Section A. SHORT SURVEY (3-5 minutes) - NATURE OF "HOUSING DENSITY" REQUIREMENT & OUR

TOWN'S PROGRESS
BACK STORY: Our Hillsborough community of 4,000+ homes is mandated to add an additional 554 “housing units” during the 8 year period 2023-2031 (average of 69 units per year) ... whether they be ADUs (accessory dwelling units/granny flats, in-law apartments), duplexes, lot splits (take one lot, break into two lots, build duplexes on each new lot), multi-story apartment buildings or simply more single family homes on much smaller lots. This is required by our California state government (SB 8/9/10 effective 1-Jan-2022) and is related to our official RHNA (Regional Housing Needs Allocation) obligations to increase the number of housing units available across all income levels. A portion of these units MUST be designated LOW-INCOME HOUSING to encourage housing equity for underserved populations of San Mateo County.

LEGEND: ADU = accessory dwelling unit; H = Hillsborough; HCD = California Department of Housing & Community Development; HEAC = Housing Element Advisory Committee; Housing Element = component of Hillsborough's general plan; RD-1, -2 & -3 = residential districts within town of Hillsborough; RHNA = Regional Housing Needs Allocation plan (RHNA plan); SB-9 = State Bill 9 allows homeowners in most areas to streamline housing permitting & to divide their property into two lots; SB-10 = State Bill 10 makes it easier for cities to zone for smaller, lower-cost housing developments of up to 10 units

Subject: Comments for Council Study Session on Housing Plan Date: Monday, September 12, 2022 1:55:41 PM
Importance: High
Dear Council Members:

I oppose Hillsborough's proposed Housing Element plan and urge Hillsborough City Council to reject it because.

1. It unnecessarily rezones ("up-zones") the entire City. That would vastly shrink the minimum property footprint for the 99% of the parcels that are for single family homes, such as the provision to reduce the minimum home size to 800 square feet. It is a “mini-mall’ type solution for Hillsborough. Forcing this through would renege on the 70-year compact on which we bought our homes that the minimum lot size is ½ acre and the minimum home size is 2,500 square feet. This rezoning would make Hillsborough resemble Millbrae, tanking our property values by 20%, according to the top realtors in town. On average, that is $1 million per home. The alternative plan highlights that other viable options are preferable which will preserve our bucolic character, charm, and property values.

2. It will cause dramatic change to the residential character and 10%-25% increase in school enrollments (and in following, class sizes) which will destroy major reasons why people want to live here

3. It Opens a slippery slope making future "up-zoning" easy.

4. Erodes our property rights, including a goal to prevent owners of smaller homes from upgrading their properties

5. It imposes burdens on all residents by underestimating the number of ADUs likely to be built while overestimating the "buffer" units needed.

The town admitted in the last council meeting its
estimates of units generated by its plan are “excessively conservative.” Adding a 20% buffer to that is a buffer on top of a buffer. HDD, not “the law,” dropped a footnote to its RHNA letter with a “helpful hint” of using a 15-30% buffer. The law only requires that the plan is designed to generate the required units – which in Hillsborough’s case is 554. The Town can provide a plan for the required units. If for any reason HCD suggests changes, the law provides cities 120 days past the January 31, 2023 deadline as a grace period.

6. It omits large town-owned parcels
Instead, I support the alternative Smart Housing for Hillsborough plan because it will meet all requirements of our RHNA allocation while preserving the Town's special character. SHFH will …

1. Prevent unnecessary "up-zoning." It will apply zoning changes only if absolutely necessary and only for affected parcels
-1540-

2. Accelerate the creation rate for ADUs and JADUs which gives residents greater control while taking advantage of a rising trend in Hillsborough

3. Employ vacant lots, including town-owned properties

4. Protects owners of older and smaller homes

5. Adds housing in a safer way
The town should focus on generating new units from town owned property if the SHFH is insufficient. Re-developing the large town-owned properties donated to the city is viable - it would be consistent with the idea of the donation of the properties to preserve the bucolic character of Hillsborough and Hillsborough could resort to eminent domain to re-develop a portion.

