Through Program 16, Fair Housing Referral and Mediation, the City will continue to make resources available on its website and provide new content as it is available.

Additionally, through Programs in the Housing Element the City will actively affirmatively further fair housing during the planning period. Program 5, Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice, the City will maintain an adopted Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice and create fair housing outreach materials and informational resources to post online. Through Program 6, Annual Progress Reports, the City will hold annual housing forums to bring the community together with decision makers, the development community, and other stakeholders to discuss the progress towards meeting the goals and objectives of the Housing Element and to discuss solutions for and awareness of fair housing in the City. Program 16, Fair Housing Referral and Mediation, The City will update and maintain their website with fair housing resources and information and provide referrals and mediation. Through Program 1, Accessibility, the City will promote increased accessibility above and beyond those requirements of the Federal and State Fair Housing Acts through incentives in exchange for increased accessibility and informational resources such as home retrofit guides and guidance on universal design. Program 27, Place-Based Strategies, commits the City to identify areas of opportunity for focused planning efforts through a methodology that prioritizes fair housing. Program 28, Reasonable Accommodation Procedures, will create a process by which a request for a deviation may be approved for persons with disabilities.

Further, the City will administer all programs and activities related to housing and community development in a manner to Affirmatively Further Fair Housing. As detailed in Program 9, Density Bonus the City will update their Density Bonus ordinance consistent with State law Program 24, No Net Loss will ensure that the City has adequate capacity to accommodate the RHNA throughout the 2021-2029 6th Cycle planning period (6th Cycle). Further, Programs 18, 19, and 21, demonstrates the City’s commitment to affordable housing and ensuring housing within the City is available for all income levels, prioritizing the needs of those with special needs and extremely low-income households. Through Program 18, the City will collaborate with the Riverside Housing Authority and assist in monitoring deed- restricted units by tracking existing and new affordable covenants in the City. Program 19, Housing Rehabilitation, the City will identify opportunities to increase funding for housing rehabilitation; and Program 21, the City will explore the establishment of a local housing trust fund dedicated to the creation, rehabilitation and preservation of affordable housing, transitional housing and emergency shelters; which includes a feasibility analysis.

Segregation and Integration
Patterns of segregation have been commonly linked to poorer life outcomes in income, housing equity, educational attainment, and life expectancy, according to research from the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley).1 Affirmatively furthering fair housing involves overcoming patterns of segregation to foster inclusive communities.

AGENDA ITEM #10.1
Revised Resolution No. 10254 re-approving the revised version of Housing... Page 918 of 1245 Page | 8 Appendix D: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Analysis Race and Ethnicity
The population within the City is primarily White or Hispanic. Those who identify as Hispanic can be of any race. The City’s Hispanic population increased by 11.4 percent between 2010 and 2019 and made up the largest segment of the 2019 population (64.2 percent). The City’s White population increased by 28.5 percent during the same period and represented 29.5 percent of the population in 2019.

Generally, the average racial composition and number of people of different races or ethnicities in neighborhoods differs depending on location, which can act as a measure of segregation by neighborhood. To further examine this, this assessment relies on a calculation of the average racial composition of neighborhoods experienced by members of each racial group. These are sometimes referred to as “exposure indices.” The exposure index demonstrates the exposure a given race group experiences with members of their own and each other race (as a percentage of 100) in an average neighborhood of the city (or metropolitan area) being examined.

In the City, Hispanic residents are exposed to 79.1 percent Hispanic residents and 16.1 percent White residents. On the other hand, White residents are exposed to 62.2 percent Hispanic residents and 32 percent White residents.2 The exposure for White residents to other ethnic/racial groups is somewhat consistent with the ethnic/racial composition of the City; however, Hispanic residents have a lower percentage of exposure to White residents and higher percentage of exposure to Hispanic residents than the ethnic/racial composition of the City.

Another measure of segregation between two groups is the dissimilarity index. The dissimilarity index measures the degree to which two specific groups are distributed across a geographic area. The dissimilarity index varies between 0 and 100, and measures the percentage of one group that would have to move across neighborhoods to be distributed the same way as the second group. A dissimilarity index of 0 indicates conditions of total integration under which both groups are distributed in the same proportions across all neighborhoods. A dissimilarity index of 100 indicates conditions of total segregation such that the members of one group are located in completely different neighborhoods than the second group.

Generally, the City is considered to be moderately segregated. Indio received an index rating of 41.1 when comparing White and Hispanic populations, indicating that roughly 41.1 percent of Hispanic households would need to move across neighborhoods to be distributed the same way as White households in the City. Because the other ethnic/racial groups within the City have a small population percentage, the dissimilarity index may be high even if the group is evenly distributed throughout the area.

City residents have been predominantly composed of two racial/ethnic groups: White residents and Hispanic residents, for which there can be overlap. From 1990 to 2000, the Hispanic population remained the majority ethnic group in the City, with nearly 75 percent of the population. In 2010, the Hispanic population slightly dropped to 68 percent, primarily due to increasing White and Asian populations. The African American/Black population remained consistent, at an average of 2 percent of the population. As

The White population in Indio is concentrated on the City’s southern and western boundaries.

Figure 1. Racial Demographics Map
As compared to the broader region, the City is host to proportionally high percentage of non-White residents. As shown in Figure 1A, Regional Racial Demographics Map, similar percentages follow State Route (SR) 111 to the south and east of the City. To the north and west, Census block groups are home to a greater percentage of White populations. Specifically, Census block groups northwest of the City in cities such as Rancho Mirage, La Quinta and Palm Desert have proportionally lower percent of non-White residents. Census block groups north of the City, which include Joshua Tree National Park, have slightly lower percentages of total non-White population.

Household Income
Household income is the most important factor determining a household’s ability to balance housing costs with other basic life necessities, although economic factors that affect a household’s housing choice are not a fair housing issue per se. Fair housing issues occur when relationships among household income, source of income, household type, household race/ethnicity, and other factors create misconceptions, biases, and differential treatments. Discriminatory housing practices of the past, such as redlining, restrictive zoning, urban renewal, and steering, although illegal today, have led to a disproportionate gap in household wealth based on race and ethnicity. Within the SCAG region, African American households make up the largest proportion of extremely low-income households. Because homeownership paired with appreciation of home values has long been a pathway to wealth accumulation, and homeownership for many years was primarily afforded to White households, gaps in household income persist. Household income in the City is shown in Figure 2, Median Income; Figure 3, Poverty Status; and Figure 4, Low to Moderate Income. Figure 2 shows that the lowest median income in the City is found in one concentration: between Indio Boulevard and Interstate 10. That same area has more than 40 percent of residents in poverty. Areas south of this concentration of poverty have the next lowest incomes and percentages of people in poverty, as shown in Figures 3 and 4.

The region experiences median income and poverty in a similar fashion (See Figure 2A, 3A, 4A); where the median income trends low, so does the rate of poverty. Additionally, when comparing 2015-2019 ACS data to 2010-2014 data, the percentage of the population living in poverty has spread more evenly across the region with slightly less intensity than in previous years. Furthermore, the regional median income and poverty figures align with racial demographics map suggesting that block groups with a greater percentage of non-White populations generally experience higher rates of poverty and lower median incomes. Cities with a higher median income include La Quinta to the southwest and pockets of block groups with a median income greater than $125,000 to the northwest towards Palm Springs. Indian Wells to the west has varying income levels with block groups indicating less than $125,000 and less than

AGENDA ITEM #10.1
Revised Resolution No. 10254 re-approving the revised version of Housing... Page 921 of 1245 Page | 11 Appendix D: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Analysis $87,100. Block groups along the northern boundary of Palm Desert also indicate pockets of median income greater than $125,000 which also abut block groups with a median income of less than $55,000.

At a regional level, the central portions of the City, and other surrounding cities such as Mecca and Desert Hot Springs have higher poverty rates with Census tracts indicating 20 percent to 30 percent, 30 percent to 40 percent, and greater than 40 percent of the population that is below the poverty level, as shown in Figure 3A. The percent of the low to moderate income population is lower to the west and northwest of the City with higher concentrations to the east and southeast as shown in Figure 4A.

Revised Resolution No. 10254 re-approving the revised version of Housing... Page 925 of 1245 Page | 15 Appendix D: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Analysis Familial Status
Family structure is something that impacts the care of children, type of housing needed, financial needs, and more. Single-parent households require more time to take care of children than married or cohabitating couples, which can impact the jobs available to parents, income levels, and the amount of support afforded to children. Family structure is something that has evolved over time in the United States, with fewer couples marrying, and cohabitation occurring more often. Families with children, especially those who are renters, may face discrimination or differential treatment in the housing market. For example, some landlords may charge larger households a higher rent or security deposit.

Figure 5, Children in Single-Mother-Headed Households, shows that there is a high proportion of children in single-mother-led households in northwestern Indio. Figure 6, Adults Living Alone, shows that there are not many adults in the City who live alone, with slightly higher rates of adults living alone in southern Indio. Figure 7, Adults Living with a Spouse, shows the lowest rates of adults living with a spouse was in central Indio. The highest rates of adults living with a spouse are in northern Indio. This area of higher rates of adults living with spouses includes the same Census tract that has the highest percent of children in single-mother households. Figure 8, Children in Married-Couple Households, shows that this Census tract has a very low rate of children in married-couple families, meaning that households with children here are likely in cohabitating situations. Figure 8 demonstrates the proportion of children in married- couple households. The figures below collectively demonstrate the strong presence of families with children in the City, emphasizing the need for access to educational and recreational opportunities.

From a regional perspective (Figure 5A, 6A, 7A, 8A), there does not appear to be many geospatial trends as far as household and family make-up. The strongest trend throughout the region is in regard to households with children of married couples which exist at higher rates directly west of the City with tracts indicating greater than 80 percent of households. Regional trends are similar to those in the City.

As shown in Figure 5A, Children in Single-Mother-Headed Households Throughout the Region, the majority of tracts indicate less than 20 percent of children in female headed households. Tracts within the City of Palm Desert, Rancho Mirage and Palm Springs indicate a slightly higher percentage of children in female headed households of about 20 percent to 40 percent. Figure 6A, Adults Living Alone Throughout the Region, similar to City trends, the tracts within the region indicate there is a low percentage of the population 18 years and over living alone with most tracts at less than 20 percent. In Figure 7A, Adults Living with a Spouse Throughout the Region, the map indicates a high percentage of the population 18 years and over living with a spouse. The majority of Census tracts indicate 40 percent to 60 percent with the higher percentages at 60 percent or greater in the City and surrounding cities such as La Quinta, Indian Wells, and Rancho Mirage. In Figure 8A, Children in Married-Couple Households Throughout the Region, the map indicates the majority of tracts within the region are made up of children in married couple households. The majority of tracts range from 60 percent to 80 percent of households, with the highest percentages of households (greater than 80 percent) to the north and southwest of the City including the cities of La Quinta, and Rancho Mirage.

Revised Resolution No. 10254 re-approving the revised version of Housing... Page 930 of 1245 Page | 20 Appendix D: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Analysis Persons with Disabilities
Persons with disabilities can often experience discrimination in housing, or difficulties navigating certain dwelling units or areas that may offer few accommodations to meet the needs of those with disabilities.

Fair housing choice for persons with disabilities can be compromised based on the nature of a person’s disability. Persons with physical disabilities may face discrimination in the housing market because of the need for wheelchairs, home modifications needed to improve accessibility, or other forms of physical accommodations that may be needed. A major barrier to housing for people with mental disabilities is opposition based on the stigma of mental disabilities. Landlords may refuse to rent to tenants who have a history of mental illness. Further, neighbors may object when a house becomes a group home for persons with mental disabilities.

