Daly City 2030 General Plan | Housing Element 2023-2031 195 accessibility improvements to housing for a person with disabilities. All four programs are funded annually with City CDBG funds. Reasonable Accommodations
Reasonable Accommodation Procedure. In 2014 the City established a formal reasonable accommodation procedure in order to ensure that the City’s development standards do not present a barrier to community members with disabilities. A request for reasonable accommodation may be made by any in dividual with a disability, his or her representative, or a developer or provider of housing for individuals with disabilities, when the application of a land use, zoning or building regulation, policy, practice or proced ure acts as a barrier to fair housing opportunities. Reasonable accommodations requests shall be reviewed by the Director of Community Development, after which the Director will issue a written decision. Appeals to an adverse decision may be made to the City Council.

The written decision to grant, grant with modifications, or deny a request for reasonable accommodation shall be consistent with fair housing laws and based on the following factors:

1. Whether the housing, which is the subject of the request for reasonable accommodation, will be used by an individual with disabilities protected under fair housing laws;

2. Whether the requested accommodation is necessary to make housing available to an individual with disabilities protected under the fair housing laws;

3. Whether the requested accommodation would impose an undue financial or administrative burden on the jurisdiction; and

4. Whether the requested accommodation would require a fundamental alteration in the nature of the jurisdiction's land use and zoning or building program.

Accessibility Requirements. The City does not presently have any explicit accessibility guidelines above and beyond those contained in the adopted Building Code.

Separation Requirements. The City’s municipal code does not impose any separation requirements for group homes or residential care facilities.

Definition of Family. The Daly City Municipal Code defines a family as “one or more persons living together as a single housekeeping unit in a dwelling unit.”
Permit Processing Procedures
The Zoning Ordinance identifies the residential types permitted, permitted with a use permit, or not allowed in each zone allowing residential uses. Permitted uses are those uses allowed without discretionary review and require only a building permit as lo ng as the project complies with all development standards and design guidelines.

The permit requirements for each housing type allowed in each zoning district are identified in Table HE-55.

As identified in the table, the development review process is very expedient for new residential development proposed in a residential zone. Most approvals may be made at the staff level, and Design Review Committee (DRC) approval is required only for projects where four or more units are proposed, and for which an entitlement necessitating a public hearing is required. The DRC, which consists of the two City Council members appointed by the Mayor, has the ability to approve non-discretionary projects or discretionary projects that are exempt from the requirements of the California Environment Quality Act.

Otherwise, City Council certification of either a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) or Environmental Impact Report (EIR) is required. At the present time, there are no known environmental constraints affecting any housing sites identified in the sites inventory within the 2023-2031 planning period.

196 Daly City 2030 General Plan | Housing Element 2023-2031 Despite the expediency of constructing new residential projects on residentially zoned land, the most significant additions to the housing supply in Daly City have occurred in multiple -family apartment and condominium buildings exceeding 50 dwelling units per acre. Due to permit requirements in place at the time of their construction, these types of buildings have typically been subject to a use permit (due to their location in the C -1 zone on Mission Street or Geneva Avenue), a subdivision map (because the y involve a condominium), or both. In certain cases, typically involving projects outside the Mission Street/Geneva Avenue corridors, a rezoning may have also been required. In rare circumstances, an amendment to the General Plan Land Use Map may be required as a part of project approval.

All subdivisions (including condominium maps) and use permits must be approved by the City Council with a recommendation from the Planning Commission. Typical findings of a residential subdivision include that the project is consistent with the General Plan, that the site on which the subdivision is to be located is physically suitable for the number of lots proposed, and that adequate infrastructure exists to serve the proposed subdivision. The findings for a use permit are similar, adding that the use is compatible with surrounding uses and the neighborhood character and that the project would not jeopardize the public health, safety, and welfare. Rezonings and General Plan amendments are legislative acts and are therefore not subject to written findings.

Staff has completed an analysis as to whether any of the findings identified in the preceding paragraph have been detrimental to project approvals, in terms of additional processing time, cost, and developer certainty. In a review of approximately 35 plann ing entitlement applications, including rezonings and major and minor subdivisions, that the City Council has considered since the adoption of the current Housing Element in 2004, in no instance did mandated findings present an obstacle to the Council granting these approvals. In fact, the City Council approved all 35 applications, adopting the required findings in each instance. Table HE-72 provides the typical processing time by type of approval.

Daly City 2030 General Plan | Housing Element 2023-2031 197 The time it takes for developers to secure any of the above entitlements varies depending on factors such as the nature, size, location, and complexity of the project, including the involvement of other agencies.

Table HE-72 identifies the typical processing time most common in the entitlement process. It should be noted that, for projects requiring more than one entitlement, the City processes these entitlements concurrently. For example, the condominium map and environmental review for a new mixed-use project could be processed concurrently with the City Council’s consideration of the subdivision map for the project. In 2008, the City Council adopted revisions to the Zoning Ordinance to allow concurrent processing of design review and other discretionary a pprovals that required Planning Commission and City Council approval. This change removed the requirement for projects which had been approved by the City Council to return to the Design Review Committee for additional review. When looking at timeframes from project approval to issuance of a building permit, the city reviewed past projects and determined a range of 8 to 15 months. As identified in Table HE-73, typical permit processing times range from one week for simple projects where only a building permit is required to several months for more complicated projects involving substantial environmental review. Projects that require the preparation and adoption of an EIR are subject to the greatest processing time, often exceeding six months. The requirement for an EIR, however, is extremely rare because the City in most instances has determined that a Mitigated Negative Declaration is sufficient for residential development projects.

The Planning Division continually maintains a database of all project entitlement timelines and completion rates. Table HE -73 provides an overview of these timelines for all applications containing residential development deemed complete since 2015. As identified by the table, of the 18 projects processed by the Planning Division, the Planning Commission and City Council have a pproved 100 percent of the application and of these approximately 39 percent have either been constructed or are under construction, and an additional 17 percent are in plan check. Processing times for these applications are varied due to a number of factors, including applicant timelines for completeness resubmittal and more complicated CEQA document development. Almost three-quarters of the applications processed since 2015 have involved either legislative -type approval (e.g., rezoning or General Plan amendments ). The City Council has also approved 100 percent of all time extension requests.

