STAFF REPORT
ITEM NO. _____4_____

Page 1 ends

TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Robert Lopez, Chief of Police
PREPARED BY: Marco Martinez, City Attorney
DATE: July 19, 2023
SUBJECT: ORDINANCE NO. 1504 ADDING SECTION 93.13 TO
CHAPTER 93, TITLE IX OF THE BALDWIN PARK

MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO ADMINISTRATIVE

FINES FOR THE DISCHARGE OR POSSESSION OF

ILLEGAL FIREWORKS

SUMMARY
The purpose of this staff report is to introduce for consideration an ordinance to codify and establish fines specific to the discharge of illegal fireworks in order to protect the health and safety of City residents.

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council: 1) Waive first reading, read by title only and introduce the following Ordinance: AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BALDWIN PARK, CALIFORNIA, ADDING SECTION 93.13 TO CHAPTER 93, TITLE IX OF THE BALDWIN PARK

MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO ADMINISTRATIVE FINES FOR THE DISCHARGE OR

POSSESSION OF ILLEGAL FIREWORKS

FISCAL IMPACT
There are no fiscal impacts related to the adoption of the proposed ordinance since it merely codified and establishes fines specific to the discharge of illegal fireworks. Fiscal impacts related to revenue from collected fines will depend on the enforcement of the discharge of illegal fireworks.

BACKGROUND
The City of Baldwin Park established the current schedule of administrative fines in May of 2006 through Resolution No. 2006-025. The administrative fines for any Code Violation other than a violation of the building and safety code are as follows:

1. A fine of one hundred dollars ($100) for a first Non-Building Code Violation;

2. A fine of two hundred dollars ($200) for a second Non-Building Code Violation issued to the same person within one year of a first Non-Building Code Violation for violation of the same code or ordinance (as defined in BPMC Section 15.02) as was cited in the first Non-Building Code Violation

3. A fine of five hundred dollars ($500) for each additional Non-Building Code Violation issued to the same person within one year of two (or more) previous Non-Building Code Violations for violation of the same code or ordinance as was cited in the previous Non-Building Code Violations.

Page 2 ends

4 3
7 Currently fines associated with illegal fireworks are the same as the fines associated with other non- building code violations of the City’s Municipal Code, and have proven to not be an effective deterrent.

Every year, residents and visitors celebrate the July 4th Independence Day holiday by discharging fireworks. In addition to discharging legally sold fireworks, a significant number of residents, visitors, adults, and minors discharge dangerous illegal fireworks.

The discharge of illegal fireworks has become significant enough that the Police Department receives complaints about illegal fireworks throughout the year. The Police Department works to take enforcement action related to the illegal discharge of fireworks year-round. Enforcement for the discharge of illegal fireworks can be difficult since many people discharge the fireworks intermittently and/or from the privacy of their private backyards. Even if a possible offender or offender address is identified to officers, they must witness a violation to take enforcement action.

Even in cases where administrative citations for the discharge of illegal fireworks are issued, the current amount of the administrative fine is no longer a deterrent since some families pool funds among all invited guests to pay the fireworks fine. Since 2020, the Baldwin Park Police Department had over 1,500 calls for service associated with fireworks.

Because of the fire hazard risks that the illegal fireworks produce, coupled with dry climatically conditions, the City has determined that the public health, safety, and welfare will be served by (1) increasing the fines associated with illegal fireworks for the first and subsequent violations. Recent observations by the Police Department and resident complaints reveal that the fireworks discharge season has started much earlier than in past years and continues for a longer period of time; it is necessary to update the City’s fireworks fines to deter the discharge of illegal fireworks, reduce fire hazards in the community and save lives.

This Ordinance does not change the amount of all other non-building code violations. Instead, it establishes a new category of fines for the illegal discharge of fireworks.

The Ordinance establishes the following administrative fine amounts for violations of Section 93.09 of the Baldwin Park Municipal Code:

1. $1,000.00 for the first violation issued to any person or property address.

2. $2,000 for the second violation issued to any person or property address within five (5) years of the first violation.

3. $5,000 for the third violation issued to any person or property address within five (5) years of the second violation.

4. $5,000 for subsequent violations issued to any person or property address within one (1) year of the third violation.

