentals are becoming CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 increasingly more popular. The city experienced growth,numerically,in both owner-and renter-occupied housing from 2010 to 2019;however,the growth in the renter-occupied housing outgrew the homeowner population,causing a shift in majority to renter-occupied housing. County households were predominately owner-occupied in 2010,but there was a much larger difference between owner-and renter-occupied housing.

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 sensitive information including their gender,ethnicity,income level,age,and familial status. This information is required to be gathered by the Community Reinvestment Act and the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act;however,it does not guarantee that individual loan officers or underwriters will not misuse the information. A report on mortgage lending discrimination by the Urban Land Institute describes four basic stages in which discrimination can occur: • Advertising/outreach stage. Lenders may not have branches in certain locations,not advertise to certain segments of the population, or violate advertising rules with respect to fair housing. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 • Pre-application stage. Lenders may not provide applicants of different racial and ethnic backgrounds the same types of information as other preferred groups or may urge some to seek another lender. • Lending stage. Lenders may treat equally qualified individuals in a different manner, giving different loan terms,preferred rates, or denying a loan based on a factor not related to ability to pay and risk. • Loan administration. Lenders may treat minorities in harsher terms, such as initiating foreclosure proceedings if any payment is late, or by making loans at terms that encourage defaults. Table 19 and Table 20 include percentages of applications that resulted in originated loans and denial by loan purpose within Orange County from 2014 to 2017. Table 21 shows loan application actions by race in the city of Tustin for 2019 as provided by the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA) Dataset. Table 22 further identifies loan denial percentages by race in Tustin for 2019. Comparing the proportion each race makes up of the applicant pool to the percentage denied can provide indication as to whether mortgage lending discrimination is occurring. According to Table 19,White applicants had the highest approval rate across all loan purposes. Further,White applicants had the lowest denial rate across all loan purposes. Black applicants were the only racial or ethnic category whose majority of applications did not result in an originated loan(less than 50 percent) for the purposes of refinancing and home improvement. Black applicants also had the highest loan denial rate for the purposes of refinancing and home improvement and the second highest for home purchase.

Additionally,not all applicants identified their racial/ethnic backgrounds, or multiple categories were selected. The majority of loan applications within the city of Tustin originated from White applicants (59.0 percent) in 2019. However,the proportion of White applicants was lower than the proportion of the city population that identified as White. The second largest proportion of total applicants originated from American Indian and Alaska Native applicants,and the third largest proportion originated from Hispanic or Latino applicants. The proportion of American Indian and Alaska Native applicants was substantially greater (23.6 percent) than the proportion of the city population that identified as American Indian and Alaska Native applicants (0.7 percent). Denial percentages by race were mostly consistent and similar to applicant percentages by race. One outlier was a relatively large denial percentage identified for Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander alone applicants. Approximately 19.9 percent of Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander alone applicants experienced denial,while they only accounted for 0.2 percent of the applicant pool.

Outreach The preparation,adoption,and implementation of a housing element requires a diligent effort to include all economic segments of the community. AB 686 reinforces and builds on this requirement. Under AB 686 and changes to Housing Element Law,the housing element must also include a summary of fair housing outreach and capacity. Public participation is summarized in Appendix E of the Housing Element.Several stakeholder groups were invited to participate in the planning process,including Fair Housing Council of Orange County,Fair Housing Foundation and Family Promise of Orange County. A total of two (2) public workshops were held during the housing element process;the first was held on November 11,2020 with the Planning Commission and the second workshop was held on May 11,2021 and was a joint workshop with the Planning Commission and City Council. Outreach efforts made and public participation opportunities provided included the following: • Housing Element Webpage update • Social media posts (Facebook,Twitter and NextDoor) • Workshop information featured on City's"spotlight" webpage and email blast sent to City news subscriber list • Workshop featured in City and Department website calendars • Public notification posted City's e-notice board (under CC and CPC), at the Tustin Library,and Senior Center • Workshop information posted Tustin News-April 29 (Full Color/ Main Page),reaches approximately 7,000 residents • Workshop information posted Irvine Weekly-May 7 (Full Color),reaches approximately 8,200 residents with anticipated readership of 33,000 • Direct mail postcards (Housing Element Update Workshop included with Strategic Plan Workshop Postcard) o Mailed to 29,885 Tustin residents and 3,457 Tustin businesses • Direct mail postcards focused on Housing Element Update to Interested Parties List • Email blasts with Housing Element Workshop Postcards and Meeting Information- April 21,May 3 and May 10;and • Housing Element Update Workshop held via Zoom at 5 p.m. Due to the Covid Pandemic,public gatherings and meetings were not permitted and therefor all public workshops were online and made available to attend via livestream or by telephone. Remote accommodations provided opportunities to those with geographic barriers to participation. The public workshops and public hearings were held outside of work hours, during the evening,to facilitate participation. Drafts of the housing element will be made available to the public for review and comment. Comments will be reviewed,considered and incorporated,as appropriate,into the document before incorporated into the document and before submission to the Department of HCD for review.

