One path leads to economic recovery, a rebound in housing production and renewed public confidence. The other path puts the nation back on the same old merry-go-round of slow growth, volatile interest rates, record high unemployment, unacceptable budget deficits and political and social unrest. The odds for recovery improved in October 1982, when the Federal Reserve Board shifted gears and gave the economy room to expand. As the FED eased its foot on the monetary brakes, the marketplace showed a spark of life. Interest rates declined; Wall Street rallied; home sales and new construction picked up; and demand for shelter showed signs of breaking loose after being bottled up for more than three years. However, many critical problems remain unsolved that could delay, interrupt or even abort the anticipated recovery. The recession of 1979-82 has cut deeper into the economic and social fabric of this nation than any since the Great Depression. More than 12 million Americans , including some 1. 2 million .rin the construction industry, remain unemployed and business bankruptcies ;are still running near peak levels. While interest rates have declined, the" real cost of money remains six percentage points above the rate• of inflation. The rate of home sales and new construction -- though improved from a year earlier -- are still -far below levels required to meet the shelter needs of this country. Moreover, the 1983 outlook is clouded by continuing runaway federal deficits that threaten to break the $200 billion mark for the foreseeable future. Meanwhile, the mortgage finance system -- once the cornerstone of America's housing policy -- is still lianging in limbo after being rocked by shifting government priorities, bank deregulation, intense competition for savings and years of inflation and unpredictable interest rates. -This nation and this industry face a unique challenge at this turning r. point in American history. That challenge is to mount another housing-led economic expansion without reigniting runaway inflation. Meeting this challenge will require a delicate balance of fiscal and monetary policies. It will require bold, nonpartisan action and a spirit of cooperation and common purpose on the part of President Reagan, the United States Congress and the Federal Reserve Board. And it will require a renewed commitment to the goal of providing decent, affordable shelter for all Americans -- a goal first mandated by Congress in 1949 and reaffirmed since then by every Congress and every Administration. p • -2- Economic Policies During the past two years, the economy has been seriously shaken by an explosive combination of fiscal, tax and monetary policies that are not only incompatible, but in direct conflict with one another -- creating a tug-and-pull in the marketplace. The most obvious was the Administration's attempt to rev up the economy with expansionary fiscal and tax policies -- the $1.6 trillion build-up in the national defense and a $750 billion tax cut. Simultaneously, the Federal Reserve Board was slowing the economy by reducing the nation's credit supply. This combination of policies sent interest rates and budget deficits soaring and deepened and prolonged the national recession. By mid-1982 it became apparent that some mid-course policy corrections were needed to steer the economy away from the edge of the cliff. The Congress and the Administration subsequently adopted a major revenue-raising bill and a few months later, in October 1982, the Federal Reserve abandoned its doctri- naire experiment in monetarism. This shift in policies was followed by a free-fall in interest rates, a major rally on Wall Street and the modest begin- nings of a recovery in the housing market. To maintain and to add to this momentum, some additUnal changes in policy will be required in 1983. Reduce federal deficits. First and foremost on the agenda is the problem of skyrocketing federal deficits. The deficit for the fiscal year ending September 1982 reached a record $113 billion, more than twice the size of the Administration's original estimate. �The federal deficit for the current fiscal year as well as fiscal years 1984 and 1985 could top $200 billion under current spending and tax proposals. Deficits of that size could open the door to another serious credit crunch down the road -- a development that would send interest rates soaring again and.-weaken, if .not destroy, the recovery. This deficit crisis must be avoided:'. To reduce projected budget deficits , the Administration and the Congress must tackle the "big-ticket" items that heretofore have been ruled off-limits from the budget-cutting process. This would include scaling back on defense spending and containing the soaring costs of entitlement programs that, along with interest payments on the national debt, now account for 70 percent of the entire federal budget. Lower interest rates. As the economy catches its breath following three years of record high interest rates and tight money, it is vitally important that the Federal Reserve Board pursue a monetary policy that would permit a further decline in interest rates , giving both consumers and business access to affordable credit so desperately needed to turn the economy around. Any return to the monetarist policies of the past would choke off the economic recovery. Create new jobs. Each one percentage point decline in the national unemployment rate cuts the federal deficit by an estimated $30 billion. The Administration and the Congress must pursue policies that will generate growth, bolster public confidence, put Americans back to work and help put the building industry back on its feet. A housing-led economic recovery is, by far, the best and most effective way to reduce the soaring deficit. • -3- • Housings contribution would be significant. An additional 400,000 housing starts -- the difference between the 1 million units started in 1982 and the 1.4 million starts forecast for 1983 -- would create 700,000 new jobs, $13 billion in wages and $6 billion in additional tax revenue for local, state and federal governments. Revitalize the Housing Partnership Between the end of World War II and the .,beginning of 1983, entrepre- neurs built more than 56 million homes and apartment units, and rehabili- tated and restored millions more. America was transformed from a nation of poorly housed people into a nation of well housed property owners. These great achievements didn't come easily. There were intermittent interruptions in the nation's housing delivery system. But this nation never lost sight of its ultimate goal to provide decent housing for all Americans. As the housing market grew and matured throughout the post-war period, a strong working partnership developed among the private building industry, the financial marketplace and government at all levels. Housing was ranked as a top national priority. It enjoyed strong bipartisan support as the nation's electWd leaders recognized the economic, social and politi- cal benefits of a well housed nation. What was good for housing was accepted as being good for the country. In the past, the federal government's role in the housing market has been focused in two primary areas. -First, the government provided direct and indirect assistance to the poor, the elderly and disabled, who were unable to compete for housing in the private marketplace. Secondly, the government helped shape a financial system that gave home buyers access to long-term credit at affordable rates. For example, the government chartered specialized mortgage lending institutions, igsured mortgage loans against default, created a sophisticated secondary mortgage market and permitted taxpayers to deduct mortgage interest and property taxes. , That partnership, unfortunately, has been badly shaken recently by changes in the economy and shifting government priorities at a time when the need for affordable housing is at an all-time record level. The time has come for this nation's elected leaders to reaffirm their commitment to housing. By taking the best from the past and building on it, a dynamic partnership between government and private industry can be revita- lized to make housing a top national priority again and to provide decent housing in a suitable living environment for every American family. Strengthen the Mortgage Finance System A long-term, national strategy needs to be developed to strengthen and stabilize the nation's mortgage finance system, focusing on ways to reesta- blish housing's priority in the financial marketplace and to provide home buyers with access to mortgage money at rates and terms they can afford. This nation must eliminate the myth that America is overhoused and that too much credit has flowed into housing investment. That notion -- occasion- ally expressed by the President's top economic advisors - ignores common sense. -4— Providing favorable credit and tax treatment for housing is a policy worth preserving. This policy has been good for the American people and good for the economy. It has paid off in rich dividends, opening the doors to home ownership for millions of Americans and giving the average working man a stake and a sense of pride in this democratic society. The fiercely competi— tive housing system that emerged became a driving force behind the economic progress of the last four decades, providing jobs for millions and generating demand for goods and services throughout the economy. To strengthen the mortgage finance system, immediate consideration should be given to the following programs and policies: ° Creation of a tax credit for all investors in residential mortgages, one of the most significant recommendations made by the President's Commission on Housing. ° Creation of tax—exempt Individual Housing Accounts -- another Presi— dential Commission recommendation -- as a way to encourage young Americans to save for a down—paym_ant on a home. r>_ ° Adoption of legislative and regulatory reforms that would remove the obstacles preventing pension funds from investing in residential mortgages, also a recommendation proposed by the President's Commission on Housing. ° Elimination of sunset provisions for tax exempt revenue bonds, thus permitting the issuance of state and local tax—exempt mortgage revenue bonds after 1983. ° Development of new multifamily financing vehicles, including a rental housing production program and methods for refinancing balloon mort— gages on rental property. ° Expansion of efforts to strengthen existing primary and secondary mortgage market mechanisms, including FHA/VA programs, GNMA, FNMA, and FHLMC, and support of legislative and regulatory proposals to expand the role of private mortgage—backed securities. ° Support and. encourage private innovative financing concepts, such as NAHB's Home Mortgage Access Corporation, to give home builders direct access to the secondary market. ° Oppose any further direct involvement of financial institutions and their subsidiary corporations in the land development and building businesses. r -5- • • Regulatory Reform for Affordable Housing The fastest growing segment of the nation's housing market is made up of millions of young, first-time home buyers, nearing or in their 30s, who are in need of "affordable" housing. Builders have responded to this strong demand for starter homes by shifting to the development of smaller units, built on less land, with higher densities, modern layouts and ame- nities and innovative, energy-conserving features. Some communities have moved much faster than others in taking positive steps to enable the building industry to meet the challenge of providing affordable housing. At a time when local governments should be looking for ways to encourage greater efficiencies in the production and delivery of new homes, some have stood adamantly behind rules and regulations that were written long ago, have since become outmoded, and are today a major impedi- ment to the construction of affordable housing. The issues of government overregulation of the housing industry are numerous and complex. In some areas, overregulation occurs in the form of excessive building fees that are actually an attempt of local governments, confronted by overburdened taxpayers, to balance their budgetsfon the backs of new home buyers just coming into the community. Sometimes , restrictive zoning regulations are imposed to fence out new growth. Elaborate and need- lessly prolonged procedures for obtaining permits may be the result of under- staffed building inspection offices. And many times, overregulation is simply the product of a lumbering bureaucracy that, once set in motion, never stops to consider the relevance of various inefficient codes to safety, health and the public good. Whatever the cause, overregulation adds thousands of dollars to the cost of building housing and is therefore arr- excess this nation can no longer tolerate or afford. " To bring about regulatory reform 'of the housing industry, federal, state and local governments, with the support and cooperation of private industry and NAHB, should move quickly and forcefully to implement the major recommen- dations of the President's Commission on Housing. Specific recommendations on regulatory reform that deserve immediate attention are: ° Requiring federal agencies to prove the need for new regulatory actions through cost/benefit analysis and housing impact studies; ° Repealing zoning regulations that deny or unreasonably limit develop- ment of all types of housing; r ° Updating density requirements so that they do not interfere with market forces; Promoting infrastructure development financed from general governmen- tal revenues and in such a way that it does not unduly burden the housing consumer; ° Reducing fees and dedication requirements that exceed the actual costs involved in building new developments in the community; i -6- t ° Streamlining the permit process to enable builders to break ground on their projects in as timely a manner as possible; ° Repealing rent control ordinances that lead to housing shortages and ultimately hurt the very people they are intended to help. ° Designing innovative and equitable programs at all levels of govern- ment to meet the housing needs of Americans unable to compete in the free marketplace, without imposing mandatory inclusionary zoning ordinances. Housing: Shelter for the People, Jobs for the Economy A strong, competitive building industry is vital to the national economy. The industry provides shelter for the American people and jobs for the economy -- both of which are desperately needed during this period of near Depression-level unemployment and record demand for affordable housing. The significance of a healthy housing industry goes far beyond providing shelter and jobs. ,The opportunity for Americans from all walks of life to work hard and to live in decent, affordable shelter, is the glue that holds together this free and democratic society. It gives Americans the drive and incentive to excel in their individual endeavors, to climb the ladder of success and to improve their standard of living. Equally important, it gives them a sense of self esteem and independence as well as a sense of pride and involvement in their local community. Awesome challenges confront America in 1983. Seven times since 1946 the building industry has led the nation from recession to recovery. Now is the time for the Congress, the Administration, the Federal Reserve Board and private enterprise to work together for polities that will lead to lower interest rates, lower federal deficits, lower unemployment and provide decent, affordable housing for all Americans., k Joint Executive/Resolutions Committee Action: Recommends Approval Resolutions Committee Action: Recommends Approval Nq r A�VANCE PLANNING DIqVON o w w s J .Z. coy u INITIALS Bob Lenard Pat Temple Craig Bluell x•, Sandy Genis Nancy Alvidrez Tracy Williams Comments C+✓�t rvr✓1A Ire � + - - • Qom' - tL /�,�- � � � /Y�t�� , -- -_ ,-- � — � nA J r 0E727 ------ ---- -�---_.-_.: !`�, ,fir r. .�' , .-r�-A•�-L-�^�--�-�--------- ---- - - r f C _4-2AM rt �t� 4 i -- -- AV i tf i r , �EWPp�T 0 0.

The proposed project consists of two parcels. Applicants have indi- cated that construction will probably be undertaken in two major phases, with Parcel 1 to be developed first. If, for some reason, Parcel 2 cannot be developed, minor modifications to the central driveway will allow Parcel 1 to stand on its own with regard to compliance with development standards. a. Each parcel will contain four major buildings. Applicants have indicated an intent to construct these buildings sequentially - completing one prior to commencing the next. As all existing buildings will be demolished prior to initiation of construction on each parcel, a major concern expressed with regard to other recent requests for phased developments will not exist -- that of a mixture of old and new development on the same parcel. If occu- pancy of any building is to be sought prior to completion of all construction on either parcel, provisions must be made to ensure compliance with all development standards (including parking, open space, etc. ) for all buildings occupied. In this way, the worst consequence to the City, in the event the project could not be completed, would be a smaller development than originally antici- pated, but there would be no deficiency in amenities or Code com- pliance and no mixture of old and new development. 2. Density Parcel 1: 581 units - 40.66 units/acre Parcel 2: 574 units - 41.68 units/acre Total: 11155 units - 41.16 units/acre 3. Unit Types Nine unit plans are proposed for the project. They consist of bachelor, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom units. (Units with one bedroom plus den are included as two-bedroom units. Because of the design of the den in the two-bedroom plus den unit, it has not been counted as a third bedroom. Breakdown by unit type is as follows: Parcel 1 Parcel 2 Total Bachelor (437 sq. ft. ) 104 128 232 one bedroom (8301rl6O sq. ft. ) 151 228 379 Two bedroom (11216-1,520 sq. ft. 326 218 544 4.

Major vehicular access to the site is provided at three locations: one each on Adams Avenue, Pinecreek Drive, and Village Way. The Adams Avenue and Village Way entries are restricted to residents only. A fourth entry point, located on Village Way, provides access only to the parking garage below the building at the north- east corner of the site. b. Cn-site circulation is provided by a through driveway with access to all three adjacent streets. Surface level parking is also pro-- vided along this driveway. 6. Planned Development Standards (Costa Mesa Municipal Code Sec. 13-252) a. Allowable density in the PDR-UC zone ranges from 30.1- to 50-units per acre. Projects are permitted to exceed the lowest density to the extent they meet certain criteria set forth in the Crdinance and summarized below. Criteria Met (1) preserves natural features that enhance the N.A. development and will benefit the community (includes historic buildings). (Criteria deemed not applicable as historic buildings (warehouses) would not enhance the development and are of marginal benefit to the community. ) (2) provides law- and moderate-income housing Yes (Information provided in the Draft EIR indi- cates that 51% of the units will be afford- able to households earning up to 120% of the median income for the county; 19% of the units will be affordable to households earning up to 80% of the median. ) (3) distinctive design Yes (Zhe project is unique for Costa Mesa in terms of its concept, site plan, and architectural design) (4) all or part of required parking within structure. Yes (88% of the parking provided is subterranean) (5) recreational vehicle storage No (6) open space in excess of requirement Yes (42% required, 56% provided) (7) separation of pedestrian, bicycle, Yes vehicular circulation. (Pedestrian circulation is independent of vehicular circulation) (8) perimeter open space in excess of requirement. Yes (25 ft. required, 25-30 ft. minimum provided, with large areas in excess of 30 ft.) (9) within 1/4 mile of public transit route. Yes (CCTD bus routes on Adams and Harbor) (10) use of non-depletable energy sources. No (proposed in EIR as mitigation measures, but not yet incorporated into project proposal) b. The proposed project meets seven of the nine applicable criteria. In Staff's opinion, this supports the request for a density falling just above the mid-point of the allowable range. • Ag No. ZE_09, T 115— 1— ,�00 -4- Segerstrom/Cst. College/Langslet IZ.

The Condominium Ordinance (Section 13-828(d)) specifies that struc- tures "shall avoid the long-row effect by being composed of not more than six (6) dwelling units" .side-by-side and by providing a four- foot offset in the front building line for every two units. The same sections provide that "alternative designs which acoomplish the same purpose may be approved by the Planning Commission." a. Although one side each of four buildings and two sides of a fifth building will contain more than six units side-by-side, differences in building height, offset elevations, and balconies will combine to reduce the "long-row" effect. Additional mitigation will be provided by the proposed landscape theme. 8. The landscape theme involves an extensive system of lakes and streams. Recreational facilities include three tennis courts, three racquetball courts, two recreation buildings, and four pools and spas. No specific provisions are made for children. Although the nature and design of the development are such that a large number of children is not anticipated, it can be expected that some will reside in the project. C. Parking Variance 1. The requested variance from parking requirements is based on the theory that smaller units will generate smaller parking demands. The following table gives a comparison between the proposed and required parking ratios and includes a reference to the apartment parking requirements for comparison purposes. Unit Size Req. Pkg. (Condos) Req. Pkg. (Apts. ) Proposed Parkin ch g Baelor 2.5/unit = 580 1.6/unit = 371 1.5/unit = 348 One bedroom 2.5/unit = 948 1.9/unit = 720 2.0/unit = 758 Two bedroom ' 2.5/unit = 1,360 2.1/unit = 1,142 2.5/unit = 1,360 TOTAL: 'I$$$ T'E3'3 2� 2. A similar request was recently granted for a 244-unit condominium devel- opment at the southeast corner of Fairview Road and South Coast Drive. In that case (ZE-80-168), the approved parking ratios were: bachelor - 1.6, one bedroom - 2.0, two bedroom - 2.5 spaces per unit. 3. A recently completed parking survey conducted by the City indicates that, for projects in excess of 90 units, automobile ownership rates for apartments and condominiums with two-bedroom units and smaller average 1.6 and 1.8 vehicles per unit, respectively. It is especially unlikely that bachelor units will generate a vehicle ownership rate greater than one per unit. 4. Code requires that two covered parking spaces be provided for the tenants of each unit, and that one-half space per unit be provided for guest parking. The results of the parking survey indicate that existing apartment and condominium developments experience a signifi- cantly greater shortage of guest parking than resident parking. This could be the result of a number of factors. However, the single factor most often cited by respondents to the survey was the use of garages for storage, requiring residents to park in open spaces designated for guests. As the proposed development utilizes large subterranean parking garages rather than individual, closable garages, the possibility of resident parking spaces being utilized for purposes other than parking is greatly reduced, if not entirely eliminated. a No. ' • y -091 T11501, T-11700 -5- Segerstrom/Cst. College/langslet II. REQUEST AND ANALYSIS (Cont. ) 5. Code requires that two spaces be set aside for the residents of each unit. The applicants propose to reserve one space per unit, with remaining parking, both subterranean and surface, to be used on a first-come, first-served basis by both residents and guests. This technique should result in greater efficiency of parking use as it will eliminate the possibility of two spaces being reserved for a unit whose residents own only one vehicle. Assignment of parking spaces will take into account proximity to elevators and stairways leading to the associated dwelling units. D. Variance from Private Open Space Requirement 1. The Condominium Ordinance requires that "an adjoining private patio shall be provided for each unit with no dimension less than ten (10) feet." The result is a minimum private patio area of 100 sq. ft. Of the nine unit types proposed in the subject project, only one unit meets this requirement. The remaining units provide decks ranging from 4 to 8 ft. in one direction and from 10 to 25 ft. in the other direction. Areas of individual decks range from 42 sq. ft. to 190 sq. ft. ; however, many units are provided with more than one deck. As a result, eight of the nine unit types provide total deck area in excess of 100 sq. ft. Only unit type 3, of which there are 32 within the entire project, provides a deck area of 69 sq. ft. 2. The Planned Development Ordinance (Section 13-252(4)(a)) also contains a requirement that each unit be provided with a private open space with no dimension less than 10 ft. However, this section contains an exemption for "multiple-story apartments or condominiums where dwelling units have no ground floor access," in which case, no private open space is required. 3. The private open space requirements of the Condominium Ordinance were adopted in August 1977; similar requirements in the Planned Development Ordinance were adopted in December 1978. In cases of apparent conflict between two sections of the Ordinance, it is standard practice to cite the most recently adopted section as most accurately reflecting the current intent with regard to a particular issue. In this case, as the exemption for multiple-story developments is the most recently adopted section, and as it is impractical to provide 101 x 10' patios for all units in such a development, Staff suggests that the proposed decks ade- quately fulfill the intent of the Code in providing private open space. E. Tentative Maps of Tracts 11501 and 11700 1. Tract 11501 is a 4-lot subdivision of the northerly portion of the development (Parcel 1). 2. Tract 11700 is a 4-lot subdivision of the southerly portion of the project (Parcel 2). 3. Each of the eight proposed lots enompasses one condominium building and surrounding parking and open space.

