Evidence, both written and oral, was presented to, and considered by, the City Council at this hearing. NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Newport Beach resolves as follows: Section 1: The City Council does hereby approve General Plan Amendment No. GP2021-005 adopting the 6t" Cycle Housing Element covering the period 2021-2029 which is attached hereto as Exhibit "A," and incorporated herein by reference. The City Council directs staff to transmit the adopted Housing Element to HCD for certification review. Section 2: The City Council finds that, since October 2019, the City has engaged in a robust discussion with the public regarding the Draft Housing Element including, holding 13 community workshops, 14 publicly noticed HEUAC meetings, one Planning Commission study session and six City Council study sessions where the Draft Housing Element was publicly reviewed and discussed. Section 3: In compliance with Government Code Section 65585(e), the City Council has considered the findings and recommendations set forth in HCD's letters dated October 12, 2021, and January 14, 2022, respectively, which determined, in part, that the Draft Housing Element required revision to substantially comply with State Housing Element Law. In accordance with Government Code Section 65585(f)(1), the Housing Element was revised to incorporate HCD's recommendations and comments as summarized in Exhibits "B" and "C", which are attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference in substantial compliance with the State Housing Element Law. Resolution No. 2022-14 Page 5 of 11 Section 4: The City Council finds that pursuant to Government Code Section 65583.2(g)(2), based on substantial evidence set forth in Section 4 (Housing Plan) and Appendix B (Sites Suitability Analysis) of the Housing Element, the existing uses identified to accommodate affordable housing are likely to be discontinued during the planning period, and therefore do not constitute an impediment to additional residential development during the period covered by the Housing Element. This finding is based, in part, upon the following, which sets forth the comprehensive review of all possible opportunities for additional residential development that can accommodate affordable housing during the planning period considered by the City including, but not limited to, work by the HEUAC, which was created by the City Council and was comprised of experts in housing development including affordable housing, general real estate development, construction, and law, and whose members credentials are set forth in Exhibit D. In reviewing these possible residential opportunities, the HEUAC used a set of guiding principles to determine if each of those areas and their individual traits support a likelihood for redevelopment, as noted below. A. Determination of Focus Areas: Based upon the parameters set forth in the State Housing Element Law, the criteria developed during the Newport Together outreach process, feedback from stakeholders, utilization of the Sag's GIS -Based HELPR Tool and further refinement by the HEUAC, the following focus areas were identified to accommodate the City's RHNA allocation: • Airport Area; • West Newport; • Dover -Westcliff; • Newport Center; • Coyote Canyon; and • Banning Ranch. B. HEUAC Methodology: Within each Focus Area, HEUAC subcommittees assigned each parcel within the Focus Area a feasibility rating ("Infeasible", "Potentially Feasible", or "Feasible") — analyzing the parcel's propensity for redevelopment during the planning period as follows: • "Feasible Sites" are those that appear that they could feasibly be redeveloped for housing or have housing added to the Parcel while the current use remains in whole or in part. Resolution No. 2022-14 Page 6 of 11 • "Potentially Feasible" sites are those that may work as housing, but due to the size and/or configuration of a Parcel, or the quality and functionality of existing improvements, a Parcel might be somewhat less likely to be a candidate for a housing use. Potentially Feasible sites may also include Parcels that would be infeasible standing alone, but if combined with adjacent the Parcel(s) could become part of a potential housing site. • "Infeasible Sites" are those that the Subcommittee determined would not work as housing due to existing improvements on the site; insufficient size; inefficiencies due to the configuration of the Parcel; whether active construction was recently completed, in progress, received land use entitlements and/or pending completion of land use entitlements; and/or fully leased commercial developments. All nonresidential sites that were deemed Feasible or Potentially Feasible were included in the Sites Inventory, except those sites whose owners expressly requested that their properties not be considered opportunity sites. Therefore, the City does not foresee the opportunity to potentially add additional sites to the Sites Inventory since all Feasible or Potentially Feasible sites have already been included. In conjunction with existing site uses and activities, each site was also evaluated considering factors such as: • Access to schools and jobs; • Access to parks, services, health care facilities and grocery stores; • Proximity to infrastructure and utilities; • Likelihood or redevelopment and reuse; • Project feasibility based on existing site conditions and development features; and • Funding/Financing and feasibility considerations. C. Infeasible Sites: Parcels with existing uses that were not likely to be discontinued during the 6t" Cycle Housing Element covering the 2021-2029 planning period were generally removed include the following: • Parcels in the Balboa Peninsula environs; • Parcels in Corona del Mar environs; • Parcels in Newport Coast environs; • Parcels with known historic resources; • Parcels that are under construction, or have recently completed projects, approved entitlements, or pending entitlements for commercial uses only; Resolution No. 2022-14 Page 7 of 11 • Parcels that have unique land uses that will preclude future residential development, such educational institutions, infrastructure facilities, federal and state facilities, entertainment venues, hospitals, cemeteries, parks and open space, and other similar facilities and activities; and • Parcels currently developed with affordable housing or special needs housing. D. Final Determination of Sites Inventory: Final determination of housing sites were established utilizing the following criteria. The site inventory is directly supported by evidence that existing uses will not impose an impediment to the development of residential, in whole or part, on existing non-residential sites during the 2021-2029 planning period. • Identification of sites with a Realistic Potential to Redevelop During the Planning Period — the Housing Element identified only sites that adhered to the criteria established at the beginning of the planning process. Supported by demonstrated features of recent development activity in the Focus Area and utilization of site selection criteria that provide sound analysis of site feasibility, the Housing Element identified only sites which can be realistically assumed to have the highest level of redevelopment potential during the 2021-2029 planning period. • Identification of Sites That Would be Physically Able to Accommodate Housing in Place of or in Addition to Existing Uses — The Housing Element identifies sites that would physically be able to accommodate housing. Therefore, all sites identified have been evaluated for their ability to feasibly accommodate housing units based on site features, existing development, and other site constraints. • Sites Identification Vetted during the Public Process — The sites identified in Appendix B of the Housing Element are based upon collaboration with stakeholders throughout the planning process to ensure local concerns were addressed, sensitive sites were properly evaluated, and preliminary sites were made available to the public for review and discussion. Those candidate sites that could not meet all criteria were removed from the sites inventory. • Site Inventory Feasibility Based on and Supported by Local Examples that Demonstrate Sites can be Developed at Proposed Densities and Affordability — The Housing Element bases project feasibility and capacity assumptions based on actual local projects constructed, under construction or in the entitlement process. The Housing Element compares actual development opportunities within each Focus Area to provide a realistic assessment of the opportunities and constraints of developing and proposed densities and affordability levels. The Housing Element sites inventory include sites that possess the ability to accommodate residential development. The local project examples Resolution No. 2022-14 Page 8 of 11 are provided in the discussion for each Focus Area in Appendix "B" of the Housing Element. E. Focus Area Sites: The candidate sites inventory was based on the evidence that the sites have low assessors value ratio ("AVR") (less than 0.5), are developed with low -scale buildings more than 40 years of age, are developed below current maximum FAR allowed, are in proximity to many other recent housing projects in the areas, and have been previously identified as high potential for redevelopment. • Airport Area - Airport Area Environs candidate sites provide substantial evidence that existing development is not an impediment to accommodating housing during the 2021-2029 planning period. As identified by the HEUAC, there are many parcels with underutilized surface parking lots and others with aged office buildings that are not fully leased. The development of higher -density residential units within this focus area can be expected to accommodate lower-income units. Increasing density within the Airport Area was also a key strategy as part of the City's 4th and 5th Cycle Housing Element Updates. As a result, high-density developments such as Phase 1A of the Uptown Newport Apartments have been made possible. This development achieved a density of 56 du/acre and provided about 91 units of Low and Very Low -Income housing in the City. The City received 39 interest letters from property owners in the area expressing a desire to pursue residential opportunities within the Airport Area. Additionally, the City has approved four residential projects with two additional residential projects pending within the Airport Area environs. Further evidence of residential development on existing non-residential sites is shown in Table B-9 of the 6t" Cycle Housing Element. • Newport Center - Newport Center candidate sites provide substantial evidence that existing development is not an impediment to accommodating housing during the 2021-2029 planning period. Second to the Airport Area, Newport Center has experienced substantial redevelopment in recent years and, thus, displays a likelihood of further redevelopment in the planning period. Most recently, the Villas Fashion Island project was completed resulting in 524 new apartment units, and the Residences at Newport Center along with the Vivante Senior Residential project have been approved. The recent construction of these units adjacent to major employment opportunities and supportive retail further support the likelihood, feasibility, and transition of non-residential uses to residential uses in the planning period. The City has received 20 interest letters from property owners in this area expressing a desire to pursue residential redevelopment opportunities. • West Newport Mesa - West Newport candidate sites provide substantial evidence that existing development is not an impediment to accommodating housing during the 2021-2029 planning period. The West Newport Mesa area has many older Resolution No. 2022-14 Page 9 of 11 industrial and small-scale office properties in addition to one of the City's largest employers, Hoag Hospital. As a result, West Newport Mesa is identified as a reinvestment and redevelopment opportunity, where older industrial, smaller -scale development can transition to support future residential development. Supportive evidence that existing uses do not impose and impediment on the development of housing include recent development trends in this focus area. These include the development of condominiums on previously non-residential uses, and development of mobile home spaces on sites with non-residential uses. The City has received six interest letters from property owners in this area expressing a desire to pursue residential redevelopment opportunities. • Dover -Westcliff — Dover -Westcliff candidate sites provide substantial evidence that existing development in not in impediment to accommodating housing during the 2021-2029 planning period. This area includes Dover -Westcliff, portions of Mariner's Mile and the northwestern portion of the Balboa Peninsula. While the Dover - Westcliff area is generally characterized by smaller coastal lots, the City has seen development in recent years with completion of the Lido Villas Project, approval of the West Coast Highway Mixed -Use project, and applications for Newport Village Mixed -Use and Via Lido Plaza Redevelopment. The City has received 12 interest letters from property owners in this area expressing a desire to pursue residential redevelopment opportunities. • Coyote Canyon - Coyote Canyon candidate sites provide substantial evidence that existing development is not an impediment to accommodating housing during the 2021-2029 planning period. The City received specific outreach for two parcels, both of which are reflected within the site inventory. Of primary note is the closed Coyote Canyon landfill and adjacent areas. The parcel is owned by the County of Orange who has entered into an agreement with Tait and Associates for the future development. Both Tait and the County have expressed interest in developing the site with affordable and market rate housing. Therefore, the City considers the expressed interest by both owner and developer as substantial evidence supporting the assumption that existing site conditions and activities are not an impediment of the accommodation of housing during the 2021-2029 planning period. F. Banning Ranch - The Draft Housing Element initially proposed approximately 1,475 units within Banning Ranch. However, based upon HCD's comment letters, the Housing Element no longer includes any units within Banning Ranch to meet the City's RHNA allocation, therefore, needs no further justification. Banning Ranch is simply being included in the opportunity sites inventory. Section 5: The recitals provided in this resolution are true and correct and are incorporated into the operative part of this resolution. Resolution No. 2022-14 Page 10 of 11 Section 6: If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, or phrase of this resolution is, for any reason, held to be invalid or unconstitutional, such decision shall not affect the validity or constitutionality of the remaining portions of this resolution. The City Council hereby declares that it would have passed this resolution, and each section, subsection, sentence, clause, or phrase hereof, irrespective of the fact that any one or more sections, subsections, sentences, clauses, or phrases be declared invalid or unconstitutional. Section 7: The adoption of this Housing Element is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Division 6, Chapter 3 ("CEQA Guidelines"), the common-sense exemption because it involves policies, programs, and actions to meet the City's RHNA allocation that would not cause a significant effect on the environment. Moreover, the Housing Element is statutorily exempt under Section 15262 of the CEQA Guidelines, which exempts projects involving feasibility or planning studies for future actions which the City has not approved or funded. Section 423 of the Charter and Council Policy A-18 require any amendment to the General Plan be reviewed to determine if a vote of the electorate would be required. If a project includes a general plan amendment, and, separately or cumulatively with other projects over a 10 -year span, exceeds more than 100 additional peak hour trips (a.m. or p.m.), adds 40,000 square feet or more of non-residential floor area or adds more than 100 dwelling units in a statistical area, a vote of the electorate is required. The Housing Element adds at least 100 dwelling units in several statistical areas; therefore, voter approval of amendments to the Land Use and other elements of the General Plan along with the Zoning Code will be required to implement the Housing Element. As a result, the Housing Element is a policy document and does not provide development entitlements to any specific land use projects, nor does it make any changes to the General Plan land use map or modify land use designations, densities, or land use intensities. Other similarly situated cities with voter - adopted growth initiatives have not been alleviated, either through State Legislation or judicial determination, of their obligations to comply with the voter initiative process. Given the nature and scope, the Housing Element programs and policies would not result in physical environmental impacts. Future housing development pursuant to the Housing Element would be subject to compliance with the established regulatory framework, including Federal, State, regional, and local regulations. To this end, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2022-2 creating the General Plan Update Steering Committee to effectuate the updates to the General Plan required by adoption of the Housing Element. Section 8: The City Council hereby authorizes staff to make non -substantive changes to the Housing Element as necessary to make it internally consistent or address additional comments from HCD as part of its 60 -day post adoption review. Should HCD require substantive changes to the Housing Element adopted herein, staff shall bring such changes back to City Council for review and action. Resolution No. 2022-14 Page 11 of 11 Section 9: This resolution shall take effect immediately upon its adoption by the City Council, and the City Clerk shall certify the vote adopting the resolution.

Section 1: Introduction (DRAFT JANUARY 2022 ) 1-1 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT The Housing Element of the Newport Beach General Plan identifies and analyzes the City's existing and projected housing needs and contains a detailed outline and work program of the City's goals, policies, quantified objectives, and programs for the preservation, improvement, and development of housing for a sustainable future. It is one of the seven mandatory elements to be included in a city's General Plan. The policy program identifies ways in which housing needs of current and future residents can be met. It also ensures that the City establishes policies, procedures and incentives in its land use planning and development activities to address the maintenance and expansion of the housing supply to adequately accommodate households currently living and expected to live in Newport Beach. The policies identified will help guide future City decision-making and establishes an implementation program to achieve the City's housing goals for the 2021-2029 period. 1. Background The Housing Element identifies and analyzes the City's existing and projected housing needs. The Housing Element contains a detailed outline and work program of the City's goals, policies, and quantified objectives for the preservation, improvement, and development of housing for a sustainable future. This includes timelines for the City to accomplish each identified action within the Housing Plan. 1. State Requirements California State Housing Element Law (California Government Code Article 10.6) establishes the requirements for the Housing Element. California Government Code Section 65588 requires that local governments review and revise the Housing Element of their comprehensive General Plans not less than once every eight years. The California Legislature has determined that a primary housing goal for the State is ensuring every resident has a decent home and suitable living environment. Section 655880 of the California Government Code states: a. The availability of housing is of vital statewide importance, and the early attainment of decent housing and a suitable living environment for every Californian, including farmworkers, is a priority of the highest order. b. The early attainment of this goal requires cooperative participation of government and the private sector in an effort to expand housing opportunities and accommodate the housing needs of Californians in all economic levels. c. The provisions of housing, affordable to low- and moderate -income households, requires the cooperation of all levels of the government. d. Local and State governments have a responsibility to use the powers vested in them to facilitate the improvement and development of housing to make adequate provision for housing needs of Section 1: Introduction (DRAFT JANUARY 2022 ) 1-2 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT all economic segments of the community. The Legislature recognizes that in carrying out this responsibility, each local government also has the responsibility to consider economic, environmental, and fiscal factors and community goals set forth in the general plan and to cooperate with other local governments and the state in addressing regional housing needs. Table 1-1 summarizes State requirements for Housing Element and identifies the applicable sections in the 2021-2029 Housing Element where these requirements are addressed.

Section 1: Introduction (DRAFT JANUARY 2022 ) 1-3 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT The City's Housing Element was last updated in September 2013 for the 5t" cycle from years 2014 to 2021, as part of the new update cycle for jurisdictions within the SCAG (Southern California Association of Governments) region to allow for synchronization with the Regional Transportation Plan and Sustainable Communities Strategy (RTP/SCS). The Element sets forth an 8 -year strategy to address the City's identified housing needs, including implementing specific programs and activities. Amendments have been made to Housing Element law since the adoption of the City's 5t" Cycle Housing Element; such amendments and subsequent housing laws change the required analysis, reporting and policies contained in the Housing Element. The contents of this updated Housing Element comply with these amendments to state housing law and all other federal, state and local requirements. 3. Regional Housing Needs Assessment Section 65583 of the Government Code sets forth the specific content requirements of a jurisdiction's housing element. Included in these requirements are obligations on the part of local jurisdictions to provide their "fair share" of regional housing needs. Local governments and Councils of Governments (COGs) are required to determine existing and future housing need and the allocation of this need must be approved by the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). Newport Beach is a member agency of the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG). SCAG is responsible for preparing the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) for all jurisdictions within the SCAG region. HCD established the planning period for the current Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) from October 15, 2021 to October 15, 2029. For the 2021-2029 planning period the City was allocated a total of 4,845 units, including 1,456 for very low-income, 930 for low-income, 1,050 for moderate -income, and 1,409 for above -moderate income households. 4. Relationship to Other Community Plan Elements The Housing Element is one element of the City of Newport Beach General Plan. The goals, policies, actions, and programs within the Housing Element relate directly to, and are consistent with, all other elements in the Newport Beach General Plan. The City's Housing Element identifies programs and resources required for the preservation, improvement, and development of housing to meet the existing and projected needs of its population.

Relationship to Other Community Plan Elements The Housing Element is one element of the City of Newport Beach General Plan. The goals, policies, actions, and programs within the Housing Element relate directly to, and are consistent with, all other elements in the Newport Beach General Plan. The City's Housing Element identifies programs and resources required for the preservation, improvement, and development of housing to meet the existing and projected needs of its population. Section 1: Introduction (DRAFT JANUARY 2022 ) 1-4 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT The Housing Element works in tandem with development policies contained in the Land Use Element, most recently amended in 2013. The Land Use Element establishes the location, type, intensity and distribution of land uses throughout the City, and defines the land use build -out potential. By designating residential development, the Land Use Element places an upper limit on the densities and types of housing units constructed in the City. The Land Use Element also identifies lands designated for a range of other uses, including employment creating uses, open space, and public uses. The presence and potential for jobs affect the current and future demand for housing at the various income levels in the City. The Circulation Element of the General Plan also affects the implementation of the Housing Element. The Circulation Element establishes policies for a balanced circulation system in the City. Consequently, the Housing Element must include policies and incentives that consider the types of infrastructure essential for residential housing units in addition to mitigating the effects of growth in the City. The Housing Element has been reviewed for consistency with the City's other General Plan components, and the policies and programs in this Element are consistent with the policy direction contained in other parts of the General Plan. As portions of the General Plan are amended in the future, the Housing Element will be reviewed to ensure that internal consistency is maintained. 5. Public and Stakeholder Participation Section 65583 of the Government Code states that, "The local government shall make diligent effort to achieve public participation of all economic segments of the community in the development of the housing element, and the program shall describe this effort." Meaningful community participation is also required in connection with the City's Assessment of Fair Housing (AFH). A discussion of citizen participation is provided below. As part of the 6t" Cycle Housing Element Update process, the City of Newport Beach conducted extensive public outreach activities beginning in 2019. Outreach for the 6th Cycle Housing Element to the community, includes the following actions: • Community Workshop #1 (October 20, 2020) — Provided an overview of the Housing Element Update process, community and housing characteristics, and engagement activities. • Community Workshops #2 and #3 (November 16 and 17, 2020) — Engaged participants in a suitability analysis for housing types and densities for focus areas in Newport Beach. Community Workshop #4 (February 24, 2021) — Discussion of opportunity sites and policy strategies. • Community Workshop #5 (March 22, 2021) — Presented the initial draft of the Housing Element. • Community Workshop #6 (June 21, 2021) — Presented a revised draft of the Housing Element's sites analysis and discussed inclusionary housing, housing overlays, and accessory dwelling units. • Online Community Survey — Participants considered potential policies and programs to include in the Housing Element, as well as potential housing types and opportunities for housing. The Section 1: Introduction (DRAFT JANUARY 2022 ) 1-5 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT survey also solicited feedback regarding potential barriers to housing access and constraints to the development of housing. • Planning Commission Study Session - Provided a presentation with an overview of the Public Review Draft Housing Element and Housing Element update process to date. Community members had the opportunity to give public comments. • City Council Study Sessions - Provided an overview of the Public Review Draft Housing Element and Housing Element update process to date.

The original source documents contain the assumptions and methods used to compile the data. 7. Housing Element Organization This Housing Element represents the City's policy program for the 2021-2029 6t" Cycle Planning Period. The Housing Element is comprised of the following Chapters: Section 1: Introduction contains a summary of the content, organization and statutory considerations of the Housing Element; Section 2: Community Profile contains an analysis of the City's population, household and employment base, and the characteristics of the housing stock; Section 3: Housing Constraints and Resources examines governmental and non-governmental constraints on production, maintenance, and affordability of housing and provides a summary of housing resources, including sites identification and funding and financial considerations; and Section 4: Housing Plan addresses the City's identified housing needs, including housing goals, policies and programs. Appendices provides various appendices with supplementary background resources including: • Appendix A — Review of Past Performance of 5t" Cycle Programs • Appendix B — Summary of Adequate Sites Analysis • Appendix C — Summary of Community Outreach • Appendix D — Accessory Dwelling Unit Analysis Section 1: Introduction (DRAFT JANUARY 2022 ) 1-7 Section 2.0 COMMUNITY PROFILE City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT The Community Profile for the City of Newport Beach provides an overview of the City's housing and population conditions. The community profile serves as the foundation for the Housing Elements policies by describing and assessing the factors and characteristics that contribute to the supply and demand for housing in Newport Beach. Specifically, the community profile describes the community's population, employment, economics, and household characteristics. Special Needs groups and housing stock characteristics are also described. The community profile develops context for the goals, programs, and policies, established in the Housing Element. The data used for this community profile has been collected using the most current available data from the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG), 2010 U.S. Census, 2010-2018 American Community Survey, the California Department of Finance, the California Employment Development Department, the California Department of Education and other currently available real estate market data. Data has also been collected from the SCAG Local Housing report for Newport Beach, which provides facts and Figures pre -certified by the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) for use in the 6th Cycle Housing Elements. Population characteristics affect current and future housing demands in a community. Population growth, age compositions and race/ethnicity influence the type and extent of housing needed and the ability of the local population to afford housing costs. The following section describes and analyzes the various population characteristics and local trends in Newport Beach. Population Growth Table 2-1 below displays the forecasted population growth for Newport Beach, as it compares to the County and other surrounding jurisdictions/cities. The U.S. Census reported a population of 85,186 individuals for the City in 2010. This is the second smallest population for this area after Laguna Beach, which has a population of 22,723. The 2010 population of Newport Beach represents about 3 percent of the Orange County total population. The Southern California Association of Government (SCAG) Final Growth Reports calculates estimates for future population counts and economic and housing trends through 2045. The SCAG data shown in Table 2-1 estimates a population growth for Newport Beach of 7,100 individuals, or an 8.4 -percent increase, between 2016 and 2045. The growth calculation is consistent with that expected in Costa Mesa and is double that of Huntington Beach. In comparison, the City of Irvine anticipates a population surge of about 25 percent through 2045. Between 2016 and 2045, Newport Beach population is forecasted to grow by about 2 percent less than Orange County.

Sources: SCAG 2020 Connect SoCal Demographics and Growth Forecast. 4ge Characteristic The age composition of a community affects housing needs because housing demand within the market is often determined by the preferences of certain age groups. For example, young adults generally favor apartments, low to moderate -cost condominiums, and smaller or more affordable single -unit homes because they tend to live on smaller incomes and have smaller households. As population moves through different stages of life, housing is required to accommodate new or adjusted needs. To produce a well- balanced and healthy community, a community must provide appropriate housing to accommodate needs of all ages.

In 2018, 30.2 percent of the population was between the ages of 45 and 64. Children under 5 years of age make up about 4 percent of the population, and 18.5 percent are 19 years or younger. Adults in the 35 to 44 age group have the second lowest population representation at 10.7 percent. Section 2: Community Profile (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) 2-2 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING E" t=MENT From 2010 to 2018, Newport Beach shows an aging population trend. All age groups under 45 years have consistently been decreasing. The 20 to 34 age group has experienced the greatest population loss at 3 percent between 2010 to 2018. In comparison, seniors over 65 years have increased by 4.4 percent during the same time. The middle-aged and senior populations both make up the largest age groups and can be expected to continue increasing given the decreasing distribution of young adults and children. Table 2-2 compares the age distribution of Newport Beach to the rest of the county and surrounding cities. The City has a below-average age distribution for those ages 44 and under as compared to Orange County. The City of Laguna Beach and Newport Beach both exceed 22 percent of senior populations, while the surrounding cities and county range from 9 to 16 percent. All municipalities in Table 2-2 have lower distributions of individuals ages 15 to 17 and higher distributions of individuals 45 to 64 years of age.

Race/Ethnicity Characteristics Racial and ethnic composition contribute to housing needs due to varying household characteristics, income levels, and cultural backgrounds which may affect their housing needs, housing choice and housing types. Cultural influences may reflect preference for a specific type of housing. As summarized in Figure 2-2, Newport Beach is comprised mainly of White individuals at 85.3 percent of the population in 2018. American Indian/Alaska Natives and Native Hawaiian/other Pacific Islanders comprise the lowest percentage; both populations in Newport Beach and Orange County add up to less than 1 percent of the population. The White population in Newport Beach is 23.6 percent greater than the county and the Hispanic or Latino population is 25.1 percent less than that of the county. The Black population represents 0.8 percent of the Newport Beach population, which is half that of Orange County. The Asian population of Newport Beach is 11.8 percent smaller than that of Orange County and there are 9.6 percent less individuals in the City who identify as some other race than in the County.

The population who reported White experienced the greatest population loss between 2010 and 2015 (4 percent), but then increased byjust under a percent point between 2015 and 2018. The City's population who identifies as Hispanic or Latino increased by a total of 1.6 percent; this was the greatest population increase between these three survey years. Overall, majority of the different racial and ethnic populations within Newport Beach remained stable in population from 2010 to 2018. Table 2-4: Changes in Racial and Ethnic Composition, 2010-2018 Reporting and analyzing economic characteristics of a community provides valuable information on the community's abilityto access the housing market. Incomes associated with different types of employment and the number of workers in a household affect housing affordability and choice. Therefore, to consider a healthy balance between jobs and housing, the employment characteristics of a community must be considered.

Section 2: Community Profile (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) 2-5 City of Newport Beach 2021-"^"Q HOUSING E" EMENT Table 2-5 shows that Newport Beach is estimated to experience an employment growth of 1.8 percent between 2016 to 2045. The total employment growth in the City is significantly less in percentage than the forecast for the surrounding cities. City of Irvine is estimated to experience a 24.5 percent increase through 2045, which is about 10 percent more than the percentage projected for the whole county. While Newport Beach is projected to experience the least employment growth as a percent, the growth represents an increase in 1,500 new employees; this is a greater numeric change than Laguna Beach. The number of new employees projected for Newport Beach represent 0.5 percent of employment growth for the county.

Based on data from the United States Census Bureau American Community Survey (ACS) 5 -Year Estimates, the number of employed people in Newport Beach reached 43,892 in 2018. This value is less than the amount projected by the SCAG RTP/SCS. A contributing factor for this may be the increasing amount of the population over the retirement age, as shown in Figure 2-1. Table 2-6 identifies employment sectors in Newport Beach and the changes in employment for each sector between 2010 and 2018. Most employed people in the City work in professional, scientific, management, and administrative services (19.4 percent). The sector with the least amount of residents employed was agriculture, forestry, fishing and hunting, and mining, with only 0.2 percent in 2018. Two other popular sectors in the City in 2018 were finance and insurance, and real estate and rental leasing at 18.7 percent as well as education services, health care, and social assistance at 17.1 percent. None of the employment sectors in Newport Beach have experienced changes in employment greater than 1 percent between the two survey years. This has resulted in a decrease of 0.5 percent in total employment, rather than an increase as forecasted in Table 2-5. Section 2: Community Profile (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) 2-6 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Table 2-6: Emolovment in Newport Beach by Sector. 2018 Table 2-6 shows that employment decreased slightly from 2010 to 2018 despite a projected growth and estimated employment amount much larger than that reached. Nonetheless, unemployment rates displayed in Table 2-7 show a drop by 1 percent during the same period.

Based on the data in Table 2-7, approximately 2,492 Newport Beach residents were without work in 2018 and would therefore be more likely to require more affordable housing options. For those that are employed, income level further identifies housing types that may need to be provided within the City. According to the SCAG Draft Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) Methodology, housing needs by income are broken down into four income levels: • Very Low -Income (50 percent or less of the county's median family income) • Low -Income (50-80 percent of the county median family income) • Moderate -Income (80-120 percent of the county median family income) • Above Moderate -Income (120 and above of the county median family income) Orange County's median family income is $85,398 according to the 2018 ACS estimates. The occupations that fall below 50 percent of this amount are Protective Services; Sales; Office and Administration Support; Production; Transportation and Material Moving; Healthcare Support; Building, Grounds Cleaning, and Maintenance; Personal Care and Service; Farming, Fishing and Forestry; and Food Preparation and Serving Related. Most occupations in Orange County have an average income that is either low or very low.

A household includes all persons who occupy a housing unit, as defined by the Census. This may include single persons living alone, families related through marriage, blood or adoption, domestic partnerships and unrelated individuals living together. Nursing facilities, residential care facilities, dormitories, and other group living, as well as the persons living with them are not considered a housing unit. Income and affordability are best measured at the household level, as well as the special needs of certain groups, such as large families, single parent households, or low and extremely low-income households. For example, if a city has a prominent aging population who are homeowners but live on fixed incomes, it may consider implementing a home beautification assistance program. _ Household TUr^ and SizE Newport Beach contains 37,870 total households, which is the second smallest household amount behind Laguna Beach with 10,542 total households. Female households with no spouse present represent the lowest amount at 4.9 percent and is 6.9 percent below the regional percentage. Orange County has 28.2 percent non -family households, but all cities in this area, including Newport Beach, have percentages that exceed 33 percent. Newport Beach non -family households account for the second largest percentage at 42.5 percent. When combined with senior households over the age of 65 and living alone, as shown in Figure 2-3, it amounts to 56 percent of households in the City. These two groups of people tend to occupy apartments or smaller age centric living areas and would also be considered in determining housing needs.

Household Income Household income is an indicator of housing needs in a community because household income is directly connected to affordability. As household income increases, it is more likely that the household can afford market rate housing units, larger units and/or pursue ownership opportunities. However, as household income decreases, households tend to pay a disproportionate amount of their income for housing. This may influence increased incidences of overcrowding and substandard living conditions. The California State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) has identified the following income categories based on the Area Median Family Income (AMFI) of Orange County: • Extremely Low-income: households earning up to 30 percent of the AMFI • Very Low-income: households earning between 31 and 50 percent of the AMFI • Low-income: households earning between 51 percent and 80 percent of the AMFI • Moderate -income: households earning between 81 percent and 120 percent of the AMFI • Above Moderate -income: households earning over 120 percent of the AMFI Section 2: Community Profile (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) 2-11 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Combined, the extremely low, very low, and low-income groups are referred to as lower-income.' Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS) estimates based on 2006-2017 American Community Survey (ACS) data is used below. Table 2-12 shows a greater percentage of homeowners (57 percent) than renters (43 percent) in Newport Beach. Just under 70 percent of households are estimated to have a moderate or above income and 21.6 percent earn a lower-income. A greater number of renters are estimated to earn a lower-income than of homeowners. About 60 percent of households in the extremely low-income category identified as renters, as for very low- and low-income households. Homeownership was more likely for households in the moderate or above moderate -income groups.

The ACS 2018 data shown in Figure 2-4 below depicts median household income for Newport Beach, surrounding jurisdictions, and the County of Orange. The figure shows a much higher median household income in the City that exceeds the regional median by $37,311 annually. At $122,709, Newport Beach has the highest median household income than any of the neighboring cities. Laguna Beach is in close second with an annual median household income of $121,474. Costa Mesa is the only nearby city with a median household income below the regional median and $43,502 below Newport Beach. Table 2-13 also compares median household incomes by percent points above or below the regional amount. All cities around Newport Beach, except for Costa Mesa, exceed the Orange County median household income of $85,398. Federal housing and community development programs typically assist households with incomes up to 80 percent of the AMFI and use different terminology. For example, the Federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program refers households with incomes between 51 and 80 percent AMFI as moderate income (compared to low-income based on State definition).

The Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS) developed by the Census Bureau for the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) provides detailed information on housing needs by income level for different types of households in Newport Beach. The most recent available CHAS data for the City was published in August 2020 and was based on 2006-2017 ACS data. Housing problems considered by CHAS included: • Units with physical defects (lacking complete kitchen or bathroom); • Overcrowded conditions (housing units with more than one person per room); • Housing cost burdens, including utilities, exceeding 30 percent of gross income; or • Severe housing cost burdens, including utilities, exceeding 50 percent of gross income. As is the case with many cities, there is strong variation between homeowners and renters who experience housing problems in the City, as shown in Table 2-14. Of all homeowners in the City, 35.3 percent experience at least one housing problem, while 45.1 percent of renters experience one these problems. Over half of all households in the City have at least one housing problem (58.5 percent). Severe housing problems are comprised of incomplete kitchen facilities, incomplete plumbing facilities, more than 1.5 persons per room, and a cost burden greater than 50 percent. The CHAS reports that just under a quarter of Newport Beach households experience at least one of these problems (23 percent). Similarly to general housing problems, renters here are also more likely to be affected; in the City, 27.2 percent of renter -occupied units are subject to at least one severe housing problem. A lower — yet substantial — percentage of homeowners live with at least one severe housing problem (19.8 percent).

Overcrowding "Overcrowding" is generally defined as a housing unit occupied by more than one person per room in house (including living room and dining rooms, but excluding hallways, kitchen, and bathrooms). An overcrowded household results from either a lack of affordable housing, which forces more than one household to live together, and/or a lack of available housing units of adequate size. Overcrowding can indicate that a community does not have an adequate supply of affordable housing, especially for large families. However, overcrowding can also be a result of different cultural or demographic housing preferences. For example, the option to live with an existing family member in a new country may be an opportunity for an immigrant family or person to transition from an old home to a new one securely and help maintain cultural values. Overcrowded and severely overcrowded households can lead to neighborhood deterioration due to the intensive use of individual housing units leading to excessive wear and tear, and the potential cumulative overburdening of community infrastructure and service capacity. Overcrowding in neighborhoods can lead to an overall decline in social cohesion and environmental quality.

Table 2-15: Overcrowding by Tenure, 2018 Table 2-15 breaks down the severity of overcrowding in Newport Beach by household tenure. As the table shows, there is a very low percentage of units that are overcrowded (1.5 percent). About 80 percent of those overcrowded units are renter -occupied, with 1.3 percent of households being overcrowded and severely overcrowded. Only 0.2 percent of owner -occupied units exceed 1 person per bedroom. In comparison to the surrounding cities, as outlined in Table 2-16, Newport Beach has kept the lowest percentages of overcrowding for both renters and homeowners. Costa Mesa reported the largest total percentage of overcrowded cities (9 percent), which is 7.5 percent over that of Newport Beach. Orange County reported 21,800 overcrowded units and 8.9 percent of total households.

Overpayment (Cost Burden) In Relationship to Income State and federal standards indicate that a household paying more than 30 percent of its income for housing is overpaying. Overpayment for housing can cause an imbalance on the remainder of a household's budget. Section 2: Community Profile (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) 2-16 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSIMr—, FI F=MPNIT As reported by the CHAS and presented in Table 2-1 , a large portion of households are subject to some form of overpayment in Newport Beach. Renters in the City represent a greater portion of the community that is overpaying for housing, but homeowners are 12 percent behind and exceed renters in total count –there are 11,810 homeowners overpaying and 10,880 renters overpaying for housing. Homeowners who earn over 100 percent of the HUD area median family income (AMFI), and are considered high-income, make up the largest group experiencing cost burdens greater than 30 percent and 50 percent. For renters, those who experience housing burdens are those who earn a moderate to low-income. Table 2-17: Summary of Housing Overpayment, 2013-2017 State law recognizes that certain households may have more difficulty in finding adequate and affordable housing due to special circumstances. Special needs populations include seniors, persons with disabilities, female -headed households, large households, and farmworkers.

Section 2: Community Profile (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) 2-17 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Special circumstances may be related to one's employment and income, family characteristics, disability and household characteristics, or other factors. Consequently, certain residents in Newport Beach may experience higher incidences of housing overpayment (cost burden), overcrowding, or other housing problems. The special needs groups analyzed in the Housing Element include the elderly, persons with disabilities (including persons with developmental disabilities), people experiencing homelessness, single parents, large households, and farmworkers (Table 2-18). These groups may overlap, for example elderly people may also have a disability of some type. The majority of these special needs groups could be assisted by an increase in affordable housing. Table 2-18: Special Needs Groups in Newport Beach 1. Seniors The senior population, which is generally defined as those over 65 years of age, has several concerns: limited and fixed incomes, high healthcare costs, higher incidence of mobility and self-care limitations, transit dependency, and living alone. Specific housing needs of the senior population include affordable housing, supportive housing (such as intermediate care facilities), group homes, and other housing that includes a planned service component. Newport Beach has the second largest population of seniors over the age of 65 at 22.7 percent, as shown in Table 2-19. This is 8.8 percent above the percentage for the County. Laguna Beach is reported to have the largest senior population of the area (23.3 percent) and Irvine has the lowest at 9.9 percent of its population.

In addition to overpayment problems faced by seniors due to their relatively fixed incomes, many seniors are faced with various disabilities. In 2018, the American Community Survey (ACS) reported 4,134 seniors with disabilities. Among these disabilities, the most common were ambulatory disabilities, independent living disabilities and hearing disabilities. Key Challenges and Resources to Address Senior Housing Needs Seniors in Newport Beach generally have exhibited the following unique challenges to housing: • Having Limited and fixed incomes, • Disproportionately higher healthcare costs, adding monthly living costs • Higher incidence of mobility and self-care limitations requiring customized housing features • Transit dependency • Limited in-home support, due to living alone. To address these challenges, the City must consider a variety of solutions to address the above issues: these may include: • More affordable housing options for Seniors • Supportive City programs to help sustain decent, safe and affordable housing for dependent Seniors. • Housing with included supportive services • Group Homes options for persons with self-care limitations Resources currently available at the City includes a robust Senior Services program. Section 3.C.3 of this Housing Element includes an analysis on deed -restricted affordable housing units and affordable units at -risk of converting to market -rate. The City of Newport Beach currently has one affordable housing project for senior residents. Seaview Lutheran Plaza includes 100 deed -restricted affordable housing units reserved for extremely low and very low-income seniors through 2039; it is not considered at -risk of converting to market -rate over the next 10 years. To address unique needs of senior residents living in the City, the following three programs have been included in Section 4: Section 2: Community Profile (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) 2-19 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT • Policy Action 613: Repair Loans and Grant Programs for Seniors, Persons with Physical and Developmental Disabilities and Lower -Income Households • Policy Action 6E: Housing Assistance for Seniors • Policy Action 6G: Senior Housing Priority Program The City will continue providing housing resources to its senior population through community partnerships and by facilitating the development of senior housing units. Z. Persons with Physical and Developmental Disabilities Physical and developmental disabilities can hinder access to traditionally designed housing units, as well as potentially limit the ability to earn adequate income. Physical, mental, and/or developmental disabilities may deprive a person from earning income, restrict one's mobility, or make self-care difficult. Thus, persons with disabilities often have special housing needs related to limited earning capacity, a lack of accessible and affordable housing, and higher healthcare costs associated with a disability. Some residents suffer from disabilities that require living in a supportive or institutional setting. Although no current comparisons of disabilitywith income, household size, or race/ethnicity are available, it is reasonable to assume that a substantial portion of persons with disabilities would have annual incomes within Federal and State income limits. Furthermore, many lower-income persons with disabilities are likely to require housing assistance and services. Housing needs for disabled persons are further compounded by design issues and location factors, which can often be costly. For example, special needs of households with wheelchair-bound or semi -ambulatory individuals may require ramps, holding bars, special bathroom designs, wider doorways, lower cabinets, elevators, and other interior and exterior design features. Housing opportunities for persons with disabilities can be addressed through the provision of affordable, barrier -free housing. Rehabilitation assistance can be targeted toward renters and homeowners with disabilities for unit modification to improve accessibility. As addressed in Table 2-20, the 2018 ACS identifies six disability types: hearing disability, vision disability, cognitive disability, ambulatory disability, self-care disability and independent living disability. The Census and the ACS provide clarifying questions to determine persons with disabilities and differentiate disabilities within the population.

Source: American Community Survey, 5 -Year Estimates, 2018. The ACS defines a disability as a report of one of the six disabilities identified by the following questions: • Hearing Disability: Is this person deaf or does he/she have serious difficulty hearing? • Visual Disability: Is this person blind or do they have serious difficulty seeing even when wearing glasses? • Cognitive Difficulty: Because of a physical, mental, or emotional condition, does this person have serious difficulty concentrating, remembering, or making decisions? • Ambulatory Difficulty: Does this person have serious difficulty walking or climbing stairs? • Independent Living Difficulty: Because of a physical, mental, or emotional condition, does this person have difficulty doing errands alone such as visiting a doctor's office or shopping? State law requires that the Housing Element discuss the housing needs of persons with developmental disabilities. As defined by federal law, "developmental disability' means a severe, chronic disability of an individual that: • Is attributable to a mental or physical impairment or combination of mental and physical impairments; • Is manifested before the individual attains age 22; • Is likely to continue indefinitely; • Results in substantial functional limitations in three or more of the following areas of major life activity: a) self-care; b) receptive and expressive language; c) learning; d) mobility; e) self-direction; f) capacity for independent living; or g) economic self-sufficiency; and • Reflects the individual's need for a combination and sequence of special, interdisciplinary, or generic services, individualized supports, or other forms of assistance that are of lifelong or extended duration and are individually planned and coordinated. Per 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 disabilityfor that individual which includes intellectual disability, cerebral palsy, epilepsy, and autism. This term also includes disabling conditions found to be closely Section 2: Community Profile (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) 2-21 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT related to intellectual disability or to require treatment like that required for individuals with intellectual disability but shall not include other handicapping conditions that are solely physical in nature. According to the Regional Center of Orange County's (RCOC) Total Annual Expenditures and Authorized Services for Fiscal Year 2019-2020, a total of 25,163 individuals received services. RCOC represents the fifth-largest regional center in California and has over 300 service coordinators. Of those who received services, 31.6 percent reported their race as White, 16 percent reported Asian, 16.1 percent reported Other Ethnicity or Race/Multi-Cultural, and 2 percent reporter Black/African American. Approximately 34 percent of those who received services also reported their ethnicity as Hispanic or Latino. Ages of the 25,163 individuals includes 21.1 percent 2 years or younger, 39.9 percent 3 to 21 years, and 39 percent over the age of 22. The majority of those who received services lived at the home of a parent or guardian (82.3 percent), but 6.8 percent live in a Community Care Facility and 5.6 percent live in Independent Living or Supported Living. Diagnosis reported by the individuals who received services include the following: • Intellectual Disability: 37.6% • Autism: 31% • Cerebral Palsy: 2.5.% • Epilepsy: 1% • Category 5: 3.9% • Other:24.1% For Newport Beach, the California Department of Developmental Services provides estimates of persons with developmental disabilities in Newport Beach. As of June 2019, 232 juvenile persons have been and 123 adults have been identified as have a developmental disability. The majority of these residents are juveniles who live at home with a parent or guardian.