The Town should address the following open questions:

As to the Town’s plan to develop private parcels, has the Town talked to the owners to see if they are willing to develop the property?
What did Hillsborough do to shape the methodology for allocation? The methodology gives no consideration or accommodation for high cost of real estate, or residential only, or vacancy rates, or impact on property values. This is a state mandate with no funding forced on the property owners to pay in the form of diminished property value and increased property tax and service rates to subsidize housing for others. Unfunded state mandate.

What did Hillsborough do over the last 8 years to increase housing stock other than ADUs? What did Hillsborough do to lobby the RHNA allocation methodology rules so that it did not discriminate against and adversely impact residential only cities? Cities with very high real property costs? Cities with very low levels of vacant lots? Cities with very low level of jobs in the city (as opposed the region)?
Did Hillsborough work with other similar cities? Work with the League of Cities? Work with groups dedicated to preserving local control?
What did Hillsborough do to lobby ABAG/HCD to decrease H’s allocation? What did Hillsborough do to negotiate with other surrounding cities/counties to solve on a subregional basis? What solutions have council members deliberated upon and recommended? Where is Council member Krolik’s plan - she is the council liaison overseeing building and planning. Where is the Hillsborough plan for smart growth? What plan did they develop over the last 8 years in anticipation of the 2023 cycle?
What is written analysis of the proposed plan by Building and Planning? ADRB? Hillsborough Beautification Committee? Wireless Communications Advisory Committee? -1541-
What is the analysis and recommendation of Councilmembers Krolik and Cole who oversee the committee process?
Why is the report outsourced to a consulting firm from Chicago? Why is the draft plan so long and stacked with additional policy statements and ancillary policies like outlawing tear downs? Where is the cost estimate of this plan? On the Town? And how it will affect the Town’s resort to tax and rate increases to offset their cost? To the property owners in terms of property value loss and rate/tax increases?
Where is the analysis of the cost to city departments to accommodate the 17% increase in housing units beyond the full capacity we have now? Police. Fire. Water. Electricity. Roads. Traffic. Building and Planning.

Where is the Town’s written analysis comparing the approaches from other residential only cities across California? Southern California is one year ahead in this process. Where is the report on lessons learned? Best practices?
Please enter this comment into the public record.

Respectfully submitted,
Patrick Shannon

Mayor Royse, Deputy Mayor Krolik, Councilors Cole, May and Chuang, City Clerk Natusch, and City Attorney Diaz:

I appreciate all your efforts to serve the public in Hillsboro, my neighbors and I are opposed to this plan for the following reasons:
1) Hillsborough has always been a high‐quality, high‐priced residential area. It's quiet, safe, and beautiful. Each inhabitant has his own private space, but it is also a 100‐year‐old city. There are fewer and fewer, and the public facilities in our city are old and lacking. For example, there is only a small community park in Hillsborough, which is far from my home and cannot meet the needs of residents to exercise and socialize. I suggest that the necessary public facilities in the city should be updated and increased, let Hillsborough continue to grow and make the city more liveable, adding a few hundred apartments is not the only solution to the housing shortage, if public facilities are not updated and increased, this can be a disaster for the city.
2) I am strongly against the redevelopment of our historic city hall site, especially the inclusion of high‐density buildings without a careful study of the impact on town infrastructure, schools, utilities, parking, etc. 3) If denser housing is added, such denser housing in our community will be more prone to fires and other emergencies.