Environmental The Draft Environmental Impact Report prepared for the subject project anticipates impacts in the area of traffic, air quality, hydrology, popu- lation, noise, community services, and energy and utilities. Traffic impacts will be the result of a project generation of 9,240 daily vehicle trips. Several mitigation measures are proposed to reduce the impact of these trips on the local traffic circulation system. Air quality and noise -impacts of the project are primarily a result of traffic generation. Noise impacts will also be experienced by residents of the project as a result of existing and future traffic on the adjacent street system. Construction on the site, which is now largely unpaved, will increase the amount of runoff from the site. This should not, however, overtax the ability of storm drain systems to dispose of this additional contribution. Population impacts will consist of an estimated project population of 1,863 persons, an overall increase in the City population of 2.2 percent. Adverse impacts on housing are not anticipated as the project is a resi- dential development and as many units are anticipated to be affordable to low- and soderate-inane families. Noise impacts, as a result of project-generated traffic, are not anticipated to be significant. An increase of 2.9 CNEL is anticipated for the exist- ing apartments on the east side of Pinecreek Drive. This will not, however, result in an exterior noise environment in excess of 65 CNEL, the standard for residential areas. Design and construction of the proposed condominiums will need to include mitigation of existing and projected traffic noise, especially along Adams Avenue. Impacts on community services are limited primarily to fire and police protection. Several details of design and operation of the project must be worked out with these agencies prior to issuance of building permits. It is not anticipated that these will result in any significant change in the nature and design of the project. Although adequate utilities exist or can be provided to serve the proposed project, the EIR recommends maximum attention to conservation measures in designing energy and water systems. Mitigation measures proposed in the EIR are included in the attached list of conditions. III. PLANNING STAFF FINDINGS A. If General Plan Amendment GP-82-IA is approved, the proposed project and tract maps will be consistent with the General Plan Land Use Element and with policies encouraging provision of varied types of housing, provision of affordable "housing, and concentration of high density housing in areas located near major transportation routes and shopping and employment centers. B. The proposed project substantially canplies with all development standards of the Condominium ordinance and PDR-UC zone. Ag a No. ZE 09, T 11501, T 11700 -7- Seg tram/Cst. College/langslet III. PLANNING STAFF FINDINGS (Cont. ) C. The proposed project meets sufficient criteria, as set forth in the Planned Development Ordinance, to warrant the requested density. 0, Requested variance from parking requirements represents a reasonable adjust- ment consistent with automobile ownership rates anticipated for the types of units being proposed. Impacts of the parking variance will be further mitigated by the proposed method of parking assignment. E. The proposed provision of private open space (balconies) is consistent with the intent of Code as expressed in the most recently adopted section rele- vant to this issue. F. The evidence presented substantially meets the conditions set forth in Costa Mesa Municipal Code Section 13-347. G. With the incorporation of proposed mitigations measures, the project will not have a significant adverse effect on the environment. IV. FIRE DEPARTMENT FINDINGS A. The proposed buildings are at an excessive distance from the street neces- sitating fire apparatus access and provisions of on-site fire hydrants. B. The plans submitted show exterior building walls over 300 feet from road- ways and questionable access via walkways. C. Fire protection concerns which must be resolved include the following: 1. Fire apparatus in many cases can only be positioned on one side of the buildings and exposures cannot be properly protected. 2. Portable ground ladders cannot be transported on the walkways as shown and cannot be utilized in the proposed landscaping thus hampering rescue operations. V.

BACKGROUND Rezone Petition R-82-01 is one of four related applications being processed concurrently for the subject properties. The three other applications include General Plan Amendment GP-82-lA (requesting permission to amend the land Use designations from High Density Residential and General Commercial to Urban Center Residential), Tentative Tract Maps 11501 and 11700 (creating four lots on each parcel), and Zone Exception Permit ZE-82-09 (a Conditional Use Permit for a 1,155-unit condominium development on the subject parcels). �' • Agenda No. •R-82-01 Segerstrom, Coast Community -2- College/Langslet III. ANALYSIS (Cont. ) ,A. The subject properties have never been developed to their couplete poten- tial under their present zoning classifications. Major portions of these properties are presently being utilized for outdoor storage purposes or are vacant. Buildings located on the northerly parcel and a few structures on the southerly parcel are obsolete and are no longer being utilized. B. In advance of this rezone request, the applicants filed General Plan Amendment GP-82-1A to amend the land use designations of the subject properties to Urban Center Residential. The requested zoning classifica- tion is consistent with the proposed General Plan designation. C. The subject parcels are an appropriate site for the PDR-UC zoning classi- fication due to their proximity to commercial centers, public transporta- tion routes, and community facilities (Orange Coast College and Costa Mesa High School). Moreover, the subject parcels are located amid an intense urban environment. The proposed development for the subject properties would be compatible with this environment. D. By rezoning the subject properties PDR-UC, proposed development will be able to meet the broader goals of the General Plan by displaying excel- lence in design, site planning, integration of uses and structures, and protection of the integrity of neighboring developments. Compatibility with adjacent uses will be ensured by the PDR-UC development standard requiring a 25-ft. wide, permanently maintained, landscaped open space along property lines adjacent to Adams Avenue, Pinecreek Drive, and Village Way (Warehouse Avenue). These linear landscaped areas will aesthetically enhance the site and will provide an additional buffer from neighboring properties. E. Under the PDR-UC category, the subject properties will be planned as a whole and integrated unit, under the direction of single ownership and/or control. Collectively, the subject sites are of adequate size to accomro- date the proposed development in a manner utilizing innovative and imagina- tive planning concepts that normally would not be practiced in conventional zoning districts. F. The increased number of dwelling units per acre that the PDR-UC zoning category permits (30.1 to 50.0 units per acre) is an effective method of accommodating the current housing demand in the local market. IV. PLANNING STAFF FINDINGS A. The Environmental Impact Report prepared for General Plan Amendment GP-82-.IA adequately considers the anticipated environmental impacts of the requested rezone. B. The requested zoning category is consistent with the pending General Plan designation. V.

Implementation of Objective 13 is to be acoargilished through a Planning Department Housing Element mmitoring program. The monitoring program will result in an annual report describing progress on each of the Program Objectives contained in the Housing Program. Based on the findings of this report the City is to evaluate the progress the City has made on implementing actions, and re-evaluate the Goals, Policies, and Program Objectives, in relation to this progress. At the City Council Meeting of July 26, 1982, the Council determined that the Goals, Policies, and Program Objectives were appropriate. Since significant progress has been made on implementation of the Program Objectives, and some changes to the implementing actions are warranted, the City Council initiated General Plan Amen&Lent 82-1(H) and directed the Planning Commission to camience public hearings as soon as possible. .- I T0: Plannin#tmussion - 2 i Discussion The purpose of the proposed General Plan Amendment is to update the Element to reflect the extensive Housing Element implementation actions taken by the City. These implementation actions involve Program Objectives 3, 4, 7 and 9. Attacbment No. 1 is a strikeout and underline copy of those portions of the Housing Element Program objectives being proposed for amendment. Identification of Sites (pages 1 and 2) . Amendments to Program Objective 3 involve minor deletions in the Findings section and the addition of new language describing the results of the City's General Plan implementation hearings. The Implementation Plan has been modified by adding a new implementation action which identifies sites the City has selected for General Plan Amendment hearings. Old objective "a" has become objective "b" and has been modified to allow the Planning Commission to continue identifying sites for increased residential density. The program target dates have been adjusted to reflect these changes. Mixed Use Devel t ( " . New language has been added to the Findings section OR Program Objective 4 identifying the General Plan policies and zoning districts available to the City to accomplish mixed use development. Development of Housing for Low and Moderate Income Households (pages 4 through 10) . The City has concentrated its General Plan implementation ettorts on Program Objective 7 which discusses the development of housing for low and moderate income households. Some obsolete language has been deleted from the ' tindings section. Several paragraphs have been added to the findings section describing the formation of the Housing Task Force on Government Funding, the adoption and application of the Mobile Hone Zone, identification of the North Ford site as a potential site for low and moderate income housing, the City's use of CDBG funds, the Section 8 Rent Subsidy Program, and the construction of the senior citizen housing project. The implementation plan for Objective 7 has been modified to reflect the actions the City has taken to implement the Housing Element. Implementation action "a" has been rewritten to identify when the City shall consider the use of the Community Development Block Grant and Tax-Exempt Mortgage Revenue Bond Programs. implementation action "b" clarifies when the City will encourage the development of rental housing. At the August 9, 1982 City Council Meeting, the Council disallowed the introduction of the proposed Ordinance amending the Newport Beach Municipal Code as it pertains to Residential Condominium Projects. The Council also directed the Planning Commission to consider changing the implementation action of Objective 9 of the Housing Element in recognition of conditions concerning the loss of rental housing and dislocation of rental tenants. Implementation action "c" has been modified to describe a retention of the existing Residential Condominium Ordinance as an effort to preserve rental housing and minimize the dislocation of existing tenants. Action V' has been rewritten to commit the City to future evaluation of mobile home parks for rezoning purposes. Implementation action "e" has not been changed. Implementation action "f" identifies the City requirement for replacement of housing demolished within the Coastal Zone. This requirement is consistent with the newly adopted Council Policy N-4. Implementation action "g" TO: Plarn :40m aission - 3 0 describes the City's authority to waive planning fees and limitations on park dedication requirements. Action "h" identifies what types of density bonuses and other incentives shall be granted when a developer agrees to building 25% of a proposed housing project for low and moderate income households. This density bonus and incentive concession is consistent with Government Code Sections 65915 through 65918. Rehabilitation of Existing Housing Inventory (page 11) . Four paragraphs of obsolete language have been deleted from the findings section of Program Objective 9. Both implementation actions (9a and 9b) and ompanion target dates have been eliminated. A new implementation action has been added to Program objective 9 which identifies the City's camitment to submitting a CDBG Program application for a housing rehabilitation program. PLANNING DEPAFaMEW JAME,S D. HMICKER, DIRECTOR By aig B 11 Senior er CB/pw AttacPmient: Attachment No. 1 Amp- "ATTACHMENT NO. 1" Page 1. C. Objective 3: To promote the development of an increased level of new housing production, consistent with sound planning and environmental standards. 1. Findings: A major, problem confronting the housing market and communities throughout the state is the fact that total housing production is occurring at a level that is less than necessary to satisfy the needs of the community. This "shortfall" in production has created a housing shortage with many adverse effects, not the least of which are low vacancy rates, higher prices, and less consumer choice in housing opportunities. While the volume of housing production is primarily determined by national economic conditions, a fact over which local governments have no control, there are several actions Which a local jurisdiction can take to stimulate increased Production within its boundaries, assuming suitable economic conditions exist. Among the usual techniques utilized by local governments to influence residential development are land use policies and development standards. While land use policies, generally, either frustrate or facilitate housing development (depending on the nature of such policies) , it appears that development standards and project reviews associated with those standards have a much mote limited effect. Put another way: it is reasonable to expect that local -governments can influence the rate of development through their adoption and enforcement of land use policies, it is less reasonable, however, to draw a similar conclusion with regard to the adoption and enforcement of development standards. The effect of such standards is more directly related to housing costs, not rates of development. The vacant land inventory and site analysis identified seventeen sites available for residential development. These sites will provide for a variety of housing types and incomes. Existing plans for these sites will permit residential densities to range from four to twenty-four dwelling units per acre. Additionally, four of these sites have been planned for residential and commercial/industrial land use mixes. The most direct and significant action which the city can take to improve the supply/needs imbalance is to increase the allowable density of development within the city, consistent with applicable fiscal and environmental considerations. The policy of allowing increased density is only meaningful, however, when it is applied to specific sites within the city. -the-heaerng-element-ie-a-�eee preferred-�vciritiie--fer-nekriewi�ig--rxrrcamk-der�mity--their-4s tke-e#kyle-setsfng-preceee: . r • y • • III Page 2. Since the adoption of the Housing Element the Planning Commission and City Council have held General Plan Housing Element Implementation hearings which have resulted in the initiation .of General Plan Amendments on five (5) specific sites to consider increased-residential densities. 2. Implementation Plan: The following activities shall be undertaken in support of this objective: a. The City of Newport Beach shall conduct General Plan Amendment Hearings to consider increased residential densities on the following sites: Site Buildable Acreage Cal Trans West 10.1 acres Freeway Reservation West (Big Canyon Area 16) 8.7 acres Fifth Avenue Parcel 10.0 acres Marguerite Avenue Parcel 6.8 acres North Ford ` 29.5 acres These hearings shall be conducted in conformance with the Planning and' Zoning Law, California Government Code Section 65356.1. Necessary environmental documentation shall also be prepared, as required by the California Environmental Quality Act. b. The Planning Commission shall continue to conduct •pyblic hearings designed to identify which of the remaining non- committed sites will be appropriate for increased levels of allowable density without engendering adverse environmental and other community conditions. 3. Target Date: The following implementation schedule shall be observed: a. The General Plan Amendments identified in 2 (a) (above) will be processed during 1982. b. Public hearing shall be conducted within three six• months after adeptien-e€-this-element •the completion of the General Plan Amendment hearings discussed in 2(a) above, and recommendations for further• action. shall be submitted to the City Council within six-menthe one year after said adeptien hearing. Page 3. D. Objective 4: To encourage, wherever feasible, mixed use development that achieves a balance between residential and appropriate commercial/industrial activities. 1. Finding: There is evidence that development patterns which segregate housing from places of work, contribute to increased traffic problems, automobile fuel consumption, and fiscal demands on local governments. Moreover, such patterns may directly impact housing affordability, to the extent that they enhance or diminish the relationship between jobs and housing opportunities of the given labor force. It is recognized that the consumer is the ultimate judge of which development patterns are most preferablet this is the principle of supply and demand operating in its purest form. There is little that local government can or should do to influence where its citizens choose to live. it is indisputable, however, based on housing marketing studies, that consumers are showing an increasing preference for housing opportunities that are in close proximity to their employment. The bases of this tendency are higher fuel costs and the psychological frustrations of commuting. It is appropriate for the city to evidence its support of development patterns which mix residential and commercial/industrial uses and to encourage such patterns, as a policy matter, when it is feasible to do so. The City has a Commercial-Residential Zoning District which provides for a mixture of commercial and residential uses. This Zoning District is utilized on small parcels in appropriate locations throughout the community. The General Plan and P-C zone are used on larger parcels to accomplish mixed use development. 2. Implementation Plan: In major projects involving commercial and industrial uses, the city shall encourage wherever feasible, the development of housing that is geared to the affordability range of the projected labor force. 3. Target Dates: This policy objective shall be initiated immediately. • Page 4. G. Objective 7: To promote and assist in the development of housing for low- and moderate-income households. 1. Finding: For a variety of reasons, the private housing market does not provide an adequate choice of affordable housing opportunities for low- and moderate-income households. Such opportunities are not available in the supply of new housing construction, and they are becoming increasingly less available as a result of the "filtering process" - the traditional process by which older housing is "handed down" to households of lower incomes. The underlying premise of this process is that the upward mobility of middle- and higher-income households triggers the release of their housing, upon their purchase of new housing, to households of lower incomes. The validity of this concept weakens considerably in housing markets where there is intense higher-income demand and extreme shortage. Newport Beach is such a market. If the housing needs of low- and moderate-income households are to be adequately addressed, in most housing market areas of California, it will be necessary for local governments to design and implement a comprehensive strategy for achieving this objective. This strategy must not only seek to guide and encourage the private market to respond to the needs of low- and moderate-income households, it must provide a framework for the judicious, affirmative, and cooperative use of local regulatory powers to achieve such objective. While it is clear that local government must affirmatively use its powers to help provide for the housing needs of lower-income segments of the community, it is not clear at what point local government can intervene in the housing market without causing serious disruptions in the marketplace. �Phe--Eat€£ern#e--Eeasta�--Eenunissien;--in--its--interpretive 6n4de£snes--en--Hew--Eenstrnetien--ef--Henning;--Hates--that usma£�er---prerjc L�--dacle --eeenem4�es---of---sea-le---4+i---the eons tree t=en--frr<�-es4,--•have--greater-�ejrelopmesrb-e.�t-,--nnd prevsde--e--3eNer--�3trnd�r-o€--markeb—rates--e�rer-+rPri.eh--f axed eests- maY--be-tirsi.�.'ir�ictzir.J�---Based-won--tk'ts-�'ea'sf�2'YrxJ'y--the Eenun$ssien-generag�y-exempts-frrojeels-ro�-fcxtr-nrtrL•s-er-less £ran+- its -£ne�ttsiereary- xsing -regtt remer .---Tile -feet—tkat the-Eetntnissien-adds-�txr�hez�1'-t��rrt--tlxe -&ta�-begss£attrre-has iimi tad--�t-��tve•-reQt�3a£3on--of-i-and--dsr4stens--tznder -tke 6ttbdieisien-Harr het-te- - t-a+ s -where-#ii a ar-mere units-are-being-ereated;u-provides-e-£nrther-indieetien-that this-is-en-apprepr#ate-tkreske�d-sine-£er-the-genera3:-pe�iey deeeiepers-do—*tot--ls�tve•-the-eeonomi��_=___`____`_1 Ito-prevsde far-tAe-ine�ttsien-of-dew--end-moderate-iaeeMe-hetesing-rritkin . tke-i#mite-a€-€}ex#bi}ity-as-provided-in-6eetien-39g�3: Page S. The factor of project size in determining the appropriate "threshold" for government regulation is well-established. In addition to the examples cited by the Coastal Commission, there are countless other federal, state, and local incidences where the imposition of government regulation is withheld because the small size of the project makes it incapable of absorbing the impact of the proposed regulation. The "economies of scale" principle, which holds that small size new construction projects should be treated differently in the face of certain governmental regulations, does not dissipate once new construction is completed. The inability to absorb the impact of government regulations which may require the provision of private market housing "subsidies" is no less for the owner of an existing project than for the developer of a new one. In fact, the builder may be able to redesign the project or utilize government incentives to mitigate the adverse effects of regulations] the owner of existing units has no such options. Governmental efforts to provide housing for low- and moderate-income households through the regulation of private property, such as rent control, inclusionary housing programs, and prohibitions on the conversion of rental units to ownership, have one thing in common: they attempt to control housing prices within the private market. Regardless of the social or political merits of such efforts, they are not without economic consequences. In housing markets of extreme shortage and intense demand, conditions which exist in most coastal communities, any governmental efforts to benefit one segment of the community are likely to adversely affect another. To illustrate: rent controls may result in affordable housing for renters, but they may also result in financial hardship for property owners. Inclusionary housing programs may provide affordable housing for low- and moderate-income households, but such programs may also reduce developers' profits, and increase housing costs for households that do not qualify for the inclusionary units. Ironically, such programs may benefit low-income households and diminish housing opportunities for moderate-income households, and vice versa, at the same time. Policies restricting changes in housing tenure, such as the conversion of rentals to ownership, may preserve affordable rental housing for some low- and moderate-income households, but such prohibitions may also limit ownership opportunities for low- and moderate-income households who are capable of entering the housing market through the conversion process, and who would benefit from ownership as a result of the tax policies which favor ownership.

