That the City is in compliance with AB 215 and the most recent revisions were made available to the public from September 2, 2022, to September 8, 2022. Per AB 215, updates have been posted for public review and can be accessed online at www.tustinca.org/Housing Element. R. That on September 12, 2022, the City received written correspondence from HCD approving the revised Housing Element and determining that the draft element, incorporating revisions submitted, meets the statutory requirements of State Housing Element Law described in HCD's May 18, 2022 review letter.

V. The Housing Element Update is a policy document, and its adoption would not, in itself, produce environmental impacts. No actual development or re -zoning is proposed as part of the Housing Element Update. The Housing Element Update would not directly result in changes to land use or zoning designations that would place housing within an area of potential exposure to hazardous materials. Development proposed as a result of the Housing Element Update would also be required to obtain City approval on a project -by -project basis for any discretionary action and undergo a separate environmental process to access potential environmental impacts. Furthermore, mitigation measures that are required by underlying EIR's would be implemented as development is proposed. Therefore, the adopted Negative Declaration concludes that the Housing Element would have no impact. W. That revisions to the Housing Element (GPA 2022-0002) includes clarification language and refinements that do not require subsequent environmental analysis. Therefore, the Initial Study and Negative Declaration, certified by the City Council on October 5, 2021 by adoption of Resolution No. 21-86, is adequate for GPA 2022-0002. Resolution 22-47 Page 3 of 4 DocuSign Envelope ID: 96C623C1-6313-4A8F-8F52-412E47547FAD II. The City Council approves GPA 2022-0002, attached hereto as Exhibit A, for the 6t" Cycle Housing Element.

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: 0 2013-2021: The previous planning period began on October 15, 2013, and ended on October 15, 2021 0 2021 -2029: The current Housing Element planning period began on October 15, 2021 and ends in October 15, 2029. The planning period for the 6th 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 DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN I-1 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN I-2 SEPTEMBER 2022 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. 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. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN I-3 SEPTEMBER 2022 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, and also incorporates new residential development opportunities presented by the Red Hill Avenue Specific Plan and the Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan, Tustin Legacy Specific Plan and other parts of the City. 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. The following provides a brief summary of the City public participation opportunities the City provided during the Housing Element preparation process. 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: • Public Meetings - Multiple public workshops and public hearings held providing opportunities for community and public participation and input, CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN I-4 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 nineteen (19) 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. These revisions also included adjustments to the distribution of units at various income levels (based on RHNA percentages) evenly and proportionately throughout the sites. • Concern over the apportionment, density and geographic placement of additional low-income housing primarily identified to occur within the Tustin CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN I-5 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 engagement and outreach efforts undertaken by the during the update process. • Request policies. CITY OF TUSTIN GENERAL PLAN for the City to consider utilizing skilled and trained workforce DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT I-6 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 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. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN I-7 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 considered the draft Housing Element and determined that the Housing Element and it 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 considered and adopted two Resolutions (No. 21-86 and 21-87), approving the 6th cycle of the City of Tustin Housing Element Update, and authorized staff to submit the adopted Housing Element to HCD for certification. The City subsequently submitted the draft Housing Element to HCD on October 14, 2021 and received a letter of finding from HCD on January 12, 2022. The City revised the draft Housing Element to address the findings and provided the public an opportunity to review the revisions in accordance to Assembly Bill No. 215 for a minimum of seven (7) days, from March 15, 20222 through March 21, 2022. Prior to CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN I-8 SEPTEMBER 2022 resubmittal to HCD, the City considered public input and revised the draft Housing Element, as needed. On March 23, 2022, the City resubmitted a revised draft Housing Element, addressing HCD's finding. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN I-9 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 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.

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 II -3 shows the breakdown of employment by occupation.

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 CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -4 SEPTEMBER 2022 jurisdiction has reached an equilibrium between employment and housing opportunities. Table 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 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.

CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -5 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 two (2) - nine (9) units structures, approximately 24 percent (6,041) are comprised of 10 or more units structures, and two (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. 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. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -6 SEPTEMBER 2022 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. The state and federal standard for housing cost burden is based on the income -to - housing cost ratio of 30 percent and above. According to the most recent Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS) data published by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), 43.44 percent of Tustin households overpaid for housing in 2017. However, the total cost -burdened households have decreased by 5.82 percentage points, from the 49.26 percent reported in 2012. In addition, the number of households that pay 50 percent or more of their gross income toward housing has decreased by 16 percent within five years, from 21.95 percent in 2012 to 18.48 percent in 2017.

Special needs populations include seniors, persons with disabilities, female -headed households, large households, and farmworkers. Many persons within these special needs groups CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -8 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 Orange 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.

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 CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -9 SEPTEMBER 2022 Table I1-10 shows the tenure of households with the head of household aged 65 years or older in the City of Tustin in 2018.

Additionally, because people with disabilities have faced a history of institutionalization -in state hospitals, developmental centers, jails and prisons, etc. - CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -11 SEPTEMBER 2022 ensuring that appropriate community-based housing with appropriate supports exists is critical. People with disabilities are also overrepresented in the unhoused population and any solutions related to homelessness must address appropriate accommodations and accessibility. Many individuals with ambulatory, self-care, or independent living difficulties are able to live independently with appropriate supports in place. These supports include caregivers or In -Home Supportive Services (IHSS). Many seniors, for example, are able to continue living independently as they age and avoid institutionalization by making physical modifications to their homes or obtaining supportive services. According to the 2014-2019 ACS, 6.6 percent or 5,238 persons in Tustin have one or more disabilities. Approximately 2,291 persons 65 and older in Tustin, or 28.4 percent, have one or more disabilities. Demographics by disability and age cohort are identified in Table II -14. The most common disability in the city was ambulatory difficulty, with 8.1 percent of total population and 14.9 percent of senior population having an ambulatory disability. The least common disability in the city is vision difficulty, with 2.6 percent of total population and 3.0 percent of senior population having a vision difficulty.

Large family day care homes with seven or more individuals are permitted uses in all residential districts within the city. According to the California Department of Social Services, there are currently 10 adult residential facilities located in the City of Tustin that accommodate adults with disabilities. The City's process and policies to provide reasonable accommodation to populations with disability are discussed within Housing Constraints, below. Developmental Disabilities According to Section 4512 of the Welfare and Institutions Code, a "developmental disability" means a disability that originates before an individual attains age 18 years, continues, or can be expected to continue, indefinitely, and constitutes a substantial disability for that individual, which includes mental retardation, cerebral palsy, epilepsy, and autism. Many developmentally disabled persons can live and work independently within a conventional housing environment. More severely disabled individuals require a group living environment where supervision is provided. The most severely affected individuals may require an institutional environment where medical attention and physical therapy are provided. Because developmental disabilities exist before adulthood, the first issue in supportive housing for the developmentally disabled is the transition from the person's living situation as a child to an appropriate level of independence as an adult. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -13 SEPTEMBER 2022 The California Department of Developmental Services provides community-based services to persons with developmental disabilities and their families through a statewide system of 21 regional centers. The goal of these centers is to: 1) prevent/ minimize institutionalization of developmentally disabled persons and their dislocation from family and community; and 2) enable this population to lead more independent and productive lives. The Regional Center of Orange County (RCOC) serves approximately 22,000 individuals with developmental disabilities and their families. Within Tustin's two zip codes, the Regional Center currently provides services to 643 residents with developmental disabilities, generating an estimated need for 244 housing units: TABLE II -15 CDISABILITY DEMOGRAPHICS, TUSTIN, CA 2014 -2019 Zip Code 0 -17 years 18+ years TOTAL 92780 238 223 461 92782 108 74 182 Citywide Total 346 297 643 Est.

Therefore, percentages were averaged for the overlapping age cohorts, which yield an estimated factor of 0-17 42.5% need hsg and 18+ 32.5% need hsg As identified by RCOC, among Tustin residents served by the regional center, approximately 86 percent live with a parent, family member or guardian; 8 percent live as independent or in supported living; 2 percent live in a community care facility; and 3 percent live in another type of accommodation. These percentages highlight the need for people with developmentally disabled family members to have a variety of housing choices to provide ongoing care and support. The RCOC has several informational resources on their website about housing options for people with developmental disabilities. In 2013, the RCOC published a paper in conjunction with the Regional Centers Housing Advocacy Council that looked at the housing needs of developmentally disabled persons in the county.2 The paper stated that the housing needs for developmentally disabled residents mirrored those of seniors and aging adults and safe, affordable housing options were needed. The regional centers have identified a number of community-based housing types appropriate for persons living with a developmental disability: licensed community care facilities and group homes; supervised apartment settings with support services; SB 962 homes (for persons with special health care and intensive support needs); and for persons able to live more independently, rent subsidized homes, inclusionary housing, and Section 8 rental vouchers. In addition to services offered through the Regional Center, CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN 11-14 SEPTEMBER 2022 Project Independence in Costa Mesa has assisted hundreds of developmentally disabled individuals to gain the necessary skills to live independently. Orange County has the following housing facilities to serve persons with developmental disabilities3: 1. Harbor Village in Costa Mesa - apartment complex that is a joint project between the RCOC and the California Department of Developmental Services. Approximately 52 units are leased to persons with developmental disabilities and 15 of these units are certified to serve people with significant needs. 2. Integrity Cottages in Anaheim - a former motel that has been converted into 48 affordable rental units. 3. Parc Derian in Irvine - 4 units in this new complex are designated for persons with developmental disabilities. Other units are set aside for veterans and formerly homeless households. Footnotes 1.

Regional Center of Orange County website: www.rcocdd.com/housing Given the variety of persons with disabilities and demonstrated need for a variety of housing types for persons with development disabilities, especially for this eliving with a parent, the City of Tustin is proposing a new program to facilitate and incentivize the construction ohf housing that implement the Universal Design concept. The City will establish a new Program 2.4d which will amend the code to establish a new Universal Design program which strives to produce dwellings that are accessible regardless of race, age, sex, culture, gender, weight and ability. Universal design avoids using special assistive technology, and instead employs design features and consumer products that are easy to use and widely acceptable. By January 2024, the City will amend the zoning code to adopt a Universal Design that incentives developers who implement Universal Design features in projects to be eligible for fee reduction or other development incentives. The program will incentive the development of two Universal Design units on an annual basis, starting in 2024 through 2029. Large Households CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -15 SEPTEMBER 2022 The U.S. Census Bureau considers a household containing five or more persons is a large family. According to the County Al, 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. Farmworkers Farmworkers are traditionally defined as persons whose primary incomes are earned through seasonal agricultural work. 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.

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; (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. 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 CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -17 SEPTEMBER 2022 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. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -18 SEPTEMBER 2022 PRESERVATION OF UNITS AT RISK OF CONVERSION State Housing Element law requires an analysis of the potential for currently rent - restricted low-income housing units to convert to market rate housing, and to propose programs to preserve or replace any units "at -risk" of conversion.

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 Table II -17 includes at -risk units within the city for the 6th planning cycle (2021-2029). Tustin Gardens is a Section 223(a) (7)/221(D) (4) project with a Section 8 contract for 99 units and is extended on an annual basis. The contract was due to expire on July 31, 2022; however, the City has confirmed that the contract has been extended for a new 20 -year period which means the contract now expires on July 31, 2041. As a result, these 99 housing units are no longer considered at risk for this planning period. Table II -18 includes a full inventory of assisted housing within the city. The following table provides a summary of the affordable housing projects at -risk of expiring during this planning period.

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. The City currently enacts Program 3.7, which allows the City to ensure tenants are properly noticed regarding at -risk units and to work with potential purchasers or property owners to provide technical assistance, where feasible, to public and nonprofit agencies interested in purchasing and/or managing units at risk. Additionally, the City has included Program 3.9, which commits the City to registering through HCD so it is aware of any units at -risk of conversion. Program 3.1 requires developers to process a conditional use permit, provide relocation assistance, and/or to provide incentives and assistance for purchase of the units by low- and moderate -income households whenever a project proposes to convert affordable apartments and condominiums. 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 household. The FMR for Orange County for Fiscal Year (FY) 2020 and 2021 is identified below.