Section 2: Community Profile (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) 2-22 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Many people with developmental disabilities can live and work independently within a conventional housing environment. Individuals with more severe developmental disabilities may 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 persons with developmental disabilities is the transition from the person's living situation as a child to an appropriate level of independence as an adult. There are several housing types appropriate for people living with a development disability: rent - subsidized homes, licensed and unlicensed single -unit homes, inclusionary housing, Section 8 vouchers, special programs for home purchase, Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) housing, and SB 962 (veterans) homes. The design of housing -accessibility modifications, the proximity to services and transit, and the availability of group living opportunities represent some of the types of considerations that are important in serving the needs of this group. Incorporating 'barrier -free design in all, new multi- unit housing (as required by California and Federal Fair Housing laws) is especially important to provide the widest range of choices for residents with disabilities. Special consideration should also be given to the affordability of housing, as people with disabilities may be living on a fixed income. Key Challenges and Resources to Address Persons with Physical and Developmental Disabilities Persons with physical and developmental disabilities in Newport Beach have exhibited the following unique challenges to housing: • Need for specialized housing to accommodate disabilities • Need for supportive services • Higher incidence of dependent living needs • High incidence of unemployment To address these challenges, the City must consider a variety of solutions to address the above issues: these may include: • Regional coordination and support for services • Permitting of housing for persons with disabilities • Prioritization of services for disabled persons • Local supportive services to supplement physical housing needs • Housing regulations/accommodation of unique housing needs • Group Homes options for persons with self-care limitations Resources to address the above needs include local General Fund revenue to fund Policy Actions described in Chapter 4, and partnership with the Orange County Regional Center, who provides and coordinates lifelong support and services to persons with disabilities. The City's existing permit procedures, regulations and policies further support physical and developmental disabilities through the granting of uses and facilities to accommodate the needs of persons disabilities. The City also has a reasonable Section 2: Community Profile (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) 2-23 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT accommodation procedure that is intended to grant accommodations for persons with disabilities with the expressed intent not to cause additional cost to the requestee. The City has included Policy Action 7C in Section 4 to address housing needs for persons with developmental disabilities. The City will review and prioritize housing and supportive services for persons with developmental disabilities, as well as explore regulatory incentives for projects that address the needs of persons with developmental disabilities. 3. Large Households Large households are defined as those consisting of five or more members. These households comprise a special need group because many communities have a limited supply of adequately sized and affordable housing units. To save for other necessities such as food, clothing, and medical care, it is common for lower-income large households to reside in smaller units with inadequate number of bedrooms, which frequently results in overcrowding and can contribute to fast rates of deterioration. Securing housing large enough to accommodate all members of a household is more challenging for renters because multi -unit rental units are typically physically smaller than single -unit ownership homes. While apartment complexes offering two and three bedrooms are common, apartments with four or more bedrooms are rare. It is more likely that large households will experience overcrowding in comparison to smaller households. Additionally, throughout the region, single -unit homes with higher bedroom counts, whether rental or ownership units, are rarely affordable to lower-income households. Table 2-22 outlines the number of large households in the City by tenure and household size. As is shown, the vast majority of large households are owner -occupied rather than rented (71.3 percent and 28.7 percent respectively). There are very few households with 7 or more persons in owner -occupied homes and none in rentals. Amongst all rental homes, 2.5 percent are 5 -person households and amongst owned homes 4.4 percent are 5 -person households. Table 2-22: Large Households by Tenure, 2017 Key Challenges and Resources to Address Large Person Households Large Person Households in Newport Beach have exhibited the following unique challenges to housing: • Lack of available housing with sufficient bedroom counts Section 2: Community Profile (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) 2-24 Owner Renter Total Household Size Percent of Total Percent of Total Percent of Count Count Count Owner HHs Renter HHs Total HHs 5 -Person 933 4.4% 417 ° 2.5/ 1,350 ° 3.6/° Household 6 -person 398 1.9% 93 0.6%491 1.3/° ° Household 7+ person 56 0.3% 48 0.3% 104 0.3% Households Total 1,387 71.3% 558 28.7% 1,945 100% Source: American Community Survey, 5 -Year Estimates, 2018.

Regional resources include OCHFA, SCHFAfunding, Orange County Continuum of Care and Orange County Housing Authority Funding. The City has included Policy Actions 1A -1F, 4C, 4D and 6C,6D that will provide standards and provisions that will support the provision of larger sized family units. 4. Single -Parent Households Single -parent households often require special consideration and assistance due to their greater need for affordable and accessible daycare, health care, and other supportive services. Many female -headed households with children are susceptible to having lower -incomes than similar two-parent households. Single, female mothers often face social marginalization pressures that often limit their occupational choices and income earning potential, housing options and access to supportive services. Table 2-232 shows there are few single parent households in Newport Beach (3.6 percent) as compared to 7.4 percent in Orange County. Most single -parent households in both the City and Orange County are headed by females without a spouse present — 68.9 percent in Newport Beach and 70.5 percent in Orange County. The percentage of single parents living in poverty in the City is half that of the regional percentage.

Permanent farm laborers work in the fields, processing plants, or support activities on a generally year-round basis. When workload increases during harvest periods, the labor force is supplemented by seasonal workers, often supplied by a labor contractor. For some crops, farms may hire migrant workers, defined as those whose travel prevents them from returning to their primary residence every evening. Farmworkers have special housing needs because they earn lower -incomes than many other workers and move throughout the year from one harvest location to the next. The United States Department of Agriculture, National Agriculture Statistics provides data on hired farm labor across the United States. The data is compiled at both a State and County level. Within Orange County, a total of 99 farms reportedly hired 1,772 workers in 2017. Permanent workers, those who work 150 days or more, represent the largest category of workers with 1,106 workers (62 percent). A total of 666 workers (38 percent) are considered seasonal and work less than 150 days.

In addition, the County reported 176 unpaid workers. 2018 ACS 5 -Year Estimates data reports a total of 72 Newport Beach residents employed full time, year round in the agriculture, forestry, fishing, hunting, and mining industry. Fourteen (14) residential are employed full time in farmworkers jobs. These are most likely very small local operations and not large scale farming activities .The median annual wage for these industries is $27,472 and falls below 50 percent of the median income for Orange County (32 percent). Key Challenges and Resources to Address Farmworker Housing Needs Farmworker Households in Newport Beach have exhibited the following unique challenges to housing: • Affordable Housing Options • Higher incidents of cost burden for housing • Rental and For Sale Housing Options • Childcare needs for working families Similar to other special needs groups, Farmworkers needs are focused on affordability of housing and access to services that support lower monthly overall costs. To address these challenges, the City must consider a variety of solutions to address the above issues: these may include: • Affordable housing options for farmworkers • Accessibility to childcare options • Leveraging of Grant/Funding opportunities With incidents of Farmworker households representing less than one half of one percent, the city believes the existing opportunities and policies related to affordable housing options, childcare access and leveraging of funding will provide the necessary resources to address the needs of this segment of the population will assist in the needs for farmworkers citywide. 'R. Extremely Low-income Households and Poverty Status The 2013-2017 Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS) indicates that there are 3,270 low- income households living in Newport Beach. Very low-income households earn 50 percent or less of the area median family income (AMFI) for Orange County. Extremely low-income households earn less than 30 percent of the AMFI. There are approximately 3,855 extremely low-income households in the City, including both renters and homeowners. Table 2-23 below shows a breakdown of housing problems for Newport Beach households by income category. Table 2-24-3 shows that about 10 percent more renters live with at least one housing problem. More lower-income renters report a housing problem — 9.2 percent with extremely low-income, 10.6 percent with very low-income, and 12.5 percent with low-income. About 45 percent of renters experience one or more housing problems. Homeowners typically report less of a cost burden than renters. In Newport Beach, 35.3 percent of homeowners have at least one housing problem. The majority of those are in Section 2: Community Profile (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) 2-27 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT above -moderate -income households (15.9 percent). In total, for both renters and homeowners, 39.5 percent of households have at least one housing problem. While representing only 0.8 percent of the Newport Beach population, people who identify as Black have the highest rates of poverty in the City, as illustrated in Figure 2-6. Similarly, American Indian/Alaska Natives and Native Hawaiian/other Pacific Islanders make up the smallest population percentages (0.3 percent and 0.2 percent, respectively) and together account for over 20 percent of those living below the poverty line. Values in the bar graph below contrasted to racial and ethnic composition of the City illustrate critical differences in housing needs. To calculate the projected housing needs, the City assumed 50 percent of its very low-income regional housing need are extremely low-income households. Calculating from the very low-income need of 1,456 units, the City has an estimated need of 728 housing units for extremely low-income households. Extremely low-income household needs will likely be focused to_rental housing and more likely to experience overpayment, overcrowding or substandard housing conditions and more likely to include transitional and supportive housing.

The City is committed to prioritizing funding and other available incentives for projects that provide housing for homeless and extremely low-income residents whenever possible. /. Persons Experiencing Homelessness Throughout the country and Orange County region, homelessness has become an increasingly important issue. Factors contributing to the rise in homelessness include, increased unemployment and underemployment, a lack of housing affordable to lower and moderate -income persons (especially extremely low-income households), reductions in public subsidies to the poor, and the de- institutionalization of the mentally ill. State law mandates that cities address the special needs of persons experiencing homelessness within their jurisdictional boundaries. "Homelessness" as defined by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has recently been updated, the following lists the updated descriptions and the changes in the definition from HUD: • People who are living in a place not meant for human habitation, in emergency shelter, in transitional housing, or are exiting an institution where they temporarily resided. The only significant change from existing practice is that people will be considered homeless if they are exiting an institution where they resided for up to 90 days (it was previously 30 days) and were in shelter or a place not meant for human habitation immediately prior to entering that institution. • People who are losing their primary nighttime residence, which may include a motel or hotel or a doubled -up situation, within 14 days and lack resources or support networks to remain in housing. HUD had previously allowed people who were being displaced within 7 days to be considered homeless. The proposed regulation also describes specific documentation requirements for this category. • Families with children or unaccompanied youth who are unstably housed and likely to continue in that state. This is a new category of homelessness, and it applies to families with children or unaccompanied youth who have not had a lease or ownership interest in a housing unit in the last 60 or more days, have had 2 or more moves in the last 60 days, and who are likely to continue to be unstably housed because of disability or multiple barriers to employment. • People who are fleeing or attempting to flee domestic violence, have no other residence, and lack the resources or support networks to obtain other permanent housing. This category is similar to the current practice regarding people who are fleeing domestic violence. This definition does not include persons living in substandard housing (unless it has been officially condemned); persons living in overcrowded housing (for example, doubled up with others); persons being discharged from mental health facilities (unless the person was homeless when entering and is considered to be homeless at discharge); or persons who may be at risk of homelessness (for example, living temporarily with family or friends.) The Point in Time Count is conducted by the County of Orange in accordance with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) guidelines to provide information on where individuals Section 2: Community Profile (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) 2-31 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT experiencing homelessness are in the County. About 1,167 volunteers across the County counted 6,860 individuals experiencing homelessness. Of those, 2,899 were sheltered and 3,961 were unsheltered. The 2020 Count is not yet available online, therefore this data is based on the Count conducted in January 2019 — the individual city results are shown in Table 2-26. Of the nearby cities, Newport Beach had the lowest count and percentage of people experiencing homelessness (64 individuals and 0.9 percent of the County). Huntington Beach recorded the greatest percentage at 5.1 percent. Of all those reported in Orange County, 5 percent were veterans, 4 percent were transitional youth ages 18 to 24, and 9 percent were seniors over the age of 65.

Key Challenges and Resources to Address Persons Experiencing Homelessness The City has taken steps to address the very complex issue of homelessness. City staff and City Net, a contractor that assists with community outreach and case management services, work in collaboration to engage these individuals and connect them with services such as emergency housing, mental and health care, benefits counseling and a variety of other community-based programs and services. The City also has a dedicated, full-time police officer and a homeless coordinator who focus on the issue of homelessness. The Homeless Liaison Officer works closely with the County of Orange Health Care Agency's case management staff and City Net to provide homeless outreach services. The uniqueness of each homeless individual's situation requires an individual approach. Since everyone's needs are different, our staff works with our homeless individuals on a case-by-case basis. It is important to understand that often, individuals are resistant to seeing case workers or our police officers assigned to work with those experiencing homelessness. Multiple visits may be required before we gain a person's trust in a way that opens a conversation about solutions. That is why, in addition to our full-time officer, the City has contracted with City Net to provide homeless outreach services. Street outreach services seeks to connect unsheltered homeless individuals with emergency shelter, housing, critical services, healthcare, or urgent, non -facility -based care. Newport Beach has entered a partnership with the adjacent City of Costa Mesa for shelter beds at the Costa Mesa Bridge Shelter, which opened in Spring 2021. In addition to temporary housing, the Bridge Section 2: Community Profile (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) 2-32 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT !", Shelter provides case workers who assist homeless individuals with addiction and mental health counseling, job searches, and accessing permanent housing. The City has included Policy Action 6A to address the needs of persons experiencing homelessness. The Policy Action continues the City's efforts to fund sub -recipients who provide shelter and services to persons experiencing homelessness. In addition, Policy Action 7A and 7B address supportive and transitional housing and low barrier navigation center needs for persons experiencing homelessness. 8. Students Student housing often only produces a temporary housing need based on the duration of the educational institution enrolled in. The impact upon housing demand is critical in areas that surround universities and colleges. Located in Newport Beach is Coastline College, and colleges near the City include University of California, Irvine; Concordia University; Orange Coast College; Vanguard University; Laguna College of Art and Design; SOKA University; and Irvine Valley College. Students enrolled in undergraduate and graduate programs, make up about 6 percent of the total population of Newport Beach. Key Challenges and Resources to Address Student Housing Needs Typically, students are low-income and are, therefore, affected by a lack of affordable housing, especially within easy commuting distance from campus, therefore it is important for the City to consider and accommodate the student population within the community. They often seek shared housing situations to decrease expenses and can be assisted through roommate referral services offered on and off campus. A lack of affordable housing also influences choices students make after graduating. The characteristics of the housing stock, including growth, type, availability and tenure, age and condition, housing costs, and affordability contribute to the housing needs for the community. This section details the housing characteristics of Newport Beach to identify how well the current housing stock meets the needs of its current and future residents. 1. Housing Growth According to the American Community Survey (ACS), the City's housing stock grew by 1,298 units between 2010 and 2018 (Table 2-27). This 2.9 percent increase was the second largest in this area, behind the City of Irvine which had a dramatically larger gain of 31 percent. Orange County as a whole experienced a 4.6 percent housing stock increase during this same time period, which is 1.7 percent more than Newport Beach. The City of Costa Mesa had smaller percent change than Newport Beach by 2.3 percent.

Housing Type Table 2-28 is a breakdown of housing units by type in Newport Beach in contrast to Orange County. The table reflects data from the American Community Survey which is estimates based on the U.S. Census and surveys. A large percentage of housing units in the City come from single unit detached homes (47.8 percent). Single unit attached homes typically do not take up a large portion of the housing stock, but in Newport Beach they account for 16.1 percent of all units. Another 34.5 percent is multi -unit housing, which is the same for the County as well. Mobile homes are the smallest category of housing types with 1.5 percent of all units. It is important to provide a wide variety of housing types throughout the City in order to ensure all housing needs for the population are met. Table 2-28: Total Housing Units by Type 3. Housing Availability and Tenure Housing tenure and vacancy rates generally influence the supply and cost of housing. Housing tenure defines if a unit is owner -occupied or renter occupied. Tenure is an important market characteristic as it relates to the availability of housing product types and length of tenure. The tenure characteristics in a community can indicate several aspects of the housing market, such as affordability, household stability, and availability of unit types, among others. In many communities, tenure distribution generally correlates with household income, composition, and age of the householder. In 2018, owner -occupied units accounted for 56.5 percent of the Newport Beach housing stock and 43.5 percent were rentals (Table 2-29). Of the owner -occupied units, the large majority were single unit Section 2: Community Profile (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) 2-34 Single -Unit Detached Single -Unit Attached Multi -Unit Mobile Homes Jurisdiction Count Percent Count Percent Count Percent Count Percent Newport Beach 21,399 47.8% 7,234 16.1% 15,437 34.5% 390 1.5% Orange County 553,164 50.7% 133,326 12.2% 374,176 34.3% 30,227 2.8% Source: American Community Survey, 5 -Year Estimates, 2018. 3.

As is often the case, multi -unit homes accounted for over half of all rentals (67.9 percent) and only 17 percent of rental units were single unit detached homes. Mobile homes are more likely to be occupied by renters, as the Table 2-27 shows.

To identify housing trends and potential population needs, Table 2-30 compares average household sizes and tenure amongst the cities surrounding Newport Beach. Renters in the City have one of the lowest average household sizes at just 2 people per home. Homeowners in Newport Beach also have the second smallest number of people per household after Laguna Beach with 2.3 people per home. The County average is 3.1 persons for rentals and 3 persons for owner -occupied homes. Figure 2-7 illustrates vacancy rates by jurisdiction and shows that Newport Beach has the second largest percentage of vacant homes at 15.5 percent. The City's vacancy rate is 3 times that of Orange County. Vacancy rates indicate the degree of choice available. High vacancy rates usually indicate low demand and/or high supply conditions in the housing market. Too high of a vacancy rate can be difficult for owners trying to sell or rent. Low vacancy rates usually indicate high demand and/or low supply conditions in the housing market. Too low of a vacancy rate can force prices up making it more difficult for lower and moderate -income households to find housing. Vacancy rates of between 2 to 3 percent are usually considered healthy for single -unit or ownership housing, and rates of 5 to 6 percent are usually considered healthy for multi -unit or rental housing.

The most common reason for vacancies in Newport Beach is due to homes being used seasonally, or for recreation or occasional use (48.3 percent), as shown in Table 2-31 These 3,350 homes are not permanent residences and remain empty for most of the year. Homes for rent are the second most common reason for vacancies in the City at 22.4 percent.

Housing Age and Condition Housing age can be an indicator of housing condition within a community. For example, housing that is over 30 years old is typically in need of some major rehabilitation, such as a new roof, foundation, plumbing, etc. Many federal and state programs also use the age of housing as one factor in determining housing rehabilitation needs. In Newport Beach, most homes were built over 30 years ago (Figure 2-8). About 22.3 percent of the housing stock was built between 1970 and 1979, while only 2.7 percent was built after 2010. Another 8 percent of homes were also built prior to 1950. This reflects an aging housing stock that may need certain updates.

Housing Costs and Affordability Housing costs reflect the supply and demand of housing in a community. This section summarizes the cost and affordability of the housing stock to the City's residents. Home values in Newport Beach are on median $1,787,300, as shown in Table 2-32. This total is 2.7 times the median home value of Orange County and significantly larger than the nearby cities. Laguna Beach is second behind Newport Beach in home value with a median amount of $1,700,400. Costa Mesa has the lowest median home value of $707,600.

Housing affordability can be inferred by comparing the cost of renting or owning a home in the City with the maximum affordable housing costs for households at different income levels. Taken together, this information can generally show who can afford what size and type of housing and indicate the type of households most likely to experience overcrowding and overpayment. The Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) conducts annual household income surveys nationwide to determine a household's eligibility for federal housing assistance. Based on this survey, the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) developed income limits, based on the Area Median Family Income (AMFI), which can be used to determine the maximum price that could be affordable to households in the upper range of their respective income category. Households in the lower end of each category can afford less by comparison than those at the upper end. The maximum affordable home and rental prices for residents in Orange County are shown in Table 2-34 and Table 2-35. The data shows the maximum amount that a household can payfor housing each month without incurring a cost burden (overpayment). This amount can be compared to current housing asking prices (Table 2-32) and market rental rates (Table 2-33) to determine what types of housing opportunities a household can afford. Extremely Low-income Households Extremely low-income households earn less than 30 percent of the County AMFI — up to $26,950 for a one-person household and up to $41,550 for a five -person household in 2020. Extremely low-income households cannot afford market -rate rental or ownership housing in Newport Beach without assuming a substantial cost burden. Section 2: Community Profile (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) 2-40 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Very Low-income Households Very low-income households earn between 31 percent and 50 percent of the County AM FI —up to $44,850 for a one-person household and up to $69,200 for a five -person household in 2020. A very low-income household cannot afford market -rate rental or ownership housing in Newport Beach without assuming a substantial cost burden. A very low-income household at the maximum income limit can afford to pay approximately $1,121 to $1,730 in monthly rent, depending on household size. Given the high cost of housing in the City, persons, or households of very low-income could not afford to rent or purchase a home in the City. Low-income Households Low-income households earn between 51 percent and 80 percent of the County's AMFI - up to $71,750 for a one-person household and up to $110,650 for a five -person household in 2020. The affordable home price for a low-income household at the maximum income limit ranges from $308,500 to $454,000. Based on the asking prices of homes for sale in 2020 (Table 2-30), ownership housing would not be affordable to low-income households. A one-person low-income household could afford to pay up to $1,794 in rent per month and a five -person low-income household could afford to pay as much as $2,766. Low-income households in Newport Beach would not be able to find adequately sized affordable apartment units (Table 2-31). Moderate -income Households Persons and households of moderate -income earn between 81 percent and 120 percent of the County's AM Fl — up to $133,500, depending on household size in 2020. The maximum affordable home price for a moderate -income household is $377,000 for a one-person household and $558,600 for a five -person family. Moderate -income households in Newport Beach would not be able to purchase a home in the City. The maximum affordable rent payment for moderate -income households is between $2,163 and $3,338 per month. A one-person moderate -income household may be able to find some adequately sized affordable apartment units; larger households would not be able to afford to rent a unit in the City.

Housing constraints consist of both governmental constraints, including but not limited to land use controls, development fees and permitting fees, development standards, building codes and permitting processes; as well as, nongovernmental or market constraints, including but not limited to land costs, construction costs, and availability of finances. Combined, these factors create barriers to availability and affordability of new housing, especially for lower and moderate -income households. Nongovernmental constraints affect the cost of housing in the City of Newport Beach and can produce barriers to housing production and affordability. These constraints include the availability and cost of land for residential development, the demand for housing, financing, and lending, construction costs, and the availability of labor, which can make it expensive for developers to build any housing, and especially affordable housing. The following highlights the primary market factors that affect the production of housing in Newport Beach. 1. Land Costs and Construction Costs Construction costs vary widely according to the type of development, with multi -unit housing generally less expensive to construct than single -unit homes. However, there is variation within each construction type, depending on the size of the unit and the number and quality of amenities provided. An indicator of construction costs is Building Valuation Data compiled by the International Code Council (ICC). The International Code Council 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. The ICC updates the estimated cost of construction at six-month intervals and provides estimates for the average cost of labor and materials for typical Type VA wood -frame housing. Estimates are based on "good -quality" construction, providing for materials and fixtures well above the minimum required by state and local building codes. In August 2020, the ICC estimated that the average per square -foot cost for good -quality housing was approximately $118.57 for multi -unit housing, $131.24 for single -unit homes, and $148.44 for residential care/assisted living facilities. Construction costs for custom homes and units with extra amenities, run even higher. Construction costs are also dependent upon materials used and building height, as well as regulations set by the City's adopted Building Code. For example, according to the ICC, an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) or converting a garage using a Type VB wood framed unit would costs about $123.68 per square foot. Although construction costs are a significant portion of the overall development cost, they are consistent throughout the region and, especially when considering land costs, are not considered a major constraint to housing production in Newport Beach. Land costs can also pose a significant constraint to the development of affordable and middle-income housing and represents a significant cost component in residential development. Land costs may vary depending on whether the site is vacant or has an existing use that must be removed. Similarly, site constraints such as environmental issues (e.g., steep slopes, soil stability, seismic hazards, flooding) can also be factored into the cost of land. There are approximately 6,000 acres of vacant and non -vacant Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-1 (DRAFT WO-VE2022) L. r City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT residential land (39.3 percent), out of approximately 15,238 acres of land in Newport Beach, which are not currently subject to land use constraints (airport restrictions, flood zone, fire high severity zone, NCCP conservation area, seismic hazard, and sea level rise). However, majority of the acres are developed and may require rezoning, reuse, and redevelopment due to a lack of vacant sites in the City. Additional costs may be associated with redeveloping and/or converting sites which may influence the cost of the rental units or home value. A September 2020 web search using the Orange County Market report for lots for sale in the City of Newport Beach returned less than five vacant lots listed for sale. Of the lots listed, the costs ranged from $600,000 for 0.075 acres near Santa Ana Heights (about $183 per square foot), to $4,995,000 for 0.27 acres with an ocean view (about $430 per square foot). Larger vacant lots reached as high as $9,995,000 for 0.77 acres inland (about $295 per square foot) to $10,500,000 for 0.51 acres of land (about $474 per square foot) closer to the coast. According to the same report, in September coastal lots listed for sale in the City averaged $8,000,000 for 0.6 acres. The cost of land in Newport Beach is higher than neighboring cities, such as Laguna Beach, where the median cost of land is about $115 per square foot. Therefore, land and redevelopment costs in Newport Beach create a significant constraint to the development of housing, specifically affordable housing. '. Availability Financing The availability of financing in a community depends on several factors, including the type of lending institutions active in a community, lending practices, rates and fees charged, laws and regulations governing financial institutions, and equal access to such loans. Additionally, availability of financing affects a person's ability to purchase or improve a home. Under the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA), lending institutions are required to disclose information on the disposition of loan applications and the income, gender, and race of loan applicants. The primary concern in a review of lending activity is to determine whether home financing is available to residents of a community. The data presented in this section include the disposition of loan applications submitted to financial institutions for home purchase, home improvement, and refinancing in Newport Beach. Table 3-1 below displays the disposition of loan applications for the Anaheim -Santa Ana -Irvine Metropolitan Statistical Area/Metropolitan Division (MSA/MD), per the 2016 Home Mortgage Disclosure Act report. According to the data, applicants in the 120 percent median -income or more had the highest rates of loans approved. Of that income category, applicants who reported White had the highest percentage of approval and the number of applications. Applicants in the less than 50 percent of the MSA/MD median -income categories were showed higher percentages of denied loans than loans originated. According to the data, applicants who reported white were, on average, more likely to be approved for a loan than another race or ethnicity. Given the relatively high rates of approval for home purchase, improvement, and refinance loans, home financing is generally available and not considered a significant constraint to the provision and maintenance of housing in Newport Beach.

Economic Constraints Market forces on the economy and the trickle-down effects on the construction industry can act as a barrier to housing construction and especially to affordable housing construction. It is estimated that housing price growth will continue in the City and the region for the foreseeable future. Moving into 2020, the economy was growing, California was seeing a 1.6 -percent growth in jobs from 2019 and experiencing all-time lows for unemployment rates. COVID-19 had stalled much of the economy in early 2020, however, Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-3 (DRAFT N'QVE nQro 20_24 JANUARY 2022) f City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT A as the California economy regains momentum housing stock and prices in the Newport Beach community remain stable. A 2020 California Association of Realtors (CAR) report found that homes on the market in Orange County experienced a nine percent year to year increase and cost an average of $880,000 in February 2020; almost $300,000 higher than the State median home price in the same month ($579,770). According to the CAR First Time Buyer Housing Affordability Index, from 2018 to 2019 the median value of a home in Orange County was $703,800 with monthly payments (including taxes and insurance) of $3,630, requiring an average qualifying income of $108,900. Homes and cost of living in Newport Beach was reported higher than the State median housing and living costs. According to September 2020 data from Zillow, the median home value of single -unit homes and condos in Newport Beach is $2,407,454. According to Zillow's methodology, this value is seasonally adjusted to remove outliers and only includes the middle price -tier of homes. Newport Beach home values have gone up 0.7 percent over the past year and Zillow predicts they will rise 3.4 percent within the next year. Newport's home value index ($2,407,454) has been on a steep and steady rise since early 2012, and according to a September 2020 forecasts, they are expected to increase slightly (estimated $2,490,000) in 2021. Orange County by comparison has a median home value index of $777,000, according to the same September 2020 report, which is significantly lower than the City of Newport. Forecasted home prices in the County, through 2021 are set to see minor increases ($810,000). The cost of land and home prices in Newport are considered a major constraint to the development of and access to housing, particularly the development of and access to affordable housing. In addition to market constraints, local policies and regulations also affect the price and availability of housing and the provision of affordable housing. For example, State and Federal regulations affect the availability of land for housing and the cost of housing production, making it difficult to meet the demand for affordable housing and limiting supply in a region. Regulations related to environmental protection, building codes, and other topics have significant, often adverse, impacts on housing cost and availability. While the City of Newport Beach has no control over State and Federal Laws that affect housing, local laws including land use controls, site improvement requirements, fees and exactions, permit processing procedures, and other factors can constrain the maintenance, development, and improvement of housing create barriers to housing. 1. Land Use Control-, In the State of California, cities are required to prepare a comprehensive, long term General Plan to guide future development. The Land Use Element of the General Plan establishes land uses of developments within the City of Newport Beach. The Land Use Element sets for policies and regulations for guiding local development. These policies, together with existing zoning regulations, establish the amount and distribution of land to be allocated for different uses within the City. The Land Use Element of the General Plan identifies the following residential and mixed-use categories: Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-4 (DRAFT NQ_Vr_nnQro 20-24 JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT `� :. .fir � •�a�y • Single Unit Residential Detached (RS -D): The RS -D category applies to a range of detached single - unit residential dwelling units on a single legal lot and does not include condominiums or cooperative housing. The RS -D category permits a density range from 0.0 to 29.9 DU/AC. • Single Unit Residential Attached (RS -A): The RS -A category applies to a range of attached single - unit residential dwelling units on a single legal lot and does not include condominiums or cooperative housing. The RS -A category permits a density range from 0.0 to 29.9 DU/AC. • Two Unit Residential (RT): The RT category applies to a range of two -unit residential dwelling units such as duplexes and townhomes. The RT permits a density range from 0.0 to 39.9 DU/AC. • Multiple Residential (RM): The RM designation is intended to provide for multi -unit residential development containing attached dwelling units. The RM permits a density range from 0.0 to 52.0 DU/AC. • Multiple Residential Detached (RM -D): The RM -D designation is intended to provide primarily for multi -unit residential development exclusively containing detached dwelling units. The RM -D allows a 1.5 FAR where a minimum FAR 0.35 and maximum FAR if .5 may be used for nonresidential. • Mixed -Use Vertical (MU -V): The MU -V designation is intended to provide for the development of properties for mixed use structures that vertically integrate housing with retail uses including retail, office, restaurant, and similar nonresidential uses. For mixed-use structures, commercial uses characterized by noise, vibration, odors, or other activities that would adversely impact on- site residential units are prohibited. The MU -V allows a 1.5 FAR where a minimum FAR 0.35 and maximum FAR of .5 may be used for nonresidential. • Mixed -Use Horizontal (MU -H): The MU -H designation is intended to provide for the development of areas for a horizontally distributed mix of uses, which may include general or neighborhood commercial, commercial office, multi -unit residential, visitor -serving and marine -related uses, and/or buildings that vertically integrate residential with commercial uses. The MU -H allows a maximum FAR of 1.0 for residential. • Mixed -Use Water Related (MU -W): The MU -W designation is intended to provide for commercial development on or near the bay in a manner that will encourage the continuation of coastal - dependent and coastal -related uses in accordance with the Recreational and Marine Commercial (CM) designation, as well as allow for the integrated development of residential. The MU -W permits a density range from 0.0 to 29.9 DU/AC. These categories accommodate development of a wide range of housing types in Newport Beach. Furthermore, maintaining the existing residential categories is important for ensuring compatibility between the new and existing housing. Local Coastal Program and Land Use Plan The Local Coastal Program (LCP) is a coastal management plan that contains land use, development, public access, and resource protection policies and regulation to implement the California Coastal Act (Coastal Act). The LCP is comprised of a Land Use Plan (LUP) and an Implementation Plan (IP). The LUP serves in Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-5 (DRAFT NOVEMBER 2-0-24 JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT conjunction with, and is considered a legislative equivalent to, the City's General Plan Land Use Element to identify land uses in the Coastal Zone. The intent of this plan is to provide for land uses and residential density limits that protect coastal resources and public access.

Over 63 percent of the City of Newport Beach is within the Coastal Zone and subject to oversight by the Coastal. Although the City retains permit authority in most of the Coastal Zone, development projects located near sensitive coastal resources, such as the bay, ocean, wetlands, and environmentally sensitive habitat areas, require the processing of coastal development permits and are subject to appeal by the California Coastal Commission. This additional level of review and approval process may extend the review period of development projects and increase the application and discretionary review costs. In addition, any request to increase residential densities or allow new residential housing opportunities requires the processing of a Local Coastal Program amendment through the California Coastal Commission. An illustrative example is the Master Development Plan for Banning Ranch, a housing development project that included 1,375 dwelling units, including an affordable housing component, that was adopted by the Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-6 (DRAFT WO -VE -A.4 -RE -14 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT City in 2012, but denied by the California Coastal Commission in 2016 components but due to potential impacts to environmentally sensitive habitats and coastal resources. The Coastal Land Use Plan and Coastal Commission's additional review may inhibit development due to the added review time and costs, and uncertainty of approvals. Housing in the Coastal Zone The City of Newport Beach uses Chapters 20.34 and 21.34 (Conversion or Demolition of Affordable Housing) of the Municipal Code to implement Government Code Section 65590 et seq. Between April 3, 2000, and June 30, 2020, 3,428 new residential units were permitted for construction within the California Coastal Zone. Of these new units, 120 were developed as housing affordable to low-income individuals and/or families (Bayview Landing project). During the same time period, the City issued demolition permits for a total of 1,857 residential units within the Coastal Zone, resulting in a net increase of 1,571 units. Of the units demolished, six units were known to be occupied by low-income persons and/or families and were required to be replaced. The replacement units were provided off-site and rent restricted for a term of 30 -year at rents affordable to very low and low-income households. Lastly, the City assisted with the acquisition, rehabilitation and conversion of an existing 12 -unit apartment building located at 6001 Coast Boulevard for affordable housing — 6 for low-income veterans and 6 with a priority for low-income seniors and veterans (The Cove, Project). John Wayne Airport Environs Land Use Plan (AELUP) The City's Airport Area may be considered as an opportunity zone to add residential neighborhoods. However, land located within the Airport Planning Area for John Wayne Airport are subject to the development restrictions of the John Wayne Airport Environs Land Use Plan (AELUP), which limits the ability to develop residential units. Approximately 391 acres are subject to these residential restrictions. An amendment to the City's General Plan or rezoning for residential use requires review and approval by the Airport Land Use Commission (ALUC) and extends the total review period of a proposed housing development and subsequently increases the cost of development. The added review time and additional costs may dissuade housing developers, and particularly affordable housing developers, from developing housing in this area. Overlay Districts An overlay district is a regulatory tool that adds special provisions and regulations to an area in the City. An overlay district may be added to a neighborhood or corridor on a map or it may apply to the City as whole and be applied under certain circumstances. An overlay district may be initiated as a Zoning Map amendment. All proposed developments within the overlay district must comply with the district's applicable development standards in addition to the Zoning Code standards. Overlay Districts, which affect housing in Newport Beach, include the Mobile Home Park (MHP) Overlay Zoning District, Bluff Overlay Zoning District, and the Height Overlay District. Overlay Districts may be a constraint to the development of housing when it sets standards which are more restrictive than the Zoning Code. Overlay Coastal Districts The purposes of the individual overlay coastal zoning districts and the way they are applied are detailed below. An overlay district may be initiated as a Coastal Zoning Map amendment in compliance with Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-7 (DRAFT NO-VEn RPR 20��JANUARY 2022) L. r City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Chapter 21.14 of the City's Municipal Code. All development within these zones must comply with the applicable development standards (e.g., setbacks, height) of the underlying coastal zoning district in addition to the standards provided by the respective zone as outline in the Municipal Code, where applicable. nn,ihilP 14nmP Park nvPrlav Cnacfal 7nninrr nisfrir-t The MHP Overlay Coastal Zoning District is intended to establish a mobile home district on parcels of land developed with mobile home parks. The regulations of this district are designed to maintain and protect mobile home parks in a stable environment with a desirable residential character. However, such regulations may pose a constraint to the redevelopment of existing mobile home parks and increasing density. Uses allowed in the MHP Overlay include the following: • Mobile Home Parks • Accessory Structures incidental to the operation of Mobile Home Parks Bluff Overlay District The Bluff (B) Overlay District is intended to establish special development standards for areas of the City where projects are proposed on identified bluff areas. The Bluff Overlay District intends to provide additional regulations and requirements in order to establish safety standards for developments in the overlay District. Specific permitted uses, development standards, and requirements are outlined in the City's Municipal Code, Chapter 21.28.040. Additional regulations and development standards may prevent increased density or intensity in areas within the Bluff Overlay District. Canyon uveriay Districi*. The Canyon (C) Overlay District is intended to establish development setbacks based on the predominant line of existing development for areas that contain a segment of the canyon edge of Buck Gully or Morning Canyon. In order to ensure safe development of housing within the Canyon Overlay Districts, development standards and requirements include the following: • Development Stringline Setback: Development may not extend beyond the predominant line of existing development on canyon faces by establishing a development stringline where a line is drawn between nearest adjacent corners of existing structures on either side of the subject property. • Swimming Pools require a double wall construction • Coastal Hazards and Geologic Stability Report • Erosion Control Plan Additional specific development standards and requirements are outlined in the City's Municipal Code, Chapter 21.28.050. The Canyon Overlay District may inhibit added density or intensity of uses to residential properties within the overlay. Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-8 (DRAFT NOVEnnQro�n��JANUARY 2022) L. r City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Height Overlay The Height (H) Overlay District is intended to establish standards for review of increased building height in conjunction with the provision of enhanced project design features and amenities. The Height Overlay District includes properties located in the Multiple Residential (RM) Zoning District within Statistical Area A2. The maximum height limit is 40 feet for a flat roof and 45 feet for a sloped roof with a three-story maximum. Additional standards, regulations, and eligibility requirements are outline in the City's Municipal Code, Chapter 21.28.060. The Height Overlay District is not considered a constraint to development as it provides for higher height limits. State Density Bonus Law Density bonuses are an additional way to increase the number of dwelling units otherwise allowed in a residentially zoned area. The City's Zoning Ordinance identifies the purpose of the Density Bonus Ordinance is to grant density bonuses and incentives for the development of housing that is affordable to very low-, low-, and moderate -income households and senior citizens. Under the Density Bonus Law, developers are entitled to a density bonus corresponding to specified percentages of units set aside for very low-income, low-income, or moderate -income households. Effective January 1, 2021, California State Assembly Bill 2345 amends the Density Bonus Law to expand and enhance development incentives for projects with affordable and senior housing components. AB 2345 amends the Density Bonus Law to increase the maximum density bonus from 35 percent to 50 percent. To be eligible for the maximum bonus, a project must set aside at least (i) 15 percent of total units for very low-income households, (ii) 24 percent of total units for low-income households, or (iii) 44 percent of for -sale units for moderate -income households. Levels of bonus density between 35 percent and 50 percent are granted on a sliding scale. The City's currently adopted Density Bonus Ordinance is no longer consistent with State law and must be amended to comply with new statutory requirement. Implementing Action 3.1.2 of Section 4: Housing Plan outlines the City's plan to maintain compliance with State legislation. Density Bonus Programs The currently adopted density bonuses are eligible for developments which contain five or more dwelling units and meet the requirements outlined in Chapter 20.32 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code. Units that are not eligible for density bonus include developments where affordable housing is required under the provisions of Title 19. When a development which meets the requirements, density bonuses are applicable as shown in Table 3-3 and Table 3-4 below for different income categories. Developments which meet the requirements for Senior housing will be entitled to a density bonus of twenty percent of the number of senior housing units.

When requested, the City may grant the following (inclusive of handicap and guest parking): • Zero to one bedroom: one on-site parking space per unit; or • Two or more bedrooms: two on-site parking spaces per unit. In addition to a request for parking incentives, an applicant who meets the density bonus requirements may also submit a proposal for a reduction in the site development standards or architectural design requirements; approval of mixed-use zoning in conjunction with the housing development; other regulatory incentive proposed by the client or the City that will result in identifiable, financially sufficient, and actual cost reductions; and/or a direct financial contribution granted by the Council at its sole discretion. Additional Incentives may also apply for developments with a childcare component, requirements and applicable incentives are outlines in detailed in the City's Municipal Code Section 20.32.060. Incentives and density bonuses allow for increased opportunity and feasibility for the production of affordable housing in a community, the City of Newport Beach's Incentives and Density Bonus programs are comparable to similar Southern California communities and are a constraint to the development of housing for all income levels. Residential Development Standards Citywide, outside the specific plan areas, the City regulates the type, location, density, and scale of residential development primarily through the Zoning Code. The following summarizes the City's existing residential zoning districts: • Residential -Agricultural (R -A) — Residential -Agricultural is intended to provide for single lots appropriate for detached single -unit residential dwelling units and light farming. Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-12 (DRAFT NQ_Vr_nnQro 20-24 JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT • Single -Unit Residential (R-1) — Single -Unit Residential is intended to provide for a range of detached single -unit residential dwelling units on single lots. This land use designation does not include condominiums or cooperative housing. • Two -Unit Residential, Balboa Island (R -BI) — Two -Unit Residential Balboa Island is intended to provide for a maximum of two residential dwelling units, or duplexes. This is designation is reserved to single lots on Balboa Island. • Two -Unit Residential (R-2) — Two -Unit Residential is intended to provide for single lots appropriate for a maximum of two residential dwelling units, or duplexes. • Multiple Residential (RM) — Multiple Residential is intended to provide for area appropriate for multi -unit residential developments containing attached or detached dwelling units. • Medium Density Residential (RMD) — Medium Density Residential is intended to provide for areas appropriate for medium density residential developments containing attached or detached units. • Mixed -Use Vertical (MU -V) — Mixed -Use Vertical is intended to provide for area appropriate for the development of mixed-use structures that vertically include residential dwelling units. Residential dwelling units are located above the ground floor, which includes office, restaurant, retail, and similar nonresidential uses. • Mixed -Use Mariners' Mile (MU -MM)— Mixed -Use Mariners' Mile is intended to provide for areas appropriate for commercial and residential uses. Mariners' Mile is located on the inland side of Coast Highway in the Mariners' Mile Corridor. Properties that front Coast Highway may only be developed for nonresidential purposes. Properties to the rear of the commercial frontage may be developed for freestanding nonresidential uses, multi -unit residential dwelling units, or mixed- use structures that integrate residential above the ground floor with nonresidential uses on the ground floor. • Mixed -Use Cannery Village and 151h Street (MU-CV/15th St.) — Mixed -Use Cannery Village and 15th Street is intended to establish a cohesive district or neighborhood containing multi -unit residential dwelling units with clusters of mixed-use and/or commercial structures on interior lots of Cannery Village and 15th Street on Balboa Peninsula.