Unfortunately, the issues of who will be affected, and the extent of the effect, cannot always be determined at the time governmental regulations are adopted. It is therefore incumbent upon the adopting unit of government to make every attempt to anticipate consequences, to proceed cautiously, and to balance or mitigate any anticipated detrimental effects. This shall be the overriding policy governing all attempts by the City to provide housing for all economic segments of the community. Since the adoption of the Housing Element the Planning Commission and City Council have held General Plan Implementation hearings which have resulted in the formation of the Housing Task Force on Government Funding. The City Council and Housing Task Force have identified the use of Community Development Block Grant Funds as a source of assistance for low and moderate income households within the Community. The City has also adopted a Mobile Home Park Zone to preserve and encourage a variety of housing types and preserve an existing source of housing for low and moderate income households. The rezoning hearings involving mobile home parks within the City have been initiated. To date one mobile home park has been rezoned (291 units) , one is currently being considered (60 units) , and three additional parks (210 units) have been identified for consideration. In addition to being identified as a site for density increase hearings, the North Ford Site has been identified as a potential housing site for low and moderate income households. Federal financing and subsidy programs have been used in the City of Newport Beach since the mid 1970's. The City of Newport Beach utilized CDBG funds to acquire land and construct a senior citizen center to provide services for a large identifiable lower income segment of the Community needing services not otherwise provided. Page 7. The federally funded Section 8 Rent Subsidy Program currently subsidizes 30 lower income renters in the City. Approximately 75% of these renters have very lbw incomes. There has been a 30% increase in utilization of the Section 8 Federal Rent Subsidy Program since the adoption of the Housing Element. The City of Newport Beach and a non-profit corporation made a cooperative effort to construct a senior citizen housing project of 101 units for low and moderate income households. The City made the project possible by amending its Zoning Code to include senior citizen housing as an institutional use. The parking standards were relaxed and all in-lieu fees were eliminated. The non-profit corporation received a low interest 202 construction loan from the Federal Government and the tenants receive Section 8 rental assistance. 2.

Objective 9: To promote the conservation, rehabilitation, and redevelopment of the existing housing inventory. 1. Finding: The city's existing housing supply is important for many reasons. Among them are the following: the character of the community is shaped largely by its residential neighborhoods; much of the city's tax base is in its housing inventory; housing opportunities for lower-income households are almost exclusively confined to existing housing; and a large portion of the individual wealth of many Newport Beach residents may be found in the equities of their homes. The existing housing supply also represents essentially the last hope for homeownership for many moderate- and middle-income families who find themselves priced totally out of the new home market. Because of the many functions which existing housing serves, special policy consideration must be given to its use and occupancy. Efforts must be expended to protect existing equities, preserve affordability for lower-income households, deter the spread of physical blight, preserve and strengthen the tax base, and extend opportunities for entry into homeownership. These varied objectives are not always compatible; extreme caution must be exercised by the city to balance these objectives and to avoid disrupting reasonable interaction within the housing market. The three principal objectives which should be pursued by the city with respect to its existing housing supply are 1) to conserve housing which complies, with applicable housing codes; 2) to rehabilitate and upgrade deteriorating inventory; and 3) to promote the redevelopment of blighted, obsolete, or inefficiently utilized housing resources. In general, housing conservation, rehabilitation, and redevelopment are best handled by the private sector. Local government can stimulate or deter such activities, however, by the nature of the policies which they adopt and enforce. The range of actions which the city may take to spur housing conservation, rehabilitation, and redevelopment include housing code enforcement, land acquisition, the provision of low interest loans, and the facilitation of private redevelopment through tenure conversion. If demand is strong, housing rehabilitation and redevelopment will occur without governmental involvement. All that is necessary are appropriate public policies which allow the law of supply and demand to operate. It is indisputable that areas which are characterized by physical blight, and which give indications of future deterioration, have a high incidence of rental properties and absentee Page 12. ownership. Increasing the rate of homeownership is often all that is necessary to stabilize a deteriorating neighborhood and to redevelop that neighborhood. �Pke---e�:x�er4icxr--,�--rental---gropertY�--•to---keMeewnersksp {eendemsnsums}-kns-�.mpi�.•eat�.rtxrs--that--�ne�t•-d€sen ss4an.---Y+he mentk�Y-expense-e£-ewnsng-a-eenverted-oust-ss-usne��y-hsgker than--the--frost---o�F--reattng,---as--o-- ---�t---o-€--prepertY £mprevemente---snereased--mortgage--casts;--prefsts--te--the eenve rterT---mx}---es se egatgen---ekxes---f er---�rta�trt.•enance---and fianagement--- i�ropertey -sexes- also -#nereese- as -a-resu-1-t -ef ks gker--Rss�cd•---vaitia•1-iexr:---�phese--casts--•�+or3r---to--the detrsment-af-fewer-sneeme-keusehe�ds- en-the- )Ciez-4tan&;--the-prespeet-o£ ee�ntirnzed -irr€lation-end the-£�enefdto-o€-long-term-ewnersksp-- lax dedrtibi�itg-ef interest--payments;--egtt4tY--lses�d-np;--and--prepertY--ea�tte nppreesatsen----#ertd - to - cYffset--sko-rt-terns--casts----The eenverssen--ef--rental--ousts--er--eendemsnsums7--rrhseh--are tpps eat�Y--smabler-irr--terms-rof-3•aving--space-�retr-ssng�e- £emssy-units=-provi a-kedge-against- ±tf *n,- and-their msnsmas-masntenanee-respenssbs�stses-make-them-attreetsve-te ene-person-•o-r- .::_ _�____-keusehe�ds=-vleleY�-hoLtseixrlds-,--and eskers--at--casts- `a`u`c--are-sie�3ri-fyceent•3.�-dc�we��-then--new eenstrnetsen-eests- Pram--4he--estp•+s-ateiitt•-o€--aiec�r,-- lrhe-•-eenverssen- o£--tenses • ousts--rnereases--asses-xd•--valises--off--property--taxes--end stsmu�ates--private---re�?��eie�pmerrr�----�-on�erPrs-icxrr--c}@--net; kewever;-eentribute-•to-•mai-rrtai-zri-ng--�Yte--supplybf-af ferdab�e heussng-•€er-3.•ow---emd-���ttr-i-stcorne-�onsekaids.---�t-shea�d be-•m8in�.va�irr-sn-lTfrJ-regard;-1ZITSL -e-�-i:cm--agagnst eendemsnsum--•er+n=._--_otrs---does--net---t._ee�sari-ly--preserve heussng-�id.�.•tY-fc:r•-rawer-4neeme-�aoasehoids--trr-areas ef-}rig}r-demands--fn--!•ke-}ong-rttn:--ifs--c+alttatri:on•-£nereases; rents--w-r��-wise--to--t,�-�eve�--wlreeYr-•ean--be=-suppor�teel--bY demand---At-thss-pesnt;-heweverT-the-nature-ef-the-demand-ss sske}Y-te-change---£nstead-ef-rental-ousts-being-eeeupsed-by ene-fattti3Y�-•i�eey--crr��-be-rented-by--ert��:�__`_i�m•-a€-tenants {etudents;-unmarried-eeup�es7-ate.-}---�Pkere-ss-evsdenee-that this-Pattern--has•--a- ready-�•o-i�-es�ebi-iskeel--sn--Plewpert Beeekr--3f--�n;.;nr-eta-eent4nue-ttneheeked•�--t}ris--pattern-may result—sn•-,e--}richer--snesdenee--a€-i�-l��t-�-����Ld--cute trn££se;-nesghberheed-snstebs�sty;-end-e-hsgker-ersme-rate- Hens sag-rehabs�#tetsen-e f farts-mnY-ska3i-�•-c-.rtcrouraged•-as-e menus--ef--maintairri ng--afiferrdabi�- haussng--fcrr--sew---and mederete-snceme--keusekesds----�Pe--aekseve--tkss--ebgeetsve; several--�eee�--governments--offer--dew--snterest--keens--te esdersY-estisens-•and- =�-i�±c��-ko�xseho-lds-.--�Pke•-sauree-e£ funde-£er-tkss-e£fert-ss-genere��y-the-EemmunstY-Beve�epment Beek-6rent-Pregrnm- Page 13. 2.

Background At the Planning Commission Study Session of May 6, 1982 staff and several professionals from the housing development industry discussed the characteristics of higher density development. Based -on the information presented at this meeting the Commission made a recommendation to the City Council that a General Plan amendment be initiated to increase the residential density on the North Ford Site. On May 24 the City Council initiated the reramrended General Plan Amendment. Discussion Density Increases. Additional sites are currently being considered for increased residential density as part of General Plan Amendment 81-2. The sites included in GPA 81-2 are Caltrans West, Freeway Reservation West (Big Canyon) , and the two Fifth Avenue Parcels at Marguerite Avenue. High density alternatives are being considered for these three sites. Sites which have been identified for consideration of increased residential density in the Housing Element that have not been discussed include Westbay, Newporter North, Freeway Reservation East, Newport Center and the Fifth Avenue Parcel at Fifth Avenue and MacArthur Boulevard. A sixth site, the Baywood Expansion Site, was added to the list of sites to be considered for density increases. This site could be used to expand an existing rental project. Housing Element Objective 7, which is directed at providing housing for low- and moderate-income households, identifies the providing of incentives to increase the construction of rental units as a means of increasing the stock of housing available to low- and moderate-income households. TO: Planning CoWsion - 2 • Discussion Housing Element. Housing Element Objective 7 also commits the City to investigation of mortgage bond programs, consideration of renewed participation in the Community Development Block Grant Program and continued cooperation with the Orange County Housing Authority to provide Section 8 rental assistance. The federally funded Section 8 program is currently implementing that portion of the housing program which requires the utilization of governmental funding sources to meet the needs of low- and moderate-inane households. Additional sources of governmental funds to be considered for use by the City are the mortgage revenue bond programs and CDBG programs. The Housing Element commits the City to creating a Council appointed flask force for investigation of the CDBG program. Financing Alternatives. In cases where incentives such as increased residential density can not be granted because of resulting project impacts or do not sufficiently reduce selling prices, additional financing or funding sources may be advantageous. These financial sources are available through both public agencies and private industry. Several financing programs are offered by private industry. Mortgage buy downs reduce interest rates to a lower rate over the life of the loan. These loans vary in length from 3 to 30 years. Mortgage subsidies or graduated interest loans have a base interest rate which is reduced through a subsidy for a defined period of time. Additional programs such as "sleeping seconds" (60-30-10 financing) , negative equity and others will be discussed at the study session. Several sources of funds are also available through government approved or funded programs. Three primary funding programs are discussed. Mortgage Bond Programs. The Mortgage Bond Subsidy Act of 1980 (federal legislation) authorizes the use of mortgage revenue bonds for mortgages to purchase newly constructed single-family housing, for financing new multi-family housing, for mortgages to purchase existing single-family housing, and for single-family housing improvement and rehabilitation loans. All mortgages must be new mortgages, and MRB proceeds cannot be used to acquire, replace, or refinance an existing mortgage. Mortgage assumptions are allowed if all other borrower and sales price requirements are met. The new mortgage requirement is excepted only in the case of a qualified housing rehabilitation loan. Borrower and sales price restrictions as they apply to different types of mortgages are summarized below: A. Newly Constructed Single-Family Units 1. For purposes of new construction, single-family units include detached, single-family dwellings, condominiums, stock cooperatives, and factory-built housing permanently fixed to a foundation. Land which is in excess of that necessary to maintain basic livability or which produces income cannot be included as part of a qualifying single-family dwelling. • TO: Planning Co�sion - 3 • 2. All mortgagors must use the acquired dwelling unit as their principal residence. 3. First-time homebuyer requirement: all mortgagors must not have owned an interest in property used as a principal residence for the previous three years. This does not apply to loan co-signers who do not have an ownership interest in the property. 4. Acquisition prices of dwelling units must be below 90% of the average area purchase price for new single-family units. Housing in Newport Beach would have to be priced at or below $104,760. B. New Construction of Single-Family Units in Target Ares: Newport Beach does not have a target area. C. Mortgages for Existing Single-Family Dwellings: 1. Existing single-family dwellings which can be financed by MMs include types of single-family units eligible for new construction plus two-, three-, and four-unit residences, one unit of which is owner-occupied. This latter type of structure is only eligible if it has been occupied for five years. 2. All existing single-family dwellings acquired must be occupied as the principal residence of the mortgagor. 3. First-time homebuyer requirement: all mortgagors must not have owned an interest in property used as a principal residence for the previous three years. 4. Acquisition prices of dwelling units must be below 90% of the average area purchase price for used single-family units. Housing in Newport Beach would have to be priced at or below $110,430. D. Home Improvement Loans Home Inprovement loans to a maximum of $15,000 may be made from bond funds for owner occupied single-family dwellings. These loans must be used for repairs or improvements to protect the basic livability of a unit or to inprove its energy efficiency. A larger rehabilitation loan may be made on houses identified as being over 20 years old. j TO: Planning C sion - 4 a Mortgage revenue bond programs in California must be implemented under the authority of one of the state statutes as well as the Mortgage Subsidy Bond Act of 1980. The major State programs for construction of single-family housing are AB 1355 and SB 99. Focal Housing Finance Agency Act of 1979 (AB 1355) This act was created to allow cities and counties in California to issue tax-exempt mortgage revenue bonds to reduce the shortage of affordable housing in the state. Mortgages financed under AB 1355 issues are to benefit persons not presently eligible for financing through the private sector. Special attention was given by the Legislature in drafting this act to avoid competition with private financial institutions, ,and to target assistance to harnbuyers at the lower end of the homebuying spectrum. Location and Character of Residential Construction Authorized by AB 1355: 1. AB 1355 authorizes cities and counties to issue revenue bonds to provide mortgage capital for owner-occupied single dwelling units, condominiums, or units in a stock cooperative where the occupant is a shareholder. 2. Mortgages may be provided for newly-constructed units located anywhere within a local jurisdiction provided that such a program is authorized by a local ordinance for the purpose of increasing the housing supply. 3. Loans may be provided for rehabilitation in local areas or neighborhoods designated for a housing rehabilitation or code enforcement program. Mortgages for the purpose of refinancing are not authorized unless substantial rehabilitation is to be undertaken in connection with such a loan. 4. Income limits under AB 1355 are as follows: a. Mortgages for new hones must be issued only to households whose incomes are 120% or less than the median household income. AB 1294 (Costa) amended this income limit to 150% of me-dian household income for a period of approximately one year. This may further limit the sales price of new housing to approximately $90,000. b. Mortgages for improving a have are to be issued only to households with incomes below 120% of the median household income. AB 1294 (Costa) raised this income limit to 150% of median household income for a period of approximately one year. c. Mortgages for homes where the purchaser will not be the first occupant must be issued to households with incomes below 100% of the median household income, with 1 TO: Planning Cot*sion - 5 • r 50% of such funds allocated to mortgages for households below 80% of the median or 90% where the local legislature has made a specific finding requiring this higher income level. AB 1294 (Costa) also amended these percentages to 120%, 100%, and 110%, respectively. d. Mortgages for new homes and for home improvement loans may be issued to households with incones below 150% of the median income if the financed units are within a special impact area as designated by the U.S. Department of Commerce (Title IV redevelopment area) and if the area is eligible for Urban Development Action Grant funds. This language was not removed by AB 1294 because of the temporary nature of the increases to income limitations. e. AB 1355 defines median household inane as the highest of the following: - State wide median household income; - Countywide median household inane; or - Median family income as determined by the U.S. Departmmt of Housing and Urban Development for the area. 5. All AB 1355 issues must allocate at least 60% of financing from bond proceeds to either new construction or substantial rehabilitation. Substantial rehabilitation costs are costs equal or in excess of 20% of the value of the structure after rehabilitation. Redeveloprmnt Construction Loan Act of 1975 (SB 99) The SB 99 program authorizes residential construction in urban redevelopment areas in order to stimulate the process of revitalization. The City of Newport Beach cannot participate in this program because it does not have a redevelopment program. Marks - Foran Rehabilitation Bonds Another bond program for rehabilitation funds does exist. This bond program is authorized by the Marks - Foran Residential Rehabilitation Act of 1973. The program is more flexible in terms of acceptable programs and does not require the existence of a redevelopment agency. This bond program does require participating agencies to prevent the displacement of rehabilitation area residents or provide relocation assistance if the rehabilitation of housing results in rent increases of other increases in housing costs that dislocate residents. TO: Planning C ssion - 6 • Multi-Family Housing The issuance of mortgage revenue bonds for multi-family housing is authorized by federal and state legislation. Unlike single-family MRB legislation, federal and state laws in regard to the use of revenue bonds for multi-family housing are essentially the same. Federal Law The Mortgage Subsidy Bond Act of 1980 details federal authorization of multi-family revenue bonds under Section 103(b) of the Internal Revenue Code. It requires that multi-family projects financed with revenue bonds reserve a minimum of 20% of total units for occupancy by lacer-income households. Projects in target areas must reserve only 15% of total units for lower-income occupancy. The federal law does not impose a limit on the amount of bonds to be issued for multi-family housing, although state legislation does limit the amount in order to avoid an oversupply of tax-exempt bonds in the market. State Laws City and County Issuances: Until recently, only charter cities were authorized to issue tax-exempt mortgage revenue bonds to finance the construction of multi-family housing. on March 12, 1982, AB 665 was signed into law by the Governor authorizing all cities and counties to issue mortgage revenue bonds for this purpose. AB 665 will remain in effect until January 1, 1984. This new law also authorizes the issuance of revenue bonds to finance construction loans or mortgage loans to the sponsors of multi-family housing and to finance the provision of capital improvements necessary for such multi-family housing. Cities and counties may also make loans to lending institutions for this purpose. CouTercial property may be financed in conjunction with multi-family projects if the financing for such property does not exceed 10% of the proceeds of the issue, and if the commercial property is on the same parcel or the parcel adjacent to the multi-family parcel. Any revenues earned on the commercial project in excess of debt service, reserves, and operating expenses related to the project must be used to reduce rents on units within the multi-family project reserved for law- and very low-intone households. Not less than 20% of all multi-family units in a project financed by revenue bonds must be reserved for occupancy, on a priority basis, by lower-income households, defined as households whose income is below income limits of the HUD Section 8 housing program. To the extent feasible, half of the reserved units must be reserved for very low-income households. Sponsors of such multi-family projects must enter into a regulatory agreement with the issuing agency providing that these units be reserved for lower-income occupancy y TO: Planning CcOssion - 7 • for at least 20 years. This agreement is to be binding upon succeeding owners of the property. Cities and counties are authorized by AB 665 to enter into an agreement with the California Housing Finance Agency to issue bonds for multi-family housing projects. in such an instance, CHFA will supervise construction and management of the development, and the same rules apply in regard to reserving units for occupancy by lower-income households. The new law limits the amount of bonds to be issued for multi-family housing in any calendar year to $900,000,000. In order to administer this limit, each city or county intending to issue bonds for multi-family housing must report its plans ,to the State Treasurer, who will monitor and limit issuances to this amount. Community Development Block Grant Program. The Community Development Block Grant Program is an assistance program that provides funds to public agencies for a variety of programs. Recent changes in CDBG regulations specify that the application need only be a written statement of the general goals of the proposed program. Program applications must be submitted by September 30, 1982. Newport Beach qualifies as an entitlement city because the city's population is in excess of 50,000. As an entitlement city Newport Beach has $496,000 in grant fund available. These entitlement funds can be used for the acquisition of land for construction of public facilities (parking facilities) or public works projects, and the construction costs of such projects. Block Grant funds may be used to acquire land for the development of housing for low- and moderate-income persons. A rehabilitation / program of publicly or privately owned housing is also permitted by the Block Grant Program. As part of these programs a participating agency must agree to a number of assurances. The more significant of these assurances are the affirmative action requirements for person involved with the project, the requirement for employment of the local labor force on the project, the preparation of a Housing Assistance plan and possibly an assurance that housing would be preserved for low- and moderate-inane people for a definite period of time. Section 8 Program. The Section 8 rental assistance program has undergone extensive revision and will continue to receive funds. Currently 25 residents of Newport Beach receive rental assistance under this program, 19 (76%) of which are defined as very low income (below 50% of the Orange County Median income) . This program is administered by the Orange County Housing Authority. PLANNING DEPARTMENT JAMES D. HEWICKER, Director G T. Senior Pfanner CTB:nma THE IRVINE =PAW 55d Newport Center Drive, P.O.