The analysis assumes that all housing units would be occupied by very low-income households and calculates the total monthly rent income supported by the maximum allowable housing costs at these income levels. The maximum allowable housing costs were calculated as 30 percent of the very -low-income households as outlined by the 2021 HCD State Income Limits for Orange County. The occupancy assumptions used for this analysis are as follows: • A one -bedroom unit assumes a two -person household. • A two-bedroom unit assumes a three-person household. • A three-bedroom unit assumes a four -person household. • A four-bedroom unit assumes a five -person household. The rent subsidy amount was calculated by subtracting the total monthly rent income supported by the housing costs of very -low-income households from the 2021 HUD Fair Market Rents for each project and unit size. Table I1-20 below summarizes the analysis and estimates the total cost if rent subsidies were to be used to preserve the affordability of the various at -risk affordable housing developments in Irvine CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -24 SEPTEMBER 2022 TABLE II- 20 COST OF PRESERVATION Project Units Chatham Westchester Flanders Total Village Park Pointe 1 br 126 17 - 143 2 br 86 93 50 229 3 br - 39 3 42 4 br - - - 0 Total Monthly Rent Income Supported by Housing Cost $299,653 $229,213 $80,731 $609,596 of Very Low Income Households Total Monthly Rent Allowed $438,354 $374,732 $126,231 $939,317 by Fair Market Rents Total Annual Subsidies $138,702 $145,520 $45,500 $329,721 Required Source: HUD User FY 2021 Fair Market Rent Documentation System CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -24 SEPTEMBER 2022 The total annual subsidy amount would be $329,721 to preserve all 414 at -risk units in Tustin for one year. Therefore, the total cost to extend the affordability of all units for 20 years would be approximately $6,594,420. The California Department of Housing and Community Development maintains a list of entities with the capacity to oversee preservation of affordable housing. These entities have interest to purchase federally -assisted multifamily rental housing projects within Orange County pursuant to California Government Code Section 65863.11: • Neighborhood Housing Services of Orange County Inc. • Century Housing Corporation • Civic Center Barrio Housing Corp. • Long Beach Affordable Housing Coalition, Inc • Housing Corporation of America • Nexus for Affordable Housing • Orange Housing Development Corporation • Riverside Chartable Corporation • Hart Community Homes • Keller & Company • Poker Flats LLC • Coalition for Economic Survival • A Community of Friends • CSI Support & Development Services • ROEM Development Corporation • City of Newport Beach • Abbey Road Inc. • Jamboree Housing Corporation • Innovative Housing Opportunities, Inc. • L + M Fund Management LLC In the event that a development becomes at risk of conversion to market -rate housing, the City will maintain contact with the qualified entities who may have an interest in acquiring at -risk units. The City will assist the entities in identifying potential funding sources to acquire the at -risk units. Potential funding sources that could be used to preserve the affordability are discussed in Appendix C, Affordable Housing Resources. Potential funding sources identified include: • Senate Bill 2 Grants • City Non-profit Partnerships • California Debt Limit Allocation Committee (CDLAC) • Community Development Block Grant funds • New Development CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -25 SEPTEMBER 2022 Purchase of Affordability Covenant Another option to preserve the affordability of at -risk units is to provide an incentive package to the owner(s) to maintain the project as affordable housing. 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 II -17 includes at -risk units within the city for the 6th planning cycle (2021-2029). Table 1I-18 contains 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. 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 Programs 3.7 and 3.9. Replacement of Affordable Units Another option for maintaining the City's affordable housing inventory is to replace existing affordable housing units with new construction and application of new affordability covenants once the current covenants expire. Based on the HUD Total Development Cost (TDC) Limits. These development costs include land and acquisition, construction, architecture and engineering, interest and financing charges, developer fees, and other miscellaneous soft costs.

CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -27 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -28 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -29 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 persons 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 2021), monthly mortgage payments on median priced single-family detached homes CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -30 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 II -22 and II -23).

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. 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 CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -32 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 II -24). 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 Program 1.10, Development and Permit Streamlining, and Program 1.5, Zoning Code Streamlining Program. 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. Parking requirements could be a potential constraint for single-family and multi- family residential development. Required parking for multi -family projects is two CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -33 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 1.2, that commits to adopting new objective design standards that facilitate high-quality residential development; while ensuring the provision of adequate parking. Additionally, Program 1.13 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 of land use intensity. They ensure proper and effective transportation within the community and are commonly used by local governments as a development tool. When designed properly, with features such as limited windows and door openings along the walls facing single-family zoned properties or using stepped building heights and design to minimize intrusion to the privacy of existing residents, Conditional Use Permits for such development projects have been granted.

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. RHASP and DCCSP 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 following two specific plan areas will also accommodate additional residential units.: • Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan (DCCSP) (adopted July 3, 2018) • Red Hill Avenue Specific Plan (RHASP) (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. he 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. A total of 137 units have been entitled at this site and building ad grading plans are nearing the conclusion of the plan check review and would shortly thereafter be permitted for construction. Residential Allocation Reservation Process Prior to adoption of the DCCSP and RHASP, the project areas were zoned for commercial use. Both Specific Plans retain commercial focus; however, they also introduce residential uses to serve as an economic engine to invigorate the businesses within the areas. The two Specific Plans do not entitle residential uses by right and there are no "growth caps' built into the DCCSP and RHASP. Rather, the Specific Plans establish a process called Residential Allocation Reservation (RAR) as a pre- requisite for allocating residential units that have been analyzed within Program EIR for the respective Specific Plan. The intent of this approach is to allow for a streamlined process for developers to benefit by tiering of the already certified CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -38 SEPTEMBER 2022 environmental studies. Additional units can be added in the future with the appropriate environmental review (i.e. supplemental or addendum to EIR). RAR Review Process Overview The Specific Plan provides a two-step residential allocation reservation ("RAR") application process: (1) a preliminary allocation ("Preliminary RAR") application, and (2) a final allocation ("Final RAR") application. At the Preliminary RAR stage, the Community Development Director ("Director") reviews and considers whether a proposed project substantially complies with the applicable portions of the Specific Plan. If it does, the Director "shall make the Required Findings (approve the first phase of the Preliminary RAR process, which shall provide a preliminary allocation of residential units for the project." If it does not, the Director must inform the applicant in writing of the standards with which the project does not substantially comply within thirty days of receiving the application (Gov. Code, § 65943, subd. (a).) To approve the Preliminary RAR, the Director must find the project substantially conforms to applicable Specific Plan provisions. Preliminary RAR Review Considerations The Community Development Director may approve the submitted plans if he/she finds that the location, size, architectural features, and general appearance of the proposed development will not impair the orderly and harmonious development of the area, the present or future development therein, the occupancy thereof, or the community as a whole. In making these findings, the Community Development Director shall consider the following for all new development projects within the DCCSP and RHASP: 1) The development is consistent with the overall vision, goals, and intent of the RHASP. 2) The development is consistent with the policies and intent of the Development Plan, including the Urban Design plan. 3) The project, including the proposed uses and requested entitlements, comply with the Permitted Land Use and Activities Table and complements and contributes to the project area. 4) The development substantially complies with or obtained approval of a modification to conformance with the Commercial and/or Mixed -Use Development Standards. 5) The development substantially complies with or has obtained approval of a modification to conformance with the Commercial and/or Mixed -Use Design Criteria. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -39 SEPTEMBER 2022 6) Compliance or modification thereto with applicable Development Standards and Design Criteria is demonstrated and ensured through Design Review of the project site plan, building elevations, floor plan, parking plan, landscaping plan, lighting plan, access plans, refuse plans, and any other applicable plan(s) or document(s). 7) Required parking for the project is provided entirely on-site, or by an alternative means, which is approved concurrently or made a condition of approval. Approval of a parking alternative will have a beneficial impact and does not adversely affect development or the surrounding area. 8) The development demonstrates high-quality architectural design and site planning and reflects the nature of the site and the surrounding area through the following: a) Incorporating roof forms and facades that provide building articulation, create visual interest, and reduce the appearance of uniform building massing. b) Creating a design that is both cohesive and varying with respect to architectural style, architectural details, windows, doors, colors, and materials. c) Facilitating pedestrian orientation through building placement, building scale, and architectural design. d) Ensuring associated elements including parking, service areas, landscaping, lighting and pedestrian access, and amenities are functional and serve to enhance the overall appearance and experience of the project. e) Siting and designing structures that relate to and respect adjacent development and sensitive land uses. 9) The development is supported by existing infrastructure or will be supported by infrastructure improvements paid for by the developer. 10) The developer consents to enter into a mutually agreeable Development Agreement if the City requests one. 11) The project impacts are assessed through the approved RHASP Program EIR or through subsequent environmental documentation in compliance with the CEQA guidelines. Preliminary RAR Findings for Approval Findings required for approval of the RAR include the following: 1) The project is substantially consistent with the uses, design criteria, and development regulations of the RHASP. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -40 SEPTEMBER 2022 2) The project implements the vision of the Specific Plan related to excellence in architectural design, provision of substantial usable common open space, provision of public art (which may consist of murals, sculpture, decorative fountains or other art deemed acceptable) connectivity to adjacent parks and/or schools if appropriate, and pedestrian connections. 3) The number of units requested is within the thresholds established by the Specific Plan's Program EIR. 4) The overall project meets the findings for Design Review per Tustin City Code 9272 as follows: a) To provide for the review of building design, site planning, and site development in order to protect the increasing value, standards, and importance of land and development in the City due to the urbanization of Orange County. b) To retain and strengthen the unity and order of the visual community. c) To ensure that new uses and structures enhance their sites and are harmonious with the highest standards of improvements in the surrounding area and total community. RAR Process- Potential Constraints During the draft Housing Element review, HCD staff identified the need to evaluate the RAR process as a potential governmental constraint to housing development as the process creates "uncertainty" and generally is a discretionary review process that requires review by the Community Development Director. In addition, the City was advised to consider and propose a Program(s) to address such a potential for a housing development constraint. The RAR process and structure was created with public input during the Specific Plan preparation process, prior to its adoption. Upon considerations of HCD's input the City understands the perception that the RAR process could be perceived as a barrier to development due to the discretionary review process and decisions making authority that lies with the Community Development Director. The City has revised Program 1.4(a) to incorporate the following: • Conduct an analysis of the Residential Allocation Reservation (RAR) process applicable in the following Specific Plan areas: DCCSP and RHASP and identify any potential barriers to housing developments. • Amend DCCSP and RHASP Specific Plans review procedures and/or applicable Specific Plan sections to eliminate governmental constraints that may pose a barrier to housing development, with an emphasis on eliminating redundant processes, ambiguities and discretionary action(s). CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -41 SEPTEMBER 2022 • Amend DCCSP and RHASP to provide for additional housing units aligned with economic objectives and infrastructure capacities by re-evaluating the housing units allocated to each geographic area in each Specific Plan. • Conduct environmental analysis, as needed, to accommodate additional housing units in each Specific Plan area, aligned with economic objectives and infrastructure capacities. In addition, the City is currently engaging with a consultant to provide recommendations for amendments and policy changes to both specific plans based on market factors and with the goal of incentivizing housing development, and the report will be completed by December 2022. Any recommended policy changes will be incorporated into the Specific Plans. Furthermore, City's Design Review process is in place for Tustin to ensure that incremental development complements the City's historic character and to ensure that new development enhances the quality of life for the community. However, the process may pose a constraint to development by requiring compliance with subjective design guidance which potentially adds additional review times which results in additional project costs. As part of Program 1.2, the City will amend the Tustin City Code 9272 (Design Review) to remove subjective design guidance will and adopt objective design standards to facilitate high-quality, streamlined residential development. These new objective design standards would serve to further increase certainty and reduce inefficiencies related to project's design review and approval. 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 Tustin Legacy 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 CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -42 SEPTEMBER 2022 to market demand, the City processed an amendment to the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan that allowed for additional renter -occupied units, including affordable rental units. Within Neighborhood D of the Tustin Legacy 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. 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 is market demands will influence the timing of development at Tustin Legacy. 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 Tustin Legacy 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 Tustin Legacy 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 II -21 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 CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -43 SEPTEMBER 2022 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, 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 PC Zone 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. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -44 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 encourages development of housing for lower income households within the Red Hill Avenue and Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan areas. The City's density bonus program will be updated in compliance with current State law.The City also enacts an inclusionary housing ordinance under Chapter 9B of the City's Municipal Code, Voluntary Workforce Housing Incentive Program. The ordinance is specifically applicable to the RHASP and DCCSP areas. Unlike the other cities within Orange County, Tustin's Inclusionary Housing Ordinance is voluntary. This means it only becomes applicable when a developer makes the voluntary election to request the discretionary and valuable benefit of adding residential units. If the subject area already provides residential zoning, unlike other cities' ordinances, Tustin does not require inclusionary housing. The City's ordinance is similar to a housing residential overlay zone, whereby the underlaying zone is unchanged and in the case of Tustin, the underlaying zone maintains the commercial development rights. In the case of Tustin, the "overlay zone" allows residential development subject to meeting the Ordinance's criteria summarized in the table above, where the development of residential units requires compliance with the providing of affordable units and in some case, the payment of an in -lieu fee. The table below provide a summary of the percent of units required to be affordable and the various options available to satisfy the requirements. This table describes the applicability of the four options available to satisfy the ordinance requirement, for an example 137 unit residential project. The in -lieu fee only applies to two of the four options shown in the table below. As the table shows, the requirement may be satisfied with the provision of affordable units, or a combination of the provision of units and the payment of an in -lieu fee. The in -lieu fee only applies to half the base units. For example, a project with 137 units, which included Density Bonus units. The base units was 114 units. The Developer will pay to City an in -lieu fee totaling $786,657, which is calculated by multiplying the $13,801 voluntary housing incentive program in -lieu fee by 57 (one- half (1/2) the 114 base units provided on-site). Other cities calculate the fee per unit for all units. If Tustin is to calculate per unit basis, the in -lieu fee of $786,657 divided by 137 units and would equate to as little as $5,742 per unit, which is well below other cities in Orange County. If this is translated to per square foot cost, with an average size of unit being 1,300 square feet, Tustin's CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -45 SEPTEMBER 2022 in -lieu fee would be $4.41 per square foot, which is much lower than other cities in Orange County.

In smaller projects, on-site units are not required to be constructed. A typical cost for constructing a 1,000 square foot unit on-site is approximately $200,000. As an example, for a 19 -unit project, a total of 3 affordable units would have been required at $600,000 or more, if subjected to 15% affordable units on site. Instead, project developer could opt to pay in lieu fee of $12,651 per unit. This is considerably lower than adjacent cities such as Irvine at $17,000 per unit, Huntington Beach at $16,500, Santa Ana at $15,000 per unit and La Habra at $200,000 per unit. A memorandum titled, Inclusionary Housing Ordinance Information and Comparison, dated August 17, 2021 was prepared by the City's Community Development Department for City Council. The memo was prepared in consistency with the City's CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -47 SEPTEMBER 2022 desire to remain informed in order to create affordable and workforce housing options. The analysis prepared identified that 140 market rate units have been built and the City has collected over $1,979,600 in In -Lieu fees in the Downtown Commercial Core Plan. The Fund is to be expended exclusively to provide housing to extremely low, very low, low, and moderate -income households in the City of Tustin, along with administration and compliance monitoring of the voluntary workforce housing incentive program which includes the following: • Assistance with affordable housing projects with "gap" financing • Assistance with extension of affordable deed restrictions on applicable units At that time, the City was also reviewing a pending development application (13751 and 13841 Red Hill Avenue) which was approved and resulted in six new very low- income units and add approximately $730,000 to the fund. Staff reviewed a sampling of fifteen (15) other Orange County cities, and of those, nine (9) do not have an inclusionary housing ordinance, and six (6) cities have a mandatory affordable housing requirement, which allows the payment of in -lieu fees under certain circumstances. Based on the research conducted, the City's fees and program are comparable or lower to other Cities' ordinances in Orange County. Below is a summary of the six cities with inclusionary housing ordinances.

