SLAG MANDATES 4,845* NEW DWELLINGS
TO SATISFY RHNA IN NEWPORT BEACH.
AND THOUSANDS MORE DWELLINGS FOR OTHER ORANGE COUNTY COASTAL
CORRIDOR CITIES.
Southern California Association of Governments' (SHAG) revised its 6th Regional
Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA ... pronounced Reehna) allocation
methodology and mandated that Newport Beach initially plan for 4,832 more
dwelling units by 2021. And Newport Beach's General Plan Housing and
Circulation Elements will need to be updated to formally reflect this change.
*SCAG recently updated the requirement to 4,845 residential dwellings for
Newport Beach. In order to achieve the required number of affordable units in
that allocation, City staff estimates that more than 9,000 units in total will need
to be built.

"Their misguided calls for 15.,000 to 20,000 additional housing
units
to be built in our city.
That's far
more than the 4,845
units
required
by
the state's
housing
agency!"