Attached for your reivew is a ,packet of information assembled from our files which provides an overview of the problem of financing new housing construction which is affordable primarily to moderate income families. As a result of your review of the Housing Element Implementation Program, we would like to suggest that the City take the following actions in re- lation to available housing programs: 1 . Prepare a Housing Assistance Plan in order to qualify for City partici- pation in the Section 8 existing housing program and Section 202 construction of housing for elderly program. 2. Adopt resolution as required to participate in the County of Orange's Mortgage Revenue Bond Program for financing affordable housing, such as Mortgage Revenue Bonds, Loans-to-Lenders Program (for apartment construction and for sale housing). 3. Ensure compatibility of Condominium Conversion Ordinance with require- ments of financial institutions pertaining to condominium tract map approval as a condition of loan approval for apartment construction. 4. Reapply for participation in the Community Development Block Grant Program, and designate use of the proceeds to reduce the cost of off- site improvements and land.

Adopt a resolution entitled: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF IRVINE ADOPTING A HOME MORTGAGE FINANCE PROGRAM IN COOPERATION WITH THE COUNTY OF ORANGE (ATTACHMENT 1) . 2. Approve subject to City Attorney approval, and authorize the Mayor to execute a cooperative agreement between the County of Orange and the City of Irvine (Attachment 2) . ISSUES: 1. Should Irvine enter into a cooperative agreement with Orange County to participate in the County' s Home Mortgage Finance Program? 2. Should the Woodbridge Alders project be approved for financing through this program? HISTORY: The Alders site, located at the corner of Culver Drive and Alton Parkway, was originally proposed for apartment development by The Irvine Company and Irvine Pacific. A tentative tract map was approved in August, 1978; and a site plan and conditional use permit were approved in December, 1979. A preliminary commitment for Section 8 Rental Assistance for 80 units on this site was received from HUD in October, 1980. These units were intended to count towards satisfaction of the lawsuit settlement commitment. With the subsequent change in federal administration, it was not possible to secure construction financing through HUD. The Irvine Company thenproposed to develop the site with condominium units, 2/3 of which would be priced to satisfy the city' s inclusionary zoning requirements. The tract map was revised accordingly, and the conditional use permit and site design were approved on October 15, 1981. s-� C.C. Meeting May 20, 1982 Orange County Mortgage Page 2 Finance Program In February, 1982, Orange County began planning for a mortgage revenue bond issue, pursuant to the federal Mortgage Subsidy Bond Tax Act of 1980 and California's Costa-Marks Act. The County program included the opportunity for cities to participate in the program, and Irvine Pacific indicated an interest in reserving bond proceeds for use on the Alders project. At that time, however, the County required resale controls on all projects financed with bond proceeds, including those in participating cities that did not have resale control policies of their own. Under these circumstances, Irvine Pacific did not pursue the program. On March 9, 1982, the Orange County Board of Supervisors decided that resale controls are not required on projects in participating cities, as long as such projects are in compliance with the city' s housing element. With this change in requirements, The Irvine Company intends to use County bond proceeds for the Alders project. Before bond proceeds may be used in a city, Orange County requires approval,by resolution, of a cooperative agree- ment, and approval of the specific project to be financed with the bond proceeds. These approvals must be given no later than May 26, 1982. ANALYSIS: Orange County plans to issue up to $76 million in mortgage revenue bonds prior to August 19, 1982. The target dates for marketing the bonds are from May 26 to June 6, 1982. The proceeds from these bonds will be used for mortgage subsidies in unincorporated areas of the County and in participating cities. It is anticipated that 30-year, fixed rate mortgages will be used, and that, with private mortgage insurance, the rate to the borrower will be approximately 14%. All of the responsibilities for administering the bond sale and disbursement of the proceeds will be borne by the County. There will be no City program administration require- ments beyond the usual monitoring of inclusionary units. For city projects, state law limits the qualifying income for participating households to 120% of the county median income. This is consistent with the definition of moderate income in Irvine' s Housing Element. Affordable prices for the units are defined as those which qualified households can afford using FHLMC lending standards assuming a 10% down payment and including principal, interest, property taxes, insurance (including private mortgage insurance) and homeowner association dues. These 5 � - C.C. Meeting May 20, 1982 Orange County Mortgage Page 3 Finance Program standards are flexible, and allow payments ranging from 28% to 33% of monthly income. Under Irvine' s inclusionary program, units are priced at a maximum of three times the income limit- ation, without giving consideration to financing costs. Prices satisfying requirements of the County bond program would likely be lower than those normally allowed for city inclusionary units and, therefore, consistent with Irvine' s Housing Element. CONCLUSION: The Orange County Home Mortgage Finance Program presents an opportunity to make affordable units with low-cost financing available in Irvine, with no administrative burden on the City. The program requirements are consistent with Irvine' s Housing Element with regard to income limits, pricing and resale controls. The specific project involved, Woodbridge Alders, is one that has a historyas a hopeful affordable housing project, which could finally be realized through this program.

Based on recent bond issues by other jurisdictions and near-term projections, bond market conditions have improved significantly and preparation of the 1982 Series II Single Family Housing Revenue Bond Issue should begin with an anticipated marketing date of the first week in June. The structure of the upcoming bond issue will be nearly identical to the Series I issue. It is anticipated that the issue size will be approximately $75 million. The only structure changes proposed for your Board's consideration are: 1. The potential inclusion of financing for resales on a limited basis. The cities of Huntington Beach, Yorba Linda, Santa Ana, and Tustin responded to the County's original request for participation in the County's upcoming bond issue. Their requests were specifically mentioned in the `County's mortgage revenue bond allocation request to the State. Consequently, certain amounts were specifically earmarked for use in each city's jurisdiction. Subsequently, developers have withdrawn, modified or reduced requests creating the potential for allocation loss if the funds were not used in the original jurisdiction. To utilize the available Huntington Beach funds, the Huntington Beach Board of Realtors has proposed I using the funding for financing resales to qualified buyers in the city jurisdiction. The basic qualifications are first-time homebuyers whose income does not exceed 100% of the County median I income with 50% of the funds being used for purchasers with incomes below 80% of the median. The Huntington Beach Board of Realtors is presenting a request to the city council to sign a cooperative agreement with the County to use Huntington Beach's mortgage C. EACH SUP,. - AO & COCO Honorable Board o0pervisors • ` y May 25, 1982 Page 2 revenue bond allocation to finance qualified resales. It is proposed that staff be authorized to draft the necessary cooperative agreement to utilize mortgage revenue bond funds for resales on a pilot basis in Huntington Beach and to contact the remaining cities and the appropriate Boards of Realtors to determine if there is any interest in participating in a pilot resale financing program with any unused funds from the allocation to each city. Additionally, statutes require that another $2.75 million of mortgage revenue bond funds be reserved for one year for use in the one designated target area located in jurisdictions participating in the bond program. The target area is located near Laguna Hills Leisure World bounded by E1 Toro Road, the San Diego Freeway and Laguna Canyon Road/Laguna Freeway. There are known new construction projects meeting program criteria in this area. Therefore, it is proposed that staff be authorized to contact the Saddleback Board of Realtors to determine if there is any interest in participating in a resale financing program. Any use of funds for a resale financing program should be on a pilot basis with adequate review and evaluation before future use of funds to finance resales. 2. Resolicitation of lenders for lower origination and servicing fees. Subsequent to the County's Series I issue other California issuers have received loan origination services for the same fee as the current fee to the County, but-the servicing fees have been as low as 18 basis points versus the 25 the County is now paying. It is requested that CAO-Bond/Capital Funding Manager be authorized to contact all lenders that have indicated an interest in participating in the mortgage revenue bond program on the basis that the maximum fee the County will pay is 50 basis points for origination plus $200 closing costs and 18 basis points for servicing+, This will translate into a direct 7 basis point savings for the program mortgage interest rate. The proposed upcoming bond issue is a continuation of the utilization of the 1982 State mortgage bond allocation. As previously reported to your Board, the financing team was hired to complete this year's State allocation and the following have indicated their desire to complete the second in the series of issues under the same terms and conditions as the recently completed issue: Security Pacific Bank--Trustee Investor's Mortgage--Program Administrator/Private Mortgage Insurer A. G. Becker--Senior Managing Underwriter E. F. Hutton--Co-Manager Salomon Brothers=Co-llanager Dean Witter Reynolds--Co-Manager Merrill Lynch--Co-Manager Blyth Eastman Paine Webber--Co-Manager Staff is recommending a revision in the contract for bond counsel services. The County has utilized co-bond counsels with one firm specializing in real estate to provide the expertise necessary to I� Honorable Board o0uperyisors • May 25, 1982 Page 3 address the development and modification of the County's resale control program. As the resale control program modifications have now been completed, the need for the specialized real estate expertise will be greatly minimized. Therefore, it is proposed that the contract for bond counsel services be revised to the effect that Irell and Manella be designated Special Counsel and Stradling, Yocca, Carlson & Rauth continue as Bond Counsel. To the extent there is requirement for the specialized expertise provided by Irell and Manella, the services can be billed on a direct hourly basis. This will save $25,000 in bond counsel fees less the cost of any utilization of Irell and Manella services. Stradling, Yocca, Carlson & Rauth has submitted a letter agreement (Attachment I) reflecting the above changes. It is recommended that the agreement be approved and the Clerk of the Board authorized to sign the agreement. It is further recommended that the CAO-Bond/ Capital Funding Manager with the assistance of County Counsel be authorized to negotiate a letter agreement with Irell and Manella for their services as Special Counsel. The completed agreement will be submitted to the Housing Revenue Bond Advisory Committee for their review and approval prior to submission of the contract to your Board for final. approval. The rating agencies will require an update of the feasibility study and an amendment to the study to meet the requirements for the inclusion of any housing resale financing in the bond issue. Questor Associates, a well-recognized California firm, has informally contacted County staff to indicate their interest in performing the study update at a very reasonable fee. Due to the very short timeframe for completion of the study, it is recommended that the CAO-Bond/Capital Funding Manager with the assistance of County Counsel be authorized to contact Plantec Corporation, the firm that conducted the feasibility study for the recent bond issue, and any other qualified firm to negotiate a contract for completion of the feasibility study update for the Chairman of the Board's signature. The contract would not exceed $8,000. If the bonds were not issued in a reasonable length of time, the fee would, be a liability of the County. As previously indicated, the structure of the upcoming bond issue will be the same as the first 1982 housing revenue bond issue. It is requested that your Board approve the utilization of the final documents from the first 1982 issue as the draft documents for the upcoming issue and authorize staff to make the necessary amendments to reflect the previously discussed changes and any other minor technical legal changes. The final documents will be presented to your Board for review and approval. Attachment II is• a listing of all the projects that have been submitted for inclusion in the proposed bond issue. Developers have been requested to sign a Developer Agreement without paying the commitment fee by May 20, 1982 to indicate their clear understanding of the terms and conditions and their firm intent to participate in the bond issue. If a developer subsequently 'wit'kdraws after signing the agreement, they would be placed in the lowest priority for participation in any subsequent 1982 or 1983 bond issues. To the extent there remains any oversubscription, staff will recommend a priority system to your Board for final project approval and selection. The material in this report has been discussed with the Housing Revenue Bond Advisory Committee and they unanimously concur in the recommendations. —_ •w...n......•............r...v....�..e-wv.nwewi.r.+✓�eraav+uwavvmaa...ar+rra++.++wuu«..ex..».r...aa.+.•W_t..•:L".Yat4te�4.1viy»y4' ' Honorable Board o0pervisors • - May 25, 1982 Page 4 If you have any questions, please contact John Gibson at 834-6135.

The bond issue received a "AA" rating from Standard and Poors and was sold at a net interest cost of approximately 12.92% resulting in a stated mortgage interest rate of 13.375%. Federal statutes governing the issuance of mortgage revenue bonds require that of the total amount of the bond issue, a certain portion of funds be reserved for use in any target areas in the unincorporated territory or participating cities. A target area is any census tract (1970 census) in which 70% of the households have an income of less than 80% of the State median income at the time of the census. There is one target area. It is located in the unincorpor- ated territory consisting of census tracts 626.21, 626.22, 626.23 generally located in the Laguna Hills Leisure World area. The required amount for reservation is $2,772,578. Each developer has agreed to allow 51 of their funds to be withheld for use in the target area. However, several of the developers anticipate utilizing their bond funds during the first year of the bond issue and the reservation of funds would cause their projects not to be fully funded. To assist with this problem and facilitate the implementation of the bond issue, 1-7A ' Honorable Board of S visors April 13, 1982 Page 2 Mission Viejo Company, S&S, and Pacesetter have agreed to allow any funds used in the target area to be taken from their allocation of funds (a significant proportion of these allocations will not be utilized until the second or third year of the bond issue) on the basis that the developers will be paid 5 basis points for any funds that are so utilized and that they have a first priority position in subsequent bond issues to replace any funds lost. The 5 basis points provides a 1/2 basis point return to the developers over their initial 4 1/2 basis point commitment fee to partially compensate them for the loss of use of the funds. Attached is a proposed amendment to the Mission Viejo Company, S&S, and Pacesetter developer agreements reflecting the necessary revisions. In four to six weeks, the housing revenue bond financing team will continue the series of bond issues to utilize the remainder of the $130.8 million State allocation to the County and participating cities. If you have any questions, please contact John Gibson at 834-6135. Recommmendations 1. Approve the draft resolution. 2.