However, the City's current ordinance will be evaluated as part of Program 1.4 "(New) Voluntary Workforce Housing" in conjunction with the reassessment on the effectiveness of the DCCSP and RHASP to determine if adjustments are desired. The City is currently engaging with a consultant to provide recommendations for amendments and policy changes based on market factors, and the report will be completed by December 2022. Any recommended policy changes will be incorporated into to Zoning Code within 12 -months of the City receiving the completed report. The City has amended Program 1.4 to incorporate changes to respond to identified constraints resulting from the study." CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -49 SEPTEMBER 2022 Housing for Persons with Disabilities/Reasonable Accommodation As discussed in previously and shown in Table I1-14, the City of Tustin includes a population of approximately 5,238 persons with a disability, or 6.6 percent of the population. As the population ages, the proportion of persons with disabilities generally increases. The City's population of persons with disabilities is inclusive of all races, ethnicities, and sexes. The City's population of disabled persons is relatively comparable or smaller compared to the County's disabled population, as discussed in Appendix D. Nevertheless, the City continues to assess and remove potential barriers to the provision of reasonable accommodation of housing persons with disabilities and the construction of new group homes and residential care facilities in the city. 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). CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -50 SEPTEMBER 2022 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. The City of Tustin, as described in Tustin City Code (TCC) 9278, provides for the reasonable accommodation of regulations and procedures to ensure equal access to housing, and to facilitate the development of housing, for individuals with disabilities. A request for reasonable accommodation may be made by any individual with a disability, a parent or legal guardian of a minor with a disability, his or her other legally authorized representative, or a developer or provider of housing for individuals with disabilities, when the application of a land use, zoning or building regulation, policy, practice or procedure, or other requirement acts as a barrier to fair housing opportunities. The request may be made by filing a completed development application form with the Community Development Department and would need to include the following information: • A description of the requested accommodation; • A reference of the specific code for which accommodation is being requested; • The basis for the claim that the applicant is considered disabled; • Reason(s) that the requested accommodation is necessary for the individual with disability to use and enjoy the dwelling; • Confirmation that the property is the primary residence of the disabled person; • Plans and detailed information of any proposed physical improvements to the property; and • Any other information necessary to evaluate the proposed request for reasonable accommodation. Requests for reasonable accommodation are administrative in nature, and the Community Development Director has the authority to grant reasonable accommodation requests, without a public hearing. The decision to grant, grant with conditions, or deny a request for reasonable accommodation must be consistent with fair housing laws and required findings below: • The housing, which is the subject of the request for reasonable accommodation, will be occupied as the primary residence by an individual with a disability • The requested accommodation is necessary to make housing available to an individual with disabilities protected under the fair housing laws CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -51 SEPTEMBER 2022 • The requested accommodation would not impose an undue financial or administrative burden on the City; and • The requested accommodation would not require a fundamental alteration in the nature of the City's land use and zoning codes and policies. The application and review process is designed to be a streamlined review process that is based on the facts provided by the requestor. The ability to grant with conditions, ensures that the department has the flexibility to consider the unique nature of the applicant's request and grant the accommodation that best suits the needs of the requestor. As per the application materials listed above and required finding, the intent is only to verify that the request of the applicant and to ensure that the beneficiary of the reasonable accommodation is being properly considered in accordance with fair housing laws and the city codes. The city code has a few provisions that may act as constraints for those seeking reasonable accommodations, including the following: • 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. • 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. • An approved reasonable accommodation is a personal accommodation for the disabled individual requesting such accommodation and does not run with the land. • At such time that the reasonable accommodation is no longer necessary or the disabled individual no longer resides at the property, the property shall be restored to its previous condition unless the Community Development Director determines that it would be impractical or financially unfeasible to return the property to its previous condition. • A deed restriction shall be recorded against the property to ensure compliance with conditions of approval, potential removal of the accommodation, and use restrictions. • Presently, applicants for reasonable accommodation must provide a $500 deposit which is billed hourly for staff time. • Requires that an applicant for reasonable accommodation to provide confirmation that the property is the primary residence of the disabled person. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -52 SEPTEMBER 2022 The City will complete a code amendment as identified in a new program (Program 2.4d) to ensure that the code does not require the property to be in compliance with existing codes, so that the reasonable accommodation can proceed without the needs for any additional investments, which may prevent someone from seeking a reasonable accommodation. In addition, the code will be amended to state that a Reasonable Accommodation shall not be required to be reviewed with other requested entitlements, and rather, that it can be acted upon independent of any other applications. The City will also remove the annual inspection as they may be a deterrent to anyone seeking a reasonable accommodation. The code will also be amended to state the any reasonable accommodation may be transferred to another person with the same or similar accommodation, upon the City receiving a request to transfer the accommodation, which would serve the property a desirable location for persons with disabilities. The code will also be amended to clearly state that the reasonable accommodation shall not conditionally require the return of the property to its original condition as they may be a deterrent for some seeking a reasonable accommodation. The code will be amended to remove the deed restriction recordation so that is does not serve as a constraint for those seeking an accommodation. And finally, the City will take a resolution to the City council to remove the current applicable fee and remove the requirement that the applicant provide confirmation that the property is the primary residence of the disabled person since a disabled person may spend time at other properties other than their primary residence. 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 also discussed in Appendix D. Emergency Shelters, Transitional Housing, and Supportive Housing Homelessness is a statewide concern that affects many cities and counties. Throughout the country, homelessness has become an ongoing problem. Factors contributing to homelessness include the general lack of housing affordable to low- and moderate -income persons, increases in the number of persons whose incomes fall below the poverty level, reductions in public subsidy to the poor, and the deinstitutionalization of the mentally ill. The issue of homelessness is considered regional in nature. Nomadic tendencies of homeless persons make it difficult to assess the population accurately. Orange County's 2019 Sheltered Point -In -Time Count was taken on the night of Tuesday, January 22, 2019. In Tustin, the 2019 Point -In -Time count identified 95 unsheltered homeless persons and 264 sheltered homeless persons, for a total of 359 homeless persons. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -53 SEPTEMBER 2022 SB 2 defines the following: "Emergency Shelters" as housing for homeless purposes intended for occupancy of less than six (6) months, where no person is denied occupancy because of inability to pay. "Transitional housing" is rental housing for stays of at least six (6) months where the units are re -circulated to another person after a set period. "Supportive Housing" has no limit on the length of stay, provides supportive services and is occupied by low-income persons with disabilities and certain other disabled persons. SB 2 requires the City to identify the needs for Emergency Shelters in its Housing Element and to designate zoning districts adequate to accommodate the need. In those districts, emergency shelters must be allowed without a conditional use permit or other discretionary approvals. The City may apply certain written, objective development and management standards, such as number of beds and length of stay, if no zoning district exists that meets this standard. Alternatively, a community may require a conditional use permit for emergency shelters if they already have enough shelters to satisfy the need; or have entered into partnership agreement with up to two other communities to develop an emergency shelter that will meet their collective needs. Transitional and Supportive Housing must be treated as a residential use of property, subject to only to same restrictions that apply to other housing of the same type in that zone. Homeless Accommodation - Implementation With the closure of the Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) Tustin, the City was provided with opportunities to address homeless accommodations. As part of the conveyance process and under the Base Closure Community Redevelopment and Homeless Assistance Act of 1994 (The "Redevelopment Act"), the City of Tustin as, the Local Redevelopment Agency (LRA) was required to consider the interest of the homeless in buildings and property on the base in preparing the Reuse Plan (MCAS Tustin Specific Plan/Reuse Plan), now known as the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan (TLSP). In developing the Reuse Plan, one criterion the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) utilized to determine the adequacy of the Reuse Plan was whether the Plan considered the size and nature of the homeless population in the communities, in the vicinity of the installation, and availability of existing services to meet the needs of the homeless in such communities. At the time of the preparation of the Reuse Plan, it was estimated that there was a total net homeless need of 411 persons in the City of Tustin and City of Irvine (a portion of the TLSP is located within the City of Irvine jurisdiction). A large portion of this homeless need was identified as necessary to support emergency transitional housing for youth and individuals. The local homeless need as described in both Tustin and Irvine's Consolidated Plans also indicated a gap in the continuum of care in the areas of vocational and job training/ educational opportunities, some emergency and transitional housing units for individuals and families, support services, and affordable ownership units. Accordingly, the Homeless Assistance Plan CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -54 SEPTEMBER 2022 for TLSP was adopted to addresses the problem of homelessness by utilizing the continuum of care model promulgated by HUD for accommodating the needs of the homeless in a manner which is consistent with the Consolidated Plans approved for the cities of Tustin and Irvine. The fundamental components of the continuum of care system implemented with the TLSP: • Provides emergency shelter beds; • Offers transitional housing and support services which enable homeless persons to progress to self-sufficiency; and • Provides opportunities for permanent affordable housing by the private sector. As a result, the adopted TLSP provided sites and designated land uses to accommodate the identified homeless needs. The following sites were set aside in implementing the homeless accommodation at TLSP: • An approximate five (5) acre transitional/ emergency shelter site was set aside for accommodation of the homeless at Tustin Legacy (formerly MCAS Tustin). The City acquired a site from the Department of Navy; initially ground leased the site, and ultimately conveyed the site to the Orange County Rescue Mission at no cost and facilitated the construction of Village of Hope, a 262 - bed emergency housing facility, without the need for a Conditional Use Permit. The project has been completed and Village of Hope is currently operating and will be expanded in the near future to include 125 additional beds. • A four (4) acre site was recommended by the City of Tustin and deeded directly by the Department of Navy at no cost to the Orange County Social Services Agency for the development of an abused and neglected children and their families and emancipated youth facility with 90 bed capacity. The project is complete. • A total of 50 transitional housing units were originally included in the Base Reuse Plan. Based on further negotiations with non-profit homeless providers, a total of 32 new transitional housing units were constructed and conveyed at no cost to non-profit homeless providers at TLSP. These units are dispersed throughout the TLSP community to allow integration into the community. The sites are designated as residential sites and the units were constructed in conjunction with market rate units subject to only those restrictions that apply to other residential uses. The units are transparent since the units are developed identical to those of market rate units in terms of size, materials, locations, etc. No special or other entitlement applications were required for the creation of these units other than those typically required for development of residential units at TLSP. In addition to the homeless accommodation on-site at TLSP, the City also facilitated the purchase of a 16 CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -55 SEPTEMBER 2022 unit transitional housing facility off-site for one of the homeless providers. The City subsidized the creation of these units through the use of housing set aside funds and Federal HUD Homeless Assistance funds. Emergency Shelters, Transitional Housing and Supportive Housing Emergency Shelters is defined as housing for homeless purposes intended for occupancy of less than six (6) months, where no person is denied occupancy because of inability to pay. In the City of Tustin, emergency shelters are designated as permitted uses within Planning Area 3 of the TLSP (see Table II -28). Planning Area 3 is a five (5) acre site that had been a no cost conveyance to the Orange County Rescue Mission for the development of an emergency/ transitional shelter that is known as Village of Hope. The City facilitated the development of the Orange County Rescue Mission Village of Hope and waived permits fees as this was a public/private partnership. The project originally consisted of 192 units and now has been expanded to 262 beds capacity is available for emergency housing needs. Transitional housing is defined as rental housing for stays of at least six (6) months where the units are re -circulated to another person after a set period. This housing can take several forms, including group housing or multi -family units, and often includes a supportive services component to allow individuals to gain necessary life skills in support of independent living. Tustin s Zoning Code accommodates transitional housing within several zoning districts depending on the project's physical structure: 1) transitional housing operated as a residential care facility is permitted/ conditionally permitted depending on the number of occupants in residential districts; and 2) transitional housing operated as rental apartments, it is permitted by right as a multi -family residential use where multifamily housing is permitted. 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. Emergency shelters are permitted within Planning Area 3 of the TLSP. Transitional homes and supportive housing are also designated as permitted uses within Planning Areas 1 and 3 of the TLSP. Community care facilities such as group homes, foster homes, elderly care facilities, etc. with six (6) or fewer people are outright permitted within any residentially zoned property.

CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -57 SEPTEMBER 2022 0 Six (6) units at Columbus Grove operated by Orange Coast Interfaith Shelter. • A 77 -bed temporary emergency shelter operated by Temporary Shelter Inc. With the exception of the emergency shelter, these units are transparent and dispersed throughout the community consistent with the City's goals and policies to provide adequate supply of housing to meet the need for a variety of housing types and the diverse socio-economic and to promote the dispersion and integration of housing for all socio-economic throughout the community. The City's policies for homeless accommodation do not create constraints in the location of adequate emergency shelters, transitional homes, shelters, and supportive housing. In addition, current provision of homeless accommodation supports not only the need of the City but the county as well. Shelters Capacity and Vacancy Rate The Village of Hope, a 262 -bed transitional housing facility operated by the Orange County Rescue Mission (OCRM) is expanding to include 125 additional beds. When completed, the facility will provide 387 beds. The facility and entitled new expansion are located at 1 Hope Drive in Tustin Legacy Neighborhood A. The Village of Hope is the City's largest shelter operation. Table I1-30 provides the vacancy rate reported by the Orange County Rescue Mission Village of Hope. Generally, the shelter has an average vacancy rate of 50% for homeless individuals consisting of single men, single women, single women with children, single men with children, and two parent families. The largest homeless sub -population on the Village of Hope campus is single women with children. The Orange County Rescue Mission Village of Hope priority is to serve Tustin homeless population prior to taking any other referrals from other cities or the County. The Orange County Rescue Mission Village of Hope also provides a food service program of approximately 550 meals daily to the Armory. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -58 SEPTEMBER 2022 On October 26, 2018, the City of Tustin entered into a Settlement Agreement in litigation entitled "Orange County Catholic Worker et al. vs. County of Orange, et al". As part of the Settlement Agreement, Tustin agrees to provide a minimum of 50 - bed, emergency homeless shelter facility that is ADA accessible and serves homeless men, women, and families from within Tustin only. The facility's primary focus is assisting program participants with creating a housing plan, making connections to housing resources and finding transitional and permanent housing as soon as possible. The Tustin Temporary Emergency Shelter (TTES) provides a total capacity of 77 beds. Generally, the shelter has an average vacancy rate of 47%. The shelter provides shelter for women, men, couples, and families. The shelter is located on a 1.5 -acre site at TLSP and consists of individualized sleeping areas, integrated healthcare, 24/7 intake and orientation, and 24-hour access to Orange County Behavioral Health staff. The expectation of the TTES operations is to provide a transitional emergency facility with the goal of transitioning persons experiencing homelessness into permanent housing as quickly as possible, with the understanding that each guest is unique and may require additional services in the transition into appropriate permanent housing.

Based on average monthly vacancy rates above, the City has capacity to accommodate unsheltered homeless persons year-round. In addition to existing vacancy, Village of Hope will provide additional capacity with the future expansion of 125 additional beds. In addition to the homeless accommodation, the City also encourages the provision of services to support the community of continuum of care model to end the cycle of homelessness and to provide participants with tools to once again become contributing members of the community as follows: • Private sector opportunities are provided to create a balanced mix of housing types on the base. In the past, through inclusionary Zoning standards in the TLSP, a total of 8,792 affordable units or 20.8 percent of total authorized units at TLSP are required to allow participants with opportunity to achieve self-sufficiency. Specific affordable housing requirements would be established at the time of development project approval to ensure conformity with the Housing Element of the City's General Plan and any provisions of California Community Redevelopment Law. Recently, with the provision of Surplus Land Act, new residential development projects are required to set aside twenty-five (25) percent of the total units for affordable housing. • Adult education and training opportunities will be provided by the South Orange County Community College District within the CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN 11-60 SEPTEMBER 2022 educational village at the Advanced Technology Education Park (ATEP) campus. The first building is complete and is operated by Irvine Valley College focused on engineering and robotics.

The operation of large family care home is subject to the submittal of an application and review by City staff. The applicant is also required to submit a list of property owners within a 100 -foot radius of the exterior property boundary of the proposed day care home, which is used by the City for public notification. Public hearings are not held unless it is requested by the applicant or a property owner within a 100 -foot radius. If no hearing is requested, the permit shall be granted if the large family day care home complies with the provisions of the Tustin City Code. A permit is not granted for a new large family day care home that would be established within 300 -feet of the exterior boundaries of any existing licensed large family day care home. 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. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -63 SEPTEMBER 2022 Fees Like cities throughout California, the City collects development fees to recover some of the capital costs of providing community services and the administrative cost associated with processing applications. New housing typically requires payment of the following fees: school fees, park fees, sewer and water connection, power, phone, cable tv and building permits, not all collected by the City. Various fees and assessments are charged by the City and other outside agencies (e.g., school districts, sewer district, transportation corridor, water district, etc.) to cover costs of processing permits and providing services and facilities, such as utilities, schools and infrastructure. These fees are necessary to pay for services rendered during the processing of the project, but can, however; add to housing costs. In addition, subdivisions and multi -family projects may incur the cost of preparing environmental documentation, traffic studies, soils reports, and filing fees for tentative and final maps. These are requirements of California law. Such fees are typically based on the rates of city employees (including overhead) and the number of hours spent processing the application or performing the associated work. The City's development fees, impact fee zones, and planning fees are provided in Table I1 -33a, II -33b, and Figure 1I-2. These fees are assessed based on the concept of cost recovery for services provided. Additionally, planning processing fees cover the cost of City resources in reviewing and assisting in processing of proposed ministerial and discretionary planning actions. Development impact fees are required to provide essential services and infrastructure to serve new residents. As shown in Tables 1I -32a and 1I 32b include park, school, transportation fees. These fees are pass-through fees required by the respective agencies. Impact fees are governed by State law to demonstrate a nexus between development and potential impacts. Planning and Permitting fees (Figure 11-2) are charged on an at -cost basis to cover staff services and administrative expenses for processing development applications. Based on a recent fee survey completed in 2021, the City's fees are comparable or lower than fees charged by surrounding jurisdictions located in Orange County. Applicable project fee costs are respective to overall development costs and anticipated costs of units. Generally, fees are less for developments that include fewer units and slightly greater for developments with many units, but fee cost per unit generally decreases as the number of units increase. An example of project development fees is provided below for the 137 -unit Red Hill Avenue mixed-use condominium project which included six (6) very -low income affordable residential units and 7,000 square feet of retail commercial space, which was entitled and approved in 2021. Total City fees for this project are just over CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -64 SEPTEMBER 2022 $408,000 equating to $2,981 per unit and representing a faction of a percentage of the total project development costs. City Fees (137 units mixed use project including six (6) affordable units) Processing fees: $ 52,000 Plan Check fees: $162,742 Permit fees: $193,741 Total Project Fees: $ 408,483 Fees per Unit: $ 2,981 As another example, for a 149 -unit housing development project (Levity at TLSP), the percentage of fees to total development cost would be small portion of the total project development costs. City Fees 218 housing units; breakdown: 117 detached homes, 129 triplex homes, and 154 stacked flats and townhomes - *approximated fees) Processing Fees* $ 20,500 Plan Check fees: $ 266,898 Permit Fees $ 865,497 Total Project fees: $1,152,986 Fees per Unit: $ 5,288 In summary, Tustin s development fees represent a small proportion of the overall valuation of residential development. The fees are lower than Orange County jurisdictions and have not served as a constraint to development. In addition, AB 641 helps to address the cash flow problems inherent in many affordable housing projects during the construction phase. For affordable housing developments in which at least 49 percent of the units are affordable to low or very low income households, the City will now allow deferral of local developer fees until certificate of occupancy. Excessive fees do contribute to the total cost of development and impact the final purchase or rental price, which could be considered a constraint to development, specifically affordable housing. However, the City has committed to waiving or modifying various fees or exactions normally required where such waiver will reduce the affordability gap associated with providing housing of the elderly and for very - low and low-income households (Program 1.18). Additionally, the City's Voluntary Workforce Housing Program collects in -lieu housing fees from developments subject to the City's affordable housing provisions. Monies in the program are expended exclusively to provide housing affordable to extremely low, very low, low, and moderate -income households. The City commits to partnering with affordable CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -65 SEPTEMBER 2022 housing developers and nonprofit groups to facilitate development of affordable housing in the city (Programs 1.1 and 3.4). Therefore, with programs in place, the City does not identify fees as a constraint to development. Improvements 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. In its review of projects, staff works with the applicant to identify cost-effective site planning which minimize site improvement costs. Both on-site improvements and off-site improvements required for new construction affect the cost of housing. On-site improvements typically include street frontage improvements including streets, curbs, gutters, and sidewalks. Underground utilities which add cost to housing include sewer lines, storm drains, water, power and telephone lines. Off-site improvements typically include drainage facilities, parks (or park -in -lieu fees), traffic improvements and water treatment plants and sewer treatment plants. While affecting the cost of housing, these improvements are necessary to ensure public health and safety. The cost of these required off-site improvements vary depending on the nature of development (i.e., vacant land, infill development). The City may also impose development fees on future housing developments in order to recover some of the cost of installing off-site improvements including upgrading the circulation system and other urban service systems to serve increased density. The developed portions of Tustin have the majority of necessary infrastructure, such as streets, electrical and water facilities already in place. The City has analyzed the Housing Element sites and determined that site improvements are not an impediment to their development. 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.

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. Depending on the magnitude and complexity of the development proposal, the time that elapses from application submittal to project approval may vary considerably. Factors that can affect the length of development review on a proposed project include the completeness of the development application and the responsiveness of developers to staff comments and requests for information. Approval times are substantially lengthened for projects that are not exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), require rezoning or general plan amendments, or encounter community opposition. The City recommends that applicants for all permits or reviews request a preapplication meeting with the respective department to confirm City requirements as they apply to the proposed project; review the City's review process, possible project alternatives or revisions; and identify information and materials the City will require with the application, and any necessary technical studies and information relating to the environmental review of the project. City Staff reviews all permit applications for completeness, and discretionary applications must then receive a recommendation through a staff report prior to a review by the appropriate authority. Various applications may also require public noticing and a public hearing. The following table summarizes types of housing permitted in each zone and type of review required.

The process to obtain residential building permits is outlined in Figure II -3, Residential Building Permit Process. Approximate application processing time can range from three (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. Length of Time between Application Approval and Building Permit Issuance New Housing Element law now also requires an examination of the length of time between receiving approval for a housing development and submittal of an application for building permits. The time between application approval and building permit issuance is influenced by a number of factors, none of which are directly impacted by the City. Factors that may impact the timing of building permit issuance include: completion of construction drawings and detailed site and landscape design; securing construction and permanent financing; real estate transaction schedules, and retention of a building contractor and subcontractors. As a smaller city, Tustin staff have the advantage of working closely with applicants through the review and approval process, thereby helping to expedite the issuance of building and zoning permits. Furthermore, the City's uses in-house and contracts staff for building plan check which allows for the close monitoring of projects which results in the expeditious review of project. The City has a long-time commitment to complete first plan check for development projects within ten (10) business days. In Tustin, approved housing projects are constructed in a reasonable time period, given the complexities that developers navigate that are outside of the City's control. Here are some recent example projects with the timing noted: In general, smaller, less complex projects are generally issued building permits within one year of project approval, whereas more complicated projects may take up to two years.

CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -76 SEPTEMBER 2022 Conditional Use Permit Process New residential projects not permitted by right require a conditional use permit (CUP) and may be approved if the following determinations are made by the Planning Commission: • whether or not the establishment, maintenance or operation of the use applied for will, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, morals, comfort and general welfare of the persons residing or working in the neighborhood of such proposed use, or • whether it will be injurious or detrimental to property and improvements in the neighborhood or the general welfare of the City. • If the Planning Commission finds that the aforementioned conditions will not result from the particular use applied for, it shall grant the Conditional Use Permit.

CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -77 SEPTEMBER 2022 The City will amend the Zoning Code to allow residential uses By Right. The average time to process a CUP is between three (3) and six (6) months. Figure II -4, Conditional Use Permit Process below provides a flowchart demonstrating the typical process to obtain a CUP. CUP processes are not considered a constraint to the development of units identified to meet the RHNA since housing sites in the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan, Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan and Red Hill Avenue Specific Plan allow residential development by right and would only be subject to Design Review and a concurrent consideration for a residential unit allocation from the residential unit bank (applicable to Redhill Avenue Specific Plan and Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan), both of which are subject to administrative level Community Development Director Review. Other housing sites will be rezoned within the one year of the Housing Element cycle to allow housing by right which are described in Programs 1.1 and 1.5.

Streamlined reviews for Subdivision Maps and Environmental Reviews All three Specific Plans have adopted and approved EIRs. Developers can rely upon the approved EIR when designing their projects. This allows developers to rely on the certainty of gaining approval of a project which is significant and important for CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -78 SEPTEMBER 2022 new projects. For the other identified housing sites, the city will be undertaking a comprehensive EIR analysis during the rezoning process which will streamline development process of the sites, since the environmental review would have been completed prior to development proposals submitted to the City. Following the rezoning, developers would be able to propose developments that comply with objective design standards and the environmental assumptions included in the Final EIR. This process significantly streamline and shorten the amount of time needed to complete development application. The City of Tustin Subdivision Code requires Planning Commission approval for Tentative Map. Subsequent Final Map can be approved administratively by the Community Development Director. Processing time for these projects may take approximately 6-8 months. The City concurrently processes entitlement application for a single project in order to save the applicant time and review costs. 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. In addition, 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. Objective Design Standards - Tustin Legacy, Red Hill and Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plans These Specific Plans contain objective design standards that serve to provide staff, builders, and design professionals, and other users with a concise document which clearly outlines the desired design elements for residential project so that the Design Review expectations are clear and the process runs smoothly, to avoid ambiguity. In addition, per Program 1.2a, the City will create objective design standards for other parts of the city that are outside of these Specific Plan areas. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -79 SEPTEMBER 2022 Priority Processing The City assigns priority to the plan review and permit issuance for low-income housing projects which eliminates the potential increase in financing costs caused by permit processing a delays Design Review Process In accordance with Section 9272 (Design Review) of the Tustin City Code, individual development projects are be subject to a design review process and it is an administrative review that is carried out by the Community Development Director and does not require a public hearing. This entire process is completed within the 30 - day review timeframe allotted by the Permit Streamlining Act. As part of the Design Review process, the Community Development Department has the following responsibilities: 1. To provide for the review of building design, site planning and site development in order to protect the increasing value, standards and importance of land and development in the City due to the urbanization of Orange County. 2. To retain and strengthen the unity and order of the visual community. 3. To ensure that new uses and structures enhance their sites and are harmonious with the highest standards of improvements in the surrounding area and total community. 4. To ensure the necessary linkages are provided between the development project and the Planning Area/ Neighborhood in which it is located. 5. The integrity of the Specific Plan and purpose and intent of each Neighborhood is maintained. The City of Tustin employs a streamlined, interdepartmental development review process known as the Design Review Committee in order to generate high-quality projects in a timely manner. We accomplish this by first encouraging applicants to discuss preliminary project concepts with City staff to identify potential concerns. The intent is to screen for major obstacles prior to submittal to avoid the applicant committing time and resources to construction documents that will need to be extensively modified. The Design Review process is in place for Tustin to ensure that incremental development complements the City's historic character and to ensure that new development enhances the quality of life for the community. However, the process may pose a constraint to development by requiring compliance with subjective design guidance which potentially adds additional review times which results in additional project costs. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -80 SEPTEMBER 2022 As part of Program 1.2, the City will amend the Tustin City Code 9272 (Design Review) to remove subjective design guidance will and adopt objective design standards to facilitate high-quality, streamlined residential development. These new objective design standards would serve to further increase certainty and reduce inefficiencies related to project's design review and approval. The following chart depicts the City's current administrative review process for design review: Figure II -5. - Streamlined Administrative Review Process Prel i mi nary Revi er: Formal Application (optional) submittal Project Project Denied Approved 1D -day Appeal Period Deasion to Deny NOT I IDedsion appealed.* Decision to Approve NOT appea[ed.