According to population disability data available through the ACS (2015–2019), the percent of the population in Indio with disabilities is relatively evenly spread throughout Indio with Census tracts ranging from 10 percent to 20 percent to less than 10 percent. These concentrations have shifted slightly in Indio since (2010-2014) ACS data, where the highest concentration of those with a disability have moved to the City’s core over time. The highest concentration of 20 percent to 30 percent of residents with disabilities is found in a Census tract in central Indio, as seen in Figure 9, Persons with Disabilities.

Figure 9A, Persons with Disabilities Throughout the Region, represents the percent of the population which has a disability in Census tracts throughout the region. The City has relatively similar rates as compared to the nearby areas such as the City of La Quinta, Coachella, and Palm Desert. However, Rancho Mirage, Cathedral City and other Census tracts to the northwest and south have a greater percentage of people with a disability; the tract to the south covers large portion as it includes Anza- Borrego Desert State Park. There is some correlation with higher poverty rates and higher disability rates in the southern portions of the region, although there is an inverse relationship between poverty status and disability in many tracts to the west. There is also some overlap in higher concentrations of white populations and higher concentrations of those with disabilities in some tracts in the region to the west of the City. Generally, there are no apparent correlations with other population demographics.

Revised Resolution No. 10254 re-approving the revised version of Housing... Page 932 of 1245 Page | 22 Appendix D: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Analysis Housing Tenure
Housing tenure can be considered when analyzing housing issues because renters often have little control over needed modifications to their housing compared to owners. Additionally, renters are more vulnerable to changes in the local market that can influence the cost of housing. Within Indio there is a higher concentration of owner-occupied homes in the northern and western areas of the City. In comparison, there is a lower percentage of owner-occupied housing units in central core and southeast portions of the City. Figure 10, Percent Owner-Occupied Housing, illustrates the percentage of owner- occupied housing units within the City by Census tracts.

Figure 10A depicts the region’s housing characteristics for owner-occupied housing units. As seen on the map, surrounding cities have similar Census tracts with a range of percent of owner-occupied housing units. The majority of tracts indicate 75.1 percent to 100 percent owner-occupied housing units, followed by 53.2 percent to 75.1 percent range, and some tracts throughout the region indicate 28.4 percent to

53.2 percent. For example, Indian Wells to the west of the City has a mix of Census tracts indicating a majority of tracts within the 53.2 percent owner-occupied range or greater. This map indicates many households are owner-occupied.

The location of renter-occupied housing is primarily located within the core of the City, with the highest percentage of renters (>73 percent) located in Census Tract 45502.

Figure 11A depicts the region’s housing characteristics for percent renter-occupied households. Census tracts with lower owner-occupied units shown on Figure 10A inversely indicate higher percentages of renter-occupied units. Census tracts to the west of the City have higher percentages of renter-occupied households, particularly in the City of Palm Desert, Cathedral City, and Palm Springs with Census tracts of 80 percent to 90 percent renter-occupied.

Figure 11A. Percent Renter-Occupied Housing Throughout the Region Racially and Ethnically Concentrated Areas of Poverty
A Census tract is designated a Racially or ethnically concentrated area of poverty (R/ECAP) if two conditions are satisfied: first, the non-White population, whether Hispanic or non-Hispanic, must account for at least 50 percent of the Census tract population. Second, the poverty rate in that Census tract must exceed a certain threshold. That threshold is set at either 40 percent or three times the overall poverty rate, whichever is lower. R/ECAPs can indicate areas where there is historic discrimination, R/ECAPs also often offer fewer economic opportunities. Figure 12, R/ECAP and Segregation and Poverty, shows that there are two R/ECAPs in eastern Indio, and these are also near areas of high segregation and poverty identified by the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee. These R/ECAPs contain 9.6 percent of Indio’s population, which amounts to 8,575 people. The two R/ECAP Census tracts are both over 85 percent Hispanic. Of the two R/ECAP Census tracts, Tract 453.03 to the northeast had higher rates of poverty, with 42.3 percent of residents below the poverty level in 2019, and Tract 455.01 had lower rates of poverty, with 13 percent of residents below the poverty level. In these R/ECAP Census tracts, 53.8 percent of households are renters. According to 2019 ACS Census data, renters in the City make up 29.4 percent of households. Approximately 40 percent of low-income renters in the R/ECAPs are considered to be severely cost burdened by their housing, meaning they spend more than 50 percent of their income on housing (Public Health Alliance of Southern California 2021).

However, there are many R/ECAPs following SR 86 south through Riverside County. These cities include Mecca, which is also an area identified in Figure 3A as having a high population with poverty status.

In contrast to R/ECAPs, areas of affluence are those areas with higher incomes and concentrations of White residents. These are areas where 80 percent or more of the population is White, and the median household income is $125,000 or more. As shown above in Figure 2, there are no Census tracts in Indio with median incomes higher than $125,000. Areas that are majority White and non-Hispanic residents are found in western and southern Indio. In the region there are areas of affluence in the City of La Quinta and Palm Desert as they have block groups where the percentage of the White population is 80 percent or greater and a median income of greater than $125,000 overlap (see Figure 1A and 2A). The AFFH Data Viewer tool does not currently provide a map for areas of affluence, therefore no figure is provided.

Patterns Over Time
Historically in the United States, housing discrimination (both explicit and covert) has occurred through land use policy and zoning, mortgage lending practices, landlord decisions about rental applications, and patterns of public and private investment and disinvestment. These trends have resulted in residential segregation based on race, ethnicity, income, disability, and other characteristics, and have limited housing choices and access to opportunities for many Americans, especially for communities of color.

Mortgage Loan Access
A key aspect of fair housing choice is equal access to credit for the purchase or improvement of a home.

Lending policies and requirements related to credit history, current credit rating, employment history, and the general character of applicants permit lenders to use a great deal of discretion. This discretionary process allows lenders (underwriters) to deny loans even though a prospective borrower would have been considered an acceptable risk, and the loan approved.

Discriminatory practices in home mortgage lending have evolved in the past five to six decades. In the 1940s and 1950s, racial discrimination in mortgage lending was easy to spot. From government- sponsored racial covenants to the redlining practices of private mortgage lenders and financial institutions, ethnic minorities were denied access to home mortgages in ways that severely limited their ability to purchase a home. During the recent rise of the subprime loan market,4 discriminatory lending practices became more subtle. By employing high-pressure sales practices and deceptive tactics, some mortgage brokers pushed minority borrowers into high-cost subprime mortgages that were not well- suited to their needs, and many led to displacement through foreclosure.

4.4.1.1 Conventional and Government-Backed Financing
According to the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council data for 2016, approximately 48,209 households (for a total of $13,388,132) applied for conventional loans in the Metropolitan Statistical Area of Riverside–San Bernardino–Ontario. Among all applications received that year, 25,573 loans were originated and 3,469 where denied. White people participated at the highest level, submitting 27,278

Hispanic people, the second highest participants, provided 12,921 loan applications. Even though Hispanic people make up 50 percent of the population within the Metropolitan Statistical Area, they only accounted for 27 percent of all loan applications submitted. African Americans submitted 296 applications in 2016, which was the lowest participation rate among the four largest populations. There was no significant variance in rate of denial among racial/ethnic groups.

According to the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council data, approximately 35,874 households (for a total of $9,823,136,000) applied for government-backed loans in the Metropolitan Statistical Area of Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario. Among all applications received in 2016, the number of loans originated was 25,573, and the percentage of applications denied was approximately 10 percent. When broken down by race and ethnicity, participation in the market varied. White people had the highest participation levels, similar to conventional loans, submitting 27,278 government-backed loan applications, amounting to $7,251,363,000. African American/Black people were the lowest participants in government-backed loans, with 296 applications submitted in 2016, for a total amounting to $80,132,000. With all racial/ethnic group denial rates being within 4 percent of each other, as well as in the Metropolitan Statistical Area as a whole, there was no apparent significant variance in rate of denial.

4.4.1.2 Subprime Lending
According to the Federal Reserve, “prime” mortgages are offered to persons with excellent credit, and employment history and income adequate to support the loan amount. “Subprime” loans are loans to borrowers who have less-than-perfect credit history, poor employment history, or other factors such as limited income. Subprime lenders generally have interest rates that are higher than those in the prime market, and often lack the regulatory oversight required for prime lenders because they are not owned by regulated financial institutions. Although subprime lending cannot in and of itself be equated with predatory lending, studies have shown a high incidence of predatory lending in the subprime market.

Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council data does not provide information on which loans were subprime loans. As such, analysis on this topic is difficult. However, a high approval rate of any lending institution in the City could indicate a concern related to an overly aggressive lending practice.

Public Participation
The City has seen public participation increase over the last 8 years, resulting in a higher level of involvement from all segments of the community. During this timeframe, the City updated its General Plan and created a new Specific Plan for its downtown. Both of these efforts occurred over an approximately 5-year period and involved significant public outreach efforts.

In addition, the City received a grant in late 2018 to prepare a Transformative Climate Communities Plan that was adopted by the City Council in early 2021 and focuses on three Census tracts that were deemed moderately to highly disadvantaged per a CalEnviroScreen analysis. Through the Transformative Climate Communities Plan planning process, approximately 685 participants engaged in a virtual meeting that was held in English and approximately 383 participants engaged in a virtual meeting that was held in Spanish. These significant planning efforts generated interest and participation among City residents.

Further, 683 participants engaged in a public meeting via Facebook Live, with nine people providing comments.

Over recent years, the City has made substantive efforts to increase access to housing and neighborhood improvements for low- and moderate-income residents through neighborhood investment, which includes development of housing and neighborhood revitalization programs, and completion of infrastructure enhancements.

4.4.3.1 New First-Time Homebuyers Program for Lower-Income Indio Homebuyers In August 2021, the Riverside County Department of Housing, Homelessness Prevention, and Workforce Solutions began accepting First Time Home Buyer (FTHB) Program applications from qualified City homebuyers. The FTHB Program provides down payment and homebuyer loan assistance of up to 20 percent of the purchase prices of a home, with an assistance cap of $75,000. To qualify, homebuyers must not earn more than the specified income limit, the home must be located in the City, and the homebuyer must occupy the home as their primary residence. The FTHB Program is funded by a grant from the State’s Permanent Local Housing Allocation Program, of which the City of Indio and 19 other cities within Riverside County jointly applied for and participate in.5 The City Council approved this partnership with the County of Riverside on June 17, 2020. To participate, interested homebuyers need to contact and work directly with a Permanent Local Housing Allocation FTHB Program qualified lender, as approved by the County of Riverside.

4.4.3.2 Minor Home Repair Program Available to Low-/Moderate-Income Homeowners During fiscal year 2020/2021, the City implemented a home repair program that provided grants of up to $10,000 to eligible low- and moderate-income homeowners of owner-occupied homes to complete urgently needed home habitability and safety/accessibility repairs that would keep households, families, and individuals in their homes. The eligible repairs and improvements were those that posed a hazard in the home and that, if left unrepaired, would continue to pose a health/safety hazards and/or would prevent the occupants from remaining in their homes. Improvements could include water heater and air conditioners replacement, roof and flooring repair, installation of shower grab bars, and installation of access wheelchair ramps. During the 2020/2021 fiscal year, the City awarded five grants for a total distribution of $50,000. The program was funded with the City’s allocation of Federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds. Due to the success of the program and the continued community need, the City Council approved continuation of the program for fiscal year 2021/2022 by allocating $200,000 in CDBG funds.

