INTRODUCTION
State law requires all jurisdictions to annually file a report of progress made in implementing programs in the General Plan, including programs contained in the Housing Element. The City’s Draft 2023 General Plan and Housing Element Implementation Annual Report is included in Attachment 1 to this report. This report was presented to the Planning Commission for review at their February 22, 2024 meeting.

The Planning Commission asked minor clarifying questions regarding the content of the report and recommended that staff bring this report forward to the City Council for review. Following City Council review, the report will be submitted to the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) and the State Office of Planning and Research (OPR) in advance of the April 1, 2024 deadline, in accordance with the requirements of Government Code Section 65400.

highlights
accomplishments and
progress made on
programs in the General
Plan. Significant
accomplishments are
noted to the right.

Housing Element: The City adopted its Housing Element for the 2021-2029 planning period on October 12, 2021, amended the Housing Element based on comments received from the state Department of Housing and Community Development
(HCD), and the 2021-2029 Housing Element was re-adopted by the City Council on February 21, 2023. The City submitted a revised version of the Housing Element to HCD for review in October 2023 and received a formal comment letter on
December 15, 2023. The City continues to work with HCD to obtain certification and continues to revise the Housing Element in response to HCD’s feedback.

Open Air Dining: The OpenBH program ended in February of 2024, as the City Council considered and approved new
permanent Open Air Dining Regulations on December 11,
2023. OpenBH was a program implemented during the
COVID-19 pandemic era to assist businesses in maintaining their operations in an open-air environment, such as
restaurants with open air dining areas and parklet dining. In 2023, the City Council directed staff to develop a new Open Air Dining Ordinance that would update the existing open air dining regulations and developed expanded opportunities for outdoor dining/parklet dining and a more streamlined approval process.

The new Ordinance became effective on March 1, 2024, and there are staff dedicated specifically to the Open Air Dining program to provide resources and expedite approvals for restaurant businesses. Staff has created a new web page (www.beverlyhills.org/openairdining) to host all relevant information for the new program, which also allows open air dining applications to be filed with the City electronically.

Furthermore, staff is actively working with the City’s existing and new restaurant operators to ease their transition into the new program and ensure compliance with the new standards.

Office Hours with Doctor Gold: Mayor Gold created a new initiative to provide office hours each month, during which the community is invited to share their ideas, suggestions, and thoughts directly with the Mayor.

People Helping People: Mayor Gold created a new program called “People Helping People”, during which the City Council recognizes Beverly Hills-based charities performing
extraordinary work in the community for various causes. At a City Council Meeting, Mayor Doctor Gold presents the charity with a certificate honoring their work.

Mayor’s Minutes: Mayor Gold created a series titled “Mayor’s Minutes” which showcases a new fun-fact, business or special service every month from those who make the City so unique.

Meeting Date: March 18, 2024

Major Projects Team: Established in 2021, the Major Projects Team is responsible for managing significant development projects from entitlement application phase all the way through to issuance of Certificate of Occupancy, all handled by an integrated unit of development review staff. Over the course of 2023-2024, the Major Projects Team continued managing four active major projects at various stages of development. This includes the One Beverly Hills project, which has had ongoing utility relocation work and is expected to begin major
demolition, excavation, and construction activities in 2024.

Climate Action and Adaptation: Over the course of 2023, the City continued to develop the Climate Action and Adaptation Plan (CAAP). The CAAP will be focusing on greenhouse gas (GHG) mitigation measures, including enhancing building codes for new and substantially remodeled projects, expanding EV charging infrastructure, and implementing organic waste recycling. The CAAP also includes resiliency strategies that focus on water resources, electrical grid resiliency, and community preparedness. The CAAP is anticipated to be
adopted in 2024 by the City Council.

Stormwater Capture: In 2023, the City continued the
construction of the Burton Way Median Green Street and
Water Efficient Landscape Project. The project is expected to be completed in early 2024. The project has the potential to capture approximately 94 acre-feet a year of dry and wet weather urban runoff from 211 acres of drainage area. The captured runoff is treated at the swales and will be used to irrigate the landscape.

Organic Waste Recycling: In 2023, the City implemented an organic waste recycling program to comply with Senate Bill (SB) 1383. The program has the potential to reduce GHG
emissions by 12,993 MTCO2e by 2045.

Water Conservation: The City of Beverly Hills reduced its water use, measured as gallons per capita per day (GPCD), by approximately 30% in the last 10 years. This decrease can be attributed to education, customer service outreach, and implementation of customer tools like “Water Tracker” to inform customers of their water usage and potential water leaks on a property.

Pollution Prevention: City services removed approximately 1,040 tons of debris from street sweeping in 2023. As a result of ongoing maintenance and prevention activities, the City had less than 6 sanitary sewer overflows, with none causing beach closure in 2023.

Water Resources and Quality: The City added a new well to its water resource infrastructure, which increased local water Meeting Date: March 18, 2024

Page 5 of 9 ends

production by 20% in 2023. The City also met all federal and state water quality regulations.

Rent Stabilization Ordinance (RSO): The City is in the
process of completing its sixth Annual Rent Registration cycle for all multi-family properties subject to the RSO. The Rent Stabilization Division monitors approximately 7,800 units of multi-family properties to: promote the stability of renter populations, maintain the quality of the City’s multi-family housing stock, and protect occupants from unreasonable rent increases, while recognizing a housing provider’s right to receive a fair return form the rental property. In 2023, the City kept tenants and landlords informed about the return to regular calculations for allowable rent increases based on the
Consumer Price Index (CPI) following the expiration of local COVID-19 protections and continued to work with the Rent Stabilization Commission on recommendations to the City Council on modifications to the Rent Stabilization Ordinance.

The CAGF is administered by the Human Services Division of the Fire Department, and in FY 2022-23, the Human Services Division issued over $2.1 million through the CAGF. Agencies funded through CAGF provide social services to the most vulnerable members of the community including homeless
individuals, active and frail elderly residents, disabled persons, and low-means residents. By funding a safety net, the City establishes a continuum of care that improves coordination across providers, increases access and availability of services to community members and supports the quality of life in Beverly Hills.

In January 2023, the Human Services Division collaborated with LAHSA (Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority) on the annual point-in-time homeless count and to learn about
regional resources and funding opportunities. As part of the Enhanced Services for the Unhoused program, in November 2022, the City Council authorized the procurement of a
software system designed to track and provide case
management services to the unhoused in Beverly Hills to provide assistance to the unhoused in the community.

Additional service enhancements approved in November 2022 that were implemented in 2023 included launching a hotline for the community to call 24/7 to report people experiencing homelessness and in need of assistance, expanding the City’s homeless outreach teams, and hiring a consultant to develop a comprehensive plan for the City’s homelessness response.

In August 2023, the City Council approved a 10-year
agreement with the non-profit Step Up on Second to provide 30 Meeting Date: March 18, 2024

Page 6 of 9 ends

units of permanent supportive housing for the unhoused
population in the City, as well as up to 280 nights per year of motel night stays, and comprehensive case management
services for the 30 individuals, at a total 10-year cost of $14 million. The program launched in November of 2023 and by the end of December 2023, 10 of the 30 units are occupied by formerly unhoused individuals, with the remaining 20 expected to be filled in the first quarter of 2024.

Affordable Housing: In September 2023, City Council
approved an exclusive negotiation agreement with a non-profit affordable housing developer, West Hollywood Community
Housing Corporation. The agreement is to begin the
negotiations process to potentially develop a 100% affordable senior housing project on a City-owned site at 9268-9298 W. 3rd Street.

In November 2023, City Council approved an agreement with HouseKeys, Inc. for affordable housing program consulting services. The consulting services will include necessary tasks that need to be completed for the affordable housing program such as: updating the City’s affordable housing guidelines, developing program application and compliance guides for the affordable housing rental and homeownership program,
updating preference and priority criteria with the lottery process, including confirmation documentation and
procedures, completing annual compliance certification for existing projects and tenants, and ongoing day-to-day program administrative services during a one-year contract term.

Historic Preservation: In 2023, the Beverly Hills Register of Historic Properties included 45 local landmarks. In 2023, three Golden Shields were awarded to additional cultural points of interest in the City. As of 2023, the Cultural Heritage Commission has identified 29 Golden Shield nominations.

Lot Line Adjustment Ordinance: The City Council adopted an ordinance, effective February 2023, to amend regulations in the municipal code relating to the adjustment of lot lines that would create or expand lots across the jurisdictional
boundaries of the City. The ordinance prohibits lot line adjustments that would adjust a lot line that is coterminous with a boundary of the City to be adjusted away from the City boundary line.

Fractional Ownership Ordinance: The City Council adopted the “Fractional Ownership” ordinance, effective July 2023. The ordinance creates regulations to prohibit certain types of fractional ownership arrangements in both commercial and residential zones. Additionally, the ordinance creates a process by which an individual can request a hearing with the City Council to determine if their circumstances would be
considered a prohibited fractional ownership arrangement.

Meeting Date: March 18, 2024

Urban Lot Split and Two Primary Units Ordinance: In
response to Senate Bill 9 (SB 9), the City Council adopted an ordinance that creates objective standards to ministerially approve both urban lot splits (two-lot subdivision) and/or twoprimary unit projects in single-family residential zones, effective November 2023. These standards also include lot size, unit size, unit height, setbacks, screening, unless otherwise specified, the units must comply with all other- R-1 zoning standards.