Other fee deferral could also be provided to affordable housing developers upon City Council approval. Residential Unit Allocation (Red Hill Avenue and Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plans) CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -81 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 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 entitlement application for the project is submitted, reviewed and approved by the City following required hearings before the Planning Commission and/or 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 IV). Another potential 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. Lot Consolidation The success of development on the opportunity sites that contain multiple parcels will be dependent upon consolidation of individual parcels into larger development sites. Within the last housing cycle, the City has had success in encouraging the assembly of property to spur development. Examples of recent projects with lot consolidation include: • Brookfield Development - 400 units approved and in construction; • Red Hill Avenue Specific Plan Area -137 units approved; and • Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan Area -140 units and construction completed. The City will create a Lot Consolidation Overlay (LCO) Program No. 1.19 (see Section IV). The intent of the LCO is to encourage the consolidation of lots by providing incentives such as: • Reduce development standards • Additional density bonus beyond the State's maximum ratio • Reduced application fees CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -82 SEPTEMBER 2022 • Priorities in the application process Lot consolidation incentives will be clearly defined in the Overlay to be adopted by the City by 2024. In order to further encourage the consolidation of individual parcels within the opportunity sites, the City will contact the property owners of each of these sites and discuss the City's goals for residential development and available regulatory and financial assistance. For property owners receptive to lot consolidation, the City will aid to facilitate the parcel merger process in a streamlined and timely manner. Housing opportunity Sites 17 and 18, those that have a single ownership, and/or may require lot consolidation could be facilitated by a lot line adjustment (LLA), a process which is detailed in the Tustin City Code 9322 and the administrative process further detailed in the City existing Subdivision Manual, which provide a step by step process in preparing and filing a Lot Line Adjustment request with the City. A LLA is an administrative review process, and any land taken form one parcel can be added to an adjacent parcel. No public hearing are required for a LLA request. The Administrative Authority for LLA applications is under the Community Development Director. The application process for a LLA is streamlined and is cost effective. A LLA can be approved if the following criteria are met: • The project site described in the proposal consists of legal parcels and no greater number of parcels will result from the lot line adjustment. • Any land taken form one parcel will be added to an adjacent parcel and no additional parcels will result from the lot line adjustment. • The parcels proposed by the lot line adjustment will comply with all applicable zoning and building regulations and City's General Plan. • The proposal is consistent with the General Plan. The rezoning process of sites suitable to meet RHNA will ensure that the proper zoning is in place to allow for housing units at these sites to meet RHNA. Therefore, this LLA process would be a streamlined process to adjust property lines in order create parcels of the adequate size to meet RHNA. The City already has a process in place to streamline LLA and therefore a program is not necessary at this time since a LLA is not a constraint to development but rather a tool. Cumulative 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. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -83 SEPTEMBER 2022 In addition, the City has adopted a variety of zoning tools that provide development options that promote the development of residential developments. As described in Table II -22 (Summary of Residential Zoning Regulations) along with the various Specific Plans and Planned Community Districts which allow for a variety of residential housing products. In 2018 the City adopted the Red Hill Avenue Specific Plan (RHASP) and Downtown Commercial Specific Plan (DCCSP), which will facilitate the development of mixed- use housing developments along Red Hill Avenue and in key segments within the City's downtown area. The Specific Plans encompasses two key areas where a significant portion of residential growth is expected to occur during the current Housing Element planning period. The development standards in the various zones have not been found to constrain housing development as projects have been able to maximize the number of units on site, while taking advantage of the maximum allowable heights. For example, in the DCSSP and RHASP, the reduced setback requirements are typical for higher -density housing development opportunities available in the region that provide minimal light and air for development and do not unreasonably constrain housing opportunities. In the DCCSP, residential developments opportunities where added in areas previously reserved for solely non-residential development. In the DCCSP, residential development are allowed in a vertical format with either, three (3) story, four (4) story, or five (5) stories, with no maximum floor area ratio. Another example is the Red Hill Specific Plan which encompassing approximately 36 acres of land area that has been up zoned to allow higher density residential developments in an area that previously did not allow residential development, with no define floor are ratio. In the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan (TLSP), the zone allows for a variety of housing types, and include medium and high densities allowing 60+ du/acre, with flexible development standards. Furthermore, a Voluntary Workforce Housing Incentive Ordinance was also adopted during this same timeframe and is applicable to both DCCSP and RHASP areas to encourage development of affordable housing. The Ordinance utilized affordable housing provisions included in the State Density Bonus Law. This would allow developer to be able to comply with both provisions while benefitting from relaxed development standards and obtain concession and/or incentives under State Density Bonus Law. At the time of this update, the first mixed use project along Red Hill Avenue within the RHASP has been approved for 137 housing units including five (5) percent Very - Low Income affordable units, as allowed by the City Voluntary Housing Ordinance, approved at a density of 40 du/ acre. This is the first housing development project to CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -84 SEPTEMBER 2022 comply with this Ordinance and includes the provision of 20 percent density bonus housing units. Furthermore, the project took advantage of a concession and incentive request, pursuant to State Density Bonus law for a reduction in open space, reduced parking ratios, and the waiver for park fees for the affordable units provided. The waiver of park fees is a development incentive option available by the City's Subdivision Ordinance and is subject to approval by the City Council which requires that the incentive be associated with the provision of affordable housing development. More recently, AB 1763 made a number of changes to density bonus requirements for affordable projects. The bill requires a density bonus to be granted for projects that include 100 percent lower income units but allows up to 20 percent of total units in a project that qualifies for a density bonus to be for moderate -income households. Under the revised law, density bonus projects must be allowed four incentives or concessions, and for developments within 1/2 mile of a major transit stop, a height increase of up to three additional stories or 33 feet. A density bonus of 80 percent is authorized for most projects, with no limitations on density placed on projects within 1/2 mile of a major transit stop. The bill also allows developers to request the elimination of minimum parking requirements for rental units affordable to lower- income families that are either supportive housing or special needs housing, as defined. AB 2345 signed by the Governor in September 2020 further incentivizes the production of affordable housing. Housing Program 1.3 commits to amending the zoning ordinance to ensure the affordable housing density bonus regulations conform to current state law. The City has not processed any zone changes since 2018. In 2018, two were processed for the establishment of the RHASP and DCCSP areas. Since adoption of either Specific Plan, the City has not received any requests for projects (within the entire City) below the City's allowable densities. There have not been any zone change applications processed for any housing developments between 2013 and present. Furthermore, the City does not currently allow short-term rental in the City that could directly impact the cost and supply of residential development. The City monitors closely its development standards and their impact on development. Periodically, the City made amendments to its Zoning Ordinance as part of code streamlining to ensure development standards respond to market trends and Program 1.5 has been included to continue to address necessary code changes to respond to and facilitate housing development and the changing housing market. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -85 SEPTEMBER 2022 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). The City has identified the following quantified objectives for the 6th planning cycle (2021-2029). TABLE II -36 QUANTIFIED OBJECTIVES Income New Construction Rehabilitation Conservation/ Preservation Very Low- 1,7241 32 Low- 1,046 13 377 Moderate- 1,132 12 9 Above Moderate- 2,880 Total 6,782 25 418 1 Pursuant to Government Code Section 65583(a)(1), City's share of extremely -low-income units is 862 (50 percent of the total Very -Low Income new construction objective). As described previously, the City anticipates preservation of several affordable housing projects that are at -risk of expiring during this planning period. Additionally, under Program 3.10, Housing Rehabilitation to Address Substandard Housing, the City commits to assisting in rehabilitation of five (5) low to moderate income housing units each year beginning in 2024. Appendix B, Housing Sites Inventory Assessment, with associated Attachments provides the focused analysis for the City's new construction to meet their Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA). 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 DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN II -86 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN III -1 SEPTEMBER 2022 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.

DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT IV -44 SEPTEMBER 2022 CITY OF TUSTIN GENERAL PLAN APPENDIX A REVIEW OF PAST PERFORMANCE A-1 HOUSING ELEMENT SEPTEMBER 2022 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 SEPTEMBER 2022 A-2 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 SEPTEMBER 2022 A-3 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 SEPTEMBER 2022 A-4 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 SEPTEMBER 2022 A-5 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 SEPTEMBER 2022 A-6 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 Browri s 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 SEPTEMBER 2022 A-7 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.

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. In 2002, 2009 and 2013, the City updated its Housing Element and was certified by the State's Housing and Community Development Department in compliance with State's Law. The time period covered in this analysis is generally 2013 - 2020, and, 2021, where information is available. REVIEW AND PROGRESS IN IMPLEMENTING THE 2013 GOALS AND OBJECTIVES Table A-1 summarizes the performance and presents a comparison of the quantified objectives of the previous 2013 Element and the actual achievements since 2013.

This discussion includes the following topics: • Housing Units Approved/Entitled/Pending and Permitted • Suitable Sites Identification and Assessment • Sites to Accommodate Low and Very Low Income RHNA 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 556 housing units that are captured from approved/ entitled, pending and permitted (projects under construction). A total of 6,226 additional housing units are therefore needed to achieve the total assigned RHNA of 6,782 housing units.