4.4.3.3 Curb Ramp Upgrades in Low/Moderate-Income Neighborhoods During fiscal year 2021/2022, the City allocated $360,395 to conduct Americans with Disabilities Act curb ramp upgrades to bring existing curb ramps into compliance within low-/moderate-income neighborhoods that are part of the City’s Pavement Management Zones Program. Because of funding limitations, the needed curb ramp improvements had not been completed by the City as part of the regular work associated with the Pavement Management Zones Program. The Public Works Department will now be able to complete the needed enhancements that will benefit the residents, especially people with disabilities in lower-income neighborhoods.

4.4.3.4 Street Light Improvement and LED Conversions Projects in Low-/Moderate-Income Neighborhoods
As a way to enhance public infrastructure in low-/moderate-income neighborhoods, the City approved the funding of two phases of streetlight pole and light head LED conversion projects within the CDBG- eligible area of the City using CDBG funds. As of August 2021, the City was completing the preliminary work needed to complete the bidding process and ultimately award a construction contract to compete the work during fiscal year 2021/2022. The project scope includes replacing dilapidated light poles that have reached the end of their useful life and upgrading all halogen light heads with LED light heads. This will serve to address the concerns expressed by residents in the area, which principally included concerns over safety due to the low ambient light emitted by the old halogen-style lamps. Other safety concerns included poles being unsafe. The first phase included improvements in the area known as the Kenner Street Area/Neighborhood (located north of Avenue 44, between Monroe Street and Jackson Street). The second phase included the remaining CDBG-eligible neighborhoods. The light replacement project complements the City’s current LED conversion strategy taking place as part of the City’s Pavement Management Zone Road Work that is taking place throughout the City and funded with City non-CDBG funds.

4.4.3.5 Neighborhood Cleanup Assistance Program as a Resident Resource in Low-/Moderate- Income Neighborhoods
Over the last few years, the City has funded a Neighborhood Cleanup Program that primarily served as a resource to local neighborhood/resident groups that want to organize and conduct specialized focused neighborhood cleanups but lack the resources and experience to do so. Staff from the Housing and Neighborhood Services Division within the Community Development Department were available to guide and support the cleanup efforts; however, a key to this program includes empowering neighborhood groups and residents to take on active participatory roles in coordinating and leading such events. Tools and supplies (such as trash bags and gloves) were provided through this program. The program also covered the dumpster delivery/removal costs. Staff coordinate the delivery and removal of dumpsters with the locally contracted trash hauler. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the program was underutilized in 2020. The City will monitor the appropriateness of continuing this community program.

4.4.3.6 Neighborhood Stabilization Program Homebuyer Program Through three rounds of funding received through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Neighborhood Stabilization Program, the City received over $12,000,000 to implement a first-time homebuyer program to address the foreclosure and housing crisis that was being faced a decade ago. The Neighborhood Stabilization Program has lasted through the years, but is reaching the close-out phase. To date, the City has purchased, rehabilitated, and resold more than 97 homes through this homebuyer program, which involved purchasing vacant foreclosed homes, rehabilitating them to move-in condition, and reselling them to qualifying lower- and moderate-income homebuyers. The City also implemented a home construction component in partnership with Habitat for Humanity of Coachella Valley to build five new single-family homes for very low-income families. The final two homes were recently completed and resold to qualified homebuyers in 2021. The City contributed a combined $550,000 in Neighborhood Stabilization Program and former Redevelopment Agency Housing funds to the Habitat for Humanity effort.

AGENDA ITEM #10.1
Revised Resolution No. 10254 re-approving the revised version of Housing... Page 941 of 1245 Page | 31 Appendix D: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Analysis Demographic Trends
The Housing Element Needs Assessment, provided in Appendix B, Community Profile, provides additional data and analysis of the demographic patterns within the City. The effects of the previously discussed historical patterns over time can be seen in the current demographic makeup of the City.

Disparities in Access to Opportunity
Lower-income households and racially segregated communities are disproportionately impacted by a combination of locational factors, such as proximity to landfills, freeways, industrial areas, and other toxins and pollutants. Recent studies have shown that development of affordable housing has been disproportionately distributed and concentrated in minority neighborhoods with poor environmental conditions and high poverty rates. This, thereby, concentrates poverty and creates racial segregation in low-opportunity and low-resource areas, and unduly affects low-income residents.

The City of Indio General Plan 2040 Health and Equity Element identifies a set of policies on how the City can plan and prioritize growth for future residents in a manner that prioritizes the well-being of residents through a physical, social, and economic lens. The City supports equitable development practices that are responsive to disadvantaged communities and that protect all members of a community from environmental harm and risk. The City’s goal of community-centered planning aims to elevate the values and priorities of historically underserved populations, including lower-income residents and people of color, in guiding community development.

Development of affordable housing in high-opportunity/high-resource areas provides lower income residents access to resources such as quality schools, employment, transportation, and environmentally healthy neighborhoods, and provides low poverty exposure. Research indicates that among various economic and social factors, being in proximity to certain amenities can result in positive critical life outcomes.6 There has been an increased focus in deconcentrating poverty and promoting affordable housing in high-opportunity areas. This trend is evident in the State’s allocation of Low-Income Housing Credit (LIHTC) dollars, the primary subsidy that is available for developing and preserving affordable housing. To allocate these credits, the California Housing Finance Agency develops a competitive scoring system. In recent years, the scoring system has been adjusted to promote investment in affordable housing in areas with access to opportunity in the context of other affordable needs. Several agencies, including the U.S Department of Housing and Urban Development and the HCD in coordination with the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (TCAC), have developed methodologies to assess and measure geographic access to opportunity (including education, transportation, and employment) in areas throughout California. The Opportunity Map created by TCAC and HCD (using data from 2020) is used to identify areas in the region whose characteristics are shown by research to support positive economic, educational, and health outcomes for low-income families, and particularly long-term outcomes for children. As such, this section reviews access to opportunity in relation to education, economic development, environment, transportation, and access to opportunities for persons with disabilities.

AGENDA ITEM #10.1
Revised Resolution No. 10254 re-approving the revised version of Housing... Page 942 of 1245 Page | 32 Appendix D: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Analysis High-resource areas are those areas, according to research, that offer lower-income households increased opportunities for economic advancement, higher educational attainment, and improved physical and mental health. The primary function of the TCAC is to oversee the Low-Income Housing Credit Program, which provides funding to developers of affordable rental housing. The Opportunity Map plays a critical role in shaping the future distribution of affordable housing in areas with the highest opportunity. The 2020 TCAC/HCD Opportunity Map identifies two high-resource areas within the City based on a composite score that is created from scoring access to opportunity in relation to education, economic development, and the environment. One area is in the southern portion of the City bounded by Avenue 48 to the north, Jackson Street to the east, Avenue 50 the south, and Hjorth Street to the west, and the other is in the northwest portion of the City (Figure 13, Opportunity Map).

Figure 13A shows there are many high opportunity areas directly adjacent to the City There are many Census tracts west of the City that fall within the highest resource rated areas particularly in the City of La Quinta, Indian Wells, Bermuda Dunes, and Palm Desert. Areas of Moderate- and Low-Resource include Coachella and Mecca to the southeast, scattered tracts in Cathedral City and Palm Springs tracts.

Revised Resolution No. 10254 re-approving the revised version of Housing... Page 944 of 1245 Page | 34 Appendix D: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Analysis Access to Education
The TCAC Opportunity Area Access to Education analysis considers math and reading proficiency standards, high school graduation rates, and student poverty rates. Figure 14, Opportunity for Education, shows the access to opportunity for education, which displays high levels of opportunity in northern Indio, and less positive outcomes (<0.25) in the southern and southeastern portions of Indio, as seen in yellow on the map. Nearly all of Indio, except for the southern tip of the City, is located within the Desert Sands Unified School District’s service area boundary. Southern Indio is located within the Coachella Valley Unified School District’s service area boundary. The region experiences a similar distribution of educational opportunity as the composite score opportunity areas (See Figure14A). The surrounding cities of Indian Wells, Bermuda Dunes, and Palm Desert have Census tracts indicating an education score of greater than 0.75 or more positive outcomes. La Quinta, Palm Springs, Rancho Mirage, and Cathedral City have Census tracts indicating moderate scores of 0.50 to 0.75 and 0.25 to 0.50. At a regional scale, other cities indicating less positive outcomes include the City of Coachella, Mecca, and the southeastern areas of La Quinta.

The Riverside County Office of Education (RCOE) serves Coachella Valley Unified School District (USD), Desert Sands USD, Hemet USD, Palm Springs USD, Palo Verde USD, Perris Elementary School District, Perris Union High School District, and San Bernardino County. Funded by the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001, RCOE administers the Migrant Education Program Region VII which is designed to provide supplementary educational and support services to identified migrant students in the districts it serves.

Academic support to migrant students includes English Language Arts, English Language Development, Mathematics, and School Readiness. Additionally, the program provides leadership, professional development opportunities for teachers, instructional program support, fiscal program support, technical assistance, and identification and recruitment of students to the participating districts.

Early education programs are also offered for districts in the region. The State Preschool and Pre- Kindergarten Family Literacy Program is funded by the State and offers full-day or part-day developmentally appropriate preschool instruction for eligible three- and four-year-old children. RCOE operates this program and provides funding and monitoring to sites located at centers operated by several districts in the region, including Oasis State Preschool, Coachella Valley USD, and Desert Sands USD.7

Revised Resolution No. 10254 re-approving the revised version of Housing... Page 946 of 1245 Page | 36 Appendix D: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Analysis Access to Economic Opportunity
Figure 15, Opportunity for Economic Development, shows access to opportunity for economic development. Less positive economic outcomes are in the core of Indio. As can be seen in Figure 16, Jobs Proximity Index, jobs are farthest in the majority Hispanic core of Indio, and closest in the majority White northern portion, although no portions of the City show jobs to be exceedingly close. According to U.S.

Census Bureau “On the Map” data, the City is more residential than a job center, with nearly 15,000 people working inside the City limits, but approximately 25,000 employed individuals living in Indio (U.S.

Census Bureau, 2018). Regarding employed residents of the City, 67.3 percent are Hispanic, and the employment sectors that make up more than 10 percent of those employed are accommodation and food services, health care and social assistance, and retail trade. For employed people working in the City, only 63.1 percent are Hispanic, and the employment sectors that make up more than 10 percent of those employed are accommodation and food services, waste management and remediation, retail trade, construction, and health care and social assistance (US Census Bureau, 2018). This shows a slightly lower rate of employed Hispanic people within the City, meaning Hispanic residents are more likely to have to travel out of the City to go to work than other residents. By being farther from quality jobs, The City’s Hispanic population is disadvantaged because they need to spend more time and money on commuting, which can take away from their ability to spend time and income on other things, like family and leisure. The regions’ access to economic opportunity mirrors its opportunity to education (See Figure 15A). Just outside the boundaries of the City limits, opportunity increases and remains high westward across the region. The local area around the City is rated moderately for proximity to jobs. To the north- west and the south, there are clusters of Census tracts with high jobs proximity, specifically, in the Palm Springs, Palm Desert, and Cathedral City. Directly to the east, there is very low proximity to jobs; however, this Census tract covers a large area which is primarily Joshua Tree National Park. There appears to be greater access to jobs in the more urban and industrial areas throughout the region (See Figure 16A).