Residential uses and overnight accommodations are allowed above the ground floor and to the rear of uses along the street frontage. Mixed -Use or nonresidential structures are required on lots at street intersections and are allowed, but not required, on other lots. • Mixed -Use Water (MU -W1) — Mixed -Use Water is intended to be applied to waterfront properties along the Mariners' Mile Corridor in which nonresidential uses and residential dwelling units may be intermixed. A minimum of 50 percent of the allowed square footage in a mixed-use development shall be used for nonresidential uses in which marine -related and victor -serving land uses are mixed. An approved site development review is required prior to any development to Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-13 (DRAFT NO-VEn RPR 20��JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT ensure uses are fully integrated and that potential impacts from their differing activities are fully mitigated. Design of nonresidential space to facilitate marine -related uses is encouraged. • Mixed -Use Water (MU -W2) —This second Mixed -Use Water designation is intended to apply to waterfront properties in which marine -related uses may be intermixed with general commercial, visitor -related commercial and residential dwelling units on the upper floors. The City's Zoning Code also regulates the development on land through minimum and maximum standards on lot size, lot width and depth, setbacks, and on lot coverage and floor -area ratio (FAR).

Site Coverage and lll�►oor Area Limit Site coverage and Floor Area Limit (FAL) requirements maintain mass and intensity of a use for residential uses. The Newport Beach Zoning Code defines site coverage as the percentage of a site covered by Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-15 (DRAFT NOVEMBER 2-0-24 JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT structures and accessory structures, as well as decks that exceed 30 inches in height. Maximum site coverage standards limit the footprint of a building and calculates it as a percentage between the ground floor area of a building and the net area of a lot. The FAL refers to the gross floor area allowed on a residential lot and is determined by multiplying the allowed buildable area of the lot times the applicable multiplier for the lot. FAL requirements limit the total usable floor area to limit the bulk of a building to the land, other buildings, and public facilities. Maximum Building Heigh, Maximum building heights are set and defined in the City's Zoning Code to maintain symmetry and compatibility between existing and proposed developments. The height is measured as the vertical distance from the grade of the pad to the highest part of the structure, including protective guardrails and parapet walls. The height limit may be increased within specific areas through the adoption of a Planned Community Development, a specific plan, a planned development permit, a coastal development permit in the coastal zone, or a site development review. The deviation in maximum height limit requires approval of a discretionary action. • R -A, R-1, R -BI, and R-2 Zoning Districts have height limits of 24 feet for structures with flat roofs (including guard rails and parapet walls) and 29 feet for sloped roofs. A discretionary approval may permit height up to 28 feet for flat roofs and 33 feet for sloped roofs. • RM and RMD Zoning Districts have height limits of 28 feet for structures with flat roofs and 33 feet for sloped roofs. The height of the structure may be increased to 32 feet for foot roof and 37 feet for sloped roofs through discretionary approval. Properties located in the Height (H) Overlay District may increase height limits to 40 feet for flat roofs and 45 feet for sloped roofs. • Planned Community Districts may also propose and regulate their own height limits. The City's building height requirements do not prohibit residential developments from reaching the maximum density on varying lands/sites, it therefore is not a constraint to the development of housing, specifically housing affordable to low and very low-income households. Additionally, the City's Density Bonus programs provides incentives for the development of affordable housing, including a reduction in the site development standards (e.g., site coverage, setbacks, increased height up to the maximum allowed, reduced lot sizes, and/or parking requirements. Additionally, the City has identified sites in the RM and MU zones (listed in Appendix B) which can accommodate a portion of the City's RHNA allocation. The heights identified for the Multiple Residential (RM) and Mixed -Use (MU) Zones are considered base height limits and can be altered through a discretionary approval process. • However, most of the denser residential development projects are within planned communities where the developer sets the identified height limitation. Examples of this include: • Uptown Newport Planned Community Zoning District (PC -58), which allows for heights up to 150 feet Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-16 (DRAFT WQ_Vr_nnQro�^��JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT • Residential Overlay within the Newport Place Planned Community Zoning District (PC -11), which has a base height limit of 55 feet that can be increased up to the maximum allowable under Federal Aviation Regulation (FAR) Part 77 • San Joaquin Plaza Planned Community Zoning District (PC -19) allows heights up to 69 feet The City will establish housing overlay zones that will apply to all opportunity sites in each focus area. Like the Residential Overlay within the Newport Place Planned Community Zoning District (PC -11) and other planned communities, the future housing overlay will establish increased height limits appropriate to accommodate the proposed densities. The details of the housing overlay zones are yet to be determined. Usable Open Space The City's Zoning Code defines Usable Open Space as an outdoor or enclosed area on the ground, roof, balcony, deck, porch, or terrace, used for outdoor living, active or passive recreation, pedestrian access, or landscaping. This does not include parking facilities, driveways, utility, or service areas, required setbacks, and sloped or submerged land. All residential districts in Newport Beach have a maximum site coverage to allow for open space. Mixed -Use districts require 75 square feet per dwelling unit of common open space and 5 percent of the gross floor area of private open space for each unit. The City's usable open spaces requirements do not prohibit residential developments from reaching the maximum density on varying lands/sites, it therefore is not a constraint to the development of housing, specifically housing affordable to low and very low-income households. Additionally, the City's Density Bonus programs provides incentives for the development of affordable housing, including a reduction in the site development standards (e.g., site coverage, setbacks, increased height up to the maximum allowed, reduced lot sizes, and/or parking requirements. Adequate off-street parking shall be provided to avoid street overcrowding and maintain parking opportunities for the public to visit the coast. This is maintained through the City's parking requirements for each housing unit type, as shown in Table 3-7. Parking requirements may add to the development cost of a property and project as spaces and garage parking create additional costs and remove potentially livable space.

As shown in Table 3-7, the City's parking requirements are similar to those throughout the region and are based on generation rates by use type. Multiple family parking requirements are not overly restrictive and the City may grant exceptions to these standards through state -required density bonus provisions and other provisions in the Municipal Code. As part of the city's rezone program to accommodate future housing growth, development standards, such as parking requirements, will be evaluated to potentially provide additional incentives, concessions reductions or modifications, as appropriate The City's Density Bonus program also provides incentives for the development of affordable housing, including a reduction in the site development standards (e.g., site coverage, setbacks, increased height up to the maximum allowed, reduced lot sizes, and/or parking requirements. Additionally, the City has not denied any residential projects based upon a lack of required parking. Parking has also not been identified by prospective residential development proponents as a constraint. If, however, parking is identified as an issue, then the City's Zoning Code offers alternative means of compliance through off-site parking, demonstrative a reduced -parking demand, or a shared -parking arrangement. This is accomplished through review and approval of a use permit (see NBMC Sections 20.40.100 (Off -Site Parking) and 20.40.110 (Adjustments to Off -Street Parking Requirements) or their successor sections. Furthermore, parking standards can be modified through projects taking advantage of a density bonus, if deemed necessary. Variety of Housing Types Permitted Housing Element Law requires jurisdictions to identify sites to be made available through zoning and development standards in order to facilitate development of a variety of housing types for all socioeconomic levels of the population. Housing types include single -unit dwellings, multi -unit housing, accessory dwelling units, factory -built housing, mobile homes, employee and agricultural work housing, transitional and supportive housing, single -room occupancy units (SROs), and housing for persons with disabilities. Table 3-8 below identifies the various housing types permitted within each residential and Table 3-9 identified housing types permitted in mixed-use zoning district in Newport Beach.

This may be referred to as a "granny flat," "in-law unit," or "carriage house." An ADU must include a kitchen, a full bathroom, a living area, and a separate entrance. The Newport Beach Zoning Code includes efficiency units and manufactured homes as ADUs. Junior ADUs (JADUs) are defined by the City's Municipal Code as a dwelling unit accessory to and entirely contained within an existing or proposed single -unit dwelling. A JADU may not be greater than 500 square feet, and it must either include its own sanitation facilities or share facilities with the single -unit dwelling. A JADU must also include its own efficiency kitchen. I Alm-Wnrk Ilnif Live -Work Units refer to structures that include both a commercial and a single dwelling unit. Commercial uses are generally located on the ground floor, with the dwelling unit located one to two stories above. Short -Term Lodging Short -Term Lodging refers to a dwelling unit that is rented or leased as a single housekeeping unit for 30 days or less. Single -Room Occupancy (SRO) Within the Zoning Code. SROs fall under the classification of Visitor Accommodations and are defined as buildings with six or more guest rooms without kitchen facilities in individual rooms, or kitchen facilities for the exclusive use of guests, and which are also the primary residences of the hotel guests. SROs are permitted in all commercial (CC, CM, CN, CV) and office (OG, OM, OR) zoning districts with the approval of a conditional use Dermit. To facilitate the develoament of SROs within these districts. the Citv will not develop, nor impose, any special set of conditions or use restrictions on SROs; instead, each application would be evaluated individually and approved based upon its own merits and circumstances. Additionally, the Housing Element includes a Policy Action 30 to encourage and facilitate the development of at least one SRO develoament. or the Dreservation and rehabilitation of an SRO develoament. within the Planning Period. Residential Care FacilitiesGeneral Licensed (7 or ore Oereenc) On January 22, 2008, the City Council approved Ordinance No. 2008-5 ("Ordinance") with the intent of maintaining zoning protections for residential districts, while benefiting disabled persons who wished to live in those districts. This Ordinance balances the protections granted under the federal Fair Housing Act, Fair Housing Act Amendments (42 U.S.C. Section 3601) and other state and federal laws (i.e. Americans with Disabilities Act) to persons with disabilities, while also ensuring the residential character of the neighborhood is maintained. As defined by the City, Residential Care Facilities provide housing for individuals with a disability and are commonly referred to as group homes, sober living homes, and state licensed alcoholism or drug abuse recovery or treatment facilities. Facilities that provide treatment services are required to be licensed by the State of California Department of Social Services or Department of Health Care Services ("DHCS"). Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-22 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Unlicensed facilities are not allowed to provide treatment services, but rather are meant to provide an interim environment between rehabilitation and stabilized living. Depending on the number of persons residing within the facility and treatment provided, residential care facilities are further classified as follows: • General Licensed (Seven or More Persons) • General Unlicensed (Seven or More Persons) • Limited Licensed (Six or Fewer Persons) • Small Unlicensed (Six or Fewer Persons) The purpose of the Ordinance is to allow disabled persons to live in a residential setting while ensuring that the residential care facilities are operated in a manner consistent with the residential character of surrounding neighborhoods, do not recreate an institutional environment that would defeat the purpose of community-based care, and that residential care facilities serving the disabled are operating in compliance with City and state laws/regulations. To achieve these purposes and to provide disabled persons with an equal opportunity to use and enjoy a dwelling in the City's residential zoning districts, the City treats licensed residential care facilities for six or fewer persons as single -unit residence permitted by -right in all residential -zones (R -A, R-1, R -BI, R-2, RM, and RM D). Also, residential care facilities for seven or more persons and unlicensed residential care facilities are permitted in the following zoning districts, with a Conditional Use Permit: • Residential Districts— RM and RMD zoning districts. • Planned Community Districts—Property development regulations applicable to residential districts, related to residential care facilities, shall also apply to the corresponding portions of the PC Districts. The location and permitting requirements applicable to larger and unlicensed residential care facilities are intended to avoid overconcentration so as to maintain the residential character of a neighborhood, which if lost would have an adverse effect on the welfare of the individuals' receiving services from the residential care facility and defeat the purpose of community-based recovery. The American Planning Association's Policy Guide on Community Residences, which supports residential care facilities, states that residential care facilities should be scattered throughout residential districts rather than being concentrated on any single block or in any single neighborhood. If several residential care facilities are located next to one another, or are placed on the same block, the ability of the residential care facilities to achieve normalization and community integration would be compromised. Also, the Departments of Justice and Housing Urban Development have stated that a neighborhood composed largely of residential care facilities could adversely affect individuals with disabilities and would be inconsistent with the objective of integrating persons with disabilities into the community. The California Research Bureau similarly found that facilities should be scattered throughout residential districts, and facilities so densely clustered as to recreate an institutional environment would defeat the purpose of community-based care. Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-23 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Newport Beach has a significant number of residential care facilities compared to other communities. According to DHCS and City records, there are currently 21 state -licensed residential treatment facilities and an additional 8 City -permitted unlicensed residential facilities in Newport Beach, a community which as of 2019 had a total resident population of 85,694. As a measure of comparison, there are currently only 8 state -licensed residential treatment facilities in Sacramento which had a total residential population of 500,930 people, as of 2019. As set forth above, the City has a significant number of residential care facilities, when compared to other cities, and, under the current regulations, there are significant portions of the City that can accommodate additional facilities. In addition, the City's has a well-defined Reasonable Accommodation procedure, which further ensures individuals with disabilities are protected. Specifically, Section 20.52.070 of the Zoning Code provides procedures for obtaining reasonable accommodation from the City's zoning and land use regulations, policies, and practices when necessary to provide an individual with a disability an equal opportunity to use and enjoy a dwelling. With a reasonable accommodation, a group of disabled individuals can reside in any district zoned for residential use within the City. Section 20.52.070 ensures that reasonable accommodation requests are processed efficiently without imposing costs on the applicant. The City does not assess a fee for reasonable accommodation requests. Although a public hearing is required, the matter is heard before a Hearing Officer ratherthan the Planning Commission, which helps establish an apolitical and more objective decision-making authority, and results in a more expedited processing. As described in more detail in the Reasonable Accommodation Section of the Housing Element, the findings are based on the objective need to provide an individual with a disability an equal opportunity to use and enjoy a dwelling. To date, the City has approved three conditional use permits and six reasonable accommodations for general and unlicensed residential care facilities, which shows that these processes are not a significant constraint. It is also important to note that these types of facilities are the only groups not living as a single housekeeping unit that may be established in a residential district. Other types of group residential uses occupied by two or more persons not living as a single housekeeping unit (e.g. dormitories, fraternities, sororities, and private residential clubs) are not permitted within residential districts. By providing an opportunity to establish residences with a conditional use permit or reasonable accommodation to disabled groups, the Municipal Code gives more favorable treatment to disabled groups not living as single housekeeping units than it gives to non -disabled groups that are not living as a single housekeeping unit. Therefore, groups of disabled individuals are distinguished only to the extent they are treated preferentially. While not explicitly reauired by State law. the conditional use Dermit reauirement for residential care facilities for 7 or more persons could be considered a fair housing issue. Policy Action 3P has been ink-uddincluded in Section 4 Policy Program to ensure the development standards for larger residential care facilities in the Zoning Code will be evaluated to ensure State fair housing laws are met for residential care facilities of 7 or more persons. Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-24 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT General Licensed Residential Care Facilities provide a single housekeeping unit for individuals with a disability who reside at the facility. There may be 7 or more individuals residing at the facility, but they each reside in separate dwelling units. The facility may include a place, site or building, orgroups of places, sites, or buildings, licensed by the State. Residential Care Facilities — General Unlicensed (Seven or More Persons) General Unlicensed Residential Care Facilities include a place, site or building, or groups of places, sites, or buildings, which are not licensed by the State and provide housing to 7 or more individuals with disabilities in separate dwelling units. The facility is not required by law to be licenses by the State. "Iential ` ' imited +_icensed (6 or lersons) Limited Licensed Residential Care Facilities provide care, services, and/or treatment in a community residential setting for six or fewer individuals. Individuals may include adults, children, or adults and children. The facility shall be considered a single housekeeping unit and must therefore be in compliance with all land use and property development regulations applicable to single housekeeping units. Residential Care Facilities — Small Unlicensed (6 or Fewer Persons) Small Unlicensed Residential Care Facilities include a place, site or building, or groups or places, sites, or buildings in which 6 or fewer individuals with disabilities reside in separate dwelling units. The facility is not required by law to be licensed by the State. Parolee -Probationer Home Parolee -Probationer Home refers to a structure or dwelling unit which houses 2 or more parolees - probationers who are unrelated by blood, marriage, or legal adoption. The parolees -probationers reside here in exchange for monetary or nonmonetary consideration given and/or paid by the parolee - probationer and/or any public or private entity or person on behalf of the parolee -probationer. The residential structure may be operated by an individual, a for-profit entity, or a nonprofit entity. Mobile Home nark A Mobile Home refers to a transportable trailer that is certified under the National Manufactured Housing Construction and Safety Standards Act of 1974. The mobile home is over 8 feet in width and 40 feet in length and may or may not include a permanent foundation. A mobile home on a permanent foundation is considered a single -unit dwelling. rnnvalecr_ent 14nmr Convalescent Home refers to an establishment that provides 24-hour care for persons requiring regular medical attention. A convalescent home may be referred to as a "nursing home" or "hospice." This facility does not provide emergency medical services or surgical services. Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-25 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach - 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT o Common Interest Development Common Interest Developments include community apartment projects, condominium projects, planned developments, and stock cooperative. 'armuinrkar Nni►cinr Farmworkers are considered a special needs interest group by HCD. Farmworkers are traditionally defined as people whose primary incomes are earned through permanent or seasonal agricultural labor. Farmworkers are generally considered to have special housing needs due to their limited income and the often -unstable nature of their employment. In addition, farmworker households tend to have high rates of poverty, live disproportionately in housing that is in the poorest condition, have extremely high rates of overcrowding, and have low homeownership rates. There is a total of 1,772 farmworkers in the County of Orange, though few may reside in Newport Beach the City must consider the housing needs of this community. The Newport Beach Municipal Code does not explicitly define Farmworker Housing or outline it as a permitted use in residential or nonresidential zones. Policy Action 30 of the Section 4: Housing Plan outlines the City's strategy to update the Municipal Code in accordance with state legislation. Supportive Housing California State Assembly Bill 2162 amended Section 65583, Planning and zoning law to specify that supportive housing is a residential use of property, subject only to those restrictions that apply to other residential dwellings of the same type in the same zone. The City of Newport Beach's Municipal Code does not explicitly define Supportive Housing or identify zones where is it is a permitted use. Policy Action 7B of the Section 4: Housing Plan outlines the City's strategy to update the Municipal Code in accordance with state legislation. Transitional Housing The City of Newport Beach defines Transitional Housing as rental housing operating under program requirements that call for the termination of assistance and recirculation of the assisted unit to another eligible program recipient program at some predetermined future point in time, which shall be no less than six months. Transitional housing that is provided in single-, two- or multi -unit dwelling units, group residential, parolee -probationer home, residential care facilities, or boarding house uses shall be permitted, conditionally permitted or prohibited in the same manner as the other single-, two-, or multi -unit dwelling units, group residential, parolee -probationer home, residential care facilities, or boarding house uses under this code. The City of Newport Beach's Municipal Code does not explicitly identify Transitional Housing as a permitted use within the appropriate zones as required by state law. Policy Action 713 of the Section 4: Housing Plan outlines the City s strategy to update the Municipal Code in accordance with state legislation. Emeraencv Shelters State Law existing law authorizes a political subdivision to allow persons unable to obtain housing to occupy designated public facilities, as defined, during the period of a shelter crisis. Existing law provides that certain state and local laws, regulations, and ordinances are suspended during a shelter crisis, to the extent that strict compliance would in any way prevent, hinder, or delay the mitigation of the effects of Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-26 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT the shelter crisis. The City of Newport beach permits Emergency shelters in the OA — Office Airport zoning district and the PI — Private Institutions Coastal zoning district. Properties designated for PI are distributed throughout the City, but primarily located along major transportation corridors and offer easy access to public transportation. The PI zoning district is intended to provide for areas appropriate for privately owned facilities that serve the public, including places for assembly/meeting facilities (e.g., religious assembly), congregate care homes, cultural institutions, health care facilities, marinas, museums, private schools, yacht clubs, and comparable facilities. There are over 44 parcels totaling approximately 135 acres in the proposed PI zoning district. Several of the existing uses on these properties are religious assembly uses, many of which consist of large campuses. Given the high land costs in the City, these religious assembly facilities could provide the best means to facilitate the development and management of emergency shelters in the City. Additionally, properties designated for OA are located within three large blocks east of John Wayne Airport, west of Birch Street, north of Bristol Street/73 Freeway, and south of MacArthur Boulevard. These properties are also located along major transportation corridors and offer easy access to public transportation. The AO zoning district is intended to provide for areas appropriate for the development of properties adjoining the John Wayne Airport for uses that support or benefit from airport operations. These may include corporate and professional offices; automobile sales, rental and service; aviation sales and service; hotels; and accessory retail, restaurant, and service uses. There are over 56 parcels totaling approximately 54 acres in the AO zoning district. Several of the existing uses on these properties are low and medium density professional office buildings, many of which are aging and offer affordable rents compared to most other parts of the City. These properties should provide realistic opportunities for reuse of these structures for the development and management of emergency shelters in the City. Combined, the PI and AO zoning districts consist of over 98 parcels and 189 acres. By allowing emergency shelters as permitted uses within these districts, adequate sites are available for the potential development of emergency shelters in the City. AB 101 states that "The Legislature finds and declares that Low Barrier Navigation Center developments are essential tools for alleviating the homelessness crisis -." Low Barrier Navigation Centers are defined as a Housing First, low -barrier, service -enriched shelter focused on moving people into permanent housing that provides temporary living facilities while case managers connect individuals experiencing homelessness to income, public benefits, health services, shelter, and housing. Low Barrier Navigation Centers are required as a use by right in areas zoned for mixed uses and nonresidential zones permitting multi -unit uses if it meets specified requirements. The City of Newport Beach's Municipal Code does not address Low Barrier Navigations Centers by definition. A program will be adopted to ensure the City's development standards allow Low Barrier Navigation Centers By -Right in all zones that permit mixed -uses and non-residential uses. Policy Action 7A of the Section 4: Housing Plan outlines the City's strategy to update the Municipal Code in accordance with state legislation. Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-27 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) L City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Planned Community District The Planned Community (PC) District is intended allow for a coordinated variety of uses and allows projects to benefit from large-scale community building. PC Districts allow for greater flexibility and less restrictive development regulations, while also maintaining compliance with the intent and provisions of the Zoning Code. The Newport Beach Municipal Code states that a PC District may include various types of uses given they are consistent with the General Plan through the adoption of a development plan and text materials that identify land use relationships and associated development standards. PC Districts allow for large scale housing projects on land areas no less than 25 acres of unimproved land area or 10 acres of improved land area; however, the City Council may waive the minimum acreage requirements. Improved land area refers to parcels of land with existing permanent structures occupying at least 10 percent of the total PC District. The subject property must be reclassified as a PC District and a Development Plan must be filed with the City to initiate the development process. The Development Plans are reviewed by the Director, scheduled for a public hearing before the Planning Commission for a recommendation, and approved by the City Council. A Planned Community District must also go through an environmental review. The Development Plan must contain: • A land use map containing the distribution, location, and extent of uses proposed • Land use tables designating permitted uses • Development standards • Protection measures for landforms and public views • Sustainable improvement standards • Location and extent of essential facilities including circulation and transportation, drainage, energy, sewage and waste disposal, and water • Development standards for conservation, development, and utilization of natural resources • A program of implementation measures, programs, regulations, and public works projects • A topographical map to illustrate the character of the terrain and condition of existing vegetation • A summary of the relationship between the proposed development plan and the goals, policies, and actions of the General Plan Growth Management Measures Growth management measures are techniques used by a government to regulate the rate, amount, and type of development. Growth management measures allow cities to grow responsibly and orderly, however, if overly restricted can produce constraints to the development of housing, including accessible and affordable housing. On November 7, 2000, the Newport Beach electorate approved Measure S. Measure S amended the Newport Beach City Charter by adding Section 423, which requires voter approval of certain amendments Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-28 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT of the Newport Beach General Plan. Therefore, an amendment shall not take effect unless it has been submitted to the voters and approved by a majority of those voting on it. Charter Section 423 encourages the City Council to adopt implementing guidelines that are consistent with its purpose and intent. In the case of Charter Section 423, an amendment to the General Plan is defined as any proposed amendment of the General Plan that is first considered and/ or approved by the City Council subsequent to December 15, 2000 and that increases the number of peak hour trips (traffic), floor area (intensity), or dwelling units (density) when compared to the General Plan prior to approval. ,.,,, –.4... The City Council determines if an amendment requires voter approval pursuant to Section 423, based on the following conditions: • The Amendment modifies the allowed use(s) of the property or area that is the subject of the Amendment such that the proposed use(s) generate(s) more than one hundred morning or evening peak hour trips than are generated by the allowed use(s) before the Amendment; or • The Amendment authorizes an increase in floor area for the property or area that is the subject of the Amendment that exceeds forty thousand (40,000) square feet when compared to the General Plan before approval of the Amendment; or • The Amendment authorizes an increase in the number of dwelling units for the property or area that is the subject of the Amendment that exceeds one hundred {-99(100) dwelling units when compared to the General Plan before approval of the Amendment; or • The increase in morning or evening peak hour trips, floor area or dwelling units resulting from the Amendment when added to eighty percent (80%) of the increases in morning or evening peak hour trips, floor area or dwelling units resulting from Prior Amendments (see definition in Section 2J exceeds one or more of the voter approval thresholds in Section 423 as specified in Subsection 1, 2 or 3. If the City Council determines a General Plan Land Use Element Amendment requires voter approval after approving the Amendment, the City Council then adopts a resolution calling an election on the Amendment. The City Council schedules the election at the next regular municipal election, as specified by the City Charter. The City Attorney then prepares an impartial analysis of the Amendment, which contains information about the Amendment, any related project or land use approval, and the environmental analysis conducted that will help the electorate make an informed decision. In the absence of an ordinance or Charter provision that establishes a procedure for submittal of arguments or rebuttals relative to City measures, the City Council will adopt a resolution that authorizes the filing of arguments and rebuttals in accordance with the general procedures specified in the Elections Code. It is important to understand that Charter Section 423 only applies to General Plan amendments. Individual housing development projects that do not require a General Plan amendment are already accommodated within the General Plan and zoning framework. They would not be subject to Charter Section 423 and would never require a vote of the electorate. Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-29 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) L City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT If a housing development project requires a General Plan amendment, any unit and peak hour traffic increases added to the project through the Density Bonus process are not counted toward Charter Section 423 thresholds and a determination whether a vote is required. Ultimately projects that require a vote of the electorate pursuant to Charter Section 423 may require additional costs and be subject to delays due to the election process that may yield uncertain election results. The City will implement Charter Section 423 when it amends the Land Use Element of its General Plan to implement Policy Actions 1A through 1F provided in Section 4 of this Housing Element. The increases in housing units and the peak hour traffic to accommodate the City's high RHNA allocation will exceed Charter Section 423 thresholds requiring a vote of the electorate. However, Charter Section 423 includes a statement that it shall not apply if State or Federal law precludes a vote of the electorate on the amendment. As of the adoption of this Housing Element, it is unclear if the State RHNA mandate to accommodate the City's RHNA allocation would preclude a vote pursuant to Charter Section 423. It is the duty of the City Council to place the increases in housing and the traffic generated before the voters of Newport Beach consistent with Charter Section 423. The vote will be scheduled in accordance with the California Elections Code and the City Charter after the City Council carefully reviews and approves the Land Use Element amendment and Zoning Strategies that support Policy Actions 1A through 1G. The City will prepare an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) prior to acting on the Land Use Element amendment and Zoning Strategies. In 2006, the City adopted its comprehensive General Plan Update adding 1,166 housing units within its Land Use Element. The update included the housing unit increases to accommodate the City's share of the 4th RNHA cycle. In accordance with Charter Section 423, the update was submitted to the voters and the measure passed. For the 6th cycle Housing Element, like the 2006 vote, the City will initiate an election and pay for all costs associated with the ballot measure. The discussion within Housing Goal #1 in Section 4 details the milestones involved in the Land Use Element amendment vote process. The City may choose to submit multiple ballot measures. If the ballot measure passes, Charter Section 423 would not be an impediment in any way to housing development projects supported by the Land Use amendment and Zoning implementation strategies stemming from this Housing Element. The increases in housing units and their related peak hour traffic would also not count against future General Plan amendment applications thereby reducing the impediment that Charter Section 423 represents to future housing developments needing a subsequent General Plan Amendment in the future. Making any changes to Charter Section 423 is complicated and uncertain. To attempt modifications that would exempt housing units from potentially requiring a vote is not a viable option. Placing a Charter amendment before the voters would require City Council action that would be contrary to the will of the people as expressed through Measure S in 2000 that resulted in Charter Section 423. Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-30 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) L City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Based upon public comments received during the preparation of this Housing Element, there is no public support to amend Charter Section 423 to accommodate the housing necessary to satisfy the State RHNA mandate. The City Council publicly debated the prospects of amending Charter Section 423 through its review of this Housing Element, and it is universally believed that placing such a Charter amendment before the voters would be a waste of resources. Additionally, any effort to potentially amend Charter Section 423 would potentially and unnecessarily delay the implementation of this Housing Element. It could create voter fatigue reducing the prospects for success of a vote for the required Land Use Element Amendment to implement this Housing Element pursuant to Charter Section 423. Short -Term Lodging Ordinance Short-term lodging refers to the rental and leasing of a dwelling unit to a single household for less than 30 consecutive days. Short-term lodging is predominantly used by tourists to the City and the homeowner may or may not reside on the property. The City of Newport Beach adopted Ordinance 2020-15 on July 15, 2020, which set permitting regulations for short-term lodging throughout Newport Beach. The Ordinance allows short-term lodging in all residential districts in the City with the approval of a permit and related fees. Ordinance 2020-15 is not considered a constraint to housing in the City as the intent is to control short-term lodging and collect Transient Occupancy Tax. The City provides information online for interested homeowners, Frequently Asked Questions, and permit application processes. Specific Plans The purpose of a Specific Plan is to implement the goals and objectives of a city's General Plan in a more focused and detailed manner that is area and project specific. The Specific Plan promotes consistency and an enhanced aesthetic level throughout the project community. Specific Plans contain their own development standards and requirements that may be more restrictive than those defined for the city as a whole. Santa Ana Heights The Santa Ana Heights Community is located to the north of Newport Beach between East Side Costa Mesa and the Upper Newport Bay. The area was previously within County of Orange's permitting jurisdiction and the redevelopment project area was designated to eliminate blight. The land has since been annexed into Newport Beach. The principal objectives of the Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan include: • Encourage the upgrading of existing residential neighborhoods and business development areas • Ensure well-planned business park and commercial developments which are adequately buffered from adjacent residential neighborhoods • Encourage the consolidation of smaller contiguous lots in the business park area • Ensure that business park and residential traffic are separated to the maximum extent possible, while minimizing impact upon existing parcels Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-31 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) L City of Newport Beach - 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT • Ensure adequate provision of public works facilities as development occurs • Enhance equestrian opportunities with the residential equestrian neighborhood • Enhance the overall aesthetic character of the community The Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan identifies design and landscaping guidelines in Section 20.90.030 of the Newport Beach Zoning Code; the development standards are provided in Table 3-64. Table 3-86 also identifies the housing types permitted in each zoning district. Zoning district designations within the project area include the following: • Open Space and Recreational District: SP -7 (OS/R) - Open Space and Recreational District is intended to establish the long-term use and viability of the Newport Beach Golf Course. • Residential Equestrian District: SP -7 (REQ) Residential Equestrian District is intended to provide for the development and maintenance of a single -unit residential neighborhood in conjunction with limited equestrian uses. The zoning district is intended to maintain a rural character with an equestrian theme. • Residential Kennel District: SP -7 (RK) - Residential Kennel District is intended to provide for the development of a single -unit residential neighborhood in conjunction with commercial kennel businesses. • Residential Single -Family District: SP -7 (RSF) - Residential Single -Family District is intended to provide for the development of medium density single -unit detached residential neighborhoods. Permitted uses should complement and be compatible with residential neighborhoods. • Residential Multiple -Family District: SP -7 (RMF) - Residential Multiple -Family District is intended to provide for the development of high-density multi -unit residential neighborhoods with a moderate amount of open space. Permitted uses should complement and be compatible with residential neighborhoods. • Horticultural Nursery District: SP -7 (HN) - Horticultural Nursery District is intended to ensure the long-term use and viability of the horticultural nursery uses located along Orchard Drive in the western section of Santa Ana Heights. • General Commercial District: SP -7 (GC) - General Commercial District is intended to provide regulations for the commercial areas along South Bristol Street and ensure the continuation of commercial uses which offer a wide range of goods and services to both the surrounding residential and business communities. This district is intended to promote the upgraded aesthetic image of the community and reduce conflicts between commercial and residential uses. • Business Park District: SP -7 (BP) - Business Park District is intended to provide for the development and maintenance of professional and administrative offices, commercial uses, specific uses related to product development, and limited light industrial uses. The district shall protect the adjacent residential uses through regulation of building mass and height, landscape buffers, and architectural design features. Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-32 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach - - - 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT • Professional and Administrative Office District: SP -7 (PA) - Professional and Administrative Office District is intended to provide for the development of moderate intensity professional and administrative office uses and related uses on sites with large landscaped open spaces and off- street parking facilities. This district is intended to be located along heavily trafficked streets or adjacent to commercial or industrial districts. This district may also be used to buffer residential areas. • Professional, Administrative, and Commercial Consolidation District: SP -7 (PACC) - Professional, Administrative, and Commercial Consolidation District is intended to provide for the development of professional and administrative office uses and commercial uses on lots located between South Bristol Street and Zenith Avenue in a manner which ensures lot consolidation and vehicular access to and from South Bristol Street. • Planned Development Combining District (PD) - Planned Development Combining District is intended to provide a method for land to be developed using design features which take advantage of modern site planning techniques to produce an integrated development project amongst existing and potential development of the surrounding neighborhoods. Housing for Persons with Disabilities Both the Federal Fair Housing Act and the California Fair Employment and Housing Act direct local governments to make reasonable accommodations (that is, modifications or exceptions) to their zoning laws and other land use regulations when such accommodations may be necessary to afford disabled persons an equal opportunity to use and enjoy a dwelling. The Housing Element Update must also include programs that remove constraints or provide reasonable accommodations for housing designed for persons with disabilities. The analysis of constraints must touch upon each of three general categories: 1) zoning/land use; 2) permit and processing procedures; and 3) building codes and other factors, including design, location and discrimination, which could limit the availability of housing for disabled persons. Keasonable Accommodatiot Reasonable accommodation in the land use and zoning context means providing individuals with disabilities or developers of housing for personsep4e with disabilities, flexibia+tydisabilities, flexibility in the application of land use and zoning and building regulations, policies, practices and procedures, or even waiving certain requirements, when it is necessary to eliminate barriers to housing opportunities. For example, it may be reasonable to accommodate requests from persons with disabilities to waive a setback requirement or other standard of the Zoning Code to ensure that homes are accessible for the mobility impaired. Whether a particular modification is reasonable depends on the circumstances. Section 20.25.070 (Reasonable Accommodation) of the Citv's Municipal Code provides a procedure and sets standards for disabled persons seeking a reasonable accommodation in the provision of housing and is intended to comply with federal and state fair housing laws. A request for reasonable accommodation may be made by any person with a disability, their representative, or a developer or provider of housing for individuals with a disability, and a reasonable accommodation may Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-33 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT be aaoroved only for the benefit of one or more individuals with a disabilitv. Section 20.52.070 ensures that reasonable accommodation requests are processed efficiently without imposing costs on the applicant. The City does not assess a fee for reasonable accommodation requests. Although a public hearing is required, the matter is heard before a Hearing Officer rather than the Planning Commission, which helps establish an apolitical and more objective decision-making authority, and results in a more expedited processing. Once an applicant requests reasonable accommodation via all appropriate forms and submittals (as outline in Section 20.25.070 of the Newoort Beach Municipal Code). the followine actions may be taken by the Hearing Office: -- - - -- - - ---01 ---- -- -11 - - -- - - --- - - -- - - -- - -- - - - -- - -- - - ------- -- -- -- -- - AM- - -- - -- ---- - --- - --- - . „ • The Hearing Officer shall issue a written determination to approve, conditionally approve, or deny a request for reasonable accommodation, and the associated modification or revocation. • The reasonable accommodation request shall be heard with, and subject to, the notice, review, approval, call for review, and appeal procedures identified for any other discretionary permit. • On review the Council may sustain, reverse, or modify the decision of the Hearing Officer or remand the matter for further consideration, which remand shall include specific issues to be considered or a direction for a de novo hearing. The written decision to approve or deny a request for reasonable accommodation must be consistent with all the applicable Federal and State laws and is be based on consideration of the following findings, all of which are required for approval, the requested accommodation: • Is requested by or on the behalf of one or more individuals with a disability protected under the Fair Housing Laws. • Is necessary to provide one or more individuals with a disability an equal opportunity to use and enjoy a dwelling. • Will not impose an undue financial or administrative burden on the City as "undue financial or administrative burden" is defined in Fair Housing Laws and interpretive case law. • Will not result in a fundamental alteration in the nature of a City program, as "fundamental alteration" is defined in Fair Housing Laws and interpretive case law; and • Will not, under the specific facts of the case, result in a direct threat to the health or safety of other individuals or substantial physical damage to the property of others. Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-34 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT In making determinization for a request for reasonable accommodation, the hearing officer may consider a variety of factors; factors for consideration by the hearing officer are listed (but limited to) in Chap Section 20.52.070 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code. Reasonable accommodation generates practical opportunity and increased feasibility for the creation of accessible housing and the Newport Beach's City process is not considered a constraint to the development of housing for all persons. nPfinitinn of Family A restrictive definition of "family" that limits the number of unrelated persons and differentiates between related and unrelated individuals living together is inconsistent with the right of privacy established by the California Constitution. The City's Municipal Code defines "family" as one or more persons living together as a single housekeeping unit in a dwelling unit. The Code also defines a single housekeeping unit as the functional equivalent of a traditional family, whose members are an interactive group of persons jointly occupying a single dwelling unit, including the joint use of and responsibility for common areas, and sharing household activities and responsibilities (e.g., meals, chores, household maintenance, expenses, etc.) and where, if the unit is rented, all adult residents have chosen to jointly occupy the entire premises of the dwelling unit, under a single written lease with joint use and responsibility for the premises, and the makeup of the household occupying the unit is determined by the residents of the unit rather than the landlord or property manager. The City's definition of family does not limit the number of unrelated persons living together, however the definition for single housekeeping unit, as it relates to family, may require an update by the City as it considers a unit the equivalent to a traditional family. Development Fees Residential developers are subject to a variety of permitting, development, and impact fees in order to access services and facilities as allowed by State law. The additional cost to develop, maintain, and improve housing due to development fees result in increased housing unit cost, and therefore is generally considered a constraint to housing development. However, fees are necessary to provide planning and public services in Newport Beach. The location of projects and housing type result in varying degrees of development fees. The presumed total cost of development is also contingent on the project meeting city policies and regulations and the circumstances involved in a particular development project application. Table 3-10 provides the planning and land use fees assessed by City of Newport Beach and Table 3-11 provides the engineering and development services fees required for development projects. All fees are available on the City's website in compliance with (GC 65940.1(a)(1)(A)). Estimated total development and impact fees for a typical single -unit residential project, assuming it is not part of a subdivision and is consistent with existing city policies and regulations can range from $63,304 to $68,304. Estimated total development and Impact fees for a typical multi -unit residential project with ten units, assuming it is consistent with existing City policies and regulations range from $429,600 to $434,600. These estimates are illustrative in nature and that actual costs are contingent upon unique circumstance inherent in individual development project applications. Considering the high cost of land in Newport, and Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-35 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT the International Code Council (ICC) estimates for cost of labor and materials, the combined costs of permits and fees range from approximately 12.5 percentto 13.5 percent of the direct cost of development for a single -unit residential project and 9.6 percent to 9.3 percent for a multi -unit residential project. Direct costs do not include, landscaping, connection fees, on/off-site improvements, shell construction or amenities, therefore the percentage of development and impact fees charged by the City may be smaller if all direct and indirect costs are included.

The fee rate schedule increases by 2.667% each year on July 11t On -/Off -Site Improvements Site improvements in the City consist of those typically associated with development for on-site improvements (street frontage improvements, curbs, gutters, sewer/water, and sidewalks), and off-site improvements caused by project impacts (drainage, parks, traffic, schools, and sewer/water). Thus, these are costs that may influence the sale or rental price of housing. Because residential development cannot take place without the addition of adequate infrastructure, site improvement requirements are considered a regular component of development of housing within the City. Majority of cost associated with on and off-site improvements is undertaken by the City and recovered in the City's development and impact fees. Building Codes and Enforcement The City's construction codes are based upon the California Code of Regulations, Title 24 that includes the California Administrative Code, Building Code, Residential Code, Electrical Code, Mechanical Code, Plumbing Code, Energy Code, Historical Building Code, Fire Code, Existing Building Code, Green Building Standards Code, and California Referenced Standards Code. They are the minimum necessary to protect the public health, safety and welfare of the City's residents. In compliance with State law, the California Building Standards Code is revised and updated every three (3) years. The newest edition of the California Building Standards Code is the 2019 edition with an effective date of January 1, 2020. The City strives to provide reasonable accommodation for persons with disabilities in the enforcement of building codes and the issuance of building permits. The City has not made any building code or code enforcement Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-38 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT amendments in the past 8 years which directly affect or potentially hider the development of housing in Newport Beach. Code enforcement is conducted by the City and is based on systematic enforcement in areas of concern and on a complaint basis throughout the city. The Code Enforcement Division works with property owners and renters to assist in meeting state health and safety codes. The Code Compliance Department investigates complaints regarding violations of the Newport Beach Municipal Codes. The following are frequent enforcement items: • Hazardous property conditions • Overgrown vegetation • Housing Code violations (broken windows, peeling paint) • Inoperable and abandoned vehicles on private property • Signs, including signs in public right-of-way and signs without permits • Solid Waste (early set -out of containers, inadequate containers, illegal dumping) • Water quality and conservation • Zoning requirements, (i.e., illegal dwelling units and use requirements) Local Processing and Permit Procedures The processing time needed to obtain development permits and required approvals is commonly cited by the development community as a prime contributor to the high cost of housing. 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, encounter community opposition, or are appealed to or require approval from the Coastal Commission. The City strives for a streamlined building permit plan check process, especially for single- and multi -family residential development. Internal targets for plan check review times for building permits are 10 business days for the first submittal, 5 business days for the second and subsequent submittals, if needed. It is worth noting that the timing of the overall process depends more heavily on the responsiveness of the design team after the first round of review. For projects requiring a discretionary action, such as a coastal development permit, site development review, or parcel map, approximately three additional months should be added to processing timelines. Although rare, if an EIR, Zone Change, General Plan Amendment, or Local Coastal Program Amendment is required, then approximately eight months should be added to processing timelines. Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-39 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) L City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Applicants for all permits or reviews are recommended to request a pre -application conference with the respective department to achieve the following: • Inform the applicant of 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 All applicable fees related to permits and reviews are established by the City Council and can be found in the City's Master fee schedule (Tables 3-10 and 3-11). All applications are first reviewed for completeness, discretionary applications require the respective department to provides a written report and recommendation, applications are then subject to review by the appropriate authority. Table 3-13 below identifies the review authority responsible for reviewing and making decisions on each type of application required by the Newport Beach Zoning Code. Permit review procedures for residential developments in the City of Newport Beach are outlined below.