In addition, 12 ADUs have been approved and permitted for construction. Brookfield Development (Part of Site 1B) This is an entitled 400 -unit above -moderate -income development planned in the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan (TLSP) area within Neighborhood D South. The project is currently under construction. 13751 & 13841 Red Hill Avenue (Site 3) This is a mixed-use project with a total of 137 housing units (six [6] very -low-income and 131 above -moderate -income). The project was approved by City Council on August 17, 2021. Construction drawings have not yet been submitted into plan check to obtain building permits. This site currently contains no residential development and the City does not prescribe specific FARs for the RHASP area, but rather, bases development decisions on RAR and individual project review. The existing improvement -to -land value is estimated to be approximately 0.18 based on the latest County property tax information for fiscal year 2021-2022. Values less than 1 suggests the site is currently underutilized. House of Ruth - Transitional Housing Units This entitled project will consist of seven (7) transitional housing units at 1941 El Camino Real, on a 0.38 -acre vacant parcel, to serve extremely low income homeless families (2 to 7 persons per unit). It includes two (2) density bonus units. The project also incorporates non -site support services to avoid long-term homelessness. The project is currently in plan check and the project is anticipated to begin construction in 2022. AD Us/JAD Us - Other Housing Category There are currently twelve (12) accessory dwelling units (ADUs) that are permitted and under construction within the City. Suitable Sites Identification and Assessment The City analyzed and assessed a number of sites and areas throughout the community to accommodate the City's remaining RHNA. While many sites were considered, eighteen (18 sites and one housing category (ADUs/JADUs) have been identified for Tustin s qualifying sites to accommodate remaining RHNA. Attachment B-1, Sites Identification to meet RHNA, provides a detailed listing of the approved/ entitled sites and sites to accommodate remaining RHNA. Attachment B - 1A, provides a summary of the realistic capacity. Figure B-2, Site Identification to CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN B-3 SEPTEMBER 2022 Meet RHNA, provides a map of the site locations. Additionally, site aerials and individual site APN maps with summaries are provided for reference, organized by each of the three respective specific plans (Sites 1-16 - TLSP, DCCSP, RHASP), two additional sites (Sites 17 and 18), as well as a two "other' categories (Transitional Housing Units and ADUs/JDUs) in Attachment B-2. Attachment B-3, provides a summary of "Buffer" sites that would provide suitability for additional residential development to meet the City's RHNA in the event that identified sites become no longer feasible for development of affordable or market rate housing. Tustin Legacy Specific Plan (TLSP) Area The Tustin Legacy Specific Plan (SP -1) area contains two geographic areas, referred to as Neighborhoods in the TLSP, where residential housing sites will be concentrated for this planning period: Neighborhood D and Neighborhood G. The land is vacant and is owned and development is controlled by the City. The zoning for the site is Tustin Legacy Specific Plan area (SP -1) and the General Plan designation is TLSP. According to the existing Specific Plan, a total remaining capacity of 3,325 units exists throughout the Tustin Legacy area. Sites 1A and 1B are located in Neighborhood D. Neighborhood D has a total of 84.73 acres and is divided into two areas: South (44.86 acres) and North (39.87 acres). Site 2 is located in Neighborhood G which is in the northeastern portion of the TLSP site and includes approximately 50 acres. Sites within Tustin Legacy do not have a density prescribed to the planning area per the TLSP; however, there is a development cap on the number of housing units in each of the planning areas. The following elaborates on the development capacity for each Neighborhood and planning area. Site 1A - (TLSP) 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 555 additional housing units within this area to meet RHNA. The focused vacant land is 39.87 acres. It is currently situated within four parcels. The rezone is included in the City's Programs in Section IV. Neighborhood D North was not identified in either of the past two planning cycles as vacant land available for housing to meet RHNA. The housing units are expected to be constructed during the planning period. Site 1B - TLSP 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 and is currently in construction. The remainder of this area, 19.42 CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN B-4 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 1,296 housing units are currently allocated in Neighborhood D South to meet RHNA. The City is planning a rezone (Specific Plan Amendment - see Programs in Section IV) by October 2022, unless extended by law, to accommodate a minimum of 100 additional housing units within this area, to bring the total number of housing units to 1,396 housing units to meet RHNA. 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 rental housing that was developed over 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 2 - (TLSP) 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) by October 2022, unless extended by law, to accommodate a minimum of 200 additional housing units within this area, to bring the total number of housing units to 2,229 housing units to meet RHNA. The rezone is included in the City's Programs in Section IV. There are 13 contiguous parcels designated for residential development with one parcel at 10 acres and the rest at smaller acreages. 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. Red Hill Avenue Specific Plan (RHASP) Area The Red Hill Avenue Specific Plan (RHASP), SP -13, 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 - unit capacity, consisting of 137 housing units (114 base units and 23 bonus units) approved for construction (Site 3 located at 13751 & 13841 Red Hill Avenue) and 386 housing units remaining throughout the Specific Plan area. Remaining units in the RHASP include 258 housing units to the north of the freeway and 105 housing 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 CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN B-5 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 Plan's high density residential zones maximum density) as long as the total dwelling units allocated to the Specific Planning Area is not exceeded. Therefore, densities above 25 units per acre are achievable in the RHASP area. RHASP was accompanied by a Program Environmental Impact Report, approved and certified by the City Council, which affords future developers significant time and costs savings, yielding building of housing units in a more expedient manner. The Zoning is SP 13, known as the RHASP, and the General Plan designation is RHASP. The maximum allowable building height for residential mixed-use development in the RHASP is four (4) stories (50 feet). Four (4) sites within the RHASP area have been identified to meet RHNA: Site 4 - (RHASP) 13822 -13852 Red Hill Avenue (Red Hill Plaza) This non -vacant site consists of four parcels on 7.08 acres, all under one ownership. The current land use is a shopping center with commercial, retail and restaurants with a construction dating back to 1973 with over fifty percent of the land area developed with surface parking areas. The center has not undergone any major renovations and remains largely outdated. Recent development inquiries for this parcel have been received due to a recent change in ownership structure. Development interest discussions have involved the property owners and interested developers and the City. This site currently contains no residential development and the City does not prescribe specific FARs for the RHASP area, but rather, bases development decisions on RAR and individual project review. With the recently approved mixed-use project across the street from this site, revitalization of the area can be anticipated in the near future. A total of 226 units have been assigned to Site 4. The existing improvement -to -land value is estimated to be approximately 0.30 based on the latest County property tax information for fiscal year 2021-2022. Values less than 1 suggests the site is currently underutilized Site 5 - (RHASP) 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 an outdated restaurant use and the original construction date of building is 1973. The building has not undergone any recent renovations and at least fifty percent of the site is developed with surface parking areas. A total of 32 units have been assigned to Site 5. This site currently contains no residential development and the City does not prescribe specific FARs for the RHASP area, but rather, bases development CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN B-6 SEPTEMBER 2022 decisions on RAR and individual project review. The existing improvement -to -land value is estimated to be approximately 0.54 based on the latest County property tax information for fiscal year 2021-2022. Values less than 1 suggests the site is currently underutilized. Site 6 - (RHASP) 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 one active service station and the other remains vacant and inactive. The various buildings on the site have construction dates ranging between 1966-1973. The various building in Site 6 have not undergone any recent major renovations and remain largely outdated. A total of 105 units have been assigned to Site 6. This site currently contains no residential development and the City does not prescribe specific FARs for the RHASP area, but rather, bases development decisions on RAR and individual project review. The existing improvement -to -land value for the parcels that are developed is estimated to be approximately 1.10 based on the latest County property tax information for fiscal year 2021-2022. Values less than 1 suggests the site is currently underutilized. However, as previously stated, site improvements are outdated and the site is partially vacant, suggesting redevelopment potential. Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan (DCCSP) Area The Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan, SP -12, was adopted in 2018 and is centered around the intersection of Main Street and El Camino Real in Old Town Tustin. 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 housing units remain. The DCCSP also provides the unique RAR, which is approved either by the Community Development Director or the Planning Commission/ City Council, as applicable. The maximum density on an individual parcel may exceed 25 dwelling units per acre (the General Plan's High -Density- Residential zones maximum density) as long as the total dwelling units allocated to the Specific Plan area is not exceeded. Therefore, densities above 25 units per acre are achievable in the DCCSP area. This Specific Plan CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN B-7 SEPTEMBER 2022 was accompanied Program Environmental Impact Report approved and certified by the City Council, which affords future developers significant time and 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. 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 DCCSP area: Site 7 - (DCCSP) 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 (345 W. First St.). Combined, the two parcels are 1.1 acres. The DCCSP's Housing Allocation Bank's 45 units for this Development Area is assumed on this site. This site currently contains no residential development and the City does not prescribe specific FARs for the DCCSP area, but rather, bases development decisions on RAR and individual project review. The existing improvement -to -land value is estimated to be approximately 1.98 based on the latest County property tax information for fiscal year 2021-2022. Values less than 1 suggests the site is currently underutilized. However, site this site is partially undeveloped, with no building improvements and the other portion of the site contains a large parking lot area and considered underutilized, therefore, the site has potential for redevelopment. Sites 8 and 9 - (DCCSP)Development Area 2 The two (2) sites in Development Area 2 are non -vacant sites. Site 8 is non -vacant site (Bel Air Motor Hotel located at 140 W. First Street) and is 1.0 acre, on one parcel, under one ownership. Site 9 includes two parcels: A City -owned property located at 150 E. First Street and the adjacent restaurant building at 105 El Camino Real which is privately owned. The City owned property was once operated as Tustin War Memorial which contains a multi -war memorial with four plaques along the north wall of the building. The Tustin War Memorial building is currently vacant and is permanently closed. At one time, this building was shared with the Tustin War Memorial and The Learning Village Preschool, however, the school closed in 2018 as did the War Memorial and the site has since remained unoccupied. The commercial building at 105 El Camino CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN B-8 SEPTEMBER 2022 Real is an underutilized parcel with building that had not been improved since its construction in 1974 with over fifty percent of the site dedicated to surface parking lot. The two parcels combined are approximately 0.88 acre. This site currently contains no residential development and would achieve full residential buildout of the site (on the remaining parcel avoiding the existing memorial), since the City does not prescribe specific FARs for the DCCSP area, but rather, bases development decisions on RAR and individual project review. The existing improvement -to -land value is estimated to be approximately 0.36 on the developed portion of the site based on the latest County property tax information for fiscal year 2021-2022. Values less than 1 suggests the site is currently underutilized. The Housing Allocation Bank's 92 units for this Development Area are assumed between these two sites. Site 10 - (DCCSP)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 and its construction dates back to 1962. The center has not undergone any major remodels in the past and remains largely outdated. A major building tenant was a grocery store which vacated in the 2015-2016 timeframe and that tenant space has since remained 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 large size, could possibly be developed with additional units if a transfer of units from another Development Area was requested and approved. This site currently contains no residential development and the City does not prescribe specific FARs for the DCCSP area, but rather, bases development decisions on RAR and individual project review. The existing improvement -to -land value is estimated to be approximately 0.36 on the developed portion of the site based on the latest County property tax information for fiscal year 2021-2022. Values less than 1 suggests the site is currently underutilized. Sites 11, 12,13, and 14 - (DCCSP)Development Area 4 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 within these four sites which total approximately four (4) acres. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN B-9 SEPTEMBER 2022 Site 11 consists of six contiguous small vacant parcels totaling 1.02 acres. These six vacant parcels are held by one owner. The site is located at 225-255 El Camino Real and 250 Prospect Avenue. Site 12 consists of three contiguous vacant parcels totaling approximately 2.29 acres arranged in an L-shaped configuration. All three parcels are held by one owner. The site is located at the NEC of El Camino Real and Sixth Street (generally at 542 El Camino Real). Site 13 is a vacant 0.25 -acre parcel located at 125 W. Main Street located adjacent to developed land area. Site 14 is a vacant 0.44 -acre parcel located at 420 El Camino Real. The vacant site is L- shaped, wraps around a building and is adjacent to community serving uses which makes it ideal for infill development. Sites 15 and 16 - DCCSP Development Area 6 Site 15 is vacant and site 16 is non -vacant. All 260 units for this Development Area, identified in the Housing Allocation Bank, are assumed between these two sites. Site 15 consists of 2.73 acres on three parcels under one owner 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 at the southwest corner of El Camino Real and Sixth Street. The site is 7.81 acres and all three parcels that comprise this parcel are under one owner. 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. Since then, the property owner and the representative have actively engaged in consultation with the City staff on the project site design and layout responding to the pandemic new opportunities (outdoor dining and open space). This site currently contains no residential development and the City does not prescribe specific FARs for the DCCSP area, but rather, bases development decisions on RAR and individual project review. The existing improvement -to -land value is estimated to be approximately 5.10 on the developed portion of the site based on the latest County property tax information for fiscal year 2021-2022. Values less than 1 suggests the site is currently underutilized. This site's improvement -to -land value is high; however, as described, interest to redevelop the site indicates redevelopment potential. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN B-10 SEPTEMBER 2022 Enderle Center The non -vacant site 17 (Enderle Center) consists of approximately 11.6 acres, under the ownership of a single family. Of the site area, 7 acres have been identified suitable for housing development. Currently the site supports a commercial center, with redevelopment, the site is expected to accommodate 413 housing units. The City has been approached by several developers showing interests in redeveloping the shopping center with mixed-use development. Additional information regarding realistic capacity of the developed site is provided in the following section. This site currently contains no residential development and with a rezone would be allowed up to 413 housing units with no maximum FAR, similar to the DCCSP and RHASP areas. The existing improvement -to -land value is estimated to be approximately 2.5 based on the latest County property tax information for fiscal year 2021-2022. Values less than 1 suggests the site is currently underutilized. This site's improvement -to - land value is high; however, as described, interest to redevelop the site indicates redevelopment potential. The Market Place The non -vacant site 18 (The Market Place) consists of approximately 76 acres, under single ownership, the Irvine Company. Of the site area, approximately 18 acres have been identified suitable for housing development. Currently a commercial center, with redevelopment it is expected to accommodate 900 housing units. Additional information regarding realistic capacity of the developed site is provided in the following section. This site currently contains no residential development and with the rezone a total of 900 units would be allowed and no maximum FAR would be prescribed similar to the DCCSP and RHASP areas. The existing improvement -to - land value is estimated to be approximately 0.82 based on the latest County property tax information for fiscal year 2021-2022. Values less than 1 suggests the site is currently underutilized. 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, DCCSP, Enderle, and Market Place areas. It is estimated that between these areas, a total of 648 of the 1,724 very -low income units, and 404 of the 1,046 low-income units would be developed in these areas. That results in approximately 36 percent of very -low and 39 percent of low income housing units anticipated to be developed within non -vacant areas, which is lower than the stipulated 50 percent.

CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN B-15 SEPTEMBER 2022 Zoning Appropriate to Accommodate Very Low and Low Income RHNA Government Code Section 65583.2(c) requires, as part of the analysis of available sites, a local government to demonstrate the projected residential development capacity of the sites identified in the housing element can realistically be achieved. The following factors are considered when determining the realistic capacity of a site: • Land use controls; • Site improvements; • Typical densities of existing residential development; and • Current and planned utilities. Zoning Sites 1 through 16, identified 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 inhibit residential development. This is evidenced by existing residential development taking place within the master planned community and in the surrounding cities and described in Table B-4. Sites 17 and 18, Enderle Center and The Market Place, are currently zoned as Planned Community Commercial (PC COM) and Planned Community Mixed -Use (PCMU) - SP 8 (East Tustin Specific Plan), respectively. These zoning designations do not currently support residential development. Both sites would be rezoned under Program 1.1 to allow for high density residential/ mixed use development. There are no provisions that would deter accommodating very low- or low-income housing. Table B-3, Zoning / Size / Lot Consolidation Potential / Available Infrastructure, below, is a snapshot of sites appropriateness regarding these respective factors. Some housing sites are candidates for lot consolidation or splits to increase development potential of the site. The City's process for lot splits and lot consolidations are outlined in Section II of this Housing Element.

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 design by imposing limits on overall unit counts within the Specific Plan area, without specific density restrictions for individual sites. Sites 17 and 18 would be rezoned to include a residential overlay that would allow for high density residential/ mixed use development. 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 or more per acre which would be the case within identified housing sites. Therefore, these sites have appropriate density to accommodate lower income units. Development Trends/ Realistic Capacity Recent development trends in the City were used to aid in determining the realistic capacity of housing sites identified for future residential development in meeting the City's RHNA allocation. Recent development projects that include residential uses are included in Table B-4 CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN SEPTEMBER 2022 B-20 TABLE B-4 Realistic Capacity Development Trends Project (Year)/ Zone Units Area Density Description (ac.)

