OCTOBER 18, 2022
STAFF REPORT
CONSENT
ITEM NUMBER: 6.
TITLE
Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) Program Initiative
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolu+on of the City Council of the City of American Canyon delega+ng American Canyon’s Permanent Local Housing Alloca+on (PLHA) funds to the City of Napa to facilitate new low-income housing with an Accessory Dwelling Unit assistance program; and authorize the City Manager to execute an Agreement with the City of Napa to administer the PLHA program.
CONTACT
Brent Cooper, AICP, Community Development Director
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS
In 2017, Governor Brown established the Building Homes and Jobs Act (SB 2) to fund affordable housing with a $75 recording fee on real estate documents. Known as the Permanent Local Housing Alloca+on (PLHA) program, SB 2 provides a permanent, on-going five-year funding alloca+on to local governments for unmet housing needs in their community. The PLHA program funds are allocated by the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD).
The current 2019 to 2023 five-year period is an+cipated to generate $704,612. The City of American Canyon must submit a plan to HCD to use the funds by October 31, 2022 or lose current and future fund allocations.
For many years, the City of Napa has provided housing-related services on behalf of the City of American Canyon. Napa has the exper+se and procedures to provide a full range of housing services through a collabora+ve and cost-effec+ve partnership with excellent customer service. Given the imminent deadline to apply for PLHA funds, we are fortunate to receive the City of Napa’s offer to provide PLHA services to the City of American Canyon.
The City of Napa allocates its PLHA funds for: 1) Homeless Services; and 2) Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) construc+on. The City of Napa would offer either of the two services to the City of American Canyon through a cost-neutral agreement. Although SB 2 allows a wider variety of affordable housing programs, American Canyon lacks the staff and exper+se to administer PLHA funds for an alternative housing program.
13 As stated earlier, the PLHA funds are intended to be used for an unmet housing need. Among the two PLHA housing services offered by the City of Napa, American Canyon supports homeless services and projects through a) par+cipa+on in the Countywide Con+nuum of Care; b) support for Sec+on 8 vouchers for veterans experiencing homelessness (most recently at Valley View); and c) recent approval of 32 dwelling units for Extremely Low-Income residents earning a maximum of 30% AMI in the Lemos Pointe and Napa Cove apartment projects.
By contrast, the City has no program to provide ADU financial incen+ves beyond State Law mandates. The PLHA funds could fill this unmet need by providing ADU financial incentives.
The PLHA alloca+ons can be modified in the future. However, any change equaling 10% or more requires submitting an amended plan to HCD.
Draft 6th Cycle Housing Element Consistency
The City’s Regional Housing Needs Alloca+on (RHNA) requires the City achieve 278 Low Income (50%-80% AMI) and Very Low Income (<50% AMI) dwelling units over an 8-year period between 2023-2031. ADUs constructed in American Canyon, including the PLHA program, would count toward satisfying the Low-Income and perhaps Very Low-Income dwelling unit RHNA allocation.
Because ADUs are an important source of housing affordable to lower income residents, the draJ 6th Cycle Housing Element includes several programs to encourage ADU construc+on in American Canyon. These include:
Program F calls for the City to provide Accessory Dwelling Unit incen+ves over the upcoming 8-year Housing Element term (2023-2031);
Program M calls of the city to iden+fy and apply for housing related funding to assist in the development of affordable housing; and
Program S calls for the city to partner with the City of Napa to take advantage of administrative resources to receive affordable housing funding.
The PLHA program would provide needed funds to fulfill the ADU incen+ve programs in the 6th Cycle Housing Element.
What does an ADU Cost to Build?
The popularity of building ADUs in American Canyon has steadily increased over recent years. But ADU construc+on costs can be a major financial constraint. According to the Napa Sonoma ADU Center, conver+ng an exis+ng interior space (such as a bedroom) to create a 600 square foot, 1- bedroom, 1-bathroom ADU in American Canyon would cost approximately $77,000. That same size ADU built as a new detached ADU would cost approximately $275,000. A photo illustra+on of ADUs is included as Attachment 2.
14 City of Napa Accessory Dwelling Unit Assistance
The proposed City of Napa agreement would enable American Canyon residents to take advantage of technical assistance and below market rate forgivable/deferred financing to create an ADU or a Junior ADU (JADU) on their property. (See Attachment 2 for a description of each type of ADU).
The PLHA program requires the ADU/JADU be rented at prices affordable to tenant(s) with a household income no more than 80% of the Napa County Area Median Income (AMI). For example, the current maximum rent for a 1-bedroom ADU rented to a household earning no more than 80% AMI would be $1,514 per month (source: City of Napa). This rent is adjusted each year based upon changes to Napa County’s AMI. The household income of tenants and rents for ADUs constructed under this program would be monitored annually by the City of Napa.
Because ADUs are rented at prices affordable to Low-Income households (maximum 80% AMI) and possibly Very Low-Income households (<50% AMI), homeowners that take advantage of this program would receive:
A deferred no-interest loan up to $75,000 for a JADU and $100,000 for an ADU.
Loans up to $75,000 will be “forgiven” by 5% each year as long as the units remain affordable to Low Income residents. AJer 20 years, the loan balance reaches $0.00 with no cost to the homeowner.
With $75,000 to $100,000 assistance, ADUs become considerably more affordable to create than most any other type of housing. Plus, ADU property owners earn rental income that would fund ADU management costs (i.e. tenant selec+on, insurance, accoun+ng, construc+on loan, property taxes, income taxes, upkeep) and hopefully a surplus to offset the high cost of their primary residence.
For homeowners considering an ADU on their property, the City is a partner with the Napa Sonoma ADU Center. The friendly and knowledgeable staff at the Napa Sonoma ADU Center provide a onestop shop to access many unbiased, free tools and resources to help homeowners get started on their ADU and Junior ADU projects. The Napa Sonoma ADU Center can be access online at this address: https://napasonomaadu.org/
COUNCIL PRIORITY PROGRAMS AND PROJECTS
Organizational Effectiveness: "Deliver exemplary government services."
FISCAL IMPACT
As currently proposed, the PLHA program funds are derived from the State of California. The PLHA Program limits administra+ve costs to no more than 5 percent of the grant appropria+on. So, there is no direct impact to the general fund.
The City of Napa, to be fiscally prudent in providing its services to the City of American Canyon and 15 other jurisdic+on clients, intends to conduct a fee study to determine whether the cost to provide this service can be accomplished within 5 percent of the grant. If the service cost exceeds 5 percent, the city will fund the service cost gap. Since the service cost study has not yet started, the fiscal impact is not yet determined.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The proposed funding alloca+on and contract is not a project under CEQA and are therefore not subject to environmental review.

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS
On May 6, 2021, City staff condi&onally approved the improvement plans for Watson ranch backbone u&lity infrastructure triggering the need for inspec&on services. The u&li&es will be dedicated to the City upon comple&on and the inspec&on services will ensure the u&li&es are being built according to City standards. It was requested of the City that the Agreement with Coastland be administered by the City and reimbursed by the Developers as expenditures are incurred.
Coastland Civil Engineering has been providing the Inspec&on services within the Watson Ranch Development for the City since August 2021. Task Order # 1 is specifically for Watson Ranch AC1 development and Task Order #2 is for other Watson Ranch developments. It was unclear how much inspec&on &me would be necessary a year ago and funding on both these task orders is almost exhausted necessita&ng the need for an increase. Coastland has been delivering exemplary services with consistent staff doing the onsite inspec&ons, both the City and the Developers are sa&sfied with the level of service.
Amendment #1 for Task Order #1 (Agreement #2021-A126) will increase the Task Order by $150,000 for a not to exceed of $400,000 is being brought to City Council for approval.
Amendment #1 for Task Order #2 (Agreement #2022-006) will increase the Task Order by $150,000 for a not to exceed of $195,000 is being brought to City Council for approval.

TITLE
Devlin Road and Vine Trail Extension Project (TR14-0100) Notice of Completion
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolu/on amending the FY22/23 Capital Budget and Project Budget, accep/ng the contracted work as complete, authorizing the Public Works Director to file a “No/ce of Comple/on”, and releasing a Reten/on payment to DeSilva Gates Construc/on LP in conjunc/on with the Devlin Road and Vine Trail Extension Project (TR14-0100).
CONTACT
Erica Ahmann Smithies, P.E., Public Works Director / City Engineer Ron Ranada, P.E., Senior Civil Engineer
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS
The Devlin Road and Vine Trail Extension Project (TR14-0100) (“Project”) consisted of construc/ng 2,500 linear feet of a new two-lane road with a two-way center turn lane and a Class I mul/-use path, and included associated stormdrain and bioreten/on facili/es, as well as streetligh/ng and landscaping. The Project also included the construc/on of new sanitary sewer, domes/c water, reclaimed water, and joint trench u/li/es to improve the City’s distribu/on and collec/on systems, and support future development.
The City solicited compe//ve bids for the Project and opened bids on November 10, 2020. DeSilva Gates Construc/on LP (DGC) was determined to be the lowest responsible and responsive bidder, with a bid of $4,723,732.00. On November 17, 2020, the City Council authorized the award of the construction contract with a not to exceed Project Budget of $8,376,491 (R2020-99).
DGC has completed the contract work, including Contract Change Order Nos. 1 through 9, to the sa/sfac/on of the Public Works Director, at a final contract cost of $5,232,185.82. Staff recommends the Council accept the work as complete, approve a No/ce of Comple/on, and authorize the release of Retention payment to DeSilva Gates Construction.
COUNCIL PRIORITY PROGRAMS AND PROJECTS
Infrastructure: "Develop and maintain infrastructure resources to support sustainable growth." 89 FISCAL IMPACT
The contract award was made to a low bid that was significantly below the Engineer’s Es/mate during advertisement. Hence, the Project Budget was subsequently reduced to $5,944,163.
The total construction contract amount including all CCOs is $5,232,185.82.
Contract Item Total
Original Construction Contract $4,723,732.00
Change Order #1-9 $522,248.32
Total Construction Contract $5,245,980.32
The es/mated total Project expenditure including the construc/on contract, engineering, material tes/ng, and inspection services, and miscellaneous expenses is $5,610,000.
Total
Construction Contract $5,245,980.32
Engineering & Inspection Services $245,000
In-house Staff and Project Support $120,000
Miscellaneous (Postage & Advertising) $1,000
Total Estimated Project Expenditure (rounded) $5,610,000 Hence the Project Budget is sufficient to close out the Project. However, the Project Budget does need to be amended to reconcile a fund source that was previously iden/fied. Per the Napa Logis/cs Park Phase 2 Subdivision Improvement and Reimbursement Agreement (2018 OR 0024204), Item
2.a, the Developer was responsible for the construc/on of a new recycled water main from Green Island Road to Napa Logis/cs Park. As provided for in the agreement, the Developer requested that the City install the recycled water improvements as part of the Devlin Road Project, with the understanding that the Developer would reimburse the City for the costs. The costs for the recycled water improvements amounted to $327,877.20, which the City invoiced, and the Developer has reimbursed. Staff recommends the FY22/23 Capital Budget be amended to include the Developer reimbursement, and the Project Budget be amended to encumber said funds for the Project.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”), an Ini/al Study/Mi/gated Nega/ve Declara/on (“IS/MND”), that includes a “Mi/ga/on Monitoring and Repor/ng Plan (“MMRP”), was prepared for the Project and at a public hearing for considera/on of the Project and its IS/MND on January 15, 2019, the City Council determined: 1) based upon the record that the Project will not have a significant effect upon the environment if the mi/ga/on measures listed in the MND and MMRP are implemented; 2) adopted the IS/MND for the Project; 3) adopted the MMRP for the Project, and 4) directed staff to file a No/ce of Determina/on for the Project consistent with the CEQA Guidelines.