ALTERNATIVES

1. The City Council may opt to keep the administrative fine schedule for the illegal discharge of fireworks as is.

2. Provide alternative direction to staff.

LEGAL REVIEW
The City Attorney has reviewed and approved it as to form.

BACKGROUND
On October 6, 2021, the Council approved an Affordable Homeownership Expansion Agreement (“AHEA”) with SGV Habitat for the purpose of expanding affordable homeownership projects in the city to benefit low -income families.

homeowners. Low- income families are defined as families that earn 80% or less of the Area Median Income or $100,900 family of four.

On February 16, 2022, the Council approved the form of the agreements to implement an acquisition and rehabilitation housing program to acquire existing homes and rehabilitate them for sale to low - income families utilizing HOME Investment Partnership Program (“HOME”) Funds.

On August 3, 2022, the Council also approved the form of the agreements to implement an acquisition and rehabilitation housing program utilizing Low-Mod funds to acquire existing homes and rehabilitate them for sale to low-income families. The approval of the form and agreements and use of both HOME and Low-Mod funds authorized the CEO to approve real estate purchases and execute the agreements, thus positioning the City to move swiftly in a competitive seller’s market.

On April 5, 2023, SGV Habitat made a presentation updating the City Council on the program and project activities since receiving approval of the Affordable Homeownership Expansion Agreement (“AHEA”) with SGV Habitat.

DISCUSSION
The proposed update to the program will now match each funding source to specific eligible project activities.

Acquisition-rehabilitation: Includes condos, detached homes, and SB 9 lot splits. The latter requires the purchase of a house and later subdivision of the property to enable construction of a new detached house on the back lot.

Each ADU will be financed as the additional ADUs can be constructed in the future using funds from repaid ADU loans. Tentative Launch Date: July 2023.

Owner Occupied Rehabilitation . Includes replacement of roofs, fences, gutters, garage doors, doors; exterior painting; upgraded electrical or plumbing; accessibility upgrades; and correcting code enforcement items. Seven homes have been repaired and completed for income-eligible Baldwin Park homeowners to date.

12779 Torch Street Homes: City-approved funds of $525,000 will directly support the construction of 12 attached 3-bedroom affordable townhomes, including off -site improvements required by the City.

These funds will supplement the City’s original investment of $1.41 million to purchase the Torch site approved in May 2021, which was prior to the City’s approval of the Affordable Homeownership Expansion Agreement. Current activity: The project is currently under review with City staff, for design review and entitlement clearances. Expected Completion: First quarter 2025. 4288 Stewart Avenue Homes : City -approved funds of $1,200,000 will directly support the construction of 16 attached affordable homes, including off -site improvements required by the City.

DATE: July 19, 2023
SUBJECT: Public Hearing and Introduction of Ordinance No. 1505 of The City Council of The City of Baldwin Park,
California, Amending Title XV of The Municipal Code by
Adding Chapter 157 Titled “Permit Process for Electric
Vehicle Charging and Hydrogen-Fueling Stations.”

SUMMARY
Assembly Bill 1236 (AB 1236), adopted by the State legislature on October 8, 2015, requires cities to adopt an ordinance to expedite permit processing for applicants looking to install electric vehicle charging stations.

AB 1236 was adopted to limit the restrictions that cities and counties could impose on applicants installing electric vehicle charging stations, to achieve timely and cost-effective installation of electric vehicle charging stations, which has been deemed by the legislature to be a matter of statewide concern.

Assembly Bill 970 (AB 970), adopted by the State legislature on October 8, 2021, sets forth certain timing obligations applicable to cities when fulfilling their function of processing electric vehicle charging station permits.

Senate Bill 1291 (SB 1291), adopted by the State Legislature on September 16, 2022, adopted a similar permitting scheme to hydrogen fueling stations and extended the provisions of AB 970 to hydrogen fueling stations.

This ordinance follows the mandates set forth in AB 1236 and SB 1291 and would streamline processing of applications for electric charging stations and hydrogen fueling stations throughout the City. In addition, the relevant members of staff are confirming in connection with adoption of this ordinance that they are prepared to implement the appropriate timeline for permit processing as required by AB 970.