The City of Newport Beach views the longer time period is common and necessary for larger, more complicated projects and does not see this in any way as hindering the construction of housing or introducing unnecessary delays. In most all cases, the timeline from receiving approval to submitting for building permits is solely dictated by the project applicant and not constrained by any requirements placed upon the applicant by the City. Conditional Use Permits in Residential Zoning The purpose and intend of Conditional Use Permits in residential zoning districts, as identified by the Newport Beach Municipal Code Chapter 20.52.030, is to promote the public health, safety, and welfare and to implementthe goals and policies of the General Plan by ensuring that conditional uses in residential neighborhoods do not change the character of the neighborhoods as primarily residential communities.

In doing so, the City seeks to avoid the over -concentration of residential care facilities so that these facilities are reasonably dispersed throughoutthe community and are not congregated or over -concentrated in any particular area to institutionalize that area. A conditional use permit is required to authorize uses not previously permitted as allowable in the applicable residential zoning district or in an area where residential uses are provided for in Planned Community Districts or specific plan districts. An application for a conditional use permit, meeting all the requirements outline in Chapter 20.52.030 D, is then reviewed by the Director to ensure that the proposal complies with all applicable requirements. Additionally, all conditional use permit applications require a public hearing and a public notice of the hearing. The review authority identified in Table 3-139 above is designated to approve, conditionally approve, or deny applications for conditional use permits in residential zoning districts. To promote certaintv in meetine the scone of the conditional use permit review. provide upfront feedback, and to expedite processing, the City offers, free -of -charge, Development Review Committee (DRC) meetings with prospective applicants. DRC meetings are informal meetings with representatives of the various City departments or divisions (i.e., Planning, Building, Public Works, Fire, etc.) that are held weekly and are scheduled with only one week lead time. A prospective applicant receives detailed feedback on their proposal so thev can address issues early to provide a more complete submission thereby avoiding unnecessary delays. As described in more detail in the Reasonable Accommodation Section of the Housine Element. in the event that conditional use permit process proves to be a barrier or constraint to the development of housing for disabled, Section 20.52.070 of the Zoning Code provides procedures for obtaining reasonable accommodation from the permitting requirements. With a reasonable accommodation, a group of disabled individuals can reside in any district zoned for residential use without the need for a conditional use permit, but rather an alternative, no -cost, and objective reasonable accommodation process. 4Zifc licvc/nnmcnf I?cvic�ni^ The City of Newport Beach identifies the purpose of site development reviews as providing a process for the review of specific development projects in order to: • Ensure consistency with General Plan policies related to the preservation of established community character, and expectations for high quality development. • Respect the physical and environmental characteristics of the site. • Ensure safe and convenient access and circulation for pedestrians and vehicles. • Allow for and encourage individual identity for specific uses and structures. • Encourage the maintenance of a distinct neighborhood and/or community identity. • Minimize or eliminate negative or undesirable visual impacts. Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-42 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT • Ensure protection of significant views from public right(s)-of-way in compliance with Section 20.30.100 (Public View Protection); and • Allow for different levels of review depending on the significance of the development project. Site development review is required before the issuance of a building or grading permit for any new structure. Structures that do not require a site development review (but instead require a zoning clearance) include, accessory structures, fences and/or walls, reconstruction or exterior remodeling of existing structures, one to four dwelling units, without a tentative or parcel map, and non-residential up to a maximum of 9,999 square feet of gross floor area. Site development review and approval is determined by either the Zoning Administrator or the Planning Commission. The City provides the DRC review process for site development reviews as described in the previous section. Table 3-14 below identifies the applicable review authority for different development types. Table 3-14: Review Authority and Action for Residential Construction A site development review is initiated when the Department receives a complete application package including the required information and materials specified by the Director and any additional information required by the applicable review authority in order to conduct a thorough review of the project. Upon receipt of a complete application the applicable review authority shall conduct a review of the location, design, site plan configuration, and effect of the proposed project on adjacent properties by comparing the project plans to established development standards and adopted criteria and policies applicable to the use or structure. All site development reviews require a public hearing and a notice of the hearing. The review authority may approve or conditionally approve a site development review application. The following criteria shall be considered during the review of a site development review application: • Compliance with this section, the General Plan, this Zoning Code, any applicable specific plan, and other applicable criteria and policies related to the use or structure.

Section 4: Housing Plan establishes Policy Action 3A to establish objective design standards for the City. Specifically, Policy Action 3A states —The City of Newport Beach will review existing entitlement processes for housing development and will eliminate discretionary review for all housing development proposals that include a minimum affordable housing component. The City will also review the appropriateness of its current development standards to ensure that it reasonably accommodates the type and density of housing it is intended to support. The City will also amend existing development standards to replace or remove all subjective standards for projects with a minimum affordable housing component with objective standards that do not impede the type and density of housing it is intended to allow. The objective development standards are to be adopted within 24 months of the Housing Element adoption. Zoning Clearance, A Zoning clearance is the procedure used by the City to verify that a proposed use or structure complies with the activities allowed in the applicable zoning district and the development standards and other provisions of the City's Zoning Code. A zoning clearance is required as a prerequisite to establishing a structure or use for the following: • Before the initiation or commencement of any use of land not requiring the construction of a structure. • Whenever a use is proposed to be changed, whether or not the new use involves a new lessee, operator, or owner, a zoning clearance shall be obtained. • Before the City issues a new or modified building permit, grading permit, or other construction - related permit required for the alteration, construction, modification, moving, or reconstruction of any structure. The Department may issue the zoning clearance after first determining that the request complies with all Zoning Code provisions and other adopted criteria and policies applicable to the proposed use or structure. An approval may be in the form of a stamp, signature, or other official notation on approved plans, a letter to the applicant, or other certification, at the discretion of the Director. Review authority for Zoning Clearances is stated in Table 3-13-1 above. Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-44 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach - 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT senate Bill 3` California Senate Bill 35 (SB 35), codified as Government Code Section 65913.41, was signed on September 29, 2017 and became effective January 1, 2018. SB 35 will automatically sunset on January 1, 2026 (Section 65913.4(m)). The intent of SB 35 is to expedite and facilitate construction of affordable housing. SB 35 applies to cities and counties that have not made sufficient progress toward meeting their affordable housing goals for above moderate- and lower-income levels as mandated by the State. In an effort to meet the affordable housing goals, SB 35 requires cities and counties to streamline the review and approval of certain qualifying affordable housing projects through a ministerial process. When a jurisdiction has made insufficient progress toward their Above Moderate -income RHNA and/or has not submitted the latest Housing Element Annual Progress Report (2018) it is subject to the streamlined ministerial approval process (SB 35 (Chapter 366, Statutes of 2017) streamlining) for proposed developments with at least 50 percent affordability. All projects, which propose at least 50 percent affordable units within Newport Beach are eligible for ministerial approval under SB 35 as determined by the SB 35 Statewide Determination Summary. To be eligible for SB 35 approval, sites must meet a long list of criteria, including: • A multifamily housing development (at least two residential units) in an urbanized area; • Located where 75% of the perimeter of the site is developed; • Zoned or designated by the general plan for residential or mixed use residential; • In a location where the locality's share of regional housing needs has not b-ebeen satisfied by building permits previously issued; • One that includes affordable housing in accordance with SB 35 requirements; • Consistent with the local government's objective zoning and design review standards; and • Willing to pay construction workers the state -determined "prevailing wage." A project does not qualify for SB 35 streamline processing if in: • A coastal zone, conservation lands, or habitat for protected species; • Prime farmland or farmland of statewide importance; • Wetlands or lands under conservation easement; • A very high fire hazard severity zone; • Hazardous waste site; • Earthquake fault zone; • Flood plain or floodway; • A site with existing multi -family housing that has been occupied by tenants in the last ten years or is subject to rent control; or Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-45 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach - 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT • A site with existing affordable housing.' 2. Infrastructure Constraints Another factor that could constrain new residential construction is the requirement and cost to provide adequate infrastructure (major and local streets; water and sewer lines; and street lighting) needed to serve new residential development. In most cases, where new infrastructure is required, it is funded by the developer and then dedicated to the City, which is then responsible for its maintenance. The cost of these facilities is generally borne by developers, which increases the cost of new construction, with much of that increased cost often "passed on" in as part of home rental or sales rates. The Utilities Department oversees, manages, and maintains the City's: • Water • Street sweeping • Wastewater (sewer) • Streetlights • Storm drain and tidal valve system • Oil and gas operations The City has water, sewer and dry utilities that exist or are planned to accommodate residential development in the community. As the City is essentially built out, the infrastructure in place is designed and located to accommodate potential for additional housing identified for the 6th Cycle Housing Element. Dry Utilities Dry utilities are the installation of the electric, telephone, TV, internet, and gas in a community. Of the utilities, the City must plan to provide the necessary resources, such as electric and gas, to increased households from 2021-2029, as projected by the RHNA allocation. Electricity Southern California Edison (SCE) is the electrical service provider for the City of Newport Beach. SCE is regulated by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and includes 50,000 square miles of SCE service area across Central, Coastal, and Southern California. The SCE reliability report identifies the reliability of electricity services to the City and identifies any dependability issues that exist in the City. There are 52 circuits that serve the City of Newport Beach, in total the 52 circuits serve 77,199 customers. SCE measure reliability by three categories: • System Average Interruption Duration Index (SAIDI) — total minutes every SCE customer was without power due to sustained power outage (outage > 5 minutes) divided by total number of customers • System Average Interruption Frequency Duration Index (SAIFI) — Number of sustained customer outages experienced by all SCE customers divided by total number of customers 1 JD Supra Knowledge Center, "How California's SB 35 Can Be Used to Streamline Real Estate Development Projects", Accessed March 26, 2021.

SoCal Gas is a gas -only utility and, in addition to serving the residential, commercial, and industrial markets, provides gas for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and EG customers in Southern California. The SoCal Gas 2020 utility report projects total gas demand to decline at an annual rate of 1 percent from 2020-2035. From 2020-2035, residential demand is expected to decline from 230 Bcf to 198 Bcf. The decline is approximately 1 percent per year, on average. The decline is due to declining use per meter—primarily driven by very aggressive energy efficiency goals and associated programs— offsetting new meter growth.2 Z SoCal Gas 2020 California Gas report, Prepared in Compliance with California Public Utilities Commission Decision D .95-01-039 Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-47 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT SoCalGas engages in several energy efficiency and conservation programs designed to help customers identify and implement ways to benefit environmentally and financially from energy efficiency investments. Programs administered by SoCalGas include services that help customers evaluate their energy efficiency options and adopt recommended solutions, as well as simple equipment -retrofit improvements, such as rebates for new hot water heaters. Additionally, the City of Newport Beach employs programs for energy and utility conservation, outline below in Section 3: Housing Resources, Opportunities for Energy Conservation. Water Supply The City of Newport Beach Utilities Department currently serves a population of over 86,000 within a service area of approximately fifty square miles. The Department is responsible for providing a safe and reliable source of water to approximately 26,200 active connections and delivering approximately 13,500 -acre feet (AF) of water per year on average.3 The City's distribution system consists of approximately 300 miles of distribution pipelines and is divided into five main pressure zones: Zone 1 through Zone 5 with 16 minor zones. Zones 1 and 2 are the largest and cover most of the system demands. Zones 3, 4 and 5 are smaller pumped zones. The system infrastructure consists of four wells, three storage reservoirs, five pump stations and 43 pressure reducing stations (PRS) that manage pressure across the system.4 The City of Newport Beach water division is separated into four sections: water maintenance and repair, water production, water quality, and water system services, each department's duties are outlined below. Together the division is responsible for providing a safe and reliable source of water. Newport Beach Water Source The City receives its water from several sources, local groundwater from the Lower Santa Ana River Groundwater Basin, imported water purchased from the Municipal Water District of Orange County (MWDOC), and recycled water purchased from Orange County Water District (OCWD). Most of the City's water supply is groundwater, pumped from four wells within the City of Fountain Valley. Imported water is treated at the Diemer Filtration Plant operated by the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (Metropolitan). The City is not capable of treating water to produce reclaimed water but purchases water from OCWD through the Green Acres Project. s Water Mainrenance aria ..Nair Water Maintenance & Repair is responsible for the maintenance and operation of the City's water mains and valves that are located underground. Water Prnductinn Water Production operates, maintains, and disinfects the City of Newport Beach's water supply. The division operates two well sites which produce groundwater from the Orange County Basin as well as three water reservoirs to receive, store and distribute the City's water. Other water facilities that assist in the distribution and treatment process include: five water pump stations, five Metropolitan Water District s City of Newport Beach, Water rate Study, 2019 ° City of Newport Beach, Water Master Plan, 2019 s City of Newport Beach, Urban Water Management Plan (2015) Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-48 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) L City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT interconnections, and 42 water pressure regulating stations. Water Production also manages SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) which monitors and controls the pumps in the City's water wastewater and gas systems. Big Canyon Reservoirs Located at 3300 Pacific View Drive in Corona Del Mar. The Big Canyon Reservoir is the largest City owned reservoir with a capacity of 600 -acre foot or 195 million gallons. Built in 1958 this reservoir was the primary water supply for Newport for many years. Although the reservoir does have the ability to supply water to the entire service area the reservoir is primarily used as a storage reservoir and supply to the City's higher -pressure zones. Spyglass Hill Reservoir Located under the Spyglass Reservoir park at the end of Muir Beach Circle in Spyglass is the 1.5 -million - gallon concrete reservoir. Built in the 1970s to supply the surrounding community this 101 -foot diameter and 27 -foot -deep reservoir is under the playground park. Large concrete support columns and thick concrete roof and walls support this reservoir. 16th Street Reservoir Located at the Utilities Yard at 949 West 16th Street in Newport Beach the newest of our reservoirs is a 3 -million -gallon underground concrete reservoir. Built in 1996 as part of the City's ground water project, this reservoir receives well water from our four City owned wells in Fountain Valley. This reservoir supplies water to the 16th Street pump station that can pump up to 12,000 gallons per minute into our distribution system. Excess water not used in the system is stored in the Big Canyon Reservoir in Corona Del Mar. Water QualitL The City of Newport Beach Utilities Department is responsible for providing residents with a reliable, safe, clean, potable, and domestic water supply. Newport Beach's drinking water is safe for drinking. It meets or exceeds all Federal and California water quality standards, which are the most stringent standards of any state in the nation. The City's staff continuously monitors the City's water supply and conducts more than 1,500 tests each year on potable water drawn from different sampling points along our distribution system. Water System Services Water System Services assists City of Newport Beach customers with any questions regarding water quality, water pressure, consumption usage, any concern with water meters, leak detection, utilities inspections and underground utility locating. The City's Water Systems Services webpage provides tips and information for proper water systems care for property owners as well as additional resources. Wasirewarer Wastewater is responsible for the collection of residential and commercial wastewater. This Division has three sub -sections: Pump Station Operation, Cleaning Operation and Construction Operation. These three sub -sections provide service relating to pump station repair and maintenance, sewer main, lateral and manhole cleaning, sewer blockage and odor, and sewer main and lateral breaks and repairs. Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-49 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) L City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT The City's Wastewater department is responsible for 203 miles of sewer pipe, 120 miles of sewer laterals, approximately 5,000 manholes, 21 pump stations, and five miles of force mains. The City's 2019 Sewer System Management Plan states the department's main goals to include the following: • Maintain uninterrupted sewage flow without health hazard, effluent leakage, or water infiltration and inflow. • Operate a sanitary sewer system that meets all regulatory requirements. • Avoid sanitary sewer overflows and respond to sanitary sewer overflows quickly and mitigate any impact of the overflow. • Maintain standards and specifications for the installation of new wastewater systems. • Verify the wastewater collection system has adequate capacity to convey sewage during peak flows. • Provide training for Wastewater Collection staff. • Maintain the Fats, Oil, and Grease program (FOG program) to limit fats, oils, grease, and other debris that may cause blockages in the wastewater collection system. • Identify and prioritize structural deficiencies and implement short-term and long-term maintenance and rehabilitation actions to address each deficiency. • Meet all applicable regulatory notification and reporting requirements. • Provide excellent customer service through efficient system operation and effective communication strategies. Sewe, The Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD)provides sanitation services to the City of Newport Beach. In 2013, the sanitation district began a construction program to rehabilitate the OCSD's regional sewers in the City. The program ran through 2018 and consisted of five construction projects, including: • Dover Drive Trunk Sewer Relief (5-63): The Dover Drive Trunk sewer runs between Irvine Blvd. and Coast Highway and is in poor condition. The existing sewer pipeline also does not have efficient hydraulic capacity to handle the wastewater flow and must therefore be replaced with a larger pipeline. OCSD will also relocate a city waterline to reduce the level of impact for the community by eliminating the need for a secondary project in the area. • Balboa Trunk Sewer Rehabilitation (5-47): This project will rehabilitate the existing Balboa Trunk sewer along Newport Blvd. and Balboa Blvd. between A Street and Finley Ave. (See map: between A Street Pump Station and Lido Pump Station.) The project includes installation of a new protective lining in approximately 12,600 feet of sewer pipeline. • Newport Force Main Rehabilitation (5-60): The Newport Force Main is a critical component of our sewer system and needs to be rehabilitated. It carries the wastewater flow from various pump stations to our treatment plant in Huntington Beach. The pipelines are located on Coast Highway stretching past Dover Dr. to the Bitter Point Pump Station, approximately 1/4 mile north of Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-50 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Superior Ave., which is a heavily traveled thoroughfare. There are two sewer lines, one on the north side of Coast Highway and one on the south side which make the rehabilitation more complex. • District 6 Trunk Sewer Relief (6-17): The District 6 Trunk sewer runs from Pomona Ave. in the City of Costa Mesa to Newport Blvd. near Coast Highway in the City of Newport Beach. This project will increase the capacity of the existing sewer pipeline to reduce the potential for sewer spills and to properly handle flows. • Southwest Costa Mesa Trunk (6-19): In an effort to improve efficiency in our service area, this project is looking into the design and construction of a new gravity trunk sewer. This project may lead to the abandonment of eight Costa Mesa and Newport Beach pump stations to provide more reliable service to the community The infrastructure improvements initiated by OCSD from 2013 to 2018 increased overall capacity and efficiency in the Newport Beach sewer system. The City can accommodate the increase in households as projected by the City's RHNA allocation. Water uemana In fiscal year 2014-15, the City's total water demand was approximately 16,033 acre-feet. The City's potable demand was met through 11,200 acre-feet of groundwater and 4,338 acre-feet of imported water; the remaining non -potable demand was met through recycled water. The City is projecting over five percent increase in total potable and non -potable demand in the next 25 years accompanied by a projected 13 percent population growth.6 The 2015 UWMP found that Metropolitan is able to meet full service demands of its member agencies with existing supplies outto 2040 during a normal, single -dry, and multiple -dry year scenario. Additionally, the 2019 Water Master Plan found that though population continues to increase over the past ten years, total water demand has decreased. The 10 -year average annual demand for 2007-2016 (15,991 AF) is 14 percent less than the 1986-1996 average annual demand (18,626 AF). The City's water infrastructure and service provider is capable of meeting the water demands of its customers under the same hydrological conditions out to 2040, this includes all household growth estimated by the City's RHNA allocation. Fire and Emergency Services The City of Newport Beach's Fire Department aims to Protect life, property, and the environment with innovative professionalism and organizational effectiveness using highly trained professionals committed to unparalleled service excellence. The department has 144 full-time employees and over 200 part-time/seasonal employees provide 24-hour protection and response to the community's residents, businesses, and visitors. ' City of Newport Beach, Urban Water Management Plan (2015) Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-51 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT The department's primary goals are identified as follows: • Identify and reduce fire and environmental hazards that may threaten life and property. • Provide a safe, effective, and expeditious response to requests for assistance. • Develop an adequately trained workforce to effectively perform their duties. • Participate in the community development planning process to improve fire and life safety. • Encourage department personnel to assume leadership roles in the organization. • Plan for response to natural and man-made disasters that affect the community. • Educate and train employees and the community to assist them in maintaining a safe environment. The department's different divisions and respective duties are outlined below. Fire Operations Division The Fire Operations Division is the largest of four divisions within the Newport Beach Fire Department. The primary responsibilities of its personnel are life safety, incident stabilization, and the preservation of property and the environment. The Newport Beach Fire Department operates as an "all risk" emergency responsible organization responding to the following: • Fires • Pre -hospital Medical Emergencies • Technical Rescues • Traffic Accidents • Vehicle Extrications • Major Flooding • Beach Rescues • High Rise Incidents • Wildland Fires • Disaster Operations • Hazardous Materials Incidents The Fire Department staffs eight fire stations 24/7. The stations are strategically located throughout the city to provide the quickest and most effective response to the area served, with an average response time of five minutes. Considering the department's expansive and well-connected nature, as well as the compactness of the City of Newport, additional housing or new developments would not pose a burden on the existing Fire Department's fire operations. Therefore, fire operations are not considered a constraint to the development of housing for all income levels. The City requires Development Agreements for certain development types within the Airport area to ensure adequate safety services and ambulance units. Development Agreements include additional fees for safety service operations in the airport area due to current lack of ambulance units. The imposition of additional fees may pose a constraint to the development of housing, and particularly affordable housing. This may result in greater development fees which may subsequently influence the final rental cost of units or home value. Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-52 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach - 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT o -mergency Medical Services The goal of the Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Division is to deliver the highest quality of medical care to members of the community, regardless of their ability to pay. In total, the City has eight fire stations that are strategically located to provide the best services the community. Each day there are eight fire engines, two fire trucks and the three paramedic ambulances in service. The average response time is four minutes and 22 seconds. The system's design accounts for fewer paramedic ambulances and expects a nearby fire engine or truck company to arrive on scene first to initiate basic medical care, which at times can include lifesaving cardio -pulmonary resuscitation or delivering rapid electrical shocks using automated external defibrillators (AEDs), prior to the arrival of the paramedic team. Lifcro—M tincrnfinnc nivicinr The City of Newport Beach's Lifeguard Division protects up to 10 million beach visitors on Newport Beach's 6.2 miles of ocean and 2.5 miles of bay beaches, with preventative actions and medical assistance. Every day of the year, lifeguards ensure safety and provide customer service to the visitors on the beach, boardwalk, piers, and in the ocean. Police Services The City of Newport Beach's Police Department intends to: • Respond positively to the Community's needs, desires, and values and in so doing be recognized as an extension and reflection of those we serve. • Strive to provide a safe and healthy environment for all, free from violence and property loss resulting from criminal acts, and injuries caused by traffic violators. • Manage inevitable change and welcome the challenge of future problems with creative solutions, which are financially prudent and consistent with Community values. The Department's is headed by Chief of Police Jon T. Lewis, who is the 10th Chief of Police in the department's history, assuming office on March 22, 2016. The City of Newport Beach's Police Department handles a wide array of services and permitting, all services are outlined in detail on the City's Police Department webpage. 3. Environmental Constraints Newport Beach is bound by the Pacific Ocean to the West and contains many different natural landscapes within the City's boundaries. Newport Beach has a variety of coastal features ranging from replenished beach sands in West Newport, to steep bluffs comprised of sandstone and siltstone to the south of Corona del Mar. The community, as most of California is, sits along some major fault traces. The City is susceptible to several potential environmental constraints to the development of housing, including geologic hazards, flood hazards, and fire hazards, all are detailed below. Coastal Hazards A goal of the California Coastal Act and the City's adopted Local Coastal Program is to assure the priority for coastal -dependent and coastal -related development over other development in the Coastal Zone. The Coastal Act is an umbrella legislation designed to encourage local governments to create Local Coastal Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-53 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Programs (LCPs) to govern decisions that determine the short- and long-term conservation and use of coastal resources. The City of Newport Beach's LCP is considered the legislative equivalent of the City's General Plan for areas within the Coastal Zone. Local Coastal Programs are obligated by statute to be consistent with the policies of the Coastal Act and protect public access and coastal resources. Over 63 percent of Newport Beach is within the Coastal Zone and subject to the oversight by the California Coastal Commission. 'pa I pvpl Riep and 4fnrm In►mrlafinn Newport Beach is exposed to a variety of coastal hazards including beach erosion, bluff erosion, and coastal flooding due to sea level rise (SLR) and storm inundation. The City has a significant amount of land directly adjacent to surface water that is directly affected by sea level rise and storm inundation. The effects of SLR on coastal processes, such as shoreline erosion, storm -related flooding and bluff erosion, have been evaluated using a Coastal Storm Modeling System (CoSMoS), a software tool and multi -agency effort led by the United States Geological Survey (USGS), to make detailed predictions of coastal flooding and erosion based on existing and future climate scenarios for Southern California. The mapping results from CoSMoS provide predictions of shoreline erosion (storm and non -storm), coastal flooding during extreme events, and bluff erosion for the City in community -level coastal planning and decision-making. A large portion of the City's coastal adjacent land appropriate for development is at risk of tidal flooding. Land along the coast is vulnerable to shoreline retreat, which is predicted to accelerate with Sea Level Rise. Long-term shoreline retreat coupled with storm -induced beach erosion has the potential to cause permanent damage to buildings and infrastructure in these hazard zones. As a result, the City did not utilize land within the coastal The Coastal Commission provides direct guidance on how the City of Newport Beach addresses future land use in consideration of sea level rise. According to the California Coastal Commission Sea Level Rise Policy Guidance' , local jurisdictions can "Minimize Coastal Hazards through Planning and Development Standards" through the following measures applicable to Newport Beach: • Design adaptation strategies according to local conditions and existing development patterns, in accordance with the Coastal Act. • Avoid significant coastal hazard risks to new development where feasible. • Minimize hazard risk to new development over the life of the authorized development. • Minimize coastal hazard risks and resource impacts when making redevelopment decisions. • Account for the social and economic needs of the people of the state include environmental justice, assure priority for coastal -dependent and coastal -related develop over other development The Coastal Commission has also prepared a Draft Coastal Adaptation Planning Guidance: Residential Development (dated March 2018), which will serve as the Coastal Commission's policy guidance on sea ' California Coastal Commission Sea Level Rise Policy Guidance, 2018 Science Update Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-54 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) L City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT level rise adaptation for residential development to help facilitate planning for resilient shorelines while protecting coastal resources in LCPs Geologic Hazards According to the Newport Beach Safety Element, the geologic diversity of Newport Beach is strongly related to tectonic movement along the San Andreas Fault and its broad zone of subsidiary faults. This, along with sea level fluctuations related to changes in climate, has resulted in a landscape that is also diverse in geologic hazards. Geologic hazards are generally defined as surficial earth processes that have the potential to cause loss or harm to the community or the environment. Specific geologic hazards that may affect the development of housing in the City are detailed below. Slope Failures Slope failures often occur as elements of interrelated natural hazards in which one event triggers a secondary event such as a storm -induced mudflow. Slope failure can occur on natural and man-made slopes. The City's remaining natural hillsides and coastal bluff areas are generally vulnerable to slope failures that include: San Joaquin Hills; and bluffs along Upper Newport Bay, Newport Harbor, and the Pacific Ocean. Despite the abundance of landslides and new development in the San Joaquin Hills, damage from slope failures in Newport Beach has been small which may be attributed to the development of strict hillside grading ordinances, sound project design that avoid severely hazardous areas, soil engineering practices, and effective agency review of hillside grading projects. Seismic Hazards The City of Newport Beach is located in the northern part of the Peninsular Ranges Province, an area that is exposed to risk from multiple earthquake fault zones. The City of Newport Beach Safety Element determines that the highest risks originate from the Newport -Inglewood fault zone, the Whittier fault zone, the San Joaquin Hills fault zone, and the Elysian Park fault zone. Each of the aforementioned zones have the potential to cause moderate to large earthquakes that would cause ground shaking in Newport Beach and nearby communities. Earthquake -triggered geologic effects also include surface fault rupture, landslides, liquefaction, subsidence, and seiches. Specific hazards associated with seismic hazards, which can potentially be determined as a constraint to development are detailed below. Liquefaction Strong ground shaking can result in liquefaction. Liquefaction, a geologic process that causes ground failure, typically occurs in loose, saturated sediments primarily of sandy composition. According to the Newport Beach Safety Element, the areas of Newport Beach susceptible to liquefaction and related ground failure (i.e., seismically induced settlement) include the following areas along the coastline: • Balboa Peninsula, • In and around the Newport Bay and Upper Newport Bay, • in the lower reaches of major streams in Newport Beach, and • In the floodplain of the Santa Ana River. Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-55 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT It is likely that residential or commercial development will never occur in many of the other liquefiable areas, such as Upper Newport Bay, the Newport Coast beaches, and the bottoms of stream channels. SPicmir_ally Inr/urPrl S/nn Fail►irp Strong ground motions can also worsen existing unstable slope conditions, particularly if coupled with saturated ground conditions. Seismically induced landslides can overrun structures, people or property, sever utility lines, and block roads, thereby hindering rescue operations after an earthquake. Much of the area in eastern Newport Beach has been identified as vulnerable to seismically induced slope failure. Approximately 90 percent of the land from Los Trancos Canyon to State Park boundary is mapped as susceptible to land sliding by the California Geologic Survey. Additionally, the sedimentary bedrock that crops out in the San Joaquin Hills is locally highly weathered. In steep areas, strong ground shaking can cause slides or rockfalls in this material. Rupture along the Newport Inglewood Fault Zone and other faults in Southern California could reactivate existing landslides and cause new slope failures throughout the San Joaquin Hills. Slope failures can also be expected to occur along stream banks and coastal bluffs, such as Big Canyon, around San Joaquin Reservoir, Newport and Upper Newport Bays, and Corona del Mar. Flood Hazards The City of Newport Beach and surrounding areas are, like most of Southern California, subject to unpredictable seasonal rainfall, and every few years the region is subjected to periods of intense and sustained precipitation that result in flooding. Flooding can be a destructive natural hazard and is a recurring event. A flood is any relatively high streamflow overtopping the natural or artificial banks in any reach of a stream. Flood hazards in Newport Beach can be classified into two general categories: flash flooding from small, natural channels; and more moderate and sustained flooding from the Santa Ana River and San Diego Creek. The City of Newport Beach's Safety Element Identifies 100 -year and 500 -year flood zones in the City. Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) flood zones are geographic areas that the FEMA has defined according to varying levels of flood risk. Each zone reflects the severity or type of flooding in the area .8 The 100 -year flood zone are areas with a one percent annual chance of flooding, the 500 -year flood zones are areas with a 0.2 percent annual chance of flooding. The 100- and 500 -year flood zones include the low-lying areas in West Newport at the base of the bluffs, the coastal areas which surround Newport Bay and all low-lying areas adjacent to Upper Newport Bay. 100- and 500- year flooding is also anticipated to occur along the lower reaches of Coyote Canyon, in the lower reaches of San Diego Creek and the Santa Ana Delhi Channel, and in a portion of Buck Gully. The City also recently worked with FEMA to revise proposed flood hazards maps, in which FEMA removed over 2,700 properties from flood zones. Most flooding along these second- and third -order streams is not expected to impact significant development. However, flooding in the coastal areas of the City will impact residential and commercial zones along West Newport, the Balboa Peninsula and Balboa Island and the seaward side of Pacific Coast Highway.9 With increased development, there is also an increase in impervious surfaces, such as asphalt. Water that used to be absorbed into the ground becomes runoff to downstream areas. However, various flood $ FEMA Flood Zone Designations, Natural resources Conservation Service — Field Office Technical Guides e City of Newport Beach Safety Element Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-56 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) L City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT control measures help mitigate flood damage in the City, including reservoirs in the San Joaquin Hills and Santa Ana Mountain foothills, and channel alterations for the Santa Ana River. These structures help regulate flow in the Santa Ana River, San Diego Creek, and smaller streams and hold back some of the flow during intense rainfall period that could otherwise overwhelm the storm drain system in Newport Beach. Fire Hazards The Newport Beach Safety Element defines a wildland fire hazard area as any geographic area that contains thetype and condition of vegetation, topography, weather, and structuredensitythat potentially increases the possibility of wildland fires. The eastern portion of the City and portions of the Newport Beach region and surrounding areas to the north, east, and southeast include grass- and brush -covered hillsides with significant topographic relief that facilitate the rapid spread of fire, especially if fanned by coastal breezes or Santa Ana winds. In those areas identified as susceptible to wildland fire, the Fire Department enforces locally developed regulations which reduce the amount and continuity of fuel (vegetation) available, firewood storage, debris clearing, proximity of vegetation to structures and other measures aimed at "Hazard Reduction." New construction and development are further protected by local amendments to the Uniform Building Code. These amendments, which are designed to increase the fire resistance of a building, include: protection of exposed eaves, noncombustible construction of exterior walls, protection of openings, and the requirement for Class "A" fireproof roofing throughout the City. Additionally, a "Fuel Modification" plan aimed at reducing fire encroachment into structures from adjacent vegetation must be developed and maintained. 1. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing All Housing Elements due on or after January 1, 2021 must contain an Assessment of Fair Housing (AFH) consistent with the core elements of the analysis required by the federal Affirmatively Further Fair Housing Final Rule of July 16, 2015. Under State law, affirmatively further fair housing means "taking meaningful actions, in addition to combatting discrimination, that overcome patterns of segregation and foster inclusive communities free from barriers that restrict access to opportunity based on protected characteristics. These characteristics can include, but are not limited to race, religion, sex, marital status, ancestry, national origin, color, familiar status, or disability. The Orange County Analysis of Impediments (AI) to Fair Housing Choice for FY 2015-19 was approved by the City of Newport Beach City Council in October 2016 as one of the fifteen urban county program participants in partnership with the Fair Housing Council of Orange County. The Draft Regional Analysis of Impediments (AI) to Fair Housing Choice for FY 2020-25 was made available for public review in 2020. The Fair Housing Council of Orange County works under the direction of a volunteer board of directors and staff to fulfill a mission of protecting the quality of life in Orange County by ensuring equal access to Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-57 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT housing opportunities, fostering diversity and preserving dignity and human rights. The agency is a HUD Approved Housing Counseling Agency and provides one-on-one education, mediation, and counseling for individuals and families throughout the Orange County region. The Al identifies impediments that may prevent equal housing access and develops solutions to mitigate or remove such impediments. Newport Beach's 6th Cycle Housing Element references analysis from the FY 2020-2025 Al in order to identify potential impediments to housing that are specific to Newport Beach. The City also completed its FY 2020-24 Consolidated Plan, adopted by City Council on May 12, 2020, as an entitlement city for Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding, which identifies housing problems within the community, specifically among low and very -low-income households. Fair housing is identified as a priority within the Consolidated Plan. ?. Summary of Local Data The Al contains a Countywide analysis of demographic, housing, and specifically fair housing issues for all the cities in Orange County, including Newport Beach. The City's demographic and income profile, household and housing characteristics, housing cost and availability, and special needs populations were discussed in the previous Section 2: Community Profile. In an ongoing effort to promote and encourage fair housing, the City contracts with the Fair Housing Foundation (FHF). FHF provides public outreach, educational workshops, and distributes educational materials related to fair housing. Inquiries regarding fair housing matters are generally referred to the FHF. As of July 30, 2021, a total of 116 Newport Beach low-income residents relied on Section 8 rental assistance vouchers. In 2020, the Fair Housing Foundation held virtual fair housing workshops (February 3, 2020, and November 17, 2020), held virtual walk-in clinics (May 13, 2020, May 20, 2020, July 15, 2020, September 2, 2020, and November 18, 2020), produced a public service announcement for Newport Beach Television (NBTV), and distributed 2,250 pieces of literature. Fair Housina Issues Within the legal framework of federal and state laws and based on the guidance provided by the HUD Fair Housing Planning Guide, impediments to fair housing choice can be defined as: • Any actions, omissions, or decisions taken because of age, race, color, ancestry, national origin, age, religion, sex, disability, marital status, familial status, source of income, sexual orientation, or any other arbitrary factor which restrict housing choices or the availability of housing choices; or • Any actions, omissions, or decisions which have the effect of restricting housing choices or the availability of housing choices on the basis of age, race, color, ancestry, national origin, age, religion, sex, disability, marital status, familial status, source of income, sexual orientation or any other arbitrary factor. Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-58 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Regional Fair Housing Issues • Availability, Type, Frequency, and Reliability of Public Transportation - The availability, type, frequency, and reliability of public transportation may be significant local contributing factors to fair housing issues in Newport Beach. Public transportation in Orange County primarily consists of bus service operated by the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) and Metrolink light rail service. However, Metrolink does not provide service to Newport. The lack of public transportation may deter members of protected classes who do not have cars and are reliant on public transportation from choosing to live there, thus reinforcing patterns of segregation. • Impediments to Mobility - Impediments to mobility may be a significant local contributing factor to fair housing issues in Newport Beach. Specifically, Housing Choice Voucher payment standards that make it difficult to secure housing in many, disproportionately White areas contribute to segregation and disparities in access to opportunity. The Orange County Housing Authority, which provides Section 8 resources to Newport Beach, has three tiers based on city rather than zip code, but the highest tier - $2,280 for two-bedroom units in selected cities — falls far short of Small Area Fair Market Rents and leaves some cities targeted for that payment standard out of reach. For example, in zip code 92660, located in Newport Beach, the Small Area Fair Market Rent for two-bedroom units would be $3,120. A Zillow search for that zip code revealed advertised two-bedroom units in only two complexes available for under $2,280 but many more available between $2,280 and $3,120. • Location of Accessible Housing - The location of accessible housing may be a significant local contributing factor to fair housing issues in Newport Beach. With a few exceptions the location of accessible housing tends to track areas where there are concentrations of publicly supported housing. In Orange County, publicly supported housing tends to be concentrated in areas that are disproportionately Hispanic and/or Vietnamese and that have relatively limited access to educational opportunity and environmental health. While this Is not a predominate issue in Newport Beach, comments by advocacy groups during the outreach process indicated that the location and availability of affordable housing throughout the community contributes to challenges to fair housing opportunity. Multi -unit housing tends to be concentrated in communities of color, but there are some predominantly White communities that have significant amounts of market -rate multi -unit housing that may be accessible and affordable to middle- income and high-income persons with disabilities, including Newport Beach. Overall, permitting more multi -unit housing and assisting more publicly supported housing in predominantly White communities with proficient schools would help ensure that persons with disabilities who need accessibility features in their homes have a full range of neighborhood choices available to them. Occupancy Codes and Restrictions - Occupancy codes and restrictions may be a significant local contributing factor to fair housing issues in Newport Beach. Specifically, there is a substantial recent history of municipal ordinances targeting group homes, in general, and community residences for people in recovery from alcohol or substance abuse disorders, in particular. In 2015, the City of Newport Beach entered into a $5.25 million settlement of a challenge to its ordinance, but that settlement did not include injunctive relief calling for a repeal of that Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-59 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT ordinance.10 Although municipalities have an interest in protecting the health and safety of group home residents, these types of restrictions may be burdensome for ethical, high-quality group home operators. Occupancy codes and restrictions are not as high priority of a barrier as the factors that hinder the development of permanent supportive housing, as group homes are generally less integrated than independent living settings. Local Contributing Factors Locally -derived contributing factors were developed in response to community participation in outreach events and through analysis conducted in Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing development and analysis of sites inventory and feedback and comment on the draft Housing Elements data, analysis and policy program. The following local contributing factors have been identified. explicitly includes the following fair housing issues in the City of Newport Beach: • Aging Housing Stock - Older housing stock areas in Newport Beach and whether there is a correlation between older units and lower-income households. We can touch on the Senior Home Assistance Repairs Program (SHARP) to assist with necessary home repairs. • Housing Conditions- Several areas of Newport Beach were developed prior to 1970, which means a large part of the City's housing stock is aging and may need repairs or upgrades to alleviate substandard living conditions. In the areas, there are also aging populations with individuals who are on fixed incomes and may be considered lower-income households. • Senior Housing — Seniors are predominately on fixed incomes and represent the largest group of residents in need of support to address high housing costs and unique housing needs. City's Senior Home Assistance Repair Program (SHARP) works to assist senior citizens with home repairs. Eligible applicants must be 60 or older and must have an income at or below the 50th -percentile of median income of Orange County with net assets not to exceed gross household income for 18 months. • High Cost of Housing - The cost of housing in Newport Beach is very high; however, the City has aimed to encourage and preserve a number of affordable housing units through existing agreements. As part of this Housing Element update, Policy Action 1K is included to adopt an inclusionary housing program that would require affordable units to be developed as part of a residential project meeting the applicability criteria. This will help to boost affordable housing production, which will in turn boost affordable housing stock to help offset higher housing costs. • Lower Income Access to Opportunity— High local employment in service industry at resort, hotel and other tourist -serving businesses contributes to the need for housing affordable to lower income households. To address this, Policy 4E grants exceptions for affordable housing projects, and supportive Policies for Housing Goal #5 provides for the preservation of lower income housing opportunities. io 41 Hannah Fry, Newport Will Pay Group Homes $5.25 Million Settlement, L.A.

Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-60 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT The City recognizes the fair housing issues that exist within the community and is committed to reduces barriers to housing affordable to all persons. The City has outline programs to address fair housing issues in Newport Beach in the Section 4: Housing Plan. Fair Housing Enforcement and Outreach Capacity Currently, the Fair Housing Foundation provides fair housing services to the City of Newport Beach. This includes providing fair housing enforcement and landlord/tenant mediation services which are available for tenants, realtors, apartment owners and managers, lending institutions and other interested parties. For FY 2020-21, the City of Newport Beach has allocated $12,000 in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds for the Fair Housing Foundation to perform the following, at no cost: • Fair housing services such as, responding to discrimination inquiries and complaints, documenting, and investigating discrimination complaints, and resolving or mediating discrimination complaints • A comprehensive, extensive, and viable education and outreach program, including: o Fair Housing Workshop o Certificate Management Training o Walk -In Clinics o Rental Housing Counseling Workshop o Community presentations, staff training, and workshops o Community events, booths, networking, etc. • Landlord and tenant counseling on responsibilities and rights • Rental counseling • Since the City contracts with an outside firm for these services, lack of monitoring and lack of direct access through City resources may be identified as contributing factors. The Fair Housing Foundations offers regular walk-in counseling sessions, in addition to resources fairs, informational workshops (accessible in multiple languages), landlord and tenant workshops, and other outreach efforts. Additionally, the FHF provided virtual workshops available online to Newport Beach residents. From 2015 to 2020, the City provided 408 residents with fair housing services using CDBG funding. As part of the FY 2020-25 Consolidated Plan for the Newport Beach, the City has set a goal of assisting 625 people with fair housing issues within the five-year period using $60,000 of CDBG funding. Newport Beach has also set a goal of retaining a Fair Housing provider to promote fair housing education and outreach within the community. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) maintains a record of all housing discrimination complaints filed in local jurisdictions. These grievances can be filed on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, disability, religion, familial status, and retaliation. As reported by the 2020- 2025 Al, one fair housing case is unresolved (as one 2020) in Newport Beach.