Re: Geotechnical Observation and Testing Services
Green Island Pump Station and Sanitary Sewer
Green Island Road
American Canyon, California
Introduction
In this letter we summarize the results of our geotechnical observation and testing services at the referenced development. We previously performed a geotechnical and fault investigation for the development and presented the results in our July 29, 2016 report titled, "Geotechnical and Geologic Fault Investigation, Napa Logistics Park – Phase 2 Devlin Road, American Canyon, California."
Project Description
The project included construction of the new pump station and associated sanitary sewer line.
A gravel access road was constructed on top of majority of the sanitary sewer for maintenance access. Also, new sections of water line, and electrical were also constructed for the pump station. New sections of sidewalk and driveway were also constructed at the pump station.
Other improvements necessary for site development were also constructed.
Scope of Services
Our geotechnical observation and testing services began June 24, 2021 and included utilities, road subgrade and aggregate base, and, flatwork subgrade and aggregate base and lasted until August 23, 2022, the date of our last requested site visit. The scope of our construction observation and testing services for geotechnical aspects of this project included a combination of part- and full-time observation and testing on an on-call basis as set forth in our agreement with you. A general list of construction work involving our geotechnical engineering services is presented below.
1. Placement and compaction of utility trench backfill.
2. Flatwork and pavement subgrade preparation and compaction.
3. Placement and compaction of flatwork and pavement aggregate base.
4. Access road subgrade and aggregate base compaction
129
Project No.: 582-2-14 2 October 10, 2022
Services Performed
During construction, we provided geotechnical observation services along with periodic field density testing at various locations and elevations across the site. Our observations and field density test results were recorded in the Daily Field Reports (DFR), Nos. 132 through 245, for the period from June 24, 2021 through August 23, 2022. Laboratory testing consisted of 6 compaction curve tests. These tests were conducted for the various fill materials used at the site. Records of the field density tests and laboratory testing are kept in our files for a period of three years after completion of the project and are available for your review, if desired.
Meaning of “Observation”
"Observation", as used in this document, means that we observed the progress of the work on an intermittent basis, and performed tests on selected soil and rock materials. Our opinion about the general conformance of geotechnical aspects of construction to the project plans and specifications is based on these observations and test results.
Opinion
Based on our field observations and test results, it is our opinion that the geotechnical aspects of the construction for the project that we observed and tested have been performed in general conformance with the project plans and specifications.
Closure
Our geotechnical services, including our professional opinions and conclusions, are made for the sole use of Orchard Partners, LLC, in accordance with generally accepted soil and foundation engineering principles and practices in the San Francisco Bay Area at this time.
However, we do not undertake the guarantee of any aspects of the construction that we observed and tested, nor do we relieve the contractor of his primary responsibility to produce a completed project conforming to the project plans and specifications. No warranties are either expressed or implied.
Should you have any questions, or if we can be of further service, please contact us at your earliest convenience.

ITEM NUMBER: 10.
TITLE
New Commission(s)
RECOMMENDATION
Discuss the transi'on of the former Open Space Advisory Commi-ee into one or more new commissions with the purviews of issues such as "open space", "ac've transporta'on", and "sustainability".
CONTACT
Jason Holley, City Manager
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS
The City Council has tasked the City Manager with professionalizing the city organiza'on. This task includes formalizing the Council's interface with its Ci'zen Advisory Commi-ees (CAC's) to improve their func'onality and interac'on with the Manager and staff. Example CAC's include the Open Space Advisory Commi-ee (OSAC), the Parks and Community Services (PCS) Commission, the Planning Commission, and the Utility Rate Advisory Committee.
The Council reviewed the OSAC's dra; FY 22/23 Work Plan during a special joint mee'ng with the OSAC on May 31, 2022. During the May 31 mee'ng, Council expressed a desire to meet with the PCS Commission prior to making a decision whether to "re-authorize" the OSAC.
The Council approved the PCS Commission's FY 22/23 Work Plan during a special joint mee'ng with the PCS Commission on August 30, 2022. Therea;er, the Council again met jointly with the OSAC on October 4, 2022. There were no shortage of ideas discussed during the October 4 mee'ng; many questions exist and additional Council direction is needed.
Institutional Memory
Mayor Garcia voted to create the OSAC as a member of the City Council in 2005 (A-achment 1).
Mayor Garcia believes the Council intended the OSAC to have a limited dura'on. In contrast, Councilmember Joseph authored Resolu'on 2005-86 (as then City Manager) and recalls a different, more permanent inten'on. OSAC-Chair Matson and OSAC-Member Chris'an have been appointed to the OSAC continuously since its inception and they share Councilmember Joseph's perspective. 145
Mayor Garcia also voted to designate the OSAC as the City's "Bicycle Advisory Commi-ee" in 2010 (A-achment 2). As noted by OSCA-Chair Matson and OSAC-Member Chris'an, the OSAC developed the City's first "Bike Master Plan" - including route recommenda'ons for the Vine Trail - among other activities.
Through the hard work of former and current Councilmembers, OSAC-members, and City staff - along with contribu'ons from local, state, and federal partners, and private partnerships - that resulted in the Newell Open Space and Wetlands becoming accessible through a system of trails that remains popular des'na'ons for residents and visitors. The OSAC con'nues to undertake ac'vi'es and projects related to open space, trails and bicycles, though in recent memory, their ac'vi'es have not been associated with a work plan approved by the Council.
All of the members of the OSAC are dedicated to serving the American Canyon community. In addi'on, these prominent residents par'cipate in community groups, a-end special events, and act as ambassadors for the City. Notably, both Councilmembers Oro and Washington served on the OSAC before being elected to Council.
OSAC members are appointed to four-year terms by the Council. Unlike the Council, currently there is no limit to the number of terms they may serve.
Current OSAC members include:
Nance Matson (02/08/2006-12/31/2025) - 5 terms
Barry Christian (02/08/2006-12/31/2025) - 5 terms
Tara McClinton-Horner (03/03/2015-12/31/2022) - 2 terms Kim Hester-Williams (09/28/2017-12/31/2022 - 2 terms
Scott Artis (01/14/2021-12/31/2025) - 1 term
New Commission(s)
On May 4, the OSAC developed a new dra; Resolu'on (A-achment 3) re-authorizing its purview along with a dra; FY 22/23 Work Plan (A-achment 4). These documents were presented to Council on May 31 and October 4. Irrespec've of determining the bprior Council inten'ons, the current Council believes a more formal and expansive body is needed in perpetuity. The purview of new - as of yet un'tled - body is desired to include issues such as "open space", "ac've transporta'on", and "sustainability". (Note: the term "ac've transporta'on" includes all modes of ac've transporta'on - including, but not limited to, bicycles.).
The aforemen'oned topics are tangen'ally related. Staff is unable to locate a comparable body elsewhere whose purview covers all of these topics. Thus, a threshold ques'on exists - should there actually be two or three new bodies focused on specific issues instead? For example: an Open Space Commission, Active Transportation Commission, and a Sustainability Commission.
Regardless, at a minimum, modifica'ons to dra; Resolu'on (A-achment 3) and Work Plan 146
(Attachment 4) are needed.
Beyond the threshold question, the Manager also has the following questions:
1. What should be the name(s) of new Commission(s)?
2. Who decides the priorities of the new Commission(s)?
3. What are the roles and responsibility of the Commission(s) - "as-needed informational only" or "refer for review/approval" or "provide direc'on to staff regarding workload, work product, etc."?
4. Should the new Commission(s) have more than 5 members?
5. Should the new Commission(s) have bylaws comparable to the PCS Commission and/or a Work Plan regularly approved by Council?
6. Who undertakes the work iden'fied in the new Commission's Work Plan - staff and consultants or Commissioners - or both?
7. Should current OSAC-Members automatically be appointed to the new Commission?
8. Should new Commissioners have expertise in any of the areas of purview?
9. Should the Climate Ad-Hoc Commi-ee's "2022 Climate Ac on Plan - Interim Report (August 1,
2022)" be added to the new Commission's Work Plan or should the new Commission develop its own ideas for sustainability?
10. Should the Commission's purview include "Complete Streets" (ie. all modes of transporta'on) or just bicycles?
11. Should the Commission's purview include the Eco-Center Project? If so, what role?
12. Should the Commission's purview include the Jaeger Open Space Project and updates to the Watson Ranch Specific Plan? If so, what role?
13. Should the Commission's purview include the Newell Management Plan? If so, what role?
14. Should the Commission's purview include the Clark Ranch Master Plan? If so, what role?
15. Should the Commission's purview include the planning of volunteer projects? If so, what role?
16. Should the Commission's purview include new private development projects, in addi'on to the Planning Commission and City Council?
17. Should the Commission's purview include the City's Capital Improvement Program (CIP), and if so, what aspects?
All of these ques'ons can be dis'lled as follows: Who decides? Said differently, does the Council want to decide these questions or delegate this responsibility to others? And if so, then who?

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS
Since 1969, California has required all city and county governments to adopt a Housing Element that will adequately meet the housing needs of everyone in the community. Since the 60’s, Housing Elements included policies to accommodate each community’s “fair share” of housing for all income groups. Known as the Regional Housing Needs Alloca8on (RHNA), jurisdic8ons must demonstrate they have sufficient land at appropriate densi8es to accommodate their fair share of new housing need in the region. In addi8on, jurisdic8ons must reduce obstacles to achieve the RHNA by streamlining development. Today’s Housing Element is a mandated element of the City’s General Plan that must be updated every eight years. Unlike other General Plan Elements, the Housing Element must be certified by the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD).
In spite of more than 50 years of Housing Element policies, California’s housing shortage grows more acute. In response, the State Legislature con8nues to adopt new Housing legisla8on to address the State’s systemic housing shortage. In 2017 alone, the Governor signed 15 housing bills in an effort to increase housing supply. Many of these new laws are implemented through the Housing Element. To reward jurisdictions with a valid Housing Element, State grant funds for a growing list of programs (i.e. infrastructure, affordable housing, and others) are con8ngent upon a jurisdic8on having an HCD-certified Housing Element.
American Canyon is no ordinary city. It is a is genuinely inclusive community of 21,000 plus residents. As we reflect on the 5th Cycle Housing Element RHNA, American Canyon can take pride 156
for exceeding the “fair share” RHNA alloca8on by 68%. Furthermore, the City accomplished all 38 of the 5th Cycle Housing Element Implementa8on Programs – many of which will be included in the draft 6th Cycle Housing Element. A summary of the 5th cycle Housing Element policy achievement is included as AIachment 1. Looking ahead to the next eight years (2023-2031), the 6th Cycle Housing Element provides a plan to achieve the City’s 622 housing unit RHNA alloca8on. A copy of the dra$ Housing Element is included as Attachment 6.
Also, consistent with Council direc8on, this staff report includes an examina8on of the City’s hearing procedure ordinance.
How the City will meet the RHNA
The 622-housing unit RHNA alloca8on is divided among four household income categories as shown in the table below. The current RHNA is made up of 446 dwelling units allocated by ABAG plus 176 units from two RHNA Transfer Agreements with Napa County that benefited the City of American Canyon. A 2010 agreement with the County for 149 units facilitated the Watson Ranch property annexa8on. A 2017 agreement with Napa County for 27 units brought an addi8onal $2.0 million of County funding for the Valley View Affordable Housing project. An explana8on of the RHNA Transfer agreements and ABAG’s approval is included as Attachment 2.
To reduce the possibility that the RHNA alloca8on is not achieved because some Housing Element inventory sites do not develop, HCD will require each jurisdic8on to iden8fy 15 to 30+ percent more units in the inventory (a RHNA “buffer”) than are required to meet a jurisdic8on’s RHNA. This is especially important for the moderate, low and very low-income categories. Fortunately, with approval of Watson Ranch Specific Plan (WRSP), the Broadway District Specific Plan (BDSP), Oat Hill Residen8al, and infill loca8ons, American Canyon has sufficient land available today with zoning at densi8es to exceed the 622-unit RHNA alloca8on. An ABAG informa8onal bulle8n on Housing Element Site Inventories and “buffer” units is included as Attachment 3.
To demonstrate compliance with the RHNA alloca8on, Housing Element RHNA Table 6-2 iden8fies 12 approved and proposed residen8al projects. In addi8on, the City an8cipates construc8on of 16 Accessory Dwelling Units over the next 8-year Housing Element Cycle. These “Pipeline” projects exceed the RHNA allocation plus a sufficient “buffer” to meet HCD’s standards as shown on the table below. A detailed table is included as Attachment 4.