The City’s 2040 General Plan includes an Economic Development Element, which provides a set of goals, policies, and actions that are geared toward promoting sustainable, fair, and equitable economic growth in the City; diversifying the local economy; and improving overall quality of life. The economic strategies are intended to increase prosperity for the City’s residents and businesses, and stimulate economic investment in the community. The City’s Economic Development Element includes goals and policies that support a dynamic economic foundation for the City that is capable of adapting to the everchanging needs of the modern economy and conditions in the Coachella Valley. The Economic Development Element aims to help improve access to economic opportunity through the following goals:

1. Bolster Indio’s tourism and hospitality sector

2. Strengthen Indio’s existing retail base and recruit new retail development

3. Create livable communities and facilitate neighborhood revitalization

4. Promote Indio’s image, identity, and opportunities

5. Be development ready

6. Seek alternative sources of sustainable revenue

7. Create new job opportunities

Revised Resolution No. 10254 re-approving the revised version of Housing... Page 949 of 1245 Page | 39 Appendix D: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Analysis Access to Transportation
Access to transportation opportunities is important, especially for people with lower levels of income who may not be able to afford a car. In more rural, suburban, or isolated areas, access to a car may be higher due to necessity and lack of transit opportunities. The City of Indio General Plan 2040 Mobility Element aims to create a transportation network that balances model priorities to address the safe and efficient operation, maintenance, and management of the circulation network. The General Plan envisions a “complete streets” circulation network that provides safe accommodation for all, responding to the context of the needs in a given area.

The rates of automobile ownership in the City can be seen in Figure 17, Automobile Ownership Rates.

They are higher outside of the core of the City, but very low within Indio’s core. Figure 18, Access to Transit, shows that the City’s core is serviced by bus stops, while other areas with higher average household incomes and more suburban settings are not within walking or biking distance of bus routes.

Lower-income households are subject to additional transportation costs in particular those living within the City’s core. Lower-income residents residing outside of the City core may face more challenges accessing transit. This, in combination with the high rates of severe renter cost burden that was found in the northeastern R/ECAP Census tract, make for disproportionate cost burdens on residents who are already likely to be low income. At a regional level, the majority of Census tracts in the surrounding cities indicate high automobile ownership rates with 89.1 percent or greater. Some tracts in the Palm Desert, Cathedral City, and Palm Springs indicate slightly lower ownership rates of approximately 81.3 percent to

89.9 percent. Although there are high automobile ownership rates regionally, reliable alternative transportation is important for low-income households or persons with special needs. This is due to the unwalkable nature of the region which is made up of developed City cores and suburban outer city areas with areas of undeveloped land. Another factor is the weather during summer months when the temperature in the City can rise up to 107 degrees Fahrenheit or more. Figure 18A, Regional Access to Transit, shows the Sun Line Transit Authority system map which services the region and connects the City to surround cities such as Palm Desert, Palm Springs, Mecca and North Shore.

Revised Resolution No. 10254 re-approving the revised version of Housing... Page 954 of 1245 Page | 44 Appendix D: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Analysis Access to a Healthy Environment
Access to a clean and healthy environment is an important part of quality of life for residents. Levels of air pollution, water quality, access to open spaces, vegetation, and more contribute to environmental factors that go into different indexes that attempt to show levels of environmental quality. Figure 19, Opportunity for Environment, shows the access to opportunity for the environment in the City. This figure shows that much of the City shows high environmental resources, with the downtown area having the lowest scores. The same type of low environmental scores in the downtown core can be seen on CalEnviroScreen, displayed in Figure 20, CalEnviroScreen 3.0. Some specific factors that are especially poor in this downtown core include ozone levels, groundwater threats, and solid waste pollution. Figure 21, Healthy Places Index, shows the Healthy Places Index scores for the City. This index uses data that impacts personal health and compiles it to show where the healthiest and least healthy places are to live.

In the City, the least healthy environment is found in the southeastern, downtown core. Low birth weight is one health factor that is especially high in the downtown core.

On February 7, 2018, the Indio City Council adopted a Healthy Eating Active Living (HEAL) Cities Campaign. The HEAL Cities campaign focuses on improving health across three policy areas: employee wellness, access to healthy food, and land use. The City is committed to reducing and preventing obesity and promoting healthier lifestyles for all residents. A community’s overall health depends on many factors. Eating well, staying active, and seeing a doctor all influence health. Health, however, is also influenced by access to social and economic opportunities, the quality of education, neighborhood conditions, workplace safety, and the cleanliness of water and air, among others. These conditions influence why some people are healthier than others, and why where people live and work matter to community health. Because healthy communities are influenced by a wide variety of factors, strategies to improve health are woven throughout the City’s General Plan. Examples include the following:
• Promoting development of non-polluting industries that are not major sources of air and water pollution (Land Use and Community Design Element, Goal 10). • Encouraging the use of bicycles and walking as the preferred transportation mode for trips to and from schools by implementing a Safe Routes to School Program (Mobility Element, Goal 2).
• Collaborating with the College of the Desert and other appropriate entities to identify and strengthen educational and training courses in new and emerging technologies (Economic Development Element, Goal 3).
• Focusing City efforts to create a variety of new parks types, including mini, neighborhood, and community gardens , within Indio’s existing neighborhoods, particularly in the most disadvantaged neighborhoods (Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Element, Goal 2).

The presence and quality of parks and open spaces are factors that are considered when determining if an environment is healthy or not. Figure 22, Parks, displays parks in the City. Parks are least prevalent in the eastern core and the northwestern portion of the City, and northwestern portion of the City is in close proximity to open spaces outside of the City, and has larger lot sizes that allow for a level of open space and vegetation within the neighborhood. The downtown core with lower environmental quality includes the same majority Hispanic, R/ECAP communities. Improving the environmental health of neighborhoods requires multiple levels of efforts, including land use planning, transportation considerations, urban forest management, healthy food options, park investments, and more.

AGENDA ITEM #10.1
Revised Resolution No. 10254 re-approving the revised version of Housing... Page 955 of 1245 Page | 45 Appendix D: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Analysis The City of Indio General Plan 2040 Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Element recognizes that parks, recreational facilities, and open space provide numerous benefits to the community while contributing to the character and charm of Indio. As the City continues to expand and develop, future demand for open space and parks will increase. The Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Element establishes long-term goals and policies for producing, managing, and maintaining public parks; Citywide trails networks; open space; and recreational facilities in Indio. Policy 2.1 of the Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Element focuses City efforts toward the creation of a variety of new parks within Indio’s existing neighborhoods, particularly in the most disadvantaged neighborhoods, to ensure that parks are safe, easy to access, and well maintained.

When compared to the region, the City enjoys a relatively high environmental opportunity score and falls on the southernmost edge of a large cluster of high opportunity that expands north (See Figure 19A).

Directly to the south of the City, a large cluster of low opportunity expands south along SR 86 which includes the Coachella and Mecca. Figure 20A, Regional CalEnviroScreen 3.0, indicates cities to the west such as Palm Springs, Palm Desert, and La Quinta have low scores ranging from 1 percent to 15 percent.

Cities in the southeast area of the map such as Coachella and Mecca have higher scores, approximately 70 percent or greater. These cities also correspond to block groups with lower median incomes and higher poverty rates. At a regional level, lower-income populations are exposed to more environmental factors. Similarly, the Healthy Places Index sores the area surrounding the City as moderate while areas to the west including Cathedral City, Palm Desert, and La Quinta have a majority of Census tracts with high ratings. Cities to the south and southeast received low ratings including the City of Coachella and Mecca (See Figure 21A).

As shown in Figure 9, the proportion of people with a disability in the City ranges anywhere from 30 percent to less than 10 percent in the Census tracts across the City. The only Census tract in the City with a population of more than 20 percent with a disability is centrally located within the City’s boundaries, overlapping with areas identified as having high concentrations of segregation and poverty. This specific Census tract has an education score of 0.25 to 0.5; an economic score of less than 0.25; and a jobs proximity score of 20–40, where less than 20 is the farthest proximity. Further, this area has the lowest rates of car ownership but has high access to public transit.

All other Census tracts within the City have a range from less than 10 percent up to 20 percent of the population with a disability. Additionally, adults age 65 and older represent the largest subgroup of those with a disability, where nearly 24 percent of older adults have a disability, most commonly an ambulatory disability.

Further trends related to persons with disabilities, including local and State analysis of prevalence of disabilities by type and age group, are included in the Housing Element’s Appendix B, Community Profile. Appendix C, Constraints and Zoning Analysis, also discusses some common zoning barriers for persons with disabilities, which include the following:
• Reasonable Accommodation Procedure:
o Common issues with reasonable accommodation procedures include excessive findings of approval, burden on applicants to prove the need for exception, application costs, and discretionary approvals. Program 28 of the Housing Element addresses the development and adoption of a reasonable accommodation procedure and accompanying informational resources.
• Family Definition:8
o Family definitions in zoning or other land-use-related documents can directly impact housing choices for persons with disabilities, particularly regarding group home situations, which are commonly used by persons with disabilities. Regulating the number of people or requiring occupants to be related can be common elements in family definitions that create barriers.
o The City’s Zoning Code defines “family” as “an individual or group of two or more persons occupying a dwelling and living together as a single housekeeping unit. Family also includes any group of individuals living together as the functional equivalent of a family where the residents share living expenses and chores meals together and are a close group with social, economical and psychological commitments to each other.

Family does not include larger institutional group living situations such as dormitories, fraternities, sororities, monasteries, convents, nor does it include such commercial group living arrangements such as boardinghouses, lodging houses, and the like.” Family dwelling units include, but are not limited to, single-family homes, duplexes, townhomes, apartments, and condominiums, and does not reference “family” as defined in the Zoning Code. The definition of family, therefore, does not constrain or limit development

8 Definitions provided from Appendix C, Constraints and Zoning Analysis, are from the City’s current Zoning Code as of August 2021. The City is in the process of updating its Zoning Code, and these definitions will be updated to reflect the most recent legislative requirements and definitions.

• Excluding Community Care Facilities:
o Excluding community care facilities in single-family zones acts as a barrier to housing choice for persons with disabilities.
o Community care facilities are defined by Section 1502 of the Health and Safety Code as “any facility, place, or building that is maintained and operated to provide nonmedical residential care, day treatment, adult daycare, or foster family agency services for children, adults, or children and adults, including, but not limited to, the physically handicapped, mentally impaired, incompetent persons, and abused or neglected children, and includes residential facilities, adult day programs, therapeutic day services facilities, foster family agencies, foster family homes, small family homes, social rehabilitation facilities, and community treatment facilities.” The Indio Municipal Code allows community care facilities as a conditional use in Residential Low, Residential Medium, Residential High, Community Commercial, Regional Community, and Open Space Districts. These use categories capture a broad range of housing types for those with special needs, including older adults, those with developmental disabilities, and those with special needs. This allows the City to accommodate many special housing types to meet the needs of residents. Through Program 37, Zoning Code Updates for the Removal of Constraints, the City will comprehensively update its Zoning Code to remove and reduce constraints for residential uses, this includes increasing permitted residential densities and identification of a zone where large community care facilities serving seven or more people is permitted without discretion.
• Spacing Requirements:
o Excessive distancing requirements between group homes or community or residential care facilities can directly impact the supply and accessibility of housing choices for persons with disabilities. The City does not mandate distance requirements for community or residential care facilities.
• Unit Types and Sizes:
o The lack of multi-family housing units or zoned capacity for the development of multi- family housing units, and a lack of variety of unit sizes (ranging from “efficiency units” to units containing four or more bedrooms) can constrain the ability of persons with disabilities to live in a more integrated community setting. Goal 1 of the Housing Element envisions an adequate supply and diverse range of housing types that align with the needs of all households. Many programs of the Housing Element will increase opportunities for the development of a more diverse range of housing types and increased densities in areas with community resources, such as recreation, transit, retail, and employment. Further, the Housing Element aims to increase housing accessibility for those with disabilities through guides and incentives. Program 23 of the Housing Element will reduce the minimum required unit size, creating more options for more diversity in the housing stock, and Program 31 encourages rezones that would allow for increased densities.
• Lack of By-Right Zoning for Supportive Housing:
o By-right zoning for supportive housing can result in more objective processes that are less likely to discriminate or have the effect of discriminating against persons with

Page 964 of 1245 Page | 54 Appendix D: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Analysis disabilities.9 Program 34 of the Housing Element will require a Zoning Code amendment to allow supportive housing by right in residential zones that permit multi-family uses, and mixed-use zones that allow residential uses. Program 7 of the Housing Element will increase opportunities for housing to be permitted by right, especially in areas with the highest access to opportunity.