Local Data and Knowledge Based on data from Nextdoor,a free social media platform for neighbors within the same geographical area to share information and communicate information,including neighborhood updates,polls,events,ask for recommendations,as well as list items for sale. Residents on Nextdoor identified over 60 distinct neighborhoods within Tustin.Some common characteristics that Nextdoor users identified as favorable about their community were"quiet", "family friendly","safe","walkability","clean', and several commercial factors such as "restaurants","shopping",and"food". During the first virtual public workshop held on November 10, 2020, City staff provided a briefing to the Planning Commission regarding the pending housing element update that would be needed and the anticipated process and timing. The public was able to provide questions and comments relative to housing is Tustin either before or after the meeting. Five(5)written public comments were provided via email prior to the virtual meeting and included the need for more affordable housing for low-income residents, housing equity with the community, need for additional supportive housing and the shortage of available below-market housing. During the virtual public workshop held on May 11,2021,the public was able to provide questions and comments regarding the housing element process,as well as general information to consider while developing the analysis and policies for the housing element. Leading up to this meeting,an online housing element survey was conducted to learn and understand the housing concerns within the City. Of the 192 individuals that responded to the online survey, 52 percent of respondents live in Tustin and 26 percent both live and work in Tustin. The survey also revealed that 67 percent of attendees believe affordability is the most urgent issue for city housing. Additionally,65 percent of respondents believe the best way to help people who are experiencing homelessness is to better connect people to assistance and services. Approximately 65 percent of respondents also chose the TLSP area as most appropriate to add more housing units. Comments were not provided regarding impediments to fair housing on the basis of race or ethnicity during public outreach;however,indicators suggest that the Tustin Hispanic population may experience inequality resource access compared to the city's White population. As shown in Figure 19,the northeastern portion of the city that experiences high resources (see Figure 1) and greater incomes,contains a sizable gap of predominately White residents. The southwestern portion of the city that experiences low resources and lower incomes,contains a sizable gap of predominately Hispanic residents in tracts 744.06, 744.07, 744.08, 755.12, 755.13, 755.14, 755.15. D.2.8. Other Contributions Other contributions that affect the accumulation of wealth and access to resources include historically disinvestment,lack of infrastructure improvements,and presence of older affordable housing units that may be at risk of conversion to market-rate housing. The City of Tustin invests in its infrastructure through its Capital Improvement Program(CIP), a seven-year program that identifies future projects and cost estimates that allow City staff to CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 properly plan for future capital improvements throughout the City. Major capital improvement projects completed during fiscal year 2017-2018 include: • Annual Major Building Maintenance (Accessibility Improvements,Replace HVAC Units,Repair Tile Roofs) • Eastbound El Camino Real at Jamboree Road Improvement Project • Transit Circulator Feasibility Study • 17th Street Treatment Plan Membrane Replacement As reported in the City's Annual Comprehensive Financial Report 2017-2018,the City's capital projects for the 2018-2019 fiscal year were budgeted at$99.4 million. Budgeted projects include 15 Tustin Legacy Facility improvements, seven public facility improvements,two water projects,four transportation facility improvements,two traffic control facility improvements, three park facility improvements,and one flood control facility improvement.