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended the City Council:

1. Open and conduct a Public Hearing

2. Introduce, read by title only, Ordinance No. 1505 entitled: "AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY

COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BALDWIN PARK, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING TITLE XV OF THE

Page 2 ends

4 6
8 MUNICIPAL CODE BY ADDING CHAPTER 157 TITLED “PERMIT PROCESS FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING STATIONS AND HYDROGEN-FUELING STATIONS.”

3. Find that the adoption of this Ordinance is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it has no potential for resulting in a physical change to the environment, pursuant to Section 15308 of the CEQA Guidelines-Actions by Regulatory Agencies for Protection of the Environment.

FISCAL IMPACT
There will be no impact to the General Fund as a result of the adoption of this Ordinance.

BACKGROUND
AB 1236 and SB 1291 are part of the State’s efforts to modernize and facilitate the installation of electric vehicle charging stations and hydrogen fueling stations throughout the State. In furtherance of this goal, the State is requiring that cities and counties throughout the State adopt ordinances setting forth guidelines to facilitate expedited review and processing for electric vehicle and vehicle charging stations.

The attached ordinance complies with the requirements set forth in AB 1236 and SB 1291 by requiring that the City administratively approve applications that comply with the City’s checklist and limit review to whether the installation would comply with safety and performance standards.

In addition, AB 970 requires an application to install an electric vehicle charging station to be deemed complete if, either 5 business days or 10 business days after the application was submitted, depending on the number of electric vehicle charging stations proposed in the application, the city has not deemed the application to be incomplete or issued a written correction notice detailing all deficiencies in the application. Then, AB 970 requires an application to install an electric vehicle charging station to be deemed approved if 20 business days or 40 business days after the application was deemed complete, depending on the number of electric vehicle charging stations proposed in the application, (1) the city has not approved the application, (2) the building official has not made a finding that the proposed installation could have an adverse impact upon the public health or safety or required the applicant to apply for a use permit, (3) the building official has not denied the permit, and (4) an appeal has not been made to the planning commission of the city. Relevant City staff are aware of these timing requirements and are prepared to comply with them in connection with the adoption of this Ordinance.

ALTERNATIVES
If the City decides not to enact this ordinance, the City may be in violation of Government Code 65850.7.

CEQA REVIEW
The adoption of this Ordinance is not a project under the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act, because it has no potential for resulting in a physical change to the environment. This Ordinance is exempt pursuant to Section 15308 of the CEQA Guidelines-Actions by Regulatory Agencies for Protection of the Environment, because it is a regulatory action taken by local ordinance to assure the maintenance, restoration, enhancement, or protection of the environment.

LEGAL REVIEW
This report has been reviewed and approved by the City Attorney as to legal form and content.

HOUSING ELEMENT LAW AND ASSOCIATED AMENDMENTS TO THE ZONING CODE (AZC NO. 23-02, Z NO. 23 -02) ADDING CHAPTER 153.112 (HOUSING ELEMENT RE -USE SITE OVERLAY ZONE) AND MODIFYING CHAPTER 153.030 AND THE ZONING MAP”

FISCAL IMPACT
There will be no impact to the General Fund as a result of the recommended action.

BACKGROUND
Baldwin Park’s General Plan describes the goals, policies, and programs for how the City plans to grow and change. The plan includes sections called “elements” that address Housing, Land Use, Public Safety, Circulation, Urban Design, Noise, Open Space and Conservation, Air Quality, Economic Development, and Health and Sustainability. In California, General Plans serve as a blue print for all future development. The current Baldwin Park General Plan was adopted in 2002 with a separate Housing Element last adopted in 2013 and a new Health and Sustainability Element adopted in 2015.

Every eight years, Baldwin Park and all other Cal ifornia jurisdictions are required under State law to revise and update their individual Housing Elements. It is also the only general plan element that is required to be updated on a regular schedule, typically referred to as “cycles.” The City’s current 5th Cycle Housing Element was adopted in 2013 and covers the planning period from 2014-2021. This 6th Cycle Housing Element will cover the period from 2021 -2029. The Housing Element is subject to detailed statutory requirements and mandatory review and cer tification by the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD).