Disproportionate Housing Needs and Displacement Risk
Homeownership is the largest asset of most households in the United States, and, for many low-income households, provides an opportunity for future generations to attain homeownership by increasing the family’s wealth. One of the most prevalent consequences of residential segregation is the intergenerational inaccessibility of homeownership. According to the Census, 22,931 occupied units (70.6 percent) in the City were owner-occupied in 2019, and 9,839 units (29.4 percent) were renter-occupied.

The percent of owner-occupied units in the City increased by 5.7 percent from 2010 to 2020, while the percent of owner-occupied units in Riverside County decreased by 3.7 percent. Opportunities for homeownership are rarely provided to lower-income households, as affordable housing typically takes shape through apartment rental options. Homeownership is most accessible to higher-earning households. This is due to many factors, including the high cost of housing, expensive down payments, and the accessibility of home loans that can be largely dependent on one’s credit score. Despite the high ownership rates within the City, approximately 45 percent (7,455 households) of Indio’s owner-occupied households and 78 percent (6,905) of renter-occupied households had an income less than the area medium income. For renter households, 25 percent fall in the extremely low-income category. As rents continue to rise, outpacing median income, more rental households will continue to be burdened by housing costs, leaving homeownership further out of reach for many.

Table 2, Households with Any of Four Housing Problems, shows data for households in the City experiencing any one of the four housing problems (lack of complete kitchen facilities, lack of complete plumbing facilities, more than one person per room, and monthly housing costs exceeding 30 percent of monthly income) by race or ethnicity. Figure 23, Any Four Housing Severe Problems, displays this data on a map of the City. At a regional level, about 20 percent to 40 percent of households also experience any of the 4 severe housing problems. The data shown on Figure 23A, Any Four Severe Hosing Problems throughout the Region, shows the percent of households experiencing any four housing problems at the City level. As shown on the map, the cities of Thermal and Mecca have a higher percentage of households experiencing any of the four severe housing problems at approximately 40 percent to 60 percent.

Figure 23A. Any Four Severe Housing Problems throughout the Region Generally, minority households are also more likely to experience higher rent burdens, poor housing conditions, and an increased risk of displacement and/or homelessness. White, non-Hispanic households across the region and in each jurisdiction are the least likely to experience housing problems, and Black and Hispanic households experience housing problems at the highest rates (e.g., cost burden, overcrowding). As shown above in Table 2, the Native American, non-Hispanic population experiences the highest percentage of housing problems, followed by the Hispanic population and the African American/Black, non-Hispanic population.

Housing Affordability
According to the Federal government, rental housing is considered “affordable” if the people living there pay no more than 30 percent of their income on rent. In 2014, 56 percent of all renters in the City had a housing cost burden. Of those renters, 27 percent had an extreme cost burden, paying 50 percent or more of their income on housing. This renter cost burden can be seen in Figure 24, Renter Cost Burden, with high levels in multiple Census tracts across the City, including the downtown core. The City refers individuals to the Riverside County Housing Authority, who then assists those residents with a housing cost burden by providing public assistance or Housing Choice Vouchers. In 2014, 41 percent of all homeowners in the City had a housing cost burden. Of those homeowners, 19 percent had an extreme cost burden, paying 50 percent or more of their income on housing. Figure 25, Homeowner Cost Burden, displays the homeowner cost burden, which is spread fairly evenly across the City.

Renter and homeowner cost burden remains relatively consistent throughout the region (See Figures 24A, 25A). Renter cost burden is more prevalent in the region with a majority of tracts indicating 40 percent to 60 percent of households who experience a cost burden. The southeast area of the map which includes Coachella and Thermal, have tracts with an even higher percentage of households, approximately 60 percent of households or greater, who experience renter cost burden. The majority of tracts in the region indicate 40 percent to 60 percent of homeowners experience cost burden. These

Additionally, some tracts within Cathedral City, Rancho Mirage, and Coachella indicate higher levels of cost burdened households with 60 percent or greater. As further discussed in Appendix B, Community Profile, homeowner cost burden was made worse by the impact of COVID-19 throughout the broader region. Southern Californians, challenged by the pandemic, bought the fewest homes in June 2020 than in any June on record, while record-low mortgage rates helped push the median selling price to an all-time high.

Mitigating measures were taken by the City and other local agencies to help renters and owners alike to navigate the uncertainty of the housing market during the pandemic. Read more on cost burden in Appendix B, Community Profile.

The condition of a city’s housing stock is not in itself an impediment to fair housing. However, for many low-income families, substandard housing is the only housing available at an affordable price. As further discussed in Appendix B, Community Profile, the age of a housing unit is often an indicator of housing conditions. In general, housing that is 30 years or older may exhibit need for repairs based on the useful life of materials. For example, housing that is over 30 years old is typically in need of some major rehabilitation, such as a new roof, foundation, or plumbing. Many Federal and State programs also use the age of housing as one factor in determining housing rehabilitation needs. Housing older than 50 years is considered aged and is more likely to exhibit a need for major repairs. According to Census ACS data, 15,813 of the City’s housing units, or approximately 41 percent, were constructed prior to 1990, making them at least 30 years old. Of those housing units, 5,310 were constructed prior to 1970 (at least 50 years old), which accounts for approximately 13 percent of the housing stock.

According to the 2016 ACS, 74 occupied units in the City lacked complete plumbing facilities. Twenty of the units were owner-occupied and 54 of the units were renter occupied. In addition, 132 occupied units in the City lacked complete kitchen facilities. Of those lacking complete kitchen facilities, 91 were owner occupied units. There may be some overlap in the number of substandard housing units, as some units may lack both complete plumbing and kitchen facilities.

Approximately 5.5 percent of the City’s total households are overcrowded. Instances of overcrowding vary by tenure. Approximately 7 percent of owner households and 9 percent of renter households are overcrowded. Rates of overcrowding can be seen in Figure 26, Overcrowding, with the highest rates being seen in the downtown core. As further discussed in Appendix B, Community Profile, as a proportion of total occupied housing units, renter-occupied households are disproportionately impacted by overcrowding and severe overcrowding.

The City experiences some high rates of overcrowding and is at the northernmost edge of a large cluster of Census tracts scoring high which expands south along SR 86, which includes the City of Coachella, Thermal and Mecca (See Figure 26A). At a regional level, many tracts in the region experience the Statewide average of overcrowded households of less than or equal to 8.2 percent. Some tracts to the northwest experience 8.3 percent to 12 percent, and up to 20 percent of overcrowded households which are within Palm Springs, Cathedral City, and Palm Desert.

AGENDA ITEM #10.1
Revised Resolution No. 10254 re-approving the revised version of Housing... Page 972 of 1245 Page | 62 Appendix D: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Analysis Displacement
Displacement occurs for various reasons, including investment, disinvestment, or even disasters.

Gentrification, or the influx of capital and higher-income residents into working-class neighborhoods, is often associated with displacement, which occurs when an increase in demand increases rents for residential and commercial properties, and lower-income households and businesses are priced out of the community or excluded from entering the community.

There are different stages of displacement, including at risk of displacement, early gentrification, and advanced gentrification. It is important to understand these stages in the context of an area because certain policies to counteract displacement may be more or less effective depending on the stage of displacement. Figure 27, Communities Sensitive to Displacement, shows the southern and eastern cores of the City to be vulnerable to displacement. These areas overlap with the previously shown R/ECAP areas, indicating that those same communities that have high levels and concentrations of poverty are also more vulnerable to increases in rent.

The region is host to clusters of vulnerable communities largely concentrated along major corridors such as SR 86 as well as in more urban areas to the north and far west of the City (See Figure 27A). These areas include the City of Palm Springs, Cathedral City, Palm Desert, Coachella, Thermal and Mecca.

AGENDA ITEM #10.1
Revised Resolution No. 10254 re-approving the revised version of Housing... Page 973 of 1245 Page | 63 Appendix D: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Analysis

Figure 27A. Communities Sensitive to Displacement Throughout the Region In some cases, displacement may lead to an increase in persons experiencing homelessness and increased demand for transitional and supportive housing services. Individuals who experience housing insecurity may require a wide variety of specialty support depending on the ultimate cause and extent of their displacement. As further discussed in Appendix B, Community Profile, Various circumstances that may lead to people experiencing homelessness include the following:
• Chronically homeless, single adults, including non -institutionalized, mentally disab led individuals, alcohol and drug abusers, older adults with insufficient incomes, and others who voluntarily, or are forced, due to financial circumstances, to live on the streets. • Minors who have run away from home.
• Low-income families that are temporar ily homeless due to financial circumstances or are in the process of searching for a home (single -parent families, mostly female -headed, are especially prevalent in this group).
• Individuals and families who are fleeing, or are attempting to flee, domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, stalking, or other dangerous or life-threatening conditions.

According to the 2020 Point-in-Time Count and Survey Data performed by the County of Riverside’s Department of Public Social Services, there were an estimated 2,884 people—729 sheltered and 2,155 unsheltered—experiencing homelessness in Riverside County. As of the 2020 survey, there were an estimated 83 unsheltered people experiencing homelessness in the City, with 31 percent of those individuals reporting as chronically homeless.

In regard to natural disasters, some areas that may be more vulnerable to disaster-driven displacement are in northern Indio, as these are areas more vulnerable to seismic activity and flooding (see Figure 28, Regional Hazard Map). These neighborhoods are more affluent, which makes disaster-driven displacement in these areas less likely to persist. Northwest of the City and north of Palm Springs, there are River or Stream Flood Hazard Areas and Areas with a 1 percent Annual Chance of Shallow Flooding.

Demographic Trends
In addition to the demographic trends discussed in this AFFH assessment, further demographic trends regarding race, rates of homelessness, age, and population growth can be found in the Needs Assessment in Appendix B, Community Profile. Trends regarding construction, rent prices, and sale prices can be found in Appendix C, Constraints and Zoning Analysis.

Public Assistance
Public housing and Housing Choice Vouchers are two ways that municipalities or housing authorities assist lower-income renters with financial assistance to attain affordable rents. As can be seen in Figure 29, Housing Choice Vouchers, the areas identified in the darker colors are the areas with Housing Choice Voucher data. The darkest red in the center of Indio has between 15 percent and 30 percent of renter- occupied housing units receiving Housing Choice Vouchers.

The City has a higher rate of renters utilizing the housing choice voucher program than most surrounding Census tracts (See Figure 29A). Most of the tracts experiencing a low to high percentage of renters using vouchers are along major corridors and in more urban areas. Cities with tracts indicating a higher

State law, Government Code Section 65583(c)(9), requires that the Sites Inventory be analyzed with respect to AFFH to ensure that affordable housing is dispersed equitably throughout the City rather than concentrated in areas of high segregation and poverty or low-resource areas that have historically been underserved. The City seeks to AFFH through designation of sites for affordable housing in areas of opportunity, replace segregated living patterns, and transform R/ECAPs. Through the various goals, policies, and programs present within the Housing Element, adequate sites should accommodate the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) in a manner that affirmatively furthers fair housing.