Using various funding sources (revenues generated from ratepayers and user fees, grants,and bonds),the City acquires,repairs,or replaces the major assets needed to deliver its services (water, sewer, streets,trails, streetlights, traffic signals and storm drains) to the City's residents and businesses. The City of Tustin received an annual allocation of$726,651 from HUD under the Community Development Block Grant(CDBG) program for the Program Year 2017-18. Currently,the City is in the process of completing the design and construction of various capital improvement projects approved and budgeted by City Council for fiscal year 2020-2021. The City lists its current projects and provides project status on the City website. Additionally,various City housing projects are currently under covenants per AB 987. Table 23 is an inventory of all units assisted under federal, state,and/or local programs,including HUD programs, state and local bond programs, City programs,and local in-lieu fee,inclusionary, density bonus,or direct assistance programs. The inventory includes all units that are eligible to convert to non-lower income housing uses due to termination of subsidy contract,mortgage prepayment,or expiring use restrictions. Tustin Gardens is a 223(a) (7)/221(D) (4) project with a Section 8 contract for 99 units and is extended on an annual basis. Their current contract is due to expire on July 31,2022;however, the City has also recently received correspondence indicating that the existing contract could be extended for a new 20-year period which would mean the contract would expire on July 31, 2041. As of the writing of this update,the details of the potential new contract are being confirmed by City staff. There are also Westchester Park(149 all low-income units),Flanders Pointe (32 very-low income,16 low income;plus 9 moderate income-totaling 57) and Chatham Village (212,all low-income units) all of which could also be converted towards the end of the planning period. Various restrictions and incentives affect the likelihood that at-risk units will convert to other uses. Depending on the circumstances, different options may be used to preserve or replace the units. Preservation options typically include: (1) transfer of units to non-profit ownership; (2) provision of rental assistance to tenants using other funding sources;and (3) purchase of affordability covenants.

Summary of Fair Housing Issues As discussed in the previous sections of this analysis,the following conclusions were determined regarding potential fair housing concerns and indicators of certain disadvantaged populations: • The highest resource areas (environment,education,income,minority concentrations, etc.) are in the northeastern portion of the city and the lowest resource areas are in the southwest (tracts 744.06,744.07,744.08, 755.12, 755.13, 755.14, 755.15). The city's high and low resource areas are consistent with the county's overall trend,where the highest resource areas are located along the coastal and hillside areas,while low resource areas were clustered near I-5 in northcentral Orange County. Areas of low resource within the city were also identified as having higher percentages of LMI population. • Black residents faced an especially large increase in segregation from 2010 to present and has one of the highest Dissimilarity Index values amongst all jurisdictions within Orange County. • Census tract 755.14 had a larger percentage (40 to 60 percent) of children living in female-headed households than all other census tracts within the city (see Figure 10). Additionally,a particularly large percentage (75 to 100 percent) of households in this census tract were also identified as LMI in Figure 11. • Overall,the proportion of White and Black residents living in publicly supported housing indicates these populations may be overserved representative of their total percent of the population,while Hispanic residents may be underserved and in need of additional affordable housing opportunities. Additionally,Hispanic households experience a disproportionately high percent of housing problems when compared to all other races/ethnicities within the city. • Further,the northeastern portion of the city that experiences high resources and greater incomes,contains a sizable gap of predominately White residents. The southwestern portion of the city that experiences low resources and lower incomes,contains a sizable gap of predominately Hispanic residents in tracts 744.06, 744.07,744.08,755.12, 755.13, 755.14, 755.15. • Large families experience a disproportionate percentage of housing problems compared to other family types within the city. D.4. Sites Inventory The Tustin Land Use Element and Zoning Code provide residential development opportunities to accommodate the City's 2021-2029 Regional Housing Needs Allocation(RHNA). Tustin s Regional Housing Allocation for the 2021-2029 planning period is a total of 6,782 housing units, including 1,724 units for very-low-income households,1,046 units for low-income households, 1,132 units for moderate-income households,and 2,880 units for above moderate-income households. Figure 20 and 21 detail the designations of vacant and non-vacant land identified to meet the RHNA in the City of Tustin. The vacant and non-vacant land inventory includes land that is currently zoned as specific plan,medium-and high-density residential,and land that can CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 potentially be designated as high-density residential. Realistic capacity of sites has been derived from past development proposals,historical character of the area,inquiries received by the Community Development Department,Disposition and Development Agreements between the City and developers,exclusive