Chairman of the Board of Supervisors ATTEST: Clerk of the Board of Supervisors (SEAL] a APARTMENT LOANS PROGRAM Prepared by: f FIRST INTERSTATE BANK OF CALIFORNIA 707 Wilshire Boulevard W12-1 Los Angeles , California 90017 (213) 614-5350 And NEWMAN AND ASSOCIATES, INC. 717 Seventeenth Street , Suite 2180 Denver, Colorado 80202 (303) 572-8500 x 4 1 9 k R I INTRODUCTION Conventional methods of financing apartments have been economi- cally infeasible for some time because of the high cost of bor- rowing. As a result, there has been very little apartment development . This fact , combined with the removal of a signi- ficant portion of available apartment stock due to condominium conversions, and the cutback in Federal insurance and subsidy - programs has led to a shortage of affordable, decent and safe apartments. The Apartment Loans Program is designed to help local public agencies encourage private enterprise to provide apartment stock. k li 3 i I i i , THE APARTMENT LOANS PROGRAM The Apartment Loans Program enables savings and loan asso- ciations, banks and other traditional mortgage lenders with existing pools of single-family mortgage loans to provide low- cost construction and permanent financing to developers of multifamily housing projects, where 80% of the units will be occupied by persons of middle income and 20% of the units will be occupied by persons of low or moderate income. The Program requires the issuance of tax-exempt bonds and the use of bond proceeds by the Trustee to purchase from the lenders a participation in a portfolio of seasoned, single- family mortgage loans which will produce an adequate cash flow to retire the bond issue. The lenders, in turn, utilize the proceeds from the sale of the participation to make loans to developers to finance qualifying multi-family housing projects. The Tax-Exempt Multi-family Loan Program affords low-cost financing for the developer while enabling it to deal directly with its local mortgage lender with minimal outside restric- tions. The Program will set a maximum rate which may be charged to the developer on the multi-family mortgage loan, but other- wise the lender will be allowed to negotiate the terms of the mortgage loan directly with the developer. The developer, for its part, must agree to maintain 20% of the units in the project available for occupancy by persons of low or moderate income within the meaning of the Section 8 program, but there is no requirement that such tenants actually receive a government subsidy and no restriction as to how the developer offsets the costs associated with those units. It is anticipated that the loans will generally provide for level payments of principal and interest over 25 years, maturing to a 12-year balloon (coinciding with the mat.urity of the bond issue) , but such terms are open to negotiation between the lender and the developer. I The Program enables the mortgage lenders to substantially increase their return on low-yield single-family mortgage loans by using those loans to collateralize the multi-family loans. Each mortgage lender will be paid an annual fee of up to 1. 5% of the loans made by it for providing the participations. They will also be entitled to profit from the temporary investment of undisbursed loan proceeds and will be free to charge con- struction and permanent loan discounts typically charged in connection with the extension of loans for multi-family housing development. In addition, each lender will be paid a normal fee for servicing the single-family loans in the participation pool. Benefits to Developers Interest rates substantially below those currently available for non-tax-exempt financing . The lending rate to the developer obtainable under this Program is anticipated to be 50 to 100 basis points below that obtainable through comparable loans-to-lenders pro- grams. This is due to the fact that the bond issue will have a shorter average maturity than under most loans-to- lenders programs (9 years as compared to 12 or 13 years) and the fact that no insurance of the mortgage loan is required in contrast to most loans-to-lenders programs. Such additional amounts ultimately are passed through to the developer in the form of a higher mortgage loan rate. The• Program offers maximum flexibility for negotiation with a lender the developer is familiar in working with to arrive at mutually satisfactory mortgage loan terms, as described above. Tax-exempt financing is available -without the usual long waiting periods and certifications required by other tax-exempt financing methods. Benefits to Lenders Older low-yielding single-family loans can be used to collateralize new multi-family loans, thus increasing the yield on the portfolio and the income to the lender. Low-yielding single-family loans can be utilized without recognition of a loss by the lender, since for account- ing purposes the transaction is treated as a loan of the single-family mortgages and not a sale. There is no requirement that the full faith and credit of the lender be pledged to repayment of the bonds. The lender has maximum flexibility to negotiate the terms of the loan with the developer (e. g. , loan discount, equity participation, amortization, maturity) as long as the rate is within the maximum rate permitted under the Program. The Program enables the mortgage lender to maintain existing and encourage new banking and depository rela- tionships with developers. The Program enables each mortgage lender to satisfy the need for multi-family housing units in its market area. Financing Team A successful tax-exempt financing team includes the following parties : investment banker, bond issuer, lenders, developers, trustee, and bond counsel. It is crucial to have experienced team members. Investment Bankers First Interstate Bank was one of the five largest under- writers of housing issues in the first quarter of 1981 with $261 .3 million in new financing issues. Over the past several years the Bank has acted as senior manager for six California Housing Finance Agency issues totaling $213 .3 million. In addition, First Interstate Bank has responded to the need for adequate housing by managing or participating in a total of over $8 billion in housing redevelopment issues over the past five years. First Interstate Bank will be represented by Byron Sayre, Manager of Public Finance, William Klein, Manager of Research and Disclosure, and Dewey Mastick, Vice President. Newman and Associates, Inc . , is a national leader in tax- exempt financing of apartment complexes' Last year alone, Newman and Associates , Inc. , provided more than $220 million of tax-exempt financing for 75 apartment complexes geographically ranging from Washington, D.C. , to Hawaii . Newman and Asso- ciates , Inc . , will be represented by Brad, James, Vice President , David Smith, Vice President , and Douglas Smith. Haynes $ Miller (Washington, D.C. ) will act as underwriter' s counsel and prepare the offering documents and assist in the structuring of the financing . Bond Issuer The local governmental unit (e. g. , county, city, housing authority, development authority) which has authority to issue tax-exempt bonds to finance multi-family housing will be selected as the Issuer of the Bonds . The Bonds will be special and limited obligations of the Issuer, payable only from the participation in the single-family mortgage loans purchased with Bond proceeds and certain other reserves and assets pledged to repayment of the Bonds , and not through the general taxing power or other assets of the Issuer. Lenders It is anticipated that any financial institution having access to a pool of seasoned single-family mortgages may parti- cipate in the Program. This would include banks, savings and loan associations and other traditional mortgage lenders. Cash flows from the multi-family housing projects will be utilized to repay the loans from the lenders. Developers Any developer of a new apartment complex or purchaser of an existing apartment complex, 20% of the units of which will be dedicated to low or moderate-income tenants, will be eligible for participation in the Program. Twenty percent (20% ) of the units must be held available for low or moderate-income tenants for a 20 year period. Eighty percent (80%) of the units are available for middle-income tenants for the life of the loan to the developer (no prepayments are to be allowed prior to approximately the seventh year) . Trustee The trustee, usually a commercial bank, is knowledgeable regarding the overall transaction, manages the funds, and per- forms various other trust duties as instructed in the trust indenture. Bond' Counsel Tax-exempt bond purchasers require a nationally recognized legal opinion as a prerequisite to purchasing tax-exempt instru- ments. Nationally recognized bond counsel must be retained to prepare the necessary legal documents and to render an unquali- fied legal opinion as to the legality and tax-exempt status of the transaction. I _ ' 0 The Mortgage Loans The local lender, upon posting collateral , borrows money from the issuer and in turn funds either the construction and/or the permanent loan to the apartment complex. The loans have an amortization of approximately 25 years with a balloon payment in 10 years . The lender may post several forms of collateral for the mortgage loan. The forms of collateral are as follows : Direct obligations of the U. S. Government or U. S. Government guaranteed securities in an amount whose market value equals 125 percent of the loan to the lender; FHA/VA single family mortgage loans whose market value equals 140 percent of the loan to the lender; Single family mortgage loans whose market value equals 150 - percent of the loan to the lender; or - A participation certificate in a single family mortgage pool of loans . The participation certificate is the most advantageous program for the lender and the borrower. The primary benefit is the 1/2 to 3/4 of a percent savings in the overall interest cost of the mortgage as compared to the other forms of collateralization of the mortgage loans . The Apartment Complex Apartments that have not begun construction or been purchased prior to the adoption of an inducement resolution by the issuer will qualify for financing. They must be in the geographical boundaries of the agency issuing the bonds . There are no restrictions on either the number of units in the apartment complex, the size of the units , or amenities offered with the units . Based on the requirements of the Mortgage Revenue Bond Subsidy Act amending the Internal Revenue Code, at least 20 percent of the units must be occupied by households having incomes 80 percent or less of the median income of the area. Loan documents between the lender and owner of the complex will provide for the enforcement of the income restriction requirements .

PASSED AND ADOPTED by the City Council of the City of Irvine at a regular meeting held on the 15th day of December, 1981. David G. Stills Mayor of the City of Irvine ATTEST: City Clerk of the City of Irvine STATE OF CALIFORNIA ) COUNTY OF ORANGE ) SS CITY OF IRVINE ) I, NANCY C. ROWLAND, City Clerk of the City of Irvine, HEREBY DO CERTIFY that the foregoing Resolution was duly adopted at a regular meeting of the City Council of the City of Irvine, held on the 15th day of December, 1981, by the following roll call vote: AYES: NOES: ABSENT: CITY CLERK OF THE CITY OF IRVINE 2. PUBLIC/PRIVATE JOINT VENTURE Location: Site 18 San Diego California Project: 65 acres 280 Condominiums 120 Section 8 rental units Developer: San Diego Housing Commission/Collins Development Company, a joint venture Fiscal Impact on City of San Diego: Financial return to the City: (1) receipt of the current full appraised value of the raw land underlying the 280 condominium units ($1.47 million); (2) a 45% share of the "proceeds" realized on the ' sale of the condominiums; and, (3) ownership of the 120 Section 8 rental units (which can be retained or sold) . Financial risks to the City (1) the Housing Authority/Commission will be responsible for the development costs and financing for the Section 8 rental project; (2) a projected mortgage shortfall on the Section 8 rentals must be eliminated; (3) the land must be subordinated to the development loan for both the condominium and rental project; and, (4) a downturn in the real estate market could reduce the expected profit on the condominium units. While these risks do exist, they are no greater than those risks taken by the private sector in today's housing market and represent reasonable risks given the potential return to the City. BA MORTGAGE AND INTERNATIONAL REALTY CORPORATION R , , Background: The City of San Diego determined in June of 1978 that one of its city owned properties, Site 18, be sold for residential development through an RFP process. (see time table for details.) Purchase Price: The purchase price for the condominium portion of the property is $1.47 million land value, plus 45% of the "proceeds" realized as a result of the sale of the condominium units. This equates to a per unit value of $5,250 for the unimproved raw land, without access or an approved map. The $1.47 million purchase price (70% of total land value) is for the land underlying the proposed 280 condominium units (70% of the expected units in the project.) Payment of the $1.47 million land value will be made in the form of a promissory note secured by a deed of trust. A portion of the note will be paid as each condominium unit is sold. It is estimated that with the — 1.15 repayment factor contained in the agreement, the full land value will be paid after 87% of the condominiums are sold. ' An additional part of the purchase price is a 45% share of the "proceeds" realized on the sale of the condominiums. "Proceeds" are defined as the unit sales price minus all direct costs of the development. The direct costs, all of which are controlled in the Agreement, include land price, construction costs, loan costs, marketing, and costs of escrow on the condominium sales. Development of the Parcel and Condominium Project Construction Collins must begin construction of the condominium project at close of escrow and complete it within three years. Compensation to Collins for all off-site, on-site, and building construction will be tied to the limits set by FHA on the general overhead and general requirements that can be charged relative to the multifamily housing development. Collins shall receive no developer's fee for their work on the condominium project. Their total profit will be based upon their 55% share of the "proceeds" on the sale of the condominiums. i Responsibility For Development Costs Collins will be responsible for payment of all costs associated with the development and construction of the condominium project. The Housing Commission will be responsible for payment of all development costs associated with Section 8 rental units. For the off-site improvements (access road, etc.) it will not be possible to factor out the actual and direct costs to the rental project versus the condominium project. Collins will pay 70% of the off-site improvement costs and the Housing Commission will pay 30% of the costs. Sale of the Condominium Units Collins shall be responsible for the sales and marketing of the condominiium units for the actual and direct costs required for this activity. The sales commission portion of these costs paid to Collins shall not exceed 1% of the sales prices. Should Collins choose to contract the sale and marketing of the units to another party, then the — costs shall be equivalent to customary costs paid in San Diego County for similar services. Development of the Rental Project The Housing Commission will be responsible for financing the development and construction of the 120 Section 8 Rental units along with the rental project's 30% share of the off-site improvement costs. Long-term financing of the project will be provided through the issuance of FHA insured, tax-exempt mortgage revenue bonds. These bonds will not be a liability to the City as they will be FHA insured and backed by project revenues only. Collins Development will coordinate development of the rental project for a fee equal to 8% of the rental project development costs. This percentage figure, which is lower than the 10% figure usually approved by HUD, shall also include the builder's profit. The general overhead and general requirement which Collins may charge as general contractor will (as with the condominium project) be limited to FHA limits. 0 Potential Mortgage Shortfall_- Section 8 Project: At the present time, the project has yet to be processed through the Department of Housing & Urban Development to obtain FHA insurance. Initial cost estimates indicated that the supportable mortgage on the project would be $2.7 million short of the cost to develop the project. The following funding sources will be pursued to cover the mortgage shortfall: Projected Equity Requirement: $ 2,769,8ll A. 10% Rent Increase $ (523,174) Subtotal $ 22246,637 B.

INVESTMENT BANNERS/MUNICIPAL BONDS 717 SEVENTEENTH STREET/SUITE 2180 DENVER,COLORADO 80202 (303)572-5500 1 July 23, 1981 Mr. Paul Ireland City of Irvine Manager , Planning Services 17200 Jamborree -Road P. 0. Box 19575 Irvine, California 92713 Dear Paul : Per our discussion today, I have enclosed for you a brief Apartment Loans Program Model as it would apply to Irvine . Using the assumptions as shown , I have come up with a sample mortgage on a 100 unit project . The difference between the mortgage size and the actual cost of the proj-ect would be made up by the developer ' s equity. As we discussed at our meeting a couple of weeks ago, I think we are probably only looking at approximately 70% loans under this program . Based on discussions with numerous developers, however , this seems to fulfill their requirements. I plan to be in Los Angeles the week of July 28, and would very much like to get together with you to further discuss this concept . I do believe that this concept is very responsive to the housing needs of Irvine as discussed in our meeting on July 8 . Sincerely, NEWMAN AND ASSOCIATES, INC. David C.

Under terms of the Program, the Issuer will issue its Multifamily Housing Revenue Bonds (the "Bonds") . After payment of costs of issuance and funding of certain reserves, Bond proceeds will be used to acquire (i) all the right, title and interest of participating lenders (the "Lenders") for a specified number of years (the "Participation Interest") in a pool of seasoned single family mortgages (the "Single Family Mortgage Loans") or (ii) the Lenders' Notes (the "Lenders' Notes") secured by the cashflow from the Single Family Mortgage Loans. The scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Single Family Mortgage Loans will provide approximately 105% coverage of the debt service payments on the Bonds. The Lenders will be required to use the proceeds from the sale of the Participation Interest, or the proceeds from the loans evidenced by the Lenders' Notes, to make construction and permanent loans to the developers (the "Developers") of the Developments to be financed. The principal advantages of the Program over a typical collateralized loans-to-lenders format or a letter of credit or standby collateral purchase commitment loans-to-lenders program are: 1. The amount of Single Family Mortgage Loans which a Lender must initially encumber in connection with the issue is substantially less than (approximately one-half of that) required under a traditional loans-to-lenders format. 2. The Single Family Mortgage Loans are not required to be periodically priced to market throughout the term of the Bond issue. 3. The Program does not require the deposit of additional amounts of collateral in later years as the principal balance of the collateral originally posted declines more rapidly than Bonds are retired. 4. The Bonds are amortized on a level debt basis from the Participation Interest or Lenders' Notes cashflow, which shortens the average life of the Bonds, and thus provides a lower net interest cost which can be passed through to the Developers. r -2- 5. There is no required fee for the payment of the letter of credit or standby collateral purchase commitment and there are no fees for evaluation of the collateral. All Program parameters in this Memorandum are subject to approval or modification by the Issuer prior to the sale of the Bonds. , QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS CONCERNING THE PROGRAM 1. What are the parameters of the Program? The Program is designed to provide proceeds through the issuance of the Issuer's tax-exempt Bonds to acquire, pursuant to a Sale or Lender Loan Agreement (the "Lender Agreement") (a) the Participation Interest, as described above, in the pool of seasoned Single Family Mortgage Loans or (b) the Lenders' Notes, as described above, which will be secured by the Single Family Mortgage Loans. The Lenders are required to use such proceeds to make construction and permanent multifamily loans (the "Multifamily Loans") to Developers for qualified multifamily residential rental housing Developments pursuant to the terms of a Multifamily Loan and Development Development Agreement (the "Development Agreement") . The Lender Agreement sets forth the requirements for the Single Family Mortgage Loans (see Question 2 below) , the terms of the sale or pledge and assignment of the Single Family Mortgage Loans to the Trustee and the obligations of the Lenders regarding the servicing of the Single Family Mortgage Loans. The Development Agreement specifies the qualifications for each Development (see question 3 below) , certain terms of the Multifamily Loans and the regulatory guidelines necesary to ensure that the operation of the Developments complies with the Program. Generally, approximately 84 or 85% of the Bond proceeds will be disbursed by the Trustee to purchase the Participation Interest or fund the Lender Loans, approximately 10% will be used to fund a Bond Debt Service Reserve Fund, approximately 2% will be used to fund a Participation or Lender Loan Reserve Fund and the remainder will be used to pay underwriting discount and costs of issuance. The Bond issue will be structured so that the Bonds, other than those issued to fund the Bond Debt Service Reserve, will be retired on a level debt basis over the term of the Bond issue, which generally will be from 7 to 20 years. Bonds issued to fund the Debt Service Reserve Fund and the Lender Loan Reserve Fund will be retired at the end of the Bond issue from the maturing principal of the investments held in those Funds. 2. What types of Single Family Mortgage Loans are eligible and how will the cashflow from these mortgages be utilized? The Lenders will provide a pool of seasoned, geographically disbursed Single Family Mortgage Loans with a cashflow of principal and interest sufficient to cover approximately 105% of the debt service on the Bonds. Any excess cashflow not utilized for debt service will be returned to the Lenders at the end of each month. The yield on the Single Family Mortgage Loans is required to be less than the yield on the Bonds. Each Single Family Mortgage Loan is required, among other things, to (i) be FHA insured, VA guaranteed, or a conventional loan with an original loan-to-value ratio of 80%, or lower (or insured down to 72% by private mortgage insurance) , (ii) constitute a valid first lien on a single unit residence, (iii) have an original term of 25-30 years, (iv) have been outstanding five years prior to the transfer in the case of conventional loans with an original loan-to-value ratio in excess of 80%, and three years for the other types of loans, (v) have current payments, (vi) have a fixed rate of interest and provide for level monthly payments of principal and interest, and (vii) have a final maturity equal to or greater than the final maturity of the Bonds. 3. What are the terms of the Multifamily Loans and the qualifications of a Development? The Lenders will be required to use the proceeds from the sale of the Participation Interest in the Single Family Mortgage Loans or the proceeds of the Lenders' Notes to provide construction and permanent financing to the Developers for the Developments. Each Lender will be free to structure the terms of its Multifamily Loan with a Developer as it wishes subject to certain yield requirements and subject to compliance with the Issuer's Program Guidelines. Each Development will be required to satisfy the following conditions, among others, subject to compliance with regulations yet to be promulgated under the Mortgage Subsidy Bond Tax Act of 1980, as amended (the "Act") : (a) the Development must be a multifamily rental housing facility consisting of 5 or more dwelling units; (b) the Development must consist of a single structure or multiple structures (which may include duplexes) on a common site, owned by the same person or persons, functionally related and geographically contiguous; (c) each tenant residing in the Development must satisfy the eligibility requirements, if any, imposed by the Issuer in its jurisdiction; (d) at least 20% of the dwelling units in each Development (15% in certain target areas) must be occupied or held available for occupancy by low or moderate income families (currently a family whose annual income does not exceed 80% of area median income for a family of four) for a 20-year period commencing when the development is first available for occupancy; and (e) the Development must be maintained as a multifamily residential rental housing facility for a period of at least 6 years. 4. What are the stages at which documents must be executed? Prior to the execution of the Issuer's purchase contract for the sale of the Bonds, each Lender will be required to execute a Participation Offer with the Issuer to provide a Participation Interest or to obtain a Lender Loan in an amount equal to the amount of Multifamily Loans it intends to make to Developers plus such Lender's pro rata share of costs of issuance. The Lender will be required to deliver with its Participation Offer a Letter of Credit for its pro rata share of costs of issuance, to be returned to it as described below. The Lender must have identified at the time it submits a Participation Offer one or more Developers and Developments; however, the Lender will have the right to substitute Developments for a period of six months from the date of the delivery ,of the Bonds undes .bertain specified conditions. At the Closing of the Bond issue the Issuer and the Lenders will execute the Lender r -4 i Agreement. Within 45 days following delivery of the Bonds, the Trustee will review the Lender's collateral, and the Lender will have 6 days to replace any collateral submitted which does not meet the program requirements, The Trustee will reduce the Lender's Loan and draw upon the Letter of Credit to the extent the Lender fails to deliver qualifying collateral, but will otherwise refund the Lender's Letter of Credit as soon as the collateral has been approved. The Lender is required to have executed a multifamily loan commitment with each Developer within six months following delivery of the Bonds and to have the initial closing of the Multifamily Loan by the end of the ninth month after delivery of the Bonds. The Development Agreement will be executed on or before the initial closing of the Multifamily Loan on a Development. The Developer is required to proceed with due diligence to construct the Development following the construction loan closing. All proceeds from the acquisition of the Single Family Mortgage Loans or Lenders' Notes not disbursed to fund the Multifamily Loans within 36 months from the date of delivery of the Bonds will be used to redeem Bonds. 5. What are the fees paid by the Developer(s)? Each Developer will pay the usual and customary origination fees in the community at the time of the origination of both the construction and permanent loans. it is presently anticipated that such fees will not exceed 2% of the Multifamily Loan at the commencement of construction and 2% of the Multifamily Loan at the closing of the permanent loan. 6. What are the fees payable by the Lenders? Each Lender will be required to deposit with the Trustee a Letter of Credit of approximately 3-4% prior to the execution of the Issuer's purchase contract for the Bonds. The Letter of Credit will be drawn upon as described in Question 4 above in the event one or more of the Single Family Mortgage Loans pledged by it fails to satisfy the criteria described under Question 2 above. 7. What are the fees which the Lender may charge or earn? The principal sources of profit to the Lenders from participating in the Program are (1) the normal construction and permanent loan origination fees which the Lender may charge on its Multifamily Loan as described in Question 5 above, (ii) the investment earnings in excess of the Bond yield which the Lender may retain from investing the proceeds from its sale of a Participation Interest or the proceeds from its Lenders' Note, from date of delivery of the Bonds until such proceeds are actually drawn upon by the Developer to fund the Multifamily Loan as described in Question 4, and (iii) the spread between the Bond yield and the interest rate on the Multifamily Loan to the Developer, as described in Question 9 below, to the extent that spread is not utilized to amortize bond discount and costs of issuance. Each Lender will also be allowed to retain from the cashflow, on the Single Family Mortgage Loans a monthly servicing fee equal to approximately 1/12th of 3/Sth of It of the outstanding principal amount of the Single Family Mortgage Loans provided or pledged by it. Finally, each Lender will be entitled to retain a pro'rata portion of any profit realized from the investment of the Debt t' • -5- Service Reserve Fund and the Participation Interest or Lender's Loan Reserve Fund at rates higher than the yield on the Bonds, after deduction of certain expenses of the Issuer, the Trustee and a Program Administrator (if necessary) . 8. Does the Lender retain any interest in the Single Family Mortgage Loans? Yes, each Lender receives the reserve cashflow of approximately 5% to the extent not needed to pay debt service on the Bonds. In addition, each Lender receives the remaining principal amount of the Single Family Mortgage Loans sold or pledged by it after the Bonds are retired. 9. What will be the interest rate on the Multifamily Loans? The interest rate on the Multifamily Loans will be determined upon the sale of the Bonds. The interest rate on the Multifamily Loans will be such that its yield does not exceed the yield on the Bonds by more than 1.5% (one and one half percentage points) for purposes of the federal arbitrage regulations. Generally, these regulations will permit a rate on the multifamily loan approximately 2.0% (two percentage points) higher than the yield on the Bonds, after taking into account approximately 0.5% (one half a percentage point) generally needed to amortize certain discounts and costs. 10. What are the obligations of the Lender to replace or repurchase a Single_ Family Mortgage Loan? In the event a Single Family Mortgage Loan does not comply with the Program eligibility 'requirements, the Lender must replace the Single Family Mortgage Loan or the Trustee will draw upon its Letter of Credit as described in Question 9 above. In the event that a Single Family Mortgage Loan prepays or there is a default under the terms of the Single Family Mortgage Loan, the Lender may, but is not obligated to, replace such Single Family Mortgage Loan. 11. What are the eligibility requirements of Developers? it is anticipated that the Issuer will place no restrictions whatsoever on eligible Developers; however, each Developer must be acceptable to a Lender. 12. Must Developments be insured by the FHA or have Housing Assistance Payments Agreements or Contracts? No. It is anticipated that all Developments financed under the Program will be conventional and not insured; however, insured developments may be eligible for financing. 13. Which Lenders are eligible to participate in the Program? Any state or federal savings and loan association, state banking corporation or national banking association or other mortgage lender which has a portfolio of eligible Single Famj,1X Mortgage Loans and which has the authority to make loans for multifamily housing in the jurisdiction of the Issuer may participate in the Program. '.� • -6- • a 14. What is the size of the Bond issue? ' The Bond issue size will be dependent upon the request for funding by Lenders and the allocation of funds by the issuer. It is generally expected that the Issuer will maintain the right to reduce the size of its Bond Issue if it determines that the number of units to be financed under the Program will result in an over-abundant supply of rental housing in its jurisdiction which could lead to financial difficulties for local builders and lenders. 15. Is there a minimum or maximum project size? No. 16. Is there a minimum or maximum mortgage loan size? No. 17. May a Lender participate in the equity of the Development? A Lender may participate in the equity in the Development to the extent of the fair market value of its contribution. In no event can any paticipation in such equity cause the yield on the Multifamily Loans to exceed the limitations described in the response to Question 9 above. 18. What Development costs are eligible for financing under the issue? At least 90% of all the costs financed with proceeds from the Bonds must be for capital items and must not have been paid or incurred prior to passage of a resolution by the Issuer accepting each Development. If, prior to this resolution, the Developer has expended funds for a Development for land acquisition or any other reason, and this expenditure cannot be included in the allowance for noncapital items expended prior to the inducement resolution, then these costs may not be financed with Bond proceeds. Of course, such costs may be included as a part of the Developer's equity in the Project for purposes of satisfying any maximum loan-to-value ratio imposed by its Lender. . 19. Can funds from the Bond issue be used to finance projects already completed? This will depend in part upon the law in the issuer's jurisdiction. in some jurisdictions, bond proceeds may be used to acquire a completed Development by a new owner unrelated to the party who owned the Development prior to the passage of the inducement resolution on the Development. In other jurisdictions, funds from the Bond issue must be used to finance only new developments or substantially rehabilitated developments located in the jurisdiction of the issuer. in no event may Bond proceeds be disbursed to a Developer simply to refinance a previously completed Development owned by it. 20. Can funds from the Bond issue be used for construction only? No, proceeds from the issue must be used for both construction and permanent financing. The purpose of the Program is to provide permanent rental housing for residents of the jurisdiction of the Issuer. Under no circumstances can any loan financed- with proceeds of the issue be prepaid within 6 years of issuance. Furthermore, prepayments for the next several years may carry penalties. The purpose of this is to discourage owners from using low rate financing under the Program to build units designed for owner occupancy. 21. What is the required mix of units? There is no unit mix required. A Developer may build as many units of any style as he desires as allowed under applicable building codes. However, each unit must be a complete living unit, containing a kitchen and bathroom and certain other basics and amenities. 22. What are the tenant certification requirements? At the time of initial occupancy, each tenant in a low or moderate income unit will be required to sign a form which certifies that his income is within the limits established under the Program. Compliance with these and any tenant eligibility requirements imposed by the Issuer will be monitored by the Trustee or a Program Administrator. 23. Must tenants occupying a designated low or moderate income unit be evicted from the unit if his/her income increases beyond the low or moderate income level after initial occupancy? No. A Development is in compliance and tenants are eligible for occupany provided that their income at the time of initial occupany was within that range allowed by the Issuer. If the income of a person residing in a 20% set-aside unit increases, the unit will still constitute part of the 20% set- aside for low or moderate income families. 24. Which party makes the request for funds allocation from the Issuer? The request for a funds allocation must be made by the Lender. FINANCING PARTICIPANTS Public .