Segregation and Integration
Racial Demographics
Although past discriminatory policies and redlining practices have segregated the racial composition at a regional level, at a local level, there are no clear patterns of racial segregation within the City. The City’s predominant population identifies as non-White and Hispanic ethnicity. As such, the Housing Element Sites Inventory places all very low-, low-, moderate-, and above moderate-income units in areas with higher levels of diversity.

Household Income
The sites identified for the 6th Cycle Housing Element Sites Analysis and Inventory (see Appendix E, Sites Analysis and Inventory) are located throughout the City in the north, south, midtown, and downtown areas. All lower-, moderate-, and above moderate-income groups fall within the various median household income categories present in the City. The RHNA for above moderate-income units was met through existing pipeline development in the City that is expected to receive their Certificate of Occupancy within the planning period. The sites selected to meet the lower- and moderate-income RHNA units fall in tracts within the less than $60,000 median income bracket. Lower-income sites fall within census tracts with less than $60,000 and less than $40,000 median income brackets due to land availability that meets the criteria for sites adequate to accommodate the lower-income RHNA, which includes density and acreage requirements. In accordance with Housing Element law (Government Code Section 65583.2[c][3]), the City’s default density for lower-income sites must permit a minimum of 30 dwelling units per acre. The City has three land use designations that permit densities of 30 dwelling units per acre or greater which includes the Downtown, Midtown, and Mixed Use Neighborhood designations. Therefore, the location of lower-income sites is limited to the aforementioned land use designations. Moderate-income sites are selected in other land use designations that permit residential uses since moderate income sites do not have any density requirements and are in the Suburban Neighborhood, Neighborhood Center, and Connected Neighborhood land use designations. Because of the density criteria for lower-income sites, at a site-specific level, sites are isolated by income group and accommodate either lower-income or moderate-income units. However, the location of the sites within census tracts of varying median income levels coupled with the proximity of low-income sites near moderate-income sites, the sites analysis creates an environment conducive to mixed-income neighborhoods.

AGENDA ITEM #10.1
Revised Resolution No. 10254 re-approving the revised version of Housing... Page 977 of 1245 Page | 67 Appendix D: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Analysis Disability
Generally, there is an even distribution of the percentage of the population with a disability throughout the City. The sites identified, of all income categories, are located in areas where 30 to 40 percent, 20 to 30 percent, 10 to 20 percent, and less than 10 percent of the population has a disability.

Familial Status
There are higher percentages of the population 18 years and older in households living with a spouse and a higher percent of children in married-couple households throughout the City. The sites identified, of all income categories, are located in areas of varying population of married, single-headed, and children in married-couple households. Therefore, the sites analysis furthers fair housing by providing opportunities for all types of familial structures throughout these areas shown in Figures 5 through 8.

R/ECAPs
There are two R/ECAPs in eastern Indio, which are also near areas of high segregation and poverty as identified by the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee. There are lower-income sites that are located in these areas; however, the majority of lower-income sites, approximately 70 percent, are located in moderate- and high-resource areas, with a small portion falling within low-resource areas.

Appendix E, Sites Analysis and Inventory, also identified moderate-income sites within areas of high segregation and poverty. The Sites Analysis and Inventory furthers fair housing by creating opportunities for reversing concentrations of poverty by identifying moderate-income sites in R/ECAPs and increasing opportunities for lower-income sites in higher-resource areas. Therefore, the location of the sites identified improves conditions by promoting mixed-income neighborhoods in these R/CAPs and high segregation and poverty areas. Additionally, Program 27, Place-Based Strategies, commits the City to identify areas of opportunity for focused planning efforts through a methodology that prioritizes fair housing. Further increasing opportunities within R/ECAPs.

Disparities in Access to Opportunity
The City has a distribution of low-, moderate-, high-, and highest-resource opportunity areas. Some lower-income sites fall within low-resource and high-segregation areas, which is due primarily to the location of adequate lower-income sites per HCD criteria, (see Appendix E). However, all income group sites, including the majority of lower-income sites, identified in the 6th Cycle Housing Element are located in areas of moderate- and high-resource scores. Sites identified, especially lower-income sites, are located within walking distance to transit, near existing residential, commercial and parks. The sites’ location within moderate and high resource areas in conjunction with the City’s strategies to increase access to opportunities for residents, incentivize redevelopment projects for all income levels in the City (Programs 7, 30, 31, and 37), evaluate the feasibility of a local inclusionary housing policy (Program 11), and place-based planning strategies (Program 27) through programs in the Housing Element, are creating opportunities to improve overall conditions in the City.

Disproportionate Housing Needs, Including Displacement Risk As previously described, both homeowners and renters are experiencing overpayment in the City, with no clear location patterns. However, there is a clear area of overcrowded households and vulnerable population in the downtown core of the City. The sites identified in the 6th Cycle Housing Element are located throughout areas of homeowner and renter overpayment, as they are generally equally

AGENDA ITEM #10.1
Revised Resolution No. 10254 re-approving the revised version of Housing... Page 978 of 1245 Page | 68 Appendix D: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Analysis distributed throughout the City. There is a mix of both lower- and moderate-income sites located in the downtown core, which also experiences about 8.3 percent to greater than 20 percent overcrowding. The Sites Analysis and Inventory furthers fair housing by creating an environment conducive to mixed-income neighborhoods, particularly increasing accessibility to affordable housing, which will serve to create a more stable community in the downtown core.

Summary of Fair Housing Issues
Contributing factors to fair housing issues may include historical and current zoning and land use patterns, the high cost of housing, and historical and current discriminatory lending practices. Recent fair housing complaint data reveals discrimination in housing in the City has been based on disability, sex, race, national origin, source of income, and familial status. As discussed in Section 2, Indio Analysis of Impediments, the potential impediments to fair housing that may exist in the City include race and ethnicity trends, income by housing tenure, and housing costs. The following is a list of key conclusions from this AFFH analysis.
• Demographics. City residents have been predominantly comp osed of two racial/ethnic groups: non-Hispanic White and Hispanic. The 2014 A CS estimates approximately 45 percent (7,455 households) of the City’s owner-occupied households and 78 percent (6,905) of renter- occupied households had an income less than the area medium inco me. For renter households, 25 percent fall into the extremely low-income category (<= 30% HAMFI). Many of these households include farmworkers who earn $10,000 to $14,000 per year. • Housing Affordability. In 2014, 56 percent of all renters had a housing cost burden. Of those renters, 27 percent had an extreme cost burden, paying 50 percent or more of their income on housing. The highest percentage of cost burden households are low -income (>30% to <=50% HAMFI) , with 85 percent of the households paying more than 30 percent of their income on housing. The City refers individuals to the Riverside County Housing Authority to assist those residents with a cost burden by providing public assistance or Housing Choice Vouchers.
• Access to Opportunity. City residents located in R/ECAPs within the City have far less access to opportunity as it relates to positive environmental, economic, and educational outcomes.

CalEnviroScreen and Healthy Places Index are two indexes that combine environmental and health factors to determine environmental out comes. Each of these indicates low scores overlapping the same areas th at are identified as R/ECAPs. Measures fo r educational and economic opportunity areas are less positive in this same overlapping area. The differences in positive outcomes related to ac cess to opportunity may be attributed to unequitable investments in housing and infrastructure.
• Fair Housing Services. From 2015 through 2017, the IFHMB provided fair housing services to 82 City residents, including housing discrimination investigation an d counseling services . Of these individuals, 97 percent were considered to be low-income earners. The largest race/ethic group that was provided fair housing services were Hispanic people.

Further analysis of fair housing issues is laid out within Section 6, Contributing Factors to Fair Housing Issues and Strategies for Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing.

Page 979 of 1245 Page | 69 Appendix D: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Analysis 6 Identification and Prioritization of Contributing Factors to Fair Housing Issues and Strategies for Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
This section further analyzes the contributing factors to outreach, segregation, racially or ethnically concentrated areas of poverty, disparities in access to opportunity, and disproportionate housing needs and the strategies employed by the Housing Element for AFFH based on the identified and prioritized contributing factors. The contributing factors are prioritized as follows:

Fair Housing Enforcement and Outreach Capacity
Without a good understanding of the laws and responsibilities of landlords and tenants, renters are at a disadvantage. The City recognizes the importance of educating their residents and developers to reduce housing discrimination in the City. To realize these efforts related to furthering fair housing outreach and enforcement, the City contracts with the IFHMB, and will continue to, in addition to providing information regarding available fair housing services on the City’s website, as stated in Program 16 of the Housing Element. The IFHMB provides information and services such as investigation, education, conciliation, and referral of housing discrimination complaints free of charge to individuals. Additionally, it provides fair housing workshops and has a mediation department that provides information on rights and responsibilities under the California Landlord and Tenant Laws. Further, through Program 6, Annual Progress Reports, the City will hold annual housing forums to bring the community together with decision makers, the development community, and other stakeholders to discuss the progress towards meeting the goals and objectives of the Housing Element and to discuss solutions for and awareness of fair housing in the City.

From 2015 through 2017, the IFHMB provided fair housing services to 82 City residents. The most prominent fair housing issues were for alleged discrimination based on disability, accounting for 44 percent of all fair housing issues, and for alleged discrimination based on familial status, accounting for 27 percent of all fair housing issues. A survey conducted as part of the City’s Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice identified 50 percent of participants experienced discrimination; the most common type of discrimination reported was regarding landlords “refusing, discouraging, or charging more to rent an apartment or buy a home” in order to discourage or create a barrier for them. Through Program 5, Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice, the City will maintain an adopted Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice and create fair housing outreach materials and informational resources to post online.

In addition to the City’s efforts previously discussed in this assessment (see Section 4.5.5, Access to Opportunity for Person with Disabilities), the Housing Element further addresses these existing fair housing issues area within Program 5, in which the City will take meaningful steps in fair housing education through proactive outreach to individuals and organizations that represent lower-income households, people in protected classes, and households with special needs. Through Program 1, the City will also work to increase opportunities for persons with temporary, developing, or permanent disabilities, including older adults with changing levels of ability, by promoting increased accessibility by connecting developers and residents to resources on design features that are accessible and safe to all people regardless of age, size, ability, or disability. Additionally, the City will consider developing a

Page 980 of 1245 Page | 70 Appendix D: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Analysis program that further incentivizes accessibility in housing development and design in accordance with and exceeding what is required under State law. In addition, Program 28 specifically targets the most predominant fair housing issue in the City by affording persons with disabilities an equal opportunity to use and enjoy a dwelling. Through implementation of the program, the City will develop a process by which reasonable accommodation requests can be made (including waiver of regulations, policies, or procedures), and the right to request reasonable accommodations and to request relief from Code regulations and permitting procedures that have a discriminatory effect on housing for individuals with disabilities will be made publicly and easily accessible.

As has been discussed, there are R/ECAP within the City. The main one in the eastern core is majority Hispanic with high levels of poverty. Additionally, there are areas of racially concentrated affluence in northern Indio, with predominantly single-family neighborhoods, larger lot sizes, and majority White residents. Housing types being relatively consistent in these two areas are a contributing factor to their existence.

Program 4, Affordable Homeownership Opportunities, will work to address the disparity in homeownership by race, ethnicity, and income. Homeownership is a major way to acquire wealth, so by improving rates of homeownership, concentrations of poverty would likely decline over time to some extent. Programs 2 and 3 are accessory dwelling unit programs that will also work to break up racially concentrated areas of affluence that have occurred in the single-family neighborhoods with larger lot sizes in northern Indio. Multiple programs in the Housing Element are related to improving housing affordability and/or to promoting housing production with special attention to low-income housing.