In addi8on to the Pipeline projects, the BDSP has capacity for an addi8onal 662 dwelling units.
Similarly, a$er accoun8ng for projects planned and approved within the WRSP, there is remaining capacity for approximately 585 residen8al units at densi8es ranging from two to over 20 dwelling units per acre.
Affirmatively Affirm Fair Housing:
A significant change in the current Housing Element cycle is that local jurisdic8ons must “Affirma8vely Affirm Fair Housing” (AFFH). Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act of 1968 is known as the Fair Housing Act. AFFH means each jurisdic8on has the obliga8on to affirma8vely further the Fair Housing Act by taking meaningful ac8ons to combat paIerns of segrega8on that restrict access to opportunity based on protected characteristics, which are:
Race
Color
National origin
Religion
Sex (including gender identity and sexual orientation)
Familial status
Disability
Fortunately, according to ABAG, American Canyon is the fi$h-most integrated jurisdic8on in the Bay Area (source: hIps://bit.ly/3exJ6ZM). As an inclusive city, many AFFH issues have already been addressed through American Canyon’s local ordinances, such as requirements to relax the development regula8ons and streamline the approval process for accessory dwelling units, support of Napa County Con8nuum of Care, annual support for Fair Housing Napa Valley and other programs. New policies are interwoven throughout the Element, but the specific AFFH analysis is provided in Chapter 4, with specific Goal H-8.
Public Input on the Draft Housing Element
Pursuant to California Government Code Sec8on 65583(c)(9), local governments are required to “make a diligent effort to achieve public par8cipa8on of all economic segments of the community in the development of the housing element.” This process not only includes community members, but also par8cipa8on from local agencies and housing groups, community organiza8ons, and housing sponsors. See Chapters 1 and 7 for an overview of Community Engagement.
To meet these requirements, American Canyon solicited input from stakeholders and community members through stakeholder interviews, community pop-up events, workshops, a housing survey, a project-specific website, and public hearings.
To reach the largest and broadest spectrum of community members and stakeholders, the following notification methods were used throughout the update to the Housing Element:
158
1. A Housing Element website with background informa8on in English and Spanish, links to the Housing Survey, and the Draft Housing Element
2. Advertisement in the City Manager’s Update, which has 13,543 subscribers.
3. Regular posts to the City’s social media accounts, including NextDoor (7,225 members) and Facebook (5,159 followers) announcing the housing survey and community workshops.
4. Regular “e-blasts” to list of 2,070 stakeholders, including organiza8ons, businesses, housing managers, and community members.
5. Community workshops adver8sed on the community calendar events and public mee8ng agendas.
6. Distributed printed flyers and postcards, and surveys in English, Spanish, and Tagalog at popup-up events.
Housing Survey
The Housing Element website hosted an online survey for 127 days (from January 10, 2022, to May 16, 2022) to receive public feedback on housing needs, current housing condi8ons, and opportuni8es for housing programs. The survey was available in Spanish and English. We received 166 survey participants.
Forty percent of the survey respondents stated they own a home in American Canyon. Nearly sixty percent of the survey respondents stated that lack of affordable housing purchase op8ons is their top concern. Thirty-six percent of the survey respondents stated that lack of affordable rental housing is their top concern.
Participants input followed these major themes:
The biggest housing needs facing American Canyon are lower-priced housing and opportunities for first-time homebuyers.
The future of American Canyon’s housing needs are primarily more housing op8ons priced so that younger families can afford to live in the city and repairs for older homes.
A need to promote equal access to fair housing choice as well as fair housing educa8on and landlord/tenant counseling services.
A need for down payment assistance programs, as well as low-cost home repair programs.
Needed accessory dwelling unit programs include advice on planning an ADU and financial assistance.
Addi8onally, between January and August 2022, a second mini-survey was conducted during community pop-up events including American Canyon Middle School, American Canyon High School, Adult Activity Center, Pride, Juneteenth, Meet Me In The Street (2 events), and National Night Out.
The mini-survey was available in digital and print versions in English, Spanish and Tagalog that allowed the public to provide feedback on the most important housing issue. Fi$y-one percent of the respondents stated that they own a home in American Canyon. Fi$y-six percent of the 159
respondents from the survey stated that lack of affordable housing op8ons to buy is their top concern.
The surveys provided local and qualita8ve context to quan8ta8ve data collected for the Housing Needs Assessment and Assessment of Fair Housing, and informed program design.
Tribal Consultation
California Public Resources Code § 21080.3.1 (Assembly Bill [AB] 52 of 2014) requires local governments to conduct meaningful consulta8on with California Na8ve American tribes tradi8onally and culturally affiliated from the geographic area.
In March 2022, the City reached out to the Cor8na Band of Indians, the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria, and the Yocha Dehe Wintun Na8on. The Yocha Dehe Wintun Na8on requested a consulta8on which occurred on August 8, 2022. As a followup to the mee8ng, the Yocha Dehe Wintun Na8on Cultural Resources Department informed staff in a leIer dated August 18, 2022 that they have concerns projects related to the Housing Element could impact known cultural resources.
To address these concerns, the Yocha Dehe Wintun Na8on Cultural Resources Department requested the City incorporate Yocha Dehe Wintun Na8on’s Treatment Protocol into mi8ga8on measures for the project. A copy of the leIer, which includes the protocol is included as Attachment 5.
Staff proposes to incorporate the Treatment Protocol into the project by adding AFFH Housing Element Policy H-8.12 below:
Policy H-8.12 Yocha Dehe Wintun Na(on Treatment Protocol . In the event any Na8ve American human remains, grave goods, ceremonial items, and items of cultural patrimony are found in conjunc8on with development, including archaeological studies, excava8on, geotechnical inves8ga8ons, grading, and any ground disturbing ac8vity, the “Yocha Dehe Wintun Na8on Treatment Protocol for Handling Human Remains and Cultural Items Affiliated with the Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation” shall be implemented as included as Appendix A to the Housing Element.
Incorpora8ng this policy and Appendix would into the Housing Element as a Project component will ensure appropriate and sensi8ve treatment of Na8ve American cultural items discovered in the course of housing construc8on. The Housing Element will be amended with this new Policy in the version that will be sent to HCD.
Stakeholder Interviews
To gather local expert-level knowledge and input on the Housing Element Update, three focus group interviews were conducted on March 14, 21, and 25, 2022. The City contacted 168 stakeholders, including organizations, businesses, housing managers, and community members. 160
The following organiza8ons serve special needs households and renters, providing affordable housing, or offer fair housing services, and participated in stakeholder interviews:
Focus Group #1 - Affordable Housing and Market-Rate Housing Developers Working in American Canyon and Napa and Sonoma Counties (March 14, 2022)
Charles Durrett, Architect
Rick Hess, RH Hess Development
Andrew Killeen, Executive Director, Sonoma Napa Habitat for Humanity Adam Lind, Project Manager, DR Horton
Erica Roetman Sklar, CEO, Napa Valley Community Housing Focus Group #2 - Fair Housing Providers, Interest Groups, and Representa8ves of Special Needs Populations (March 21, 2022)
Elaine Clark, Executive Director Napa/Solano Area Agency on Aging Tracy Lamb, Executive Director, NEWS Domestic Violence & Sexual Abuse Services Pablo Zatarain, Executive Director, Fair Housing Napa Valley Focus Group #3 - Housing and/or Service Providers Working in American Canyon (March 25, 2022) Lark Ferrell, City of Napa (staff to the Housing Authority of City of Napa which contracts with American Canyon for housing services)
Ali Gaylord, MidPen Housing, Director of Housing for North Bay Renee Schomp, The Napa Sonoma ADU Center
Each stakeholder interview consisted of at least five guided discussion questions. Interview notes are available in the Housing Element, Chapter 7.
The following major themes were informed from the stakeholder interviews:
There is a need for more properties with mixed use zoning.
Affordable housing projects located near services are more likely to qualify for state funding.
Development standards should allow for greater flexibility.
Funding is a larger barrier than zoning in geYng affordable housing built. State or Federal grants applications that include a local share are more competitive.
Parking requirements are viewed as necessary because the community is s8ll largely auto dependent. But parking requirements may prevent projects from achieving the maximum density.
Infrastructure costs are a significant barrier to affordable housing. The city could facilitate affordable housing developers by publicly funding infrastructure, building infrastructure, or conducting infrastructure studies.
Most special needs popula8ons struggle to find housing (i.e.: homeless, those with mental or physical disabili8es, large families, seniors, farmworkers, and very low-income households).
Par8cipants noted that much progress has been made on providing homes for veterans experiencing homelessness.
161
Data gathered from the focus Stakeholder interviews informed policy and program design. See Housing Needs Assessment, the Assessment of Fair Housing (Chapter 4).
Goals, Policies and Programs:
An overarching objec8ve of the 2023-2031 Housing Element update is to make the goals, policies, and programs more streamlined and straighZorward, resul8ng in a more effec8ve plan that is easier to understand and implement, and better aligned with State law.
The Housing Element includes nine goal statements. Under each goal statement are policies to help the City achieve that goal. Implementa8on programs, listed at the end of the Policy Document, describe the specific ac8ons the City will take to achieve its housing goals. The implementa8on programs also iden8fy the City agencies or departments with primary responsibility for carrying out the program and the time frame to accomplish the program.
The dra$ Housing Element goals provide an organizing framework for policies and programs that follow. The updated draft goals are:
1. Housing Supply
2. Balance of Housing Types
3. Livable Neighborhoods
4. Housing Maintenance and Rehabilitation
5. Affordable Housing
6. Preservation of Affordability
7. Housing for Special Needs
8. Affirmatively further fair housing opportunities for all persons.
9. Energy Conservation and Sustainable Development
New and updated policies and programs falling under these updated goals commit the City to monitor meaningful ac8ons that implement housing goals, consistent with State law. The goals and policies are found at the beginning of the Housing Element.
Implementation Program
The Housing Element Implementa8on Programs include specific ac8ons the City will undertake during the 8-year Housing Element cycle. Affirma8ve ac8ons include a variety of tasks. Examples of implementation programs in the draft Housing Element include:
Monitoring housing programs: (i.e.: monitoring residen8al zoning capacity to ensure the RHNA can be achieved; monitor progress toward program objec8ves and implement addi8onal measures if metrics are not being met; monitor affordable units at-risk of the affordable term expiring, etc.)
Enforce exis(ng ordinances: (i.e.: Mobilehome Park Rent Stabiliza8on Ordinance; Fair Housing enforcement, Code Enforcement, enforce the Electric Vehicle Charging Sta8on Ordinance)
162
Amend the Municipal Code: (i.e.: allow low barrier naviga8on centers per Government Code Sec8ons 65660 and 65668 (AB 101); Allow small residen8al care facili8es in the RRH zone in compliance per California Government Code Sec8on 65583; define and create a process to permit large residen8al care facili8es, and manufactured housing subject only to the restric8ons of single-family uses; Update Chapter 19.27 (Density Bonus) per California Government Code Sec8ons 65915 through 65918; update the Accessory Dwelling Unit Ordinance).
Establish Performance Standards: (i.e.: encourage 15 ADUs by 2031; support 4 missing middle density housing developments by 2031; support 15 moderate income units in moderate and high resource areas by 2031; assist at least 60 households with substandard housing iden8fied through code compliance with a Residential Rehabilitation Loan) Outreach: (i.e.: Provide ADU, Residen8al Rehabilita8on Loan informa8onal materials in mul8ple languages on the City website; informa8onal workshops, conduct bi-annual coordina8on mee8ngs with local affordable housing providers; contact tenants subject to a condo conversion and provide educa8on regarding tenant rights and conversion procedures pursuant to California law).
Provide Funding for Programs: (i.e.: rehabilita8on financing assistance for at least 5 households annually un8l 2031; provide financial assistance for development of at least 65 moderate and lower-income housing units by 2031; evaluate sources of addi8onal public funds for affordable housing; facilitate CDBG funds for improvements to support development of 40 lower- and moderate-income housing units by 2031).
Partnerships: (i.e.: explore poten8al funding opportuni8es and public-private partnerships with affordable housing developers and non-profit housing agencies; partner with the City of Napa for affordable housing exper8se; every two years solicit poten8al revisions to the Inclusionary Housing Program to address housing constraints with market rate developers and organizations that represent low-income households.
All 38 programs will be evaluated every year during the Housing Element Annual Report. Each year, the report is reviewed by the Planning Commission and City Council. The approved report is sent to HCD and the State Department Office of Policy and Research (OPR).
Next Steps
Following the 30-day Housing Element public review period which will conclude October 27, 2022, staff will evaluate comments received and adjust the Housing Element. HCD requires local jurisdictions to take at least 10 business days to fulfill this review task.
A$er making revision to address public comment, staff will submit the dra$ Housing Element to HCD for their first review. This ini8al review may take up to 90-days. Many jurisdic8ons have found the HCD include detailed review leIers with many comments. Within this ini8al review leIer, HCD may provide preliminary comments, which can be helpful to anticipate needed revisions.
Following receipt of the HCD leIer and needed revisions, the Housing Element will be brought to 163
the Planning Commission and City Council for approval. Following approval, the Housing Element will be returned to HCD for a second 30-day review. If comments from the 2nd HCD review can be accommodated without significant policy amendments, staff will make the changes administra8vely and return the updated Housing Element to HCD for certification.
The deadline for Housing Element approval is January 31, 2023. HCD offers a 120-day grace period to May 31, 2023. If the Housing Element is cer8fied during this 8me, the Housing Element is considered compliant.
Public Hearing Notice Requirements
On October 5, 2022, the City Council directed staff to return with informa8on related to the City’s public hearing no8fica8on requirements for discre8onary development. This direc8on was provided in response to concerns from the public that hardcopy leIer no8fica8on is sent to too few property owners and residents.
American Canyon Municipal Code (ACMC) sets forth public hearing procedures in Chapter
19.40.050. These requirements mirrors State Law minimum requirements for public hearings:
California Government Code sec8on 65091(a)(4) requires mailing or delivery to all owners or real property (as shown on the latest equalized assessment roll) within 300 feet of the real property that is the subject of the hearing.
Government Code sec8on 65090(a) requires no8ce of the hearing provided in a newspaper of general circulation within the local agency's jurisdiction at least 10 days before the hearing.
Government Code sec8on Sec8on 65091(a)(4) states that if the number of owners to whom no8ce would be mailed or delivered is greater than 1,000, the local agency, in lieu of mailing or delivery, may provide no8ce by placing a display adver8sement of at least one-eighth page in at least one newspaper of general circula8on within the local agency in which the proceeding is conducted at least 10 days prior to the hearing.
Public Hearing Notification Survey
Staff reviewed the public hearing requirements from Napa County and several nearby jurisdictions.
The smaller Napa County jurisdic8ons require a 300-foot no8fica8on. These include Calistoga, St. Helena, and Yountville.
Fairfield has a 300-foot no8fica8on, but they allow the Director to increase the no8fica8on to 500 feet. Staff would not recommend this approach because it would place the Director in a posi8on of conflict because there is no objec8ve standard to determine when a wider notification is warranted.
The Ci8es of Benicia and Napa have a 500-foot no8fica8on standard. However, Napa increases the no8fica8on to 750 feet and 1,000 feet un8l the no8fica8on list achieves a minimum of 30.
164
Napa County, with low density and a large territory uses a 1,000-foot notification standard.
The survey results are included as Attachment 7.
Sample Notification Map for 300, 500, and 1,000-feet
Any parcel that “touches” the required no8fica8on distance will be included in the no8fica8on list.
Shown in AIachment 8 is an example of a map that depicts a 300-foot, 500-foot, and a 1,000-foot notification distance from the proposed carwash at 3885 Broadway.
As shown on the map, the number of parcels included in each notification list is:
The 300-foot notification distance encompasses 16 parcels.
The 500-foot notification distance encompasses 43 parcels.
The 1,000-foot notification distance encompasses 164 parcels.
Due to varying parcel sizes, every situa8on will yield different results, however, more parcels will be covered as the size of the notification distance increases.
Additional Notification Practices In Place
In addi8on to public hearing no8ce required by the municipal code, staff reaches out to residents to provide information on development application submittals. These include:
1. The project is added to the Ac8ve Development Project list. This list includes all ac8ve development applica8ons. Each development project is iden8fied by name, type of applica8on (i.e.: subdivision map, design permit, condi8onal use permit, etc.), project descrip8on, the applicant, address, site acreage, milestone status with dates, and staff project manager. The Ac8ve Development Project list is updated monthly. It is made available on the City’s website and included as a standing item on each Planning Commission agenda. A copy of the latest Active Development Project list is included as Attachment 9.
2. The City’s website includes an interac8ve map that depicts development projects. This map can be viewed at this link: https://bit.ly/3evwzWM.
3. The City Manager’s Update and Community Development Department “Around Town” newsletter features new development projects.
4. Staff informs Council when a new development project is submiIed during the standing Council meeting agenda item “Management Updates.”
5. On rare occasions for unusual projects, the Planning Commission and/or City Council will conduct a workshop. This workshop would include a leIer sent to property owners within 300 feet of the project.
6. City Council Resolu8on 2010-75 encourages development applicants to conduct outreach to neighbors prior to submiYng an applica8on to the City. A copy of Resolu8on 2010-75 is included as Attachment 10.
165
Potential New Notification Practices
Staff con8nually innovates public outreach to make it easy for residents to live a busy life and remain aware of important events happening at City Hall. Two new ideas staff is considering is requiring development applicants to install a durable sign on their property that announces a proposed development applica8on. This sign would need to be large enough to be visible from passing motorists and would include contact information and a brief description of the proposal.
Currently, staff sends a leIer to nearby neighbors when a project is newly-submiIed. A second idea is to send an electronic copy of this leIer to the extensive email distribu8on list of residents that have requested regular email updates. This informa8on would augment the exis8ng prac8ce of emailing public hearing notices to the email distribution list.
Both these poten8al new prac8ces would provide no8fica8on to a resident regardless of where they live – potentially well beyond any Municipal Code-required public hearing notification radius.
COUNCIL PRIORITY PROGRAMS AND PROJECTS
Organizational Effectiveness: "Deliver exemplary government services."
FISCAL IMPACT
The Housing Element cost is included in the adopted 5-Year Capital Improvement Program. There is no cost associated with the public hearing notification workshop.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The dra$ Housing Element is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act in accordance with Statutory Exemp8on 15061(b)(3) as a project that has no poten8al to cause a significant effect on the environment; CEQA Guidelines § 15060(c)(2) as a project that will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. This determina8on applies because the Housing Element would not en8tle any new housing because the RHNA will be accomplished by Projects that have already complied with CEQA or are proposed consistent with the exis8ng general plan and zoning designa8ons. A copy of the filed No8ce of Exemp8on is included as Attachment 11.