Please do not change our partitions.
4) I object to the use of such a small number of attached dwelling units (ADU's and JADU's) in the plan. Other towns use more ADU/JADU in their plans, and so should we. The town should allocate at least 62 ADUs per year, which has been our plan for the past two years.
5) I object to set the target (Policy 4, Target 4.5) to “discourage redevelopment of existing smaller single‐family dwellings”. This goal and its implementation would violate homeowners' property rights and impose gratuitous penalties on homeowners. Remove this goal from our plan and do not implement it in the future. 6) I am against any new housing unit (except ADU) that does not have 1:1 parking. 7) I object to the lack of transparency and timing of this process. Records of many HEAC and other planning committee meetings were unavailable, planning department team members provided varying details at different times, and a "preliminary" plan for the "town hall campus" was only available three days before the public review. Nearly every resident was surprised by the process and lack of detail, but city planners classified the impact as "significant." 8) I support alternative approaches to our housing elements, using as many ADUs/JADUs as possible, reducing or eliminating "buffers", and utilizing open space to achieve our RHNA goals. I support an assessment of senior housing based on the 2014 Housing Elements and the 2022 HEAC Recommendations. I support approaches that reduce the lengthy permit application process and encourage the use of ADUs for rental purposes to ease urban housing pressures.

Many of my neighbors agree with the above. Please include this email in public records and consider it when you complete your application to the state on September 12 and beyond.

Hello,
We object strongly to rezoning the entire town of Hillsborough. We moved to this community because of the quality of life and less dense housing.

We strongly oppose reducing the minimum lot size to 1/3 of an acre. This changes the town and creates a denser living environment. We also see no reason to restrict renovations of older and smaller homes in Hillsborough. That is overly restrictive and not necessary since lots are ½ acre and up. Lastly, we disagree with reducing the frontage landscape from 50% to 30%. This also creates a denser feel to the town and makes it similar to neighboring towns. If we wanted to live in that type of environment, we wouldn’t have moved to Hillsborough.

In summary, we strongly disagree with rezoning the entire town of Hillsborough. Rezone where appropriate to create affordable housing.

Create housing in available spaces in Hillsborough. We moved here so we could live in a town that was less dense and had a high quality of living privacy, gardens, good schools, and less congestion.

Thank you,
The Atkesons

To Whom It May Concern -
I am deeply concerned about the negative repercussions of the draft Housing Element plan that is currently being considered by Hillsborough and to voice my opposition to the plan. I do not support it. We purchased our house in Hillsborough in 2016 expressly to be near dear friends, family, a safe and quiet neighborhood, and the extraordinary North school district. Now that we have two school-aged children, it is of utmost importance to us that we maintain the integrity of all the reasons for which we became a part of the Hillsborough community/purchased a home here.

While I wholeheartedly believe in providing accessible housing and the diversity that comes along with it, I believe the plan should be adjusted to put a far greater emphasis on ADUs as a solution to meet California’s requirements.

I prefer the Smart Housing For Hillsborough Plan and would urge the town of Hillsborough to adjust the current draft proposal to incorporate many elements of this alternative plan.

Finally, I’d like to say a big ‘THANK YOU!’ to all of you for representing our community. I realize it’s a volunteer position — and at times a thankless one! Thank you for taking the time to consider my feedback as a dedicated Hillsborough community member,
Yvette Lui

Subject: Opposed to Current Housing Element Plan
Date: Monday, September 12, 2022 12:26:03 PM
Mayor Royse, Vice Mayor Krolik and Council Members,
No doubt you're feeling as though you're in a tough spot: On the one hand there is a mandate from Sacramento that says Hillsborough, just like 481 other municipalities, must comply in an effort to create more affordable housing in the State. Regardless of your opinions about the law, you must fulfill your oaths of office to comply with the laws of the State. It's a solemn oath, to be sure.

Yet, you have also been elected to represent the people of Hillsborough. The Housing Element issue is, as Mayor Royse has said repeatedly, the "single most important issue facing HIllsborough in 50 years." The very reasons why people move here in the first place – and remain – are at serious risk.

Our schools are among the best in California year after year. Parents move here because they can feel confident that their kids will get a great education and not have to incur the costs of private school. The proposed Housing Element plan will increase student population by 100 - 200 students without a clear plan about how classroom size can remain intact.