Daly City 2030 General Plan | Housing Element 2023-2031 199 Recent projects with particularly long development timelines have all experienced delays that are believed to be outside of City control. For example, t he Pacific Place Retail Conversion project experienced a change of owner during its development process, but is in the plan check phase. Of the projects listed in Table HE-73 that were not completed or that are not currently under construction, six are on the pipeline projects list in Table HE-47; further details about the current status of these projects are available in this table. The remaining incomplete projects that are in the approved or plan check phase have mostly experienced delays that were not explained to the City. The Second Avenue project had plans that were ready for construction, but permits were not pulled, possibly due at least in part to the COVID-19 pandem ic. Similarly, the Station Avenue Apartment project has not proceeded without explanation. The owner of the Templeton Homes project has indicated that the project is moving forward, but has not indicated the barrier to completing the plan check process or initiating construction. The Third Avenue Townhouses project had an extended review period due to completeness items that needed to be submitted before the City could deem the project complete for public hearing. However, since this project application was submitted, the planning division has revised its application form to simplify and streamline project completeness review. Through Task 6.9 , the City will track the average time from approval to pulling building permits and conduct proactive outreach on an annual basis to developers of projects that are approved or in the plan check process . Through this outreach the City will work with developers to identify possible barriers to project completion and, where possible, identify opportunities for the City to support funding applications or facilitate partnerships that will move projects to completion.

Of the projects listed in Table HE-48 none required the preparation of the EIR. All projects were either processed through the adoption of a Mitigated Negative Declaration or a determination that the project is exempt from CEQA. CEQA grants exemptions to projects in urban in-fill sites that are five-acres or less in size, have adequate infrastructure in place to accommodate the number of units proposed, and do not require rezoning or General Plan amendment.

To assist in streamlining the development review process, the Planning Division developed design guidelines for both new single-family homes and mixed-use development, but the guidelines were never adopted and are implemented only informally. In anticipation that the City will receive more applications for larger mixed -use buildings, especially along Geneva Avenue and Mission Street, Task 1.3 has been added to this Housing Element and commits the City to reviewing these existing design guidelines to ensure that they address instances where higher -density development is proposed adjacent to lower - density neighborhoods. Also, in an effort to increase developer certainty, a new task amending the automatic expiration for all discretionary land use approvals has been added as Task 2.3. Lastly, Tasks 1.3 and 2.1 will remove the requirements for use permits for mixed -use projects in the C -MU, C-1, and C -2, zones.

In addition to design guidelines, the City offers developers an opportunity to receive feedback from a two-member ad hoc City Council Committee prior to committing to the entitlement process. These committee meetings are particularly useful to developers of affordable housing projects, where potential issues can be scoped in the initial stages and resolved to minimize or avoid the creation of conflicts or controversy that could derail an affordable housing project.

CEQA Streamlining
In accordance with Government Code section 65943, the City provides a determination in writing of application completeness within 30 days of submission. This may be extended once for up to 90 days with the mutual consent of the City and applicant.

In accordance with PRC 21080.1 & 21080.2, the City determines if a housing project is exempt from CEQA within 30 days of receiving a complete application.

200 Daly City 2030 General Plan | Housing Element 2023-2031 In compliance with Government Code section 65950, the City approves or disapproves projects within the timelines specified by statute. Projects are approved or denied within whichever timeframe is applicable to the project:

1. Where an environmental impact report (EIR) is prepared, within 180 days from the date of the certification of the EIR by the lead agency, or within 120 days for a “development project”. A “development project” refers to a project that is either entirely re sidential or is a mixed -use project where non-residential uses are less than 50 percent of the total square footage of the development and non-residential uses are limited to first-floor neighborhood commercial uses in a building of two or more stories.

2. Where an EIR is prepared for a “development project”, projects will either be approved or disapproved within 90 days from the date of certification by the lead agency where at least 49 percent of units are affordable to very low or low -income households an d these units are deed - restricted affordable units for at least 30 years in the case of rental housing. The lead agency must also have received written notice from the project applicant that an application has been made or will be made for an allocation or commitment of financing, such as tax credits, bond authority, or other financial assistance from a public agency or federal agency, where this notice specifies the financial assistance that has been applied for or will be applied for and the deadline for application for that assistance, that a prerequisite for funding includes approval of the development by the lead agency, and that the financial assistance is necessary for the project to be affordable. Applicants must confirm that the application has been made to the public or federal agency prior to certification of the EIR.

3. Where a negative declaration is completed and adopted for the development project, within 60 days from the date of adoption by the lead agency.

4. Where a project is determined to be exempt from CEQA, within 60 days of determination of exemption by the lead agency. Design Review
The City does not have adopted objective design guidelines. Design review is required for projects with four or more units where the residential project is allowed by right. Per Chapter 17.45 of the City’s Code of Ordinances, in approving a design review plan or site plan, the director of economic and community development, the design review committee, or city council must make the following findings:

A. The provisions of this chapter and any applicable guidelines are complied with; B. The approval of the plan is in the best interest of the public health, safety and general welfare of the community;
C. General site considerations, including site layout, open space and topography, orientation and location of buildings, vehicular access, circulation and parking, setbacks, heights, walls, fences, public safety and similar elements have been designed to provide a desirable environment; D. General architectural considerations, including the character, scale and quality of the design, the architectural relationship with the site and other buildings, building materials, colors, screening of exterior appurtenances, exterior lighting and signing and similar elements have been incorporated in order to insure the compatibility of this development with its design concept and the character of other adjacent buildings;
E. General landscape considerations of Chapter 17.41, Landscaping, have been provided to insure visual relief, to complement buildings and structures and to provide an attractive environment for the enjoyment of the public.

Daly City 2030 General Plan | Housing Element 2023-2031 201 In Task 2. 2 of the Housing Element, the City will establish objective standards for design review and eliminate the requirements for Design Review Committee approval for all residential development.

Projects Developed Below Minimum Density
The City does not currently permit the development of projects below the minimum density required by the site’s zone and land use designation. Were a developer to propose a project at a density below the minimum, this would require a heavily scrutinized re zoning and potentially redesignating other sites to replace RHNA units.

Senate Bill 330
SB 330, the Housing Crisis Act of 2019, established specific requirements and limitations on development application procedures. Housing developments for which a preliminary application is submitted that complies with applicable general plan and zoning sta ndards is subject only to the development standards and fees that were applicable at the time of submittal. This applies to all projects unless the project square footage or unit count changes by more than 20 percent after the preliminary application is submitted. The developer must submit a full application for the development project within 180 days of submitting the preliminary application.