Housing Element Site Inventories: Why Buffers and Excess Capacity Matter
No Net Loss Requirements
The No Net Loss Requirements Law (Government Code
§ 65863) ensures that assumptions jurisdictions make
in Housing Element site inventories match what is
actually built. A jurisdiction's Housing Element must
identify adequate sites to accommodate its regional
housing needs allocation (RHNA) at all income levels. A jurisdiction must make sure it maintains sites that can accommodate both the overall number of units
projected and the number of units at each income
level.
Unless jurisdictions have more sites in their Housing
Element inventory than the minimum required, they
may fall out of compliance if they:
1. Reduce a site’s residential density.
2. Approve development applications with fewer
units on the site than identified in the Housing
Element.
3. Approve development applications with higher
income units than stated in the Housing
Element.
Process
When development proposals are received,
jurisdictions must compare the proposal for that site to the assumptions in the Housing Element. If the
proposal has fewer units, or different affordability
assumptions, jurisdictions must demonstrate:
• Buffer - That their Housing Element has enough
of a buffer that there are still available sites to
meet the RHNA.
1 20 DUA for suburban jurisdictions; 30 DUA for
jurisdictions in a metropolitan county.
• Higher than expected units - Other
developments identified in the Housing
Element came in above the assumptions in the
Housing Element.
• Developments on sites not in the Housing
Element - Sites not identified in the Housing
Element are moving forward with housing.
If none of the above are true, jurisdictions within 180 days after approval of the new development must:
• Identify other sites- Identify other sites that are
eligible based on the criteria for Housing
Element site inventories that created the
shortfall.
• Rezone – Identify other sites that may require
rezoning to accommodate the shortfall
The RHNA Buffer
To reduce the likelihood of having to rezone, it is a best practice to have 15 to 30+ percent more units listed in the inventory than are required to meet a jurisdiction’s RHNA. This is especially important for the moderate,
low and very low-income categories.
HCD allows jurisdictions to use zoned density as a
proxy for lower income, as long as certain statutory
requirements are met. These include counting sites
zoned at a minimum of 20 or 30 units per acre as
affordable, depending on jurisdictional size 1. This is called the default density. While this is helpful in
getting a certified Housing Element, it is likely that
some sites that were considered affordable in the
173
inventory based on zoned densities will not produce
enough (or any) affordable housing. In this case, the
buffer provides jurisdictions with the flexibility to use other sites to make up the difference. For example:
In the Housing Element, a jurisdiction listed a
one-acre site, zoned at 30 units per acre. The
jurisdiction assumed, for Housing Element
purposes, all 30 units were affordable.
A few years after the adopting the Housing
Element, the jurisdiction gets a proposal for 30
units on the site, but only five of those units are
affordable.
Unless the jurisdiction had a buffer, there would
be a shortfall of 25 affordable units, and the
jurisdiction would need to rezone or show
additional capacity somewhere else.
The need for a buffer or extra sites is most likely to
arise in affordable units, because of the default
density. However, jurisdictions could run into problems with market-rate units if developments come in at
lower densities than anticipated. For example:
A jurisdiction listed a two-acre site, zoned at 15
units per acre, for a total of 30 above moderate
units. If the actual development is 20 units,
there would be a shortfall of 10 above
moderate units.
If both examples happened, the jurisdiction would
remain in compliance for above moderate because the
shortfall of 10 is more than offset by the 25 extra from the first scenario. However, they would still need to
make up the 25 low and very low units on another site
or through rezoning.
A jurisdiction can provide a RHNA buffer in several
ways. The most common is including more sites than
necessary in the inventory. Other ways to buffer are to be conservative about the capacities of sites in the
inventory, be conservative in estimating affordable
units on sites (especially those zoned at default
densities or above) or rezoning sites to a density above what is needed to accommodate the allocation.
While it is important to be realistic about what can
feasibly be built on the inventory sites, these buffers give jurisdictions needed flexibility over the planning horizon to stay in compliance with state law, since
many factors affect development trends and decisions.

Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation
PO Box 18 Brooks, California 95606 p) 530.796.3400 f) 530.796.2143 www.yochadehe.org Treatment Protocol for Handling Human Remains and Cultural Items Affiliated with the Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation
The purpose of this Protocol is to formalize procedures for the treatment of Native American human remains, grave goods, ceremonial items, and items of cultural patrimony, in the event that any are found in conjunction with development, including archaeological studies, excavation, geotechnical investigations, grading, and any ground disturbing activity. This Protocol also formalizes procedures for Tribal monitoring during archaeological studies, grading, and ground-disturbing activities.
I. Cultural Affiliation
The Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation (“Tribe”) traditionally occupied lands in Yolo, Solano, Lake, Colusa and Napa Counties. The Tribe has designated its Cultural Resources Committee (“Committee”) to act on the Tribe's behalf with respect to the provisions of this Protocol. Any human remains which are found in conjunction with Projects on lands culturally-affiliated with the Tribe shall be treated in accordance with Section III of this Protocol. Any other cultural resources shall be treated in accordance with Section IV of this Protocol.
II. Inadvertent Discovery of Native American Human Remains Whenever Native American human remains are found during the course of a Project, the determination of Most Likely Descendant (“MLD”) under California Public Resources Code Section 5097.98 will be made by the Native American Heritage Commission (“NAHC”) upon notification to the NAHC of the discovery of said remains at a Project site. If the location of the site and the history and prehistory of the area is culturally-affiliated with the Tribe, the NAHC contacts the Tribe; a Tribal member will be designated by the Tribe to consult with the landowner and/or project proponents.
Should the NAHC determine that a member of an Indian tribe other than Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation is the MLD, and the Tribe is in agreement with this determination, the terms of this Protocol relating to the treatment of such Native American human remains shall not be applicable; however, that situation is very unlikely.
III. Treatment of Native American Remains
In the event that Native American human remains are found during development of a Project and the Tribe or a member of the Tribe is determined to be MLD pursuant to Section II of this Protocol, the following provisions shall apply. The Medical Examiner shall immediately be notified, ground disturbing activities in that location shall cease and the Tribe shall be allowed, pursuant to California Public Resources Code Section 5097.98(a), to (1) inspect the site DocuSign Envelope ID: 0D69CDD2-A513-4BF7-A2E6-01DD9D465223 177
Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation
PO Box 18 Brooks, California 95606 p) 530.796.3400 f) 530.796.2143 www.yochadehe.org of the discovery and (2) make determinations as to how the human remains and grave goods should be treated and disposed of with appropriate dignity.
The Tribe shall complete its inspection and make its MLD recommendation within fortyeight (48) hours of getting access to the site. The Tribe shall have the final determination as to the disposition and treatment of human remains and grave goods. Said determination may include avoidance of the human remains, reburial on-site, or reburial on tribal or other lands that will not be disturbed in the future.
The Tribe may wish to rebury said human remains and grave goods or ceremonial and cultural items on or near the site of their discovery, in an area which will not be subject to future disturbances over a prolonged period of time. Reburial of human remains shall be accomplished in compliance with the California Public Resources Code Sections 5097.98(a) and (b).
The term "human remains" encompasses more than human bones because the Tribe’s traditions call for the burial of associated cultural items with the deceased (funerary objects), and/or the ceremonial burning of Native American human remains, funerary objects, grave goods and animals. Ashes, soils and other remnants of these burning ceremonies, as well as associated funerary objects and unassociated funerary objects buried with or found near the Native American remains are to be treated in the same manner as bones or bone fragments that remain intact.
IV. Non-Disclosure of Location of Reburials
Unless otherwise required by law, the site of any reburial of Native American human remains shall not be disclosed and will not be governed by public disclosure requirements of the California Public Records Act, Cal. Govt. Code § 6250 et seq. The Medical Examiner shall withhold public disclosure of information related to such reburial pursuant to the specific exemption set forth in California Government Code Section 6254(r). The Tribe will require that the location for reburial is recorded with the California Historic Resources Inventory System (“CHRIS”) on a form that is acceptable to the CHRIS center. The Tribe may also suggest that the landowner enter into an agreement regarding the confidentiality of site information that will run with title on the property.
V. Treatment of Cultural Resources
Treatment of all cultural items, including ceremonial items and archeological items will reflect the religious beliefs, customs, and practices of the Tribe. All cultural items, including ceremonial items and archeological items, which may be found at a Project site should be turned over to the Tribe for appropriate treatment, unless otherwise ordered by a court or agency of competent jurisdiction. The Project Proponent should waive any and all claims to ownership of DocuSign Envelope ID: 0D69CDD2-A513-4BF7-A2E6-01DD9D465223 178