Many people pay the steep price to live here because they know parcel sizes are larger, giving them not only beautiful views but also the privacy they seek. By undermining these two advantages Hillsborough enjoys over other towns, Council will be giving current residents stronger reasons to leave and incoming residents fewer reasons to want to move here.

Every town in California can claim it is unique. But not every town has a generations-old charter of single family homes, of no retail, a respite from the hubbub of city living or the buzz of downtown. The founders of Hillsborough had a good idea of what they wanted to do and our role is to preserve that spirit.

Hillsborough can and should submit a plan that complies with State mandate yet also aligns with our values. The current plan as proposed is NOT that plan. Here's why:

1. It relies on an unsubstantiated “requirement” of a 20% buffer in housing. The 20% was a suggestion but NOT a requirement. This 20% buffer can be 0 if a plan is well-thought out and reasonable

2. It rezones ("up-zones") the entire City.

3. It will dramatically change not only to the residential character of the town but will significantly increase school enrollments by 10%-25% (and in following, cause class sizes to bulge) which will destroy major reasons why people want to live here

4. It causes a slippery slope making future "up-zoning" easy.

5. It erodes the property rights of smaller homes by preventing them from upgrading / expanding their own homes

6. It imposes burdens on all residents by underestimating the number of ADUs likely to be built while overestimating the "buffer" units needed.
-1547-

7. It inexplicably omits large town-owned parcels
Instead, Council should consider a plan that significantly relies on ADUs and JADUs WITHOUT penalizing homeowners (like me and a vast majority of residents) who live in old ranch homes and might wish to increase the footprint of the home.

ADUs and JADUs are the absolute right path for a town like Hillsborough. It's a practice widely embraced by residents with minimal marketing, has proven effective in helping us meet our first RHNA allotment and, with the right tweaks to ordinances and fast-tracking of the right types of ADUs/JADUs, will only grow in popularity and practice. Hillsborough is so unlike most towns in California, it's foolish to expect we'd be able to submit a plan that matches what others are doing. We're already signaling our willingness to do our part and demonstrating a desire to help California meet its housing plans. Let's not upend what makes Hillsborough Hillsborough because we think that's what HCD is looking for. We know our town far better than they do. Let's submit the plan we KNOW will work for us. If they reject it, we can come back with a contingency plan. But let's not negotiate against ourselves.

Thank you for your continued service to Hillsborough.

Please include this comment in the public record.

Respectfully Submitted,
Larry Friedberg

3Q2022 HILLSBOROUGH HOUSING DENSITY SURVEY
Section A. SHORT SURVEY (3-5 minutes) - NATURE OF "HOUSING DENSITY" REQUIREMENT & OUR TOWN'S PROGRESS BACK STORY: Our Hillsborough community of 4,000+ homes is mandated to add an additional 554 “housing units” during the 8 year period 2023-2031 (average of 69 units per year) ... whether they be ADUs (accessory dwelling units/granny flats, in-law apartments), duplexes, lot splits (take one lot, break into two lots, build duplexes on each new lot), multi-story apartment buildings or simply more single family homes on much smaller lots. This is required by our California state government (SB 8/9/10 effective 1-Jan-2022) and is related to our official RHNA (Regional Housing Needs Allocation) obligations to increase the number of housing units available across all income levels. A portion of these units MUST be designated LOW-INCOME HOUSING to encourage housing equity for underserved populations of San Mateo County.

3Q2022 HILLSBOROUGH HOUSING DENSITY SURVEY
Section A. SHORT SURVEY (3-5 minutes) - NATURE OF "HOUSING DENSITY" REQUIREMENT & OUR TOWN'S PROGRESS BACK STORY: Our Hillsborough community of 4,000+ homes is mandated to add an additional 554 “housing units” during the 8 year period 2023-2031 (average of 69 units per year) ... whether they be ADUs (accessory dwelling units/granny flats, in-law apartments), duplexes, lot splits (take one lot, break into two lots, build duplexes on each new lot), multi-story apartment buildings or simply more single family homes on much smaller lots. This is required by our California state government (SB 8/9/10 effective 1-Jan-2022) and is related to our official RHNA (Regional Housing Needs Allocation) obligations to increase the number of housing units available across all income levels. A portion of these units MUST be designated LOW-INCOME HOUSING to encourage housing equity for underserved populations of San Mateo County.