Higher -density residential development is now common in recent developments within one to two miles of the Specific Plan areas (see Table B-4). The following capacity assumptions were made based on recently proposed and approved development in Tustin and the surrounding area. The minimum densities exclude areas that may be used for infrastructure, ingress/egress, parking, commercial components when part of a mixed-use development (Refer to Attachment B -1A for net area calculations): • The TLSP area is anticipated to provide capacity of o 555 units over approximately 40 acres in Neighborhood D North (40 du/ac minimum); o 1,396 units over approximately 45 acres in Neighborhood D South (45 du/ac minimum); and CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN B-21 SEPTEMBER 2022 o 2,229 units over approximately 50 acres in Neighborhood G (50 du/ac minimum). Recent developments proposed and approved in the TLSP area show that densities have been between 32 and 62 dwelling units per acre. Further, CBRE Inc. was retained to market the Tustin Legacy Multifamily Mixed -Use Development Site, identified as a 19.4 -acre site with 1,208 -unit capacity (approximately 62.2 dwelling units per acre).' As mentioned previously, sites within TLSP do not have a density prescribed; rather, there is a unit development cap in each of the planning areas. The prescribed capacity would be within the proposed development cap, except for Neighborhood D North where residential was not previously planned. However, the TLSP would be amended to add 555 units to the TLSP Neighborhood D North. Development conditions would be comparable to the other TLSP area. Therefore, it would be reasonable to assume the TLSP area to be developed at comparable density (including the proposed 40-50 du/ac. densities) based on existing and proposed development trends in the TLSP area and vicinity. Mixed-use development is permitted and encouraged in Specific Plan areas. However, this is not anticipated to reduce residential development capacity for several reasons: o 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 TLSP alone) is planned for and accommodated. The TLSP has adequate sites to accommodate non-residential uses and there is no expectation that the demand for nonresidential uses will both utilize the available capacity and displace potential residential development. o 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 TLSP. The TLSP, 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 and updated regularly in support of an environmental impact report (EIR) (State Clearinghouse No. 1994071005) prepared in compliance with CEQA. The EIR determined the utility plan identified in the Specific Plan would be adequate 1 CBRE, Inc., 2021. Tustin Legacy Multifamily Mixed Use Development Opportunity. CITY OF TUSTIN GENERAL PLAN B-22 DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT SEPTEMBER 2022 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 TLSP, the Anton Legacy project is an example of a large site (7 acres) that was developed with significant affordable housing units. The project was constructed as a 225 -unit 100 percent 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 TLSP encompasses the former Marine Corps Air Station Tustin, which closed in 1999. Since that time, hazardous waste remediation has been occurring across the site by the BRAC (Base Realignment and Closure) Cleanup Team (BCT). A small portion within the southern part of Neighborhood D North is continuing to undergo remediation; however, proposed housing sites are outside of the remediation area. Therefore, the presence of continued remediation activities on the Tustin Legacy site will not impair the site's ability to support the number of anticipated residential units. 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 to the City are planned for development as part of a regional park and community college campus. • The RHASP area is anticipated to provide capacity of o 395 units over approximately 10 acres north of I-5 (40 du/ac) and o 105 units over approximately 6 acres south of I-5 (18 du/ac). A recent development in the RHASP was proposed and approved in 2021 at a density of approximately 41 dwelling units per acre. The project site is approximately 3.4 acres in size and was a result of lot consolidation of two parcels. Other developments in the surrounding area support similar densities as well on similar size lots. Additionally, the RHASP uses a RAR to allocate 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 proposed number of units within the RHASP would be within the remaining allotted capacity of the planning CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN B-23 SEPTEMBER 2022 area. Therefore, it would be reasonable to assume 18 to 40 dwelling units per acre based on existing and proposed development trends in the RHASP area and vicinity. • The DCCSP area is anticipated to provide capacity of 0 45 units over approximately 1 acre in DA1 (41 du/ac minimum); 0 92 units over approximately 2 acres in DA2 (48 du/ac minimum); 0 200 units over approximately 17 acres in DA3 (12 du/ac minimum); 0 150 units over approximately 4 acres in DA4 (38 du/ac minimum); and 0 260 units over approximately 11 acres in DA6 (27 du/ac minimum). 0 140 units entitled and constructed over 6.8 acres in DA6 (20.6 du/ac minimum). A total of 887 residential units have been allocated through the DCCSP within six Development Areas. The DCCSP is subject to voluntary inclusionary housing provisions (City's Voluntary Workforce Housing Incentive Program) that requires a developer of a residential project of twenty (20) or more units to provide affordable units on-site whenever a developer is requesting a residential bank allocation using the City's administrative residential allocation reservation process. For projects under 20 units, the developer may elect to pay an in -lieu fee or provide the units off-site. It is assumed that developments proposed in the DCCSP area would be over 20 units per acre. The DCCSP was recently adopted in 2018, and development patterns have not yet been established for the area. Similar to other specific plan area, the DCCSP operates on a RAR. The average of four Tustin projects identified in Table B-4 equals approximately 38 du/ ac. Therefore, it would be reasonable to anticipate a similar development density for DCCSP housing sites. Densities proposed under DA1 and DA2 include 41 and 48 du/ac. As shown in Table B-4, recent mixed-use projects in the City range between 16 to 62 du/ac. Therefore, the City's is taking a conservative approach in anticipating development to take place at 41 and 48 dwelling units per acre based on existing and proposed development trends in the DCCSP area and vicinity. • Enderle Center and Tustin Market Place CITY OF TUSTIN GENERAL PLAN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT SEPTEMBER 2022 The following provides further analysis of the two additional sites added to the sites inventory after receiving public input, requesting a reduction in the number of units in the TLSP area and requesting identification of sites in other parts of the City. C"'Onprnl The City included two sites located in commercial zones as suitable housing sites for rezoning to allow mixed-use development, which would introduce the opportunity to allow higher density housing in either horizontal or vertical mixed-use developments. The City incorporated these sites in recognition of several factors. First, in response to real estate market changes which places a new demand for commercial development to adapt to changes in retail land uses in particular with the increasing popularity of e-commerce. Second, to plan for lower-income, multi -family residential development to be located throughout the City, particularly in proximity to resources such as parks, schools, public amenities and services, and employment centers. Finally, the inclusion of these two non-residential commercial center as suitable sites for residential development aligns with community input received during the public outreach process, requesting that the City identify additional adequate sites outside of the TLSP area. Ultimately, the redistribution of units these two sites will further facilitate the equitable dispersion of housing units of various income levels throughout the City. The City identified: (1) The Enderle Center and (2) The Market Place in Tustin as adequate for housing development which will provide housing capacity with planned zoning and land use changes. These two sites have capacity for 413 housing units and 900 housing units, respectively, with a combined total capacity of 1,313 housing units. Each identified site is adjacent to developed land and based on documentation outlined within this element, each site has sufficient infrastructure and is accessible to support housing development. In selecting both of these sites, the anticipated development density is conservative and based on development trends in nearby communities (refer to Table B-4). Furthermore, the anticipated development does not rely on the demolition of any existing building but rather focuses on areas used for surface parking; and Program 1.2 provides that parking may be replaced with parking structures, as needed, to provide required parking. Finally, as part of the program, the city will develop parking standards that incentivize creative parking strategies such parking credits for transit rich development and allowance of parking structures and parking lifts, by right and subject to CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN B-25 SEPTEMBER 2022 Objective Design Standards (refer to Program 1.2). Environmental constraints are factored into the Sites Inventory; however, these two sites are not impacted by any environmental constraints. Redevelopment of the sites would be taking place on already developed land which contains asphalt parking lots. Retail - Changes in Consumer Preference The COVID-19 Pandemic accelerated the evolution of the retail commercial real estate market away from the large traditional brick -and -mortar footprints. According to a Retail Market Report produced by Costar (a leading commercial real estate analytics database) in February 2021, more retail square footage was vacated than occupied (i.e., the net absorption) in Orange County in 2020. More specifically, 858,000 more square feet of retail space was vacated vs. occupied and rent growth declined by 2.1 percent in 2020. This market data clearly indicates a lack of demand for retail space in the County and that there is an oversupply of space given demand. CoStar also shows that vacancy rates in the County have increased from a five-year low of about 3.5 percent in the middle of 2018 to over 4.5 percent in the middle of 2020. CoStar forecasts that vacancy rates will increase to over 5.0 percent by 2024. These market changes support the City's decision to include new non- residential sites for re -zoning during the planning period, to allow for higher - density housing in either vertical or horizontal mixed-use development. Housing Capacity Evaluation For the purposes of assessing realistic density for sites where current zoning does not allow for residential development for these two sites, the City reviewed and analyzed recent development in the City and nearby cities. Table B-4 summarizes recently approved or housing development projects in construction which demonstrates the viability for future housing developments at these two sites. Furthermore, the City has first-hand knowledge and experience that mixed- use developments continue to be viable opportunities for housing development. In late 2021, the City released a Multi -family mixed use offering seeking interest in the delivery of 1,208 residential units (906 market rate, 302 lower income) on 19 acres of city owned property which would develop at approximately 60-65 dwelling units per acre. The multifamily mixed use offering was advertised to all entities identified in subdivision (a) of Section 54222 of the Government Code and were invited to participate in the CITY OF TUSTIN GENERAL PLAN B-26 DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT SEPTEMBER 2022 competitive bid process (over 430 entities). The City received a high level of interest and received responses from numerous developers that met the terms of the offering, and the City is still finalizing our selection. The City utilized the surplus land exemption granted in Government Code section 54221 (f) (1) (F) (ii) of the SLA for a mixed-use development that is more than one acre in area, that includes not less than 300 housing units, and that restricts at least 25 percent of the residential units to lower-income households, as defined in Health and Safety Code Section 50079.5 as affordable housing pursuant to Section 102(a). While the process and required level of affordability under the SLA exemption creates many challenges for developers, the City is encouraged as many high-quality developers demonstrated that they are still interested, and submitted proposals to develop a high density multifamily mixed use project. Site 17 - (Enderle Center) The Enderle Center is anticipated to provide capacity of 413 units over approximately 7 acres (59 du/ac). During the preparation of the Housing Element Update, the City was in contact with the property owner representative. The property owner expressed their support of the re -zoning. Furthermore, the City has been approached by several developers showing interests in redeveloping the shopping center with mixed-use development. This demonstrate the viability of the site to be redeveloped within the planning period, if not, sooner towards the beginning of the new planning period. TABLE B-5 Enderle Center Existing Zone: Planning Community Commercial Proposed Zone: Allow mixed-use development with minimum 30/du acre (Refer to Program 1.1) Total Area: 11.62 Area Suitable for residential development: seven (7) acres (60 percent of the site) Proposed Housing Capacity: 413 units Proposed Density: 59 du/ac During Planning Period: Rezone properties to allow mixed-use, allowing residential development. The Enderle Center is located within the northern edge of Tustin, southwest of 17th Street and Enderle Center Drive. The Enderle Center is directly north CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN B-27 SEPTEMBER 2022 of residential development and has existing infrastructure that would be available to serve mixed-use development. Anticipated density is planned to be 59 dwelling units per acre. This density was determined by identifying the area as having capacity for 413 residential units based on an estimated seven (7) -acre site available for redevelopment. As shown in Table B-4, recent mixed-use projects in the City range between 16 to 65 du/ac. Therefore, the City's is taking a conservative approach in anticipating development to take place at 59 dwelling units per acre based on existing and proposed development trends in the region. The site does not currently support residential land use; however, the site has been identified as underutilized by the City based on other surrounding development trends and compatible for mixed-use development. Approximately seven (7) acres consist of underutilized buildings and expansive surface -level parking lots and are suitable for redevelopment to accommodate housing development. Program 1.1 would add an overlay zone to allow for residential development as part of a mixed-use development at up to 59 dwelling units per acre. Parking displaced as a result of redevelopment would be accommodated by vertical parking structures located within proposed development structures. With Program 1.2, parking structures would be permitted by right, making it easier to build parking structures to make up the loss for surface parking. Site 18 - The Market Place The Market Place Center is anticipated to provide capacity of 900 units over approximately 18 acres (50 du/ac). The Tustin Market Place is located north of Jamboree Road and El Comino Real near the intersection of I-5 and SR -261. The Market Place is a commercial shopping center which is under one ownership, The Irvine Company. The large site size and single ownership make this site advantageous for development, as consolidation would not be necessary. This retail center originally developed in the 1990s with big -box spaces and large parking fields that lacks the walkable, place -making attributes of today's successful retail centers. The existing layout of this retail center, which is adjacent to the 5 Freeway and close to employment, makes these properties underdeveloped. CITY OF TUSTIN GENERAL PLAN B-28 DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT SEPTEMBER 2022 TABLE B-5 The Market Place Existing Zone: PCMU - SP 8 (East Tustin Specific Plan) Proposed Zone: Allow mixed-use development with minimum 30/du acre (Refer to Program 1.1) Total Area: 76.93 acres Area Suitable for residential development: 18 acres (24 percent of the site) Proposed Housing Capacity: 900 units Proposed Density: 50 du/ac During Planning Period: Rezone properties to allow mixed-use, allowing residential development. The Tustin Market Place is directly south of residential development and has existing infrastructure that would be available to serve mixed-use development. The Irvine Market Place, a comparable development southeast of Bryan Avenue and Jamboree Road, is anticipated to support multi -family housing as well. The City of Irvine has identified a density of 50 dwelling units per acre for portion of sites located in the City of Irvine. The site does not currently support residential land use; however, the site has been identified as underutilized by the City based on other surrounding development trends and compatible for mixed-use development. As shown in Table B-4, recent mixed-use projects in the City range between 16 to 65 du/ac. Therefore, the City's is taking a conservative approach in anticipating development to take place at 50 dwelling units per acre based on existing and proposed development trends in the region. Zoning for this site would be amended to allow multi -family residential/ mixed use development and modified development standards appropriate for facilitating affordable housing. Program 1.1 would add an overlay zone to allow for residential development as part of a mixed-use development with a minimum density of 30 dwelling units per acre. Approximately 18 of the 76.93 acres consist of expansive surface -level parking lots that are mostly not occupied and are suitable for redevelopment at greater density. The anticipated development over 18 acres would take place on underutilized asphalt parking lot areas. Parking displaced as a result of redevelopment would be accommodated by vertical parking structures located within proposed development structures.