The City does not currently have a process in place to address SB 330. As part of Task 11.4 the City will establish a formal application process that is compliant with SB 330.

Senate Bill 35
SB 35 requires jurisdictions that have failed to meet their RHNA to provide a streamlined, ministerial entitlement process for housing developments that incorporate affordable housing. The City does not currently have a process in place to address SB 35. A s part of Task 11.4 the City will establish a formal SB 35 application process.

Local Ordinances
Growth Management
There are no growth management policies in Daly City that would limit the City’s ability to meet its housing needs.

Short-Term Rental Ordinance
The City established a short -term rental ordinance in 2020 to provide short -term lodging while also preventing the replacement of long-term housing with short-term rentals. The eligibility requirements are as follows:

A. Short-term rentals shall be permitted in single -family residences, condominiums, duplexes, townhomes, and properties with multiple rental units. For owner-occupied properties with multiple rental units, the owner of such property may only host a short -term rental in the dwelling unit that is their primary residence.

B. Short-term rentals shall not be permitted in inclusionary housing or other income-restricted housing units or on properties with accessory dwelling units or junior accessory dwelling units.

C. Vacation rentals, as defined in this chapter, are prohibited and shall not be operated in the city.

202 Daly City 2030 General Plan | Housing Element 2023-2031 Inclusionary Zoning Ordinance (DCMC Chapter 17.47).

In recognition of the fact that neither federal nor state funding for affordable housing construction will be sufficient to fully address Daly City’s affordable housing problem, nor will the private housing market likely provide affordable housing opportun ities to low -income households, the City Council adopted an Inclusionary Zoning Ordinance in 2007. The City’s Inclusionary Housing ordinance, Chapter 17.47 of Title 17 of the Daly City Municipal Code, was adopted in September 2007, then repealed and replac ed by an Affordable Housing Ordinance adopted in April 2014 and revised in 2018 . The Affordable Housing Ordinance requires the following:

Residential developments with fewer than 20 rental units or 15 ownership units will pay the required in Lieu Fees established in the City’s Affordable Housing Fee schedule.

1. For-Sale Projects: twenty percent (20%) of the dwelling units in the Residential Development shall be sold at an Affordable Sales Price to households whose annual income does not exceed Moderate Income.

2. Rental Projects: ten percent (10%) of the dwelling units in the Residential Development shall be made available for rent at an Affordable Rent to households whose annual income does not exceed Low Income.

In lieu of constructing the on -site Inclusionary Units, a developer may elect to pay an Alternative In Lieu fee. These fees are used to increase and improve the supply of housing affordable to moderate -, low-, and very low-income households in the city.

As of 2018, the required in lieu fee for ownership units is $45 per livable square foot, for rental units the fee is $35 per livable square foot, and the Alternative In Lieu fee for rentals is $48 per square foot. Alternative rental in lieu fees are set at a rate equal to the total livable square footage of the development multiplied by the alternative in lieu fee established in the city’s affordable housing fee schedule, which is an amount equal to the approximate per-unit cost that the city would incur to subsidize the development of an equal number of rental inclusionary units such that they could be offered for rent at affordable rent. As discussed in the analysis of affordable units at risk of converting to market rate, estimated acquisition costs are estimated to be between $450,000 and $500,000 per unit. The per -unit cost for constructing a new unit is estimated to be $732,500 based o n a 10 -unit project and $786,500 per unit for a 100 -unit project. To provide a 30 -year subsidy for an existing unit, the subsidy would be approximately $607,680 based on existing gaps between HUD fair market r ents and the share of rent costs that could be paid by an extremely low income household of four. Assuming a 20-unit project with an average unit size of 1,500 square feet, the Alternative In Lieu fee of $48 per square foot would cost $720,000 per unit. This is similar to the cost the city would incur in building a unit of affordable housing, and higher than the estimated cost the city could incur in purchasing, or subsidizing a unit of affordable housing, depending on actual purchase prices or subsidy costs.

Inclusionary zoning ordinances like Daly City’s are sometimes perceived as adding to the cost of housing by requiring market -rate units in the particular project to subsidize the affordable units in that same project. The City’s inclusionary zoning ordinan ce recognizes that there could be instances when the inclusionary housing requirements make market -rate housing more expensive. However, the City has made a conscious decision that the community’s interests are best served by the adoption of the ordinance to address the environmental and job-housing balance inequities that would result if the City took no action to ensure that all income groups maintain access to the marketplace for new rental and for-sale homes.

Daly City 2030 General Plan | Housing Element 2023-2031 203 As of April 2023, four for -sale projects have been subject to the Affordable Housing Ordinance. It is speculated that the market-rate units were used to subsidize the affordable units in the projects. In a 2019 policy brief on inclusionary zoning from George Mason University’s Mercatus Center, researcher Emily Hamilton noted that for a mandatory inclusionary zoning program to avoid limiting the new construction of housing, the value of a local density bonus must outweigh the cost of providing affordable uni ts24.

However, Hamilton also noted that only two of the eight optional inclusionary zoning programs studied in the Washington DC metro area produced any affordable units during the study period, suggesting that an effective inclusionary program should remain mandatory. The City currently provides a robust density bonus program in addition to the inclusionary housing requirement. When an application is submitted that meets the inclusionary requirements, and a density bonus is requested as a part of the project, the City processes the density bonus request the same as the original application is processed.

Additionally, in a 2015 study by Ann Hollingshead and published by the Lincoln Institute of Land Use Policy that was based on jurisdictions in California, weakening of inclusionary requirements is associated with an overall increase in the average cost of housing25. This increase is driven by an increase in the cost of below market-rate units that is not outweighed by the price decrease at the upper end of the rent spectrum.

To ensure the most effective implementation of the City’s inclusionary zoning ordinance, two tasks have been added to the Objectives, Policies, and Tasks section of this Housing Element. Task 10.2 requires that the City will ensure effective dissemination about the Inclusionary Zoning Ordinance to prospective property purchasers and developers and prepare paper and electronic brochures to assist these individuals to better understand and determine their obligation under the ordinance. Task 10.3 mandates that the City adopt a disclosure requirement about the existence of an inclusionary zoning ordinance in Daly City and that directs property purchasers to the City for additional details. This disclosure would be required for transactions of properties over a certain size and valuation that could be subject to the City’s inclusionary zoning ordinance.