negotiations with potential developer(s) authorized by City Council,maximum zoning and general plan densities,and eligible incentives to developers for provisions of affordable housing. Tustin s affordable housing strategy is based on the City's housing needs,affordability gap analysis,and available financial resources.Several broad policies establish the framework for the City's housing strategy as applied to new construction,preservation,rehabilitation,and other housing program objectives. As shown in Figure 20, sites to accommodate the City's RHNA allocation are located near the Interstate-5 (I-5) and in south Tustin,with a majority of the units being allocated in tracts 755.05, 755.07, 755.12, 755.13 and 755.15. The impacts on patterns of socioeconomic and racial concentrations are further discussed below: • Improved Conditions: A variety of suitable sites to meet the City's RHNA allocation have been identified in the 2021-2029 Housing Element Update. These sites consist of remaining units in three specific plans,ADUs/JADUs,and transitional housing. Spatial analysis of the data available on the Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Data Viewer showed that the tracts with low to moderate income households,concentrated minorities,and housing problems were located in the south and southwestern tracts of the City(744.06, 744.07, 744.08, 755.12, 755.13, 755.14, 755.15). As seen in Figure 20,a majority of identified sites are located within these tracts that experience socioeconomic or racial disparities in the City of Tustin. The selected sites combined with the City's Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy,would be able to accommodate residential development of all income levels to further fair housing in the City of Tustin. • Exacerbated Conditions: Factors used in calculating realistic capacity included the size of site parcels,the location and site layout,the potential for lot consolidations where appropriate,the number of owners,the already available and/or additional infrastructure improvements needed were among the many protocols in assessing the realistic capacity of the identified sites. In that the City's General Plan densities are not caps for these three Specific Plan areas,allowed increased densities was also a positive merit towards realistic capacity. Site improvement requirements may only be prevalent in the Tustin Legacy area in that it is vacant land though with significant base infrastructure already prevalent. The identified sites can accommodate a variety of income levels since these parcels are intended to build all types of housing as prescribed by their respective specific plans. The City's current site inventory and approach to accommodate future growth through comprehensive plans is an effective strategy to meet the City's 2021-2029 RHNA allocation. D.4.1. Integration and Segregation: Race and Income Census tracts with the highest concentration of minority races,in this case,a Hispanic majority, are located west of I-5 and border Santa Ana (tracts 744.07,744.08,and 755.15).Similarly,low- and moderate-income populations are concentrated to the southwest in tracts 755.15, 755.13, CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 and 755.12. The site inventory identified most sites within these tracts and are zoned as part of a specific plan or have been identified as at-risk units that are intended to be preserved. The City's strategy to preserve affordable housing in addition to developing other housing options in these areas will encourage a diverse housing market that will attract people from all races and income levels in these areas. Additionally, goals identified within Section D.5 below would be implemented citywide and support in furthering fair housing within identified housing sites. Listed in Table 24 below,the sites identified for RHNA contain variety of income levels. Of the census tracts that RHNA sites are allocated to,three include populations that have less than 50 percent of population that fall within the low to moderate income category,and five include populations that have greater than 50 percent. The majority of RHNA sites are allocated to the TLSP area,which has 60.14 percent population within the low to moderate income category. However,as previously stated,the TLSP area is rapidly developing and changing in accordance with the City's plans for the area. Although the tract has been identified as predominately low to moderate income,it has been substantially enhanced with new resources within recent years. Improvements include schools,parks,community resources,employment centers, transportation,and a variety of housing,which are likely to increase potential for higher wage earning.With recent improvements,the Tustin Legacy area surpasses other areas in the City for livability and well-rounded services for households with various income levels. Therefore,the selected RHNA sites would result in improved conditions. The racial makeup of the census block groups where selected RHNA sites are located include predominately non-White populations (less than 50 percent White). Only one site,Enderle Center,included population with less than 50 percent non-White population. The City's housing strategy is to implement a variety of evenly distributed housing types and affordability levels within each of the housing sites. By doing so,the selected sites would improve diversity and would not concentrate affordable housing within areas of minority populations. In addition to a variety of housing opportunity,new resources and amenities, such as those implemented in the TLSP area,would be improvements to these areas and provide a benefit to the community. Therefore, selected RHNA sites would result in improved conditions. Table 24.