Program 32 provides for continued participation in Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher programs. And Programs 18 and 19 promote housing preservation to help retain the existing housing stock, which assists with housing costs.

Disparities in Access to Opportunity
As seen above, access to opportunities related to quality of life differ drastically across the City. Many of these opportunities, like access to education, a healthy environment, and opportunity for economic development, compounded in the R/ECAP community in the eastern core of Indio. This shows lack of public and private investment in these areas. Additionally, higher-resource areas, such as northern Indio, have been restrictive in the past with what is allowed to be built.

Many of the pro-housing programs within the Housing Element address access to the different aspects of opportunity. Program 27 works to equitably allocate resources in underserved areas with affordable housing. Similarly, Programs 15 and 17 will implement infrastructure solutions through different financing options, such as Enhanced Infrastructure Financing Districts, grant pursuits, and partnerships.

Program 31 touches on rezoning opportunities, but specifically states that the identification of areas for rezoning will be areas with access to resources, amenities, and public transit. Programs 33 and 37 also creates new opportunities for a variety of housing types through rezones. The creation of by-right development for locations “near amenities and resources such as transit, parks, childcare facilities, and near key areas of employment” is the basis for Program 7. Program 29, Reduced Parking Requirements, is also relevant as it states that these parking reductions can be in exchange for public amenities.

Revised Resolution No. 10254 re-approving the revised version of Housing... Page 981 of 1245 Page | 71 Appendix D: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Analysis Disparities in Access to Opportunity for Persons with Disabilities Due to certain zoning code restrictions, supportive housing for persons with disabilities has not always been readily available. Restrictions have been present that limit where supportive or residential care housing can be built. Additionally, existing multifamily housing is present that does not meet the needs of recent fair housing acts. Lending discrimination or private discrimination may also occur toward persons with disabilities. The City is working to improve access to opportunity for persons with disabilities, which can be seen in multiple programs within the Housing Element. Program 1 ensures that the City will make all new, multifamily construction meet the needs of the Federal and State accessibility requirements while also promoting accessibility that goes above and beyond such requirements by providing educational resources to developers and property owners. Programs 22 and 34 amend the Zoning Code to allow low-barrier navigation centers and supportive housing to be developed in more locations.

Disproportionate Housing Needs and Displacement Risk
As detailed in previous sections, multiple types of housing needs are present for protected groups in the City. Renter and homeowner cost burden are both prevalent across the City. Overcrowding is especially an issue in the neighborhoods identified as R/ECAPs. Additionally, R/ECAPs and the adjacent central core are vulnerable to displacements. The population of persons experiencing homelessness is another concern for the City, with an estimated 2,884 people unhoused in Riverside County, 2,155 of the total unhoused individuals being unsheltered, and 31 percent of the unhoused individuals estimated as chronically homeless.

Various programs within the Housing Element attempt to address these multiple housing needs and risks. There are multiple programs that promote the creation of affordable housing, which will help to reduce the rates of overcrowded housing. Programs 14, 15, and 18 strategize to use existing regional or State partners and programs to benefit housing conditions in regard to energy conservation and home improvement or preservation. Multiple programs also address the needs of those experiencing homelessness. Program 22 addresses the provision of Low Barrier Navigation Centers offering assistance to those experiencing homelessness. Other programs offer housing assistance that can help to assist people with finding housing. Program 8 is a code compliance program that assists property owners in addressing building and zoning violations by connecting them to available resources.

Additional Programs in the Housing Element will actively affirmatively further fair housing during the planning period. These include Program 5, Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice, the City will maintain an adopted Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice and create fair housing outreach materials and informational resources to post online. Through Program 6, Annual Progress Reports, the City will hold annual housing forums to bring the community together with decision makers, the development community, and other stakeholders to discuss the progress towards meeting the goals and objectives of the Housing Element and to discuss solutions for and awareness of fair housing in the City.

Program 16, Fair Housing Referral and Mediation, the City will update and maintain their website with fair housing resources and information and provide referrals and mediation. Through Program 1, Accessibility, the City will promote increased accessibility above and beyond those requirements of the Federal and State Fair Housing Acts through incentives in exchange for increased accessibility and informational resources such as home retrofit guides and guidance on universal design. Program 27, Place-Based Strategies, commits the City to identify areas of opportunity for focused planning efforts

Program 28, Reasonable Accommodation Procedures, will create a process by which a request for a deviation may be approved for persons with disabilities.

Further, the City will administer all programs and activities related to housing and community development in a manner to Affirmatively Further Fair Housing. As detailed in Program 9, Density Bonus the City will update their Density Bonus ordinance consistent with State law. Program 24, No Net Loss will ensure that the City has adequate capacity to accommodate the RHNA throughout the 2021-2029 6th Cycle planning period (6th Cycle). Further, Programs 18, 19, and 21, demonstrates the City’s commitment to affordable housing and ensuring housing within the City is available for all income levels, prioritizing the needs of those with special needs and extremely low-income households. Through Program 18, the City will collaborate with the Riverside Housing Authority and assist in monitoring deed- restricted units by tracking existing and new affordable covenants in the City. Program 19, Housing Rehabilitation, the City will identify opportunities to increase funding for housing rehabilitation; and Program 21, the City will explore the establishment of a local housing trust fund dedicated to the creation, rehabilitation and preservation of affordable housing, transitional housing and emergency shelters; which includes a feasibility analysis.

Through Program 6 the City will continue to report annually on the City’s progress toward its 8-year RHNA housing production target and toward the implementation of the programs identified to the legislative body. The City will also use this setting to hold an annual housing forum for the discussion of the City’s progress towards the goals of the Housing Element, with additional focus on raising fair housing awareness. The housing forum will provide a platform where decision makers, members of the public, the development community, and other interested parties can work to elevate the discussion surrounding housing needs and solutions. Other programs of the Housing Element focused on addressing fair housing include the following:
• Program 1 increases opportunities for increased accessibility in housing units for those with a disability.
• Program 4 lays out objectives for increasing homeownership opportunities for lower -income households.
• Program 5 commits the City to continued analysis of fair housing and increasing informational resources for those seeking fair housing assistance.
• Program 7 facilitates the production of housing in areas with access to opportunity to positive health, economic, and educational outcomes.
• Program 10 aims to reduce the cost associated with the development of affordable housing. • Program 11 further incentivize s housing product ion while evaluating the feasibility of an inclusionary housing fee to increase funding for affordable housing. • Program 12 provides a permit streamlining program for qualifying developments that provide affordable housing.
• Program 13 clarifies language wit hin the City’s Zoning Code to increase opportunities for employee housing.
• Program 16 increases information for those in need of fair housing mediation. • Other programs of the Housing Element work to focus resources and planning efforts in areas of opportunity (Programs 33, 35, and 37).

AGENDA ITEM #10.1
Revised Resolution No. 10254 re-approving the revised version of Housing... Page 987 of 1245 Page | 1 City of Indio Appendix E: Sites Analysis and Inventory 1 Introduction
As provided under California State law (Government Code Section 65583 [a][3]), a General Plan Housing Element must include an inventory of land suitable for residential development, including vacant sites that can be developed for housing within the planning period and non-vacant sites that have realistic and demonstrated potential for redevelopment during the planning period to meet the local housing need at all income levels. As further detailed in the Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) discussion in Section 2, every local jurisdiction is assigned a number of housing units representing its share of the State’s housing needs for an 8-year period. The housing need of the City of Indio (City) for the 6th Cycle 8-year planning period (October 15, 2021– October 15, 2029) (6th Cycle) consists of 7,812 total units, including housing for all income levels, which are subdivided by levels of affordability as follows: 2,963 lower-income units (including 1,793 very low-income units and 1,170 low-income units), 1,315 moderate-income units, and 3,534 above moderate-income units.

This appendix (Sites Analysis and Inventory) of the Housing Element describes the City’s housing target for the 6th Cycle RHNA projection period (June 30, 2021, through October 31, 2029) (planning period), known as the RHNA; the methodology by which realistic development capacity was determined; and the approach used for the identification of sites. An overview of the existing capacity in the City is also provided, including an analysis of vacant and underutilized sites where housing is currently an allowed use at appropriate densities; residential projects in the pipeline with approved or pending residential units that are anticipated in the planning period or projects with remaining entitlements, including approved or anticipated affordability for the units in each project; and the projection of accessory dwelling units anticipated for the planning period. The remainder of the RHNA is accommodated by sites that will be rezoned to accommodate higher density housing development. See Table I, Summary of RHNA Strategies, for an overview of strategies that the City will use to accommodate the RHNA during 6th Cycle planning period.

1. The City has a RHNA of 1,793 very low-income units. Pursuant to State law (AB 2634), 50% of the very low-income units are assumed to be extremely low- income. Therefore, the City’s RHNA of 2,963 lower-income units may be divided into 896 extremely low-income units, 897 very low-income units, and 1,170 low- income units. However, for the purposes of identifying adequate sites for the RHNA, the State law does not mandate the separate accounting of units for extremely low-income households.

2. For sites that are identified in the Sites Inventory and the rezoning program to meet the lower-income RHNA, it is assumed that 50% of the realistic capacity of a site counts toward the low-income RHNA, and 50% of realistic capacity counts toward the very-low income RHNA.

3.The total of 1,608 moderate-income units does not include the 632 units identified as existing capacity, it only includes the 29 projected ADU’s and 1,579 units after rezoning because all of the parcels with existing capacity (632 units) will be rezoned and their new realistic capacity was already accounted for in the new realistic capacity of 1,579 moderate-income units.

AGENDA ITEM #10.1
Revised Resolution No. 10254 re-approving the revised version of Housing... Page 988 of 1245 Page | 2 City of Indio Appendix E: Sites Analysis and Inventory 2 Regional Housing Needs Allocation
Pursuant to State law, each jurisdiction in the State has a responsibility to accommodate a share of the projected housing needs in its region. The California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) assesses each region’s housing needs and allocates a unit count (the RHNA) to each region in the State. The RHNA is mandated by State housing law as part of the periodic process of updating local Housing Elements of General Plans. The RHNA quantifies the need for housing within each jurisdiction during specified planning periods.

As part of the assessment and allocation process, each council of governments develops a methodology to determine each jurisdiction’s RHNA as a share of the regional housing need provided by HCD. Each jurisdiction’s RHNA is broken down by income category, ensuring that all economic groups are accommodated. The methodology generally distributes more housing, particularly lower-income housing, near jobs, transit, and resources linked to long-term improvements of life outcomes, and must further State objectives, including affirmatively furthering fair housing.

The City’s share of regional housing need was determined by a methodology prepared by the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) as part of its Final Regional Housing Needs Assessment Allocation Plan, adopted in March 2021 and updated in June 2021. In accordance with the Final RHNA Allocation Plan, the City must plan to accommodate 7,812 total housing units for the projection period beginning June 30, 2021, and ending October 15, 2029. This is equal to a yearly average of approximately 942 housing units. The 7,812 total units are split into four RHNA income categories (very low-, low-, moderate-, and above moderate-income). Table 1 provides the City’s RHNA by income category. Of the 7,812 total units, the City must plan to accommodate 1,793 units for very low-income households, 1,170 units for low-income households, 1,315 units for moderate-income households, and 3,534 units for above moderate-income households from 2021 to 2029.