Availability of Infrastructure
Since the vacant, residentially zoned properties are either small or moderate in size and are scattered throughout the city, it is unlikely that any development will create a serious, additional demand on existing services and infrastructure (i.e., water, distribution lines, sewer collection system, etc.). The North San Mateo County Sanitation District completed a $23 million modification to its treatment facility, increasing capacity from 8 million gallons per day to 10.3 million gallons per day. This expansion, completed in 1990, was in response to a serious lack of capacity that resulted in a sewer connection moratorium during 1986-87. The expanded capacity will easily serve all projected new growth.

Daly City’s water system is served by primarily by the City but in small part by Cal Water, a private provider.

This system is expected to be adequate to serve future needs. The City receives water from groundwater, water purchased from the City and County of San Francisco, and recycled water. According to the City’s 2020 Municipal Services Report, 2020 demand among single and multifamily residential uses was equal to a combined 1,675 million gallons (MG) out of a total of 2,174 MG that was used for all con nection types, including losses. It is estimated that by 2030, residential demand will equal 1,561 million gallons out of a total demand of 2,101 MG systemwide. The City’s estimates account for future water savings that will come from the city’s existing and continuing water conservation measures, including water savings devices, public education, reducing water losses, water surveys, and rain capture programs. The 2020

204 Daly City 2030 General Plan | Housing Element 2023-2031 systemwide supply was 3,830 MG in 2020 and is expected to be 3,828 MG in 2030. It is therefore estimated that there will be sufficient capacity for future demand in the city even when accounting for projected population growth.

Portions of the system, including the Bayshore neighborhood, will need expanded storage capacity to meet future fire flow requirements for residential development. In addition, Daly City is working with the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission to address integrated resource management issues associated with conjunctive use of supplemental surface water to recharge groundwater supplies, and development of tertiary recycled water as an irrigation source to local golf courses. These strategies are intende d to extend available resources to meet projected water needs, but none of these improvements are perceived to pose a significant limitation to long-term residential growth.

Upon adoption of the Housing Element, the City will provide a copy of the adopted Housing Element to each of the City’s water and sewer providers, advising each of these agencies of the City’s intention to comply with Government Code Section 65589.7, which requires these providers to grant priority service allocation to proposed developments that include housing units affordable to lower-income households.

This is included as Policy HE 7.

Dry Utilities
Electricity service is provided by PG&E. Landline telephone service is provided by AT&T, and home internet service is provided by several private companies, including Astound. It is not expected that additional housing development will put strain on the availability of these systems, nor it is expected t hat service providers will face challenges in serving new development with these utilities.

Housing Within the Coastal Zone
Much of the area encompassed by the Coastal Zone in Daly City is developed with single -family detached homes built in the 1950s and 1960s as part of the Westlake neighborhood. Portions of the zone that are undeveloped include a 2.6-mile beach that is largely inaccessible due to steep and high coastal bluffs immediately west of the aforementioned homes. These bluffs are exceedingly steep and rugged and, as a result, largely preclude further development.

Since the City adopted its first Coastal Element in 1984, new private development has been sporadic, and none of it has introduced new residents to the area. Rather, nonseismic landslides caused a number of single-family homes in the Coastal Zone to be rem oved. None of these removed homes included deed- restricted affordable housing, and there are presently no homes that are known to be threatened by landslide activity.

Housing Near the San Francisco Airport
The Airport Influence Area for San Francesco Airport includes two parts: Area A and Area B. Most of the City is within Area B except for some portions north of San Bruno Mountain. Area A is the larger of the two areas and encompasses all of San Mateo County. Area B lies within Area A and includes land exposed to aircraft noise above CNEL 65 dB or lying below critical airspa ce. The City is within AIA A, and portions of the City are also in AIA B. Any future housing projects in this area would be conditionally compatible with the noise compatibility policies adopted in the Comprehensive Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan for the Environs of San Francisco International Airport, (SFO ALUCP)plan provided that such housing projects incorporate sound insulation to reduce interior noise levels from exterior sources to 45 dB CNEL or lower and that an avigation easement is granted to the City and County of San Francisco as the operator of the Airport. Therefore, identified sites would not appear to be inconsistent wit h the noise compatibility policies adopted in the SFO ALUCP.

Daly City 2030 General Plan | Housing Element 2023-2031 205 Nongovernmental Constraints to Housing Production
Constraints attributable to the private market that affect the improvement, maintenance, and production of housing are generally categorized as nongovernmental constraints. The imbalance between housing supply and demand makes housing costs in the Bay Area among the nation’s highest.

The high costs of development, financing, and land are the greatest barriers to the provision of affordable housing.

Land Costs
Daly City’s proximity to the San Francisco employment center and the rapidly increasing job opportunities there have created an environment that makes Daly City a desirable place to live. Market forces continue to push land costs upward, resulting in an increase in housing costs. As the cost of housing rises at a much greater rate than income, there is less opportunity for home ownership to a growing proportion of Daly City residents. Additionally, there is an increasing number of households who can barely afford the home they purchased and, as a result, cannot afford expenditures on routine maintenance and repair.

It is anticipated that land costs within the City’s Priority Development Areas, especially along Mission Street, will increase over time as new development replaces older, existing residential buildings; infrastructure improvements take place; and the desirability of living closer to BART, Samtrans, and other public transit opportunities increases. While this evolution of land use would increase the overall volume of housing in the area, an unintended consequence could be an increase in housing overpayment, overcrowding, degraded housing conditions, and displacement of existing lower -income households unable to afford market-rate newer development.

According to a 2022 study performed by Century Urban, there were insufficient data points available from the last three years to evaluate land purchases of up to one acre for single-family development. However, in nearby Pacifica the median cost for land f or the development of a single-family home was $447,500.

For multifamily projects, the median per -unit land cost was $45,000. This was the lowest median cost per unit of any San Mateo jurisdiction included in the survey.