Cannabis Ordinance (SB1186): The City Council adopted an ordinance in response to changes to Senate Bill 1186
(SB1186), effective November 2023. The ordinance creates a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) process to allow the
establishment of a non-storefront, delivery-only medical cannabis retail use in the C-3 zone. Additionally, the ordinance establishes Article 21 of Chapter 2, Title 4, which requires a regulatory permit for this type of business, and sets forth application requirements and operational criteria.

The City is currently making progress on a majority of the programs in the General Plan.

Status updates on each program are outlined in the attached report starting on page 7.

Affordable Housing Units and Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) Each year, the City is required to report to the State the number of housing units permitted in the previous calendar year, which is also used to report progress made toward the fulfillment of its Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) allocation.

The RHNA allocation is the minimum number of housing units for which each jurisdiction must provide “adequate sites” through zoning capacity, as assigned by the State and the regional planning agency (Southern California Association of Governments). The City of Beverly Hills was allocated the following RHNA for the 2021-2029 Housing Element Cycle:

TABLE 1 – REGIONAL HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT (RHNA) 2021-2029 Meeting Date: March 18, 2024

Page 8 of 9 ends

During the calendar year of 2023, the City has permitted a total of 51 units that qualify as above-moderate income housing and one unit that qualifies as low-income deed restricted affordable housing, totaling to 52 units. The 52 units comprise of 19 singlefamily homes, 27 accessory dwelling units, and one multi-family residential building with six units. HCD informed the City that a recent statutory change has clarified that all new housing units count towards the City’s RHNA allocation and progress. For the purposes of annually reporting housing production to the State, the City is not required to calculate net new units taking into account demolition of existing units. Therefore, all 52 new housing units permitted in 2023 count toward the City’s RHNA allocation. Table B of the attached HCD Annual Progress Report Form shows the City’s overall progress in meeting the RHNA since the start of the planning period in 2021. The City has permitted a total of 133 housing units since the start of the planning period in 2021, and there are 2,971 units remaining under the City’s RHNA allocation.

Multi-Family Housing Unit Pipeline Tracking
In addition to the housing units permitted in 2023, a large number of multi-family housing units are in the pipeline, either with an approved entitlement or currently under review.

The new housing units in these projects with approved entitlements will be counted towards meeting the City’s RHNA allocation once each project receives building permits.

In 2023, five multi-family project applications were approved, of which four included a State Density Bonus request. In total, 140 housing units received approval in 2023. The 140 housing units approved include 14 deed-restricted units for very low-income households and one deed-restricted unit for low-income households (See “Approved in 2023” in Table 2 below).

Additionally, in 2023, five multi-family housing project applications were submitted for planning entitlements and are currently under review. All five applications are requesting a State Density Bonus. The applications submitted are for multi-family residential buildings, four of which are located in the Mixed-Use Overlay Zone. The projects submitted in 2023 and under review have a total of 190 units, including 24 deedrestricted units for very low-income households. In addition, this table includes four projects that were submitted in previous years, but are still under review in 2023, which include a total of 152 units, including one deed-restricted unit for a low-income household and four deed-restricted units for very low-income households.

Preserva�on Ordinance (Ar�cle 32 of
Chapter 3, Zoning Code) implements
the goals, policies and programs of
the General Plan, and establishes the
review authority of the Cultural
Heritage Commission. Individually
designated historic proper�es, and
proper�es within any future historic

with the City to reduce their property
taxes in exchange for agreeing to
maintain the property’s historic
character. The Mills Act program was
adopted as a pilot program in 2011,
and became permanent in January
2020. The City also adopted an
ordinance to create the Historic
Incen�ve Permit (Ar�cle 32.5 of

Affordable
Housing and
Residen�al
Displacement
The City of Beverly Hills currently has
a deed-restricted affordable housing
project providing 150 units of
affordable rental housing to very-lowincome seniors. This project was originally financed under the HUD
Sec�on 202 program with projectbased Sec�on 8 cer�ficates providing ongoing affordability. This property
has a recorded covenant from 1986
(Document No. 86-704717) that
states “the residen�al por�on of the
property shall be used for housing for
senior ci�zens and handicapped
persons”. In addi�on, this covenant
states that if such uses are
discon�nued, the property shall not
be used to any purpose except one
approved by the City, and that if the
rental rates are no longer subject to
the control of a Federal, State, or
other public agency, that the rental
rates shall be set by the City’s Planning
Commission. This covenant runs with
the property and is binding on future
owners and successors, and
therefore, this project is not
considered to be at risk of conversion
during the planning period, even
though the affordability covenant will
expire in 2028. Furthermore, the City
will con�nue to coordinate with the
Ongoing The City con�nues to implement the current program. The City has one verylow income housing building for seniors, which has an affordability covenant and contains 150 units available to very-low income seniors. Menorah Housing Founda�on owns the airspace containing the units, and manages and administered the units, subject to certain City repurchase rights. In addi�on, the City has commited to ensuring that the Menorah Housing Project site remains affordable senior housing. The project is subject a covenant that require the units to be affordable if, in the future, the rental rates were no longer be subject to the control of a Federal, State, or other public agency.

There was one deed-restricted affordable low-income unit permited in 2023.

Since the adop�on of the current Housing Element on February 21, 2023, the City has permited a total of 55 units that qualify as above-moderate income housing and one unit that qualifies as low-income deed restricted affordable housing. The 54 units comprise of 22 single-family homes, 27 accessory dwelling units, and one mul�-family residen�al building with six units. Since the City is built out, it is assumed that all new single-family homes are replacing a demolished unit and are therefore not counted toward RHNA.

In 2018, the City facilitated the rental of two very-low income units located in a Density Bonus project to qualified renters and will con�nue to monitor these units for compliance. The City con�nues to monitor these units and facilitate the rental of others. In 2020, the City provided training to the owners of a building with three low-income units which were an�cipated to become available in 2021. In 2022, the City also filled two moderate-income rate units located in a new mixed-use building, and in early 2023, started the process of filling the three low-income rate units in a mul�-family building.

The City is commited to complying with the no net loss and replacement requirements of SB 330 and Density Bonus law, and reviews all projects for compliance with these regula�ons.

which will contain one very-lowincome affordable unit, and there are a total of 21 deed restricted
affordable housing units in the
pipeline (either in proposed or
approved projects), and 8 units
contained in conceptual or
preliminary phases. The City has

10.2 Inclusionary
Housing
In 2019, the City established an
interim inclusionary housing program
requiring a minimum percentage of
units in a development to be pricerestricted as affordable to lower- and moderate-income households. The
ordinance also allows the payment of
in lieu fees or provision of off-site
affordable units for projects of a
certain size. The City will con�nue to
implement this program and
contribute inlieu fees generated from
the program to the City’s Housing
Trust Fund.

Any Incen�ves offered under the
Inclusionary Housing program will be

The City adopted an ordinance to establish permanent regula�ons for an inclusionary housing program, a�er considering several studies prepared to analyze the financial feasibility of such a program. This program requires that any new housing development project with more than 5 housing units provide a certain number of affordable units. For projects with 5-9 housing units, 1 affordable unit must be provided, or an in-lieu fee may also be paid.

For projects with 10 or more housing units, 10% of the overall units must be deed-restricted affordable units, though there are addi�onal methods for compliance with this requirement.

ADU interest and produc�on in Beverly Hills con�nues to increase. The City issued building permits for 19 ADUs in 2021, 25 in 2022, and 31 in 2023. Using conserva�ve es�mates, the City an�cipates the construc�on of 150 ADUs throughout the 2021-2029 Housing Element planning period. These numbers for permited ADUs in the City was last reported to the Planning Commission in the staff report for the dra� ADU ordinance of the January 25, 2024 mee�ng, and will also be reported to the City Council in their upcoming staff report on the item. The City will diligently monitor ADU produc�on each year by affordability level. If an average of 20 new ADUs per year are not permited by the end of 2025, including the affordability targets, the City will take appropriate ac�ons to adapt regula�ons depending on the magnitude of the gap in ADU produc�on.

In 2020, the City was approved for funding under the Local Early Ac�on Planning (LEAP) Grant by the California Department of Housing and Community Development to update ADU regula�ons and provide public tools and resources for ADU produc�on. Funding from the Leap Grant supported the development of the dra� ADU ordinance and will be used to implement the City’s forthcoming pre-approved plan program for ADUs as well as future changes to regula�ons pertaining to mul�family ADUs.

Looking ahead, the City is commited to mee�ng ADU produc�on goals, adop�ng updated ADU regula�ons for mul�-family residen�al zones that exceed state requirements by 2025, providing pre-checked ADU plans for public use by 2025, upda�ng the ADU webpage (beverlyhills.org/adu) proac�vely with informa�on for the public, and adop�ng addi�onal ADU construc�on incen�ves if the City does not consistently approve an average of 20 new ADUs per year by 2025.