A PHASE IV REPORT HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT CITY OF ORANGE April , 1982 rPrepared by: WILLDAN ASSOCIATES 1745 Orangewood Avenue Suite 210 Orange, California 92668 (714) 978-6185 CHAPTER 2 HOUSING PROGRAMS (The following will be added as a Subsection to the Chapter entitled "Housing Programs.) • o 2.1 POTENTIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS FEDERAL AND STATE OPTIONS Both the Federal and State governments have provided relatively large amounts of funding assistance to local California communities in efforts of improving housing opportunities at the lower and moderate household income levels. How- ever, several factors have either diminished or threaten to reduce the avail- ability of funding to most communities: 1. The passage of the Jarvis-Gann Property Tax Initiative has reduced fund- ing availability at the State level . While the State Department of Hous- ing and Community Development and the California Housing Finance Agency continue to provide housing assistance to local communities that assis- tance has been reduced to administrative assistance, primarily. Although limited funding continues to be provided for active housing programs the level of involvement has been significantly curtailed. 2. The Federal budget has been operating with an increasingly large deficit and in an effort to close the gap between revenues and expenditures the Reagan Administration has proposed elimination or reduced expenditures for numerous housing related assistance programs. Moreover, proposal of "New Federalism" may eventually eliminate direct federal participa- tion in local housing by transferring such activities to the state governments. 3. California and U.S. economic conditions have been waning since 1973 (oil price increase) while the inflation rate, including the cost of housing, has seen many significant increases. The net result has been that affordable housing is no longer the plight of only the very low- and low-income households. Virtually every economic segment of the community has been affected. While the lower income segments of the community remain the most needy of all , many moderate and 'higher income households, newly formed households, and senior citizens are realizing the effects of such conditions and the high cost of housing. The significance of this factor relates once again to Federal and State assistance programs which primarily focus on lower income segments of the community. Given no other source of assistance a community which views current housing shortages as a serious short- and long-term strain on the community's economic development, must pursue housing objectives seriously and with a maximum effort. Nonetheless, the City of Orange Housing Program should not overlook the avail- ability of housing programs at either the State or Federal levels. A list of potential Federal and State housing programs is contained in the Appendix. This list reflects current programs legislated at the State or Federal levels. Where available, information relative to funding has been provided. -35- LOCAL OPTIONS Local governments have been granted substantial authority in the administra- tion of local planning to the extent that virtually all cities regulate, through zoning, the location, bulk, height, setback, and in some cases archi- tectural style of new residential development. However, many communities are enforcing zoning, subdivision, or other similar development management tools which were created and successfully used during growth and development periods which thrived between the 1960' s and 1970's. Rising concerns for maintaining environmental resources, depletion of non- renewable energy resources, declines in the GNP and other economic indicators, and the continuously rising cost of providing shelter are all factors which have attributed to changes in lifestyle. Keeping such changes in mind, the City should consider the reevaluation of adopted land use and housing policy, zoning ordinances, and other implementa- tion tools which were enacted during significantly different economic condi- tions. Opportunities to affect housing production and ultimately the hous- ing market at the local level may be provided at three primary levels: 1. Policy (General Plan) - Redesignation of land uses and land use densi- ties to reflect current needs and objectives for future growth. 2. Ordinance - Amendments to the zoning map and ordinance to implement the genes plan and minimize procedural and administrative review of devel- opment applications. 3. City Support and Assistance - Local interest in support of City housing objectives may be assisted by the City. Local volunteer groups, non- profit sponsors, or nonprofit development corporations may be assisted by the City in varying degrees including: surplus land donation; do- nated staff time; and overall project coordination and support.

The total payments made on a 9% fixed rate loan for the illustrated 5 year period would have been $7 , 830 .96 MORE than the total payments made on the ' SMART ' loan. This factor must be considered when looking at the above example, plus , of course, the fact that the b'uyer possibly COULD NOT HAVE QUALIFIED for the 9% fixed rate loan. Now we must also consider the factor of housing appreciation during the period from December 1975 to December 1980 . Housing values increased by 79 . 92% during that time period . This means that our buyer, assuming . that the original sales price of the home was $100 ,000 . would have a home worth $179 , 920 ** with a• 1•pan balance of• $97;567 . 19 (54% LTV) . Now, let 's consider the fact that we are currently at HIGH levels of T-Bill rates . There could not be a BETTER time to consider the benefits of the ' SMART ' loan. • In fact , the higher the T-Bill rates at closing, the better the buyers opportunity to participate in ACCELERATED amortization due to lower rates later while still retaining the advantage of payments based on BELOW MARKET QUALIFYING RATES ! ! ! !

Now, let ' s consider the fact that we are currently at HIGH levels of T-Bill rates . There could not be a BETTER time to consider the benefits of the ' SMART' loan. ' In fact, the higher the T-Bill rates at closing , the better the buyers opportunity to participate in ACCELERATED amortization due to lower rates later while still retaining the advantage of payments based on BELOW MARKET QUALIFYING RATES No matter how you look at it, this IS a ' SMART' loan ** Home appreciation statistics are based on figures compiled by Regional Data Associates , Berkeley, Ca. and are based on existing and new housing value increases . * See reverse for history of 6 month T-Sill auction results .

On May 6 the Planning Commission held a Study Session to discuss increased residential densities. As a result of that meeting North Ford was recommended for density increase. At the May 24 City Council meeting the City Council initiated the recommended General Plan Amendment. 2. Four additional sites are currently being considered for density increase as part of General Plan Amendment 81-2. 3. Possible density increases for six additional sites remain to be considered. B) The primary focuses of this meeting will be on Housing Financing Alternatives. 1. Financing programs offered by the private industry will be discussed by Kate Keller frm Newport Beach Balboa Savings and Faye Wilson from Security Pacific National Bank. 2. Mortgage Bond Programs will be discussed by Robert Smart and Al Wanamaker from Kevin Leventhal and Co. 3. Community Development Block Grant program and the Section 8 program will be discussed by Ward Connerly of Connerly and Associates. C) Discussion of Specific Funding Programs, their applications to specific projects, and discussion of increased residential densities. City Council&ting May 24, 1982 Agenda Item No. 1-1 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH TO: City Council FROM: Planning Department SUBJECT: Proposed General Plan Amendment (Discussion) Proposed amendment to the Newport Beach General Plan to increase the allowable number of residential units on the North Ford Site and to designate a park northerly of Eastbluff Drive extended. INITIATED BY: The City of Newport Beach Suggested Action If desired, a) Initiate the requested General Plan Amendment and direct staff to set this item for public hearing before the Planning Commission after preparation of any necessary environmental documents; or b) Defer action on the proposed amendment to future hearing sessions based on Planning Department workloads and project priorities. Background City Council Policy Q-1 allows the Planning Commission to recommend initiation of General Plan Amendments to the City Council. Consistent with this policy, the Planning Commission discussed the proposed General Plan Amendment at the May 6, 1982 meeting and recommended initiation by the City Council. Discussion The Housing Element of the Newport Beach General Plan states: "The Planning Commission shall conduct public hearings designed to identify which of the non-cemmitted sites will be appropriate for increased levels of allowable density without engendering adverse environmental and other ccnuunity conditions." Consistent with the above, it is proposed that a General Plan Amendment be initiated by the City of Newport Beach to increase the allowed number of residential units on the North Ford Planned Community site as well as designate a park on the site northerly of Eastbluff Drive extended. TO: City Coil - 2 • It is proposed that the existing General Plan limitation of 120 residential units be changed to allow "Multiple-Family Residential" uses on the ±35 gross acre site at a density not to exceed 25 du's per "buildable acre". It is estimated that there are approximately 29.5 buildable acres on the site. Staff will prepare additional information on a range of density alternatives not to exceed 25 du's per buildable acre. Included in the additional infonmation will be a discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of ownership vs. rental for this project. As part of the proposal, staff is suggesting that a ±6 acre park site be designated in the area northerly of Eastbluff Drive. The stipulations of the settlement agreement for the lawsuit resulting from the disapproval of Tentative Tract No. 10019 (North Ford) , prohibits The Irvine Company from requesting an increase from the 120 dwelling units permitted on the North Ford site. Consequently, any proposal to amend the General Plan for this area must be initiated by the City. It appears that, within the density range of 20 to 25 du's per buildable acre, The Irvine Ccgmny can offer "market rate" ownership and rental units that would be affordable for "moderate" and "middle" income families. Additionally, it may be possible to construct som units approaching the "upper end" of the affordability range for "Icw Income" families. 1982 General Plan Amendments On March 12, 1982 General Plan Amendment 81-1 (Banning) was approved by the City Council. General Plan Amendment 81-2 (CalTrans West, 5th Ave. , Big Canyon 16, Block 400 Newport Center, Campus Drive) will begin the public hearing process before the Planning Comission in approximately 30 days. General Plan Amendment 81-3 (Marriott Hotel) was initiated by the City Council on February 22, 1982. General Plan Amendment 82-1 (Adkinson, Irvine Company) was recotmended for initiation by the Planning Comussion on February 18, 1982. At the March 22, 1982 City Council meeting action was deferred on the proposed amendment to future hearing sessions based on Planning Department workloads and project priorities. Section 65361 (a) of the Government Code limits the frequency of General Plan Amendments to 3 times per year. Since Newport Beach is a Charter City we are not legally required to comply with this section of the Government Code, however Council Policy Q-1 reflects the general intent of the City to conform to this provision. Section 65361(b) excludes from the 3 time per year requirement, projects where 25% of the units will be made available for low or moderate income families. TO: city 0041 - 3 • It is possible that a General Plan Amendment for North Ford would be the 4th Amendment for 1982, however the project in its currently contemplated configuration would probably be consistent with the State Legislature's intent [65361(b)] to allow more than 3 Amendments per year for projects which will provide low or moderate income housing.

RECOMMENDED TO CITY Commissioner Beek asked why this one parcel is being COUNCIL singled out for consideration of a density increase at THAT THE this time. Mr. Lenard stated that some of the Planning GENERAL Commission members and City Council members have PLAN expressed an interest on the North Ford site during the AMENDMENT past year for a possible general plan amendment. He gE further stated that this particular site would be INITIATED considered to have fewer, serious environmental constraints. In response to a question posed by Commissioner Beek, Mr. Lenard stated that the property owner, The Irvine Company, has not requested the general plan amendment. Mr. Lenard stated that staff has suggested the general plan amendment process for this site. Commissioner Allen asked how the 25 percent density increase, as referred to in the Housing Element, relates to the proposed general plan amendment. Mr. Lenard stated that the proposed density increase on the North Ford site would more than satisfy the five year goal as set by the Housing Element. He further stated that this would not preclude the Commission from considering other sites. Commissioner Allen suggested that the Commission receive information relating to legislation which affects the other undeveloped sites, and how a density increase on this site will fulfill the commitment City-wide on the undeveloped sites for affordable housing. -1- COMMISSIONERS May 6, 1982 MINUTES � r � a � m N.

I have written letters to the participants of the May 6 meeting thanking them for their contributions to the program and requesting their attendance at the June 10 meeting where the issue of Finance was to be discussed. Please follow-up and telephone each of the participants to verify whether or not they will be able to attend. You should talk to Bernard Manascalco at The Irvine Company about any suggestions for additional participants. Be sure to prepare all the necessary legal and display ad notices. .r I would suggest you prepare an outline as soon as possible so that we could discuss has to 'structure the discussion and the staff report. I think specifically that you need to include information in the report describing the various financing alternatives. It would also be helpful to think up some addi. ion s who would be particularly qualified to address the financing alternatives. The staff report will go out on Friday, June 4, therefore, I would like a smooth (as opposed to rough) draft by Wednesday, June 2. I am attending an all day conference on June 3, so we will have to schedule our time carefully.