In conjunction with the adoption of the 6th Cycle Housing Element, State law requires additional amendments to other elements of the general plan. Specifically, Senate Bill 124 1 (SB 1241) requires that a City’s Safety Element must be updated when the Housing Element is updated to include policies and strategies to reduce the risk of fire in high fire hazard severity zones and address the effects climate change. In addition, Sena te Bill 1000 (SB 1000) and Senate Bill 244 (SB 244) require that environmental justice goals, objectives, and policies be incorporated into the general plan when two or more elements are revised concurrently.

The City is committed to complying with State law and conducting meaningful actions to affirmatively further fair housing, improve outcomes for environmental justice communities, support special needs groups, and create an attractive environment for affordable housing in the community. The City is well underway toward these goals, which are reflected in these General Plan Amendments, and which are being implemented currently through the following efforts:

• The City has established a collaborative regional partnership with neighboring jurisdictions to conduct an inclusionary housing study, complete accessory dwelling unit (ADU) streamlining measures including stock plans, and identify solutions to homelessness.

Page 3 ends

• The City has purchased land and supported two new tiny home transitional housing communit ies for homeless families and individuals within the last two years.

• The City directed approximately $5 Million dollars in special funds including American Rescue Plan Act dollars to Habitat for Humanity for critical home repair, construction, and affordable homeownership.

• The City is actively coordinating with local religious institutions regarding affordable housing options on properties within the community.

• The City is currently working with affordable housing developers on projects that would add over 175 affordable housing units to the community in the near term, including 36 permanent supportive housing units that will serve extremely low -income households at the former Motel 6, an affordable senior housing development (55 units; Central Met ro Place), and 51 units to serve low -income families at 14617 Ramona.

• Expansion of Barnes Park: In FY21/22 the City was awarded a $3.1 million grant from the Proposition 68 Statewide Park Program to acquire 0.18 acres of vacant land to expand the existing park and create a new playground, shade structures, two basketball courts, one futsal court/mini -pitch soccer field, individual picnic areas, public artwork, parking lot, ornamental safety fencing, stormwater capture and infiltration, and lighting and landscaping throughout the park.

• Big Dalton Wash Greenway project: In FY21/22 the City was awarded $2.5 million grant from Proposition 68 Statewide Park Program to create the new Big Dalton Wash Trail Greenway connecting to Hilda Solis Park and Walnut Creek Park. The project includes construction of a new approximate 2.8 mile/non-motorized trail with four public art pieces, including a mosaic and mural, and the installation of both LED and solar lighting and landscaping throughout the greenway. Four pocke t parks are also proposed.

• Susan Rubio Zocalo Park. This new 2.75-acre park will be located directly northwest of Baldwin Park City Hall at the intersection of Pacific and Maine Avenues to Sterling Way in Downtown. The park will open in 2023 with art ad ornments, decorative lighting, pavilion, accessible pathways, bike lanes and wayfinding signage and provide connectivity to the Baldwin Park Transit Center and the Metrolink station.

• North Pocket Park: A new pocket park will be located at the northwest corner of Maine Avenue and Joanbridge Street. The land was acquired by the City in 2022; park design and programming are planned for 2023.

• Youth Training Program: In May 2022, the City approved funding for a youth training program provided by Goodwill S outhern California (GSC). The program provides work experience and job training for youth in Baldwin Park.

DISCUSSION

Community Outreach
Over the last 2.5 years, staff has been working intently with the City’s consultant (MIG) to complete amendments to the Housing Element, Safety Element, and Health and Sustainability Element to meet the housing, safety, and environmental justice element state law requirements. During this time, a broad cross section of the community was engaged in order to incorporate resident input, feedback, and ideas

Page 4 ends

into the various aspects of the project, including:

· Housing Element: Community outreach for the Housing Element update included a community workshop and an online housing survey. The workshop was advertised to the local community, housing advocates, and service providers and was provided in English and Spanish. The Housing survey was completed by 110 residents, and provided insights into current housing challenges, areas where new housing is most desired ( near transit), and opportunities to convert motels into housing. The draft Housing Element was available for public review and an online comment form was created to provide an easy way for residents and interested parties to comment on the document. Commen t letters/responses in the online comment form were received from a community resident regarding ongoing outreach to community groups such as People United of Baldwin Park and LA Voice who are in conversation with tenants, Abundant Housing LA, with recommendations for housing production and best practices, Californians for Homeownership, and Southwest Mountain States Regional Council of Carpenters regarding hiring local workforce in building trades. These comments, along with the comments received during the online surveys and workshops, were considered and incorporated into the General Plan Amendments.

