HOUSING ELEMENT UPDATE
The City Manager advised the Council that the updated Housing.
Element was reviewed by the Planning Commission at a regular meeting -
on June 19, 1984. In a memorandum dated June 19, 1984 Richard
Anderson, Planning Advisor, advised that the City of Rolling Hills
has regularly reviewed housing through various analyses, and the
July 1, 1984 deadline offers the opportunity to formalize the review
and advise the State of the City's findings. Mr. Anderson advised
that thirteen single family residences have been constructed since
adoption of the Hous ing.Element in 1981 and seven homes have been
demolished, for a net gain of six units. With regard to.occ°upancy,
he said the Southern California Association of Governments Regional
Housing Allocation Model'(RHAM) shows 668 dwelling units serving 644
households, indication 24 unoccupied units for a vacancy factor of
3.4%, which is above the 2% vacancy factor considered to be a minimum
acceptable standard for owner occupied units in the region.
With regard to.housing units now underway, Mr. Anderson noted
that the City has joined other neighboring cities in pooling finan-
cial resources to construct low cost housing in Lomita. To implement
the goals of the housing element, the City has amended the City Code
to provide for manufactured homes, mobile homes and trailers; contrib-
uted money toward the development of housing for elderly.or handicapped
people in Lomita; amended the City Code to provide density bonuses for
developers willing to build low and moderate -income housing in the
City, and met with representatives of other jurisdictions to.discuss
cooperative housing strategies.
Following review of the updated Housing.Element, the Planning
Commission approved and accepted the.update as prepared by Mr. Ander-
son and recommended.that staff forward it to the City Council with
a recommendation that the City Council review the document, and if
found to be acceptable, that the updated Housing Element of the
General Plan be forwarded to the State of California Department of
Housing and Community Development.
In discussing the element, Councilman Pernell-asked that -staff
clarify the vacancy factor of 3:4% and advise the Council regarding
density bonuses for developers willing to build low and moderate
income housing within.the City.
