INTRODUCTION
This Housing Successor Agency Annual Report (“Annual Report”) presents information on Fiscal Year (“FY”) 2024-25 expenditures and activities as required by Health and Safety Code (“HSC”) Section 34176.1(f), including but not limited to a housing successor’s compliance with certain expenditure activities over the year as well as a five -year planning period . This Annual Report is required of any housing successor to a former redevelopment agency.
Housing Authority as Housing Successor
The Chula Vista Housing Authority (“Housing Authority”) is the Housing Successor Agency (“Housing Successor”) to the former Chula Vista Redevelopment Agency (“Agency”), which was dissolved along with all redevelopment agencies statewide by the State legislature in 2012. At the time of dissolution, a housing successor was to be selected to transfer and be responsible for the remaining assets and liabilities of a former redevelopment agency.
The City of Chula Vista (“City”) City Council elected to designate the Housing Authority as the Housing Successor to the former Agency. The Housing Authority performs many other duties beyond those of a housing successor while acting in its broader capacity as a housing authority. The Housing Authority reports on all its activities in a separate (broader and more extensive) annual repor t required by HSC Section 34328, to be submitted to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (“HCD”) by October 1st if audited financials are available.
Scope of This Housing Successor Annual Report
This Annual Report is limited to the Housing Authority’s activities as it relates to its role as a housing successor. This may include, but is not limited to, financial activit ies, property disposition, loan administration, monitoring of covenants, and affordable housing development. This Annual Report describes compliance with various annual, five -year, and ten-year housing expenditure and production requirements. The current five-year compliance period began on July 1, 20 24 and end s June 30, 2029; FY 2024-25 is the first year of the current five-year compliance period.
The Housing Successor Annual Report is submitted to HCD annually. The Housing Successor’s audited financial statements will be posted on the City ’s website when available and incorporated herein by reference.