As the meetings regarding density increases progress, additional information will be gathered and provided to the Planning Commission. PLANNING DEPA JAMES D. HEWICIM, Director BY CRAIG T. 'L ' Senior r er CTB:nma Attachment Site Discussion Westbay Site No. 1. The Westbay site is a large vacant parcel of approximately 71 acres. It is located at the intersection of Irvine Avenue and University Drive. The General Plan designation for the site is low density residential with a requirement that 750 of the units be transferred to Newport Center. The Land Use Plan of the Local Coastal Program designates the site for a mixture of recreational and environmental open space uses and low-density residential uses at a maximum of 4 dwelling units per buildable acre, with 75% of the allowable units transferred to Newport Center. A County owned property located within the site is designated for recreational and environmental open space. Also located within the site is a City owned park which is designated for recreational and environmental open space and governmental, educational and institutional use to permit the construction of a Natural History Museum. The General Plan will be amended to reflect the designations contained in the Land Use Plan of the Local Coastal Program. The current zoning designation is Planned Community however, no development plan exists at this time. The 6.4 acre County owned parcel used for flood control purposes is located at the southern end of the site. The 6.0 acre City park also located within the site is near the extension of Monte Vista Avenue. This park was dedicated as a part of the requirements for construction of the Sea Island Condominium project. A ten foot wide relocatable pedestrian and bike easement extends along the bluff top with two access easements from Irvine Avenue and a third from University Drive. The east side of the site borders the Upper Newport Bay Ecological Reserve and a wetland area which originates at Irvine Avenue opposite 23rd Street follows an oblique swale across the site to the bay. Riparian vegetation located in the upper reaches of the swale intergrades with other species to form a freshwater marsh. To a large extent this area is part of the 6.4 acre County owned flood control channel. According to the most recent information available a large portion of the northern corner of the site is within the 65 CNEG noise contour created by jet noise. It is estimated that 161 dwelling units would be allowed on the site using the maximum low density of 4 dwelling units per buildable acre. After 75% of the units (121 dwelling units) are transferred to Newport Center 40 dwelling units remain as the total development for Westbay. The City's General Plan Policy on "Location of Structures" would prohibit structures from being built on natural slope areas greater than two to one (2:1) and greater than 25 feet high, requiring the 40 units to be clustered on the remaining areas of the site. There are no immediate proposals for development. Newporter North Site No. 3. This site is approximately 85.5 acres in size and is located between Bayside Drive and Jamboree Road north of the Newporter Inn. The General Plan shows 77.5 acres of the site for low density residential development with 25% of the allowable units transferable to either Newport Center or North Ford at the option of the property owner. It also requires that the structures be clustered to accommodate archaeological sites and marsh sites. Eight acres located at the southern end of the site, along Bayside Drive, adjacent to the Newporter Inn are designated for Recreation and Marine Commercial uses. A small area of the site is shown for Recreational and Environmental open Space because it is a sensitive habitat area. The Land Use Plan of the Local Coastal Program has the same designations as the General Plan. In addition to the environmental open space area a public bikeway/walkway is proposed for the site. The western boundary of the site is located adjacent to the Upper Newport Bay Ecological Reserve. At the maximum low density of four dwelling units per buildable acre approximately 212 dwelling units would be allowed on the site. If 25% of the units (53 units) are transferred off the site the remaining 159 units would be located on site. There are no imrediate plans for development. Fifth Avenue Parcels Site No. 6 The Fifth Avenue Parcels consist of three separate parcels identified as Sites A, B, and C. Site A is approximately 6.5 acres in size and is located at the intersection of MacArthur Boulevard and 5th Avenue. The General Plan designates Site A for low density residential development which is a maximum of 4 dwelling units per buildable acre. It is estimated that 25 dwelling units would be allowed on the site. Since the site is located near the intersection of Pacific Coast Highway and MacArthur Boulevard traffic noise may effect the location of the permitted dwelling units. The Irvine CoITpany has requested a General Plan Amendment to increase Site A to medium density residential; however, it has been deferred. Site A is zoned Planned Ccmnmity, but no development plan exists. Site B is 9.6 acres in size and is located on the northwest side of the intersection of Marguerite Avenue and 5th Avenue. The General Plan also designates Site B for law density residential development. It is estimated that 6.8 acres of the site are buildable acres. Therefore, 27 dwelling units would be allowed on the site. General Plan Amendment 81-2 which is currently being processed by the City would redesignate the site for medium density residential development. This would increase the allowed number of units by 41 increasing the total dwelling units to 68. The General Plan Amendment is proposed for hearing in mid-year 1982. Site B is zoned R-1-B. Site C is 13.2 acres in size and is located along 5th Avenue, east of Marguerite Avenue. The General Plan designates Site C for low density residential development. It is estimated that 10.0 acres of the site are buildable acres. At 4 dwelling units per acre 40 dwelling units would be allowed on the site. General Plan Amendment 81-2 also includes a request to change Site C to medium density residential. A\General Plan redesignation to medium density residential would increase the al owed number of units by 60, increasing the total dwelling units to 100. Site is zoned R-1-B. Freeway Rds located Site No. 7. This site is approximately 10.9 acres in size an t i 1 ated on the southwest side of the >n er section of Ford Road and MacArthur Boulevard. The General Plan currently designates the site for recreational and environmental open space. General Plan Amendment 78-2 allocated an additional 100 units to Big Canyon with the requirement that they be built at a location other than area 10. Freeway reservation - west is the only location within Big Canyon that could accommodate 100 dwelling units. This site is currently being processed as part of General Plan Amendment 81-2 to redesignate the site for medium density residential development. It is estimated that 8.7 acres of the site are buildable acres. Therefore, 87 dwelling units would be allowed. The General Plan Amendment is proposed for hearing mid-year 1982. This site is zoned Planned Community. Freeway Reservation - East Site No. 8. This site is approximately 25 acres in size and is located on the southeast side of the intersection of Ford Road and MacArthur Boulevard. The General Plan designates this site for low density residential development which is a maximum of 4 dwelling units per acre. It is estimated that 76 dwelling units would be allowed on this site. This site is zoned Planned Community, however no development plan exists for this site and there are no immediate plans for development. Baywood Expansion Site No. 9. The Baywood site -is 10.6 acres in size and is located at the northeast corner of MacArthur Boulevard and San Joaquin Hills Road. This site is adjacent to the existing Baywood Apartments. The General Plan designates this site for medium density residential development with a maximum of 68 dwelling units. It is estimated that 7.3 acres of the site are buildable acres. At the maximun medium density of 10 dwelling units per acre 73 units would have been allowed on the site. This site is zoned Planned Community. A planned community text, traffic study, resubdivision and environmental document were approved by the City, however construction is not currently contemplated. North Ford Site No. 22. This site is 68.0 acres in size and is located on the northeast side of the intersection of Jamboree Road and Bison Avenue. The General Plan designates the site for a mixture of uses which include general industrial uses, administrative, professional and financial ccnmrcial uses, retail and service commercial uses, governmental, educational and institutional facilities and residential uses. The non-residential development permitted by the general plan includes 295,000 square feet of industrial uses and 28,500 square feet of retail uses. The retail uses are subject to a traffic phasing plan. The current permitted residential development is limited to 120 units. The estimated residential portion of the site is ±35 gross acres. There are no known major environmental factors that would effect development. The residential development may be near a freeway offramp which could effect the location of structures. Newport Center Site No. 26. Newport Center is a 530 acre regional center divided into several large blocks by the internal traffic circulation system. These blocks are developed with a variety of land uses which include both residential and non-residential development. The General Plan addresses the site as a single unit. Under the General Plan the remaining allowable development includes 66,350 square feet of office, 58,750 square feet of conuercial, 650 theater seats and 505 residential units. Allocation of the remaining development will involve the intensification of currently developed sites as well as the development of vacant sites. The sites that are currently vacant are as follows: Location Acres Avocado and MacArthur 10.0 Newport Village 25.0 Corporate Plaza West 10.0 Pacific Coast Highway Frontage 10.0 Pacific Coast Highway and Jamboree 9.0 Block 600 10.0 Residential development in Newport Center may be near enough to sources of traffic noise to effect the location of structures.

Background During September of 1980, the State approved AB 2853 (FCOS) . The bill amended Section 65302(c) of the California Government Code by requiring that local housing elements ,be in conformance with Article 10.6. Article 10.6 contains the requirements for the content of a housing element and sets a housing element conformance deadline of October 1, 1981. The City of Newport Beach amended the Housing Element of the General Plan on September 28, 1981,, in accordance with Article 10.6. The new Housing Element consists of four sections: Section One presents an analysis of the Com ni ity Housing Market. Section Two is the .housing needs assessment portion, of the element. Section Three discusses the constraints to housing production. Section Four contains the housing program/strategy the City intends to use to provide housing in the City of Newport Beach. Section Four consists of three parts. The first part entitled, "Housing Program, Goals and Policies", discusses the general goals and policies the City has adopted regarding the production of housing. The second part called, "Program Objectives" lists 13 specific Objectives designed to meet the housing needs of the City. The third part, called "Performance Objectives", is a quantification of the projected results of the 13 program objectives. HOUSING ELEMENT IMPLEMENTATION PROGRESS REPORT The new Housing Element has been in effect for six months. Since the Housing Element's adoption .the City has taken numerous actions to implement the "Program Objectives" contained in the Housing Element. These actions have been carefully considered to ensure the City's carmitment to its general Goals and Policies and progress towards meeting the "Performance Objectives" contained in the Element. Following is a discussion of some of these actions. TO: Planning sion - 2 Improved Housing Production. Housing Element Objective 1 is aimed at prawting and facilitating the housing industry's ability to produce housing. As stated in the implementation plan, the Planning Department is monitoring the housing delivery system and Robert Lenard, Advance Planning Adnunistrator, is acting as staff liaison to the housing industry. To date two meetings involving City Council Menbers, Planning Cannissioners, City Staff, developers, realtors, lenders, employers and the local press have been held, This meeting will be the 3rd such effort the City has undertaken under Objective 1. The semi-annual report to the City Council, concerning the housing industry with possible suggestions for actions to be taken by the City, will be prepared and submitted in the near future. Condam nium Conversion. The Housing Element cants the City to preservation of existing rental units in projects of five or more units by restricting conversion of such units to condominiums thru maintenance of the vacancy rate provision. In addition, it is intended to expand opportunities for first time buyers and encourage private rehabilitation of the housing stock through homeownership by removing the vacancy rate provision for condominium conversions of 4 or less units. After four public hearings the Planning Camussion reeamiended approval of proposed revisions to the Condominium Conversion Ordinance. The proposed ordinance restricts the conversion of projects of five or more units when the vacancy rate is less than 5% and permits the conversion of rental projects of 4 or less units. Several concerns involving the structure and site, status of the tenant and rate at which rental units convert are also covered by the proposed ordinance. The City Council has set the proposed Condominium Ordinance for public hearing on June 14, 1982, Mobile Hare Park Zoning. The Housing Element ccatmits the City to the adoption of a Mobile Hare Park Zone in order to preserve an existing source of affordable housing. On January 11, 1982 the City adopted a Mobile Hare Park zoning district. The Planning C=Assion has set for public hearing on June 10, 1982 the application of the Mobile Home Park zone to the De Anza Mobile Hans Park. This will result in the preservation of 291 mobile home units. CkTTMUA FOR DENSITY INCREASES HousingElement. Housing Element Objective 3 is directed at promoting the developmenan increased level of new housing production. This objective is to be iplemented by holding public hearings to identify which non-cam-atted sites are appropriate for increased residential density, and amending the Land Use Element to effect the density increases. As a "Performance Objective" the City has projected an overall increase of 25% (290 units) on these sites. These units can be located on any of the sites, or clustered on one site. Government Code. Section 65915 of the Government Code states, that when a developer of housing agrees to construct at least 25 percent of the total units of a housing developmeht for families of law or moderate incase (incases less than 120% of median income) a City shall enter into an agreement with the developer to either grant a density bonus or provide not less than two other bonus incentives for the project. TO: Planning CamNsion - 3 For purposes of the requirements established by Chapter 4.3. , "density bonus" means a density increase of at least 25 percent over the otherwise allowable residential density under the applicable zoning ordinance. Other bonus incentives include the following: 1) Exemption frcm (Section 66477 of the Subdivision Map Act) requirements of park dedication and certain other land dedications. 2) Construction of the infrastructure by the City. 3) Federal or State grant moneys. 4) Exemption from provisions of local ordinances which may cause indirect increases in housing costs. These requirements are not intended to preclude any greater density increase or incentives. Senate Bill 626 (Mello) . Section 65590(d) of the Government Code states that new housing developments constructed within the coastal zone shall, where feasible, provide housing units for persons and families of low or moderate income (incomes less than 120% of the median income) . If it is not feasible to provide the housing in the proposed new housing development the developer shall be required, if feasible, to do so at another location in the City either within the Coastal Zone or with three miles thereof. In order to assist in providing the housing units density bonuses or other incentives must be offered. "Feasible" is defined as capable of being accomplished in a successful manner within a reasonable period of time, taking into account economic, environmental, social, and technical factors. Determinations of "feasibility" can be reviewed pursuant to the Code of Civil Procedures. Unit Size. Currently the City's Zoning Code permits -a minimum unit size of 600 square feet. A benefit of reduced unit size might be a reduction in the original sales price. Additionally, reduced unit size might have a secondary benefit of retaining the reduced price at the time of resale. However, there is a point at which further reductions in unit size will not result in further reductions in ori.gir�al construction cost, but may effect the rate of appreciation for resale. ' This type of determination can only be made on a project by project basis. Since most of the major undeveloped sites .are zoned P.C., any reduction in minimum unit size can be accomplished through the adoption or amendment of the Planned Community Text for a particular site. Residential Population Characteristics. Statistical information collected by the 1976 specigl census shows that the persons per household factors in high density projects are significantly lower than those in medium or law density developments. Additionally, projects with the smaller units have the lowest person per household factors. Therefore, an increase in density does ,not always result in proportionate increase in population. Park Newport ApartWnts at 24.5 dwelling units per acre has a persons per household factor of 1.43 and a total population of 1,732 people. Oakwood Apartments has a total population of 1,819, a 1.38 person per household factor and is developed at 45 dwelling units per acre. Newport Crest at 12.6 dwelling units per acre has a person per household factor of 2.4 persons and an estimated total population of 1,000. Lower density development like that found in Westcliff M: Planning Caosion 4 " :'^- or East Bluff (approximately 6 dwelling units/acre) have a person per household factor of 3.5. Park Newport Apartments at 2 times the density of Newport Crest has only 1.8 times the total population. Oakwood Apartments at 4 times the density of Newport Crest has only 1.8 times the total population of Newport Crest, due to the large number of smaller units. When compared to lower density develcpmnts the density of the two apartment projects are 4 and 8 times greater while the total population is only 3 times greater. Approval of a higher density project with an appropriate unit size mix could minimize population .related impacts. These impact "trade-offs" would have to be evaluated when a project was being proposed in order that unit size, their percentage of the project mix and density were known. City Densities. The following table is a list of the various densities found in the City. Table of City Densities PRo= ACREAGE UNITS DENSITY Newport Crest 37.3 476 12.6 Lido Condominiums 1.1 54 49.1 Oakwood 32.3 1,450 44.9 Mariners Square 6.2 114 18.4 Park Newport 53.2 11302 24.5 Promontory Point 32.8 520 15.8 Haywood Apartment 27.4 310 11.3 Grenville Apartments 10.16 67 6.59 Old Corona del Mar* 190.00 31664 19.3 Balboa island* 80.0 2,614 23.1 Balboa Peninsula* 140.0 31434 24.5 West Newport* 225.0 41409 19.6 * estimates based on available data. TYPES OF HOUSING An additional residential consideration is unit . The Housing g Element identifies rental housing as a significant source of housing for law- and moderate-income households. In order to provide more rental units the Housing Element has a goal of exploring the feasibility of incentives to increase the construction of new rental units. One possible program that the City might wish to consider is control over the form of housing ownership. This could be acomplished through a rental housing zone. This type of zone is most useful in cities where rental housing is in short supply and rent rates are consequently high. The 1980 Federal Census shows that Newport Beach's housing stock consists of 47.2% rental units with a median rent of $443 per month. An important consideration in the composition of a community is the balance of ownership and rental housing. Staff has contacted other jurisdictions regarding rental zoning however, no adopted rental zones were discovered. Y' • TO: Planning Callsion - 5 It should be pointed out that the City's park dedication ordinance does not i require dedication of park land or payment of in-lieu fees for the development of rental projects. Density increases as previously discussed could also be an incentive for the construction of rental housing. SITES MR, nKMF SED DENSITY CONSIDERATION Public Owned Sites. Sites such as those owned by the Newport-Mesa School District might be potential sites for residential development if the Newport-Mesa Board of Education determines that they no longer wish to hold an under-utilized site. However,' Ray Schnierer, Business Manager of the Newport-Mesa School District told staff that the Board of Education has chosen to lease under-utilized schools' on a short term basis in order to generate revenues and preserve the schools for possible future district use rather than selling the sites or converting them permanently to other uses. If the School Board did decide to dispose of any of their sites it would require a public hearing before the Board of Education and a public bid sale. The City owns several parcels of land which could be evaluated as potential sites for future residential development. These sites would require evaluation in terms of their current uses, existing use agreements, size, location and suitability for residential use. There are also State owned properties in the City which might be appropriate for residential development. These sites would also require proper evaluation prior to being committed to residential land uses. If the Planning Commission wishes to consider any of the publicly arced parcels for residential land uses, staff should be directed to prepare additional information on these sites. Privately vaned Sites. The following residentially designated sites are identified in the Housing Element as sites to be considered for increased density. Based on an overall 25% density increase the 1,161 total units would increase by 290 units to a new total of 1,451 units. Site # Name Acres Intensity Units 1 Westbay 71 4 du/a 10 3 Newporter North 88 212 6 Fifth Avenue Parcels 35 to108 7 Freeway Reservation West 0 10 du/a 100 8 Freeway Reservation East 25 4 du/a 76 22 North Ford 37.5 120 26 Newport Center 40.0 505 TOTAL 296.5 1,161 The Bayview Landing site is designated for residential uses as an alternate to Recreational and Marine Camercial uses in the Land Use Element of the General Plan and included among the Housing Element sites for density increases. However, this site has been effectively eliminated as a potential residential T0: Planning CaSion - 6 '= site by the City Council approval of the conditionally certified Local Coastal Program, Land Use Plan, and is no longer eligible for consideration. If the Planning Commission wishes to add other sites to the list of those eligible for density increases this is the appropriate time to give that direction to staff. One site the Planning Com fission might wish to add to the list of sites to be considered for a density increase is the Haywood expansion site. The Baywood expansion site (9 acres) was previously shown for Multiple-Family Residential development (maximum 140 units) with the intent that the Baywood Apartments would be expanded at a density similar to to the existing project (11.3 dwelling units per gross acre) . General Plan Amendment 79-1 reduced the site density to 10 dwelling units per buildable acre with a maximum of 68 dwelling units. Since this site could be approved for and developed with rental housing increased residential density on this site might result in the construction of new rental units. This site is zoned Planned Ccm=dty. Additional Information. Additional information evaluating the undeveloped sites will be forwarded to the Planning Commission prior to the May 6 Study Session.