Analysis of Federal, State, and Local Data and Local Knowledge Local Data and Knowledge Newport Beach officiallv became an incorporated Citv in Orange Countv in September of 1906 and the current City Charter was adopted in 1954. The City began establishing itself in the 1920s around the development of the harbor; however it wasn't until the 1950s that the City became a vacation destination and Dermanent residents began to settle in the area.11 Between 1960 and 1980 the Citv experienced a boom in construction, which resulted in the population increasing from 26,564 residents to 62,549 residents over the 20 -year period. Today, about 85,694 persons live in the City of Newport Beach (ACS 2019). Of the residents in the City, 85.8 percent identify as White, 1.0 percent identify as Black, 8.0 percent identify as Asian, and 8.8 percent of all persons identify as Hispanic or Latino. The City's demographics display a large contrast between the population that is White and Non -White. Similarly, about 61.0 percent of the County of Orange population is White compared to 1.8 percent who identify as Black, 20.5 percent who identify as Asian and 34.1 percent who Identify as Hispanic or Latino of any race. E2 The Citv of NewDort Beach's DoDulation reauires a diverse arrav of housing options. Specifically. NewDort Beach has an aging population. About 23.1 percent of the population is over the age of 65 compared to 14.4 percent in the County. About 8.0 percent of all persons in Newport Beach reported at least one disability in 2019, majority of which were seniors (over the age of 65). Senior housing and housing accessibility were key priorities identified by the community during the Housing Element Outreach. Additionally, the median income for non -family households is significantly lower than that of married couple households and family households. The ACS 2019 5 -year data reports that nonfamily households earned a median income of $86,656 annually, compared to family households that earned $171,699 annually and married couple households that earned $192,542 annually. The City does not do fair housing testing. however additional information regarding fair housing concerns and issues was identified through the County of Orange Al. Additional housing needs, concerns, and disparities are analyzed below in the Fair Housing Analysis. Findings from the analysis are reported below under "Local Contributing Factors." Integration and Segregation Patterns and Trends The dissimilarity index is the most used measure of segregation between two groups, reflecting their relative distributions across neighborhoods (as defined by census tracts). The index represents the percentage of the minority group that would have to move to new neighborhoods to achieve perfect integration of that group. An index score can range in value from 0 percent, indicating complete 11 The Chamber Newport Beach, About Newport Beach, https://www.newportbeach.com/about-newport beach /#:—:text=The%20City%20of%20Newport%20Beach, brokering%20foIlowed%20in%201ater%20decades., accessed January 24, 2022.

Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-62 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT integration, to 100 percent, indicating complete segregation. An index number above 60 is considered to show high similarity and a segregated community. It is important to note that segregation is a complex topic, difficult to generalize, and is influenced by many factors. Individual choices can be a cause of segregation, with some residents choosing to live among people of their own race or ethnic group. For instance, recent immigrants often depend on nearby relatives, friends, and ethnic institutions to help them adjust to a new country. 13 Alternatively, when white residents leave neighborhoods that become more diverse, those neighborhoods can become segregated. Other factors, including housing market dynamics, availability of lending to different ethnic groups, availability of affordable housing, and discrimination can also cause residential segregation. The Longitudinal Tract Data Base (LTDB) from the Diversity and Disparities protect shows that from 1980 to 2010 the City of Newport became increasingly diverse. In 1980, the Non -Hispanic White population totaled 91.6 percent of the overall population and decreased to about 73.6 percent in 2010. During the same timeframe, the Hispanic population increased from 5.0 percent to 10.9 percent. Additionally, the total populations for those who identified as Asian increased from 1980 to 2010, 2.0 percent to 13.6 percent, and the total population of those who are Non -Hispanic Black increased from 0.5 percent to 1.2 percent. However, in 2018, the Black or African American population totaled about 0.8 percent of the population. The decrease in the Black population and increase in the Hispanic population is consistent with demographics trends for the greater metropolitan area. In 1980, the Non -Hispanic Black population equaled 10.1 percent of the overall population for the Los Angeles -Long Beach -Santa Ana metropolitan area, and the Hispanic population totaled 25.0 percent. By 2010, the Black population totaled 6.7 percent whereas the Hispanic population increased to 44.4 percent. According to 2018 ACS data, the total Non - Hispanic Black population in Orange County was 1.7 percent and the total Hispanic population was 34.1 percent. Figure 3-2 shows the dissimilarity between each of the identified race and ethnic groups and the jurisdictions White population, in both the County of Orange and Newport Beach. The higher scores indicate higher levels of segregation among those racial and ethnic group. The White (non -Hispanic or Latino) population makes up most of the City's population at approximately 79.5 percent according to the 2018 ACS estimates, as well as most of the County's population at 61.7 percent of the total population. The race and ethnic groups with the highest scores were the Native Hawaiian population (44.5) and people who reported as Other (51.3). Additionally. those who reported Black and the American Indian population had dissimilarity indices of 37.8 and 37.4 respectively. The figure displays the following r ultsi is Allen, James P. and Turner, Eugene. "Changing Faces, Changing Places: Mapping Southern California". California State University, Northridge, (2002). Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-63 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT The scores above directly correlate with the percentage of people within that racial or ethnic group that would need to move into a predominately White census tract in order to achieve a more integrated community. For instance, in Newport Beach, 44.5 percent of the Native Hawaiian population would need to move into predominately white census tract areas to achieve "perfect" integration. Whereas in Orange County, 55.9 percent of the percent of the Native Hawaiian population would need to move into predominately white census tract areas to achieve "perfect" integration. Overall, there are higher rates of segregation across the County of Orange compared to the City of Newport Beach. The Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) considers dissimilarity index scores above 30, but below 60 as moderate segregation. Scores above 60 are considered to be high segregation. According to Figure 3-2 below, while the City of Newport Beach has no racial or ethnic populations with a dissimilarity index above 60, all populations (with the exception of the Hispanic/Latino population) have a score above 30, meaning all groups experience moderate segregation from the White population. Similarly, all populations in the County have a score above 30. While segregation may be a result of ethnic enclaves or persons of similar cultures living in community, there is often increased likelihood segregated populations will have fewer access to essential resources. As a part of Newport Beach's efforts to further fair housing, the City will consider increased targeted outreach to the City's minority residents.

The definition involves a racial/ethnic concentration threshold and a poverty test. The racial/ethnic concentration threshold is straightforward: R/ECAPs must have a non-white population of 50 percent or more. Regarding the poverty threshold, Wilson (1980) defines neighborhoods of extreme poverty as census tracts with 40 percent or more of individuals living at or below the poverty line. Because overall poverty levels are substantially lower in many parts of the country, HUD supplements this with an alternate criterion. Thus, a neighborhood can be a R/ECAP if it has a poverty rate that exceeds 40% or is three or more times the average tract poverty rate for the metropolitan/micropolitan area, whichever threshold is lower. Location of residence can have a substantial effect on mental and physical health, education opportunities, and economic opportunities. Urban areas that are more residentially segregated by race and income tend to have lower levels of upward economic mobility than other areas. Research has found that racial inequality is thus amplified by residential segregation. 14 However, these areas may also provide different opportunities, such as ethnic enclaves providing proximity to centers of cultural significance, or business, social networks and communities to help immigrants preserve cultural identify and establish 14 Orange County, Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice, April 2020 DRAFT.

Overall, it is important to study and identify these areas in order to understand patterns of segregation and poverty in a City. The 2020 Al performed an analysis of R/ECAPs within Orange County and found four R/ECAPs, none of which were found in Newport Beach. However, two of the four were found in the neighboring City of Irvine, adjacent to one another and near the University of California; these both bordered the City of Newport Beach. According to the Al, it is likely that they qualify as R/ECAPs due to the high proportions of students. These R/ECAPs have a much more diverse group of residents, with some White, Asian or Pacific Islander, Hispanic and Black residents. These R/ECAPs primarily contain Asian or Pacific Islander or Hispanic residents. 23.49% of residents are White, 1.63% are Black, 48.50% are Hispanic, 23.70% are Asian or Pacific Islander, and 0.14% are Native American. Figure 3-3 below identifies low poverty index with race/ethnicity and R/ECAPs in Newport Beach, and the overall Orange County region. The low poverty index captures the depth and intensity of poverty in a given neighborhood. The index uses both family poverty rates and public assistance receipt, in the form of cash -welfare, such as Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF). The poverty rate and public assistance for neighborhoods are determined at the census tract level, and the higher the score, the less exposure to poverty in a neighborhood. The map identifies the R/ECAP and a few surrounding neighborhoods, to the south and southeast, The figure identifies R/ECAP areas (outlined in red) bordering the City of Newport Beach, near the University of California, Irvine. The map also shows that there are few R/ECAPs in the County as a whole, with a few pockets in the City of Santa Ana. Overall, the City of Newport Beach is a high income areas, with majority of the population identifying as white. The City should consider the impact of high cost of housing and higher annual incomes on lower income households. The current financial circumtance combined with the recent housing boom can create displacement through economic pressures, where lower income households need to look for affordable housing outside of the City.

However, patterns of segregation in the United States show that of all racial groups, people who identify as White are the most severely segregated.15 Research also identifies segregation of affluence to be -greater than the segregation of poverty. Racial and economic segregation can have significant effects on respective communities, including but not limited to, socioeconomic disparities, educational experiences and benefits, exposure to environmental conditions and crime, and access to public goods and services. Data used in the analysis of RCAA is from the 2012-2016 American Community Survey and are measured at the census track level. The definition for an RCAA is a census tract in which 80 percent or more of the population is White and has a median income of at least $125,000. The nationwide RCAA analysis identifies the following: • RCAA tracts have more than twice the median household income of the average tract in their metro area. • Poverty rates in RCAAs are significantly lower and are, on average about 20 percent of a typical tract. • RCAAs tracts are more income homogenous than RECAPS. • The average RCAA is about 57 percent affluent, whereas the average RECAP had a poverty rate of 48 percent. • The typical RCAA tract has a rate of affluence 3.2 times that of a typical tract, whereas RECAPS on average had a poverty rate 3.2 times that of a typical tract Overall, RCCAs may represent a public policy issue to the extent that they have been created and maintained through exclusionary and discriminatory land use and development practices. Postwar patterns of suburbanization in many metropolitan areas were characterized by White communities erecting barriers to affordable housing and engaging in racially exclusionary practices. 16 Currently (October 2020), there is no consolidated database to identify RCAAs, therefore, to identify these areas in Newport Beach, this analysis examines census tracts with a population gap that is greater than 50% between the nonwhite and white population and a median income over $100,000. Table 3-152-X below displays the RCAA data for the County of Orange and Newport Beach. Additionally, Table 3-162-X below shows local (Newport Beach) and regional (Orange County) context for the median household incomes of white residents.

The goal of the ROI is to help target resources and policies toward people and places with the greatest need to foster thriving communities. The R01 incorporates both "people" and "place components, integrating economic, infrastructure, environmental, and social indicators into a comprehensive assessment of the factors driving opportunity." As shown in Figures 3-64 and Figure 3-7-5 below, the majority of the City of Newport Beach is classified as a high opportunity zone. This indicates a high level of relative opportunities that people can achieve as well as a high level of relative opportunities that Newport Beach provides. While most of the census tracts within the City are areas of high opportunity, there are two census tracts within the ROI People Index shown as yellow, identifying a low opportunity area. Together these areas contain 86 sites which accommodate 1,941 potential units designated to meet the City's RHNA for lower-income units (shown in Section 3: Housing Resources and outlined in Appendix B). The Data for both regions with lower opportunity show high civic life, health, transportation, economic and education access, however, both show very low housing access. Therefore, the consideration and identification of these areas for housing, affordable to low and very low-income households, will provide increased housing opportunity in high opportunity and high resources areas.

The data shows the following key findings: • The City has higher rates of college educated adults, high school graduation rates and higher levels of UC and CSU eligibility. Additionally, the City has higher levels of Math and English proficiency. However, the City has higher levels of truancy and discipline rates. • Newport Beach residents experience significantly higher basic income levels and higher employment rates. While the City has a higher job availability rate and job quality, overall, both City and State job growth are similar. Newport Beach residents have higher rates of bank accessibility (nearly double the state's accessibility rates). • Newport Beach and the State have the same rate of home ownership, but residents of Newport Beach experience higher rates of cost burden. Housing adequacy and affordability are similar in both the City and State, where California has a slightly higher rate of affordability. • Mobility and transportation access are moderate in both Newport Beach and the State. Newport Beach residents have a significantly higher commute times than the State's median, this could be due in part to a lack of public transit or the development patterns of coastal communities. • Overall health and environmental opportunities are comparable to the State, the City's air quality is slightly lower than the States. Newport Beach has a slightly lower average of supermarket availability, however a much higher rate of healthcare availability. • Newport Beach has higher rates of US citizenship and English speakers, as well as a higher percentage of voters compared to the State. However, Newport Beach has a slightly lower rate of neighborhood stability In summary, Newport Beach is a high opportunity area with quality education opportunities, high rates of resident achievement, access to local and regional economic and employment opportunities, and high rates of home ownership. However, the data shows that there are high rates of cost burden in the City and slightly lower access to supermarkets and healthy foods. The City should focus on increasing access to affordable housing options to reduce cost burden and aim to increase affordable healthy food access.

The Task Fforce developed the TCAC/HCD opportunity Area Maps to understand how public and private resources are spatially distributed. The Task force defines opportunities as pathways to better lives, including health, education, and employment. Overall, opportunity maps are intended to display which areas, according to research, offer low-income children and adults the best chance at economic advancement, high educational attainment, and good physical and mental health. According to the Task Force's methodology, the tool allocates the 20 percent of the tracts in each region with the highest relative index scores to the "Highest Resource" designation and the next 20 percent to the "High Resource" designation. Each region then ends up with 40 percent of its total tracts as "Highest" or "High" resource. These two categories are intended to help State decision -makers identify tracts within each region that the research suggests low-income families are most likely to thrive, and where they typically do not have the option to live—but might, if given the choice. As shown in Figure 3-96 below, nearly all of Newport Beach is classified as moderate, high, and highest resource. There is one census tract in the Northwest Portion of Newport Beach classifies as low resource, the tracts scores identify high economic resources and low educational resources. Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-77 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022NOVEMBER 2924) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Figure 3-96: TCAC/HCD Opportunity Area Maps, Newport Beach (2020) Source: California Tax Credit Allocation Committee and Department of Housing and Community Development, 2020. Access to neighborhoods with higher levels of opportunity can be more difficult due to discrimination and when there may not be a sufficient range and supply of housing in such neighborhoods. In addition, the continuing legacy of discrimination and segregation can impact the availability of quality infrastructure, educational resources, environmental protections, and economic drivers, all of which can create disparities in access to opportunity. The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) developed the opportunity indicators to help inform communities about disparities in access to opportunity, the scores are based on nationally available data sources and assess resident's access to key opportunity assets in the City. Table 3-184-5 provides the index scores (ranging from zero to 100) for the following opportunity indicator indices: • Low Poverty Index: The low poverty index captures poverty in a given neighborhood. The poverty rate is determined at the census tract level. The higher the score, the less exposure to poverty in a neighborhood. • School Proficiency Index: The school proficiency index uses school -level data on the performance of 4th grade students on state exams to describe which neighborhoods have high -performing elementary schools nearby and which are near lower performing elementary schools. The higher the score, the higher the school system quality is in a neighborhood. • Labor Market Engagement Index: The labor market engagement index provides a summary description of the relative intensity of labor market engagement and human capital in a neighborhood. This is based upon the level of employment, labor force participation, and Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-78 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022NOVE-nnQro 20-24) J� 7 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT educational attainment in a census tract. The higher the score, the higher the labor force participation and human capital in a neighborhood. • Transit Trips Index: This index is based on estimates of transit trips taken by a family that meets the following description: a three-person single -parent family with income at 50% of the median - income for renters for the region (i.e. the Core -Based Statistical Area (CBSA)). The higher the transit trips index, the more likely residents in that neighborhood utilize public transit. • Low Transportation Cost Index: This index is based on estimates of transportation costs for a family that meets the following description: a three-person single -parent family with income at 50 percent of the median -income for renters for the region/CBSA. The higher the index, the lower the cost of transportation in that neighborhood. • Jobs Proximity Index: The jobs proximity index quantifies the accessibility of a given residential neighborhood as a function of its distance to all job locations within a region/CBSA, with larger employment centers weighted more heavily. The higher the index value, the better the access to employment opportunities for residents in a neighborhood. • Environmental Health Index: The environmental health index summarizes potential exposure to harmful toxins at a neighborhood level. The higher the index value, the less exposure to toxins harmful to human health. Therefore, the higher the value, the better the environmental quality of a neighborhood, where a neighborhood is a census block -group. Table 3-185 below displays the opportunity indices by race and ethnicity for persons in Newport Beach. The table displays the following results: • According to the data, there is low poverty among the population of Newport, across all racial/ethnic groups. • Additionally, the access to quality education system is high among all racial/ethnic groups (each group has an opportunity index score above 80). • The data shows the City offers high labor and economic opportunity as well as sufficient access to transportation. • While the data shows a high access to transportation, however it also shows that the transportation is less affordable, specifically to non -Hispanic Asian or Pacific Islander and Native American populations. • The data also shows low environmental health index scores across all racial/ethnic groups, below 50. • Households who earn below the poverty rate in Newport Beach have lower levels of opportunity access across all indicators as well as race and ethnicities.

These schools coordinate and integrate resources and services from federal, state, and local sources. To be considered for Title 1 school funds, at least 40 percent of the students must be considered low-income. Additionally, the data shows that the City has an annual unemployment rate of 3.1%. Additionally, over 69.4 percent of residents has commute that is 30 -minutes or less. T eThe City of Newport Beach provides a variety of economic opportunities for current and future residents; however, the data shows there is little educational opportunities for lower achieving students.

It can also increase accessibility to essential retail such as grocers and markets as well as recreational activities and safe transit options for young adults and children. AIITransit explores metrics that reveal the social and economic impact of transit, specifically looking at connectivity, access to jobs, and frequency of service. According to the data shown in Table 3- , Newport Beach scored a 3.9 AIITransit performance score, illustrating a low combination of trips per week and number of jobs accessible that enable a moderate number of people to take transit to work. In total, 138,164 jobs are accessible within a 30 -minute trip from Newport Beach, however just 0.55 percent of commuters use transit. Additionally, AIITransit identified the following transit related statistics for Newport Beach: • 95.4 percent of all jobs in Newport Beach are located within % mile of transit • There are 53,761 customer households within a 30 -minute transit commute of local businesses • 1.86 percent of workers in Newport Beach walk to work • 1.02 percent of workers in Newport Beach bike to work • 0 percent of low-income households live near transit By comparison, Newport Beach scored lower than neighboring jurisdictions of Costa Mesa (5.4), Huntington Beach (4.4), and Irvine (3.6), however slightly higher than Laguna Beach (3.8). Overall, the City of Newport Beach has a lower AIITransit score than the County of Orange (3.9 in Newport B ach and 4.2 in the County).

Environmental Justice The California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) developed a screening methodology to help identify California communities disproportionately burdened by multiple sources of pollution called the California Communities Environmental Health Screening Tool (CalEnviroScreen). In addition to environmental factors (pollutant exposure, groundwater threats, toxic sites, and hazardous materials exposure) and sensitive receptors (seniors, children, persons with asthma, and low birth weight infants), CalEnviroScreen also takes into consideration socioeconomic factors. These factors include educational attainment, linguistic isolation, poverty, and unemployment.

Environmental Justice The California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) developed a screening methodology to help identify California communities disproportionately burdened by multiple sources of pollution called the California Communities Environmental Health Screening Tool (CalEnviroScreen). In addition to environmental factors (pollutant exposure, groundwater threats, toxic sites, and hazardous materials exposure) and sensitive receptors (seniors, children, persons with asthma, and low birth weight infants), CalEnviroScreen also takes into consideration socioeconomic factors. These factors include educational attainment, linguistic isolation, poverty, and unemployment. Research has shown a heightened vulnerability of people of certain ethnicities and lower socioeconomic status to environmental pollutants. The CalEnviro Model Is made up of a suite of 20 statewide indicators of pollution burden and population characteristics associated with increased vulnerability to pollution's health effects. The model uses the follow analysis and calculation to identify areas which may create health risk: Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-85 (DRAFT JANUARY 20221NOVE-nnQro 20-24) City of Newport Beachk.� z 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT • Uses a weighted scoring system to derive average pollution burden and population characteristics scores for each census tract. • Calculates a final CalEnviro-Screen score for a given census tract relative to the other tracts in the state by multiplying the pollution burden and population characteristics components together. • The score measures the relative pollution burdens and vulnerabilities in one census tract compared to others and is not a measure of health risk. Figure 3-13XX below displays the results for the CalEnviro-Screen in Newport Beach. The data shows that all of Newport Beach is low to lowest scoring (light to dark green), meaning that throughout the City there is low proximity or exposure to harmful pollutants. Compared to the region, majority of the coastal cities are identified as low oollutant burdens. Cities to the east of Newoort beach. such as Santa. Ana. Anaheim. Orange, and Garden Grove experience higher rates of pollution burdens and exposure to harmful pollutants. The discrepancy in pollution exposure could be related to cost of land. Land in Newport Beach is significantly more expensive than land in Anaheim, Santa Ana and Garden Grove, therefore, warehouse and industrial developers can buy larger lots of land for less money to accommodate manufacturing, trucking, industrial parks and other uses which produces higher traffic and pollution.

Appendix B of this Housing Element shows the City's ability to meet its 2021-2029 RHNA need at all income levels. This demonstrates the City's ability to accommodate the anticipated future affordable housing needs of the community. Existing Need As described in Section 3.F.1 of this Housing Element, the Orange County Housing Authority administers Section 8 Housing Choice vouchers within the City of Newport Beach. As of October 30, 2020, the City has allocated 112 Section 8 vouchers to residents within the community: 30 for families, 20 for persons with disabilities, and 62 for seniors. Additionally, a variety of affordable housing opportunities currently exist in the City. In Orange County, each category of publicly supported housing (public housing, Project Based Section 8, Other Multi -unit Housing, Housing Choice Vouchers, and Low -Income Housing Tax Credit [LIHTC] units) is represented, although that representation varies greatly depending on the individual municipality. Table 3-2116 below identifies the variety of publicly supported housing, by percent, in the City of Newport Beach. Table 3-2116 below displays the demographics of all publicly supported housing in Newport Beach.

Homelessness People experiencing homelessness are those who do not have a fixed, regular, and adequate overnight residence, or whose overnight residence is a shelter, street, vehicle, or enclosure or structure unfit for habitation. Factors contributing to increases of homelessness may include the following: • Lack available resources to support stable housing access • Spikes in rent increase and lack of tenant protections • Housing discrimination • Evictions • Lack of housing affordable to low- and moderate -income persons • Increases in the number of persons whose incomes fall below the poverty level • Reductions in public subsidies to the poor • The deinstitutionalization of the mentallv ill According to the Orange County Point in Time report, in 2019 there were an estimate 64 unhoused persons in Newport Beach. Overall, the 64 unhouse persons in Newport Beach- in 2019 account for about 1.6 Dercent of the overall Oranee Countv count of 3.961 Dersons. When contextualized with the total number of people residing in Newport Beach, the 64 homeless individuals represent approximately .07 percent of the population. In neighboring jurisdictions, the point in time count of homeless persons in 2021 was: • Huntington Beach: 349 persons • Laguna Beach: 147 persons • Irvine: 130 persons • Costa Mesa: 193 Dersons Data for 2020 and 2021 is not broken down by individual jurisdiction. However, in 2020 there were a total of 3,017 persons experiencing homelessness in Orange County and 2,441 persons in 2021. The racial and ethnic demographic data for unhoused persons in 2021 is not broken down by jurisdictions, however for the 2,441 unhoused persons in the County, 10 percent experienced chronic homelessness. Additionally, 77 percent identified as White, 12 percent identified as Black, three (3) percent identified as American Indian, less than one (1) persons identified as Native Hawaiian and 45 percent identified as Hispanic or Latino. About 295 persons were seniors (60 years+) and about 102 persons were youth, 288 persons were experiencing domestic violence and 162 persons were veterans. Of the persons living in shelters, 334 experience mental health conditions, 308 persons experience a physical disability, and 297 persons recorded substance abuse. 17 Disabili Table 3-2244 displays the data for persons with disabilities in the City, County, and State.

Additionally, Table 3-2 displays data for overcrowding in the State, County and City. Overcrowding is defined as between 1.01 and 1.5 persons per room in a household, and severe overcrowding is defined as more than 1.51 persons per room. Overcrowding often occurs when nonfamily members combine incomes to live in one household, such as college students and roommates, it also occurs when there not enough size appropriate housing options for large or multigenerational families. The City experiences very low rates of overcrowding in comparison to the County and the State. According to the data, overcrowding occurs more frequently in renter households rather than owner households. In Newport Beach, owner households that are severely overcrowded represent 0 percent of all households, while severely overcrowded renter households represent 0.3 percent.

Table 3-2 below shows data for occupied housing units by type. A variety of housing stock provides increased opportunity in communities for different size and households types. The majority of housing stock in Newport Beach is classified as one -unit -detached housing, or single-family housing. Just under 18 percent of Newport Beach homes include 20 or more units, referred to as multi -family housing. In comparison to the County Orange has a greater amount of single-family homes, and an overall smaller number multi -family housing (2 or more units). Table 3 -2u -s: Occupied Housing Units by Tvoe.

Table 3-2_ . below displays housing stock by year built or the City, County, and State. A factor used to determine housing condition is the age and state of the hom, Older housing generally requires more upkeep, regular maintenance and can cause a cost burden on both renters and homeowners. Majority of Newport Beach's housing stock was built between 1960 and 1999. Development shows to have slowed significantly in the City after 2010, which could be indicative of the Great Recession. Majority of the County's and State's housing units were built between 1980 and 2009 whereas the distribution of development was more dispersed from 1950 to 1990 in the State. -Majority of Newport Beach's homes are E)veF betwee over between 40 and 70 vears old. built between 1950 and 1979 (53.4 percent). Homes over 50 years old have an increased likelihood of needing more major repairs to key systems and building components. Therefore, these homes are at a higher risk of needing repair or replacement. Overall, increased numbers of older housing which is not maintained can lead to cost burden and substandard living conditions. Table 3-294: Housing Unit by Tvpe.

Substandard units are those in need of repair or replacement. Based on 2019 ACS data. one (1) Dercent of housing units in Newport Beach display substandard conditions. Approximately .03 percent of housing units lack complete plumbing facilities and .08 percent lack complete kitchen facilities. Based on this data, at a minimum 377 units (1 percent) within Newport Beach are substandard and in need of rehabilitation. In the Orange County Area, 1.5 percent of homes are considered substandard, lacking complete kitchen or plumbing facilities. The current distribution of the age of homes in Newport Beach also indicates that a majority of homes in the City were built prior to the 1990 Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), which may result in a lack of accessible homes for those residents experiencing a disability. The City's older housing stock also reflects a rapidly gaining need to rehabilitate housing to meet minimum livability and quality requirements, which is a barrier to many homeowners and residents in Newport who have a lower income or a fixed income. However. the Citv of Newport Beach is moderate and above moderate income, therefore. substandard housing and units in need of rehabilitation may be Dassed on to renters with moderate to lower incomes. Displacement Risk The potential for economic displacement risk can result from a variety of factors, including large-scale development activity, neighborhood reinvestment, infrastructure investments, and changes in local and regional employment opportunity. Economic displacement can be an inadvertent result of public and private investment, where individuals and families may not be able to keep pace with increased property values and market rental rates. Urban Displacement The Urban Displacement Proiect developed a neighborhood change database to map neighborhood transformations and identify areas vulnerable to gentrification and displacement. This data was developed to assist local decision makers and stakeholders better plan for existing communities and provide additional resources to areas in need or at -risk of displacement and gentrification. Table 3-30X provides the criteria used to identify each displacement typology and the total number of Newport Beach Census Tracts that currently fall within each category.

Table 3-30X and Figure 3-22X show that all of Newport Beach is considered stable/advanced exclusive. Stable advanced exlusive means the households in the census tracts have high and above moderate incomes and that there is either little change in the cost of housing or rapid increases. Stable exclusive areas also means that it is very difficult for lower and moderate income hosueholds to partake in the housing market through ownership, and there is little mobility and fewer options in terms of rentership. The City of Newport Beach is one of the highest income cities in the County, consistent with income data for manv coastal cities in Southern California. aarticularly Orange Countv.

To address the risk of affordable units converting to market rate housing, the City has identified Programs 5A and 5C to monitor these units. The City will actively work to create programs and seek additional funding in which the focus is to preserve these units beyond the expiration of the covenant so that the owners are able to have affordable housing options. Resources to Preserve At -Risk Units A variety of programs exist to help cities acquire, replace, or subsidize at -risk affordable housing units. The following summarizes financial resources available: • Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) — CDBG funds are awarded to cities on a formula basis for housing activities. The primary objective of the CDBG program is the development of viable communities through the provision of decent housing, a suitable living environment and economic opportunity for principally low- and moderate -income persons. Eligible activities include administration, fair housing, energy conservation and renewable energy sources, assistance for economic development, public facilities and improvements and public services. • HOME Investment Partnership — Local jurisdiction can receive funds by formula from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to increase the supply of decent, safe, Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-109 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT sanitary, and affordable housing to lower income households. Eligible activities include housing acquisition, rehabilitation, and development, homebuyer assistance, and rental assistance. • Section 8 Rental Assistance Program — The Section 8 Rental Assistance Program provides rental assistance payments to owners of private, market rate units on behalf of very low-income tenants, senior citizens, disabled and/or handicapped persons, and other individuals for securing affordable housing. • Section 202/811 Program — Non-profit and consumer cooperatives can receive no -interest capital advances from HUD under the Section 202 program for the construction of very low-income rental housing with the availability of supportive services for seniors and persons with disabilities. These funds can be used in conjunction with Section 811, which can be used to develop group homes, independent living facilities and immediate care facilities. The capital advance funding can also provide project rental assistance for the properties developed using the funds. Eligible activities include acquisition, rehabilitation, new construction, and rental assistance. • California Housing Finance Agency (CaIHFA) Multifamily Programs — CaIHFA's Multifamily Programs provide permanent financing for the acquisition, rehabilitation, and preservation or new construction of rental housing that includes affordable rents for low- and moderate -income families and individuals. One of the programs is the Preservation Loan program which provides acquisition/rehabilitation and permanent loan financing designed to preserve or increase the affordability status of existing multifamily housing projects. • Low -Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) — This program provides tax credits to individuals and corporations that invest in low-income rental housing. Tax credits are sold to those with high tax liability and proceeds are used to create housing. Eligible activities include new construction, rehabilitation, and acquisition of properties. • California Community Reinvestment Corporation (CCRC) — The California Community Reinvestment Corporation is a multifamily affordable housing lender whose mission is to increase the availability of affordable housing for low-income families, seniors, and residents with special needs by facilitating private capital flow from its investors for debt and equity to developers of affordable housing. Eligible activities include new construction, rehabilitation, and acquisition of properties. Qualified Entities to Preserve At -Risk Units The following organizations may potentially assist in preserving future at -risk units: • Jamboree Housing Corporation • Irvine Housing Opportunities, Inc. • Bridge Housing Corporation • The Irvine Company • Orange County Housing Authority • Housing Corporation of America • Southern California Housing Development Corporation • Century Housing Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-110 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022NOVEMBER 2924) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Quantified Objectives Housing Element law requires that cities establish the maximum number of units that can be preserved over the planning period.

Urban nisplacemer* Analysi- The UC Berkeley Urban Displacement projects provides a database for Los Angeles, Orange and San Diego Counties displaying gentrifications and socioeconomic indicators based on 2015 ACS data. The final (2018) version of the database shows whether each Census tract comprising these three Southern California counties gentrified between 1990 and 2000; gentrified between 2000 and 2015; gentrified during both of these periods; or exhibited characteristics of a "disadvantaged" tract that did not gentrify between 1990 and 2015.

Under this legislation, municipal and county agencies are restricted in ordinances and policies that can be applied to residential development. The revised definition of "Housing Development" now contains residential projects of two or more units, mixed-use projects (with two-thirds of the floor area designated for residential use), transitional, supportive, and emergency housing projects. SB330 sets a temporary 5 -year prohibition of residential density reduction associated with a "housing development project," from January 1, 2020, to January 1, 2025. For example, during this temporary prohibition, a residential triplex cannot be demolished and replaced with a duplex as this would be a net loss of one unit. None of the housing strategy sites contain significant existing housing with low-income tenants who will be displaced if the sites redevelop. To the extent that there is existing housing, all housing must be replaced (Government Code Section 66300). The City of Newport Beach has developed an informative webpage on SB 330 available for the public. The State has also adopted just cause eviction provisions and statewide rent control to protect tenants from displacement. The City is committed to making diligent efforts to engage underrepresented and disadvantaged communities in studying displacement. Assessment of Contributing Factors to Fair Housing Issues in Newport Beach The Al identifies the following regional goals for mitigating impediments to fair housing within jurisdictions in Orange County: • Goal 1: Increase the supply of affordable housing in high opportunity areas.1 • Goal 2: Prevent displacement of low- and moderate -income residents with protected characteristics, including Hispanic residents, Vietnamese residents, other seniors, and people with disabilities • Goal 3: Increase community integration for persons with disabilities. • Goal 4: Ensure equal access to housing for persons with protected characteristics, who are disproportionately likely to be lower-income and to experience homelessness. • Goal 5: Expand access to opportunity for protected classes. Summary of Fair Housing Analysis The Housing Element programs incorporate these recommended goals as they relate to Newport Beach. The analysis above regarding other fair housing issues within Newport Beach yields the following results: • The City does not have any racial or ethnic groups that score higher than 60 on the dissimilarity index. However, those who identify as Native Hawaiian, Asian, American Indian, Black and Some Other Race experience moderate levels of segregation (a dissimilarity index of greater than 30).

This indicates that there are no census tracts within Newport Beach with a non-white population of 50 percent or more or any census tracts that have a poverty rate that exceeds 40% or is three or more times the average tract poverty rate for the metropolitan/micropolitan area. However, one R/ECAP was identified in the neighboring city of Irvine, near the University of California Irvine. This will be considered in the housing plan as students within the R/ECAP may look for housing in Newport Beach. • The UC Davis Regional Opportunity Index shows that the majority of residents within Newport Beach have a high level of access to opportunity throughout the majority of the City, with only two census tracts showing a moderate level of access to opportunity. No census tracts were shown as having the lowest level of access to opportunity. The City should focus on increasing resources, housing opportunity and encourage economic development in these areas. • The analysis of the TCAC/HCD opportunity Area Maps show that most census tracts in Newport Beach are classified with the "Moderate Resource" "High Resource" or "Highest Resource" designation. This indicates that these census tracts are within the top forty percent in the region in terms of areas that lower-income residents may thrive if given the opportunity to live there. All but two census tracts within Newport Beach register within the top 20 percent in the index. One census tract registered as a "Low Resource" area, citing high economic opportunity and low educational opportunity. The Opportunity Indices identify overall high access to quality resources including economic and job proximity, educational access, and transportation access. However, there is a low health index, indicating increased pollution and low environmental quality across all racial/ethnic groups in the City. Additionally, the opportunity indices identify low affordable transportation options to both the Asian or Pacific Islander (Non -Hispanic) and Native American (Non -Hispanic). Key Findings from Fair Housing Analysis As a Dart of the Housing Element. the Citv considers protected class (such as race. ethnicitv. income. etc. and opportunity indicators as key factors in fair housing. Federal, state, and local data provide regional context, background information and supportive data which helps the City to understand fair housing issues and to identify key fair housing factors for Newport Beach. The section below uses available data to identifv kev trends and local contributing factors for fair housing. kev themes identified through this analvsis are stated below: • Persons who identifv as Native Hawaiian or Other experience the moderate levels of segregation with persons who identify as White in the City of Newport Beach. • The City has twelve census tracts characterized as Racially Concentrated Areas of Affluence (RCCA) and no R/ECAPs. • Residents of Newport Beach are more likelv to experience high housing cost burden as homeowners. Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-115 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022NOVE-nnQro 20-24) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT • Persons who earn incomes below the poverty rate are more likely to have lower access to opportunities as indicated by the Opportunity Indices analysis. Local Contributing Factors to Fair Housing There are a number of factors and elements that contribute to and cause fair housing issues. The following lists a number of contributing factors within the Citv of Newport Beach: • Opportunities for Persons with Disabilities — The analysis shows disability and access as possible fair housing issues in Newport Beach. In comparison to Figure D-14, the City shows a moderate portion of residents report at least one disability (10 percent) as well as some census tracts reporting 10-20 percent having a disability. While the City is considered a high opportunity area, residents with disabilities may have lower access to resources and information. Housing Goals #3: Increase communitv integration for persons with disabilities. Housing Goal #4: Ensure eaual access to housing for persons with protected characteristics, who are disproportionately likely to be lower-income and to experience homelessness, and Housing Goal #5: Expand access to opportunity for protected classes. • Expansion of Opportunities in Lower Resource Areas — While the Citv of Newport Beach is considered a moderate to high resource region, some parts of the City are characterized as lower opportunity zones as depicted in Figure 3-6. When compared to the CalEnviroScreen map in Figure 3-13, the low resource areas align with regions identified at the highest degree of pollution burdens. Various Housing Programs have been adopted to ensure opportunities for residents in low opportunity areas. Housing Goal #5: Expand access to opportunity for protected classes. ' Ana/vsis of Sites Pursuant to AB 686 AB 686 requires that jurisdictions identify sites throughout the community in a manner that is consistent with its duty to affirmatively further fair housing. The site identification requirement involves not only an analysis of site capacity to accommodate the RHNA (provided in Appendix B), but also whether the identified sites serve the purpose of replacing segregated living patterns with truly integrated and balanced living patterns, transforming racially and ethnically concentrated areas of poverty into areas of opportunity. Figures 3-24-7 through 3- below identify the sites to accommodate future housing, as identified in the adequate sites analysis, overlaid on demographic data using the 2018 American Community Survey 5 -year Estimates. • Figure 3-c4f — Newport Beach Proposed RHNA Sites, Hispanic/Latino, 2019 • Figure 3-259— Newport Beach Proposed RHNA Sites, Non -White Population 2019 • Figure 3-265— Newport Beach Proposed RHNA Sites, Low and Moderate -Income, 2019 Figure 3-24-7 shows the proposed candidate sites to meet the RHNA for Newport Beach in relation to the location of residents of Hispanic origin. These sites take into consideration access to vital goods, services, and public transportation and are therefore ideal areas for the City to focus much of its future housing growth. It is anticipated that accessory dwelling unit (ADU) growth, including growth for affordable ADUs, will occur in the less dense areas of the community. Figure 3-24' shows the following findings: Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-116 (DRAFT JANUARY 2022NQVr_mnnQro 2024 ) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT • 291 proposed sites to accommodate the RHNA allocation (totaling 20,999 potential units, or 94% of the total potential units) are located within block groups that have a percentage of the population that identifies as Hispanic below 20 percent. • 3 proposed sites to accommodate the RHNA allocation (totaling 153 potential units, or 1% of the total potential units) are located within block groups that have a percentage of the population that identifies as Hispanic between 20 and 40 percent. • 17 proposed sites to accommodate the RHNA allocation (totaling 920 potential units, or 4% of the total potential units) are located within block groups that have a percentage of the population that identifies as Hispanic between 40 and 60 percent. • 2 proposed sites to accommodate the RHNA allocation (totaling 188 potential units, or 1% of the total potential units) are located within block groups that have a percentage of the population that identifies as Hispanic between 60 and 80 percent.

Thus, the concentrations of low- and very low-income sites located in the northern, western, and central areas of the City would not exacerbate the current conditions in these areas. Racially and Ethnically Concentrated Areas of Poverty and Affluence The HUD R/ECAP maps do not identify any racially or ethnically concentrated areas of poverty in Newport Beach. The analysis conducted for this housing element concluded that there are approximately 12 census tracts that are considered racially concentrated areas of affluence (RCAA) in the City. The RCAA areas are clustered throughout the City predominately in the east and along the southern and western boundaries of the City. The concentrations of lower income siteshouseholds located in the northern, western, and central areas of the City are in high income areas surrounded by RCAAs. Theplaeen+entlocation of these sitesarea provides affordable housing opportunities within areas with high access to resources. Access to Opportunity The majority of the City is considered highest resource according to the TCAC Opportunity Map composite score. The majority of the sites identified in the sites inventory are located in the highest resource areas which will give households access to more opportunities and resources. Transit According to AIITransit the City of Newport Beach has a low transit performance score overall. The City has identified a significant number of low- and very low-income housing opportunity sites in the Airport Area Environs in the north, the West Newport Mesa Area in the west, and the Newport Center Area in the central area of the City. These three areas of the City have high connectivity scores compared to other areas throughout the City. Households within these areas have better access to jobs and key destinations through transit than those located elsewhere in the City. The majority of the low- and very low-income sites were strategically located within the Airport Area Environs, West Newport Mesa Area, and the Newport Center Area to take advantage of the increased transportation assets within these areas. Environmental OEHHA's California Communities Environmental Health Screening Tool considers the City of Newport Beach as having a primarily low pollution burden through the entire City. There are concentrations of low - and very low-income sites located in the northern, western, and central areas of the City which have low to moderate pollution burdens. The Northern area, identified as Airport Area Environs, has the highest pollution burden scoring in the 43rd percentile due to high exposure scores from traffic related pollutants. The northern area was selected to accommodate a number of housing opportunity sites due to its higher access to transit amenities and reduced, but high land values. Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-123 (DRAFT NP.MnrQro'n"JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Disproportionate Housin_-g Needs Disability The City of Newport Beach has a fairly low disabled population. With a higher representation of persons with disabilities located throughout the greater central area of the City. The sites inventory has identified a concentration of low- and very low-income sites located in the Newport Center Area. The placement of these sites was strategically located to increase affordable housing opportunities where persons with disabilities are already present as well as where there are nearby service amenities which can provide increased housing security for the City's disabled population. Income The maioritv of the Citv has low rates of 000ulations categorized as low- to moderate -income. The northern, western, and central areas of the City have higher rates of residents considered to be low- to moderate -income. The sites inventory predominately concentrates low- and very low-income sites within the Airport Area Environs. West Newoort Mesa Area. and Newoort Center Area as thev have the highest opportunities ratings, moderate or highest resource ratings, and higher transit connectivity. The low- and very low-income site within these areas will provide increased affordable housing options where there are higher rates of lower-income residents. Additionally, the majority of the selected sites throughout the Citv are Dlanned to accommodate mixed -income housing units which will Drevent exacerbating the concentrations of lower income households. Overpayment The City of Newport Beach experiences low to moderate rates of overpayment generally with only one census tract in the central area of the City experiencing high rates of overpayment. Site selection emphasized the development of multifamily and mixed-use housing within six focus areas that will be rezoned to allow for high-density housing. Housing located throughout the City's six focus areas will facilitate additional affordable units through multifamily development. The low- and very low-income sites associated with the residential development in the central area of the City will provide access to supportive services such as lob opportunity and transit amenities and will ensure that there are affordable housing options in geographical areas that are experiencing moderate to high rates of overpayment. Overcrowding The entirety of the City experiences low rates of overcrowding. The placement of lower and moderate- to above moderate -income sites throughout the six focus areas within the City will not exacerbate any instances of overcrowding as additional housing develoament at all income levels would alleviate impacts of overcrowdi 5. Analysis of Fair Housing Priorities and Goals To enhance mobility and promote inclusion for protected classes, the chief strategy included in this housing element is to provide sites suitable for affordable housing in high -resource, high opportunity Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-124 (DRAFT NP./AnrQro'n"JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT areas, as demonstrated by the analysis of the housing resource sites contained in this section. Other programs that affirmatively further fair housing include: • Policy Action 4A: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing • Policy Action 7A: Supportive Housing / Low Barrier Navigation Centers • Policy Action 713: Transitional and Supportive Housing • Policy Action 7C: Housing for Persons with Developmental Disabilities • Policy Action 71): Fair Housing Services 1. Re nal Needs Allocation This section of the Housing Element provides an overview of the resources available to the City to meet their Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA). Residential Sites Inventory Appendix B of the Housing Element includes the required site analysis tables and site information for the vacant and non -vacant properties to meet the City's RHNA need through the 2021-2029 planning period. The following discussions summarize the City's site inventory and rezone plan. Above Moderate- and Moderate -Income Sites For the 2021-2029 planning period, the City's RHNA allocation is 1,050 for moderate -income site and 1,409 for above moderate -income sites. The City anticipates current planned growth, projects already in the approval process, to entirely meet the above moderate -income need within the planning period. The City will meet the moderate -income need through a combination of existing capacity on residentially zoned land, through the redevelopment of parcels rezoned within the focus areas, and through the development of accessory dwelling units (ADUs). A total of 287 moderate -income and 40 above moderate -income units can be accommodated through existing zoning capacity on parcels. By subtracting existing units from maximum potential unit yield per parcel, the City projected additional capacity on several parcels. Each parcel included in the inventory was then vetted for likelihood of redevelopment and to ensure all HCD criteria were met. The required descriptive information for these sites can be found within Appendix B. An additional 72 moderate and 5 above moderate -income units can be accommodated through the development of ADUs throughout the community. This is based on the methodology described within Appendix D: Accessory Dwelling Units and incorporates guidance from HCD's Housing Element Site Inventory Guidebook. A supplemental 5,540-613 moderate and above moderate -income units can be accommodated through the rezone strategies proposed for six focus areas throughout the City.