· Health, Sustainability, and Environmental Justice Element: In conjunction with the Housing Element update, an environmental justice lens was added to the Health and Sustainability Element, in compliance with State law requirements. A community workshop in 2021 gave residents an opportunity to provide insight regarding environmental justice topics of concern and potential strategies and solutions. An online survey replicating the workshop, available in English and Spanish, was completed by 123 residents and stakeholders in Baldwin Park.

· Safety Element: The update to the Safety Element, required by state law, was focused on technical analysis and requirements. In drafting revisions to address climate change, and especially evacuation and emergency response, LA County Fire Department, Baldwin Park Police Department, and Baldwin Park’s Public Works Department reviewed procedures, maps, and recommended modifications.

· Study Sessions: Four workshops were held with the Planning Commission and City Council in 2021 to receive input from the community and direction from decision makers on the approach to meeting the RHNA and potential housing implementation programs, as well as safety and environmental justice strategies.

· HCD Review: During the most recent phase of the project (in 2022 and 2023), staff and MIG have been coordinating with the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) to review the City’s Draft Housing Element (discussed in more detail below).

The community input gathered during this process has reaffirmed the critical issues facing Baldwin Park: housing availability to all economic segments of the community and community enh ancements that support environmental justice. The drafting of the General Plan Amendments, each of which is described in more detail below, was guided by the public input received. The public engagement activities referenced above consisted of:

1. Updates to the City’s Webpage, social media posts, and direct emails to comprehensive stakeholder list: ongoing

Housing Sites Inventory (Chapter 5)
Housing law mandates that the City plan to meet the projected housing needs of all economic segments of the community through zoning and policy actions. The City’s housing needs are quantified in the Regional Housing Need Assessment (RHNA), which includes housing construction targets at all income levels. All local governments are required to provide opportunities to address their share of the housing needs as established by the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) and allocated by the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG). In March 2021, SCAG adopted the final RHNA Plan, with Baldwin Park’s RHNA for the 2021-2029 planning period set at 2,001 housing units (Table 1).

The RHNA represents the minimum number of housing units Baldwin Park is required to plan for in its Housing Element by providing “adequate sites” through general plan designations and zoning. In the Housing Element, the City must show that adopted zoning and General Plan policies provide opportunities for, and do not unduly constrain, housing development. State law does not require that the City build or finance new housing. Rather, the City must provide sufficient housing sites zoned at various densities to accommodate a mix of housing products (e.g., accessory dwelling units (ADUs), single-family, duplexes, townhomes, and apartment units).

State law requires that jurisdictions demonstrate in the Housing Element that between proposed projects and a land inventory that is available, there are adequate sites to accommodate the RHNA.

Housing units that have been approved or proposed but not yet built or that are under construction as of June 30, 2021 may be credited toward the RHNA. (Approved and proposed projects identified in the Housing Element total 286 units.) To accommodate the remaining RHNA of 1,715 units, production of accessory dwelling units during the planning period are estimated, and vacant and underutilized sites in residential and mixed-use zones and in Downtown are identified (Table 3).

Table 3 indicates more than adequate capacity to accommodate the RHNA. Providing a buffer for the lower-income categories is important to maintain sufficient capacity in the event a developer elects to construct market -rate housing or nonresidential uses on sites planned for affordable housing. This requirement of state law is referred to as “no net loss.”

The Housing Element demonstrates that Baldwin Park can accommodate the RHNA of 2,001 units within the context of existing land use policy, meaning that no properties will need to be rezoned to accomplish this capacity. However, multiple programs in the Housing Element will n eed to be implemented to ensure constraints to housing development are removed and development of new housing in the community is encouraged.

Housing Plan (Chapter 2)
The Housing Plan chapter includes Goals, Policies and Programs aimed at supporting housi ng development throughout the city. The City’s overarching objective is to facilitate housing that fulfills the diverse needs of current and future residents. Housing Element policies and programs are intended to show how the City will comply with State housing law and support the production of affordable housing.

Policies set the general framework for each goal, while programs include specific actions that the City must take and include quantifiable objectives that will be used to report the City’s progress on Housing Plan Implementation to the State annually. Ongoing policies and programs that remain relevant have been carried over from the previous Housing Element. New policies and programs have been included in alignment with recent State law changes.