In anticipation that new development projects could impact existing residents negatively, Housing Element Task 5. 2 requires that the City evaluate the potential impacts of displacement and adopt measures, as appropriate, to address the risk of displacement of existing residents. Displacement might be direct, caused by the redevelopment of sites with existing residential properties, or indirect, caused by increased market rents as an area becomes more desirable. If adopted, the City would implement programs as appropriate to address displacement, monitor such programs annually for effectiveness, and make adjustments as necessary.

Market Conditions
Another potential constraint to housing rehabilitation in some portions of Daly City is the uncertainty some property owners may feel toward the long -term prospects for upgrading a neighborhood. Areas where this could be a constraint are generally the older neighborhoods east of Interstate 280.

Many of the current building condition problems stem from the inability of some Daly City residents to pay for well -maintained, standard housing. In this regard, the housing problem is basically a problem of poverty. A low-income family cannot pay prevailing rents for decent housing without imposing a severe strain on the family budget. They have two choices: spend an inordinately high percentage of income to get a standard unit or spend a more reasonable amount and accept substandard housing.

206 Daly City 2030 General Plan | Housing Element 2023-2031 Landlords may face a similar dilemma. Revenues received from a building must match the operating cost, including mortgage payments, taxes, insurance, and basic upkeep. If there are no tenants willing or able to pay the amount needed to maintain the building in good condition, costs are usually reduced by cutting back on maintenance and repair. Ignoring needed repairs causes the building to deteriorate — and with it, the neighborhood.

Construction Costs
Based on an estimate generated by Century Urban as part of a 2022 study, construction cost, without considering land costs, financing, etc., for an average single -family home in San Mateo or Santa Clara County is approximately $420 per square foot, or $1,040,000 fo r a 2,600 -square-foot home. For a small multifamily project with 10 units and 10,000 square feet of residential area as well as 3,750 square feet of surface parking, construction costs are estimated at $522 per square foot or $521,500 per unit, for a total construction hard cost of $5,215,000.

Availability of Financing
Financing costs reached an all-time high in the first part of this decade. The lack of affordable financing has led to a proliferation of creative financing packages including variable rate mortgages, balloon payments, interest -only loans, equity participa tion, and other techniques. The long -term outlook for interest rates is highly uncertain and will be influenced by such factors as deficit spending by the federal government, federal housing policy, borrowing needs of businesses and individuals, and the mo netary policy of the Federal Reserve Board. These are all factors over which Daly City has little or no influence. In the spirit of the overall Housing Goal, the City must recognize the constraints in establishing realistic policies. The City has and shoul d continue to sponsor and/or administer interest -rate-reducing programs (e.g., Housing Revenue Bond and Residential Rehabilitation Programs that benefit specific groups like low- and moderate -income households, first -time home buyers, and groups with speci al needs) as well as HOME funds, PLHA funds, and finding from the Housing Trust Fund.

Energy Conservation
In 2015 City enacted an expedited, streamlined solar permitting process that complies with the Solar Rights Act and AB 2188 (Chapter 521, Statutes 2014) to achieve timely and cost -effective installations of small residential rooftop solar energy systems. T he adoption of these regulations expanded the ability of property owners to install solar energy systems while protecting the public health and safety.

The City Council voted to join Peninsula Clean Energy (PCE) in January 2016. Through this program, Daly City has been able to join with other local jurisdictions to combine their electricity demand to buy and develop clean energy sources on behalf of its residents.

The City has also joined Bay Area Sunshares, along with nearly 40 cities and employers across the Bay Area. The program offers discounts on solar energy and energy storage systems to residents as well as information on financing options. The City advertises the State program Energy Upgrade California, which provides incentives and rebates on energy efficiency upgrades and a home energy assessment.

The City provides Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) financing, through which homeowners can finance energy- and water-saving upgrades through their property tax bills. The City also advertises the State’s Energy Upgrade California through its website t o inform residents of additional incentives for improvements to electric, gas, heating, air conditioning, water, and waste systems.

Daly City 2030 General Plan | Housing Element 2023-2031 207 Housing Objectives, Policies, and Tasks
The California Government Code Section 65583(b)(1) requires the Housing Element to contain “a statement of goals, quantified objectives, and policies relative to the maintenance, preservation, improvement, and development of housing.” This chapter fulfills that requirement and builds on information in previous chapters to provide direction on key housing issues in Daly City.

Daly City’s Housing Objectives
Daly City’s Housing Element has the following objectives:
 Objective HE-1: Accommodate growing population by promoting housing construction.  Objective HE-2: Explore a variety of alternative mechanisms to increase housing affordability.  Objective HE-3: Use vacant and underutilized sites to provide future housing opportunities.  Objective HE-4: Encourage a variety of housing types and tenures for all income levels and ensure access to housing by all groups or individuals.
 Objective HE-5: Ensure that the quality of housing is continually maintained or upgraded, and the existing housing supply is not negatively affected by reconstruction.  Objective HE 6: Reduce unnecessary or wasteful energy practices and encourage more energy- efficient housing.
 Objective HE 7: Increase the supply of housing in a manner that does not negatively impact the quality of life in existing adjacent neighborhoods.

The information, analyses, recommendations, and programs (tasks) offered in this Housing Element are aimed at the accomplishment of a single housing goal, which was developed as part of the Envision Daly City process completed as part of the General Plan Update in 2009. Since considerable effort was expended to develop this goal, the City has continued this vision and has included it in the 2023 -2031 Housing Element:
“Daly City will include well-designed housing choices for a variety of household incomes, life stages, and its diverse population with a good balance between ownership and rental units. Mission Street and Geneva Avenue will be urban corridors with unique m ixed-use developments and public improvement projects that add to vibrancy of these streets.”
This goal allows a wider range of choices for those who have few, if any, choices. The housing goal promotes opportunities to choose a location where they want to live; select a dwelling that meets their needs, both physically and financially; and improve their living environment. An underlying theme in Daly City's General Plan, which is especially true in the Housing Element, is that as each individual is better off with more choices in any decision, so are we all.

Policies and Tasks
Table HE-74 provides specific housing policies and the tasks necessary to implement the housing goal and identifies the specific department charged with implementing each policy’s task, the estimated completion date for each task, and the funding source that the City will use to implement each task.

Policy HE.1: Maintain and, where possible, create larger housing development sites throughout the city.

1.1 Establish a Commercial Mixed-Use (C-MU) zone for areas targeted for mixed-use development and establish development regulations, including reduced parking requirements, in the Zoning Ordinance specifically for higher-density mixed-use development.