Developers
In today’s housing market, crea�ve
approaches are required to finance
and build affordable and special
needs housing. Beverly Hills
successfully partnered with the nonprofit Menorah Housing Founda�on to achieve development of 150 units
of affordable senior housing, and has
contracted with Alterna�ve Living for
the Aging for implementa�on of the
senior shared housing program in the
past. Both of these organiza�ons
own and manage numerous
affordable housing developments for
seniors in greater Los Angeles and
can serve as poten�al resources for
future senior housing in Beverly Hills.

Several other local non-profits have
an excellent track record in securing
State and federal funds to build
quality, affordable housing. The City
will ac�vely par�cipate in
conferences, symposiums, and
affordable housing related events
such as: the Southern California
Associa�on of Nonprofit Housing
annual conference.

Enter into an agreement
with affordable housing
developer in 2023 to

In 2022, the City released an RFQ/P to iden�fy qualified development teams that could develop a senior ci�zen affordable housing project on City-owned property. This RFQ/P process includes an assessment of feasible loca�ons for future affordable housing developments. The City has reviewed more than 30 proposals from 13 developers across 7 different sites. The City is in the process of evalua�ng proposals from short listed candidates.

As part of the update to the Housing Element, the City is also crea�ng an internal working group with staff from the Planning Division, Community Services Department, Policy and Management Department, and Rent Stabiliza�on Division to discuss various Housing Element implementa�on programs related to their scope of work.

This outreach seeks to inform both tenants and landlords of tenant protec�ons generally and tenant protec�ons under the RSO in an effort to ensure that tenants remain housed and that tenants in RSO units maintain housing affordability in their rent stabilized unit.

The Rent Stabiliza�on Division collaborates with the City’s Community Services Department and community partners to provide assistance with hoarding issues. The City collaborates with third party contractors including Jewish Family Services and Bet Tzedek to remedy hoarding issues in an effort to ensure that tenants maintain their occupancy.

The Rent Stabiliza�on Division collaborates with other City departments including the Fire Department and the Nurse Prac��oner program, Code Enforcement, Community Services Department and community partners Jewish Family Services and Bet Tzedek to iden�fy needs of seniors and disabled persons requiring assistance in order to allow them to age-in-place.

These collaborators meet monthly to iden�fy and discuss possible assistance measures.

As a part of the updates to the Housing Element, the City has added a number of new policies to address: housing mobility strategies, new housing choices and affordability in areas of opportunity, place-based strategies to encourage community conserva�on and revitaliza�on, and protec�ng exis�ng residents from displacement.

The City con�nues to implement and comply with the regula�ons related to replacement units for proper�es that are redeveloped (per SB 330 and Density Bonus state law), and con�nues to implement the Rent Stabiliza�on Ordinance.

11.4 Senior Home
Sharing
Program
Alterna�ve Living for the Aging (ALA)
provides a free shared housing
program which matches older people
with others (younger and older)
interested in sharing their homes.

Housing counselors at ALA interview
each poten�al housemate and
obtain references, leaving the
decision to the poten�al housemates
whether to make a match. Sharing a
home promotes independent living,
provides addi�onal income for the
provider, an affordable rent for the
seeker, and the poten�al for deeper
rela�onships for both. The average
age of community members in
Beverly Hills is growing older, and
shared housing promotes the
efficient use of the housing stock,
and can help address the housing
needs of seniors in our community.

The City has provided funds to ALA in
the past to help fund their
housemate matching service, and
an�cipates the program will funded

fewer budget constraints. Beverly

The City hired an Urban Designer (FTE) in 2012 to help streamline review of new housing projects and other developments proposed in the City. Through the planning period, the Urban Designer con�nues to review and approve administra�ve permits related to housing projects. Addi�onally, in an effort to streamline permi�ng, the Community Development Department was restructured to form a dedicated group of zoning and building code experts tasked with processing development permits.

In 2021, the Community Development Department created a Major Projects Team to efficiently review significant development projects from en�tlement applica�on all the way through to issuance of Cer�ficate of Occupancy, all handled by an integrated unit of development review staff. Over the course of 2022-2023, the Major Projects Team became fully staffed with Planners, a Senior Plan Review Engineer/Associate Project Manager, Senior Building Inspector, and Management Analyst, and the team is currently managing five ac�ve major projects at various stages of development. In 2022, the Planning Division hired three addi�onal staff members to help expedite the processing of project applica�ons.

In 2022, the City conducted an analysis of recently approved housing project to determine if they are being constructed at the maximum densi�es, and found that most are mee�ng or exceeding maximum allowable densi�es with the aid of state density bonus law.

HOUSING PROJECTS PROGRESS
HOUSING PROJECTS WITH ISSUED BUILDING PERMITS IN 2023
During the calendar year of 2023, the City has permited a total of 51 units that qualify as abovemoderate income housing and one unit that qualifies as low-income deed restricted affordable housing, totaling to 52 units. The 52 units comprise of 19 single-family homes, 27 accessory dwelling units, and one mul�-family residen�al building with six units. HCD informed the City that a recent statutory change has clarified that all new housing units count towards the City’s RHNA alloca�on and progress. For the purposes of annually repor�ng housing produc�on to the State, the City is not required to calculate net new units taking into account demoli�on of exis�ng units. Therefore, all 52 new housing units permited in 2023 count toward the City’s RHNA alloca�on. Table B of the atached HCD Annual Progress Report Form shows the City’s overall progress in mee�ng the RHNA since the start of the planning period in 2021. The City has permited a total of 133 housing units since the start of the planning period in 2021, and there are 2,971 units remaining under the City’s RHNA alloca�on.

MULTI-FAMILY HOUSING PROJECT APPLICATIONS UNDER REVIEW IN 2023 In 2023, five mul�-family housing project applica�ons were submited for planning en�tlements and are currently under review. All five applica�ons are reques�ng a State Density Bonus. The applica�ons submited are for mul�-family residen�al buildings, four of which are located in the Mixed-Use Overlay Zone. The projects under review will total 190 units, including 24 deed-restricted units for very-low income households. Addi�onally, there are four applica�ons, which were submited in 2022, but are s�ll under review in 2023. These applica�on result to a total of 152 units, including one deedrestricted unit for a low income household and four deed-restricted units for very-low income households.

APPROVED MULTI-FAMILY HOUSING PROJECTS IN 2023
The new housing units in these projects with approved discre�onary en�tlements will be counted towards mee�ng the City’s RHNA alloca�on once each project receives building permits. In 2023, five mul�-family project applica�ons were discre�onarily approved, of which four included a State Density Bonus request. In total, 140 housing units received discre�onary approval in 2023. The 140 housing units approved include 14 deed-restricted units for very-low income households and one deedrestricted units for low-income households.

Equity Planning
The City does not have industrial land uses or above-grade extrac�on sites within its boundaries such as landfills, mining opera�ons, factories, mills, or other intensive land uses which have tradi�onally driven equity planning efforts. The City does, however, have districts and neighborhoods that have remained vibrant through the recent downturn in the market, while other areas have struggled with higher commercial and office vacancy rates. The City’s General Plan includes policies and programs that support maintenance and revitaliza�on of the City’s commercial corridors.

To this end, the City has previously undertaken efforts to study land use paterns and neighborhood quali�es in the southeastern area of the City, and launched a task force to develop strategies and a plan to improve these areas. This work con�nued in the Strategic Planning Commitee as they discussed the Southeast Area in 2019. In addi�on, the City Council previously adopted an ordinance establishing a mixed-use overlay zone along many commercial corridors. This expands the type of development and variety of housing units that are available in the city and creates an opportunity to provide housing units without displacing exis�ng residents. This will allow the conversion of exis�ng commercial buildings to mixed-use in areas that previously did not allow residen�al. Height allowed for these projects ranges from three to five stories depending on where a parcel is located. State Density Bonus can be used in mixed-use projects and the affordable housing units that are currently required by the inclusionary housing program in mul�-family zones are also required in the new mixed-use overlay zone. The City is currently processing concept and en�tlement applica�ons for a few mixed-use developments.

As part of the 2021-2029 Housing Element Update, the City has prepared an assessment regarding the City’s efforts to affirma�vely further fair housing. The Housing Element includes Policy H 3.1, which aims to promote fair housing and non-discrimina�on in the sale and rental of housing by coordina�ng with organiza�ons that provide informa�on, counseling and media�on on fair housing laws and landlordtenant disputes. This assessment contains analysis regarding racial segrega�on, poverty, and persons with disabili�es in the City, and whether these act as barriers to fair housing in the City. The assessment concludes that the main challenge is the limited supply and access to affordable housing in the City. The updated Housing Element also contains Implementa�on Program 11.1, which includes steps the City will take to further fair housing and address any issues related to housing discrimina�on. The programs and ac�ons in Implementa�on Program 11.1 are intended to target: Housing Mobility Strategies, New Housing Choices and Affordability in Areas of Opportunity, Place-based Strategies to Encourage Community Conserva�on and Revitaliza�on, and Protec�ng Exis�ng Residents from Displacement.

The City con�nues to implement the Housing Element programs contained in the General Plan. The cost of housing in the Beverly Hills region tends to be high, which can present challenges for long-�me residents to remain in their homes through re�rement (referred to as “aging in place”). The City has previously established an Affordable Housing Program, and adopted an inclusionary housing ordinance in 2021 that applies to mul�-family residen�al and mixed-use projects, and established a Rent Stabiliza�on Division and Commission. In 2023, the City worked with the property owners of 321-327 S.