PO Box 18 Brooks, California 95606 p) 530.796.3400 f) 530.796.2143 www.yochadehe.org Tribal ceremonial and cultural items, including archeological items, which may be found on a Project site in favor of the Tribe. If any intermediary, (for example, an archaeologist retained by the Project Proponent) is necessary, said entity or individual shall not possess those items for longer than is reasonably necessary, as determined solely by the Tribe.
VI. Inadvertent Discoveries
If additional significant sites or sites not identified as significant in a Project environmental review process, but later determined to be significant, are located within a Project impact area, such sites will be subjected to further archeological and cultural significance evaluation by the Project Proponent, the Lead Agency, and the Tribe to determine if additional mitigation measures are necessary to treat sites in a culturally appropriate manner consistent with CEQA requirements for mitigation of impacts to cultural resources. If there are human remains present that have been identified as Native American, all work will cease for a period of up to 30 days in accordance with Federal Law.

ADDENDUM I
Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation
Tribal Monitors
Description of Work and Treatment Protocol
I. Preferred Treatment
The preferred protocol upon the discovery of Native American human remains is to (1) secure the area, (2) cover any exposed human remains or other cultural items, and (3) avoid further disturbances in the area.
II. Comportment
All parties to the action are strongly advised to treat the remains with appropriate dignity, as provided in Public Resource Code Section 5097.98. We further recommend that all parties to the action treat tribal representatives and the event itself with appropriate respect. For example, jokes and antics pertaining to the remains or other inappropriate behavior are ill advised.
III. Excavation Methods
If, after the Yocha Dehe Tribal representative has been granted access to the site and it is determined that avoidance is not feasible, an examination of the human remains will be conducted to confirm they are human and to determine the position, posture, and orientation of the remains. At this point, we recommend the following procedures:
(A) Tools. All excavation in the vicinity of the human remains will be conducted using fine hand tools and fine brushes to sweep loose dirt free from the exposure. (B) Extent of Exposure. In order to determine the nature and extent of the grave and its contents, controlled excavation should extend to a full buffer zone around the perimeter of the remains. (C) Perimeter Balk. To initiate the exposure, a perimeter balk (especially, a shallow trench) should be excavated, representing a reasonable buffer a minimum of 10 cm around the maximum extent of the known skeletal remains, with attention to counter-intuitive discoveries or unanticipated finds relating to this or other remains. The dirt from the perimeter balk should be bucketed, distinctly labeled, and screened for cultural materials. (D) Exposure Methods. Excavation should then proceed inward from the walls of the balk as well as downward from the surface of the exposure. Loose dirt should be scooped out and brushed off into a dustpan or other collective device. Considerable care should be given to ensure that human remains are not further impacted by the process of excavation.

Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation
PO Box 18 Brooks, California 95606 p) 530.796.3400 f) 530.796.2143 www.yochadehe.org (E) Provenience. Buckets, collection bags, notes, and tags should be fully labeled per provenience, and a distinction should be made between samples collected from: (1) Perimeter Balk (described above), (2) Exposure (dirt removed in exposing the exterior/burial plan and associations, and (3) Matrix (dirt from the interstices between bones or associations). Thus, each burial may have three bags, “Burial 1 Perimeter Balk,” “Burial 1 Exposure Balk,” “Burial 1 Matrix.”
Please note the provisions below with respect to handling and conveyance of records and samples.
(F) Records. The following records should be compiled in the field: (1) a detailed scale drawing of the burial, including the provenience of and full for all human remains, associated artifacts, and the configuration of all associated phenomena such as burial pits, evidence for preinterment grave pit burning, soil variability, and intrusive disturbance, (2) complete a formal burial record using the consultants proprietary form or other standard form providing information on site #, unit or other proveniences, level depth, depth and location of the burial from a fixed datum, workers, date(s), artifact list, skeletal inventory, and other pertinent observations, (3) crew chief and worker field notes that may supplement or supercede information contained in the burial recording form, and (4) photographs, including either or standard photography or high-quality (400-500 DPI or 10 MP recommended) digital imaging.
(G) Stipulations for Acquisition and Use of Imagery. Photographs and images may be used only for showing location or configuration of questionable formation or for the position of the skeleton. They are not to be duplicated for publication unless a written release is obtained from the Tribe.
(H) Association. Association between the remains and other cultural materials should be determined in the field in consultation with an authorized Tribal representative, and may be amended per laboratory findings. Records of provenience and sample labels should be adequate to determine association or degree of likelihood of association of human remains and other cultural materials.
(I) Samples. For each burial, all Perimeter Balk soil is to be 1/8”-screened. All Exposure soil is to be 1/8”-screened, and a minimum of one 5-gallon bucket of excavated but unscreened Exposure soil is to be collected, placed in a plastic garbage bag in the bucket. All Matrix soil is to be carefully excavated, screened as appropriate, and then collected in plastic bags placed in 5- gallon buckets.
(J) Human remains are not to be cleaned in the field.

PO Box 18 Brooks, California 95606 p) 530.796.3400 f) 530.796.2143 www.yochadehe.org (K) Blessings. Prior to any physical action related to human remains, a designated tribal representative will conduct prayers and blessings over the remains. The archaeological consultant will be responsible for insuring that individuals and tools involved in the action are available for traditional blessings and prayers, as necessary.
IV. Lab Procedures
No laboratory studies are permitted without consultation with the tribe. Lab methods are determined on a project-specific basis in consultation with Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation representatives. The following procedures are recommended:
(A) Responsibility. The primary archaeological consultant will be responsible for insuring that all lab procedures follow stipulations made by the Tribe.
(B) Blessings. Prior to any laboratory activities related to the remains, a designated tribal representative will conduct prayers and blessings over the remains. The archaeological consultant will be responsible for insuring that individuals and tools involved in the action are available for traditional blessings and prayers, as necessary. (C) Physical Proximity of Associations. To the extent possible, all remains, associations, samples, and original records are to be kept together throughout the laboratory process. In particular, Matrix dirt is to be kept in buckets and will accompany the remains to the lab. The primary archaeological consultant will be responsible for copying all field records and images, and insuring that the original notes and records accompany the remains throughout the process. (E) Additional Lab Finds. Laboratory study should be done making every effort to identify unanticipated finds or materials missed in the field, such as objects encased in dirt or human remains misidentified as faunal remains in the field. In the event of discovery of additional remains, materials, and other associations the tribal representatives are to be contacted immediately.
V. Re-internment without Further Disturbance
No laboratory studies are permitted on human remains and funerary objects. The preferred treatment preference for exhumed Native American human remains is reburial in an area not subject to further disturbance. Any objects associated with remains will be reinterred with the remains.

Housing
State law recognizes the vital role local governments fulfill in the supply and affordability of housing. State Law requires the American Canyon City Council to adopt a comprehensive, long-term General Plan for the physical development of the city. One of the seven mandated elements of the General Plan, the Housing Element is the City's key plan for addressing housing needs in through 2031.

Published under separate cover, the 2023 Housing Element Background Report provides data and analysis that informs the 2023 Housing Element Policy Document (herein called the Policy Document). Sections of the Background Report include:
• Needs Assessment: an assessment of demographic, and economic trends, as well as a discussion of projected housing needs through 2031.
• Sites Inventory and Analysis: identifies residential capacity to meet the identified housing needs for all income levels.
• Constraints on Housing: identifies governmental and non-governmental constraints to residential development.
• Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH): analyzes fair housing data and issues in the City to proactively further fair housing.
• Other Requirements: summarizes public outreach effort, General Plan consistency, and other requirements. • Evaluation of the Previous Element: describes housing production in the 5th Housing Element Cycle (2015- 2022) and evaluates the effectiveness of implementation programs.
Policy Document
The Policy Document establishes the City's housing action plan for the 6th Cycle Housing Element (2023-2031). The Policy Document includes nine goal statements. Under each goal statement are policies to help the City achieve that goal. Implementation programs, listed at the end of the Policy Document, describe the specific actions the City will take to achieve its housing goals. The implementation programs also identify the City agencies or departments with primary responsibility for carrying out the program and the time frame to accomplish the program.
The following definitions describe the nature of goals, policies, implementation programs, and quantified objectives as they are used in the Policy Document:
• Goal: The ultimate purpose for an effort that the City wants to achieve. • Policy: A specific guideline for actions with a directive to achieve a goal. • Implementation Program: An action, procedure, program, or technique that carries out the policy.
Implementation programs specify primary responsibility for carrying out the action and an estimated timeframe for its accomplishment. These timeframes are general guidelines and may be adjusted based on City staffing and budgetary considerations.
• Quantified Objective: The number of housing units the City expects to be constructed, conserved, or rehabilitated; or the number of households the City expects will be assisted through Housing Element programs 185

H-42 | American Canyon Housing Element Policy Document, Public Review Draft Quantified Objectives
State law requires that the Housing Element contain quantified objectives for the maintenance, preservation, improvement, and development of housing (Government Code Section 65583b). The quantified objectives, shown in HTable 1, establish the maximum number of housing units by income category that can be constructed, rehabilitated, and conserved over the eight-year planning period given available resources in the community. State law recognizes that the total housing needs identified by a community may exceed available resources and the community's ability to satisfy this need.