Implementation of the C-MU zone will encourage the development of higher-density multifamily residential development and mixed-use projects in close proximity to commercial areas.

1.2 Allow for a lot merger incentive allowance in the C-MU zone whereby property owners electing to merge two or more adjacent lots for the purpose of development are provided specific incentives to do so.

The incentive program shall establish incentives that are significant enough to promote voluntary lot mergers and shall be commensurate with the size of the parcels being merged and/or created (see also Land Use Element Task LU 1.2).

1.3 Remove the use permit requirement for mixed-use projects in the C- MU Commercial Mixed-Use zone that provide a residential component resulting in an overall net density of at least 30 dwelling units per acre and which also contain a first-floor commercial component that occupies a proportion of the total building area identified by the Zoning Ordinance. Proposed development consistent with this density, the Zoning Ordinance, and any applicable design guidelines would be permitted “by right,” without requirement for discretionary approvals. Review existing design guidelines to ensure that they address instances where higher-density development is proposed adjacent to lower-density neighborhoods.

1.4 Amend the Zoning Ordinance to identify specific findings for adoption by the Planning Commission and City Council when approving any rezoning or redesignation involving a residentially zoned or residentially designated property to any zone or designation other than residential. For the purpose of this policy, the C-MU (Commercial Mixed-use) zone shall be considered a residential zone. The findings identified by the Zoning Ordinance shall relate to finding that the rezoning or redesignation is necessary to ensure that the City will not be economically impaired, that the City has, since the Housing Element adoption, met its housing construction target, and that the rezoning or redesignation does not involve a property identified by the Potential Housing Sites Inventory List for which a replacement site has not been identified.

6.13 The City will encourage the development of missing-middle housing types that are affordable by design that can provide opportunities for housing that can accommodate the needs, preferences, and financial capabilities of current and future residents in terms of different housing types, tenures, density, sizes, and costs.

Missing middle housing is typically multiple rental units on a single parcel (whether attached or detached) that are compatible in scale and form with traditional single-family homes with one- or two- story forms. Examples include duplexes, triplexes, courtyard apartments.

Allowing the development of units in this form will help the incorporation of rental housing within the existing, primarily single- family ownership units within neighborhoods. The City will accomplish this by:
• Allowing corner lots in R1 zoning districts to develop as multi - family rental housing using R3 zoning regulations to encourage missing-middle developments, in conjunction with state ADU law to allow for 2 units and 2 ADUs on a former single family lot. • Allowing lots zoned for single -family residential uses that abut (either shares a property line or is directly across the street from) property that fronts an arterial or major collector and is zoned and used for commercial or mixed -use development, to
develop with rental multi -family housing using R2 zoning regulations to encourage missing middle housing , in
conjunction with state ADU law to allow for 2 units and 2 ADUs on a former single family lot..
• Facilitate the development of such housing types through developing a streamlined application and review process, providing technical assistance, informing qualifying property owners of their development rights, and conducting additional marketing and outreach of missing middle development.

Daly City

Daly City, CA 94015

Dear Michael Van Lonkhuysen:

RE: Daly City’s 6
th Cycle (2023-2031) Revised Draft Housing Element

Thank you for submitting Daly City’s (City) revised draft housing element received for review on May 16, 2024, along with revisions received on July 10, 2024. The revisions were posted and made available to the public for seven days prior to review. The review was facilitated by conversations on June 27, 2024 and July 3, 2024 with you and the city’s consultant. Pursuant to Government Code section 65585, the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) is reporting the results of its review.

HCD is pleased to find the revised draft housing element meets the statutory requirements of State Housing Element Law (Gov. Code, § 65580 et seq.). However, the housing element cannot be found in substantial compliance until the City has completed necessary rezones as described below. The housing element will comply with State Housing Element Law when rezoning is complete and the element is adopted, submitted to, and approved by HCD, in accordance with Government Code section 65585.

As a reminder, the City’s 6th cycle housing element was due January 31, 2023. As of today, the City has not completed the housing element process for the 6th cycle. The City’s 5th cycle housing element no longer satisfies statutory requirements. HCD encourages the City to expeditiously adopt, rezone and submit to HCD to regain housing element compliance.

For your information, pursuant to Assembly Bill 1398 (Chapter 358, Statutes of 2021), as the City did not adopt a compliant housing element within 120 days of the statutory deadline (January 31, 2023), programs (e.g., Programs 6.3 (Rezone), 6.4 (General Plan) and 6.5 (Increase Densities) to address a shortfall of capacity to accommodate the regional housing need allocation (RHNA), pursuant to Government Code sections 65583, subdivision (c)(1)(A) and 65583.2, subdivision (c), must be completed no later

Michael Van Lonkhuysen, Planning Manager

than one year from the statutory deadline. As this year has passed and Programs 6.3,

6.4 and 6.5 have not been completed, the housing element is out of compliance and will remain out of compliance until the rezoning has been completed. Once the City completes the program, a copy of the resolution or ordinance should be transmitted to HCD. HCD will review the documentation and issue correspondence identifying the updated status of the City’s housing element compliance.

In addition, for your information, If the element relies on nonvacant sites to accommodate 50 percent or more of the housing needs for lower-income households, requirements are triggered to make findings based on substantial evidence (as part of adoption) that the existing use is not an impediment and will likely discontinue in the planning period.

For your information, pursuant to Government Code section 65583.3, subdivision (b), the City must utilize standards, forms, and definitions adopted by HCD when preparing the sites inventory and submit an electronic version of the sites inventory. While the City has submitted an electronic version of the sites inventory, if changes occur, any future re-adopted versions of the element must also submit the electronic version of the sites inventory.

Public participation in the development, adoption and implementation of the housing element is essential to effective housing planning. Throughout the housing element process, the City must continue to engage the community, including organizations that represent lower-income and special needs households, by making information regularly available while considering and incorporating comments where appropriate. Please be aware, any revisions to the element must be posted on the local government’s website and to email a link to all individuals and organizations that have previously requested notices relating to the local government’s housing element at least seven days before submitting to HCD.

Several federal, state, and regional funding programs consider housing element compliance as an eligibility or ranking criteria. For example, the CalTrans Senate Bill (SB) 1 Sustainable Communities grant, the Affordable Housing and Sustainable Communities programs, and HCD’s Permanent Local Housing Allocation consider housing element compliance and/or annual reporting requirements pursuant to Government Code section 65400. With a compliant housing element, the City will meet housing element requirements for these and other funding sources.