2 Assets Transferred to the Housing Successor
Upon the statewide dissolution of redevelopment in 2012, all rights, powers, committed assets, liabilities, duties, and obligations associated with the affordable housing activities of the Agency were transferred to the Housing Authority. As one of its first duties as a housing successor, the Housing Authority prepared and submitted to the California Department of Finance (“DOF”) an inventory of housing assets to be transferred from the former Agency. The inventory was enumerated on a Housing Asset Transfer Form (“HAT”) which included:
1. Real properties;
2. Loan/Grant receivables;
3. Rent/Operation Income; and
4. Deferrals.
All items on the HAT were reviewed and ultimately approved by the DOF on September 5, 2012. A copy of the HAT is provided in Appendix 1. Once approved by DOF and as directed by law, the Housing Authority, acting as the Housing Successor, transferred these assets to the Low and Moderate Income Housing Asset Fund (“Housing Asset Fund”). Approval of the HAT set in motion a series of obligations by the Housing Authority as a housing successor, as described in the following section.
BACKGROUND
This Section summarizes the legal requirements for use of housing successor assets that are addressed in this Annual Report.
Legal Requirements Pertaining to Housing Successors
In general, h ousing successors must comply with three major requirements pursuant to HSC Section 34176.1:
1. Expenditures and housing production are subject to income and age targets.
2. Housing successors may not accumulate an “excess surplus,” or a high unencumbered Housing Asset Fund balance, based on certain thresholds.
Chula Vista Housing Successor Annual Report 2024-25
3 3. Properties must be developed with affordable housing within five to ten years of the DOF’s approval of the HAT.
Appendix 2 provides a detailed summary of the reporting requirements that are addressed in this Annual Report.
Permitted Uses of Housing Asset Funds
Under HSC Section 34176.1, Housing Asset Funds may be spent on:
• Administrative costs for the operation of the housing successor agency. The law allows a housing successor to spend the greater than:
o $200,000 per year adjusted for inflation, or
o 5% of the statutory value of real property owned by the Housing Successor and the value of loans and grants receivable from the HAT (“Portfolio”).
HCD has annually published an adjusted limit amount for administrative costs, reflecting the change in the Consumer Price Index from the prior year. Although HCD has not yet published the update for FY 2024 -25, applying the same methodology and index HCD h as previously used would yield a limit adjusted for inflation for FY 2024-25 is $270,700. The Housing Successor’s FY 2024-25 Portfolio balance is $26,432,794 of which 5 percent is $1,321,640 Chula Vista’s FY 2024- 25 annual administrative cost limit is the higher of these amounts. • Homeless prevention and rapid re housing services up to $ 500,000 per year if the former redevelopment agency did not have any outstanding inclusionary housing or replacement housing production requirements as of 2012. The City is eligible for this expense because it did not have any outstanding inclusionary or replacement housing requirements upon dissolution. • Affordable housing development assists households with up to 80 percent of the Area Median Income (“AMI”), subject to specific income and age targets over a five-year period.
Five-Year Income Proportionality on Development Expenditures : Any Housing Asset Funds may be spent on the development of affordable housing projects affordable to low, very low, and extremely low-income households. “Development” is defined as “new construction, acquisition, and rehabilitation, substantial rehabilitation as defined in HSC Section 33413, the
Chula Vista Housing Successor Annual Report 2024-25
4 acquisition of long -term affordability covenants on multifamily units as described in HSC Section 33413, or the preservation of an assisted housing development that is eligible for prepayment or termination or for which within the expiration of rental restrictions is scheduled to occur within five years.”
Over each five-year compliance period, the current one beginning July 1, 20 24, at least 30 percent of such development expenditures mus t assist extremely low-income households (30% of AMI), while no more than 20 percent may assist low-income households (between 60% to 80% of AMI). The balance of the funds may be used on very low-income households (defined as households earning between 30% and 60% of AMI).
The Housing Authority was compliant during the last five-year compliance period from July 1, 2019, to June 30, 2024. The current five-year compliance period is July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2029.
Note that housing successors must report expenditures by category each year, but compliance with income proportionality limits is measured every five years. For example, a housing successor could spend all its funds in a single year on households earning between 60% to 80% of AMI, if it was 20 percent or less of the total expenditures during the five-year compliance period.
Should a housing successor not spend at least 30 percent of its development expenditures on extremely low-income households, or exceed the amount spent on low-income households, future expenditures are subject to greater restriction until these proportionality targets are met. Specifically, if a housing successor is unable to spend at least 30 percent of its development expenditures on extremely low units, it is required to increase this spending to 50 percent until compliant with the 30 percent threshold; a housing successor that spends more than 20 percent of its development expenditures on low-income units cannot spend any further funds on low-income developments until it is at or below the 20 percent threshold. As such, tracking these expenditures and their progress over the corresponding five-year period is an important function of this Annual Report.
Ten-Year Age Proportionality on Units Assisted : If more than 50 percent of the total aggregate number of rental units produced by the city, housing authority, or former
Chula Vista Housing Successor Annual Report 2024-25
5 redevelopment a gency during the past 10 years are restricted to seniors, the housing successor may not spend more Housing Asset Funds on senior rental housing.
It is important to stress that Housing Successor expenditure and production requirements are measured on different timeframes:
• One-Year Limits: Administrative Allowance and Homeless Prevention Allowance. Compliance is evaluated annually and resets every year.
• Five-Year Limit: Expenditures by Income Level. Compliance should be evaluated over a fixed five-year period set by law, the current period being July 1, 2024, to June 30, 2029. • Ten-Year Limit: Number of Senior Deed -Restricted Units Assisted. Compliance is evaluated based on a rolling ten -year period that is different every year, the current period being July 1, 2015, to June 30, 2025.
Appendix 3 describes Housing Asset Fund expenditure requirements in more detail, including the types of costs eligible in each category.
Limits on the Accumulation of Housing Funds (Excess Surplus) State law limits how much cash a housing successor may retain and, if it fails to commit and spend these dollars in a reasonable timeframe, ultimately penalizes the housing successor by requiring unspent funds to be transferred to HCD for use on State housing programs.
HSC Section 34176.1(d) establishes a limit , known as an “excess surplus” on the amount of unencumbered Housing Asset Funds based on the greater of the following:
• $1,000,000, or
• The total amount of deposits made into the Housing Asset Fund over the preceding four years.
Only amounts in excess of this threshold are considered an excess surplus. Once an excess surplus is determined, a housing successor must account for these funds separately and encumber said monies within three years. If after the third year, the excess surplus has not been fully encumbered, the remaining
Chula Vista Housing Successor Annual Report 2024-25
6 balance of the excess surplus is to be transferred to HCD within 90 days. HCD is permitted to use these transferred excess surplus funds anywhere in the State under its Multifamily Housing Program or the Joe Serna, Jr. Farmworker Housing Grant Program.
As part of the Annual Report, a housing successor must disclose any excess surplus and describe the housing successor’s plan for eliminating this excess surplus.