American Canyon Housing Element Background Report, Public Review Draft | 1-1 Chapter 1
Introduction
Public Participation
The Housing Element must reflect the values and preferences of the community.
Accordingly, community participation is an important component of the development of this Element. Section 65583(c)(8) of the Government Code states that the local government must make “a diligent effort to achieve public participation of all economic segments of the community in the development of the housing element.” This process not only includes community members, but also participation from local agencies and housing groups, community organizations, and housing sponsors.
American Canyon provided opportunities to solicit input from stakeholders and community members through stakeholder interviews, community pop-up events, workshops, a housing survey, a project-specific website, and public hearings.
Public Noticing
To reach the largest and broadest spectrum of community members and stakeholders, the following notification methods throughout the update to the Housing Element were used.
1. Advertisement in the City Manager’s Update, which has 13,543 subscribers.
2. Regular posts to the City’s social media accounts, including NextDoor (7,225 members) and Facebook (5,159 followers) announcing the housing survey and community workshops.
3. Regular “e-blasts” to list of 2,070 stakeholders, including organizations, businesses, housing managers, and community members.
4. Community workshops were advertised on the community calendar events and public meeting agendas.
5. Distributed printed flyers and postcards at pop-up-up events, as described below.
Housing Survey
The project website hosted an online housing survey for 127 days (from January 10, 2022, to May 16, 2022) that allowed the public to provide feedback on housing needs, current housing conditions, and opportunities for housing 234
1-2 | American Canyon Housing Element Background Report, Public Review Draft programs. The survey was available in Spanish translation. There were 166 survey participants. Forty percent of the respondents from the digital survey stated that they own a home in American Canyon. Nearly sixty percent of the respondents from the digital survey stated that lack of affordable housing options to buy is their top concern. Thirty-six percent of the respondents from the digital survey stated that lack of affordable housing to rent is their top concern.
The input provided by the participants included the following major themes:
• The biggest housing needs facing American Canyon are lower-priced housing and opportunities for first-time homebuyers.
• The future of American Canyon’s housing needs are primarily more housing options priced so that younger families can afford to live in the city and repairs for older homes.
• Respondents found a need for promoting equal access to fair housing choice as well as fair housing education and landlord/tenant counseling services.
• Respondents reported a need for down payment assistance programs, as well as low-cost home repair programs.
• Accessory dwelling unit programs desired include advice on planning an ADU and financial assistance.
• Down payment assistance was identified as the most needed housing assistance service.
• Advice on ADU types and financial assistance were the most requested ADU assistance service.
Additionally, a second mini-survey was conducted during community pop-up events conducted between January and August 2022, including Pride, Juneteenth, Meet Me In The Street, and National Night Out. The mini-survey was available in digital and print versions that allowed the public to provide feedback on the most important housing issue. Fifty-one percent of the respondents stated that they own a home in American Canyon. Fifty-six percent of the respondents from the digital survey stated that lack of affordable housing options to buy is their top concern.
The surveys provided local and qualitative context to quantitative data collected for the Housing Needs Assessment and Assessment of Fair Housing, and informed program design.
Project Website
To further facilitate the distribution and gathering of information, the City created a separate project website dedicated to the General Plan Update, including the Housing Element update. The project website provided detailed background information on the Housing Element, frequently asked questions, 235
CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION
American Canyon Housing Element Background Report, Public Review Draft | 1-3 educational videos and articles, and a calendar of meetings and events. Project materials associated with the Housing Element update were regularly posted on the project website, including documents from the community survey and information before and after community workshops. A link on the website enabled people to sign up for project email updates and a City staff contact to provide comment at any time throughout the project process. Website content was available in English and Spanish. The project website is available at:
https://stories.opengov.com/americancanyonca/published/oD3fjKDBX Stakeholder Interviews
To gather local expert-level knowledge and input on the Housing Element Update, three small group interviews were conducted on March 14, 21, and 25, 2022. The City contacted 168 stakeholders, including organizations, businesses, housing managers, and community members. The following organizations serve special needs households or renters, providing affordable housing, or offer fair housing services, and participated in stakeholder interviews:
• Affordable Housing and Market-Rate Housing Developers Working in American Canyon and Napa and Sonoma Counties (March 14, 2022) o Charles Durrett, Architect
o Rick Hess, RH Hess Development
o Andrew Killeen, Executive Director, Sonoma Napa Habitat for Humanity
o Adam Lind, Project Manager, DR Horton
o Erica Roetman Sklar, CEO, Napa Valley Community Housing • Fair Housing Providers, Interest Groups, and Representatives of Special Needs Populations (March 21, 2022)
o Elaine Clark, Executive Director Napa/Solano Area Agency on Aging
o Tracy Lamb, Executive Director, NEWS Domestic Violence & Sexual Abuse Services
o Pablo Zatarain, Executive Director, Fair Housing Napa Valley • Housing and/or Service Providers Working in American Canyon (March 25, 2022)
o Lark Ferrell, City of Napa (staff to the Housing Authority of City of Napa which contracts with American Canyon for housing services)
o Ali Gaylord, MidPen Housing, Director of Housing for North Bay o Renee Schomp, The Napa Sonoma ADU Center
236
1-4 | American Canyon Housing Element Background Report, Public Review Draft Each stakeholder interview consisted of at least five guided discussion questions to solicit input from participants on housing topics the groups is most acquainted with. Interview notes are available in Appendix A.
The input provided by the stakeholder interviewees included the following major themes:
• There is a need for more areas that allow a mix of uses. Locating housing near services can help affordable projects compete for state funding. • Development standards should allow for more flexibility. • Funding is a bigger barrier than zoning in getting affordable housing built. State funding programs are competitive, and local funding can help projects compete.
• Parking requirements are seen as necessary given the community context (still largely auto dependent), but those same requirements can prevent projects from achieving the maximum density.
• One way to facilitate building housing is to publicly fund or build infrastructure or conducting studies to assist developers. • All special needs populations struggle to find housing (homeless, those with mental or physical disabilities, large families, seniors, farmworkers, and very low-income households). Participants noted that much progress has been made on providing homes for homeless veterans.
Stakeholder interviews provided additional context to the data gathered for the Housing Needs Assessment, the Assessment of Fair Housing (Appendix C), and informed policy and program design.
Community Pop-Up Events
At all community pop-up events, the City promoted the Housing Element survey, and responses to the survey were incorporated into the Housing Needs Assessment, the Assessment of Fair Housing, and other relevant sections of this Housing Element.
American Canyon Middle School Event
On April 21, 2022, City staff hosted an educational, interactive pop-up event at the American Canyon Middle School. The pop-up event materials included posters explaining the General Plan Update and Housing Element Update, flyers to advertise a workshop, hard copies of the housing survey, comment cards, and a sign-in sheet. An additional 35 housing surveys were completed. Public comments identified lack of affordable housing as the largest housing issue. 237

Evaluation of Previous
Housing Element
The Evaluation of the Previous Housing Element illustrates accomplishments that were achieved during implementation of the City’s 5th Cycle Housing Element. Policies in the 5th Cycle Housing Element addressed the following:
• Providing sufficient residential land with adequate infrastructure to accommodate the City’s fair share of projected growth, and to facilitate mobility within the ownership and rental markets.
• Providing a range of housing types within the community to accommodate a variety of incomes and lifestyles, and to enable residents to remain in American Canyon throughout their lives. • Creating neighborhoods that have a high degree of livability and protecting existing neighborhoods from the adverse effects of development.
• Maintaining and improving the condition of the existing housing stock. • Addressing the housing needs of all economic segments of the existing and future community, including the City’s fair share of the regional housing need.
• Preserving the City’s existing affordable housing stock and ensuring the long-term affordability of subsequent affordable units. • Promoting housing opportunities for special needs groups and for all people regardless of race, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability, marital status, ancestry, or national origin. • Encouraging sustainable residential development and energy conservation in new and existing housing.
• Maximizing attainment of housing goals and ensuring Housing Element programs are implemented in a timely manner.
For this update, the City reviewed and evaluated the progress in implementing the 5th Cycle Housing Element. Table 2-1 and Figure 2-1 show the City’s progress toward meeting the 5th Cycle RHNA. As of January 2022, the City has permitted 577 units, including 182 very low-, 109 low- and 143 moderate-income units.
Further, 385 units were constructed in the 5th Cycle, including the Canyon Ridge Apartments (149 units), Valley View Senior Apartments (72 units), and the Village Vintage Ranch (162 units) in 2021. Although construction of very lowand low-income units has not kept pace with the identified housing need, in 244
2-2 | American Canyon Housing Element Background Report, Public Review Draft 2021 the City permitted 124 very low-income and 66 low-income units, more than enough to accommodate the remaining need.

Implementation Programs, below, outlines the 5th Cycle Housing Element programs and evaluates the results and effectiveness of each (through 2021).
Most importantly, it reveals program successes and provides a recommendation for each program moving forward. As shown in the table, many of the programs are required or designed to directly address an identified constraint or special housing need. These programs should be continued in the 6th Cycle Housing Element update. Additionally, in the 6th Cycle, HCD requires jurisdictions to provide specific objectives with quantified metrics within Housing Element programs. The recommendation column identifies programs that should be revised to add specific objectives, metrics, and a process to monitor progress throughout the planning period.

American Canyon Housing Element Background Report, Public Review Draft | 2-3 Implementation Programs
Evaluation of American Canyon 2015 Housing Element
Programs Objective Timeframe Status of Program Implementation Recommendation A Program I.2.1: No-Net-Loss Evaluation Procedure
To ensure sufficient residential capacity is maintained to accommodate the RHNA need, the City will develop
and implement a formal ongoing (project-by-project)
evaluation procedure pursuant to Government Code
Section 56863. Should an approval of development
result in a reduction of capacity below the residential capacity needed to accommodate the remaining need
for lower-income households, the City will identify and re-zone sufficient sites to accommodate the shortfall.
In particular, if one of the five commercially-zoned sites identified as allowing for exclusively residential uses (i.e., sites 20, 22, 23, 25, or 34) is developed with uses other than residential or the site is developed with
fewer residential units than counted in the sites
inventory, the City will identify additional sites within the city that will allow for exclusively residential uses.
The outcomes of this evaluation and monitoring shall
be contained within the City annual housing reports
submitted to HCD as required pursuant to GC Section
65400.
Policies 2.1.1,
2.1.2 Project review
is ongoing with
annual report
to HCD
In 2021, Site 11 was rezoned from Estate Density to
Medium Density. This rezoning action increased housing
unit potential from 10 units to 85 units for an overall increase of 75 units.
In 2018, the HFP Church was approved on 1.53-acres of a five-acre site (Site 22). In 2019, the City rezoned the property to Downtown Core, which increased the housing
density on the remaining 3.65 acres from 20 du/ac to
35du/acre. This rezone increased the dwelling unit potential on the site to 127 dwelling units which is an increase of 62 dwelling units. Adding the 75 additional units from Oat Hill, the overall residential capacity is increased by 137 units.
In 2020, the Home2Suites Hotel project was approved on
1.98 acres (Site 25). This approval reduced the number of developable housing units by 25. This 25-unit decrease is offset by Site 11 and 22 for a net gain of 112 dwelling units.
In 2019, Site 18 was rezoned to Home Improvement. This
rezoning reduced the number of developable housing units by 25. This rezoning is offset by Site 11 and 22 for a net gain of 87 units.
In 2019, the Broadway Materials site (Site 26) was rezoned to Home Improvement. This rezoning reduced the number
of developable housing units by 25. This rezoning is offset by Site 11 and 22 for a net gain of 62 units.
The Napa Cove affordable housing project was approved on two parcels – one that was included in the housing
inventory (Site 27) and one that was not identified in the inventory for a net increase of 56 dwelling units and an overall increase of 118 dwelling units.
Sites in the Broadway District, Oat Hill, and Watson Ranch were rezoned to accommodate additional housing
opportunities. These will be identified in the 6th Cycle Housing Element.
Required; modify as
appropriate.

2-4 | American Canyon Housing Element Background Report, Public Review Draft Programs Objective Timeframe Status of Program Implementation Recommendation B Program I.2.2: Maintain Inventory of Developable
Sites
To ensure adequate sites are available throughout the
planning period to meet the City's RHNA, the City shall continue to annually update an inventory that details
the amount, type, and size of vacant and underutilized
parcels to assist developers in identifying land suitable for residential development. The inventory shall also
describe in detail the number of extremely low-, very
low-, low-, and moderate-income units constructed
annually. The City shall post the inventory on the City website and make it available at the Planning
Department counter.
Policy 2.1.1 Update
annually
An inventory of housing sites and the number of permits issued in 2020 is available on the City’s website and front counter for the Planning Division. The City approved the Broadway District Specific Plan (BDSP) in July 2018, which identifies a capacity of 1,200 new units in the Broadway District. Furthermore, the City approved the Oat Hill
multifamily project that includes 291 apartment units on two parcels. One parcel is a new addition to the current inventory. The second parcel is included in the current inventory but the approval includes a General Plan
Amendment and Zone Change to increase the density from
one unit per acre to 8.5 units per acre.
Required; continue in
the 6th Cycle
C Program I.2.3: Priority Sewer and Water Service for
Affordable Housing
The City shall adopt policies and procedures to provide priority sewer and water service for developments that
include lower income housing units, consistent with
State law (Government Code Section 65589.7).
Policy 2.1.3 December of
2015
The City modified its Sewer and Water Service to put
affordable housing as the first priority in July of 2019. The update was codified in American Canyon Municipal Code
(ACMC) Section 13.10.020.
Completed; delete.
D Program I.2.4: Incentives for Second Units
The City shall explore and adopt, as appropriate,
programs and incentives for encouraging second units.
Possible approaches may include, but are not limited
to, preparing an informational manual that describes
the permitting procedures for second units, a preapproved design template for second units, reduced fees for second units, and technical or financial
assistance for homeowners who agree to rent their
second units at affordable rates.
Policy 2.2.4 Explore and
adopt programs
and/or
incentives by
2018
The City adopted new guidelines and standards for Second Units, or Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) in 2017 to align with new provisions in Government Code Section 65852.2.
The new standards were codified in ACMC Section 19.39.
New incentives for ADU’s remove water and wastewater
capacity fees, reduce parking and fire sprinkler
requirements, and proportionally reduce remaining impact fees.
In 2018, staff created two handouts that explain the
building permit and zoning requirements for ADUs.
The City joined the Napa-Sonoma ADU coalition to develop ADU outreach materials and fee estimating software in
March 2019.
The City revised the ADU ordinance to comply with the new state laws in August 2020.