Reasonable Capacity Assumptions This section describes the methodology developed to determine the site capacity for the moderate and above moderate -income sites. The City assumes that above moderate -income units will develop at a maximum up eight dwelling units per acre, and that moderate -income units will develop at a maximum of 26 dwelling units per acre. Reasonable capacity for sites identified to meet the City's moderate and above moderate need was calculated based on a number of factors, including site size, existing zoning requirements, vacancy and total number of units entitled, and the maximum density achievable for projects within the following zones: • MU -MM — Mixed -Use Mariners' Mile: The MU -MM Zoning District is intended to provide areas for the development of mixed-use structures that vertically integrate residential dwelling units above the ground floor with retail uses including office, restaurant, and retail. The zone permits a density range of 20.1— 26.7 dwelling units per acre. • MU -W1 — Mixed -Use Water: This zoning district applies to waterfront properties along the Mariners' Mile Corridor in which nonresidential uses and residential dwelling units may be intermixed. A minimum of fifty (50) percent of the allowed square footage in a mixed-use development shall be used for nonresidential uses in which marine -related and visitor -serving land uses are mixed. This zone permits a density range of up to 15 dwelling units per acre. • MU -W2 — Mixed -Use Water: This zoning district applies to waterfront properties in which marine - related uses may be intermixed with general commercial, visitor -serving commercial and Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-126 (DRAFT NOVAerQro'n"JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach` 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT_ g residential dwelling units on the upper floors. This zone permits a density range of up to 15 dwelling units per acre. • MU -V — Mixed -Use Vertical: This zoning district is intended to provide for areas appropriate for the development of mixed-use structures that vertically integrate residential dwelling units above the ground floor with retail uses including office, restaurant, retail, and similar nonresidential uses located on the ground floor or above. • MU-CV/15th Street — Mixed -Use Cannery Village and 15`h Street: This zoning district applies to areas where it is the intent to establish a cohesively developed district or neighborhood containing multi -unit residential dwelling units with clusters of mixed-use and/or commercial structures on interior lots of Cannery Village and 15th Street on Balboa Peninsula. Allowed uses may include multi -unit dwelling units; nonresidential uses; and/or mixed-use structures, where the ground floor is restricted to nonresidential uses along the street frontage. Residential uses and overnight accommodations are allowed above the ground floor and to the rear of uses along the street frontage. Mixed-use or nonresidential structures are required on lots at street intersections and are allowed, but not required, on other lots. This zone permits a density range of 20.1— 26.7 dwelling units per acre. Potential constraints, to the extent they are known, such as environmentally sensitive areas and steep slopes were considered, and deductions made where those factors decreased the net buildable area of a parcel. Additionally, existing units' non -vacant parcels were analyzed to determine the number of existing units currently on the parcel. Replacement of existing units was included as a factor to prevent no net loss of existing housing stock. Kezones to Accommodate the Moderate and Above Moderate RHNA In additional to residential use on specific plans and ADUs, the City of Newport Beach has identified 212-7 sites to be rezoned from commercial use to residential use or to be rezoned to a higher residential density. The sites for rezone are further detailed in Appendix B and a rezone program is identified in Section 4: Housing Plan. Figure 3-274.9 displays the focus areas for rezone, accompanied by a corresponding table of strategy information shown below as Table 3-33-17. The specific development assumptions (both on affordability and overall development potential) that produce the Potential Units are described, area -by - area, in the Sites Inventory of Appendix B.

Responses to the letters were recorded and are included within the inventory of sites within Appendix B. Although a positive response to the redevelopment interest letters does not guaranty the redevelopment of a parcel to residential as a primary use within the planning period, it is a strong indicator of likelihood of redevelopment and is used as sufficient evidence for inclusion within the Adequate Sites Inventory. Accessory uwelling Unit Production The City of Newport Beach believes that ADUs present a viable option as part of the overall strategy to develop housing at all income levels during the 2021-2029 6th Cycle Housing Element planning period. Appendix D describes: • Recent ADU legislation and regional actions, • Local factors that may increase ADU development over the next eight years, and • Actions Newport Beach will take through housing programs to incentivizing ADU development The City assumes a total development 240 ADUs from 2021-2029. Utilizing the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) approved ADU affordability assumptions, 163 ADUs will be allocated to the low and very low-income RHNA, 72 will be allocated to the City's moderate -income RHNA and 5 will be allocated to the above moderate. This is based on the methodology described within Appendix D: Accessory Dwelling Units and incorporates guidance from HCD's Housing Element Site Inventory Guidebook.

To account for this remaining need, the City conducted a community -driven process to identify several parcels for inclusion in the Adequate Sites Inventory. This process was led by the Housing Element Update Advisory Committee (HEUAC). To guide the identification of adequate sites, the committee created focus areas Sitesareas Sites identified by the committee and the public to meet the City's very low and low-income RHNA were selected based on the AB 1397 size requirements of at least 0.5 acres but not greater than 10 acres. The 221 parcels are currently zoned as the following: • 157 parcels are zoned non-residential • 64 parcels are zoned residentially at a lower density. All parcels are non -vacant and will be rezoned to higher densities (densities are specific to each focus area) able to accommodate the development of lower-income housing.

The program is outlined in detail in Section 4: Housing Plan. Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-130 (DRAFT ^"r= IST i1ANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Regional Housing Needs Allocation Future Housing Needs Future housing need refers to the share of the regional housing need that has been allocated to the City. The State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) supplies a regional housing goal number to the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG). SCAG is then mandated to allocate the housing goal to city and county jurisdictions in the region through a RHNA Plan. In allocating the region's future housing needs to jurisdictions, SCAG is required to take the following factors into consideration pursuant to Section 65584 of the State Government Code: • Market demand for housing. • Employment opportunities. • Availability of suitable sites and public facilities. • Commuting patterns. • Type and tenure of housing. • Loss of units in assisted housing developments. • Over -concentration of lower-income households. • Geological and topographical constraints. HCD, through a determination process, allocates units to each region across California. It is then up to each region to determine a methodology and process for allocating units to each jurisdiction within that region. SCAG adopted its final Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA Plan) in February 2021. This RHNA covers an 8 -year planning period (starting in 2021) and addresses housing issues that are related to future growth in the region. The RHNA allocates to each city and county a "fair share" of the region's projected housing needs by household income group. The major goal of the RHNA is to assure a fair distribution of housing among cities and counties within the Southern California region, so that every community provides an opportunity for a mix of housing for all economic segments. Newport Beach's share of the SCAG regional growth allocation is 4,845 new units for the current planning period (2021-2029). Table 3-360, Housing Needs for 2021-2029, indicates the City's RHNA need for the stated planning period. Table 3-369: Housing Needs for 2021-2029 Income Category (% of County AMI) Number of Units Percent Extremely Low (30% or less) 728 units 15% Very Low (31 to 50%)1 728 units 15% Low (51 to 80%) 930 units 19% Moderate (81% to 120%) 1,050 units 22% Above Moderate (Over 120%) 1,409 units 29% Total 4,845 units 100% Note 1: Pursuant to AB 2634, local jurisdictions are also required to project the housing needs of extremely low- income households (0-30%AMI). In estimating the number of extremely low-income households, a jurisdiction can use 50% of the very low-income allocation or apportion the very low-income figure based on Census data. Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-131 (DRAFT AUGUST 2021JANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Adequacy of Sites For RHNA The City of Newport Beach has a total 2021-2029 RHNA allocation of 4,845 units. The City is able to take credit for 1,662 units currently within the planning process (Projects in the Pipeline), 327 units of 5th Cycle Sites being projected at existing buildout capacity, and 240 units of ADU's (addressed in Appendix B and in Appendix D). These three categories of existing capacity lower the total RHNA planning need to a "Remaining Need" of 2,707 units as shown in Table 3-37-1. The Housing Element update lists sites that would be able to accommodate an additional 7,7-84909 total units, well in excess of the remaining 2-,707 e2,707 -unit RHNA need. Newport Beach has identified sites with a capacity to accommodate 2,2-69-296 lower-income dwelling units, which is in excess of its 2,386 -unit lower-income housing need. The identified sites for lower-income dwelling units are on parcels that will permit residential development as a primary use at a base density of between 30 and 60 dwelling units per acre and at an assumed density of between 50 and 60 dwelling units per acre. The Bannine Ranch Focus area is included in the sites inventorv. but not assumed to accommodate the City's 2021-2029 RHNA growth need. Banning Ranch is considered as additional dwelling unit opportunity s in addition to those that accommodates ;gid -the RHNA. When including4h Banning Ranch 4w6de4, the Housing Element would e- " amenable the City to increase its site surplus a Fplus of 6,768 tetal units. This would result in a surplus of 691 low and very low income units tl4acompared to e a 248 unit surplus without Banning Ranch. As described in Appendix B, the City believes that due to recent State legislation and local efforts to promote accessory dwelling unit (ADU) production, the City can realistically anticipate the development of 240 ADUs within the 8 -year planning period. As outlined in the Sites Inventory within Appendix B, the City has compiled an inventory of sites for rezone that, combined, have development potential to wholly exceed and maintain the capacity to accommodate the RHNA Allocation throughout the 8 -year planning period. Overall, the City has adequate capacity to accommodate its 2021-2029 RHNA.

Along with the identifying appropriate sites to meet the current and future housing needs, the City has established a Housing Plan to support its efforts in providing housing opportunities for all income levels in Newport Beach. 2. Financia/ Resources Providing an adequate supply of decent and affordable housing requires funding from various sources, the City has access to the following finding sources. Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher The Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher program is a Federal government program to assist very low- income families, the elderly, and the disabled with rent subsidy payments in privately owned rental housing units. Section 8 participants can choose any housing that meets the requirements of the program and are not limited to units located within subsidized housing projects. They typically pay 30 to 40 percent of their income for rent and utilities. The Orange County Housing Authority administers Section 8 Housing Choice vouchers within the City of Newport Beach. As of October 30, 2020, the City has allocated 112 Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-134 (DRAFT ^"r= IST i1ANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Section 8 vouchers to residents within the community: 30 for families, 20 for persons with disabilities, and 62 for seniors. Community Development Block Grants (CDBG) The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program provides annual grants on a formula basis to cities to develop viable urban communities by providing a suitable living environment and by expanding economic opportunities, principally for low- and moderate -income persons (up to 80 percent AMI). CDBG funds can be used for a wide array of activities, including: • Housing rehabilitation. • Lead-based paint screening and abatement. • Acquisition of buildings and land. • Construction or rehabilitation of public facilities and infrastructure, and: • Public services for low-income households and those with special needs. According to the Federal regulations, the City of Newport Beach is allowed to spend no more than of 20% of CDBG funding on program administration, and 15% on community services such as senior meal delivery or homeless prevention programs. The remaining amount must be used other eligible projects that meet national objectives that principally benefit low- and moderate -income households or the disabled. HUD requires Newport Beach to complete a Five -Year Consolidated Plan (Con Plan) to receive HUD's formula grant programs. The Con Plan identifies the City's 5 -year strategies related to priority needs in housing, homelessness, community development, and economic development. It also identifies short - and long-term goals and objectives, strategies, and timetables for achieving its goals. Developed with the input of citizens and community groups, the Con Plan serves four basic functions: • It is a planning document for the community built upon public participation and input. • It is the application for funds under the CDBG Program. • It articulates local priorities. • It is a five-year strategy the City will follow in implementing HUD programs. Additionally, HUD requires the City to prepare a One -Year Action Plan for each of the five years covered by the Con Plan. The City of Newport Beach reports a total of $372,831 CDBG funds from HUD in the 2020-2021 Action Plan. In same report, the City reports an anticipated $2.07 million of CDBG resources during the five-year period from July 1, 2020, through June 30, 2025. HOME Investment Partnership Program (HOME) The HOME program provides federal funds for the development and rehabilitation of affordable rental and ownership housing for households with incomes not exceeding 80 percent of area median -income. The program gives local governments the flexibility to fund a wide range of affordable housing activities through housing partnerships with private industry and non-profit organizations. HOME funds can be used Section 3: Housing Constraints, Resources and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing 3-135 (DRAFT ^"r= IST i1ANUARY 2022) City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT for activities that promote affordable rental housing and homeownership by low-income households. The City of Newport Beach does not currently receive HOME funds. 3. Opportunities for Energy Conservation Energy Use and Providers The primary uses of energy in urban areas are for transportation lighting, water heating, and space heating and cooling. The high cost of energy demands that efforts be taken to reduce or minimize the overall level of urban energy consumption. Energy conservation is important in preserving non-renewable fuels to ensure that these resources are available for use by future generations. There are also a number of benefits associated with energy conservation including improved air quality and lower energy costs. Southern California Gas Company (SCG) provides natural gas service for the City. Natural gas is a "fossil fuel" and is a non-renewable resource. Most of the major natural gas transmission pipelines within the City are owned and operated by SCG. SCG has the capacity and resources to deliver gas except in certain situations that are noted in state law. As development occurs, SCG will continue to extend its service to accommodate development and supply the necessary gas lines. Electricity is provided on an as -needed basis to customers within existing structures in the City. Southern California Edison Company (SCE) is the distribution provider for electricity in Newport Beach. Currently, SCE has no immediate plans for expansion of infrastructure, as most of the City is built out. However, every year SCE expands and improves existing facilities according to demand -nPrnv Cnn,zPrvatin- The City's energy goals, stated in the Natural Resources Element of the General Plan, make every effort to conserve energy in the City thus reducing dependence on fossil fuels. The City's policies relating to energy include increasing energy efficiency in City facilities and operations and in private developments and reducing the City's reliance on fossil fuels. In order to reach the City's goals, objectives include the following: • Develop incentives that encourage the use of energy conservation strategies by private and public developments, • Promote energy-efficient design features, • Promote or provide incentives for "Green Building" programs that go beyond the requirements of Title 24 of the California Administrative Code and encourage energy efficient design elements as appropriate to achieve "green building" status; and, • Provide incentives for implementing Leadership in Environmental and Energy Design (LEED) certified building such as fee waivers, bonus densities, and/or awards recognition programs.18 The City of Newport Beach's Energy Action Plan (EAP) is identified as a roadmap for the City of Newport Beach to reduce GHG through reductions in energy used in facility buildings and operations. According to the City's EAP, the City's long-term vision for energy efficiency focuses on the following objectives: 18 City of Newport Beach Natural Resource Element, 2006.

The Housing Plan describes the specific goals, policies, and programs to assist City decision makers to achieve the long-term housing objectives set forth in the Newport Beach Housing Element. This Plan identifies goals, policies, and programs aimed at providing additional housing opportunities, removing governmental constraints to affordable housing, improving the condition of existing housing, and providing equal housing opportunities for all residents. These goals, policies, and programs further the City's overall housing policy goal to encourage a more diverse, sustainable, and balanced community through implementation of strategies and programs that will result in economically and socially diversified housing choices that preserve and enhance the special character of Newport Beach. The City will make every effort to budget, clan for and comply with the timelines for imalementation set forth in this Section. but may be contineent upon funding and staffing resources. The Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) has conducted a Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) to determine the City's share of the affordable housing needs for the Orange County region. The RHNA quantifies Newport Beach's local share housing needs for the region by income category. Income categories are based on the most current Median Family Income (MFI) for Orange County. The current 2021 MFI (for an assumed family of 4 persons) for Orange County is $106,700. The MFI may change periodically, as it is updated on an annual basis. The City's 2021-2029 RHNA growth need of 4,845 housing units is allocated into the following income categories: • 1,456 units -Very low-income (0-50% County MFI) • 930 units - Low-income (51-80% of County MFI) • 1,050 units - Moderate -income (81-120% of County MFI) • 1,409 units - Above moderate -income (120% or more of County MFI) Housing Goals The City of Newport Beach has identified the following housing goals as part of this Housing Element Update: Housing Goal #1: Provision of adequate sites to accommodate projected housing unit growth needs identified by the 2021-2029 RHNA. Housing Goal #2: Quality residential development and the preservation, conservation, and appropriate redevelopment of housing stock. Housing Goal #3: A variety of housing types, designs, and opportunities for all social and economic segments. Housing Goal #4: Housing opportunities for as many renter- and owner -occupied households as possible in response to the market demand and RHNA obligations for housing in the City. Section 4: Housing Plan (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) 4-1 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Housing Goal #5: Preservation of the City's housing stock for extremely low-, very low-, low-, and moderate -income households. Housing Goal #6: Housing opportunities for special needs populations. Housing Goal #7: Equal housing opportunities in the City for all people. Housing Goal #8: Effective and responsive housing programs and policies The goals listed above are described below and on the following pages with accompanying policies and programs to achieve them. Housing Policies and Program Actions This Housing Element expresses the Newport Beach community's overall housing goals and supporting policies and program actions to achieve them. The stated Housing Program Actions are based on a review of past performance of the 5th Cycle Housing Element, analysis of current constraints and resources, and input from Newport Beach residents and stakeholders. Housing Goal #1 Provision of adequate sites to accommodate projected housing unit growth needs. Housing Policy 1.1: identify a variety of sites to accommodate housing growth need by income categories to serve the needs of the entire community. Implementation Actions Adequate Sites to Accommodate 2021-2029 RHNA The City of Newport Beach has a total Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) allocation of 4,845 units. State law requires the City of Newport Beach to identify adequate sites to accommodate its fair share allocation for the 6th Cycle Housing Element. This City has identified a variety of candidate sites through extensive analysis in collaboration with the community and stakeholder through Newport Together's "Listen and Learn" process, multiple meetings of the City's Housing Element Update Advisory Committee (Committee), participation by interested residents at a variety of public meetings, workshops, and consultation with property owners. The City of Newport Beach has identified an adequate amount of land that was determined by the Committee as "Feasible" or "Potentially Feasible" for future development. Only a portion of these candidate sites will be necessary to accommodate the City's RHNA planning obligation. These sites have undergone a rigorous process to evaluate site features, development potential, developer/owner interest and other factors to deem them appropriate for housing during the 2021-2029 Planning Period. As part of the analysis of adequate sites, the City has comprehensively reviewed opportunity sites citywide and have identify eight primary areas of opportunity: • Airport Area Environs • Dover/Westcliff • West Newport Mesa • Newport Center Section 4: Housing Plan (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) 4-2 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT�$'i • Banning Ranch • 5th t4 -Cycle Housing Element Sites • Coyote Canyon • Accessory Dwelling Units Since the City has identified several opportunity sites in the 5th Cycle that will be utilized in the 6th Cycle Housing Element, additional policy considerations are stated in this Policy Program. These opportunities sites are described in map and tabular format in Appendix B of this Housing Element. Each of the opportunity areas described in this Housing Element have been assigned a targeted acreage, and a targeted number of new housing units (see following implementing Policy Action statements). Collectively, these targets must meet the unmet RHNA need as required by State law. It is expected there may be deviations from the targets with future implementing zoning actions. New opportunity sites may be identified, and other sites may be deemed unsuitable or densities may be modified, all based on new information received over time. The City may adopt future zoning strategies that are more or less than the identified targets in this Housing Element provided the total unmet RHNA need by income category is accommodated within state -defined deadlines. If future zoning strategies deviate from the targets expressed in this Housing Element but still meet the requirement to identify adequate sites to accommodate unmet RHNA need, no amendment to the Housing Element would be required and deviations of any magnitude may be considered subject to the City Council's review and approval in consultation with the Community. All sites proposed for rezoning through implementation of Policy Actions 1A through IF provided in Section 4 of this Housing Element will require a companion Land Use Element amendment that will be subject to a vote of the electorate pursuant to Charter Section 423. The City will initiate an election and conduct community outreach to educate the public on the benefits of higher density housing and pay for all costs associated with the ballot measure(s). The table below presents a timeline for the process including the vote. If the vote fails, the City will propose alternative Policy Actions and call for a second election. If the second vote fails to pass, the City Council will seek a legal opinion from the State Attorney General's Office as to how to proceed. Milestones for Housing Element Adootion.

Section 3 of this Housing Element contains an analysis of fair housing activities in Newport Beach and the Orange County region. The analysis found that: • The City does not have any racial or ethnic groups that score higher than 60 on the dissimilarity index, indicating that while the City of Newport Beach has no racial or ethnic populations with a dissimilaritv index above 60. all populations (with the exception of the Hispanic/Latino population) have a score above 30, meaning all groups experience moderate segregation from the White population. • The City does not have any racially or ethnically concentrated census tracts (R/ECAPs) as identified by HUD. This indicates that there are no census tracts within Newport Beach with a non-white population of 50 percent or more or any census tracts that have a poverty rate that exceeds 40 percent or is three or more times the average tract poverty rate for the metropolitan/ micropolitan area. However, one R/ECAP was identified in the neighboring City of Irvine, near the University of California Irvine. This will be considered in the housing plan as students within the R/ECAP may look for housing in Newport Beach. Section 4: Housing Plan (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) 4-18 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT • The UC Davis Regional Opportunity Index shows that most residents within Newport Beach have a high level of access to opportunity throughout the majority of the City, with only two census tracts showing low access to opportunity. • The analysis of the TCAC/HCD opportunity Area Maps shows that most census tracts in Newport Beach are classified with the "Moderate Resource" "High Resource" or "Highest Resource" designation. This indicates that these census tracts are within the top 40 percent in the region in terms of areas that lower-income residents may thrive if given the opportunity to live there. All but two census tracts within Newport Beach register within the top 20 percent in the index. One census tract registered as a "Low Resource" area, citing high economic opportunity and low educational opportunity. • The Opportunity Indices identify overall high access to quality resources including economic and job proximity, educational access, and transportation access. However, there is a low health index, indicating increased pollution and low environmental quality across all racial/ethnic groups in the City. The opportunity indices identify low affordable transportation options to both the Asian or Pacific Islander (Non -Hispanic) and Native American (Non -Hispanic). Additionally the index identified that households who earn below the poverty rate in Newport Beach have lower levels of opportunity access across all indicators as well as race and ethnicities. • Racially Concentrated Areas of Affluence (RCAA) are characterized by census tract areas in which 80 percent or more of the population is White and that have a median income of at least $125,000. There are 12 census tracts within the City that are identified as RCAAs. • Newport Beach and the State have the same rate of home ownership, but residents of Newport Beach experience higher rates of cost burden. Housing adequacy and affordability are similar in both the City and State, where California has a slightly higher rate of affordability. • Newport Beach scored a 3.9 AIITransit performance score, illustrating a low combination of trips per week and number of lobs accessible that enable a moderate number of people to take transit to work. In total, 138,164 lobs are accessible within a 30 -minute trip from Newport Beach, however just 0.55 percent of commuters use transit. By comparison, Newport Beach scored lower than neighboring jurisdictions of Costa Mesa (5.4), Huntington Beach (4.4), and Irvine (3.6), however slightly higher than Laguna Beach (3.8).

It is recognized that allowing a smaller scale development within an established commercial and industrial area may result in land use compatibility problems and result in a residential development that does not provide sufficient amenities (i.e., parks) and/or necessary improvements (i.e., pedestrian walkways). Therefore, it is imperative that the exception includes provisions for adequate amenities, design considerations for the future integration into a larger residential village, and a requirement to ensure collaboration with future developers in the area. The City of Newport Beach will maintain the exception and continue to implement this program as projects are submitted to the City in the 6`" Cycle.

The City of Newport will respond to market conditions and will revise or add additional sites where appropriate or add additional incentives, if identified strategies are not successful in generating development interest. The City will include the report in its annual General Plan Status Report including Housing Element Report to OPR and HCD by April 1st each year. Timeframe: Ongoing, Annual Responsible Agency: City of Newport Beach Community Development Funding Sources: General Fund Policy Action 4H: Review Mixed -Use Zones As part of the 2006 Comprehensive General Plan Update and 2010 Zoning Code Update, new mixed-use housing opportunity zones were created throughout the City as a strategy to enhance and revitalize underperforming and underutilized properties. These areas included the Airport Area, Dover/Westcliff, Newport Center, Mariners Mile, and portions of the Balboa Peninsula. The Airport Area and Newport Center have proven the most successful with several approved and constructed mixed-use developments, such as Uptown Newport and Villas Fashion Island. The Balboa Peninsula has had some limited success while Dover/Westcliff and Mariners' Mile have not proven successful to -date. Despite the housing opportunity that was created in these areas, a majority of these sites remain underutilized with a single, non-residential use, such as retail or office. It is evident the City's existing development standards (e.g., setbacks, height, density, parking, dedications, etc.) related to mixed-use development may create constraints to the redevelopment of these properties. Therefore, to ensure that mixed-use opportunities are maximized, the City will review established mixed- use land use categories and corresponding zoning regulations in the City and recommend policy or code changes to the City Council that reduce regulatory barriers and incentivize mixed-use residential development. Timeframe: Complete the review and provide recommendations to the City Council within 12 months of Housing Element Adoption, and then complete a review annually thereafter. Responsible Agency: City of Newport Beach Community Development Funding Source: General Fund Policy Action 41: Establish Mixed -Use Resort Opportunities Mixed-use resorts are an established trend in the hospitality industry that incorporate hotel -branded residential units as an accessory use located within a resort hotel complex where residents enjoy access to the full range of services, facilities, and amenities provided by the hotel operator or brand. The residential use cannot exist without the hotel's services, facilities, and amenities. Section 4: Housing Plan (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) 4-23 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT The hotel industry has been one of the hardest hit industries due to the COVID-19 pandemic and a full recovery of the industry is not anticipated for many years. Mixed-use resorts provide an opportunity to revitalize older or underperforming hotels and maintain their competitive standing by creating multiple revenue streams. Economies of scale created by shared facilities, amenities, and services add additional benefit to mixed- use resort developments. This cross pollination of business benefits both the hotel and the resident. It may also increase occupancy rates at the resort by creating increased synergy between uses and social gathering opportunities, boosting transient occupancy taxes while providing in -fill housing opportunities to partially assist the City in meeting its RHNA obligation in highly desirable and built -out areas. Incorporating residences also helps to off -set cyclical variations in hotel occupancy rates that can, for instance, result in seasonal decreases in revenue for the hotel's food and beverage offerings. Therefore, to further encourage and incentivize the development of mixed-use hotels, the City will consider policies, regulations and/or interpretations to: 1) clarify ambiguities in General Plan, Zoning Code, and/or Local Coastal Plan Program provisions to allow hotels and motels, located outside of the Coastal Commission Appeal Areas, to convert up to thirty percent (30%) of their permitted hotel and motel rooms into residential units on a one-for-one basis; 2) establish parking programs (e.g., shared parking) and/or reduced residential parking requirements that mitigate the need for any additional parking due to the conversion to residential use; 3) require a fiscal impact analysis to disclose and mitigate any reduction in transient occupancy tax due to a potential conversion; 4) increase the flexibility in use of transfer of development rights to allow for transfer of unbuilt residential units to hotel sites; 5) require property owners converting permitted hotel and motel rooms into residential units to mitigate impacts to on affordable housing production by either constructing affordable housing units within the development or through a contribution of in -lieu fees; 6) require mitigation of impacts to public access for potential conversions located within the Coastal Zone; and 7) require property owners converting permitted hotel and motel rooms into residential units to enter into a development agreement to ensure implementation of this policy at the project level. Timeframe: Establish policies, regulations and/or interpretations within 24 months of Housing Element Adoption.

JF j ,jo T i of • City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT The Housing Element is required to identify potential candidate housing sites by income category to meet the City's RHNA Allocation. The sites identified within the Housing Element represent the City's ability to plan for housing at the designated income levels within the 6th housing cycle planning period (2021-2029). These sites are either residentially zoned or within a specific plan area or urban plan that permits residential uses at a minimum of 30 dwelling units per acre (du/ac). As described in this appendix, the development capacity for each site depends largely on its location within a "Focus Area." It should be noted that the sites evaluated here explicitly identify sites that have a favorable chance of redevelopment in the planning period. The actual number of sites subject to future rezone and the actual unit yield, by income category, on each site may vary. The intent of the identification of sites in this Appendix shall provide justification of the availability of sites to accommodate the 2021-2029 RHNA need at all times during the planning period. As part of the site selection process, letters of interest were sent out to all property owners within each Focus Area. Property owners were consulted to help the City better understand potential future housing growth on candidate housing sites within the City. Additionally, some property owners contacted the City requesting to be added and other requested their removal from consideration. Those requests were granted by the City and are reflected in the site analysis contained herein. This appendix contains Tables B-11, B-13, B-16, B-19, B-21, and B-22-38 which identify each candidate housing site within Newport Beach's sites inventory. The sites are identified by assessor parcel number (APN) as well as a unique identifier used to track sites within the inventory. Additionally, the following information is provided for each parcel. • Address • Ownership • Zoning (including Specific Plan areas and Overlays, if applicable) • Size (Net developable acres removing known development constraints) • Density • Vacancy status • Previous Housing Element identification • Potential Development Capacity (Dwelling Units) by income category • Description of existing use A summary of this information is included within the Housing Resources section (Section 3) of the City's 2021-2029 Housing Element. Appendix B: Sites Analysis (DRAFT nFrrnnFo = I JANUARY 2022) B-1 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT . Candidate Sites Analysis and Identification Process The City of Newport Beach conducted a community driven Candidate Sites Analysis process beginning in 2019 with Newport, Together and concluding in 2021 with the work of the Housing Element Update Advisory Committee. Newport, Together Sites Identification by Newport Beach Residents and Stakeholders Newport, Together is a community-based effort that included a Listen and Learn process to guide and inform a future General Plan Update. As a component of the General Plan Update, the Steering Committee identified the need to share information on the state -mandated Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) housing allocation for Newport Beach. A key activity during outreach meetings for Phase I included a presentation on RHNA and an activity designed to allow participants to create a heat map identifying potential locations to zone for state -mandated housing allocations. Completed in the Fall of 2019, the Listen & Learn process included digital engagement, a launch event, and a workshop series in each of the seven council districts. The heat map of potential rezoning locations developed by the community, shown below, was the starting point for the work of the Housing Element Update Advisory Committee (HEAUC). Figure B-1: Heat Map of Potential Rezoning Locations Appendix B: Sites Analysis (DRAFT PVCPA RVR =I JANUARY 2022) B-2 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Housing Element Update Advisory Committee and Identification of Candidate Sites Building upon the efforts of Newport, Together, the Candidate Sites Analysis process in Newport Beach was continued by the Housing Element Update Advisory Committee (HEUAC). The creation of the HEUAC was also the beginning of the formal Housing Element Update development process. The HEUAC is comprised of a variety of professionals with relevant experience in affordable housing development and financing, housing policy, local development, environmental matters, and community engagement. The primary role of the HEUAC was to provide analysis and feedback on the selection of sites to be included in the Adequate Sites Inventory. The Purpose & Responsibilities of the committee are as follows: • Ensure there is sufficient public outreach and stakeholder input regarding the update to the Housing and Land Use Elements of the City of Newport Beach General Plan and any other Elements deemed necessary; • Review responses to the Request for Proposal for services to update the Housing, Land Use, and other Elements deemed necessary; • Make recommendations to the City Council regarding the selection of consultants to assist in the update of the Housing, Land Use, and other Elements deemed necessary; • Provide guidance to City staff and the consultant through the outreach process; • Provide guidance to City staff, and the consultant, on goals and policies related to the update of the Housing, Land Use, and any other Elements deemed necessary by the Committee or City Council; and • Make other recommendations to the City Council regarding the update of the General Plan, as necessary. Composition of the Housing Element Update Advisory Committee (HEUAC) The HEUAC was appointed by the Newport Beach City Council for their demonstrated knowledge and expertise of housing, funding/financing, due diligence, site design among other factors. The HEUAC included the following members; • Larry Tucker, Chair — Real estate development, financing and law • Jeff Bloom — Real estate financing, specializing in affordable housing financing • Susan DeSantis — Planner and a former director of HCD • Paul Fruchbom —Affordable housing developer • Beth Kiley — Real estate appraiser • Geoffrey LePlastrier — Licensed Architect • Stephen Sandland — Licensed Architect • Debbie Stevens — Planner and CEQA practitioner • Michelle Thrakulchavee — Real estate development and financing Each of these experts provided professional insight for the identification and feasibility of sites to be included in the City 2021-2029 Housing Element. A summary of all meetings, efforts and conclusions of the HEUAC are provided in Appendix C of this Housing Element. Appendix B: Sites Analysis (DRAFT nFrrnnVo = I JANUARY 2022) B-3 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Based on the heat map developed by the community during the Listen & Learn, The HEAUAC further identified "Focus Areas" for housing development, which are detailed in this document. Within each Focus Area, Ssubcommittees of the Committee assigned all nonvacant parcels a feasibility rating ("Infeasible", "Potentially Feasible", or "Feasible") — analyzing the parcel's propensity to redevelop during the planning period. For each of the Focus Areas, the HEAUC assigned area -specific Subcommittees to analyze all opportunity sites within the area for feasibility. Feasibility was assessed as follows: • Feasible sites are those that appear that they could feasibly be redeveloped for housing or have housing added to the Parcel while the current use remains in whole or in part. • Potentially Feasible sites are those that may work as housing, but due to the size and/or configuration of a Parcel, or the quality and functionality of existing improvements, a Parcel might be somewhat less likely to be a candidate for a housing use. Potentially Feasible sites may also include Parcels that would be infeasible standing alone, but if combined with adjacent the Parcel(s) could become part of a potential housing site. • Infeasible sites are those that the Subcommittee determined would not work as housing due to existing improvements on the site, insufficient size, and or inefficiencies due to the configuration of the Parcel. Each site was also evaluated by the Subcommittees considering factors such as: • Access to schools and jobs • Access to parks, services, health care facilities and grocery stores • Proximity to infrastructure and utilities • Likelihood or redevelopment and reuse • Project feasibility based on existing site conditions and development features • Funding/Financing and feasibility considerations HEUAC Identification of Sites to be Included in the Sites Inventory Each Subcommittee developed detailed technical memorandums that were presented at public meetings summarizing the detailed, parcel -by -parcel analysis completed to assess feasibility within each Focus Area. Once these sites were identified, Tthe City then sent out individual letters to each property owner whose property was deemed "Feasible" or "Potentially Feasible" for residential development by the HEUAC. Responses to these letters are captured as evidence to reinforce likelihood for redevelopment within Tables B-11, B-13, B-16, B-19, B-21, and B-23. Based on these responses, the City removed a44Feasible or Potentially Feasible sites where the property owner was not ,greeableexpressly unwilling to providing housing opportunities on their site. Final Determination of Sites Inventory Final determination of housing sites was established utilizing the following criteria: • Identification of sites w/ a Realistic Potential to Redevelop During the Planning Period — tThe HEUAC identified only sites that adhered to the criteria established at the beginning of the Appendix B: Sites Analysis (DRAFT ^-CFM-RER 2021 -JANUARY 2022) B-4 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT planning process. Supported by demonstrated features of recent development activity in the area and utilization of site selection criteria that provide sound analysis of site feasibility, the HEAUC identified only sites which can be realistically assumed to have the highest level of redevelopment potential during the 2021-2029 Planning Period. Provision of a Significant Buffer of Sites to Accommodate Sites that may not Redevelop to Full Potential During the Planning Period —tThe HEUAC concluded that it is infeasible to assume 100% of the sites identified in the inventory would see redevelopment in the planning period. Therefore, a large buffer of additional sites weFewas identified to ensure a larger inventory of opportunity, inclusion of a greater number of property owners and establishment of identical regulatory and land use standards on these parcels to encourage and incentivize redevelopment. As summarized in Table B-1, the sites buffer provides to adherence to no net loss considerations and significantly expands opportunity for housing within each focus area. Identification of Sites That Would be Physically Able to Accommodate Housing In Place of or in Addition to Existing Uses — The HEUAC only identified sites that would physically be able to accommodate housing. Therefore, all sites identified have been evaluated for their ability to actually accommodate housing units based on site features, existing development and other site constraints. Ensure the Public, Property Owners and Stakeholder Engaged in the Sites Identification Process — The HEUAC collaborated with these groups throughout the planning process to ensure local concerns were addressed, sensitive sites were properly evaluated and preliminary sites were made available to the public for review and discussion. Ensure Site Inventory Feasibility is Based Supported by Local Examples that Demonstrate Sites can be Developed at Proposed Densities and Affordability—The HEUAC based project feasibility assumptions mon actual projects constructed, under construction or in the entitlement process. It was important for the HEUAC to compare actual development opportunities within the Focus Area to provide a realistic assessment of the opportunities and constraints of developing and proposed densities and affordability levels. The HEUAC concluded that all sites in the inventory possess the ability to accommodate residential development. The local project examples are provided in the discussion for each Focus Area in this Appendix. All nonresidential sites that were deemed Feasible or Potentially Feasible were included in the Sites Inventory, except those sites whose owners expressly requested that their properties not be considered opportunity sites. Therefore, the City does not foresee the opportunity to potentially add additional sites to the Sites Inventory since all Feasible or Potentially Feasible sites have already been included. As shown within the following images, the Focus Areas and Candidate Sites identified by the HEAUC align closely with recommended sites within the SCAG HELPR Tool. This is primarily due to consistency in methodology between the HEUAC, comprised of local experts in relevant fields, and SCAG HELPR, a data - driven tool developed externally.

G O �i� I cove The Housing Element is required to identify sites by income category to meet the City's RHNA Allocation. The sites identified within the Housing Element represent the City's ability to develop housing at the designated income levels within the planning period (2021-2029). These sites are (i) residentially zoned but for which no project has been proposed, (ii) have been entitled for a residential development project (but will not yet have received building permits and a certificate of occupancy by June 30, 2021) or (iii) Appendix B: Sites Analysis (DRAFT -DECEMBER. =I JANUARY 2022) B-6 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT have been identified for (a) a rezone to a residential use from a non-residential use, or (b) for an overlay to enable a housing use in addition to or in the place of a non-residential use. A summary of this information is included within the Housing Resources section (Section 3) of the City's 2021-2029 Housing Element. Table B-1 shows the City's 2021-2029 RHNA need by income category as well as a summary of the sites identified to meet that need. The analysis shows that the City of Newport Beach has the capacity to meet its 2021-2029 RHNA allocation through a variety of methods, including: • Identification of additional increased capacity on existing, residentially zoned sites • Identification of residential property for rezone to higher -density residential primary use • Identification of non-residential property for rezone to residential primary use • Development of approved projects which do not have certificates of occupancy • Future development of accessory dwelling units (ADUs) Water, Sewer, And Dry Utility Availability Each site has been evaluated to ensure there is adequate access to water and sewer connections as well as dry utilities. Each site is situated with a direct connection to a public street that has the appropriate water and sewer mains and other infrastructure to service the candidate site. The City's Sewer System Management Plan provides for the identification of sewer system distribution throughout the community. All sites identified in the sites inventory have existing sewer system capacity and a sewer system capacity assurance plan is provide as part of the Management Plan to ensure the availability of future capacity citywide. Threshold criteria have been adopted to trigger any capacity enhancements necessary based upon changes to land use and other considerations. The City's Jurisdictional Runoff Management Plan addresses stormwater management throughout the City as it provides for the identification and management of facilities to manage stormwater throughout the community. According to the City's Runoff Management Plan, facilities and mitigations for potential peak stormwater flows are not deemed a constraint to future residential development. The Newport Beach Utilities Department, the Municipal Water District of Orange County, and the Irvine Ranch Water District provide water service and management of the City's potable water system. As a built -out community, the City's existing water system services all areas within the City limits through various trunk lines and mains. Fire flow considerations are the primary factor in determining the adequacy of service for future residential development. The City conducts regular monitoring of the water system in the community and provides for system upgrades via capital improvement program to ensure continued adequate water availability and service to existing and future planned residential development. Southern California Gas Company provides natural gas services to the City of Newport Beach. SoCal Gas is a gas -only utility and, in addition to serving the residential, commercial, and industrial markets, provides gas for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and EG customers in Southern California. Southern California Edison (SCE) is the electrical service provider for Newport Beach. SCE is regulated by the California Public Utilities Appendix B: Sites Analysis (DRAFT PECEMnEo MI JANUARY 2022) B-7 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT �5r Commission (CPUC) and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and includes 50,000 square miles of SCE service area across Central, Coastal, and Southern California. SCE will continue to provide adequate services to Newport Beach including increased household growth as projected by the City's RHNA allocation. In accordance with the California Public Utilities Commission all electric and gas service will be provided for future development in Newport Beach as requested. SoCal Gas and Southern California Edison regularly partner with the City to provide services and obtain authorization to construct any required facilities. The City has a mature energy distribution system that will be able to add additional service connections for future residential land uses. Z. Adequacy of Sites to Accommodate RHNA The City of Newport Beach has a total 2021-2029 RHNA allocation of 4,845 units. The City is able to take credit for 1,662 units currently within the planning process (Projects in the Pipeline), 327 units of 5t" Cycle Sites being projected at existing buildout capacity, and 240 units of ADU's (strategy described later in this section and in Appendix D). These three categories of existing capacity lower the total RHNA planning need to a "Remaining Need" of 2,616 units as shown in Table B-1. The Housing Element update lists sites that would be able to accommodate an additional 7,909884 units, well in excess of the 2,616 -unit RHNA need. In addition to the units provided to meet their RHNA, the City also plans to include potential units provided by the Banning Ranch Focus Area as extra buffer to ensure that the City would meet all of its housing needs. The inclusion of Banning Ranch would accommodate an additional 1,475 excess units, bringing the total potential units from rezone strategies to 9,38488 units. Newport Beach has identified sites with a capacity to accommodate 2,634 lower income dwelling units, which is in excess of its 2,386 -unit lower income housing need. The identified sites for lower income dwelling units are on parcels that will permit residential development as a primary use at a base density of between 30 and 60 dwelling units per acre and at an assumed density of between 50 and 60 dwelling units per acre. As described later in this section, the City believes that due to recent State legislation and local efforts to promote accessory dwelling unit (ADU) production, the City can realistically anticipate the development of 240 ADUs within the 8 -year planning period. As outlined in the Sites Inventory later in this document, the City has compiled an inventory of sites for rezone that, combined, have development potential to wholly exceed and maintain the capacity to accommodate the RHNA Allocation throughout the 8 -year planning period. Overall, the City has adequate capacity to accommodate its 2021-2029 RHNA.