For your information, some general plan element updates are triggered by housing element adoption. HCD reminds the City to consider timing provisions and welcomes the opportunity to provide assistance. For information, please see the Technical Advisories issued by the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research at:
https://www.opr.ca.gov/planning/general-plan/guidelines.html

Michael Van Lonkhuysen, Planning Manager

HCD appreciates the hard work and dedication the housing element update team provided throughout the housing element review and update process. HCD looks forward to working with the City through adoption and rezoning. If you have any questions or need additional technical assistance, please contact Sayed Murad of our staff, at [email protected]

Sincerely,

Paul McDougall
Senior Program Manager

Policy HE.1:  Maintain and, where possible, create larger housing development sites throughout the city.

1.1  Establish a Commercial Mixed‐Use (C‐MU) zone for areas targeted for mixed‐use development and establish
development regulations, including reduced parking
requirements, in the Zoning Ordinance specifically for higher‐ density mixed‐use development. Implementation of the C‐MU zone will encourage the development of higher‐density

1.2  Allow for a lot merger incentive allowance in the C‐MU zone whereby property owners electing to merge two or more
adjacent lots for the purpose of development are provided specific incentives to do so. The incentive program shall establish incentives that are significant enough to promote voluntary lot mergers and shall be commensurate with the size of the parcels being merged and/or created (see also Land Use Element Task LU 1.2).

1.3  Remove the use permit requirement for mixed‐use projects in the C‐MU Commercial Mixed‐Use zone that provide a
residential component resulting in an overall net density of at least 30 dwelling units per acre and which also contain a first‐ floor commercial component that occupies a proportion of the total building area identified by the Zoning Ordinance.

Proposed development consistent with this density, the Zoning Ordinance, and any applicable design guidelines would be permitted “by right,” without requirement for discretionary approvals. Review existing design guidelines to ensure that they address instances where higher‐density development is

No new structure in the C-MU district shall exceed ten 15 stories or one hundred twenty 175 feet in height, as measured according to DCMC

17.04.010—Definitions—Building Height. Fifteen additional feet may be permitted for elevator shafts and rooftop mechanical equipment The minimum height of any new structure in the C-MU district shall be three stories or thirty feet.

Any new buildings abutting lots zoned R-1 (single-family residential district) or R- 1/A (single-family/duplex residential district) and over three stories or thirty feet high (whichever is lesser), shall adhere to the transitional height requirements in the C-MU objective design standards.

Building height is measured from the curb at the centerline of the building to the building's highest point. See Section 17.40.040 of the Daly City Zoning Ordinance for building height exceptions. For building structures with a flat roof, the height of the building shall be measured to the roof, not the parapet. Stair and elevator towers at the building roof may exceed the maximum building height by up to ten feet.
(Ord. No. 1469, § 1, 12-11-2023)

The following is an amendment to the Zoning Ordinance Chapter

17.45 – Design Review, which is necessary to ensure compliance with Task 6.7 which stipulates that duplexes and multiple family residential shall be allowed without design review when in compliance with Objective Design Standards adopted by the City Council.

17.45.120 Applicability.

A. Major design review applications shall be reviewed by the design review committee, subject to the provisions in Section 17.45.020(A). Major design review approval shall be required for the following projects:

1. Residential projects consisting of four or more dwelling units;

2. New commercial buildings which exceed two thousand square feet in area or which are located on sites that are two thousand five hundred feet in area or greater;

3. All new industrial projects where the improvements are visible from off- site.

B. Minor design review applications consist of projects associated with concurrent entitlements that involve physical modification of structures or site improvements. Minor design review applications shall be reviewed in conjunction with the additional entitlements by the city council, subject to the provisions of Section 17.45.020(C).

C. Administrative design review applications shall be reviewed and approved by the director of economic and community development. Administrative design review approval shall be required for the following classes of projects:

1. Multifamily residential, commercial, office or industrial buildings incorporating exterior modifications that include any of the following:

A new section would be added to the Zoning Ordinance as follows …

Chapter 17.xx - AIRPORT LAND USE COMPATIBILITY PLAN CONSISTENCY

17.xx.010 - General provisions.

This section establishes standards and requirements related to consistency with the Comprehensive Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan for the Environs of San Francisco International Airport (ALUCP).

The following requirements and criteria shall be incorpor ated into all projects located within the Airport Influence Area applicable to Daly City in the Airport Land Use Plan.

17.xx.020 - Airport Real Estate Disclosure Notices. All new development, including all residential structures. shall be required to comply with the real estate disclosure requirements of California Business and Professions Code Section 11010(b)(13). The following statement shall be included in the notice of intention to offer the property for sale or lease:

“Notice of Airport in Vicinity. This property is presently located in the vicinity of an airport, within what is known as an airport influence area. For that reason, the property may be subject to some of the annoyances or inconveniences associated with proximity to airport operations (for example: noise, vibration, or odors). Individual sensitivities to those annoyances can vary from person to person. You may wish to consider what airport annoyances, if any, are associated with the property before you complete your purchase and determine whether they are acceptable to you.”

17.xx.030 - General provisions Airport Noise Evaluation and Mitigation. Project applicants shall be required to evaluate potential airport noise impacts if the project is located within the CNEL 65 dB contour line of San Francisco International Airport (as mapped in the ALUCP). All projects so located shall be required to mitigate impacts to comply with the interior (CNEL 45 dB or lower, unless otherwise stated) and exterior noise standards established by the ALUCP or [insert city name] General Plan, whichever is more restrictive.

17.xx.040 - General provisions Avigation Easement. Any action that would either permit or result in the development or construction of a land use considered to be conditionally compatible with aircraft noise of CNEL 65 dB or greater (as mapped in the ALUCP) shall include the grant of an avigation easement to the City and County of San Francisco prior to issuance of a building permit(s) for any proposed buildings or structures, consistent with ALUCP Policy NP-3 Grant of Avigation Easement.