Elm Drive to open the applica�on process to fill the 3 low-income affordable housing units on the property, and an�cipates that the units will be filled by the middle of 2023.

Promo�on of Infill Development, Reuse, and Redevelopment The City is an urban area that is mostly built out. The City is commited to encouraging the best use of land, and though�ul infill projects are encouraged. The City has previously undertaken various efforts to understand and address poten�al barriers to infill, reuse, and redevelopment including the in-lieu parking study, and the adop�on of an ordinance to reduce parking requirements for restaurant uses in 2021. In addi�on, then-Mayor Gold established a Strategic Planning Commitee in 2018 to analyze the City’s commercial corridors and areas and make recommenda�ons to the City Council regarding ac�ons that can be taken to ensure that the commercial areas remain compe��ve in the regional context, and this work is ongoing.

The City also adopted the Mixed-Use Overlay Zone in 2020, which allows for the conversion of exis�ng commercial buildings in certain areas of the City to be converted to housing, and allows for such buildings to request relief from certain development standards if compliance with such is not physically feasible.

This will act as a catalyst to revitalize commercial corridors and will allow the conversion of exis�ng commercial buildings to mixed-use in areas that previously did not allow residen�al. Height allowed for these projects ranges from three to five stories depending on where a parcel is located. The City has met with several applicants interested in applying for projects that u�lize the mixed-use overlay zone regula�ons, and an�cipates that such projects will be applied for in the near future.

Name of Program Objective Timeframe in H.E Status of Program Implementation

9.1 Upkeep and
Maintenance of Vacated
Buildings
The City requires the exterior of vacated multi-family structures that will be demolished for redevelopment to be adequately maintained as a condition of tentative map approvals and extensions. The City’s Code Enforcement Office (Community Preservation) maintains a list of all vacant properties in the City, monitors the sites, and works with the property owners to assure that the properties are maintained in an appropriate manner. Ongoing The City’s Community Preservation Division maintains a list of vacant buildings and properties and works with property owners to ensure they are maintained.

9.2 Property Maintenance The City requires housing to be maintained in an aesthetic, safe and habitable manner consistent with City codes. The program is run as part of the City’s comprehensive Code Enforcement program (Community Preservation) and is structured as a reactive, complaint driven inspection process. The Community Preservation Division does not perform regular or systematic housing inspections. Ongoing The City continues to implement the current program and addresses several hundred complaints related to property maintenance each year.

9.3 Home Repair and
Improvement
The Handyworker Program (also known as the Residential Rehabilitation Program) provides minor home repair, and improved security and mobility assistance to low-income tenants and homeowners in single- and multi-family units. Assistance is provided at no cost to the qualifying low-income owner or tenant. The City provides community outreach, applicant screening, pre-construction site visits, repairs and remodeling, and confirmation that the property meets the City’s standards for habitability.

Population Served: Extremely Low, Very-Low- and Low- income (up to 80% AMI) households Eligible Repairs: Interior/Exterior Repairs, Energy Conservation Activities, Security/ Safety Improvements Maximum Award Amount:
$15,000
Encourage the re-establishment the Home Repair and Improvement (Handyworker) grants for lower-income households that may be used for accessibility improvements By 2025, or provide alternatives programs by 2026
The City’s Handyworker program previously provided free minor home repairs and security/mobility assistance to low-income tenants and homeowners in single- and multi-family housing units. However, once the COVID-19 pandemic hit in early 2020, the program was put on hold for the safety of the City’s more vulnerable residents. As of 2022, the program is unable to continue because our CDBG consultant cannot find anyone to provide the insurance and indemnification to continue this program.

As part of the update to the Housing Element, the City has committed to re-establishing the Handyworker program by 2025, and that the City will also look at alternative programs to provide these services if the Handyworker program is not re-established by 2026.

9.4 Historic Preservation
Historic Preservation is a tool that can be used to maintain the City’s historic housing stock. Beverly Hills has a rich history and legacy of architecturally significant buildings. The City has adopted a Historic Preservation Element within the General Plan to provide the foundation for the City’s preservation activities. The Historic Preservation Ordinance (Article 32 of Chapter 3, Zoning Code) implements the goals, policies and programs of the General Plan, and establishes the review authority of the Cultural Heritage Commission. Individually designated historic properties, and properties within any future historic district, are required to obtain a Certificate of Appropriateness from the Cultural Heritage Commission prior to obtaining a building permit for alteration or development; minor alterations may be approved by Historic Community Development staff. Beverly Hills’ “Historic Preservation Guidelines” along with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation and Guidelines for Rehabilitating Historic Buildings provide the basis for Commission and staff review of Appropriateness.

The City has implemented and continues to explore incentives to promote the preservation of historic sites and structures. Through the Mills Act program, owners of designated historic single-family residential or commercial theater properties can enter into a contract with the City to reduce their property taxes in exchange for agreeing to maintain the property’s historic character. The Mills Act program was adopted as a pilot program in 2011, and became permanent in January 2020. The City also adopted an ordinance to create the Historic Incentive Permit (Article 32.5 of Chapter 3, Zoning Code), which provides a process for owners of locally designated historic landmarks to request waivers or deviations from certain development standards.

Ongoing
In 2014, the City Council adopted an ordinance creating a Historic Incentive Permit that allows owners of historic landmarks to request deviations from development standards when making modifications to their historic properties, provided that the changes do not adversely impact the character-defining features of the historic resource. The City also has a Mills Act program that allows property owners with landmarked properties to seek property tax relief in return for the long-term maintenance and preservation of a historic property.

9.5 Condominium
Conversions
This program limits the loss of rental housing units due to the conversion of existing apartment buildings to condominiums by setting an annual cap and providing protections for tenants. Currently, apartment buildings proposed for conversion to condominium ownership are subject to the City’s condominium conversion regulations (Beverly Hills Municipal Code Sections 10-2-710, 711, and 712). These regulations set forth a series of tenant protections including tenant noticing, relocation provisions, right of first purchase, and extended lease provisions for senior and disabled households. These regulations also set an annual limit on the number of conversions allowed. • The City will evaluate the effectiveness of the existing ordinance and consider modifying it to require a number of units in any building converted to be set aside as affordable rental or ownership housing. This will be implemented by conducting a study session with the Planning Commission to address this topic by 2025. • The City has previously conducted studies to evaluate the economic feasibility of an in-lieu fee for both commercial and residential developments that would be placed in the City’s Affordable Housing Trust Fund. The City will bring forward another discussion with the Planning Commission regarding the in-lieu fees by 2026, and will continue to evaluate potential partnerships with developers or non-profit organizations to construct affordable housing in the City.

Evaluate ordinance revisions to address affordability, and, as appropriate, amend the ordinance by 2025. Review and
discuss a potential in-lieu fee with the Planning Commission by 2026.

The City's current ordinance was evaluated in 2011 and the determination was made not to adjust the annual cap at that time.

As part of the update to the Housing Element, the City has committed to conduct a study session with the Planning Commission by 2025 to evaluate the effectiveness of the City’s condominium conversion ordinance. The City will also bring forward the topic of affordable housing in-lieu and linkage fees for both residential and commercial developments to the Planning Commission by 2026, and will continue to evaluate potential partnerships with developers or non-profit organizations to construct affordable housing in the City.

9.6 Rent Stabilization
Ordinance
In 2018, the City created a new Rent Stabilization Division within the Community Development Department, for the purpose of administering the Rent Stabilization Ordinance, staffing the Rent Stabilization Commission, and providing other housing services to the community. The major services provided by the Rent Stabilization Division include:

1. Establishing the maximum allowable rent increase

2. Processing rent appeals

3. Assisting landlords with mandatory annual registration

4. Offering referrals for no-cost tenant-landlord legal services (through Bet Tzedek) and mediation services (through the Loyola Center for Conflict Resolution)

5. Conducting multiple workshops and trainings annually to explain landlord and tenant rights and responsibilities under the Rent Stabilization Ordinance

6. Providing dedicated code enforcement staff to investigate habitability complaints Additional housing services conducted by the City include:

1. Operating an aging-in-place group to determine the needs of vulnerable populations and senior citizens and coordinate service delivery

2. Act as an intermediary between tenants and landlords to achieve better housing outcomes and prevent evictions when possible

3. Educating landlords and clients on available funding, such as through the CA COVID-19 rent relief program (i.e. Housing is Key).

Continue the City’s Rent Stabilization ordinance to investigate tenant complaints regarding unlawful rent increases, service reductions, evictions and relocations.