Appendix B: Sites Analysis (DRAFT PFCF ^SCD '^ I JANUARY 2022) B-13 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) In areas such as Newport Beach where land values are high and there is a large amount of single-family detached housing, ADUs present a potentially more naturally affordable housing option for renters. ADUs are often smaller in size than typical apartments or rental housing, ranging from 300 to 600 square feet in size. They are also attractive to property owners who are able to gain rental income. Based on the unique land values and policy planning in the City of Newport Beach, the City identified a total of 240 units of ADU development assumed to be developed for the 8 years The City of Newport Beach believes that ADUs present a viable option as part of the overall strategy to develop housing at all income levels during the 2021-2029 6th Cycle Housing Element planning period. Appendix D describes: • Recent ADU legislation and regional actions, • Local factors that may increase ADU development over the next eight years, and • Actions Newport Beach will take through housing programs to incentivizing ADU development As part of the sites analysis found within this Appendix, the City has accounted for future ADU and JADU production using the methodology and rationale described in Appendix D of this Housing Element. SCAG conducted a regional analysis of current market rents that can be used to assign ADUs to income categories in Sixth Cycle Housing Elements, the analysis surveyed, market rents of 158 existing ADUs. The analysis then determined the proportion of ADUs within each income category for both one-person and two -person households and made assumptions for what percentage of ADUs are rented for free based on existing literature and allocate those towards Extremely Low Income. Finally, the analysis combined rented and non -rented ADUs into single affordability breakdown by county. Newport Beach utilized SCAGs affordability assumptions for ADUs in Orange County. This equates to an anticipated ADU development of 240 ADUs over the next 8 years, 163 of which are anticipated to be affordable. The ADUs not designated to meet the City's lower income RHNA need are anticipated to be 72 affordable at moderate income levels and 5 affordable at the above moderate -income level. Detailed analysis of City policies and monitoring requirements supporting this projection can be found within Appendix D: Accessory Dwelling Units. Remaining Need Table B-3 below displays the City's total RHNA allocation for the years 2021-2029 as well as the City's net RHNA allocation after the inclusion of Projects in the Pipeline and ADUs.

Based on a public process, sites were selected based on their realistic viability to accommodate lower-income housing within the 2021-2029 planning period. Sites were also evaluated based on access to resources, proximity to additional residential development, transportation and major streetway access, and resources and opportunity indicators. Section 3: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing, outlines all fair housing, opportunity indicators, and environmental resources in Newport Beach. The City has identified sites with capacity to accommodate the City's 2021-2029 RHNA. This capacity is based on a rezone strategy for several Focus Areas throughout the City. These Focus Areas are as follows: • Airport Area Environs • West Newport Mesa Area • Dover -Westcliff Area • Newport Center Area • Coyote Canyon Area • Banning Ranch Areal The City has analyzed potential capacity based on rezone strategies specific to each area. Each of the following sections describes the identified areas and contains a table of redevelopment assumptions and projected unit capacities. Additionally, each Focus Area is followed by a map detailing the adequate sites inventory, organized by area. Through a public process, the City has assessed the feasibility of parcels in the Focus Areas to redevelop residentially during the planning period. Those parcels deemed Feasible were then analyzed to ensure compliance with HCD's criteria for sites designated to accommodate lower income development (including sizing criteria). The inventory of feasible acreage for redevelopment within each Focus Area was developed with this process. Table B-4 below summarizes the key statistics for the rezone strategies for all Focus Areas. The specific development assumptions (both on affordability and overall development potential) that produce the Potential Units are described, area -by -area, in the Sites Inventory of this document. 1 Units from the Banning Ranch Focus Area are applied after the RHNA is met.

Additional details, including project status, evidence of affordability, evidence of nonvacant residential development, and evidence of lot consolidation are shown in Table 13-2: Projects in the Pipeline and Attachment B-3. The Section 4: Housing Plan outlines actions the City will take to promote the development of affordable units within the Focus Areas. Small Sites Notablv. 20 sites within the sites inventory do not meet the recommended sizine criteria of a minimum of 0.5 acres and are proposed to provide low and very low income housing. Although all 20 small sites are non -vacant, all small site referenced in this section have had specific written development interest. Of the 20 small sites included in the Inventory, one is part of an existing pipeline project. The rest of the small sites are included in the inventory because each site's owner has expressed written interest in housing development on that site during the Dlannine period.

Furthermore, the City has recently been in the process of approving aroiects that would consolidate sites below the 0.5 acre HCD sizine criteria. For examale. a recently approved prosect proposed to consolidate five individual lots ranging in size from 0.05 to 0.49 acres into a larger parcel that would accommodate 36 units at a density of 26 du/acre in addition to a 5,096 s.f. office space (see Attachment B-3, West Coast Highway Mixed -Use Prosect). Another recently approved prosect proposed the consolidation of three parcels, two of which were below HCD's sizing criteria. The proposed project would provide up 350 residential units as well as commercial and open space components (see Attachment B-3, Newport Crossings Project). Given the interest expressed in the small sites above, the City will likely continue approving lot consolidation projects in the future. Calculation of Unit Capacity Taking into account development standards, unit capacity for sites identified to accommodate low and very low units was calculated by multiplying the net acreage of the site by the assumed density established for each focus area. To support this assumption, the City has identified programs and policies to encourage developer interest and financial feasibility. These programs and policies are detailed in Section 4: Housing Plan. Additionally, based on previous development trends, the City assigned each Focus Area a percentage of its land area which the City projects to redevelop — meaning the percentage of land area within each Focus Area, which is expected to "turn over", or develop with residential units during the planning period. City Commitments to Higher Density Housing Although high density housing has not been achieved in some zones of the City, projects in areas such as the Airport Area prove that when zoning allows, high density housing is developed. The City has successfully implemented projects with high densities such as Phase 1A One Uptown Newport Apartments, which has a density of 56 du/acre. This project was developed in the Airport Area and construction was completed in 2017. The project provides approximately 492 total dwelling units with 91 being Low and Very Low -Income dwelling units. The Project has two more phases of construction that would result in high density housing as well. Evidence Supporting Development of Opportunity Sites at Higher Densities Pursuant to Government Code Section 65583.2, a minimum density of 30 du/ac shall be deemed appropriate to accommodate housing for lower-income households for urbanized areas. Within the current General Plan, the Airport Area is the only area in City that allows higher density residential housing with a maximum allowed density of 50 dwelling units per acre. This higher density residential opportunity was created as part of the 2006 Comprehensive General Plan Update. The General Plan identified this area as one of the greatest opportunities in the community to create new residential neighborhoods including workforce housing, through the replacement of existing uses and new construction on underutilized surface parking lots. Most of the properties in the area are currently designated by the General Plan as Mixed -Use Horizontal (MU -H2), which provides for the horizontal intermixing of uses, including the development of free-standing multi -family residential units. Residential units in the MU -H2 designation must developed at a maximum density of 50 units per acre (excluding Appendix B: Sites Analysis (DRAFT DRCFM-RER 2021 -JANUARY 2022) B-19 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT density bonus) and minimum density of 30 units per acre. Additionally, General Plan Policy 6.15.5 states that of the 2,200 units permitted within the Airport Area, only 550 units may be developed as infill on surface lots or areas not occupied by buildings. The remaining 1,650 units are permitted as the replacement of existing nonresidential uses or industrial uses. When a development phase includes a mix of residential and nonresidential uses or replaces existing industrial uses, the number of peak hour trips generated by the cumulative development of the site shall not exceed the number of trips that would have resulted from the development of the underlying permitted nonresidential uses. Based on recent trends in residential development projects, and discussions with property owners, developers, and real estate professionals, it has become evident that the single most important land use change leading the new residential redevelopment has been the 30- 50 dwelling unit per acre allowances that were created in 2006. As illustrated in Table B-2: Projects in the Pipeline, the City has approved several new residential projects in the Airport Area, all designed at or exceeding the maximum densities allowed of 50 dwellings per acre. In cases were the base densities were proposed below 50 dwellings per unit, the density was maximized based on the replacement trips the underlying commercial uses allowed for. But in all cases, a density bonus was utilized to exceed the maximum 50 dwelling unit per acre limit and increase the development yield. The City believes these projects are evidence that increasing densities to 50 dwelling per acre provide the necessary incentive to redevelop the existing nonvacant sites. Although the 2006 Comprehensive General Plan also created new mixed-use housing opportunities in other parts of the City such as Mariners Mile and Westcliff Dover, the allowable densities are limited to 26.7 dwelling to the acre. Based on discussion with prospective developers and existing property owners who have contemplated residential development in these other opportunity areas, the allowable density of 26.7 dwelling per acre is not sufficient to create an adequate return on investment. Additionally, several of the mixed-use zoning opportunities in the City require a minimum ratio of commercial floor area to be provided in order to development a residential component. This minimum commercial component adds significant cost to a project due the intensive parking needs commercial uses generate, the need to incorporate expensive parking structures to accommodate the parking demand, and increased construction costs due to the increased size of a compliant project. In West Newport Mesa, -additional multi -family residential opportunities were created; however, densities are limited to an average of 18 dwellings per acre. Based on discussion with prospective developers and existing property owners, the low-density limits were cited as constraints to redevelopment. Given the success with housing opportunities that were created with densities of 50 dwelling per acre, the CityLs believes committing to rezoning the other focus Areas to allow higher density residential with similar 50 dwelling per acre allowance. The City has committed to rezoning of sites to accommodate these higher densities in Policy Actions 1A through 1F. These rezone programs will include the requisite zoning standards that support the development of housing at these densities. Additionally, Policy 3A addresses the development of objective design standards appropriate for higher density product, Policy 4C and 4D addresses incentives Appendix B: Sites Analysis (DRAFT PVCPA RVR '^ (JANUARY 2022) B-20 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT for affordable housing and Policy 4H addresses furthering opportunities for residential in mixed use zones. Given the success of housing opportunities created with densities of 50 dwelling units per acre, the City believes that it can successfully rezone other Focus Areas to allow for similar housing densities. Notably, each focus area has a redevelopment Dercentaee applied to it. meanine a reduction in anticiDated potential capacity based on the understanding that not every candidate site in the inventory will develop as housing during the planning period. These redevelopment percentage assumptions mean that the City has identified sites with the Dotential to accommodate far more than the anticiaated "Total Net Units" shown below. Rezoning these Focus Areas would result in an increase of high-density housing in six different zones of the City and would increase the stock of affordable housing throughout the City of Newport Beach. Below is Table B-66: Focus Area Strategies that describes the characteristics of and contribution to the housing stock of each Focus Area.

A full list of these sites is presented Tables B-1 , 13-1 , B-1 , B-2043, 13-2 , and B-243. Projects in the Pipeline The City has identified a number of projects currently in the entitlements process which are likely to be developed and/or first occupied during the planning period and count as credit towards the 2021-2029 RHNA allocation. Notably, Projects in the Pipeline can completely accommodate the City's Above Moderate RHNA allocation. Table B- below summarizes the potential units from Projects in the Pipeline: Table B- : Moderate and Above Moderate -Income Projects in the Pipeline Moderate Income Above Moderate Income Pipeline Projects 32 units 1,455 units Accessory Dwelling Units for Moderate and Above Moderate -Income Households As noted in Section 3 of this Appendix, the City anticipates a total of 72 ADUs affordable at moderate income levels and 5 ADUs affordable at the above moderate -income level. The ADU production strategy for the City is thoroughly described in Appendix D: Accessory Dwelling Units. Remaining Need Table B- below displays the City's RHNA allocation need affordable to moderate and above moderate - income households for the years 2021-2029 as well as the City's net RHNA allocation need affordable to moderate and above moderate households after the inclusion of Projects in the Pipeline and ADUs. Table 13-8-7: Moderate and Above Moderate -Income Remaining Need Selection of Sites to Accommodate Remaining Need As noted in Section 3 of this Appendix, the City conducted a public process to establish Focus Areas for rezone. Similar to the strategies laid out for lower-income units, the development of moderate and above moderate units was projected within each Focus Area as well.

The Sites Inventory Each of the following sections describes the identified areas and contains a table of redevelopment assumptions and projected unit capacities. Additionally, each Focus Area is followed by a map detailing the adequate sites inventory, organized by area. This inventory should be understood as a large pool of sites from which the City can accommodate development and maintain capacity to meet the RHNA allocation as assigned. It is unlikely every site will develop housing &,units; therefore the larger inventory has been presented with realistic buildout assumptions. These buildout assumptions serve to both help the City properly project housing development for transportation and infrastructure needs, and to more accurately project development for the purposes of the Sites Inventory. Letters of Interest Manv sites within the sites inventory are characterized as non -vacant. Of those sites. 82 have received letters of interest from developers that would like to build housing and other mixed-use projects on the parcels. Approximately 25 percent of all sites in the inventory have an explicit letter of interest from aan owner/developer. The large volume of letters of interest proves that there is a strong appetite within the City of Newport Beach to develop on non -vacant sites including small, non -vacant sites (see Section 3, Small Sites). This is further supported by the list of in the pipeline projects list in this Appendix. Airport Area Environs The Airport Area Environs has been an active area for development in the City for several years. The development of higher -density residential units within this Focus Area can be expected to accommodate lower-income units. Increasing density within the Airport Area was also a key strategy as part of the City's 4th and 5th Cycle Housing Element Updates. As a result, high-density developments such as Phase 1A of the Uptown Newport Apartments have been made possible. This development achieved a density of 56 du/acre and provided about 91 units of Low and Very Low -Income housing in the City. There are plans to continue this development, which are described below. In addition to the Uptown Newport Apartment Project, there is interest to develop multi -family housing. As of November 2021, there are four approved and two pending projects within the Airport Area. These projects would construct higher density housing for the area. Table B-101 is a summarized version of Attachments 1 through 3. For more detailed information, please visit the Attachments.

In 2017, the West Newport Mesa Area gained 81 detached condominiums in addition to 73 mobile home spaces through the development of the Ebb Tide Project. The development area achieved a density of approximately 17 du/acre. The adjacent Hoag hospital and supportive medical -related activities further support the opportunity to provide housing for local workers of various income levels and encourage multi -family living spaces in the area adjacent to the Hospital. Of the 55 acres of land deemed suitable for residential development in the West Newport Mesa Area, 47 acres met the criteria required by AB 1397 for sites projected to accommodate Low and Very Low -Income units. Although the parcels within the Sites Inventory have the capacity to accommodate approximately 2,000 units of development (at an assumed unit yield of 50 du/ac), an assumption of approximately 47% redevelopment has been applied considering development history, economic factors, and AFFH requirements. The assumed buildout is therefore projected at 1,107 units, 332 of which are projected to develop affordably. Table B-12 below displays the capacity and opportunity in this Focus Area which can help accommodate the City's RHNA allocation.

In 2019, the Dover -Westcliff Area gained 23 townhouse style multi -family homes through the completion of the Lidos Villas Project. The development area achieved a density of approximately 19 du/acre. This project demonstrates the ability to develop multi -family housing in this desirable part of the City. In addition to the Lidos Villas Project, there is interest to continue developing multi -family housing. As of November 2021, there is one approved and one pending project within the Dover -Westcliff Area. These projects would construct higher density housing for the area. Table B-154 is a summarized version of Attachments 1 through 3. For more detailed information, please visit the Attachments. Table B-154: Dover -Westcliff Area Pipeline Projects Summarized Project Density Evidence for Future Development Approved Projects West Coast Highway Mixed -Use 36 du/acre (26.7 du/acre The Project consolidates excluding the density bonus) multiple smaller lots into one large development site. The Project demonstrates that nonvacant sites are viable for redevelopment into high- density residential and mixed- use developments. Pending Projects Newport Village Mixed -Use 20 du/acre The Project site currently has older office buildings and associated parking lots. The Project would demonstrate that nonvacant sites can be viable for redevelopment into higher density residential and mixed- use developments. Of the 29 acres of land deemed suitable for residential development in the Dover -Westcliff Area, 18 acres met the criteria required by AB 1397 for sites projected to accommodate Low and Very Low -Income units. Although the parcels within the Sites Inventory have the capacity to accommodate approximately 950 units of development (at an assumed unit yield of 50 du/ac), an assumption of approximately 52% redevelopment has been applied considering development history, economic factors, and AFFH requirements. The assumed buildout is therefore projected at 458 units, 137 of which are projected to develop affordably.

Currently, the City is in ongoing communication with a developer that has expressed written and verbal interest in develoDine 34 acres of the focus area at 60 dwelling unit aEre. du/acre. The property owner, the County of Orange, has expressed interest written interest in housing development and they have entered into an option agreement with the developer to plan and develop the property Environmental Constraints While siting buildings atop a landfill includes structural and environmental constraints, Tait is an industry leader in developing more productive uses on and around closed landfills. Tait believes both the structural and environmental constraints can be overcome with proven previously used techniques. Two opportunities exist with the property. First is residential development atop the landfill itself. Sizable portions of the closed landfill have shallow depths (i.e., less than 25 feet) that can be excavated to a solid substrate that could then accommodate residential construction. This area may be up to 34.5 acres in size. The second opportunity on the County -owned parcel is an approximately 3424 -acre portions adjacent to the landfill that is not subject to the environmental constraints of the landfill itself. Y4ti7These portions of +,—are considered an ideal opportunity for future residential development. Either location would include methane mitigation systems ensuring the health and safety of future residents. Developer Interest The City has received specific outreach for two parcels, both of which are reflected within this inventory. Of primary note is the closed Coyote Canyon landfill and adjacent areas. The parcel is owned by the County of Orange (County) who has entered into an agreement with Tait and Associates (Tait) for the future development. Both Tait and the County have expressed interest in developing the site with affordable and market rate housing. Tait has recently communicated an interest to develop 34 -acres of the site at a density of 60 du/acre and at a 75 percent redevelopment rate. Of secondary note is the approximately 28 -acre property across Newport Coast Drive with a development proposal for 10 units. Less than one acre of this property is expected to develop with housing. The site is presently developed with a private school and the school is interested in developing low-cost housing for a portion of its workforce. Sites Inventory Information Although the parcels within the Sites Inventory have the capacity to accommodate 2,630 units of development (at an assumed unit yield of 60 du/ac), an assumption of approximately 755% redevelopment has been applied considering develepment ;istery,eeepefflie f-acters, an�'�H r�.�:r`w � Ascleveloper interest and agreements. Therefore, the assumed buildout is projected at 1,595 530 units, X383 of which are projected to develop for low and very low-income households. An extensive analvsis of site feasibilitv and site level due diligence has occurred on the site in consideration of the current environmental constraints. An extensive effort to identify the actual feasible area of development potential. As shown in the figure below, extensive site analysis has identified the acreage on the site that has the most appropriate conditions for residential development.

Coyote Canyon Total Acreage Development Potential: 2,736 units Appendix B: Sites Analysis (DRAFT -DECEMBER. =I JANUARY 2022) B-82 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Banning Ranch Area In the development of adecluate sites to accommodate the City s 2021-2029 RHNA erowth need. the Cit of Newport Beach believes Banning Ranch is a viable opportunity for future residential development as evidenced by prior development submittals, pre -zoning of the area and consistent General Plan land use policies. Upon review of this opportunity, multiple agencies at the State of California expressed concerns about the viability of future residential in the area. In response to this, Tthe Banning Ranch Focus Area is not used to accommodatel' eet any portion the City's 2021-2029 RHNA growth need. The City's 2021- 2029 RHNA will b66 accommodatedfl+et through analysis of the other Focus Areas identified in this Housing Element. Banning Ranch is therefore an additional policy option that will desires to preserve, as it is consistent with existing land use policy in the Newport Beach General Plan. The approximately 527 -acre Banning Ranch Focus Area is inclusive of the 401 -acre Banning Ranch property and has been identified in prior planning periods to accommodate future housing needs. Specific to the Banning Ranch property, the site has been the subject of environmental review by the City of Newport Beach. Consistent with the City of Newport Beach General Plan, The Banning Ranch site is designated OS(RV), Open Space/Residential Village, which establishes Open Space as the Primary Use and Residential Village as the Alternative Use. The General Plan Land Use Element specifies that if the property is not acquired for open space within a time period and pursuant to terms agreed to by both the City and property owner, the property could be developed as a Residential Village containing a mix of housing types, limited supporting retail, visitor accommodations, a school, and active community parklands with a majority of the property preserved as open space. The General Plan identifies the maximum intensity of development allowed on the property to include up to 1,375 dwelling units (du), 75,000 square feet (sf) of retail commercial uses oriented to serve the needs of local and nearby residents, and 75 hotel rooms in a small boutique hotel or other type of overnight visitor accommodation. The Newport Beach Banning Ranch Project and Program EIR were approved by the City during the 5th RHNA cycle. The active oilfield with surface and subsurface oil production facilities was proposed for development consistent with the allowable land uses and development intensity set forth in the Newport Beach General Plan. Banning Ranch is in the coastal zone and the project approved by the City of Newport Beach required approval by the California Coastal Commission. In 2016, the Coastal Commission staff recommended approval of a modified project subject to multiple conditions of approval. Approximately 19.7 acres of the site (non-contiguous) were identified by Coastal Commission staff for development noting that the developable land was outside of mapped constraints. Mapped constraints included biological and cultural resources. Staff recommended approval of the project as conditioned to include oil well abandonment and clean-up to the appropriate levels with habitat restoration, protection of all sensitive resources both biological and cultural, development of water quality improvements, and the residential areas connected with a road with all infrastructure and utilities outside of the mapped constraints, and vehicular access limited to 17th Street. Staff also recommended that 329 acres be dedicated to open space and habitat restoration. Appendix B: Sites Analysis (DRAFT PFCPA RFR =I JANUARY 2022) B-83 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT ti a.« 4u swv- .a+ The project applicant and the Coastal Commission could not reach agreement on the Coastal Commission staff's revised development proposal including the conditions of approval and the Coastal Commission denied the project in September 2016. The property owner was not provided the ability to adequately rebut these presumptions that ultimately led to the denial of the project. The complete extent of those resource constraints and the extent that development buffers were necessary was not fully vetted at the time the project was denied. While the City supports conservation of the site, the City also believes more land can be determined free of environmental constraints allowing residential development. For this reason, the City is assuming that 30 acres within the Banning Ranch Focus Area can be developed for housing. The Coastal Act allows for the resolution of conflicts between competing priorities. The State is in a housing crisis and the Coastal Act encourages housing development, including affordable housing, when not subject to hazards. The Coastal Act also requires development to avoid and mitigate environmental impacts. These two seemingly conflicting goals can be balanced in ways that provides for both housing production and sensitive resource protection. Any housing development will mitigate impacts to sensitive resources leading to further restoration of nearby degraded resources in the area. Additionally, the Coastal Act promotes maximum access to the coast for all Californians and development of Banning Ranch will provide significant enhancements to access in an environmentally sensitive way while assisting the City to meet environmental justice principles. Ultimately the City believes future opportunities exist for housing development on the Banning Ranch. The property owner is negotiating the possible sale of the property to the Trust for Public Lands for conservation. However, while significant funds have been pledged, a significant gap in funds to acquire the site remains. If retained as open space, the General Plan Land Use Element specifies that the Primary Open Space land use alternative include consolidation of oil operations; restoration of wetlands; the provision of nature education and interpretative facilities and an active park containing playfields and other facilities to serve residents of adjoining neighborhoods. Under both the Open Space and Residential Village land use designations, the Orange County Master Plan of Arterial Highways identifies roadways through the property extending from Pacific Coast Highway to 17th Street. The property owner has expressed a desire to pursue development of the site with housing and other community -serving uses if the site is not acquired for public use. The value of the development opportunities will assist with the consolidation of the oil drilling operations and site remediation. Based on City staff understanding of the previous development proposal, the Banning Ranch property, consultations with the property owner, the site has the potential to feasibly accommodate a minimum of 1,475 units of development on approximately 30 acres of the considerably larger property. The assumed buildout is therefore projected at 1,475 units, 443 of which are projected to develop for low and very low- income households.

From Cesar Covarrubias : Have surplus land sites from the City and the Special Districts been identified at opportunity sites?

David T Q 4 4. What are the consequences to the City if the RHNA housing allocations identified in the Housing EI to are not met? Is there a difference in the consequences between un -met affordable and market rate units? Answers to these 4 questions will provide the public with a clearer picture of the regional impacts facing the City. It will provide insight if the City does nothing and the rationale behind the City's plan to address these challenges. Charles Klobe: There is no stated penalty by the state for trying and failing to find willing landowners who want to rezone Housing Suitability Virtual Workshop: Workshop Summary 12 their land for high density lower income housing.

To get to 2,400 or so affordable they need to b d 48,000 market rate apartments @ 5% which pencils according to the developers I have spoken to. Never going to happen although the developers are drooling to build them. David Tanner: Staff updated the City Council a week ago and said Staff was concentrating on the Housing Element. Please clarify Housing Suitability Virtual Workshop: Workshop Summary 14 P.

I love Newport Shores. 18:13:12 From Melanie Schlotterbeck to Everyone : Melanie Schlotterbeck (representing Olen Properties), Great housing: San Jose 18:13:27 From Charles Klobe to Everyone: Baker Block in Costa Mesa 18:13:30 From Dorothy Kraus to Everyone: One Nautical Mile, 15th street, West Newport 18:13:55 From Sonja Trauss to Everyone: Sonja Philadelphia! Row houses, classic human scale form 18:18:39 From Susan Eaton to Everyone: Camarillo Homeless Housing Community formed at a decommissioned military facility. It is a large group of housing with medical facilities, local bus service, rehabilitated older units and family area in newer LEED certified housing. It felt like Park Newport where I live and love where I live. 18:22:04 From Susan Eaton to Everyone : Camarillo is in Long Beach. 18:23:11 From Mary Ann Soden to Everyone : I wish I could stay for this entire meeting, but cannot tonight. Here are my two cents. The plan appears to propose zoning a whopping 9,957 dwelling units to meet the 4845 allocation. That is not in the best interest of the City. Plan definitely needs reduction of the DU within the sight plane over Newport Center to ensure the zoning is compliant with that municipal commitment. Consideration of housing partnerships with affordable housing non profits to build what is needed and required, not 3217 above mod units that are not responsive Housing Element - Initial Draft Housing Element Workshop 2 to the FHNA allocation. I'll follow up further online. Thank you. 18:24:46 From Jenna Tourje to Everyone: Thank you, Mary Ann!

So, some of 347 low/very low, 86 mod units would be zoned on Banning Ranch? If yes, how many? Thank you. 18:58:58 From Herman Basmaciyan to Everyone : Is my understanding correct that the City has to show the capacity for accommodating these units, not necessarily make sure that the units are constructed? What happens if no developer comes in to construct the units? Are there any consequences? Will this plan require an environmental review and require that it is consistent with all other elements of the General Plan? 19:00:27 From Herman Basmaciyan to Everyone : The preceding questions are from Herman Basmaciyan. 19:07:07 From Sonja Trauss to Everyone: RHNA is a minimum, so if Newport Beach produces more housing and exceeds its RHNA, that's great, all the better. California has a housing shortage. 19:07:35 From John Loper to Everyone : Is there a reason why there are no plans for new housing in the Coastal Zone? Such as the Peninsula. Are there some sites that could be redeveloped? 19:07:45 From Christian Mendez (K&W) Technical Support to Everyone: To find the draft Housing Element, copy and paste this link into your browser: www.newportbeachca.gov/DraftHEUpdate 19:22:51 From Dorothy Kraus to Everyone: Jenna/Jim, will the City respond to each public comment submitted regarding the Draft HE update?

Why would the incentives take 2 years to employ? 19:36:49 From karen martin to Everyone : will this recording be available on the website? 19:37:45 From Jenna Tourje to Everyone : Hi Karen - the recording will be available this week on www. NewportTogether.com 19:37:54 From Jenna Tourje to Everyone : including a transcript of the chat as well 19:43:01 From John Loper to Everyone: would this be something as 5% very low, 5% low and 5% mod income levels? 19:44:02 From Glenn Hellyer to Everyone : Would the Inclusionary program be voluntary with density bonus as opposed to mandatory? 19:45:02 From John Loper to Everyone : thank you 19:47:50 From Christian Mendez (K&W) Technical Support to Everyone: To find the draft Housing Element, copy and paste this link into your browser: www.newportbeachca.gov/DraftHEUpdate 19:48:27 From Christian Mendez (K&W) Technical Support to Everyone: To find more information on the project, copy and paste this link into your browser: www.newporttogether.com. 19:49:05 From Charles Klobe to Everyone: The final draft will go to the City Council for a vote to submit, modify and submit, or revisit and submit nearer to the date it is due. It takes four City Council Members to advance this or another version. You will note that there has been no direct answer to the max possible units question. Estimates have run over 20,000 new apartments. Newport Beach land prices do not support single family homes or condos as affordable. This is about high density, high rise apartment construction only. There are alternative approaches that the City has chosen not to pursue. If you think the City should seek alternate ideas, please write to the City Council Members and ask them to slow this process down and visit alternate ideas. 19:50:06 From Dorothy Kraus to Everyone : will we get a response from city for our comments like what's done with either 19:50:46 From Dorothy Kraus to Everyone : Thank you. 19:51:23 From Dorothy Kraus to Everyone: will comments be made public? 19:52:11 From Dorothy Kraus to Everyone : comments in response 19:55:56 From Glenn Hellyer to Everyone : Thank you all! 19:57:10 From Susan De Santis to Everyone: Thank you! 19:57:17 From Christian Mendez (K&W) Technical Support to Everyone: To find the draft Housing Element, copy and paste this link into your browser: www.newportbeachca.gov/DraftHEUpdate Housing Element - Initial Draft Housing Element Workshop 4 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT This section contains the summary and chat responses from the virtual Community Workshop 5.

I assumethe "inventory area" is acreage, I see Banning Ranch is listed at 46 acres. Is this net acres, not Net acreage is the assumed inclusive of sensitive habitat? If this has not been vetted, the assumed density may not be accurate or acreage used for calculating comparable if you have to cram more units on less footprint. unit yield and may be less It doesn't seem logical to me to include Banning Ranch as 1 of 3 major focus areas (ie. Airport Area - 2,022 than total acreage of the units, Newport Center- 1,814 units and Banning Ranch - 1,375). These are fairly comparable total net unit site. numbers, but the locations are vastly different. The Airport Area and Newport Center both clearly meet the SCAG/RHNA requirements for focusing 50% on transit -oriented locations and 50% on those with job Banning Ranch focus area is accessibility. The allocation of units between these 3 areas doesn't seem to be proportionate to the goals. identified in the current Beyond this, Banning Ranchseems to be a much more environmentally sensitive area. General Plan and is Lastly, it seems very aggressive and unfeasible to propose 1,375 units on Banning Ranch afterthe last plan that generally consistent with Coastal Commission voted down was based on a developer -proposed "reasonable" number of 895 units. the assumptions in the Increasing the proposed unit target over what has already been rejected seems like an exercise in futility. Housing Element Draft We need housing. The Banning Ranch site needs to be considered. But perhaps it is more practicalto target +/-895 units.

What a terrible shameto take it away! Please reconsider by maintaining Newport Beach's open spaces and please don't bend to the pressure like other cities have succumbed to by jamming structures on top of one another. NO on rezoning golf course. Green space cannot be replaced. Our quality of life is at stake Comment Noted. Please do not rezone the Newport Beach golf course off of Mesa and Irvine. It will take awayfrom the Comment Noted. character of the community and city and we really don't have a lot of open space. I strongly oppose the low- income housing or any additional housing for that area.

We do not need any more high/medium density housing made out of cheap materials that are popping up all Comment Noted. over Newport Beach. They look like units that are designed for affordable housing placed on prime real estate. Keep our green spaces exactlythat and create a park with recreational facilities for our families. We do not need any more housing in Newport Beach. This just adds to more crowded living, traffic congestion, and widening of streets. We are stronglyagainst the rezone of Newport Beach Golf Course and want to see it remain as -is. It is an Comment Noted. irreplaceable community recreational asset. Changing this for residential will set a bad precedent for development and elimination of othergolf courses, parks, sports fields, beaches, open space, Back Bay, etc. Housing without such extremely negative impacts can be done with free market incentives by higher density rezoning of existing residential/commercial but never on open space, a red line that cannot be crossed. City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Public Review Draft Comments Response to Comments Please do not rezone the Newport Beach golf course off of Mesa and I rvine. It will take away from the Comment Noted. character of the community and city-- we really don't have a lot of open space. I stronglyoppose the low- income housing or any additional housing for that area. That golf course brings a lot of joy to the below average golfer who just wants to socialize and learn the game and that is a good thing for the sport as well. I've lived in Newport since 1975 and I'm saddened by all the changes - it's alreadytoo crowded and this would just add to it. As a resident and neighbor in close proximity to the proposed location for rezoning on Birch St in Newport Comment Noted. Beach, I'd like to let my voice be heard and vote NO to the proposed changes. This area is an extremely high traffic area. Cars can often be seen racing up and down the area. There is a lot of congestion in this area. It's not an ideal corner for walking or stopping for an entrance. The golf course keeps the lands beauty and allows for recreational ratherthan loading this high traffic area into an even bustier and more dangerous intersection. There have been several deaths at this intersection and countless accidents. Having small children and being so close we don't want to exacerbate the problem of high-density traffic when we are already challenged with so many break-ins. In addition to keeping this portion of Newport Beach recreational is ideal. It really makes the land desirable and beautiful considering we have enough traffic and pollution living next to the airport. Please keep the space green & for recreational purposes. Please DON'T rezone holes 3-8 on the Mesa Dr side. This is a popular and irreplaceable community recreational asset that will be lost if rezoning happens. For the good of the community please reconsider and vote no to rezoning this gem.

There is no list of programs. I am against the City of Newport Beach changing the land use of the Newport Beach Golf Course and possibly Comment Noted. the YMCAto make way for new housing in the Bayview Heights neighborhood. We do not want or need the zoning changed to make our area more dense. Our community is a small one already and now you want to over build it and make it more dense. The city has already approved rezoning for a multi storysenior care facility where Kitayama was on Bristol even though the neighborhood was against it. 3 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Public Review Draft Comments Response to Comments Now you want to build 100's of houses on the others ide of our neighborhood on Mesa Dr. Where does it end? It's a total money grab for millions of dollars once the land is sold for development. Plus, residents enjoy the recreation facilities like the public golf course and the YMCA. The city is rezoning plenty around other parts of Newport Beach so please leave the Back Bay alone so we may enjoy the little open space we do have.

The area by the SNA Airport (where I live) would be the most logical and appropriate area to put the majority of this high-density housing: it would be compatible with the multi -story commercial buildings and hotels that exist there now. Also, this area's proximityto major freeways would lessen the traffic traveling through our city. Please do not touch the Newport Beach Golf Course in the Back Bay- our city needs these public recreational areas. Yachting,golf, tennis, hiking and outdoor activities are central to our community. Please keep this housing away from the coast -there is already enough traffic congestion there, as well as serious concerns and objections to higher buildings, increased density and incompatibility with existing neighborhoods. We stronglyoppose this [rezoning the NB Golf Course to build housing]! Irvine Ave has just recently been Comment noted. expanded from Bristol to Mesa and can not handle much more traffic during prime drive time. From Mesa to University, it is always backed up. The traffic and negative impact will be horrendous. I hereby voice my objection to the conversion of public land currently utilized as a golf course to multidwelling Comment noted. housing. This proposal is not in the best interests of the citizens of Newport Beach and any progress to move forward with the transaction will result in alienating your constituents. The congestion that is already significant along this stretch of Irvine Blvd, Bristol, 73 FWY and the other streets adjacent tothe Orange County Airport will only increase with this rezoning. Please do not approve the rezoning of this area. The Commission discussed among other things the Sight Plane Ordinance which is a protected view plane The Sight Plane Ordinance granted in 1971 by the Irvine Company to Harbor View Hills.

Please do NOT rezone this area and remove this proposal entirely from this location. It simply cannot supportthe increase in traffic and other related issues. Our specific concern and opposition relates tothe parcels located near and on the current public golf course on Comment noted. Irvine Avenue, Birch, and Mesa streets. 1. Our neighborhood already experiences speed and traffic issues, whetherfrom speeding neighbors or those businesses (delivery or adjacent) using our adjoining streets to bypass traffic on Irvine, Birch, or Bristol. More housing will only contribute tothose safety risks. It is unclear how related circulation and transportation plans would evolve as part of the drafted/planned developments. Our immediate community has witnessed at least a half dozen traffic -related deaths in the immediate area, including pedestrians, motorcyclists, and auto drivers. We've even witnessed a helicopter crash that killed three and plane crash that also killed three nearby. As you know, the proposed development is directly under the flight path of flights from J WA. 2. We live in a beautiful City whose residents value open space and the natural areas in, around, and through our neighborhoods. Replacing the open spaces with residential or commercial development will further impede into and degradethe City's natural habitats that make us unique, robbing our families of the public space experience we've come to enjoy and hold dear. 3. Significant environmental impact can be expected not just in the area currently defined by the golf course, but to the watershed feeding to and from the Back Bayand the natural preserve surrounding it. 4. While it is unclear how any of the development and infrastructure will be funded, we are concerned our families will bear some financial burden in supporting the potential developments. Development of any portion of the golf course is not a solution we can or are willing to support. Please help us in preserving the City we want to commit to in the long term. I do not support the near 100% buffer and the inclusion of almost 10,000 units in the Housing Element. I The Housing Element understand the need for a buffer, but not more than 15-20%.l would rather see us have to review/revise our identifies potential sites to w City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Public Review Draft Comments Response to Comments Housing Element in a few years, as opposed to suggesting that an extensive amount of existing commercial accommodate future areas be converted to residential (or mixed uses).

Newport Beach is not alone in its concern with the RHNA allocations and requirements. I disagree with construction. Sites moving forward with the planning efforts to allow this many housing units. identified in the Housing Element mayor may not be utilized in future rezoning efforts. The buffer is used to protect the Cityfor the implications of no net loss provisions in state law. There is currently nothing to cap the number of housing units that could be constructed in the Housing The potential overlay zones Element to 4,845 units. Before the Housing Element is approved, those caps must be in place, e.g., zoning or other appropriate zoning overlays that limit the development in each study area of the city. I believe those overlay zones should tool will be adopted recognize existing ordinances. For example the City's Sight Plane Ordinance, (#1596) that limits the height of subsequent to the Housing all buildings and landscaping to a maximum of 32 feet which applies to the sites in Corporate Plaza, Corporate Element.

I believe that we should be more aggressive in the use of ADUs and JADUs to help reach our RHNAgoals. While The accommodation of I don't think we can meet our entire RHNAgoals with ADUs, I believe the number should be at least double the RHNA need is identified in 334 units that are currently shown in the Housing Element. This topic has been discussed a number of times at the Housing Element by a the Housing Element Update Advisory Committee meetings and there appeared to be general support for an variety means including increase into the 700 -800 -unit range. The laws regarding ADUs have recently been implemented and are overlay zones, existing beginning to be used more widely throughout the City. I think we should take advantage of that in our Housing 0 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Public Review Draft Comments Response to Comments Element and that 700-800 ADUs would be easily achievable. Inaddition, an active program toencourage and entitled projects, available look for unpermitted ADUs should be implemented to take credit for existing, unpermitted ADUs.

The goal of the State in developing the RHNA numbers has been to provide a better housing/jobs balance so As a built -out community that people do not need to drive large distances togetto work. The strategy inthe Housing Element has been with severelylimited vacant to find undeveloped space, primarily in commercial areas of the city, for development of low-income housing land, the majority of new (since the city is largely developed). If we rezone our vibrant commercial areas for residential development, development opportunity we potentially reduce the employment opportunities and further impactthe housing/jobs balance. I would like will occur on infill, existing to stress this point to the state. developed parcels. I remain concerned that more housing has been suggested inthe industrial portion of the City. Specifically, As a built -out community identifying a metal plating facility (Hixson) that is contaminated and undergoing remediation as a potential site with severelylimited vacant for housing and increasing housing near the site, is very poor planning and potentially dangerous. While the land, the majority of new site will likely be remediated, it is doubtful that it would be availablefor residential housing anytime soon. development opportunity will occur on infill, existing developed parcels. We have watched our neighborhood start to transition from an 'empty nester' community to now a 'family' Comment noted. community. Adding a large "low income" apartment complex where open green space is currently located makes no sense from the perspective of creating a family community atmosphere. The more recent families making up our neighborhood have kids that enjoy the 2 parks on Mesa Drive along with the horse trails adjacent to the canal that butts up to the apartment site. This is a disaster waiting to happen and we are totally against it. I am opposed building 100's of units where the golf course back nine is now. Keep our open space! Comment noted. The rezoning of the NBGC front 9 to low income housing is a seriously bad idea. This area is directly under the Comment noted. flight path of John Wayne Airport, falls within an upscale residential community and adds to the overall congestion we experience every day in the area. This is literally the opposite of progress. Why not purchase the property instead. Leave it a golf course or park. Contribute to the natural environment. We don't want to 10 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Public Review Draft Comments Response to Comments see more cars, trash cans and congestion. This is Newport Beach. Not a place that really needs low income housing. Plenty of that exists in ruined communities already like Santa Ana, Anaheim and Garden Grove. Our area alreadysuffers from poor leadership associated with airport expansion. I am adamantly opposed to such a move [rezone part of the Newport Beach Golf Course]. I oppose a housing Comment noted. project there, and any rezoning of this area ... and urge you to take the housing item off the table at this location. I remember losing the Bayview Elementary School on the bluff to high density housing townhouses. And now many of our streets have been rezoned to office buildings. The Newport Beach Golf Course is not only an integral part of our community, but a welcomed breath of fresh air and open space for everyone to come enjoy. It's also one of the very few or only affordable golf facilities open to the public in this area for families to learn and enjoy the game. And it provides a much-needed attractive relief to the corner of Irvine Ave and Mesa Dr. I strongly urge you to leave the Newport Beach Golf Course as it is for all to enjoy, and to maintain the aesthetics of our community. It is hard to briefly summate why all the reasons that turning the golf course into a high-density low-income Comment noted. housing project is a bad idea. Some of the more apparent issues are CEQA related in terms of noise and traffic. Also, removing the only affordable public golf course in Newport Beach is sad to consider. I understandthere may be housing mandates but the folks at this end of town seem to take on an unreasonable burden for solving these types of issues. Please remove this property from consideration. I stronglyoppose the golf course housing project. We want to preserve this are as it is not expand it. Comment noted. Absolutely not! As a local resident and taxpayer, I am against this rezoning [of the Newport Beach Golf Course for high density, Comment noted. low income housing] and am highly concerned about the traffic issues that will compound to an already busy area. We witness at least 1 major accident a month that occurs on the corner of Mesa and Santa Ana and can't imagine how many more there are that we do not see while we are at work. This rezoning is not good for the overall local community, traffic, and safety. I DO NOT support this rezoning and truly encourage to reevaluate this decision. I am completely against the rezoning of the Newport Beach golf course!!! No more High-density housing!!! I Comment noted. live off of Mesa Dr. The traffic alone is unbearable, my son was hit by a car, due to excessive parked cars on 11 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Public Review Draft Comments Response to Comments Mesa Dr. from overflow parking of high-density housing. I can't even pull out of my street without taking a chance of being hit. I'd like to voice my opposition to any plan to rezone the golf course and build high density housing to replace it. Comment noted. Please take this location off consideration. Bayview Heights has alreadygone through a lot of rezoning with office buildings all around us. We want to continue to enjoy and use the open space of the golf course. We like having open spacejust like other communities around Newport Beach. Please stop picking Bayview Heights to rezone. I am against any rezoning or development to any portion of the Newport Beach Golf Course. I stronglyoppose the rezoning of the Newport Beach Golf Course - holes 3-8 (lots 23,24,25,26) and the golf Comment noted. course project. Please take this housing item off the table at this location. Bayview Height is special and unique to all who live here. Living here, we put up with the airport noise and office buildings all around us. Now you want to get rid of our open space (NB Golf Course) and subject us to high density housing. Many people use the NB Golf coursefor great recreation. It will be a great loss to our community. We want to keep the golf course as open space so it can continue to be utilized as an affordable recreational area. Please rethinkthis. You are trying to develop too much in the airport area. We are a small neighborhood, please do not overcrowd us with high density housing. My wife and I are ADAMANTLY OPPOSED tothe potential rezone of the Newport Beach Golf Course to a Comment noted. development for low income housing. The Cityof Newport Beach would be better suited to re -developing this location to one that supports the existing population of the city and creates tax dollars and/or a location that will support further business growth. Low income housing developers will "Sell" cities on the needs of low income housing because it is a business for them to take government funds to build these projects that PAY THE DEVELOPER, but DO NOT SUPPORT A NEED for the Cityof Newport Beach. A low income housing project would do nothing for the actual economy of people who live here other than bring in a body of people who will further their political agenda with voting rights within the Cityof Newport Beach and the attorneys they bring with them. We are ADAMANTLY OPPOSED and will vote against this zone change as well as their supporters at every voting opportunity. 12 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Public Review Draft Comments Response to Comments We know the issue of affordable housing is a big item in our State, and the State of California is imposing edicts Comment noted. on many Cities in regard to this.