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 CITY OF TUSTIN GENERAL PLAN C-2 HOUSING ELEMENT SEPTEMBER 2022 Update and, secondly, an implementation tool associated with the Housing Element Update. 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 CITY OF TUSTIN GENERAL PLAN C-3 HOUSING ELEMENT SEPTEMBER 2022 costs for navigation centers and emergency shelters, and the new construction, rehabilitation, and preservation of permanent and transitional housing. • Preservation At -Risk Housing Rental Units/CDLAC 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 414 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 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds to continue its financial support of homeless assistance CITY OF TUSTIN GENERAL PLAN C-4 HOUSING ELEMENT SEPTEMBER 2022 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. Program to work with the Regional Center of Orange County to implement an outreach program that would inform the public of the services available to persons with developmental disabilities in Tustin. • 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 Coe Commercial 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 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. CITY OF TUSTIN GENERAL PLAN C-5 HOUSING ELEMENT SEPTEMBER 2022 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. CITY OF TUSTIN GENERAL PLAN C-6 HOUSING ELEMENT SEPTEMBER 2022 This page intentionally left blank. CITY OF TUSTIN GENERAL PLAN C-7 HOUSING ELEMENT SEPTEMBER 2022 APPENDIX D AFFIRMATIVELY FURTHERING FAIR HOUSING CITY OF TUSTIN GENERAL PLAN D-1 HOUSING ELEMENT SEPTEMBER 2022 APPENDIX D AFFIRMATIVELY FURTHERING FAIR HOUSING Executive Summary Existing federal law requires departments and agencies to administer programs relating to housing in a way that affirmatively furthers fair housing. 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 resources and opportunities. 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 AI 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 CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN D-2 SEPTEMBER 2022 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. The following table provides a summary of the results regarding each topic required to be analyzed as part of this AFH assessment. AFH Topic Area Summary Fair Housing Enforcement The Fair Housing Foundation provides fair housing services and Outreach Capacity for Tustin, along with various other cities in Orange and Los Angeles Counties. During the 2018-2019 Fiscal Year, the Fair Housing Foundation successfully assisted the City with combatting housing discrimination through managing twelve allegation cases and one discrimination case for Tustin residents. Monthly fair housing workshops that cover a variety of topics continue to be held for both residents and landlords. Cases are handled as presented in a timely fashion. Integration and Segregation • There were no areas of high segregation and poverty identified within the city. Highest resource areas are within the northern portion of the city and the lowest resource areas are to the south. • Minority populations are concentrated predominately within the central portion of the city. • Dissimilarity index scores identified high segregation between Black/White and Hispanic/White populations. Similarly, isolation index scores indicated high isolation of White and Hispanic populations. • City population has relatively low percentages of persons with disability. • Tustin has a slightly higher proportion of families with children (52.64 percent) than Orange County (47.84 percent). • The lowest percentages of low or moderate income (LMI) population are within the northern portion of the city and the highest percentages of LMI populations are to the south. 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.

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 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 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. 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. CITY OF TUSTIN GENERAL PLAN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT D-4 SEPTEMBER 2022 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. 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 TLSP 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 for Hispanic/White and Black/White populations (as defined by Dissimilarity Index values which indicate geographical segregation patterns) • Disproportionate housing problems for the city's Hispanic and Black residents (problems include 1) housing unit lacks complete kitchen facilities; 2) housing unit lacks complete plumbing facilities; 3) household is overcrowded; and 4) household is cost burdened); • Concentrated female -headed households and LMI population within Census tract 755.14; CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN D-5 SEPTEMBER 2022 • 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 County and all participating jurisdictions have a role to play in implementing those goals. In addition, the City of Tustin committed to individual goals and actions, 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. Additionally, goals and actions were included as programs in the Housing Element (Section IV) to address constraints that are not currently being adequately addressed within the City. 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. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN D-6 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 jurisdiction's planning process and guiding documents for community development. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN D-7 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 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: 0 524.19 (overlaps North Tustin) • 525.02 • 525.24 • 744.07 (overlaps Santa Ana) • 744.08 • 755.04 (overlaps Santa Ana) • 755.05 • 755.06 (overlaps Santa Ana) • 755.07 CITY OF TUSTIN GENERAL PLAN • 755.12 • 755.13 • 755.14 • 755.15 (overlaps a small portion of Santa Ana and a large portion of Irvine) • 756.06 (overlaps North Tustin) • 756.07 • 757.01 (overlaps North Tustin) DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT D-8 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 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. 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. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN D-9 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 • 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). 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. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN D-10 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 • 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. Table 4 indicates dissimilarity index scores, and Table 5 indicates isolation index scores.

The city did not include any areas categorized as high segregation and poverty (as defined by TCAC Opportunity scores). 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 (as defined by Dissimilarity Index values). 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. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN D-20 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 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 1-5 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. 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 Al, 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). Table 7: White Household Income and Percent Population (2019) Source: 2015-2019 American Community Survey 5 -Year Estimates The City of Tustin has a lower median income than Orange County, but overall percentage of the White population is almost identical. As shown in Figure 15, both income and White populations tend to be concentrated within the northern portion of the city. Although census tracts of high income and predominately White populations do not exactly overlap, there appears to be an area of lower income and non-White majority near census tract 755.14.

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."

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. 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 CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN D-40 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 C 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 compared to Black and Hispanic residents. In specific, Hispanics in Tustin have the highest CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN D-41 SEPTEMBER 2022 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. 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 problems 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. According to the 2020 Al, deteriorated and abandoned properties are not a significant contributing factor to fair housing issues in Orange County. 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. Irvine and Tustin contained the lowest number and second lowest percentage of vacancy relative to other nearby cities.

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 DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN D-58 SEPTEMBER 2022 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). 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. 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. The shelter services a large area including many portions of Orange and San Bernardino Counties. Sheepfold shelter provides shelter (45 beds), food, clothing, job training, and job -referral services primarily to battered women and children. Guests are admitted on a first-come, first-served basis. Additionally, the City supports a temporary housing shelter in the TLSP area, Tustin Temporary Emergency Shelter (TTES), operated by Temporary Shelter Inc.

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 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.

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.

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 CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN D-64 SEPTEMBER 2022 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. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN D-67 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 prior to the initial the housing element submittal in June 2021 to HCD; 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. Additional public meetings were held on August 17, 2021, September 7th and 30th, 2021 and October 5, 2021. At the August 17, 2021 meeting, City Council solicited public input and reviewed and approved the inclusion of additional housing sites, the Tustin Market Place and the Enderle Center that could potentially be developed with residential units. The redistribution of units throughout the City is intended to further facilitate the equitable dispersion of housing units of various income levels. Specifically, the revision reallocates units previously allocated to Tustin Legacy, by redistributing those units to the Tustin Market Place and the Enderle Center. In addition, during this meeting the units were further distributed within Tustin Legacy to additional neighborhoods to ensure that units are dispersed throughout the City. On September 7, 2021, City Council solicited public input, and reviewed and approved revisions that further CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN D-68 SEPTEMBER 2022 facilitate the equitable dispersion of housing units of various income levels throughout the City. Specifically, the revision redistributed 582 units (517 Preservation of At -risk units and 65 ADUs) to the Tustin Market Place and the Enderle Center, as noted above, to further distribute units throughout the City. On September 30, 2021, the Airport Land Use Commission held a public hearing and the Board determined that the Housing Element is consistent with the Airport - Environs Land Use Plan for John Wayne Airport (AELUP for JWA). Due to the Covid Pandemic, public gatherings and meetings were not permitted and therefore 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 have continuously been 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 CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN D-69 SEPTEMBER 2022 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. 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 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. The Capital Projects Funds are used to account for financial resources to be used for the acquisition or construction of major capital facilities. 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 $816,755 from HUD under the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program for the Program Year 2021-22. 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 2021-2022. The City lists its current projects and provides project status on the City website.

The strength of the color indicates the extent to which one group is dominant over the next most populous. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN D-71 SEPTEMBER 2022 Additionally, various City housing projects are currently under covenants per AB 987. Table II - 16 in Section Il of this Housing Element includes 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 has been extended for a new 20 -year period which would mean the contract would expire on July 31, 2041. 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. The City currently enacts Program 3.7, which allows the City to ensure tenants are properly noticed regarding at -risk units and to work with potential purchasers or property owners to provide technical assistance, where feasible, to public and nonprofit agencies interested in purchasing and/or managing units at risk. Additionally, the City has included Program 3.9, which commits the City to registering through HCD so it is aware of any units at -risk of conversion. Program 3.1 requires developers to process a conditional use permit, provide relocation assistance, and/or to provide incentives and assistance for purchase of the units by low- and moderate -income households whenever a project proposes to convert affordable apartments and condominiums. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN D-72 SEPTEMBER 2022 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. • Hispanic and Black 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. 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. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN D-73 SEPTEMBER 2022 Figures 20 and 21 detail the designations of vacant and non -vacant land identified to meet the RHNA in the City of Tustin. The sites inventory includes land that is currently zoned as specific plan, medium- and high-density residential, and land that can potentially be designated as high-density residential in the future. 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 (see Appendix B). 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 spread throughout various areas of Tustin, with a majority of the units being allocated in tracts 755.05, 755.07, 755.12, 755.13 and 755.15 (TLSP). 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, two underutilized sites with potential for mixed use, 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. Although the TLSP area has been identified as low resource, it has been substantially enhanced with new resources within recent years. Improvements include schools, parks, grocery stores and retail services, medical offices, childcare centers, County's Tustin Family campus including transitional homes for abused and neglected children and family, Head Start pre-school, social services, community resources, employment centers, transportation, and a variety of housing. With recent improvements, the TLSP surpasses other areas in the City for livability and well- rounded services for households with various income levels. RHASP and DCCSP are also part of specific plans adopted in 2018 that are anticipated to facilitate development and implementation of new high resource areas. Although the most up-to-date data sources were utilized, recent updates to the specific plan areas may not yet be fully captured and reflected within ratings and data sources utilized to prepare this analysis. 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 CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN D-74 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 (see Appendix B). 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 TLSP 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. 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, 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 TLSP 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 CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN D-75 SEPTEMBER 2022 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.

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 percent 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.

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). Housing units allocated to this area are predominately within tract 755.15 (TLSP). Other areas that were identified as low resource and contain housing sites are part of the DCCSP and RHASP areas (tracts 755.05, 755.12, and 755.13). 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. 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 have been allocated to tracts that 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. Tustin Legacy (Tract 744.15) is a Master Planned Community that is currently being developed. Although the area comprises 1,600 acres, there are 600 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: CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN D-82 SEPTEMBER 2022 • 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 Head Start preschool 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 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) Surrounding tracts in TLSP are anticipated follow similar development patterns. 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. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN D-83 SEPTEMBER 2022 Areas identified as low resource that include housing sites and are part of the DCCSP and RHASP areas (tracts 755.05, 755.12, and 755.13) are similar to TLSP such that the areas have been included as part of a City's specific plan and are identified for future improvements. These areas are mostly vacant and surrounded by existing development, opposed to TLSP, which is largely undeveloped. Specific plans were developed for these areas to expedite the (re)development of the sites and implement the City's vision for these areas as high -resource, successful, mixed-use areas. Table 25.

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. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN D-84 SEPTEMBER 2022 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 dor 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 for Hispanic/White and Black/White populations (as defined by Dissimilarity Index values which indicate geographical segregation patterns) • Disproportionate housing problems for the city's Hispanic and Black residents (problems include 1) housing unit lacks complete kitchen facilities; 2) housing unit lacks complete plumbing facilities; 3) household is overcrowded; and 4) household is cost burdened) • 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. 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 CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN D-85 SEPTEMBER 2022 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. 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. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN D-86 SEPTEMBER 2022 As identified in the 2020 Al, 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. 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. CITY OF TUSTIN DRAFT HOUSING ELEMENT GENERAL PLAN D-87 SEPTEMBER 2022 To facilitate these goals, several programs will be implemented over the planning period to ensure the City's goals are met. Several of the City's programs were modified in response to create measurable actions that will be monitored to progress is made towards AFH constraints identified as part of this analysis. The following table provides the programs that will be implemented over the planning period to address. Supporting programs would facilitate development of new affordable housing opportunities, provide housing and/or housing services for persons with protected characteristics, protect existing low-income housing from conversion to market rate housing, promote high-quality housing/housing rehabilitation throughout the City, and promote and educate the public/ landlords on fair housing practices. Through these actions, the City will be able to take meaningful action towards creating affordable housing opportunities in high resource areas, provide access to affordable housing for persons with protected characteristics, distribute access to opportunity outside of high resource areas, and provide education and enforcement to implement State law prohibiting discrimination.

Background The City of Tustin is preparing the 2021 — 2029 HOUSING ELEMENT UPDATE to evaluate current and future housing conditions, and identify housing sites and programs to meet the community's needs. While updating the housing element is a State requirement, it is also an opportunity to assess its accomplishments and progress toward meeting housing goals put forth in the previous Housing Element in 2013. The 2021- 2029 Housing Element will outline the goals, policies and programs needed to promote the development and preservation of safe, accessible, and diverse housing in the City. Goals and Objectives The GOAL of the COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT PLAN for the 2021 — 2029 Housing Element Update is to guide the City's community and stakeholder engagement efforts and to provide information about the importance in participating in the Housing Element Update. The OBJECTIVES of the Community Engagement Plan include: Building public awareness of the Housing Element Update, its requirements, and the City's vision and goals to adequately plan to meet housing needs to all of its residents; Educating the Tustin community on the requirements of the Housing Element Update, and progress since the previous Housing Element; Engaging community members and key stakeholder groups to provide input on potential policies and programs that will align with Tustin resident's housing needs; Facilitating discussions with community members and decision makers to identify how and where additional housing could be located within the City; and, Providing a concise document to the Tustin City Council and Planning Commission for adoption, with input and updates from public outreach and engagement activities during the Housing Element Update.