Racially/Ethnically Concentrated Areas of Poverty and Affluence While no racially/ethically concentrated areas of poverty (per HUD's definition) were found in Tustin, some tracts with a high concentration of minorities and LMI populations were found in the southwestern parts of the city (tracts 744.06, 744.07, 744.08, 755.12, 755.13, 755.14, 755.15). In contrast,census tract 755.05 can be considered a concentrated area of affluence as it has a majority White population and a higher range in median income compared to its adjacent tracts. The Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan(DCCSP) ,Enderle Center,and The Market Place a few sites in this tract that would support affordable housing in more affluent areas. Despite the lack of new affordable housing units being introduced in northeastern and more affluent areas in the City,online survey results indicated that 65% of respondents chose the TLSP Area as an area that is most appropriate to develop more housing. Additionally, goals identified within Section D.5 below would be implemented citywide and support in furthering fair housing within identified housing sites. As identified in Table 25 below,the sites selected for RHNA allocation include a range of percent of population considered poverty status.The sites include relatively low percentages of population considered poverty status,overall. The City's housing strategy is to implement a variety of evenly distributed housing types and affordability levels within each of the housing sites. By doing so,the selected sites would improve diversity and would not concentrate affordable housing within areas of high poverty. Therefore, selected RHNA sites would result in improved conditions.

Access to Opportunity Tustin consists of 21 tracts,with an even distribution of opportunity areas. The City's south and southwestern tracts are of low resource,while the northeastern half of the City is considered high and highest resource. Housing units in the sites inventory are concentrated in the southwestern half of the city in tracts considered lower resource (tracts 744.06, 744.07, 744.08, 755.12, 755.13, 755.14, 755.15).Several sites are located within tract 755.07,which is identified as a moderate resource area.Section 2.4 details access to opportunities in these areas and analyzes factors like education,employment,transportation,and access to environmentally healthy neighborhoods. The City's site inventory,which would include a variety of housing affordability,being located primarily in low resource areas can potentially improve the quality of life for residents in these areas and support the mobility of these tracts in attaining higher resources as seen in Figure 22. Tustin Legacy (Tract 744.15) is a Master Planned Community that is currently being developed. Although the area comprises 1,500 acres,there are 800 acres remaining for potential future development with a diverse housing stock,community amenities,and resources. In recent years,the Tustin Legacy area has been enhanced with new resources to serve current and future residents,which will improve opportunities for the area. Based upon the resources listed below,the Tustin Legacy area surpasses other areas in the City for livability and well-rounded services for households with various income levels. These resources include,but not limited to: • Education o Heritage Elementary School o Legacy Magnet Academy (Grades 6-12) o Advance Technology and Education Park(ATEP) community college by South Orange County Community College District • Parks o A total of 91 acres of public and private parks have been completed or are under construction,including Veterans Sports Park,Tustin Legacy Linear Park,Victory Park and another 79 acres of potential parkland are remaining. • Community Resources o Orange County Social Services facility for Abused and Neglected Children and their parents as well as emancipated youth(includes many women headed households and their children) o Rancho Santiago sheriffs training facility o Orange County Animal Shelter o Fire Station o Army Reserve Center o Village of Hope transitional homes for individuals and families with children • Employment o Flight at Tustin Legacy office complex o Hoag medical center and Health South acute care facility o Stater Bros. grocery store and other retail and neighborhood services at the Village at Tustin Legacy CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 o The District at Tustin Legacy shopping center that offers a variety of retail, restaurants,entertainment, groceries and other neighborhood services such as banks, gyms, dance/art studios,barbers and salon services,etc. • Transportation o Metrolink transit facility • Diverse Housing Stock-Residential developments at various income levels including: o Columbus Square (1,075 residential units consisting of single-family homes, duplexes and multi-family homes) o Columbus Grove (465 detached homes) o Field I (376 attached units) o Field II (189 detached units) o Amalfi Apartments (533 apartment units) o Greenwood (375 detached single-family units) o Anton Legacy (225 affordable housing units) o Levity (218 attached units) o The Landing(400 attached and detached homes-under construction) Negative TCAC Opportunity index scores generally indicate that the census tract has lower resource indicator scores than the region. Majority of the sites that RHNA has been allocated to contain negative index scores. The TLSP area includes majority of the City's RHNA allocation. However,as previously stated,the TLSP area is rapidly developing and changing in accordance with the City's plans for the area. Although the tract has been identified as low resource,it has been substantially enhanced with new resources within recent years. Improvements include schools,parks,community resources,employment centers,transportation,and a variety of housing,which will increase opportunity within the area. Therefore, selected RHNA sites would result in improved conditions.