Housing Needs
Assessment
Key Findings
• American Canyon is expected to grow faster than other cities in Napa County over the next 20 years.
• American Canyon is the most racially/ethnically diverse city in Napa County.
• Residents' mean one-way commute time is nearly 40 minutes, and the city is a net exporter of workers.
• Household sizes and the proportion of households with children is larger than the rest of the county, and household sizes are trending higher.
• Renter households are overcrowded at higher rates than residents who own their homes, and more acutely at the low-income range. Renters, especially lower-income households, also tend to be more likely to be cost burdened, paying more than 30 percent of their income on housing expenses.
• The majority of homes in the city are single-family detached homes.
Mobile homes are the second-largest category of housing type. About thirty percent of housing units were built before 1980 and can be assumed to need rehabilitation.
• Many seniors own their own homes, and frequently own mobile homes.
Introduction
The Housing Needs Assessment analyzes the demographic, socioeconomic, and housing characteristics of the City of American Canyon with the intent to identify specific housing needs for the city’s current and future residents. Key components of this assessment include population and employment trends, household characteristics, and an analysis of housing conditions. This Needs Assessment establishes a baseline from which housing recommendations can be made for the Housing Element.
Housing needs data in American Canyon are compared to Napa County.
Although certain demographic characteristics may differ between American Canyon and Napa County, many of the housing trends and needs in the city are 260
3-2 | American Canyon Housing Element Background Report, Public Review Draft common throughout the wider County area. Establishing an understanding of the local housing needs will help the city determine how much and what type of housing to plan for.
This chapter includes the following sections:
• Population and Employment Trends
• Existing Households
• Housing Characteristics
• Special Housing Needs
Population and Employment Trends
This section relies primarily on population, housing, and employment data published by the U.S. Census, the California Department of Finance (DOF), and the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG), specifically from the ABAG Pre-Reviewed Data Package, as indicated in the table sources.
Background
The City of American Canyon is located in southern Napa County, just north of Solano County and the city of Vallejo. The city is located approximately 45 miles west of Sacramento along Interstate I-80 and is approximately 5.5 square miles.
American Canyon incorporated in 1992. Since its incorporation, the city has increased residential development and added business and commercial development along Highway 29 and in the Green Island Industrial Park in the northern part of the City. In 1990, the Census Bureau reported the population of the American Canyon Census Designated Place (CDP) as 7,706. The city experienced rapid growth between 1995 and 2005, from 8,689 to 14,197 residents, a 45.3 percent increase. However, population growth slowed between 2005 and 2010, during the recession as housing development was impacted. Between 2015 and 2022, population increased just 5.7 percent, from 20,481 to 21,658. The Department of Finance (DOF) estimates that the city had a population of 21,658 in 2022. Table 3-1 shows population growth trends for American Canyon from 1995 to 2022.

American Canyon Housing Element Background Report, Public Review Draft | 3-5 Demographics
American Canyon has become more diverse over the last two decades. The composition of American Canyon’s population has historically differed from the countywide and statewide populations, with a smaller proportion of individuals of Hispanic/Latino origin and a larger proportion of individuals of Asian/Pacific Islander origin in comparison. Over the last two decades, the Hispanic/Latino population and Asian/Pacific Islander population have both increased.
Figure 3-2 compares the racial and ethnic composition of the population of American Canyon from 2000 to 2019. In 2000, the majority of the population in American Canyon was white; however, since 2000 the proportion of white residents decreased. By 2010, the largest racial/ethnic group was Asian/Pacific Islander, making up 33 percent of the population. In 2020, the Asian/Pacific Islander population represented the largest racial/ethnic group (36.8 percent), followed by the Hispanic/Latino population (28.0 percent), and the white population (21.4 percent).

Employment Trends
American Canyon is a net exporter of workers, with 9,639 employed residents and 4,447 jobs according to the 2015-2019 ACS. The ratio of jobs to resident workers is 0.46. As shown in Figure 3-3, the largest percentage of employed 264
3-6 | American Canyon Housing Element Background Report, Public Review Draft residents held jobs in the Health & Educational Services Industry (40.1 percent).
Significant percentages of workers were also employed in Manufacturing, Wholesale, & Transportation (19.2 percent); Financial & Professional Services (12.4 percent); and Retail Industries (10.6 percent). The County of Napa has a similar composition of employment by industry but has a larger percentage of the employed population working in Financial & Professional Services and Agriculture & Natural Resources.
Recent estimates released by the California Employment Development Department (EDD) show American Canyon’s unemployment rate was 3.2 percent as of March 2022. This rate is the same as the County of Napa whose unemployment rate was 3.2 percent.
Figure 3-3: Employment by Industry
U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Data (2015-2019), Table C24030 Of the employed workforce, 79.6 percent commuted to work driving alone. The mean travel time was 37.3 minutes one way. Due to the relatively small geographic size of the city, this indicates many of the city’s residents commute to jobs outside of the city. These drive times are higher than the countywide average of 25.6 minutes.
The largest areas for employment within American Canyon are the Industrial area in the northwest portion of the city and the Commercial District along Highway 29, which bisects the community. Major employers in the city, shown in Table 3-4, include Walmart, industrial warehousesfor manufacturing, storage, and wine production. As stated above, the average drive times in relation to 265

This area includes the downtown core, business park, home improvement, mixed-use, and residential neighborhoods. With buildout of the Broadway District Specific Plan, higher-density development will accommodate mixed-use and highdensity housing as well as commercial uses in the geographical center of the city. To the east of Highway 29, development of the Town Center, facilitated by the Watson Ranch Specific Plan adopted in October 2018, includes mixed-use developments and affordable housing with walkable neighborhoods and a commercial center.
According to the California Employment Development Department (EDD) 2018- 2028 industry employment projections for Napa County, employment, which includes self-employment, unpaid family workers, private household workers, farm employment, and nonfarm employment, is expected to reach 94,100 by 2028, an increase of 9.5 percent over the 10-year projection period. Table 3-5 shows annual average employment projections by industry sector. Total nonfarm employment is projected to grow by 7,600 jobs by 2028. Projected nonfarm job growth is concentrated in two industry sectors:
• The leisure and hospitality sector is projected to add 3,300 jobs. • The manufacturing sector is projected to add 2,300 jobs. 266

Most jobs expected to be created over the next 10 years will be in industries employing low- and moderate-income individuals in manufacturing, leisure and hospitality, and other industries. However, because American Canyon’s employment base is relatively small, a single or small number of large employers moving to or expanding in the city could significantly affect the local employment mix.
Employee Wages
Table 3-6 shows wage data in Napa County in 2020. The median hourly wage was $17.57 an hour with an annual mean wage of $47,760. This data does not include median wages specifically for American Canyon; however, it does provide useful wage information for similar industries in the city. In 2020, food preparation and serving-related jobs had the lowest annual wages followed by personal care and service work and farming, fishing, and forestry jobs.
Management, legal, and healthcare jobs had the highest wages. 267

3-10 | American Canyon Housing Element Background Report, Public Review Draft Household Characteristics and Trends
The characteristics of the city's households can be further evaluated by examining the number of households, household size, composition, age, the proportion of family households (two or more related persons), the proportion of families with children, the number of single-parent households, and the age of householders. A change in any of the above characteristics can signify what the current and future demand of housing might be. These are important indicators in comparing demographic and population growth to housing demand.
Household Trends
Households are defined by the US Census as all persons who occupy a housing unit, which may include single persons living alone, families related through marriage or birth, and unrelated individuals living together. Persons living in retirement or convalescent homes, dormitories, or other group living situations are not considered households per the U.S. Census.
The number of households in American Canyon has slightly decreased in recent years. In 2019, the total number of households in American Canyon was 5,296.
Figure 3-4 illustrates the numerical change in household growth from 2010 to 2019.
Figure 3-4: Household Growth Trends in American Canyon (2010–2019) Source: US Census. 2010-2019 Census ACS 5- Year Estimates Household sizes are increasing in American Canyon. In 2020, two-person and four-person households made up the largest percentage of households in the city. Countywide the proportion of single-person and two-person households was greater than in American Canyon, while the city had a higher percentage of households with three to seven members. This distribution of households by size is consistent with other data showing that the city houses more families with children and a larger average family size. The lower proportion of older 269
CHAPTER 3 HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT
American Canyon Housing Element Background Report, Public Review Draft | 3-11 adults in the city compared to the county is also a factor, as older adults tend to comprise mostly single-person or two-person households.
In 2000, most households were comprised of one and four persons. The percentage of households with five or more persons increased between 2000 and 2010 by about 14 percent, from 11 percent to 25 percent of all households.
In 2020 the percentage of households with five or more persons stayed the same at 25 percent. The proportion of households with five or more persons was much higher than the county (12.1 percent). Additionally, the number of single- and two-person households in American Canyon decreased slightly between 2010 and 2020. (Table 3-7)

The average household size in owner-occupied units was 3.41 and the average household size of a renter-occupied unit was 3.49. The 2007- 2011 ACS also reported that over three-fourths (84.2 percent) of all households in the city were family households, compared to 68 percent countywide (Figure 3-5). Half (50.2 percent) of all households were families with kids—much higher than the countywide rate of 31.6 percent.

U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Data (2015-2019), Table B11001 Overcrowding
The U.S. Census defines overcrowding as a unit with 1.01 persons to 1.5 persons per room excluding bathrooms and kitchens. Units with more than 1.5 persons per room are considered severely overcrowded and can lead to increased health and safety concerns. Increases in the intensity of persons within a given space can also place additional stress on existing housing stock and infrastructure.
Overcrowding typically results when either: 1) the cost of available housing with enough bedrooms for larger families exceeds a family’s ability to afford such housing, or 2) unrelated individuals (such as students or low-wage adult workers) share a dwelling unit due to high housing costs. Renters are generally more impacted by overcrowding due to the inability to find affordable rental units that are large enough to accommodate their family without causing overcrowding, as shown in Figure 3-6. In American Canyon, approximately 2.9 percent of owner households were overcrowded and 15.3 percent of renter households were overcrowded.

For many households, housing cost is the largest monthly expense. Those who overpay for housing, also known as cost burdened, may have difficulty affording other basic necessities. However, to truly evaluate housing affordability, individual circumstances and factors must be taken into account. These factors include long-term debt, mortgage interest rates, the number of dependent family members in a household, and other large, ongoing expenses (such as medical bills). Since it is impossible to consider each household’s individual circumstances, the 30 percent rule-of-thumb provides a general measure of housing affordability for the average household.
Households that spend more than 30 percent of their income on housing are generally considered to be overpaying, while homes that spend 50 percent or more of their gross income on housing are considered to be severely overpaying.
Although families with large incomes can be affected by overpayment, the impacts are generally greater with low-income households.
As shown in Table 3-8, the percentage of residents overpaying generally decreases as income increases. Renters also typically have a higher percentage of overpayment than owners. In 2018, 62.0 percent of lower-income renter households were overpaying for housing, compared to 42.5 percent of moderate-income households and 11.9 percent of above-moderate income households overpaying for housing.

Source: U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS) ACS tabulation, 2013-2017 release Some households choose to pay over 30 percent of their income on housing for various reasons, such as location, amenities, or other features. Other households choose to pay higher percentages of their income on housing because they may receive tax advantages or are willing to be temporarily costburdened with the knowledge that their income will likely increase, shortening the percentage of payments against their monthly income on a long-term basis.
In contrast, some households must pay a large percentage of their income for housing because lower-cost options are not available.
Household Tenure
Housing tenure refers to a household’s status as a renter or owner of their home.
The decision to rent or own can be affected by factors such as housing cost, housing financing, housing supply, and other constraints. Figure 3-11 shows households by tenure in American Canyon compared to Napa County in 2019.
American Canyon has a higher proportion of owner households than Napa County as a whole, with a homeownership rate of 77 percent compared to 64 percent countywide.