A. Maximum Compatible Building Height . Building heights, including related roof -mounted equipment, stair/elevator towers, antennae, exhaust stacks, and other appurtenances, shall not exceed the maximum height limits permissible under either FAA regulations or the Critical Aeronautical Surfaces identified in SFO ALUCP. For avoidance of doubt, the lower of the two heights identified by the ALUCP and the FAA shall be the controlling maximum height. Upon receiving any application for land use entitlement or buil ding permit, the Planning Division

shall consult with SFO/CCAG to determine a proposed project’s compliance with this requirement.

B. Other Flight Hazards . Within Airport Influence Area (AIA) B, certain land use characteristics are recognized as hazards to air navigation and, per ALUCP Policy AP -4, need to be evaluated to ensure compatibility with FAA rules and regulations. These characteristics include the following:

1. Sources of glare, such as highly reflective buildings, building features, or blight lights including search lights, or laser displays, which would interfere with the vision of pilots in command of an aircraft in flight.

2. Distracting lights that could be mistaken for airport identification lightings, runway edge lighting, runway end identification lighting, or runway approach lighting.

3. Sources of dust, smoke, water vapor, or steam that may impair the visibility of a pilot in command of and aircraft in flight.

4. Sources of electrical/electronic interference with aircraft communications/navigation equipment.

5. Any use that creates an increased attraction for wildlife, particularly large flocks of birds, that is inconsistent with FAA rules and regulations, including but not limited to FAA Order 5200.5A, Waste Disposal Site On or Near Airports and FAA Advisory Circular 150/5200-33B, Hazardous Wildlife Attractants On or Near Airports and any successor or replacement orders or advisory circulars.

Task HE 6.5 – “Amend the General Plan Land Use Designations as follows to allow for additional capacity to meet the RHNA:

Increase the permitted density in the Residential – Medium Low Density General Plan Land Use Designation from 14.6 to 20 dwelling units per acre to 14.6 to 35 dwelling units per acre.

Increase the permitted density in the Residential – Medium Density General Plan Land Use Designation from 20.1 to 35 dwelling units per acre to 35.1 to 60 dwelling units per acre.

Increase the permitted density in the Residential High Density General Plan Land Use Designation from 35.1 to 60 dwelling units per acre to 60.1 to 120 dwelling units per acre.

Increase the permitted density in the Residential – Very High Density General Plan Land Use Designation to a minimum of 120.1 dwelling units per acre.”

Land Use Categories

This section provides an overview of the land use designations identified on the General Plan Land Use Map (see Figure LUE-3). The map identifies the general proposed distribution of land uses in Daly City through the use of using the land use categories described below. As such, the map is intended to serve as a general guide for the future distribution of land uses distribution rather than as a parcel - specific map of allowed land uses. Instead, zoning classifications, consistent with the land use categories identified by the General Plan Land Use Map, will be established for this purpose and will be identified on the Zoning Map. Similarly, more specific development regulations will be identified by the Zoning Ordinance. All new residential development shall be permitted and constructed at the minimum and maximum residential densities identified below, subject to the regulations contained in the Zoning Ordinance and the City’s Objective Design Standards.

Residential

The General Plan Land Use Map identifies six residential categories. These categories identify areas in Daly City that are acceptable for housing, clarify the type of housing to be developed within each category, and establish minimum and maximum densities.

Residential densities are expressed as "dwelling units per net acre of land", abbreviated “du/ac”. Net acre means that portion of land used for development on a specific property, excluding streets, easements, and public rights-of-way. This is in contrast to "gross acre of land", a figure that includes all land, whether it be used as a roadway, utility easement, or housing site. Using a "gross" figure is best suited for communities that have not yet constructed streets. In Daly City's case, most of the s treets are built; therefore, residential densities are expressed in net acreage.

In an effort to better describe future residential development and more equitably allocate density among numerous properties within a neighborhood, this General Plan requires that – for projects proposed on parcels that are over 5,000 square feet in size – residential densities be calculated on a parcel-specific basis. For example, a one -acre parcel located within an area designated Medium – Low Density, where the density range is between 14.6 and 2035 units per acre, could potentially have up to 2035 units. Neither adjacent public rights-of-way nor adjacent properties are included in net lot area. The number of permissible units on lots less than 5,000 square feet in size would be as prescribed by the Zoning Ordinance (one housing unit on lots zoned R- 1 Single Family and two housing units, subject to use permit approval, on lots zoned R-1A or R2).

Residential — Open Space (R-OS). This designation is applied to those areas where the majority of the site should remain in open space due to site constraints or a high degree of environmental resource value. The designation allows for very low residential densities as long as the siting of the house respects site characteristics. This designation allows up to two dwelling units per gross acre.

Residential — Low Density (R-LD). This land use designation applies generally to those areas which were subdivided after January 1949, which have single family residences located on parcels of 3,000 square feet or greater. These areas are located predominantly in the portion of Daly City w hich is located west of Interstate 280, with the exception of the Southern Hills neighborhood located east of Interstate 280. This is the predominant residential land use category in Daly City. This designation allows between 2 and 14.5 dwelling units per gross acre, except in the BART Station Specific Plan Area, where density allowances are identified within the Specific Plan.

Residential — Medium Low Density (R- MLD). This land use designation applies to those areas which were subdivided prior to 1949 and typically have zero lot line single-family residences located on 2,500 square foot parcels. These areas are located predominantly in the older portions of Daly City wh ich are located east of Interstate 280. This designation allows between 14.6 and 2035 dwelling units per gross acre.

Residential — Medium Density (R-MD). This land use designation applies to those areas that allow two dwelling units per 2,500 -3,000 square foot parcel. These areas are primarily dis -persed throughout the older portions of Daly City, and have generally correspond ed to areas developed with duplexes and some multi-family areas where there are small multi-unit buildings located on large lots. This designation allows between 20.1 and 35.1 and 60 dwelling units per gross acre, except in the BART Station Specific Plan Area, where density allowances are identified within the Specific Plan.

Residential — High Density (R-HD). This designation applies primarily to multi-family residential structures whereand allows residential density is between 35.1 60.1 and 50120 dwelling units per gross acre, such

as is characteristic of the existing apartments that are in close proximity to the Westlake and Serramonte shopping centers, except in the BART Station Specific Plan Area, where density allowances are identified within the Specific Plan.

Residential — Very High Density (R-VHD). This designation applies to very dense multi-family residential development where allowable density would exceeds 50 120.1 dwelling units per acre. These developments are typically characterized by the large number of units constructed with little or no private or public open space.