Senior P er CTB:nma Attachment Site Discussion Westbay Site No. 1. The Westbay site is a large vacant parcel of approximately 71 acres. It is located at the intersection of Irvine Avenue and University Drive. The General Plan designation for the site is low density residential with a requirement that 75% of the units be transferred to Newport Center. The Land Use Plan of the Local Coastal Program designates the site for a mixture of recreational and environmental open space uses and loci-density residential uses at a maxitmun of 4 dwelling units per buildable acre, with 75% of the allowable units transferred to Newport Center. A County owned property located within the site is designated for recreational and environmehtal open space. Also located within the site is a City owned park which is designated for recreational and environmental open space and governmental, educational and institutional use to permit the construction of a Natural History Museum. The General Plan will be amended to reflect the designations contained in the Land Use Plan of the Local Coastal Program. The current zoning designation is Planned Community however, no development plan exists at this time. The 6.4 acre County awned parcel used for flood control purposes is located at the southern end of the site. The 6.0 acre City park also located within the site is near the extension of Monte Vista Avenue. This park was dedicated as a part of the requirements for construction of the Sea Island Condominium project. A ten foot wide relocatable pedestrian and bike easement extends along the bluff top with two access easements from Irvine Avenue and a third from University Drive. The east side of the site borders the Upper Newport Bay Ecological Reserve and a wetland area which originates at Irvine Avenue opposite 23rd Street follows an oblique swale across the site to the bay. Riparian vegetation located in the upper reaches of the swale intergrades with other species to form a freshwater marsh. To a large extent this area is part of the 6.4 acre County owned flood control channel. According to the most recent information available a large portion of the northern corner of the site is within the 65 CM noise contour created by jet noise. It is estimated that 161 dwelling units would be allowed on the site using the maximum law density of 4 dwelling units per buildable acre. After 75% of the units (121 dwelling units) are transferred to Newport Center 40 dwelling units remain as the total development for Westbay. The City's General Plan Policy on "Location of Structures" would prohibit structures from being built on natural slope areas greater than two to one (2:1) and greater than 25 feet high, requiring the 40 units to be clustered on the remaining areas of the site. There are no immediate proposals for development. Newporter North Site No. 3. This site is approximately 85.5 acres in size and is located between Bayside Drive and Jamboree Road north of the Newporter Inn. The General Plan shows 77.5 acres of the site for low density residential development with 25% of the allowable units transferable to either Newport Center or North Ford at the option of the property owner. It also requires that the structures be clustered to accommodate archaeological sites and marsh sites. Eight acres located at the southern end of the site, along Bayside Drive, adjacent to the Newporter Inn are designated for Recreation and Marine • 0 Camiercial uses. A small area of the site is shoran for Recreational and Environmental Open Space because it is a sensitive habitat area. The Land Use Plan of the Local Coastal Program has the same designations as the General Plan. In addition to the environmental open space area a public bikeway/walkway is proposed for the site. The western boundary of the site is located adjacent to the Upper Newport Bay Ecological Reserve. At the maximum low density of four dwelling units per buildable acre approximately 212 dwelling units would be allowed on the site. If 25% of the units (53 units) are transferred off the site the remaining 159 units would be located on site. There are no immediate plans for development. Fifth Avenue Parcels Site No. 6 The Fifth Avenue Parcels consist of three separate parcels identified as Sites A. B, and C. Site A is approximately 6.5 acres in size and is located at the intersection of MacArthur Boulevard and 5th Avenue. The General Plan designates Site A for low density residential development which is a maximum of 4 dwelling units per buildable acre. It is estimated that 25 dwelling units would be allowed on the site. Since the site is located near the intersection of Pacific Coast Highway and MacArthur Boulevard traffic noise may effect the location of the permitted dwelling units. The Irvine Company has requested a General Plan Amendment to increase Site A to medium density residential; however, it has been deferred. Site A is zoned Planned Comiunity, but no development plan exists. Site B is 9.6 acres in size and is located on the northwest side of the intersection of Marguerite Avenue and 5th Avenue. The General Plan also designates Site B for low density residential development. It is estimated that 6.8 acres of the site are buildable acres. Therefore, 27 dowelling units would be allowed on the site. General Plan Amendment 81-2 which is currently being processed by the City would redesignate the site for medium density residential development. This would increase the allowed number of units by 41 increasing the total dwelling units to 68. The General Plan Amendment is proposed for hearing in mid-year 1982. Site B is zoned R-1-B. Site C is 13.2 acres in size and is located along 5th Avenue, east of Marguerite Avenue. The General Plan designates Site C for low density residential developrent. It is estimated that 10.0 acres of the site are buildable acres. At 4 dwelling units per acre 40 dwelling units would be allowed on the site. General Plan Amendment 81-2 also includes a request to change Site C to madium density residential. A •General Plan redesignation to medium density residential would increase the allowed number of units by 60, increasing the total dwelling units to 100. Site C is zoned R-1-B. FYeewze Reservation-6Vest Site No. 7. This site is approximately 10.9 acres in size and is located on the southwest side of the intersection of Ford Road and MacArthur Boulevard. The General Plan currently designates the site for recreational and environmental open space. General Plan Amendment 78-2 allocated an additional 100 units to Big Canyon with the requirement that they be built at a location other than area 10. Freeway reservation - west is the only location within Big Canyon that could accommodate 100 dwelling units. This site is currently being processed as part of General Plan Amendment 81-2 to redesignate the site for medium density residential development. It is estimated that 8.7 acres of the site are buildable acres. Therefore, 87 dwelling units would be allowed. The General Plan Amendment is proposed for hearing mid-year 1982. This site is zoned Planned Community. Freeway Reservation - East Site No. 8. This site is approximately 25 acres in size and is located on the southeast side of the intersection of Ford Road and MacArthur Boulevard. The General Plan designates this site for low density residential development which is a maximum of 4 dwelling units per acre. It is estimated that 76 dwelling units would be allowed on this site. This site is zoned Planned Community, however no development plan exists for this site and there are no immediate plans for development. Baywood Expansion Site No. 9. The Baywood site is 10.6 acres in size and is located at the northeast corner of MacArthur Boulevard and San Joaquin Hills Road. This site is adjacent to the existing Baywood Apartments. The General Plan designates this site for medium density residential development with a maximum of 68 dwelling units. It is estimated that 7.3 acres of the site are buildable acres. At the maximum medium density of 10 dwelling units per acre 73 units would have been allowed on the site. This site is zoned Planned Community. A planned comm>nity text, traffic study, resubdivision and environmental document were approved by the City, however construction is not currently contemplated. North Ford Site No. 22. This site is 68.0 acres in size and is located on the northeast side of the intersection of Jamboree Road and Bison Avenue. The General Plan designates the site for a mixture of uses which include general industrial uses, administrative, professional and financial commercial uses, retail and service commercial uses, governmental, educational and institutional facilities and residential uses. The non-residential development permitted by the general plan includes 295,000 square feet of industrial uses and 28,500 square feet of retail uses. The retail uses are subject to a traffic phasing plan. The current permitted residential development is limited to 120 units. The estimated residential portion of the site is ±35 gross acres. There are no known major environmental factors that would effect development. The residential development may be near a freeway o£framp which could effect the location of structures. Newport Center Site No. 26. Newport Center is a 530 acre regional center divided into several large blocks by the internal traffic circulation system. These blocks are developed with a variety of land uses which include both residential and non-residential development. The General Plan addresses the site as a single unit. Under the General Plan the remaining allowable development includes 66,350 square feet of office, 58,750 square feet of commercial, 650 theater seats and 505 residential units. Allocation of the remaining development will involve the intensification of currently developed sites as well as the development of vacant sites. The sites that are currently vacant are as follows: Location Acres Avocado and MacArthur 10.0 Newport Village 25.0 Corporate Plaza West 10.0 Pacific Coast Highway Frontage 10.0 Pacific Coast Highway and Jamboree 9.0 Block 600 10.0 Residential development in Newport Center may be near enough to sources of traffic noise to effect the location of structures.

Additionally, -projects-.with--the, smaller units have the lowest person per household factors. 1 Therefore, a higher density project with an appropriate unit size mix could minimize population related impacts. Additionally, reduced unit size could have the secondary benefit of retaining a lower unit resale price. " To: Planning Co*sion - 9 • Most Efficient Densi/ty;, p�,n e — ' rJt Q�.e.�1Jr Ur Froject density is influenced by several considerations such as site size, f configuration and topography, access, cost of structured parking and project impacts. These considerations lead to the design of the east efficient project • density. Analysis of these considerations is best handled by the developer of a project on a site by site basis since it is the housing industry that is most familiar with the current cost of construction. tA c� It TYPES OF HOUSING. An additional residential consideration is unit type. one possible program that the City might wish to consider is control over the form of housing ownership. This could be accomplished through a rental housing zone. This F one is most useful in cities where rental housing is in short supply rates are consequently high. The 1980 Federal Census shows that ach's housing stock consists of 47.2% rental units with a median rent per month. An important consideration in the composition of a is the balance of ownership and rental housing. Staff has contacted isdictions regarding rental zoning however, no adopted rental zones vered.

Coast Highway, known as the DeAnza Mobile Home Park, from the P-C zoning district to the P-C/MHP zoning district. Background On July 27th, 1981 the City Council requested that the Planning Commission a) prepare a Mobile Home Park Zoning District, and b) apply the zoning district to the DeAnza Mobile Home Park. On November 19, 1981, after several public hearings, the Planning Commission recommended a proposed Mobile Home Park Zone to the City Council. The City Council held two additional public hearings and adopted a Mobile Home Park Zoning District on January 11, 1982. The public hearing proposed for June 10, 1982 will begin the second phase of the Mobile Hans Park Zoning process, the application of the Mobile Home Park District to specific sites.

I am not sure yet whether we call it a "public hearing" or not. We need to advertise this one well. The Planning Camssion specifically mentioned all associations and the League of Wanes Voters. Perhaps we can use the same list as the Housing Element plus a display ad in the paper. You need to start working on the background information, graphics, .etc. for the report. Maybe we could update the undeveloped parcels report and excerpt the specific sites? We will need a thorough discussion of the preliminary "constraints" on each site. k The Planning Ccamission also mentioned discussing other Housing Element policies cn April 22nd.

Suggested Action If desired, set for Public Hearing on April 22, 1982, a planning study to determine appropriate sites for density increases. Environmental DocLmientation The proposed Planning study is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) , which provides that "Feasibility and Planning Studies" for possible future actions where there has not been a project approved, adopted or funded, does not require the preparation of an environmental impact report, but does require consideration of environmental factors as required by CEQA. At such time as the City may desire to amend the General Plan or zoning designations as a result of the findings of the planning study appropriate environmental documentation will need to be prepared. Background The City of Newport Beach has recently amended its Housing Element so that it' conforms to Sections 65580-65589 of the Government Code (AB2853 Roos) . The new Housing Element contains 13 program objectives designed to accomplish the requirements stated in these Sections of the Government Code. One of these objectives, Objective 3, is aimed at "promoting the ' development of an increased level of new housing production consistent with sound planning and environmental standards." The implementation action associated with Objective 3 is as follows: "The Planning Conni.ssion shall conduct public hearings designed to identify which of the non-committed sites will be appropriate for increased levels ,of allowable density without engendering adverse environmental and other community conditions." F y TO: Planning Ccasion - 2 The Housing Element also establishes a target date of six months after the adoption of the Housing Element for the Planning Commission to submit its recomTendations to the City Council. The density increase is also discussed in the Performance Objective section of the Housing Element. This section of the Housing Element contains the required quantification of the City's housing objectives. Performance Objective 1 describes the City's intent regarding density increases as follows: "To increase the ultimate allowable density on the remaining 297 acres of non-committed, undeveloped land by 25%. This increase need not be uniformly applied to all sites; rather densities designated will cumulatively total a 25% increase in residential capacity of remaining sites.

However, this site has been eliminated as a potential residential site by the conditionally certified Local Coastal Plan, Land Use Plan and is no longer eligible for consideration. If the Planning Condssion wishes to add other sites to the list of those eligible for density increases this is the appropriate time to give that direction to Staff. Since the Housing Element was adopted on September 28, 1981, five and one-half months ago, this study should be completed as soon as possible. PLANNING DEPARTMENT Z S D.

Bob Lenard BL:rme CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH PLANNING DEPARTMENT March 3, 1982 TO: Bob Lenard, Advance Planning Administrator FROM: Craig Bluell, Senior Planner SUBJECT: HOUSING ELEMENT IMPLEMENTATION The new Housing Element has been in effect for five months. Contained in the Housing Element are twenty-three implementation actions. Eleven of those actions require immediate implementation. IMMEDIATE IMPLEMENTATION 1 . Objective 1 The Planning Department shall assign to one of its staff members the responsibility of continually monitoring the housing delivery system and submitting a semi-annual report to the City Council outlining the basic needs of the industry, and recommending actions to be taken by the City to assist the industry in meeting its objectives. The Planning Department has been collecting information on housing unit delivery and the City has held one meeting with representatives from the local housing industry. The semi-annual report will present the results of the City's findings. The next three implementation actions are policies which will be applied to developments prior to approval of the tentative tracts. The Banning-Newport Ranch will potentially be the first development evaluated with these policies. Objective 4 In major projects involving commercial and industrial uses, the City shall encourage wherever feasible, the development of housing that is geared to the affordability range of the projected labor force. Objective 5 The Planning Commission and the developer of proposed major commercial/industrial projects shall assess the housing impact of such projects during the development review process. Objective 6 The Planning Commission, in proposed developments of ten or more units, shall seek to achieve a price distribution that bears a reasonable relationship to Performance Objective 2. HOUSING ELEMENT IMPLEMENTATION March 3, 1982 Page Two Performance Objective 2 states: "To provide new housing opportunities for low and moderate income households, wherever possible,, and to encourage the industry to allocate at least 10% (45 units) of the annual production goal to affordable housing for low and moderate income households. 'Affordable' housing shall be defined as housing units that sell for no more than three times the City's estimate of City median annual income at the time of project approval, in the case of for-sale housing; and units that rent for no more than 30% of the City's estimate of median income." Objective 7c. The City shall preserve mobile home park land uses through the establishment of a mobile home park zone. The mobile zone has been adopted, however it has not been applied to any mobile home parks. Objective 7d. The City shall seek to maintain rental opportunities in projects of five or more units by restricting conversions of such units to condominiums. Adopted condominium conversion regulations prohibit projects of five or more units from converting to condominiums. Objective 7f. The City shall continue to work in cooperation with the Orange County Housing Authority to provide Section 8 Rental Housing Assistance to residents of the community. The City will actively pursue modification of the fair market rent structure limits for the community in order to increase the number of Newport Beach housing units that will be eligible to participate in the program. The City is continuing its cooperation with the Orange County Housing Authority to provide Section 8 Rental Housing Assistance. The City will actively pursue modification of the fair market rent structure limits when the regulations for the new Section 8 Rental Assistance Voucher System are available. Objective 9a. The City shall amend its condominium conversion ordinance to permit the conversion of rental units in projects of four units or less to ownership - tenure, because of the expanded opportunities that such conversion provides to first-time homebuyers and new entrants to the housing market. Public hearings are currently being held on this implementation item. Objective 10 The City Planning Department will be available to refer complaints regarding discrimination in the sale or rental of housing in Newport Beach to the proper agency. The Planning Department has been directed to comply with this policy. HOUSING ELEMENT IMPLEMENTATION March 3, 1982 Page Three Objective 12a. Identification of available sites for residential development. This was accomplished in the Housing Element. Objective 12b. The City will permit the installation of mobile homes, factory-built housing, or any other construction technology. Current City regulations and policies do not discriminate against these types of housing units. IMPLEMENTATION AT 6 MONTHS , The following implementation actions are requires six months after adoption (March 1982) . No progress had been made on any of these implementation actions. Objective 2 The first of the semi-annual housing reports. Objective 3 The Planning Commission shall conduct public hearings designed to identify which of the non-committed sites will be appropriate for increased levels of allowable density without engendering adverse environmental and other community conditions. Objective 7b. Consider the renewed participation in the CDBG Program prior to January 21, 1982. Objective 7c. The Planning Department shall explore the feasibility of incentives to spur the construction of rental units. Objective 8 The Planning Department shall develop a Development Review Procedural Guide which outlines and explains the various steps and time demands of the City's housing development review process. Objective 12c. The Planning Department shall review the provisions of SB 1960 (1980 Statutes) and determine whether city criteria for judging "compatibility" are appropriate and necessary, or whether "compatibility" should be left open to interpretation on each project. IMPLEMENTATION AFTER 6 MONTHS The remaining six implementation actions are scheduled for a variety of times. No progress has been made on any of these implementation actions. These implementation actions are as follows: HOUSING ELEMENT IMPLEMENTATION March 3, 1982 Page Four Objective 2 As soon as possible the City Council shall support efforts to design and implement new mortgage instruments which accommodate the consumer's ability to pay, and at the same time satisfy lenders' needs for market rates of return on their investment. One approach toward implementing City involvement in this matter is for the Council to conduct a public hearing, at which representatives of lending institutions, builders, realtors, and consumer organizations are invited to submit testimony. As a result of the public hearing, it would be appropriate for the Council to adopt a policy position and to promote such position through the State Legislative process. Objective 7a. Investigate the use of tax-exempt mortgage revenue bonds six months after adoption of State enabling legislation. Objective 9b. Use of CDBG funds for rehabilitation done with Objective 7b. Objective 11 . Within eighteen months of adoption, complete a three part program to promote a greater choice in housing opportunities for the elderly. Objective 13a. Annual progress report. Objective 13b. Full revision by July 1, 1984.

Box 1768 <� NEW oRrOSACH, Newport Beach, CA 92663 CALI:. 2 �I 14 w Dear Commissioner: In the course of a recent meeting of the Planning Commission, you inquired about what actual minimum size dwellings have existed and proven practical. This query had something to do with the housing element; which apparently has a minimum size limitation of some sort. There are at least two aspects: 1) Family dwellings; 2) Singles. Dwellings suitable for family occupation exist in the form of apartment, condominium or single detached designs. These, in minimum form, usually can be utilized if the living areas are within the range of 700 to 800 square feet. Typical room counts would be 4 total, 2 bedrooms and 1 bath. In terms of personal experience, my father raised four children in just such a house located in Venice. Yes, it was crowded. It cost my father $7, 000 in 1944. it would now cost about $125, 000 and only the color of the stucco has changed. A survey of small dwellings indicates that "Single" or "Efficiency" units typically range in living area from 450 to 650 square feet. This is about the size of a two or three car garage. These are usually found in large apartment projects. Many of these have been successfully converted to condominium use and buyers are found if the price is not too high. Sales prices of $45,000 to 55,000 have proven popular. Later sales efforts have failed due to developer greed - interest gates are secondary in effect. Finally, a foreign firm that operates under the name of "Barratt" is said to have developed a 235 square foot unit in London, England. It is said to be a great success. I did not confirm this but it could be so. A last source of data could be obtained from some of the Motels in the area that have been in use as apartments. Some of those units may be smaller than 400 s. f. . I hope this information is of use and is timely. Time permitting, I would be willing to provide more such if needed. Meanwhile, it appears that any minimum size should be eliminated from the housing element. The public can decide for itself what it can afford.