The Housing Plan contains 33 implementation programs, some of which have been updated and carried over from the 5th Cycle of the Housing Element. The programs illustrated below are the most notable programs of the draft Housing Element, are required by State law, and incorporate modifications required by the State of California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) based on their review of the draft Housing Element.

• Program H2 -4 (Consider Inclusionary Housing Ordinance): The City will study and if shown to be appropriate for Baldwin Park, adopt an inclusionary housing ordinance and program. Implementation on this program is already underway, with a study currently ongoing through a regional effort between Baldwin Park, South El Monte and El Monte.

• Program H3-1 (Adequate Sites): The City will monitor and review development trends every two years.

If more non -residential development is being proposed or built on mixed -use sites than residential development (over 50 percent), then within six months the City will adopt additional performance standards to ensure residential construction.

• Program H3-3 (ADUs): Implement ADU incentives and educational programs (including pre-approved stock plans) and identify an ADU specialist within the Plannin g Department. Annually monitor ADU permit applications and approvals; if, at the midpoint of the planning period, target numbers anticipated in the Housing Element are not met, identify and implement additional incentives (such as technical assistance or expedited services) or identify alternative sites.

• Program H3 -4 and H3 -8 (Address Homelessness): Amend the zoning code to reduce parking for emergency shelters, consistent with State law, Convert at least one hotel or motel into permanent supportive housing for extremely low-income households experiencing homelessness, and participate in regional efforts to end homelessness. This program is currently underway with supportive housing at the former Motel 6.

• Program H3 -6 (AB 1397 Reuse of Sites): For site s identified in Appendix B as subject to AB 1397 (sites that were also used in a previous Housing Element cycle), create a housing overlay that allows residential use by right for housing developments in which at least 20 percent of the units are affordable to lower-income households and allows development at 30 units per acre, regardless of lot size.

• Program H3-10 (Development on Religious Institution Sites): Create standards and a review process for the establishment of affordable housing via a Religious Institution Housing Ordinance.

• Program H4-1 (Mixed Use-2 Zone): Consider revisions including a reduction to required commercial components and other changes to make the standards clearer and more user-friendly.

• Program H4-3 (Minimum Unit Size): Track developer interest in smaller units and, based on interest, consider removing the minimum unit size requirement to provide for flexibility in unit types and sizes.

• Program H4-4 (Zoning Code Update): Adopt objective design standards to ensure that th e City can provide local guidance on design and standards for by -right projects as allowed by State law. (The Objective Design Standards project is currently underway.) Amend the Zoning Ordinance to comply with state laws, including AB 2011 (allowing affordable housing on commercially zoned lands) and AB 2097 (prohibits jurisdictions from requiring parking in certain locations).

• Program H4 -5 (Density Bonus and Development Incentives): Provide, when possible, developer incentives such as expedited permit processing for units that are affordable to lower -income households, including extremely low-income households. Direct all applicants applying for variances to use the State Density Bonus law to accommodate waivers from development standards instead, with a goal of at least one project every other year applying for a Density Bonus.

• Program H4-7 (Supportive and Transitional Housing): Update the Development Code to comply with AB 2162 (Supportive Housing Streamlining Act) which requires supportive housing to be considered a use by right (ministerially permitted) in zones where multi-family and mixed use are permitted, including nonresidential zones permitting multi-family uses. Update the Development Code to allow Low-Barrier Navigation Centers by right in areas zoned for mixed-use and nonresidential zones permitting (by right or conditionally) multi-family uses, consistent with AB 101.

• Program H4 -11 (Residential Care Facilities): Review and revise the Zoning Code to add small residential care facilities (six or fewer persons) as a permitted use in Mixed Use zones. Review and revise the Zoning Code as needed to allow large residential care facilities (seven or more persons) in residential zones with objectivity and certainty, treating the use similarly to other residential uses.