This has the potential for hundreds of units to go up in the golf course area. We do not want this! We very strongly oppose this golf course housing project, oppose any rezoning of this area, and demand that you take the housing item off the table at this location. The golf course is currently zoned SP - 7. That means, "Open Space and Recreational District: SP -7 (OS/R) - Open Space and Recreational District is intended to establishthe long-term use and viability of the Newport Beach Golf Course." Our family opposes the re -zoning of the NB Golf Course area to build high density low-income housing on Mesa Comment noted. Drive. We've always focused on the Bayview Heights equestrian neighborhood for its open space and the neighborhood itself, the safetyfor our 2 year old and soon -to -be -born second child, the schools, the cleanliness, the community, the slower paced feel you don't quite get in the hustle bustle of the peninsula. This will absolutely affect our health and safety, it will increase traffic, impact the environment (the natural preservation of the Back-Bayarea), and it will affect our schools and my kids' education. I am by no means opposed to low-income housing. I understand the need and support the fact that Orange County should provide more of it. Please find an alternative location and remove this housing item off the table at this location. I am writing to you today to express my extreme opposition to turning the front seven holes of our golf course Comment noted. into public housing. It makes absolutely no sense to take away recreational and park areas from the public mainly becausethe population density in the surrounding areas are already increasing at an alarming rate and we will need all the open spaces we can get to make sure people have a place for relaxation and recreation. It is well known and well published that affordable housing should never be concentrated in one area as The Housing Element originally contemplated in the Airport area. Historytells us that this can lead to significant problems within responds to the communities. The concept of in -lieu fees appears to contribute to this problem. Have we conducted a study requirements of AB 686. by an affordable housing professional that tells us how to allocate low-income and market rate units Council direction has 13 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Public Review Draft Comments Response to Comments intelligently throughout the City in a way that will address this concern?

You would not have to look any further explore inclusionary policy than our One Uptown Newport property as a successful mixed income development providing affordable to further explore rental units (based on 50% of OC median proportional mix of income) for 20% of the property's residents in Orange County's most affluent city. Our recommendatio incomes. n is to create a fair and proportional mix of 60% market and 40% affordable (low and moderate incomes) ratio equally in high opportunity locations which have the capacityfor multifamily housing and are consistent with good urban land use planning. In our opinion those areas are the Airport, Newport Center, Coyote Canyon, and Banning Ranch. The proposed densities are not based on product that can actually be built from a development perspective. Future implementing Three storygarden product at most can achieve 30 units to an acre. Moving up the density scale is Type V revisions to the Zoning Code wrap product which jumps to approximately 55 units to an acre. Type II I wrap will provide approximately 75 will consider a varietyof units per acre (Newport Crossing). Type V podium (One Uptown) can achieve approximately 85 units per development regulations acre. Type III podium is about 100 units per acre. As you can see, densities at 40 units per acre (proposed and standards addressing Coyote Canyon) and 45 units per acre (proposed Newport Center) simply do not exist in a realistic feasibility, development 14 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Public Review Draft Comments Response to Comments development. The reason is the cost of building a costly concrete garage in either a wrap or podium project incentives among other typically requires the higher density (in excess of 55 units per acre) to achieve a viable economic development considerations. given the high land prices in Newport Beach. Three storygarden apartment product (at 30 units per acre) which provide surface parking for its residents and is best suited to cities with an abundance of inexpensive land unlike Newport Beach, which is basically completely built out. Our suggestion is to take advantage of the high opportunity locations and create higher densities for the Airport Area, Newport Center, Coyote Canyon, and Banning Ranch. Coyote Canyon is public land and, in our opinion, should serve one of the most pressing public issues, The Coyote Canyon area has affordable housing. Density at 40 du per acre as stated above seems like an opportunity lostfor more environmental residential units given it is public land, not immediately surrounded by single family homes. One of the considerations that limit use Housing Element Update Advisory Committee members, Paul Fruchbom, suggested using part the landfill for of the entire site for parking for the 22 developable acres.

Further, assumptions in the plan are approximations subject to change based upon actual feasibility. 100% Senior Affordable Housing is a great way for cities to meet their state affordable housing requirements as The Housing Element well as providing much needed housing for the local community.

Senior Affordable projects are typically less than 100 units specific policy programs. providing many opportunities throughout the cityto find an appropriate development location. What was the methodology used to analyzethe potential ADU units? ADU's appearto be low hanging fruit to The methodology to utilize assist insatisfyingthe city's RHNA requirement, and we are sure there are many opportunities that existthat ADUs is provided in a new 15 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Public Review Draft Comments Response to Comments were not counted. It was mentioned during the April 27th City Council Housing Element study session that the Appendix D, in support of City's target for ADU's should be 1,000. We concur. We believe the high opportunity locations should all the City's desire to enhance shoulder their share of the lower income affordable units. This results in a fair distribution and is good urban ADU construction to meet planning, which lays the foundation for the cityto create land use and zoning policies that maintain local its RHNA need. control. As a user of Newport Golf Course ("NGC"), I stronglyobject to the above proposal for the following reasons: a. Comment noted. It is a badly needed recreation facility which would be severelydamaged by the proposed development. b. It would severely impact the surrounding area and home values. I am opposed to the rezoning of the NB Golf Course for low income housing Per state requirements. The golf Comment noted. course is open to the public, the only one I believe in NB and enjoyed by many NB residents as well as everyone else. The golf course also provides a buffer from the airport and is under the flight path Which is another consideration. Since the State is requiring the housing project it only makes sense to me for the State to provide unused State land or empty State buildings that can be refurbished To meet their own requirements, instead of "forcing" cities to rezone public City Land or private land for that matter. How is this low income high density housing project going to impact our property values? Who do we see Comment noted. about that? Many of us in this NB neighborhood have worked hard for many years toacquire homes here and enjoy our quality of life here, again, who do we see about that potential impact to us? Note my opposition to Rezoning NB Golf Course. I OPPOSE the housing project of the Newport Beach Golf Course. I OPPOSE any rezoning of this area. Remove Comment noted. the project from the agenda. There is too much traffic alreadyon Irvine Ave. Increased traffic is not safe for pedestrians and cyclists. Environmentally it is not responsible to proceed with this residential proposition. As I drive in and out of my neighborhood I see people enjoying the golf course. Singles, families and I have Comment noted. seen an increase in young people playing golf at the golf course. Better to see young people on the golf course than on "the streets". I opposethe golf course housing project, I oppose any rezoning of this area. Please take 16 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Public Review Draft Comments Response to Comments the housing item off the table at this location.

We need to keep the Newport Beach Golf Course, it's part of where we live and we treasure our community as is. Meeting with our neighbors we couldn't find anyone who agrees with the rezoning, and we oppose this plan 100%. Please take the housing item off the table at this location. I am writing to express myconcern for the rezoning proposal of the Newport Beach Golf Course for residential Comment noted. housing. As a long time member of this community it is upsetting to see the cities of Newport Beach and Costa Mesa more focused on profit ratherthan the best interest of the community. This additional housing project would not only take away one of the few recreational areas we have left in the community but also create a traffic nightmare in the area. We have already seen pedestrians struckand killed in the cross walks at Irvine/Mesa as well as Irvine/University. How do you expect we could properly manage the traffic flow with this additional housing project? I strongly encourage you to oppose this awful idea to rezone a beautiful open space at the golf course into Comment noted. more high density housing that will only further clog and pollute a busy area around the airport. I further would encourageyou to oppose nitwit ideas and mandates coming from Sacramentothat only serve to destroyour once beautiful and safe city. Crime and drug addicts currently littering our once safe neighborhoods is a clear example of failed policies coming from Sacramento. Please do what's right for the constituents of your city and maintain what we have left. Residents seem totreasuretheir quality of life in Newport Beach. This includes a quiet airport, unobstructed Comment noted. views, and unclogged roadways. While this is not always possible, I believe that the city takes the necessary steps to ensure all the voices are heard and important input is considered. Understanding the pieces of this puzzle (building stock, roadways, utilities below grade, community risk, et al) at the ground level may prove to be beneficial if you chose to consider my thoughts. While I often hear about the city being "built -out" I do not entirely subscribe to the belief. The district/area that has the least sophisticated development if the Airport Area of the city. This area is surrounded on three sides by adjacent jurisdictions and heavily impacted by decisions of the other local governments. Additionally, 17 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Public Review Draft Comments Response to Comments the school district in this section of Newport Beach is the Santa Ana Unified School district. I'm sure this is unknown tothe many new residents destined to move here who recognize that these cities are significantly different in many ways. Some have suggested that a change in district boundaries to address the issue, and while this may feel good to proffer, I don't see that happening anytime soon. It is safe to say that the Airport Area differs in many respects from the remainder of Newport Beach. Because of this a different vision statement maybe needed in this specific community to seriously address the new development that is likely to occur in that area in the future. When I look at the General Plan vision statement, I fail to see how that can be realistically represented in the Airport Area. This area will seethe Lion's share of the RHNAlow/moderate units and be more intensively developed. This is something that wiII take well considered vision and political leadership not before seen in Newport Beach to be done properly given the forces that will be aligned against new construction.

While we do not disagreethat housing could be added to certain areas of the Airport Area -adequate resident - based services and amenities must also be included with those developments. The Business Parks that cover the majority of the Airport Area were not originally intended to be residential areas and are therefore lacking in many of the standard amenities and services one would expect to find in a residential neighborhood (grocery stores, parks, restaurants, banks, child-care facilities, etc.)The Cityshould investthe time now to determine where these amenities, parks and services should be, or the Citywill be functionally promoting increased densification without properly planning for how this new housing density can alsobe high-quality, "livable communities."

We appreciate the opportunity comment on the Housing Element Update, but remain concerned that the private property rights of existing businesses will be adversely impacted by the City's expansion of housing units unless additional considerations are evaluated by the City. We are also concerned that the City is inadequately planning for the types of parks, amenities and services that would create good quality of life for these new neighborhoods, and for the City's business and residents as a whole. This concept of livable communities should be a central focus of the current planning process in addition to the question of where to potentially place new housing units.

The Housing Element should be harmonized with the LCP and Environmental Elements BEFORE SUBMISSION A program EIR will be TO BE CERTIFIED. The fact that Banning Ranch is mentioned as a housing option after the Coastal Commission prepared in conjunction denied building and development options is either an attempt to "allocate housing to a back hole that has not with the Housing Element potential, but looks good" and an attempt to undermine the Coastal Commission and set into play afight update. between twostate agencies. The Cityof Newport Beach should be honest and communicate clearly its intention. A past survey of residents clearlygave the city a clear dictate to preserve Banning Ranch and facilitate its acquisition for open space and public access.

Comment noted. 21 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Public Review Draft Comments Response to Comments This element does not do enough to level the playing field to allow residents to add an additional story to Comment noted. facilitate families living together. One of the challenges of the cost of housing is that families are being separated and longtime residents areforced to sell to access equity, while adding another story could allow more residents to provide housing for aging parents (on the ground floor) or house adult children with their families on upper floors. Currently many remodels and new construction in West Newport are able to achieve 3 story construction using expensive variances, lawyers and political influence. The city has created an exclusive club that contributes to the housing shortage. The fastest wayto more housing is to allow residents more freedom for "Mother/daughter" type construction. These would not be condos, but units with the ability of twofamilies living together. Eventually, this can lead to duplex or triplex rentals, but that process can be paced out by economics and zoning plans overtime.

The city would be better served at add mental health counselors in the police department to go on calls relatedto those wondering the streets with mental health and addition issues.

I respectfully request that you NOT approve any rezoning of the Newport Beach Golf Course area as outlined in Comment noted. the Draft of the General Plan Housing Element Update (PA2017-141), presented during the Study Session on 4/27/2021.

I believe many other residents in Newport Beach and the surrounding area enjoy using the Golf Course and do not want to see it or any portion thereof changed out for a Housing project. This project would have a Negative impact on our Bayview/ Santa Ana Heights Neighborhood. In regard to traffic in the area, Irvine Ave. is already incredibly congested at various hours of the day and adding more volume will only make it worse and we will see an increase in accidents. Please vote no on rezoning the Newport Beach Golf Course to a high density, low-income housing zone. Comment noted. As long as the golf course chooses to remain open to the public for golf, they should be permittedto keep their 18 holes. I am not a golfer, but I enjoy seeing people enjoy their sport. While I recognizethat low cost housing is in great need, this location is hardly a great location for low cost housing. It places it in the middle of a community, with few closejob opportunities/career paths that don't require a commute. Things like local grocery, diverse public transportation, and local medical should all be considerations for a high density low cost housing complex. I don't see that kind of infrastructure in this area. Meanwhile you will be removing one of the few public golf courses Newport Beach can lay claim too. This is a notice of strong objection to the proposed Newport Housing Element zoning changes for the Newport Comment noted. Golf Club LLC ("Unique ID Parcels 23 to 26). The effects of this proposal will negatively impact the areas immediately adjacent to the proposed development densification by overloading the Mesa Drive/ Birch and Irvine Avenue roadways. Morning and evening peak wait times at intersections currently approach 5 minutes and queue from Irvine Avenue to Orchard Drive. A number of years agothe circulation element was modified along with the County's Master Plan of Arterial Highways (MPAH)to eliminate the University Drive Extension to Jamboree Road and to remove the Mesa Drive connection on assurances that development and densities would not be increased. This proposal would violate those assurances and previous planning efforts. Additionally, during the creation of the specific area plan for the Santa Ana Heights neighborhood and the LAFCO discussions for its annexation to the City of Newport Beach, the City agreed to retain and preserve the residential rural equestrian zoning (and character) of the neighboring areas in exchange for some limited commercial rezoning along Birch and Irvine Avenues. The proposal under consideration conflicts with those previous planning efforts and commitments from the City, the County (and the previous Redevelopment Agency). 24 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Public Review Draft Comments Response to Comments I am writing to oppose the rezoning of the Newport Beach golf course into high density housing.

Accessory Dwelling Units A new Appendix D has been We are concerned about the City's calculation of ADU production and the lack of support for the numbers that provided supporting the have been included in the Drafts thus far.

For example, the City should evaluate annually the number of ADUs produced and the rental rates at which they are available to the general population, if at all. Based on a review of data, the Cityshould reevaluate its ADU predictions and in the event of a shortfall in production, revise its ADU program and incentives to boost production or ultimately identify additional sites toaccommodate the shortfall. The City should also consider incentives that encourage residents toagree to affordability covenants for their ADUs. With the City's aggressive approachtoADU production, the specific details of its ADU program as well as its robust and regular evaluation of ADU production are essential. No Net Loss Requirements The assumption for a RHNA Government Code section 65863 ensures that jurisdictions accommodate their RHNAthroughout the planning buffer has been increased period. To accomplish this, HCD recommends that a jurisdiction create a buffer in the housing element per Council directive. inventory of at least 15 to 30 percent more capacitythan required. The City Council's direction to reduce the buffer of sites in its inventory to 5% is alarming, especially considering the potential need for a citywide vote to rezone newly identified sites within 180 days of approval of any development that results in a shortfall in the City's site inventory. This is also problematic considering that nearly 50% of the City's RHNA is allocated to housing for households with very low and low incomes. Unless the City is donating land or providing significant 25 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Public Review Draft Comments Response to Comments funding toward affordable housing, it is unlikely that the market will support the development of housing complexes where 50% or more of the units are affordable to very -low- and low-income families. Further, the Cityis planning on the percentages of units affordable to low- and very -low-income households to be 45% in the airport area, 65% in West Newport Mesa, 30% in both Dover -Westcliff and Newport Center, 35% in Coyote Canyon, and 20 % in Banning Ranch. However, the Cityis planning on adopting an inclusionary zoning ordinance requiring only 15% of the units be affordable to very -low-, low-, and moderate -income. With the development of just a few of the housing element sites, the City may quickly run out of inventory to cover its RHNAwith only a 5% buffer. We encourage the Cityto reconsider its 5% buffer and adopt a buffer in line with staff's recommendation in Table B-1 on page SS3-4 of the Staff Report for the April 27 Study Session. Site Inventory Banning Ranch and Coyote Banning Ranch: We are concerned with the City's reliance on Banning Ranch as a suitable sitefor the Canyon are two of the six development of housing, including affordable housing, during the 6th Cycle.

We also agree with comments made during the Study Session that locating 100% affordable developments at the site raises environmentaIjustice concerns. Via Lido Plaza: We support the City's decision to include all sites in its inventory where property owners have affirmatively expressed interest in redeveloping their property for residential use and in being included in the site inventory, especially if a property owner has indicated a willingness to include affordable units in any 26 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Public Review Draft Comments Response to Comments development.

Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing AB 686 considerations have With HCD's release of its Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing: Guidance for All Public Entities and for Housing been included in Sections 3 Elements (April 2021 Update), we encourage the City to reviewthe HCD's Guidance and revise its analysis and and 4, as well as Appendix B programs as they relate to the duty to affirmatively further fair housing. While we address a few concerns of the Housing Element specifically, the Guidance is an exceptional resource that the City should thoroughly review and follow when revising its Draft Housing Element. We also encouragethe City to take advantage of HCD's AFFH Data and Mapping Resources to incorporate additional data into its analysis. Outreach and Key Stakeholders Outreach efforts through We encourage the City to ensure that its outreach includes a diverse group of organizations and individuals, the process have been particularlywith its assessment of fair housing and in its selection of sites and development of programs that transparent and seek to affirmatively further fair housing. Some key stakeholders the City should reach out to include: community- engage a diverse audience. based and other organizations that represent protected class members, public housing authorities, housing and A summaryof efforts is community development providers, lower income community members and households that include persons provided in Appendix C of in protected classes, fair housing agencies, independent living centers, regional centers, homeless services the Housing Element. agencies, churches and community service organizations that serve ethnic and linguistic minorities, etc.6 While we applaud the sometimes thankless and often tiresome work that the Housing Element Update Advisory Committee has committed to the Draft Housing Element over the last eight months, we are concerned that there has been a lack of diverse stakeholders included in the City's outreach efforts. Among the stakeholders listed above, the Cityshould make particular efforts to engage renters, members of protected classes, individuals that rely on affordable housing, and local workers, who may not be Newport Beach residents, but would choose to live closerto their employment if affordable housing were available. Additional Analysis AB 686 requirements have The City's "analysis must address patterns at a regional and local level and trends in been included in Section 4 patterns over time." The City is also "expected to use local data and knowledge to analyze local fair housing of the Housing Element. issues, including information obtained through community participation or consultation, such as narrative descriptions of people's lived experiences." Other relevant factors the Cityshould analyze include barriers in 27 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Public Review Draft Comments Response to Comments zoning and land use, such as "[p]redominance of single family uses and larger lot sizes in racially concentrated areas of affluence" or "[v]oter initiatives that restrict multifamily developments, rezoning to higher densities, height limits or similar measures that limit housing choices," etc. The Drafts hould also include an analysis of racially concentrated areas of affluence when analyzing patterns and trends of segregation and integration. Site Inventoryand AFFH AB 686 requirements have While we applaud the City's efforts to redistribute affordable housing throughout its focus areas and reduce been included and the concentration of affordable housing in the airport area, we are concerned that limiting affordable housing considered in Secitons 3 and to the focus areas still creates or exacerbates patterns of segregation. Even though the City as a whole is 4, as well asAppendix B of predominately White and affluent, especially when compared with the region and state, simplyviewing Figures the Housing Element. 3-7, 3-8, and 3-9 still demonstrates that the City is focusing its affordable housing in areas of the Citywith higher percentages of Hispanic/Latinx, Non -White, and Low/Moderate Income populations than may exist elsewhere in the City. When evaluating its Site Inventory, the City needs to "discuss how the sites are identified in a manner that better integrates the community," explain how the identified sites impact "existing patterns of segregation and number of units relative to the magnitude of the RH NA by income group," and evaluate "whetherthe RHNAby income group is concentrated in areas of the community." Goals, Policies, and Actions AB 686 requirements have As part of the AFFH component of the Draft Housing Element, the City needs to identify and prioritize been included in Sections 3 contributing factors to fair housing issues then identify goals, policies and a schedule of actions with specific and 4 of the Housing timelines, discrete steps, and measurable outcomes that will have a beneficial impact during the planning Element. period. "Goals and policies must be created with the intention to have a significant impact, well beyond a continuation of past actions, and to provide direction and guidance for meaningful action." The City's Policy Action 4A fails to meet the requirements of the necessary program to affirmatively further fair housing. Essentially, the City's program is to collaborate with other organizations and to review fair housing complaints simply to referthem to the appropriate government agency and to collaborate with other stakeholders to address potential constraints to fair housing, which may include analysis of barriers, review of historic policies, and "specific actions" that contribute to an inclusive community. First, the analysis of barriers to housing and a review of historic policies and restrictions that prevented protected classes from locating in Newport Beach should already have been done and included in the Housing Element as a part of the City's 28 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Public Review Draft Comments Response to Comments required analysis of Fair Housing. Essentially, the City has set a goal to do the analysis in the future that is should have already incorporated into its Draft Housing Element. And while the City states that it may take "specific actions," to foster inclusivity, there are no details about these "specific actions." "Programs in the element must have specific commitments to deliverables, measurable metrics or objectives, definitive deadlines, dates, or benchmarks for implementation. Deliverables should occur early in the planning period to ensure actual housing outcomes. For example, programs to 'explore' or 'consider' on an 'ongoing' basis are inadequate to demonstrate a beneficial impact in the planning period." The City's AFFH Policy Action is exactly what HCD has deemed to be inadequate. We encouragethe Cityto rework its fair housing analysis, identify barriers to fair housing, and develop specific programs and policy actions in line with HCD's guidanceto affirmatively further fair housing and actuallyachieve beneficial impacts during the planning period. Site Inventory Appendix B has been Based on the April 27, 2021 City Council Study Session, we understand that the City is taking additional time to revised to include a variety review and revise its Draft, including the Site Inventory to increasethe reliance on ADU production, which we of these considerations. interpret to mean a decrease in the list of sites identified or in the density of those sites. As we have requested before, when the Cityupdates its Site Inventory, we would appreciate receiving a copy for review. Some concerns that we have previously identified and encourage City Staff to consider when revising the Site Inventory include: • Ensurethat the Site Inventory correctly identifies whether a site was previously identified in the 5th Cycle; • Specifically identify the sites to be rezoned in any rezoning policy action; • Ensurethat the appropriate densities, orgreater, and appropriate percentages of affordability, or greater, are designated to sites in accordance with housing element laws; • Provide the required analysis for sites less than 0.5 acres or greaterthan 10 acres todemonstrate that sites of that size were successfully developed during the prior planning period; • Develop a policy action to identify City -owned nonvacant sites as surplus land, in accordance with the Surplus Land Act, during the planning period; and • Identify the current uses of nonvacant sites and how such uses do not constitute an impediment to additional residential development during the planning period. 29 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Public Review Draft Comments Response to Comments We continue to be encouraged by the City's diligent efforts to comply with state housing element laws and Comment noted. meaningfully contemplate the housing needs of its community and how to meet the needs. While we are concerned with some of the recent direction City Staff has received related to the Draft Housing Element, as described above, we await the City's thorough review and investigation of those matters to determine the realistic development potential during the planning period ofADUs and identified sites. We are also excited by the new HCD Guidance and Data and Mapping Resources to assist the Cityin complying with its duty to affirmatively further fair housing. We look forward to continuing to work withthe City through this process and if we can provide any additional assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us.

It looks like more and more of those hurdles arefalling and the threat is real. I STRONGLY oppose both the destruction of the tennis club and the building of condos. As to the former it's a longstanding recreational landmark and a very active, well -used club. As to the latter if we wanted to live somewhere dominated by condos and a bunch of cookie cutter housing developments with a horrible traffic flow we would move to Irvine. PLEASE stop the "development" that is ruining the character and individuality of Newport Beach. I understandthere is a mandate from the stateto identify areas for affordable housing but taking away one of the longest standing and supported recreational areas in a city that is exploding with condos and traffic cannot be the right answer. I wanted to takethis time to offer my opinion on the upcoming decisions facing you regarding site selections Comment noted. for the 2021-2029 Housing Element addressing future low/very low, moderate and above moderate income housing specifically involving APN:440-281-02... the Newport Beach Tennis Club. I am completely against including this property in the designated Cityof Newport Beach 2021-2029 Housing Element for the following reasons: 1. Traffic.... Not onlywill ingress and egress of the proposed development not likely be easilysolved but Eastbluff Drive will be severely overtaxed causing major traffic issues along with increased traffic accidents also resulting in increased danger to bicyclists who use this route. 2. Infrastructure....ln addition to impacting the roadways, the local shopping centerwill not be able to handle either the increased volume nor supply adequate parking. The Ralph's grocerystore is one of the smaller footprints in their chain and likely could in no way handle the increased volume from the additional dwelling units. This area truly is built out relative to the amenities it was designed for. 3. Recreation.....Adding more dwelling units in this neighborhood removes more acres of recreation this city cannot afford. We can only look at our country's increased obesity rate to understand reducing land devoted to recreation only contributes to this national emergency.... please don't add to this problem. 4. Tennis Community..... The only other tennis club in the city (Palisades Tennis Club) would be completely unable to absorb the 500+ members Newport Beach Tennis club has which would lead to citizens leaving the sport or flooding city courts well beyond their capacity. I urge you to NOT include APN: 440-281-02 in the City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 Housing Element and select a more suitable site. 32 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Public Review Draft Comments Response to Comments Asa homeowner with a property inclose proximity to Planning Site #145 -currently the Newport Beach Tennis Comment noted. Club - I would like to express my strong opinion that apartment development on this site is ill-considered. There has been copious apartment development in Newport Beach and surrounding cities over the past 5 years. Plenty of inventory has been added that strains an already overburdened traffic, amenity and educational infrastructure. Carpeting the neighborhoods of NB, Costa Mesa and Irvine with apartment dwellings will ultimately seriously undermine the quality of life that was the very reason most of us moved here in the first place. We do not want to create another West Los Angeles. Please remove Site #145 for the city's "Site Analysis List".

I have lived at for 46 years since 1975! Our house is DI RECTLYacross the street from the tennis club. My sons went to Lincoln and Corona del Mar schools and have grown up here. The possibility of having a 379 unit development across the street and in this area is abhorrent and difficult to envision. I have been active in various neighborhood and city affairs and have seen many changes in this area. I cannot believe the city is even considering the development of the building 379 units in this area! Along with thousands of others, I earnestly implore the planning committee to remove this property from the 2021-2019 Housing Element now, to prevent any housing accommodations to be considered now or in the future. If this property is to be razed there are other developments that could be considered. Something that would benefit the people who live in Newport Beach and this close-knit area. 33 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Public Review Draft Comments Response to Comments The thought of at least 600 plus more cars on East Bluff Drive, Jamboree, etc. along with other factors, is outside the realm of credibility and not worthy of any of you able to make this critically important decision. I, along with many others will follow this issue closely and do whatever we canto prevent it. 34 - :�� : ��-fie`:. •,��-' {,. 40, --AA ' . ►' ` VOL I ...... . . . . . . �i Lu- marTm I IL I City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Background and Purpose ADU Purpose Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) and Junior Accessory Dwelling Units (JADUs) are additional independent living facilities, for one or more persons, which are located on the same parcel as a single -unit or multi- unit residential dwelling. The concept of ADUs has existed for decades but has recently come to the forefront of the California housing discussion due to legislation passed starting in 2018. This legislation, discussed in more detail in the following section, makes it easier to develop ADUs by increasing the development zones where ADUs can be built, broadening the definition of an ADU, and removing previous restrictions such as requiring replacement parking. In areas such as Newport Beach where land values are high and there is a large amount of single -unit detached housing, ADUs present a potentially more naturally affordable housing option for renters. ADUs are often smaller in size than typical apartments or rental housing, ranging from 300 to 600 square feet in size. They are also attractive to property owners who can gain rental income. The City of Newport Beach (City) believes that ADUs present a viable option as part of the overall strategy to develop housing at all income levels during the 2021-2029 6th Cycle Housing Element planning period. Appendix D describes: • Recent ADU legislation and regional actions; • Local factors that may increase ADU development over the next eight years; and • Actions Newport Beach will take through housing programs to incentivizing ADU development. Background on Legislation and Statutory Requirements Currently in Newport Beach, ADUs and JADUs are primarily regulated through Section 20.48.200 (Accessory Dwelling Units) of Title 20 (Planning and Zoning) of the Newport Beach Municipal Code (NBMC). Within the Coastal Zone, ADUs and JADUs are primarily regulated through Section 21.48.200 (Accessory Dwelling Units) of Title 21 (Local Coastal Program Implementation Plan) of the NBMC. ADU legislation is addressed in Government Code Section 65852.150; it establishesthat ADUs are valuable and viable form of housing which can support the varying needs of California residents. In recent years, ADU legislation has been revised to increase opportunity and improved effectiveness in creating more housing in California. Recent changes in law have increased the feasibility and streamlined the ADU process to encourage development; below is a summary of recent legislation that has amended ADU law. ,B 1069 SB 1069 made legislative changes to address barriers to the development of ADUs and expanded capacity for ADU development. The bill reduces parking requirements per unit, restricts local agencies' ability to require ADU applicants to install new or separate utility connects or impose related fees, and requires local governments to ministerially approve applications for one ADU within single -unit residential so long as it meets specific requirements. Appendix D: Accessory Dwelling Units (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) D-1 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT AB 2299 AB 2299 requires local governments to ministerially approve ADUs if the proposed unit meets all parking requirements, maximum allowable size of an attached unit and specific setback requirements. Additionally, the bill states that any existing ADU ordinances do not meet the bill's requirements is null and void and that the jurisdiction must approve accessory dwelling units based on Government Code Section 65852.2 until the jurisdiction adopts a compliant ordinance. gganp AB 2406 creates more flexibility by authorizing local governments to permit junior accessory dwelling units (JADU) through an ordinance. The bill defines JADUs to be a unit that cannot exceed 500 square feet and must be completely contained within the space of an existing residential structure. In addition, the bill requires specified components for a local JADU ordinance. AB 3187 AB 1382 further addresses barriers to the development and use of ADUs and JADUs in local jurisdictions. The legislation streamlines approvals of ADU and JADUs using ministerial approval processes, including a requirement that complete applications for a compliant ADU/JADU which have not been acted upon within 60 days are deemed approved. ,Ab 68, AB 881, SB 13 AB 68, 881 and SB 13 prohibits a number development standards and design regulations a local government may impose in ADU/JADUs, decreased the allowable time for an ADU review and permitting process, reduces the allowable associated fees for ADUs and provided additional regulatory clarifications and guidelines pursuant to Government Code Sections 65852.2, 65852.22. Q IT` AB 587 permits an ADU to be sold or conveyed as a deed restricted affordable unit separately from the primary dwelling residence. Additional, regulations are outlined in Government Code Section 65852.26, including the provision that the primary and accessory unit must be built by a qualified nonprofit. AB 670 AB 670 states that all covenants or provisions that unreasonably restrict or prohibit the development of ADU/JADUs on a lot zoned for single -unit residential use is void and unenforceable. AB 671 AB 671 requires jurisdictions to include a plan and programs in the Housing Element which incentivizes and promotes the development of ADUs for very low, low- and moderate -income households. HCD/SCAG Policies and Programs In August 2020, the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) and the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) completed an analysis of accessory dwelling unit affordability to establish approved assumptions for use in the sites analysis for the 2021-2029 Housing Element Cycle. The analysis surveyed rents for ADUs through different online real estate platforms between April and June 2020 and focused on specific geographic regions to determine differences in Appendix D: Accessory Dwelling Units (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) D-2 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT affordability. The final affordability assumptions resulting from SCAG and HCD's analysis for jurisdictions within Orange County are as follows:' • Extremely Low — 15.0% • Very Low —10.0% • Low — 43.0 • Moderate — 30.0% • Above Moderate — 2.0% The City of Newport Beach applied the above approved affordability breakdown to the anticipated ADU development within the 6th Cycle planning period. Opportunities for ADUs in Newport Beach Influences Supporting Affordable Housing in Newport Beach Opportunities to develop affordable housing on vacant land in the City are extremely limited with only three parcels qualifying based on the SCAG Housing Element Parcel Tool (HELPR) (see Figure 1). The City, however, has substantial opportunity to develop affordable housing through ADUs based on the following key factors: • High land values in the City incentivize ADU development - Because of the high land values in Newport Beach and the propensity to have viable, financially performing properties, infill opportunities on existing residential sites via ADU development represents the greatest opportunity for affordable housing construction and to integrate such development within established neighborhoods. According to SCAG's HELPR, there are numerous parcels that could qualify for by -right detached ADUs, with little to no restrictions. In addition, every single -unit in the City has the potential to convert existing space, including garage area, into an ADU or JADU by -right, resulting in approximately 19,000 eligible properties (see Figure D-2). Therefore, the City contends this provides the most significant opportunity to generate affordable housing in the community. • Site availability for ADUs is significant - Almost 8,000 existing parcels have the physical space to accommodate detached ADUs and provide for ample opportunity to add to the housing stock. Whereas the City may lose economic potential, jobs and tax base with infill redevelopment of existing commercial uses, encouraging ADU development on existing residential properties does not deteriorate economic, job and tax base considerations. Rather, it will likely enhance availability of diverse housing opportunities, promote economic stability and further the City's tax base. • Positive Historical Trends in ADU Development - The City's history of ADU/JADU development within multifamily developments demonstrates opportunity to develop attached ADUs as an affordable component of larger housing projects. These positive trends are directly correlated with the City's current efforts to provide supportive policies, outreach and information dissemination to its residents. The City has experienced year over year increase in ADU activity 1 SCAG Regional Accessory Dwelling Unit Affordability Analysis, 2020 Appendix D: Accessory Dwelling Units (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) D-3 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT in the City and will continue to see these trends increase and exponentially expand throughout the 2021-2029 planning period through intensified public outreach and development incentives. • Demonstrated Commitment to ADU Development through Policies/Programs—The City Council has recently adopted policies that support ADU development and has developed an ADU Ordinance that strongly encourages ADU development. In addition, that City will adopt additional ADU policies the further support ADU development citywide. Providing strong support through policies, community outreach and monitoring of ADU construction. • Council Policy K-4 (Reducing the Barriers to the Creation of Housing) — On March 9, 2021, the City Council adopted Council Policy K-4, which includes a stated goal of increasing the production of ADUs and JADUs. The policy recognizes that further encouraging development of ADUs beyond State law minimums is an important strategy to accommodate future growth. To further encourage and incentive the development of ADUs, the policy set forth the following directives: 1. Interpret ambiguities in code provisions regulating ADUs in a manner that accommodates and maximizes production. 2. Direct staff and the Planning Commission to review and recommend code changes that reduce regulatory barriers, streamline the approval process, and expand potential capacity of ADUs beyond minimum State law requirements 3. Publicize incentives for construction of ADUs with a systematic approach utilizing all forms of media and outreach. 4. Prepare and maintain a user-friendly website committed to information related to codes, processes, and incentives pertaining to the development of ADUs and JADUs in the City. 5. Develop and administer a program that includes waiving all permit and City fees for property owners of unpermitted units when they agree to bring units into compliance with current building and fire codes to ensure the safety of occupants and structures. 6. Develop permit -ready standard plans to permit new ADU construction to minimize design costs, expedite permit processing, and provide development certainty for property owners. • Temporary 2 -Year Fee Waiver Program for ADU and JADU Development — On April 27, 2021, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2021-37 waiving City building plan check, building construction permit, and other related City fees required for plan check, permits, inspections, re - inspections and other related activities, for the design and construction of ADUs and JADUs on existing residential developments and the legalization of exiting unpermitted ADUs and JADUs.

Table D-1 shows the City's number of ADUs that were issued building permits (permitted) since 2018. Initial interest in development of ADUs in the City, like other cities in the State, was slow due lack of public awareness of the new opportunities and complexity of the laws. Additionally, the City's initial ADU regulations adopted in 2018 were intended to comply with State law be as restrictive as possible. However, in 2019, the City amended its ADU regulations to comply with updates in State law but also included additional design flexibility for ADUs and adopted incentives. Due in large part to increased education of property owners, City Council support of ADU development, and additional local policies promoting the development of ADUs, the City of Newport Beach is experiencing exponential growth in ADU interest and development. The largest increase came in 2021 when the City issued building permits for 40 ADUs with an additional 29 ADU permits pending. This represents a 1325% increase in total permits issued from 2018 through 2021.

Table D-2 below illustrates the number of ADUs permitted from 2018-2020 in the various council of governments within the Southern California Council of Governments region. The data is based on HCD Annual Progress Report (APR) analysis and only includes data from the available reported years of 2018-2020. Similar to what is being experienced in Newport Beach, it is anticipated that Appendix D: Accessory Dwelling Units (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) D-7 WON City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT reported ADU permits for 2021 will have exponentially grown due to the increased public awareness and outreach efforts of the various jurisdictions.

Table D-3: 2021-2029 ADU Annual Average Appendix D: Accessory Dwelling Units (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) D-8 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Year Conservative Approach 2018 - 2021 Prorated Annual Average 19 Annual Average x 1.5 30 (rounded) Planning Period Total 240 Table D-3 shows the City's ADU assumptions as described in Appendix B of the Housing Element. As noted, the City anticipates that growth in ADU development will continue to occur year over year; however, the City is assuming a conservative approach by anticipating a growth factor of approximately 1.5 times the past four-year average of 19 ADUs (approximately 30 ADUs per year anticipated), resulting in a total anticipated production of 240 ADUs for the 2021-2029 Planning Period. A 1.5 factor for growth is reasonable given the development trends illustrated in Tables D-1 and D-3, extensive local policy emphasis on ADU development, and proposed housing programs described in Section 4. In addition, the City is committed to enhanced monitoring to ensure actual production is on pace with projections. The City of Newport Beach is well positioned, both from an availability of potential development areas within existing single -unit neighborhoods and from a political will standpoint, to realize a large increase in ADU development significantly exceeding the conservative estimate of 240 ADUs during the 2021-2029 planning period. Housing Element Policy Framework The City of Newport Beach has identified programs to maintain and encourage ADUs during the 2021- 2029 planning period. The matrix below identified existing policies contain in Section 4 of this document as well as policies the City will review for feasibility to implement in order to increase affordable housing. Table D-3: ADU/JADU Policies and Policy Considerations ADU Policy Type/Name Description Consideration Housing Element Policies Policy Action 1H: Accessory Support and encourage Explore feasibility of incentives for ADUs, including Dwelling Unit Construction the development of developing educational campaigns and minimizing ADUs in Newport Beach development costs through permit ready plans.

ADU/JADU Subsidy Program Subsidy incentives to Provide grants or low interest loans to interested construct ADUs property owners in exchange for deed restricted ADU/JADUs. Production/Incentives Incentives to create long Granting fee waivers, additional development term affordability of standards waivers, or square footage bonuses in ADU/JADU exchange for affordability covenants. ADU and JADU Incentive Various development • Fee Waiver/Deferral Programs standards and • Over the Counter Approvals entitlement streamlining • ADU One Stop Permit actions • Subsidies for Affordability Summary of Newport Beach ADU Approach Anticipated ADU Growth (Planning Period 2021-2029) Newport Beach anticipates that the City will continue to see year after year growth in ADU development which matches or exceeds the growth in ADU activity shown from 2019 to 2020. The City has over 21,000 single -unit dwelling units, all of which are eligible to develop one ADU and one JADU. Additionally, multi- unit apartment complexes can also develop ADUs if the requirements of State law and the City's local ordinances are met. While the City anticipates hundreds of ADUs to be developed within the 2021-2029 planning period based on increased production of ADUs year over year as demonstrated in Table D-2, for the purposes of the Housing Element, the City is conservatively estimating 240 ADUs. In accordance with HCD/SCAG guidance on affordability assumptions within the Housing Element Update process, the City anticipates that 151 of these units will be affordable to residents within the very low and low-income categories, 84 will be affordable to residents within the moderate income category, and 48 will be affordable to residents within the above moderate -income category. Supportive Policies and Programs Newport Beach has proposed programs within the 2021-2029 Housing Element to take meaningful steps towards promoting and incentivizing ADU growth during the planning period. The City will explore incentives beyond what has been established to date, including the potential for permit -ready plans or a streamlined process if certain requirements are met. Table D-3 outlines a list of further ADU incentives that the City may explore during implementation of Policy Action 1H. The City also plans to continue its ADU amnesty program to bring existing non -conforming accessory units up to code so that the City can realize RHNA credit for these existing housing units within the community. Appendix D: Accessory Dwelling Units (DRAFT JANUARY 2022) D-10 City of Newport Beach 2021-2029 HOUSING ELEMENT Monitoring Requirements The City of Newport Beach is required to report all development within the City, including ADU development, to the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) annually through their Annual Progress Reports (APRs). As part of this reporting, the City must show adequate progress in meeting their identified ADU growth assumptions as described above. To address HCD's ADU monitoring and reporting requirements, the City has included Program 11 within the Housing Plan (Section 4). This states that the City will conduct an assessment of ADU growth within two years of adoption of the Housing Element. If ADU assumptions are not keeping pace with the assumptions made within the Housing Element, the City will implement fall back actions to accommodate the shortfall, if necessary.