Disproportionate Housing Needs A few trends are immediately clear in housing needs in Orange County. The housing problems include houses that have 1 of 4 housing problems by race/ ethnicity and family type. Overall, across the County,Black and Hispanic residents are more likely to face all of these housing problems,at varying rates across different jurisdictions. Housing problems occur more frequently in more populated areas of the County,including Anaheim and Santa Ana in particular. There are some more obvious discrepancies in rates of housing problems across different demographic groups. Black residents in Aliso Viejo experience hosing problems at a rate of 61.84% ,in Orange (city) at 68.87%,in Tustin at 62.40%, and in Buena Park at 54.49%. Hispanic residents experience rates of housing problems that are high overall,but significantly higher in central and southern Orange County. Asian residents generally experience average or lower rates of housing problems,with exceptions in Garden Grove and Santa Ana,where they experience housing problems at rates of 55.94% and 54.62% respectively. All identified sites to meet RHNA have appropriate zoning to allow residential development, at densities to achieve the estimated capacities and,without inhibitors, such as stringent standards,that don't align appropriately for residential development. There are no provisions that would deter accommodating very low-or low-income housing in the City to aid in lowering the percent of disproportionate housing needs experienced by protected classes.

Identification and Prioritization of Contributing Factors As identified in Section D.3,the following concerns have been identified regarding fair housing issues: • Disparity in access to opportunity between the northeast (higher resources),where there are predominate populations of White residents,and southwest(lower resources) of the city,where there are predominate populations of Hispanic residents; • High segregation and severe housing issues for the city's Black residents; • Concentrated female-headed households and LMI population within Census tract 755.14; • Lack of affordable housing opportunities for Hispanic residents;and • Disproportionate housing problems faced by large family households. Factors that may contribute to these concerns include the following: • Lack of supply of affordable housing in high opportunity areas; • Inequal access to affordable housing for persons with protected characteristics; • Concentrated access to opportunity within high resource areas;and • Lack of education and enforcement, specifically to educate property owners/landlords about State law prohibiting discrimination. D.5.1. Goals for Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing In response to the identified factors above,the City and County established goals to address fair housing concerns,which were included in the County Al. The first six overarching goals below, multiple of which have several strategies listed for implementation,are cross-jurisdictional goals. Orange County and the participating jurisdictions all have a role to play in implementing those goals.Following those goals,individual goals for Tustin are outlined,which respond to local circumstances. 1) Goal 1: Increase the supply of affordable housing in high opportunity areas. a) Explore the creation of a new countywide sources of affordable housing. b) Using best practices from other jurisdictions,explore policies and programs that increase the supply affordable housing, such as linkage fees,housing bonds,inclusionary housing,public land set-aside,community land trusts,transit-oriented development, and expedited permitting and review. c) Explore providing low-interest loans to single-family homeowners and grants to homeowners with household incomes of up to 80% of the Area Median Income to develop accessory dwelling units with affordability restriction on their property. d) Review existing zoning policies and explore zoning changes to facilitate the development of affordable housing. e) Align zoning codes to conform to recent California affordable housing legislation. 2) Goal 2: Prevent displacement of low-and moderate-income residents with protected characteristics,including Hispanic residents,Vietnamese residents, seniors,and people with disabilities. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 a) Explore piloting a Right to Counsel Program to ensure legal representation for tenants in landlord-tenant proceedings,including those involving the application of new laws like AB 1482. 