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) calculates the Area Median Income (AMI) for a four-person household for each area of the country for the purpose of determining eligibility for Housing Choice Vouchers and other federal programs. The Napa County 2021 HUD-calculated median income was $101,500. The California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) calculates income levels slightly differently than HUD to determine eligibility for certain state housing programs. The Napa County 2021 HCD-calculated Median Family Income (MFI) was $109,200. For purposes of the Housing Element, the state income definitions are used throughout, except for the data that have been compiled by HUD, which is specifically noted.
The State of California uses five income categories based on the median income:
• Extremely Low-Income: 30 percent or less of the median family income • Very Low-Income: 31 percent to 50 percent of the median family income • Low-Income: 51 percent to 80 percent of the median family income • Moderate-Income: 81 percent to 120 percent of the median family income

Approximately 34.6 percent of households in American Canyon are lower income (earn less than 80 percent of AMI) and 63.3 percent of households are moderate and above moderate income. Of the lower income households, 27.4 percent are extremely low income (earn less than 30 percent of AMI). This distribution of income levels is similar to Napa County. Figure 3-14 shows the proportion of households by household income level in American Canyon and Napa County.

Poverty as defined by the Census Bureau is also a useful measure of income distribution. In 2019, 1,573 residents, or 7.8 percent of the population, were below the poverty level, the same percentage as Napa County. About 44 percent of those under the poverty level were Whites/Non-Hispanic and 16.2 percent were Black or African American alone. American Canyon and Napa County had a lower proportion of people living below the poverty level compared to the entire state. Statewide 2015-2019 ACS data revealed that approximately 13.4 percent of the total state population was below the poverty level.
Housing Costs and Rental Rates
FAIR MARKET RENT
Fair Market Rent (FMR) is defined by HUD as the amount needed to pay the gross rent (shelter rent plus utilities) of privately-owned, decent, safe, and sanitary rental housing of a modest (non-luxury) nature with suitable amenities in a geographic area. The rents are drawn from the distribution of rents of all units that are occupied by recent movers. Adjustments are made to exclude public housing units, newly built units, and substandard units. Fair market rents for Napa County in 2022 are shown in Table 3-12.

HOME PRICES
CoreLogic, a home sales analysis and reporting company, reported that the median home price for single-family residences and condominiums in American Canyon increased by 26.3 percent between 2021 and 2022, from $475,000 to $600,000. Median home prices in Napa County as a whole are on the rise as well, increasing 22.8 percent from 2021 to 2022, from $615,000 to $755,000.
The median home sales price in American Canyon of $600,000 in 2022 was 26 percent less than the County’s median home sales price.
According to Zillow, the typical home value in American Canyon was $753,000 in December of 2021, up 18.4 percent from 2020 ($636,000). Typical home value is seasonally adjusted and only includes the middle price tier of homes. The largest proportion of homes in American Canyon were valued between $500,000-$750,000. By comparison, the typical home value was $768,410 in Napa County and $1,077,230 in the Bay Area overall. Like American Canyon, the largest share of homes in Napa County were valued between $500,000 and $750,000. However, compared to American Canyon Napa County has a larger share of homes valued between $500,00 and $750,000, $1,000,000 and $1,500,000, $1,000,000 and $2,000,000, and greater than $2,500,000. American Canyon has a larger share of homes valued at less than $250,000 and between $250,000 than Napa County. Figure 3-15 shows Zillow Home Value Index (ZHVI) for American Canyon and Napa County. ZHVI is a seasonally adjusted measure of the typical home value and market changes across a given region and housing type, reflecting typical value for homes in the 35th to 65th percentile range. This measure includes all owner-occupied housing units, including single-family homes and condominiums.

Manufactured or mobile homes in mobile home parks are an important source of affordable housing in the city.
There are several mobile home parks located in American Canyon, all located in the southeastern portion of the city, south of American Canyon Road and east of Highway 29. Most of the manufactured subdivisions and mobile home parks have been in existence since the time of incorporation with no current applications for additional mobile home parks. This type of housing is an important source of affordable housing in the city.
PRICES OVER TIME
Median rent in American Canyon has increased 39.6 percent between 2009 and 2019, from $1,540 to $1,730 per month. Figure 3-18 shows how median rent has changed over time. In comparison, median rent in Napa County and the Bay Area as a whole have increased at a faster rate within the past few years compared to American Canyon.

ABILITY TO PAY
Table 3-13 shows the amount a household can afford for housing at each income category and household size without overpaying. The table shows maximum affordable monthly rents and maximum affordable purchase prices for homes.
The affordable prices were calculated using 2021 household income limits published by the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD), conventional financing terms, and the assumption that households spend 30 percent of gross income on housing costs. Households earning the 2021 median income for a family of four in Napa County ($109,200) could afford to spend up to $2,340 per month on housing without overpaying, per this definition.
For renters this is a straightforward calculation, but homeownership costs are less transparent. A household can typically qualify to purchase a home that is two-and-a-half to three times the annual income of that household, depending on the down payment, the level of other long-term debt obligations (such as a car loan), and interest rates. In practice, the interaction of these factors allows some households to qualify for homes priced at more than three times their annual income, while other households may be limited to purchasing homes no more than two times their annual incomes. These factors, interest rates, insurance, and taxes, are held constant in Table 3-13 below to determine maximum affordable rent and purchase price for households of each income category.

According to CoreLogic, the median home sale price in American Canyon is currently (2022) $600,000. This price is not affordable to lower- or moderateincome households in American Canyon.
For rental housing, the analysis suggests that lower-income households would have difficulty affording the median rental price of $1,730. However, moderateincome households would be able to afford this median rental price without overpaying. Moderate-income households can afford monthly rents that approximate or exceed average market-rate rents. Therefore, these households would have less difficulty finding an affordable rental unit in American Canyon. 288

AFFORDABILITY TRENDS
Although homes may be difficult to afford for households of all income levels, homes in American Canyon are more affordable compared to homes countywide. Figure 3-19 shows typical home values throughout Napa County.
American Canyon has the lowest typical home value compared to other jurisdictions in the county and is lower than the countywide average home value of $872,000. Saint Helena has the highest typical home value at $1,900,000.

Housing Stock Characteristics
Government Code Section 65583 (a)(2) requires an analysis and documentation of household characteristics that include housing stock conditions. Figure 3-20 shows housing units by type in American Canyon from 2010 to 2020. Since 2010, most of the new units constructed in the city were multifamily housing units with five or more units, followed by single-family detached homes. 289

3-32 | American Canyon Housing Element Background Report, Public Review Draft Age and Condition of Existing Housing Stock
The age and condition of the housing stock provides additional measures of housing adequacy and availability in many communities. Although age does not always correlate with substandard housing conditions, neighborhoods with a preponderance of homes more than 30 years old are more likely than newer neighborhoods to have a concentration of housing problems related to deferred maintenance, inadequate landscaping care, outdated utilities or interior amenities, and a need for housing rehabilitation.
The year a structure was built can be an indicator of the current condition of the housing unit. Homes of sound construction typically show signs of deterioration and need repair after 30 years if not adequately maintained—some even sooner depending on the construction technique and weather conditions. Figure 3-22 shows the housing units in American Canyon by year the structure was built. In American Canyon, the largest proportion of the housing stock was built 2000 to 2009, with 2,382 units constructed during this period. Since 2010, 5.1 percent of the current housing stock was built, about 279 units. About 29 percent of the housing was built in 1979 or before and can reasonably be assumed to be the proportion of the housing stock most likely to need rehabilitation.

CHAPTER 3 HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT
American Canyon Housing Element Background Report, Public Review Draft | 3-33 Housing Problems
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) periodically receives "custom tabulations" of data from the U.S. Census Bureau that are largely not available through standard Census products. This data, known as "CHAS" data (Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy), demonstrate the extent of housing problems and housing needs, particularly for low-income households. CHAS data is used by local governments to plan how to spend HUD funds and may also be used by HUD to distribute grant funds.
Table 3-14 shows CHAS data on housing problems for households in American Canyon. The four housing problems are incomplete kitchen facilities, incomplete plumbing facilities, more than one person per room, and cost burden greater than 30 percent. These data are used by state and federal housing agencies to show housing problems for multiple income groups both renting and owning.

3-34 | American Canyon Housing Element Background Report, Public Review Draft Vacancy Rates and Housing Occupancy
Vacancy rates are an indicator of existing housing need. The Census Bureau classifies a unit as vacant if no one is occupying it when census interviewers are conducting the American Community Survey or Decennial Census. The difference between the current vacancy rate and optimal vacancy rate is a good measure of whether the market is responding to overall housing needs. Optimal vacancy rates differ between rental housing and for-sale housing. The Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) has set two rates as the regional vacancy objective. For rental housing, a five percent vacancy rate is considered necessary to permit ordinary rental mobility. For for-sale housing, a two percent vacancy rate is considered the threshold to permit ordinary mobility. If vacancy rates are below these levels, residents will have difficulty finding appropriate units and competition will drive up housing prices.
Vacant units make up 3.4 percent of the overall housing stock in American Canyon. The rental vacancy stands at 2.2 percent, while the ownership vacancy rate is nearly zero percent. Figure 3-23 shows the distribution of vacant units by type in American Canyon and Napa County,
Figure 3-23: Vacant Units by Type
Source: U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Data (2015-2019), Table B25004 Of the vacant units in American Canyon, the most common type of vacancy is Other Vacant, with a large proportion of vacant units for seasonal, recreational, or occasional use. Vacant units classified as “for recreational or occasional use” are those that are occupied for short-term periods of use throughout the year.
Accordingly, vacation rentals and short-term rentals are likely to fall in this 293
CHAPTER 3 HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT
American Canyon Housing Element Background Report, Public Review Draft | 3-35 category. The Census Bureau also classifies units as “other vacant” if they are vacant due to foreclosure, personal/family reasons, legal proceedings, repairs/renovations, abandonment, preparation for being rented or sold, or vacant for an extended absence for reasons such as a work assignment, military duty, or incarceration.
Building Permit Activity
Between 2015 and 2019, 382 new housing units were permitted in American Canyon. Of the permits issued during that time, 37.4 percent of permits issued in American Canyon were for above moderate-income housing, 36.9 percent were for moderate-income housing, 10.5 percent were for low-income housing, and 15.2 percent were for very low-income housing. Table 3-15 summarizes building permit activity in American Canyon from 2015 to 2019. The majority of housing units built in this period are moderate-income and above moderateincome units.

Special Housing Needs
Government Code Section 65583 (a)(3) requires analysis of any special housing needs, such as those for persons with disabilities, including developmental disabilities, the elderly, large households, farmworkers, female-headed households, and people in need of emergency shelters. Special housing needs arise due to physical, economic, social, or cultural characteristics or conditions that are present in a substantial percentage of the local population. These characteristics or conditions distinguish individuals from the general population and lead to housing or supportive service needs that are not (or cannot) be met by the private market acting alone. Examples of special housing needs include accessibility for the mobility impaired, transitional housing for those leaving a homeless environment, and housing specifically designed for the physical and social needs of older adults.
Characteristics such as age or physical limitations may be present in a large portion of the population. It is important for the community to accommodate a variety of housing types to serve such special needs groups. For example, disabled-accessible housing or units designed to aid physical limitations of the 294
3-36 | American Canyon Housing Element Background Report, Public Review Draft elderly may be needed in a community with large populations of this age group.
Conversely, a community may have a population of larger, low-income families that need adequately sized housing at a low cost. Affordability issues are also important to groups such as female-headed households, college students, farmworkers, or military personnel. Therefore, the City needs to evaluate the types of special needs groups in order to address special housing needs.
Extremely Low-Income Households
Despite the economic and job growth experienced throughout the Bay Area region since 1990, the income gap has continued to widen. California is one of the most economically unequal states in the nation, and the Bay Area has the highest income inequality between high- and low-income households in the state.
While extremely low-income households are not considered a special needs group by state law, these households encounter a unique set of housing situations and needs.
HCD defines an extremely low-income household as earning less than 30 percent of the AMI. In 2020, a family of four earning less than $32,500 would be considered extremely low-income.