The Rent Stabilization Office administers the Rent Stabilization Program which affects approximately 7,700 apartment units in the City. The ordinance limits annual rent increases to no more than three percent or the calculated Consumer Price Index (CPI) percentage for the year, whichever is higher, and provides tenant protections through required noticing of rent increases and evictions. The program also requires that landlords register their properties with the Rent Stabilization office on an annual basis to monitor information about the existing multi-family units in the City and ensure compliance with the Rent Stabilization ordinance. Rent Stabilization staff respond to approximately 5,000 to 5,600 inquiries from residents or landlords annually, with approximately 400-600 complaints opened each year. Most complaints are resolved within 45 days, with the remainder being referred to “stepped up enforcement action”, including but not limited to citations and further legal action. During the next planning period, the City will:
• Create a program for systematic or annual inspections of housing conducted by the Rent Stabilization Office by 2024, and will discuss this with the City Council by the end of 2023; • Ensure compliance with residential unit replacement state law (SB 330 and Density Bonus law, if applicable) whenever redevelopment of existing residential properties occurs in the multi-family residential areas or mixed-use overlay zone
Evaluate ordinance revisions to address affordability, and, as appropriate, amend the ordinance by 2025 Review and
discuss a potential in-lieu fee with the Planning Commission by 2026.

In an effort to assist tenants and landlords financially impacted by COVID-19, and to avoid housing displacement and homelessness, the City instituted a Rent Subsidy Program. They City allocated $1 million for rent subsidy to eligible tenants financially impacted by COVID-19. The City assisted approximately 100 households with rental assistance. The City is currently examing ways in which funding may be secured for a future rent subsidy program.

The City completed its sixth Annual Rent Registration cycle for all multi-family properties subject to the RSO. The Rent Stabilization Division administers the registration of approximately 7,800 units of multi-family properties in order to: promote the stability of renter populations, maintain quality of the City’s multi-family housing stock, and protect occupants from unreasonable rent increases while recognizing a housing provider’s right to receive a fair return form the rental property.

The Rent Registry system was established to:
• Collect data regarding the rental history including amounts paid for rent • Allow owners to register and provide amendments online • Allow tenants to dispute rental amounts online
• Improve the reporting requirements and collection of rental data for the City’s approximate 7,800 RSO rental units The Rent Registration processes strengthens the mission of the RSO by promoting the stability of renter populations and maintaining the quality of the City’s housing stock.

The Rent Stabilization Division also undertook the following activities in 2022:
• Communicated and informed landlords/tenants of the return to ordinary calculations for allowable rent increases based on the change in Consumer Price Index (CPI) • investigated 486 RSO cases;
• responded to 3,4094 inquiries for RSO information;
• Hosted a community outreach meeting for landlords and tenants; • And collaborated with 19 other Rent Stabilization Programs in California to share information and discuss issues related to affordable housing.

As part of the updates to the Housing Element, the City has committed to creating a program for systematic or annual inspections of housing, and will review this task with the City Council as soon as practiacable. In addition, the City continues to comply with the provisions of SB 330 and Density Bonus law related to residential unit replacements at the time of redevelopment of existing residential properties.

9.7 Monitor Affordable
Housing and Residential
Displacement
The City of Beverly Hills currently has a deed-restricted affordable housing project providing 150 units of affordable rental housing to very-low-income seniors. This project was originally financed under the HUD Section 202 program with project-based Section 8 certificates providing ongoing affordability. This property has a recorded covenant from 1986 (Document No. 86-704717) that states “the residential portion of the property shall be used for housing for senior citizens and handicapped persons”. In addition, this covenant states that if such uses are discontinued, the property shall not be used to any purpose except one approved by the City, and that if the rental rates are no longer subject to the control of a Federal, State, or other public agency, that the rental rates shall be set by the City’s Planning Commission. This covenant runs with the property and is binding on future owners and successors, and therefore, this project is not considered to be at risk of conversion during the planning period, even though the affordability covenant will expire in 2028. Furthermore, the City will continue to coordinate with the service provider to monitor Section 8 renewals, advise tenants in advance of any potential conversion dates, and provide opportunities to continue affordability covenants. The City is committed to keeping this housing resource as affordable housing for seniors and intends to maintain the project as an affordable housing project regardless of the life of the covenant.

The City also has two existing very low-income affordable units at 9265 Burton Way, two moderate-income affordable units at 8600 Wilshire Boulevard, and three low income units at 321-327 South Elm Drive. In addition, a multifamily housing project located at 250 N. Crescent Drive is currently under construction, which will contain one very-low-income affordable unit, and there are a total of 21 deed restricted affordable housing units in the pipeline (either in proposed or approved projects), and 8 units contained in conceptual or preliminary phases. The City has established the Affordable Housing Guidelines for the monitoring and management of additional deed- restricted units that are developed. In addition, the City annually monitors the deed-restricted housing units located in private developments. • Number of Units: 154
• Number of Affordable Units: 150 Extremely Low and Very Low Income, Senior/ Disabled, 2 Very Low Income, and 2 Moderate Income • Year Built: 1988 (Menorah Housing Foundation), 2018 (Burton Way), 2020 (8600 Wilshire Boulevard), 2018 (S. Elm Drive) • Affordability Covenant: 40 years (Menorah Housing Foundation), 30 years (Burton Way), in perpetuity (8600 Wilshire Boulevard), 30 years (S. Elm Drive) In addition, the City is committed to monitoring and discouraging the displacement of residential units as a result of new multi-family residential or mixed-use developments. • The City actively enforces the no net loss and replacement requirement provisions of SB 330 and state Density Bonus law, and reviews all projects for compliance with these regulations. • The City will also create an internal working group with staff from the Planning Division, Community Services Department, Policy and Management Department, and Rent Stabilization Division to discuss various Housing Element implementation programs related to their scope of work, and discuss any ongoing efforts the City is undertaking to provide and preserve affordable housing. This group will meet on a quarterly basis, starting in 2023.

Ongoing

Ongoing
Start in 2023, meet quarterly
The City continues to implement the current program. The City has one very-low income housing building for seniors, which has an affordability covenant and contains 150 units available to very-low income seniors. Menorah Housing Foundation owns the airspace containing the units, and manages and administered the units, subject to certain City repurchase rights. In addition, the City has committed to ensuring that the Menorah Housing Project site remains affordable senior housing. The project is subject a covenant that require the units to be affordable if, in the future, the rental rates were no longer be subject to the control of a Federal, State, or other public agency.

There was one deed-restricted affordable low-income unit permitted in 2023. Since the adoption of the current Housing Element on February 21, 2023, the City has permitted a total of 55 units that qualify as above-moderate income housing and one unit that qualifies as low-income deed restricted affordable housing. The 54 units comprise of 22 single-family homes, 27 accessory dwelling units, and one multi-family residential building with six units. Since the City is built out, it is assumed that all new single-family homes are replacing a demolished unit and are therefore not counted toward RHNA.

In 2018, the City facilitated the rental of two very-low income units located in a Density Bonus project to qualified renters and will continue to monitor these units for compliance. The City continues to monitor these units and facilitate the rental of others. In 2020, the City provided training to the owners of a building with three low-income units which were anticipated to become available in 2021. In 2022, the City also filled two moderate-income rate units located in a new mixed-use building, and in early 2023, started the process of filling the three low-income rate units in a multi-family building.

The City is committed to complying with the no net loss and replacement requirements of SB 330 and Density Bonus law, and reviews all projects for compliance with these regulations. In 2023, the City established a Replacement Unit Determination process to ensure compliance with SB 330/SB 8 replacement requirements, which includes outreach to existing tenants on the rights available to them.

As part of the update to the Housing Element, the City is also creating an internal working group with staff from the Planning Division, Community Services Department, Policy and Management Department, and Rent Stabilization Division to discuss various Housing Element implementation programs related to their scope of work. This group will meet quarterly, starting in 2024.

10.1 Density Bonnus
Under State Density Bonus Law, applicants of residential projects of five or more units may apply for a density bonus and additional incentive(s) if the project provides affordable housing units. In addition to the density bonus, eligible projects may receive development incentives, depending on the proportion of affordable units and level of income targeting.

In recent years the State Legislature has amended Density Bonus law. In order to ensure that City regulations are consistent with State requirements, the City will process an amendment to the Municipal Code in 2021.

In 2023, process an amendment to the density bonus
regulations in conformance with State law. Consider
additional incentives beyond minimum density bonus
requirements. Promote the use of density bonus incentives through the City’s website and through an updated Affordable Housing Brochure, which will be published by 2023.

The City continues to process density bonus applications pursuant to State law. In 2023, the City approved four multi-family and/or mixed-use projects, four of which utilized state density bonus, totaling 134 units, 14 of which are for lower income households:
•332 S. Doheny Drive – 5-story, 9-unit multi-family residential •227 Tower Drive – 5-story, 10-unit multi-family residential •208 N. Crescent Drive – 4-story, 10-unit multi-family residential •55 La Cienega Boulevard – 6-story, 105-unit multi-family residential/mixed-use

10.2 Inlcusionary Housing
In 2019, the City established an interim inclusionary housing program requiring a minimum percentage of units in a development to be price-restricted as affordable to lower- and moderate-income households. The ordinance also allows the payment of in lieu fees or provision of off-site affordable units for projects of a certain size. The City will continue to implement this program and contribute inlieu fees generated from the program to the City’s Housing Trust Fund.

Any Incentives offered under the Inclusionary Housing program will be linked with incentives offered under the City’s Density Bonus program (Imp 10.1a). The City will monitor the use of the inclusionary housing program, and report annually to the Planning Commission and City Council on the number of affordable units constructed in the City.