• Program H5-4 (Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing):

• Adopt an official affirmative marketing policy designed to attract renters and buyers of protected classes for Housing Authority and City -funded affordable housing projects , with the goal of reaching those least likely to apply.
• Pursue funding and target neighborhoods in lowest opportunity areas for rehabilitation, parks, transit, and active transportation. Ensure economic development plans reflect the needs of lower -opportunity neighborhoods. Establish a priority list of investment projects in high need areas (based on factors such as environmental justice communities designation, proportion of low/moderate income households, and opportunity index scores).
• Increase access for residents so that all residents are located within a ten -minute walk to parks and open space by prioritizing the development of new pocket parks, green and public space in high need areas of the city, and renovate existing park facilities to improve access and use. • Develop a pedestrian improvement plan that identifies needs and prioritizes projects in high pedestrian traffic areas and most deteriorated infrastructure.
• Prioritize community and stakeholder engagement during controversial development decisions by meeting with community groups such as People United of Baldwin Park, LA Voice and housing rights organizations who are uniquely aware of local tenant needs biannually. • Research and develop anti -displacement policies including relocation ass istance for low -income tenants who are displaced from their units because of housing demolition, substantial rehabilitation, change of use, or removal of restrictions placed on subsidized housing.

Housing Element HCD Review Process
In the previous (5th cy cle) Housing Element update cycle, the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) would conduct a 60 -day review of a draft Housing Element, which included reviewing and providing comments on a jurisdiction’s draft Element as submitted. In the same 60-day period, the jurisdiction would propose suggested revisions in response to HCD comments. HCD would review and provide additional comments, if necessary. At the end of the 60 -day review, HCD and the jurisdiction in general had an agreed upon edited Draft Housing Element for the jurisdiction’s adoption process. The jurisdiction would then adopt the Draft Housing Element.

The housing crisis in California has since led the legislature to adopt a myriad of housing laws that place mandates on cities to approve housing at a faster rate. Since 2017, the Governor has signed dozens of housing bills aimed at reducing barriers to housing production, which apply to this 6th cycle (2021-2029). In this Housing Element cycle, in general, HCD staff has not been able to work with cities to discuss revisions within the 60-day review period. Instead, at the end of the review period, HCD has provided letters outlining revisions and clarifications needed to comply with evolving State law. Typically, HCD has required two, three, or even four rounds of 60 -day review for every draft Element.

Baldwin Park submitted its first draft Element in October 2021, following a year of significant public engagement and drafting of the Housing Element. HCD provided commen ts at the end of a 60 -day period. The City revised the Housing Element to add significant additional analysis, information, and program actions to address comments provided in the December 28, 2021 letter from HCD, and made the revised version available to the public for review. The City submitted the revised document to HCD for a second 60 -day review on September 9, 2022. On November 8, 2022, HCD provided comments on the second draft noting that further analysis and discussion were required regarding affir matively furthering fair housing and suitability of nonvacant sites and realistic capacity assumptions, and

Page 10 ends

additional program actions were required to support accessory dwelling unit production, address homelessness, ensure adequate sites are available, a nd affirmatively further fair housing. The City addressed these additional comments in a revised draft which was made available for public review February 16, 2023 and resubmitted to HCD. During this review period, HCD directed additional revisions, which were made and submitted to HCD on March 31, 2023. With incorporation of these revisions, HCD provided a final comment letter on April 17, 2023 requiring additional minor amendments pertaining to affirmatively furthering fair housing implementation programs and metrics and additional analysis to demonstrate compliance with the Permit Streamlining Act and intersections with CEQA and timing requirements, including streamlining determinations. The City addressed these additional comments and received a verbal confirmation on May 10, 2023 in a call with HCD reviewers Reid Miller and Sohab Mehmood that, with incorporation of these final revisions, the Housing Element would be considered compliant with State Housing Element law.

The Draft submitted to the Planning Commission for its consideration and subsequent adoption by the City Council reflects all of the comments and directed revisions by HCD. City staff is also required to submit the Housing Element, post adoption, to HCD for final certification to ensure th at the document remains precisely the same as the previously reviewed drafts, incorporating all of the required changes directed by HCD.