3) Goal 3: Increase community integration for persons with disabilities a) Conduct targeted outreach and provide tenant application assistance and support to persons with disabilities,including individuals transitioning from institutional settings and individuals who are at risk of institutionalization. As part of that assistance, maintain a database of housing that is accessible to persons with disabilities. b) Consider adopting the accessibility standards adopted by the City of Los Angeles,which require 15 percent of all new units in city-supported Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) projects to be ADA-accessible with at least 4 percent of total units to be accessible for persons with hearing and/or vision disabilities. 4) Goal 4: Ensure equal access to housing for persons with protected characteristics,who are disproportionately likely to be lower-income and to experience homelessness. a) Reduce barriers to accessing rental housing by exploring eliminating application fees for voucher holders and encouraging landlords to follow HUD's guidance on the use of criminal backgrounds in screening tenants. b) Consider incorporating a fair housing equity analysis into the review of significant rezoning proposals and specific plans. 5) Goal 5: Expand access to opportunity for protected classes. a) Explore the voluntary adoption of Small Area Fair Market Rents or exception payment standards in order to increase access to higher opportunity areas for Housing Choice Voucher holders. b) Continue implementing a mobility counseling program that informs Housing Choice Voucher holders about their residential options in higher opportunity areas and provides holistic supports to voucher holders seeking to move to higher opportunity areas. c) Study and make recommendations to improve and expand Orange County's public transportation to ensure that members of protected classes can access jobs in employment centers in Anaheim,Santa Ana, and Irvine. d) Increase support for fair housing enforcement,education,and outreach. As identified in the 2020 AI,the following goals were established for the City of Tustin in effort to address factors outlined above: 1) In collaboration with the Orange County Housing Authority (OCHA): a) Attend quarterly OCHA Housing Advisory Committee to enhance the exchange of information regarding the availability,procedures,and policies related to the Housing Assistance Voucher program and regional housing issues. b) Support OCHA's affirmative fair marketing plan and de-concentration policies by providing five-year and annual Public Housing Authority (PHA) plan certifications. c) In coordination with OCHA and fair housing services provider,conduct landlord education campaign to educate property owners about State law prohibiting discrimination based on household income. CITY OF TUSTIN HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN OCTOBER 2021 DocuSign Envelope ID:OE07E7DE-3638-4988-8507-EB263ED01 D05 2) Through the Fair Housing Foundation: a) Provide fair housing education and information to apartment managers and homeowner associations on why denial of reasonable modifications/accommodations is unlawful. b) Conduct multi-faceted fair housing outreach to tenants,landlords,property owners, realtors,and property management companies. Methods of outreach may include workshops,informational booths,presentations to community groups,and distribution of multi-lingual fair housing literature. c) Provide general fair housing counseling and referrals services to address tenant- landlord issues and investigate allegations of fair housing discrimination and take appropriate actions to conciliate cases or refer to appropriate authorities. d) Periodically monitor local newspapers and online media outlets to identify potentially discriminatory housing advertisements. e) Include testing/audits within the scope of work with fair housing provider. 3) Prepare a new Housing Element that is compliant with all current State laws and is certified by the California Department of Housing and Community Development. 4) Utilize funding through State programs (S132) to support affordable housing and/or homeless prevention services. 5) Update zoning ordinance to comply with current State law. As part of this Housing Element, the City has established several programs that address the constraints of this AFH analysis, as well as support the goals that were previously established during development of the County Al. The City's General Plan Housing Element (2021-2029) includes several goals that will support in furthering fair housing within the city. • Goal 1: Provide an adequate supply of housing to meet the need for a variety of housing types and the diverse socio-economic needs of all community residents. • Goal 2: Ensure equal housing opportunities for all existing and future City residents regardless of race,religion,ethnicity, sex,age,marital status or household composition. • Goal 3: Increase the percentage of ownership housing to ensure a reasonable balance of rental and owner-occupied housing within the City. • Goal 4: Preserve the existing supply of affordable housing in the City.