Throughout the planning period. Annual reporting to the Planning Commission and City Council on success of the
inclusionary housing program.

The City adopted an ordinance to establish permanent regulations for an inclusionary housing program, after considering several studies prepared to analyze the financial feasibility of such a program. This program requires that any new housing development project with more than 5 housing units provide a certain number of affordable units. For projects with 5-9 housing units, 1 affordable unit must be provided, or an in-lieu fee may also be paid. For projects with 10 or more housing units, 10% of the overall units must be deedrestricted affordable units, though there are additional methods for compliance with this requirement.

10.3 Housing Trust Fund
The City has limited access to state and federal housing resources, and therefore faces practical and financial constraints in its ability to facilitate the construction of affordable housing. To create a more viable funding source, in 2017 the City established a Housing Trust Fund that is used to support construction of affordable housing. Trust Fund resources include development agreements and in-lieu fees from the Inclusionary Housing Program. An official Affordable Housing Program may be established to manage the Trust Fund and establish parameters for allocation of funds towards projects, including consideration of priority assistance to projects which include a portion of units affordable to extremely-low-income households.

The City will also start an affordable housing working group that will meet on a quarterly basis to discuss potential affordable housing projects and initiatives, starting in 2023. In addition, the City will enter into an agreement with an affordable housing developer in 2023 to develop an affordable housing project on city owned land.

Enter into an agreement with affordable housing developer in 2023 to develop an affordable housing project on City owned land.

Through development agreements, the City has negotiated approximately $3 million to be used to establish a housing trust fund. The trust fund has been established and currently holds approximately $1.5 million. In 2022, $500,000 was appropriated for affordable housing predevelopment purposes.

In addition, the City may use the Trust Fund to support a portion of the City’s contribution/gap funding for other planned affordable projects.

In September 2023, City Council approved an exclusive negotiation agreement with non-profit affordable housing developer West Hollywood Community Housing Corporation. The agreement is to begin the negotiation process to potentially develop a future 100% affordable senior housing project on a City-owner site at 9268-9298 W. 3rd Street.

Bi-annually
2024 and 2025
On-going
The City is currently processing amendments to the Municipal Code to create ADU standards for single-family lots that exceed the minimum standards required under state law to incentivize ADU construction. At the January 25, 2024, meeting, the Planning Commission considered the draft ADU ordinance and recommended adoption to the City Council. The draft ADU ordinance is now being scheduled for an upcoming City Council meeting. Once the draft ADU ordinance is adopted, the City will host a public workshop for the public to present the new ADU regulations and offer assistance in navigating the ADU development standards. Following ordinance adoption, the City will also promptly publish updated ADU development resources and guidelines--including related content on the City’s ADU website and informational brochure--to reflect current development standards.

ADU interest and production in Beverly Hills continues to increase. The City issued building permits for 19 ADUs in 2021, 25 in 2022, and 31 in 2023. Using conservative estimates, the City anticipates the construction of 150 ADUs throughout the 2021-2029 Housing Element planning period. These numbers for permitted ADUs in the City was last reported to the Planning Commission in the staff report for the draft ADU ordinance of the January 25, 2024 meeting, and will also be reported to the City Council in their upcoming staff report on the item. The City will diligently monitor ADU production each year by affordability level. If an average of 20 new ADUs per year are not permitted by the end of 2025, including the affordability targets, the City will take appropriate actions to adapt regulations depending on the magnitude of the gap in ADU production.

In 2020, the City was approved for funding under the Local Early Action Planning (LEAP) Grant by the California Department of Housing and Community Development to update ADU regulations and provide public tools and resources for ADU production. Funding from the Leap Grant supported the development of the draft ADU ordinance and will be used to implement the City’s forthcoming pre-approved plan program for ADUs as well as future changes to regulations pertaining to multifamily ADUs.

Looking ahead, the City is committed to meeting ADU production goals, adopting updated ADU regulations for multi-family residential zones that exceed state requirements by 2025, providing pre-checked ADU plans for public use by 2025, updating the ADU webpage (beverlyhills.org/adu) proactively with information for the public, and adopting additional ADU construction incentives if the City does not consistently approve an average of 20 new ADUs per year by 2025.

10.5 Susainability and Green
Building
“Green buildings” are structures that are designed, renovated, reused or operated in a manner that enhances resource efficiency and sustainability. These structures reduce water consumption, improve energy efficiency, and reduce a building’s overall environmental impact. The City of Beverly Hills has adopted the current version of the California Green Building Standards Code (CALGreen).

Beverly Hills has also adopted a Sustainable City Plan in conjunction with recent amendments to its General Plan. The overall goal of the Sustainable City Plan is to reduce the City’s carbon footprint by providing a model framework for sustainable practices for the environment, the economy and social equity.

Ongoing The City continues to implement the current program in consistency with State law.

10.6 Partnerships with
Affordable Housing
Developers
In today’s housing market, creative approaches are required to finance and build affordable and special needs housing. Beverly Hills successfully partnered with the non-profit Menorah Housing Foundation to achieve development of 150 units of affordable senior housing, and has contracted with Alternative Living for the Aging for implementation of the senior shared housing program in the past. Both of these organizations own and manage numerous affordable housing developments for seniors in greater Los Angeles and can serve as potential resources for future senior housing in Beverly Hills. Several other local non-profits have an excellent track record in securing State and federal funds to build quality, affordable housing. The City will actively participate in conferences, symposiums, and affordable housing related events such as: the Southern California Association of Nonprofit Housing annual conference.

The City will work to select an affordable housing developer to develop an affordable housing project, and will support in this effort through leveraging local Housing Trust Funds, assisting in the application for State and federal financial resources, facilitating project entitlement, and providing a package of incentives such as fee deferrals and relaxed development standards. In addition, the City will facilitate the development of housing for extremely-lowincome households and individuals and households with special needs through priority processing, fee waivers or deferrals, modified development standards, concessions and incentives for housing developments that include units affordable to lower- and moderate-income households, administrative support for grant funding applications, and annual outreach and coordination with affordable housing developers. As stated in Imp. 9.7., the City will also start an affordable housing working group that will meet on a quarterly basis to discuss potential affordable housing projects and initiatives, starting in 2023. In addition, the City will enter into an agreement with affordable housing developer in 2023 to develop an affordable housing project on City-owned land.

created by 2022
Agricultural Employee code amendment in 2021-22;
The City provides Fair Housing information on the City's website (http://www.beverlyhills.org/departments/communityservices/humanservicesdivision/housingrights/ ).

The Housing Rights Center also provides FREE fair housing services to Beverly Hills residents and community members: housing discrimination complaint investigation; landlord/tenant counseling; predatory lending referrals; outreach and education; and legal and advocacy services. Additional information is available by contacting (800) 477-5977, or go to www.hrc-la.org.

The Rent Stabilization Ordinances (RSO) seeks to: promote the stability of renter populations; maintain the quality of Beverly Hills multi-family housing stock; and protect occupants from unreasonable rent increases while recognizing a landlord’s right to receive a fair rate of return. The City requires annual registration of all rental units through the Rent Registration system. There are currently 7,800 units and 1,097 properties, subject to the RSO. The RSO, among other things, restricts annual rent increases on all tenant occupied RSO units in an effort to stabilize rents and restrict evictions to just cause and no-fault reasons.

The City continues to conduct outreach to tenants and landlords regarding updates to the Rent Stabilization Ordinance and obligations and responsibilities of both parties. This outreach seeks to inform both tenants and landlords of tenant protections generally and tenant protections under the RSO in an effort to ensure that tenants remain housed and that tenants in RSO units maintain housing affordability in their rent stabilized unit.

The Rent Stabilization Division collaborates with the City’s Community Services Department and community partners to provide assistance with hoarding issues. The City collaborates with third party contractors including Jewish Family Services and Bet Tzedek to remedy hoarding issues in an effort to ensure that tenants maintain their occupancy.

The Rent Stabilization Division collaborates with other City departments including the Fire Department and the Nurse Practitioner program, Code Enforcement, Community Services Department and community partners Jewish Family Services and Bet Tzedek to identify needs of seniors and disabled persons requiring assistance in order to allow them to age-in-place. These collaborators meet monthly to identify and discuss possible assistance measures.

As a part of the updates to the Housing Element, the City has added a number of new policies to address: housing mobility strategies, new housing choices and affordability in areas of opportunity, place-based strategies to encourage community conservation and revitalization, and protecting existing residents from displacement.

The City continues to implement and comply with the regulations related to replacement units for properties that are redeveloped (per SB 330 and Density Bonus state law), and continues to implement the Rent Stabilization Ordinance.

11.2 Senior Housing
Development
The need for senior housing in the City is significant and growing. Approximately 22 percent of Beverly Hills residents are senior citizens compared to only 13 percent in the entire SCAG region, and 58 percent of the City’s senior renter households are lower income (<80% AMI). The City is actively pursuing development of an affordable housing project targeted towards Beverly Hills’ extremely-low- and lower-income residents. As indicated in Program 10.6 (Partnerships with Affordable Housing Developers), the City will provide the following incentives to facilitate development:
• Flexible development standards (reduced parking requirements, modified setbacks, etc.) • Density bonuses
• City support in affordable housing funding applications (priority to those that support deeper targeting to ELI households) • Deferral/reduction in development fees
• Direct financial assistance through Housing Trust Fund • Project entitlement assistance
Continue to build partnerships with affordable housing
developers throughout the planning period. Develop a project concept and release an RFQ to develop a senior housing
project in the City affordable to the City’s lower- and extremely-low-income residents during the planning period.