Section A. SHORT SURVEY (3-5 minutes) - NATURE OF "HOUSING DENSITY" REQUIREMENT & OUR TOWN'S PROGRESS BACK STORY: Our Hillsborough community of 4,000+ homes is mandated to add an additional 554 “housing units” during the 8 year period 2023-2031 (average of 69 units per year) ... whether they be ADUs (accessory dwelling units/granny flats, in-law apartments), duplexes, lot splits (take one lot, break into two lots, build duplexes on each new lot), multi-story apartment buildings or simply more single family homes on much smaller lots. This is required by our California state government (SB 8/9/10 effective 1-Jan-2022) and is related to our official RHNA (Regional Housing Needs Allocation) obligations to increase the number of housing units available across all income levels.

3Q2022 HILLSBOROUGH HOUSING DENSITY SURVEY
Section A. SHORT SURVEY (3-5 minutes) - NATURE OF "HOUSING DENSITY" REQUIREMENT & OUR TOWN'S PROGRESS BACK STORY: Our Hillsborough community of 4,000+ homes is mandated to add an additional 554 “housing units” during the 8 year period 2023-2031 (average of 69 units per year) ... whether they be ADUs (accessory dwelling units/granny flats, in-law apartments), duplexes, lot splits (take one lot, break into two lots, build duplexes on each new lot), multi-story apartment buildings or simply more single family homes on much smaller lots. This is required by our California state government (SB 8/9/10 effective 1-Jan-2022) and is related to our official RHNA (Regional Housing Needs Allocation) obligations to increase the number of housing units available across all income levels. A portion of these units MUST be designated LOW-INCOME HOUSING to encourage housing equity for underserved populations of San Mateo County.

3Q2022 HILLSBOROUGH HOUSING DENSITY SURVEY
Section A. SHORT SURVEY (3-5 minutes) - NATURE OF "HOUSING DENSITY" REQUIREMENT & OUR TOWN'S PROGRESS BACK STORY: Our Hillsborough community of 4,000+ homes is mandated to add an additional 554 “housing units” during the 8 year period 2023-2031 (average of 69 units per year) ... whether they be ADUs (accessory dwelling units/granny flats, in-law apartments), duplexes, lot splits (take one lot, break into two lots, build duplexes on each new lot), multi-story apartment buildings or simply more single family homes on much smaller lots. This is required by our California state government (SB 8/9/10 effective 1-Jan-2022) and is related to our official RHNA (Regional Housing Needs Allocation) obligations to increase the number of housing units available across all income levels.

3Q2022 HILLSBOROUGH HOUSING DENSITY SURVEY
Section A. SHORT SURVEY (3-5 minutes) - NATURE OF "HOUSING DENSITY" REQUIREMENT & OUR TOWN'S PROGRESS BACK STORY: Our Hillsborough community of 4,000+ homes is mandated to add an additional 554 “housing units” during the 8 year period 2023-2031 (average of 69 units per year) ... whether they be ADUs (accessory dwelling units/granny flats, in-law apartments), duplexes, lot splits (take one lot, break into two lots, build duplexes on each new lot), multi-story apartment buildings or simply more single family homes on much smaller lots. This is required by our California state government (SB 8/9/10 effective 1-Jan-2022) and is related to our official RHNA (Regional Housing Needs Allocation) obligations to increase the number of housing units available across all income levels. A portion of these units MUST be designated LOW-INCOME HOUSING to encourage housing equity for underserved populations of San Mateo County.