Safety Element
Government Code Section 65302(g) requires all local jurisdictions to update their General Plan Safety Element upon each revision of the housing element or local hazard mitigation plan, but not less than once every eight years. The purpose of the Safety Element is to identify and address natural and human-made hazards in order to protect the community from risks associated with natural hazards, transportation incidents, hazardous materials and climate change. The City’s existing Safety Element has not been comprehensively updated since 2002. The proposed Safety Element Update includes updated information and adds sections on emergency preparedness, climate change, and adaptation as required by new State laws, including AB 162, SB 1241, AB 747, SB 379, SB 1035, and SB 99. New components include:

· Vulnerability assessment (identifying areas of the City at risk from impacts of climate change) · Fire risk for land classified as very high fire hazard severity zones (no very high fire severity zones exist in Baldwin Park)
· Identification of areas that may require additional evacuation routes · Goals and policies reducing impacts of local hazards, including emergency preparedness · Climate adaptation and resiliency strategies

Environmental Justice Element
The State of California defines environmental justice as “the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of people of all races, cultures, income and national origins, with respect to development, adoption, implementation, and enforcement of laws, regulations and policies.” Senate Bill 1000 (2016) and Government Code Section 65302(h) requires loca l jurisdictions to either adopt a standalone environmental justice element as part of its General Plan or to incorporate environmental justice goals, policies, and programs (collectively, the “Environmental Justice Policies”) into other elements of the General Plan if the jurisdiction contains one or more “disadvantaged communities” also known as “environmental justice communities” upon concurrent adoption or revision of two or more elements of the General Plan.

The Communities Environmental Health Screening Tool (referred to as the “CalEnviroScreen” tool) was

Page 11 ends

developed by the State Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment to identify environmental justice communities in California. These areas have higher pollution burdens and vulnerabilities than other areas, and therefore are most in need of assistance. Environmental justice communities are identified using the following indicators:

• Pollution Burden: Areas disproportionately affected by environmental pollution and other hazards that can lead to negative public health effects, exposure, or environmental degradation; and

• Population Characteristics: Areas with concentrations of people with low incomes, high unemployment, low levels of homeownership, high rent burden, low levels of education atta inment, and/or are sensitive populations (e.g., disabled individuals, seniors, and emancipated foster youth).

CalEnviroScreen produces a percentile ranking of census tracts to demonstrate the degree of burdens present in that tract relative to the rest of the State. For example, a 75th percentile ranking for a census tract would mean that the census tract is in the top 25 percent of all CalEnviroScreen scores statewide—and among the highest burdened census tracts in California. In other words, a high score indicates poor conditions. In 2021, all census tracts in Baldwin Park, except for two, had an overall percentile score in the top 25 percent, qualifying almost the entire City as an environmental justice community. The portions of Baldwin Park located nea rest to the I-605 and I-10 freeways have among the highest pollution hazards and vulnerabilities in the State.

In 2015, in response to available CalEnviroScreen information at the time, Baldwin Park proactively developed a Health and Sustainability Elemen t of the General Plan. The Health and Sustainability Element included broad public participation and set a path forward for the City to frame policies that support positive health outcomes for residents, enhance the environment, and promote well -being in Baldwin Park.

As part of this General Plan Amendment project, the City’s existing Health and Sustainability Element was updated to address SB 1000 and include a focus on environmental justice (and renamed Health, Sustainability, and Environmental Justice Element). Many policies and actions that improve outcomes for environmental justice communities were already included in the Health and Sustainability Element.

New policies identify opportunities for civic engagement and inclusive public participation in th e decision-making process, actions to enhance nonmotorized transportation, provide healthy and safe housing for residents, and enhance local air monitoring and quality. In combination with existing policies, these General Plan Amendments satisfy the requir ements of Government Code Section 65302(h), which sets forth the requirements for Environmental Justice Policies. Revisions to the Health, Sustainability, and Environmental Justice Element are highlighted in yellow.

Zoning Text and Map Amendment (Re-Use of Sites Overlay Zone) California Governmental Code Section 65583.2 requires that vacant sites identified in the 4th and 5th Cycle Housing Elements and non -vacant sites identified in the 5th Cycle Housing Element only be deemed adequate to accommodate a por tion of the housing need for lower -income households if the site is zoned at residential densities consistent with the default density established by HCD (30 units per acre for Baldwin Park) and the site allows residential use by right for housing developments in which at least 20 percent of the units are affordable to lower -income households. To comply with State Housing Element law, the Housing Element includes Program H3 -6 (“AB 1397 Reuse of Sites”) to create a housing overlay that regulates the reuse of sites and comply with Government Code Section 65583.2.