In 2022, the City released an RFQ/P to identify qualified development teams that could develop a senior citizen affordable housing project on City-owned property. This RFQ/P process includes an assessment of feasible locations for future affordable housing developments. The City has reviewed more than 30 proposals from 13 developers across 7 different sites. In September 2023, the City selected a developer and entered into an exclusive negotiation period for the development of a 100% affordable senior project on an approximately 1.5 acre site. The City is evaluating several other options for affordable projects that may also include age-restricted units for seniors.

11.3 Senior Case
Management Program
The City contracts with Jewish Family Service to provide a comprehensive case management program to assist frail elderly residents to remain independent and in their homes. The following continuum of supportive services are provided to seniors who are frail, economically needy, and/or socially isolated:
• Comprehensive assessment – In-home psycho-social assessment of functional abilities, health status, mental and cognitive abilities, support network, financial health, safety risks, eligibility for government benefits and other programs. The comprehensive assessment includes:
o Development of an individual care plan – Identifies senior’s needs and associated services that will allow continued independence. o Service coordination – Coordination with appropriate services, including in-home care-workers, ERS, home delivered meals, assistance to obtain governmental benefits, arranging for other community-based services, transportation assistance, and coordination of services with medical providers, family, and social supports. o Emergency Response Systems (ERS) – ERS are medical devices placed in a senior’s home and connected to a central emergency location. o Monitoring/ home visits: Social workers make regularly scheduled home visits to assure quality of services, and that changing needs are met. Additional Services: Information, referral and crisis intervention, consultation and advocacy, and assistance to families to further support the senior’s independent living.

Jewish Family Service provides broad case management services through the Beverly Hills Senior Center, including information, referral and crisis intervention, serving approximately 250 seniors thus far.

Ongoing
The City continues to implement the Senior Care Management Program and provides additional assistance to seniors through the collaboration between the City’s Community Services Department and the Beverly Hills Active Adult Club to provide exercise classes and activities at La Cienega and Roxbury Parks, and Jewish Family Services which provides a broad range of support services to seniors living independently.

In FY 2022-2023, the City contributed $220,000 to a housing and senior legal services program through Bet Tzedek to provide pro bono senior legal services including public benefits, family caregiver services (conservatorships, guardianships, long-term planning and wills, etc.), elder abuse services, foreclosure prevention, and Holocaust survivor services. This program also provides housing legal services to seniors and other low-income individuals in the City providing tenant-landlord legal services (tenancy terminations, lease violations, rent increases etc.), rights and responsibilities under the City’s Rent Stabilization Ordinance, and housing conditions and habitability.

11.4 Senior Home Sharing
Program
Alternative Living for the Aging (ALA) provides a free shared housing program which matches older people with others (younger and older) interested in sharing their homes. Housing counselors at ALA interview each potential housemate and obtain references, leaving the decision to the potential housemates whether to make a match. Sharing a home promotes independent living, provides additional income for the provider, an affordable rent for the seeker, and the potential for deeper relationships for both. The average age of community members in Beverly Hills is growing older, and shared housing promotes the efficient use of the housing stock, and can help address the housing needs of seniors in our community. The City has provided funds to ALA in the past to help fund their housemate matching service, and anticipates the program will funded again in future years when there are fewer budget constraints. Beverly Hills residents continue to have access to ALA’s home sharing program.

Evaluate Community Assistance Funds and determine grant amount annually.

The City contributes to a housing/roommate matching program through Affordable Living for the Aging (ALA) to promote independent living for older adults and aging in place. ALA matches seniors in need of housing with local seniors who have an extra room in their DRAFT
residence looking to earn additional income. In FY 2021-2022, ALA enrolled twelve Beverly Hills residents into the program.

11.5 Housing Opportunities
for Persons with Disabilities
The City understands the significant and wide-ranging housing needs faced by persons with disabilities and their families. The Westside Regional Center (WRC) reports that nearly 60 percent of their adult clients with developmental disabilities live with their parents, and as these parents age and become frailer, their adult disabled children will require alternative housing options. There are several housing types appropriate for persons living with a developmental disability, including: licensed community care facilities and group homes; supervised apartment settings with support services; and for persons able to live more independently, rent subsidized, affordable housing.

For persons with physical disabilities, housing accessibility is essential, ideally located in close proximity to services and transit. The City will work with the WRC to implement an outreach program informing Beverly Hills’ families of housing and services available for persons with developmental disabilities, including making information available on the City’s website.

Beverly Hills supports the provision of housing for those with disabilities, including developmental disabilities, through several means, including:
• By-right zoning for licensed residential care facilities (6 or fewer residents) in all residential zones, and provisions for larger care facilities (7 or more residents) in residential zones subject to a use permit • Adoption of Ordinance 12-O-2633 in November 2012 to specifically define transitional and supportive housing as a residential use of property, and to permit in all residential zone districts subject only to those restrictions and processing requirements that apply to other residential dwellings of the same type in the same zone. • Addition of Article 36.7 to the Municipal Code, establishing a procedure for an individual with a disability to request a reasonable accommodation from zoning and building standards.

Further, The City is committed to continually assessing existing regulations in order to proactively remove housing constraints for persons with disabilities. The City commits to:
• Periodically review the definition of “family” in the zoning code and consider adopting an ordinance that updates the zoning code standards for group homes as may be necessary to maintain compliance with state law. The first review shall be completed by 2024.
• Continue to implement the reasonable accommodation process and proactively inform applicants about the reasonable accommodation process when appropriate. • Re-establishment of the Home Repair and Improvement (Handyworker) grants for lower-income households that may be used for accessibility improvements by 2025.

Continue coordination with the Westside Regional Center to publicize information on available regional resources for housing and services. Pursue State and Federal funds
available for supportive housing and services in future affordable housing projects. Process a Municipal Code
amendment in 2024 to update definitions of transitional and supportive housing and family consistent with Government Code Sec. 65582 and allow supportive housing by-right in zones where multifamily and mixed -uses are permitted,
including nonresidential zones permitting multifamily uses pursuant to Government Code Sec. 65651.
2024
By 2025
As part of the update to the Housing Element, the City has committed to assess existing regulations related to the definitions of “family” and to group homes, in order to ensure that the City maintains compliance with State law. The first review of such regulations shall be completed by 2024.

The City is also committed to re-establishing the Handyworker program by 2025, and exploring alternative options to provide the services if the program is not re-established by 2026.

11.6 Funding for Homeless
Services
Beverly Hills launched the CLASP (Changing Lives and Sharing Places) Homeless Outreach and Engagement Program in 2008. The program provides street outreach workers (through Step Up On Second) to assess the needs of homeless individuals in the City, provide case management, and to refer them to the appropriate services and shelter. Shelter is offered through People Assisting the Homeless (PATH), funded by the City to provide approximately 1,500 shelter bed nights per year. The City is also partnering with Step Up on Second to provide an apartment unit, combined with case management support.

Through its Community Assistance Grant Program, the City funds a variety of service organizations that serve the homeless and persons at risk of homelessness. These organizations/programs include the All Saints Homeless Assistance Program, the Westside Food Bank, the Los Angeles Free Clinic, and the Maple Mental Health Counseling Center.

Service Providers: Step Up on Second; PATH; various other service agencies Annual funding allocations
Through the City’s Community Assistance Grant Funding (CAGF) process, the following investments were made in funding for services for the unhoused. In FY 2022-23, the City contributed $261,449, to Step Up on Second for the CLASP (Changing Lives And Sharing Places) homeless outreach program, assisting formerly homeless individuals to remain permanently housed, and providing access to mental health services. CLASP outreaches and engages homeless individuals in the City daily with the intention of providing those persons with assistance and support including linking them to shelter. The team is available seven days per week, and works out of the City’s Human Services Division’s office. The team works closely with several other City Departments and Divisions including Recreation and Parks, the Library, the Police Department, as well as other City contractors and partners.

In FY 2022-23, the City contributed $100,000 for shelter beds at PATH (People Assisting The Homeless). In addition, funds provided to PATH offers access to tenant-based Section 8 vouchers to provide affordable and permanent supportive housing in Los Angeles County.

In FY 2022-23, the City contributed $50,000 to Safe Parking LA which provides safe parking lots for individuals and families experiencing vehicular homelessness. Safe Parking LA provides security, case management, and other essential services to stabilize and connect people to resources.

In FY 2022-23, the City contributed $30,000 to All Saints’ Episcopal Church’s Homeless Assistance Program which helps provide monetary support for the Home Again Program (providing transportation home for individuals experiencing homelessness), TAP cards and food gift cards for the CLASP Outreach team to provide for their clients, resources for newly housed formerly homeless individuals (furniture, security deposit, etc.).