9 REAL PROPERTIES AND DISPOSITION STATUS
Under the approved HAT, t he former Agency transferred three parcels to the Housing Authority , specifically three properties in the Orange Tree Mobile Home Park, with space numbers 101, 106, and 134. All three formerly had income restricti on covenants that have since expired. The properties, however, are continually rented to seniors with incomes at or below 120% of AMI. During FY 2020-21, the final loan for Orange Tree space number 24 was fully paid.
HSC Section 34176.1(e) requires all real properties acquired by a redevelopment agency before February 1, 2012 and transferred to the housing successor to be developed pursuant to the requirements detailed in HSC Section 33334.16. All property that falls within these parameters must be developed for affordable housing purposes or sold by September 5, 2017. Because the properties were already developed for affordable housing purposes the above requirements have been satisfied.
LOANS RECEIVABLE
There were 12 loan agreements transferred from the former Agency to the Authority following dissolution, and approval by DOF on September 5, 2012. As of June 30, 2025, the following loan agreements have outstanding balances or have been fully repaid. Some of these loans were included in the HAT, while others were issued after the HAT was published.

COMPLIANCE WITH EXPENDITURE & PRODUCTION LIMITS
During the 2024-25 year, the Housing Authority complied with all annual and five- to ten-year planning period requirements as described in this section.
Proportionality Requirements
The Housing Authority fully complied with all Housing Asset Fund spending restrictions:
• During FY 2024-25, the Housing Authority expended $737,641 on allowable administrative expenses which are under the current annual maximum limit of $ 270,700 ( $200,000 plus inflation), or 5 % of the Housing Successor Portfolio balance , whichever is greater . As shown earlier in the Annual Report , the Portfolio balance is $26,432,794 of which 5 percent is $1,321,640.
• For FY 2024-25, no expenditures were reported for the projects with units restricted to households for extremely low, very low and low income . Additionally, the Housing Authority d id not have expenditures for homeless prevention or rapid rehousing.
The Housing Authority will ensure it continues to meet all Housing Asset Fund expenditure requirements throughout the current five-year compliance period of July 1, 2024, through June 30, 202 9, and future five-year compliance periods.
Failure to comply with the extremely low-income requirement in any five-year compliance period results in the Housing Authority having to ensure that 50 percent of the remaining funds will be spent on extremely low-income rental units until the Housing Authority demonstrates it complies again.
Chula Vista Housing Successor Annual Report 2024-25
13 Senior Rental Housing Limit Compliance
Under HSC Section 34176 (b), a maximum of 50 percent of deed-restricted rental housing units assisted by the former Agency, Housing Authority, or City in the previous 10 years may be restricted to seniors.
The Housing Authority is within the limit since 39 percent of the total aggregate number of rental units produced within the preceding ten years were restricted to seniors. The Housing Authority, City, and former Agency assisted 310 deed-restricted rental units in the last ten years, 122 of which are restricted to seniors, as shown in Table 4.

Excess Surplus
The Housing Asset Fund may not accumulate an “excess surplus”, an unencumbered amount that exceeds the greater of $1 million, or the sum of deposits in the prior four fiscal years. This requirement ensures that housing successors are actively spending available Housing Asset Funds on affordable housing.
The Housing Authority had an excess surplus in FY 2024-25 as shown in Table 5. The Housing Authority also had an excess surplus from FY 2023-24, which amounted to $10,969,524. Of the excess surplus from FY 2023-24, $8,255,977 was encumbered and the remaining surplus must be spent or encumbered by FY 2026-27 and the surplus from this year must be expended or encumbered by FY 2027-28.

Compliance
Period
(currently
2024-25 to
2028-29)
Every five years (currently FY s 2024-2029), Housing Asset Funds must meet income targets:
• At least 30% on extremely low income rental households (up to 30% AMI or “Area Median Income”)
• No more than 20% on low income households (60-80% AMI)
Moderate and above moderate income households may not be assisted (above 80% AMI).
Failure to comply with the extremely low income requirement in any five-year compliance period will result in having to ensure that 50 percent of remaining funds be spent on extremely low income rental units until in compliance.
Exceeding the expenditure limit for low households earning between 60-80% AMI in any five-year reporting period will result in not being able to expend any funds on these income categories until in compliance.
Age Targets
Rolling Ten-
Year Period
(looks back at
prior ten
years)
For the prior ten years (resets every year), a maximum of 50% of deed-restricted rental housing units assisted by the Housing Successor or its host jurisdiction may be restricted to seniors.
If a housing successor fails to comply, Housing Asset Funds may not be spent on deed-restricted rental housing restricted to seniors until in compliance.