Additionally, in late 2022, the City Council authorized additional program funding for services for the unhoused. One tool is a software system that can track people experiencing homelessness and provide case management services, the cost of the platform is $83,000 and will be operational by March 2023. The City also hired a consultant to develop a needs assessment and service design plan for $30,000, the plan is expected to be presented to City Council in late Spring 2023. An additional $122,000 has been added to the Step Up on Second agreement to provide two additional outreach workers, which expands outreach coverage to 5am-9pm Monday through Friday and 8a-9pm Saturday and Sunday. The final cost associated with the enhanced services is $421,000 for Nastec International for overnight and weekend outreach response services.

11.7 Emergency Shelter and
Low Barrier Navigcation
Center Regulations
The City will establish a program to promote low barrier navigation centers that will reduce barriers to entry for housing and to help move people into permanent housing.

The California legislature adopted AB 101 in 2019, which requires the by-right allowance of low barrier navigation centers that meet specific standards in mixed-use zones and non-residential zones that permit multi-family uses.

In addition, an amendment to the City’s emergency shelter development standards will be processed to incorporate recent changes to State law regarding required off-street parking pursuant to Government Code Sec. 65583(a)(4)(A)(2).

Adopt regulations in compliance with state law and establish a program to implement the regulations in 2021-22 The City adopted this new policy in the 2021-2029 Housing Element.

12.1 Adjust Development
standards
Beverly Hills collects various fees from development to cover the costs of processing permits and providing services and facilities. The City will utilize an economic consultant to prepare a comprehensive Citywide fee study, including an evaluation of the economic benefit of providing waivers or reductions of certain taxes and fees including certain project fees for developments containing very-low, low- and moderate-income housing units, as well as for housing developed under the City’s modified standards for Multiple-family Residences for Elderly and Handicapped Persons (Deed Restricted).

The California legislature passed AB 641 in 2007 which helps to address the cash flow problems inherent in many affordable housing projects during the construction phase. For affordable housing developments in which at least 49 percent of the units are affordable to lower-income households, AB 641 prohibits local governments from requiring the payment of local developer fees prior to receiving a certificate of occupancy.

Amend the Zoning Code to include reduced minimum unit
sizes as an incentive for the density bonus program. Explore revisions to
other development standards, including minimum unit sizes for all multifamily units, as supported by analysis. City will begin studying current
multi-family code regulations by 2022 and finish code
amendments by
2024. The City will amend zoning code standards for mixed use
development in 2024, if targets are not met.

In 2020, the City Council passed an ordinance establishing a mixed use overlay zone along many commercial corridors. This will act as a catalyst to revitalize commercial corridors and will allow the conversion of existing commercial buildings to mixed use in areas that previously did not allow residential. Height allowed for these projects ranges from three to five stories depending on where a parcel is located.

In the 2021-2029 Housing Element, the City committed to the following programs to facilitate the development of additional housing stock, affordable housing:

Drafting zoning amendments to adjust development standards to be more beneficial for affordable housing development Simply modulation requirements for multi-family developments Create an adaptive reuse program for conversion of commercial to residential uses by 2028 Adopt objective design standards for multi-family projects by 2026 Streamline project approvals at the administrative level Review mixed use overlay zoning regulations for effectiveness

12.2 Reduced Fees for
Affordable Housing
Beverly Hills collects various fees from development to cover the costs of processing permits and providing services and facilities. The City will utilize an economic consultant to prepare a comprehensive Citywide fee study, including an evaluation of the economic benefit of providing waivers or reductions of certain taxes and fees including certain project fees for developments containing very-low, low- and moderate-income housing units, as well as for housing developed under the City’s modified standards for Multiple-family Residences for Elderly and Handicapped Persons (Deed Restricted). The California legislature passed AB 641 in 2007 which helps to address the cash flow problems inherent in many affordable housing projects during the construction phase. For affordable housing developments in which at least 49 percent of the units are affordable to lower-income households, AB 641 prohibits local governments from requiring the payment of local developer fees prior to receiving a certificate of occupancy.

Conduct a housing development fee study, and adopt
modified development fees for projects with a certain
percentage of affordable housing by 2026. In the 2021-2029 Housing Element, the City committed to conducting a development fee study for affordable housing projects by 2026.

12.3 Efficient Development
Permit Review
The City is committed to ensuring efficient development plan review and proactively providing information to the public about housing development opportunities in the City. The City’s Community Development Department has been restructured to provide more efficient permitting through:
• Establishment of a dedicated group of Zoning and Building staff focused on processing permits • Hiring an Urban Designer to help streamline design review for development applications In order to further encourage the provision of housing the City commits to:
• Meet with project applicants to review zoning regulations if a housing project is submitted with proposed densities below the permitted density in the zone • Provide fee-free consultations with developers to discuss potential housing projects prior to submittal in order to ensure that developer understands regulations, processes, and options for development Adopt updated processing procedures in the Zoning Code
during the planning period; prepare written procedures for SB 35 streamlined permit review in 2021-22 2023; post
development regulations and fees on the City website
throughout the planning period.

The City hired an Urban Designer (FTE) in 2012 to help streamline review of new housing projects and other developments proposed in the City. Through the planning period, the Urban Designer continues to review and approve administrative permits related to housing projects. Additionally, in an effort to streamline permitting, the Community Development Department was restructured to form a dedicated group of zoning and building code experts tasked with processing development permits.

In 2021, the Community Development Department created a Major Projects Team to efficiently review significant development projects from entitlement application all the way through to issuance of Certificate of Occupancy, all handled by an integrated unit of development review staff. Over the course of 2022-2023, the Major Projects Team became fully staffed with Planners, a Senior Plan Review Engineer/Associate Project Manager, Senior Building Inspector, and Management Analyst, and the team is currently managing five active major projects at various stages of development.  In 2022, the Planning Division hired three additional staff members to help expedite the processing of project applications.

In 2022, the City conducted an analysis of recently approved housing project to determine if they are being constructed at the maximum densities, and found that most are meeting or exceeding maximum allowable densities with the aid of state density bonus law.

Tenent Preference Policy
Local governments are required to inform HCD about any local tenant preference ordinance the local government maintains when the jurisdiction submits their annual progress report on housing approvals and production, per Government Code 7061 (SB 649, 2022, Cortese).

Effective January 1, 2023, local governments adopting a tenant preference are required to create a webpage on their internet website containing authorizing local ordinance and supporting materials, no more than 90 days after the ordinance becomes operational. www.beverlyhills.org/affordablehousing
Under the City's affordable housing website, there is a section which discusses the City's priority list. The affordable housing occupancy priority ranking was determined by the City Council and is summarized by the inforgraphic - Tier 1 through Tier 8. The occupancy priority can be found in Beverly Hills Municipal Code 10-3-1528. 10-3-1528.OCCUPANCY PRIORITY.

Occupancy priority for eligible units shall conform to the following eight (8) tiers.

A. Tier 1 - Senior Tenants Displaced From The Project Site: First priority shall go to income qualified households in which at least one member is a senior (62 years and older) and that have been or will be required to vacate existing dwelling units on the site of development so that an owner or developer may perform any construction, renovation or addition pursuant to a density bonus permit. If the number of qualified applicants in this tier exceeds the number of available units, then the order in which the units are offered to Tier 1 applicants shall be based on the period of time that the longest tenured member of the household resided at the project site, from longest to shortest, and a lottery shall be held within this tier to determine the order in which the units are offered to any Tier 1 applicants having the same period of residency at the project site.

B. Tier 2 - Tenants With Beverly Hills Unified School District Students Displaced From The Project Site: Second priority shall go to income qualified households that include as part of the household a legal guardian of one or more students currently enrolled in and attending the Beverly Hills Unified School District in grade 10 or lower, and that have been or will be required to vacate existing dwelling units on the site of development so that an owner or developer may perform any construction, renovation or addition pursuant to a density bonus permit. If the number of qualified applicants in this tier exceeds the number of available units, the order in which the units are offered to Tier 2 applicants shall be based on the period of time that the longest tenured member of the household resided at the project site, from longest to shortest, and a lottery shall be held within this tier to determine the order in which the units are offered to any Tier 2 applicants having the same period of residency at the project site.

C. Tier 3 -Tenants Displaced From The Project Site: Third priority shall go to income qualified households that have been or will be required to vacate existing dwelling units on the site of development so that an owner or developer may perform any construction, renovation or addition pursuant to a density bonus permit. If the number of qualified applicants in this tier exceeds the number of available units the order in which the units are offered to Tier 3 applicants shall be based on the period of time that longest tenured member of the household resided at the project site, from longest to shortest, and a lottery shall be held within this tier to determine the order in which the units are offered to Tier 3 applicants having the same period of residency at the project site.

D. Tier 4 - Displaced Senior Households: Fourth priority shall go to income qualified households in which at least one member is a senior (62 years and older) and that have or will be displaced or evicted from a multi-family building in the City other than the project site for the purpose of redevelopment if either: (1) the multi-family building was demolished for redevelopment within the two years immediately preceding the date on which applications for the affordable housing units are due; or (2) the multi-family property to be redeveloped has received all entitlements, excluding building permits, and such redevelopment requires all residents to vacate the site, provided that such entitlements, or subsequent entitlements remain valid and have not expired on the date the applications for the affordable housing units are due.