Table 1. City of Indio RHNA 2021–2029
Income Category Units Percent of Total
Very Low-Income 1,793 23.0%
Low-Income 1,170 15.0%
Moderate-Income 1,315 16.8%
Above Moderate-Income 3,534 45.2%
Total 7,812 100%
To ensure that adequate capacity is maintained in the City throughout the 6th Cycle, additional capacity above and beyond the RHNA assigned to the City has been identified. In accordance with State requirements, the City will monitor the housing capacity identified in this Sites Inventory throughout the planning period to maintain sufficient capacity for the remaining RHNA at all income levels. As provided in Table I, and further detailed in this Sites Analysis, the City has a total existing capacity for 677 lower- income units, 661 moderate-income units, and 9,859 above moderate-income units within 1) residential pipeline of projects; 2) through the projected number of ADUs and JADUs; and 3) vacant and underutilized sites with existing capacity.

AGENDA ITEM #10.1
Revised Resolution No. 10254 re-approving the revised version of Housing... Page 989 of 1245 Page | 3 City of Indio Appendix E: Sites Analysis and Inventory To address the shortfall of sites, the City is currently in the process of updating its Zoning Ordinance (Zoning Code) as of November 2021. The rezoned sites will provide an additional capacity of 3,160 lower-income units and a new total capacity of 1,579 moderate-income units. Program 33, Sites Inventory Zoning Update Program, of the Housing Element commits the City to adopt the updated Zoning Ordinance within a year of Housing Element adoption to provide adequate capacity throughout the planning period. Under the updated Zoning Code, the City will have a surplus of 874 lower-income units and 293 moderate-income units to serve as a generous buffer beyond what is required. See additional details in Section 5, Summary of Capacity to Accommodate the RHNA. 3 Vacant and Underutilized Sites Methodology and
Assumptions
State law requires each jurisdiction to include a land inventory to identify specific sites that are suitable for residential development and to demonstrate that sufficient land is available to provide adequate housing capacity to meet the RHNA for each income level. This section of the Sites Analysis describes the methodology used to calculate the housing capacity on all vacant and non-vacant developable land within City limits that will be zoned or rezoned to allow for housing and available to develop within the 6th Cycle Housing Element planning period.

3.1 Process Overview
As part of the Sites Analysis, the City and consulting team identified specific sites that are suitable for residential development to determine whether there are sufficient sites to accommodate the City’s regional housing need in total and by income category. This analysis helped the City determine the programs that the City will adopt to make sites available with appropriate zoning, development standards, and infrastructure capacity to accommodate the new construction needed during the 6th Cycle (see complete infrastructure capacity discussion in the Housing Element’s Appendix C, Constraints and Zoning Analysis).

The Sites Analysis was completed using geographic information system (GIS) mapping software using multiple data sets to identify potentially available housing sites, largely depending on SCAG’s annual land use parcel-level dataset (ALU v.2019.2) available from SCAG’s open GIS data portal (last updated in June 2021). SCAG’s land use dataset provides extensive parcel-level data, including existing land uses, principally based on 2019 tax assessor records.1 In addition, online mapping tools, including Google Earth and Google Maps, as well as City knowledge of the current projects in the pipeline and development interest in certain areas of the City, were used to verify vacant and underutilized status and existing uses.

With the large quantities of vacant land that exist in the City, the Sites Analysis largely depends on those vacant sites within City limits that permit for residential development under their existing General Plan land use designation and that will be rezoned and made available during the planning period. However, a small number of sites identified in the Sites Inventory are on non-vacant, underutilized parcels.

AGENDA ITEM #10.1
Revised Resolution No. 10254 re-approving the revised version of Housing... Page 990 of 1245 Page | 4 City of Indio Appendix E: Sites Analysis and Inventory Determining which non-vacant sites are underutilized and have the strongest potential for redevelopment can help identify ideal areas for accommodating new housing through redevelopment.

Underutilized sites are identified through thorough and selective criteria to determine which existing uses are most likely to redevelop when paired with the right land use designation, regulations, and policies.

Under State law, if a housing element relies on nonvacant sites to accommodate 50 percent or more of its RHNA for lower-income households, the nonvacant site’s existing use is presumed to impede additional residential development, unless the housing element describes findings based on substantial evidence that the use will likely be discontinued during the planning period. While this does not apply, as the large majority of parcels identified in this Sites Analysis are on vacant land, the analysis provides clear evidence that the existing uses on the sites identified to be underutilized are not considered an impediment to future development as the majority of the sites are currently empty grass or dirt lots, large surface parking lots, or concrete lots without existing structures, and are owned by the City or Housing Authority. Only four of the total parcels identified as underutilized in this Sites Analysis have existing structures, and three of those structures are vacant. See Sections 4.1.2, Midtown (MT), and

4.1.3, Downtown (DT), for additional details. As part of this identification process, an analysis of underutilized sites was conducted to determine where to prioritize Housing Element programs that aim to increase opportunities for housing development. In addition to analyzing the existing uses and proximity to resources and existing infrastructure on each parcel, the methodology for identifying and prioritizing underutilized sites was largely based on the following factors:
• Existing Use – No existing structures, or existing structure is a vacant building • Publicly Owned – Publicly owned surplus land, and/or owned by the City or Housing Authority • Building Age – Buildings built prior to 1981 (most sites identified are older than 40 years) • Under Valued – An assessed improvement-to-land-value ratio less than 1 • Site Size – Parcel greater than 0.5 acres or less than 10 acres, or smaller parcels with the potential for lot consolidation resulting in a site greater than 0.5 acres None of the underutilized sites are known to have been occupied in the past 5 years by lower-income housing. All parcels included in the Sites Inventory were reviewed for any known environmental constraints; the sites included in the inventory have all been designated for residential development and are not constrained by known site-specific constraints that would limit development. Parcels that were identified as having absolute constraints2 were removed from the inventory. Land suitable for residential development must be appropriate and available for residential use in the planning period. As such, the sites were also reviewed according to their development standards and regulations, and to recently approved or built residential projects in the same designations where housing is an allowed use.

2 Per Connect SoCal’s Sustainable Communities Strategy Technical Report’s (adopted September 3, 2020) areas that include absolute constraints are identified to avoid placement of future growth, such as preserved land where growth has been reduced and redirected, as well as variable constraints where growth could be avoided if possible.

3.2 Density and Affordability Assumptions
Every city in California must have a General Plan that establishes policy guidelines for all development within the city. The General Plan is the foundation of all land use controls in a jurisdiction. The Land Use Element of the City’s General Plan identifies the location, distribution, and density of the land uses within the City. General Plan residential densities are expressed in dwelling units per acre. The Indio General Plan 2040 was adopted in September 2019 and has brought forth a new creative strategy for meeting the future needs of the City through land use designations that permit a broad mix of uses. The Land Use Element of the General Plan identifies land use designations called “place types” that are classified by major classes: Neighborhoods, Centers, and Districts. Each Neighborhood, Center, and District contains a mix of uses and provides guidance related to scale and intensity, density, and form and placement of development. Both Centers and Neighborhoods permit residential uses. As of November 2021, the City is currently in the process of updating its Zoning Ordinance to be consistent with the Indio General Plan 2040. As detailed in Programs 33, Sites Inventory Zoning Update Program, and 37, Zoning Code Updates for the Removal of Constraints, of the Housing Element, the updated zoning regulations, which will be adopted mid-2022, will implement the 2040 General Plan, including the allowed densities and uses. As such, with the exception of sites identified in Downtown Indio, which already have the zoning in place through the Downtown Specific plan adopted in April 2020 (see additional details in Section 4.1.3, Downtown (DT)), the Sites Analysis relied on the existing 2040 General Plan land use designations, which will be consistent with the updated Zoning Code.

Government Code Section 65583.2(c) requires, as part of the analysis of available sites, a local government to demonstrate that the projected residential development capacity of the sites identified in the Housing Element can realistically be achieved. This realistic capacity may use established minimum densities to calculate the housing unit capacity. The Sites Analysis estimated realistic capacity, as shown in Table 2. As a conservative estimate of capacity calculations, the minimum permitted density of 20 dwelling units per acre was used for all sites identified to accommodate the City’s lower-income RHNA. As included in Program 33 of the Housing Element, rezoned sites identified in the Mixed Use Neighborhood and Midtown designations will accommodate the shortfall of lower-income units. The sites rezoned to accommodate the lower-income shortfall will permit a minimum of 20 dwelling units per acre and will allow a maximum density of 40 dwelling units per acre, require residential use to occupy at least 50 percent of the floor area in a mixed-use project, and allow 100 percent residential use, in accordance with the requirements of Government Code Section 65583.2. Therefore, the realistic density was calculated at the minimum 20 dwelling units per acre for the Mixed Use Neighborhood and Midtown designations to account for potential commercial components.

For the existing Downtown Specific Plan area, the maximum density permitted is currently 60 dwelling units per acre, in accordance with the Downtown (DT) land use designation. Although affordable developments in the City serve as examples of affordable projects built at higher densities, such as the approved densities for Phase I and Phase II of the Arroyo Crossing project (a mixed-use affordable housing project in the pipeline discussed in Section 4.2, Planned, Approved, and Prospective Projects providing extremely low-, very low-, and low-income units) of approximately 30 and 27.5 dwelling units per acre, the realistic capacity for sites identified in the Downtown used a very conservative approach.

To account for commercial components, the realistic capacity assumed 33 percent of the maximum density for sites in the Downtown zone, and the realistic capacity was conservatively calculated at 20 dwelling units per acre, in line with the Mixed Use Neighborhood and Midtown realistic density assumptions.

Page 992 of 1245 Page | 6 City of Indio Appendix E: Sites Analysis and Inventory Sites identified to accommodate the City’s moderate-income RHNA have been calculated based off the minimum and maximum permitted densities in the corresponding land use designation, and the density ranges that will be adopted in their corresponding zoning regulations under the updated Zoning Code.

The Suburban Neighborhood designation allows for a maximum density of eight dwelling units per acre.

The realistic capacity conservatively estimated 50 percent of the maximum density at a density of 4 dwelling units per acre. The Neighborhood Center allows for a density range of 10 to 20 dwelling units per acre. The realistic capacity conservatively estimated 50 percent of the maximum density at a density of 10 dwelling units per acre. The Connected Neighborhood zone will allow a density range of 8 to 20 dwelling units per acre. While a small portion of the Connected Neighborhood zone will allow mixed uses, the majority of the zone will require standalone residential and not permit commercial uses. A majority of the zone will require standalone residential, and not permit commercial. The realistic capacity conservatively estimated 50 percent of the permitted density range at a density of 14 dwelling units per acre. This does not limit the ability of a project to be built at the higher densities allowed under either the zoning or the General Plan, and several existing or recently approved development projects have been developed at densities above the minimum permitted density in the corresponding zone.

Furthermore, it is expected that property owners will strive for densities far above the minimums, assuming developers can earn greater profits for construction on the same parcel of land. Sites identified to accommodate the City’s above moderate-income RHNA have been calculated based on their presumed or approved densities, as detailed in the overview of residential development in the pipeline in Section 4.2, Planned, Approved, and Prospective Projects.

3.2.1 Lower-Income Sites
In accordance with Housing Element law (Government Code Section 65583.2[c][3]), the City’s default density for lower-income sites must permit a minimum of 30 dwelling units per acre. Further, it is detailed under State guidance that sites that are too small or too large (less than 0.5 acres or greater than 10 acres) may not facilitate developments affordable to lower-income households. However, parcels less than 0.5 acres may be included if there is the potential for combining small lots into larger single sites to accommodate higher-density development through lot consolidation. As such, sites included in the lower-income sites inventory with only one parcel have been limited to parcels between

0.5 and 10 acres. However, parcels identified in the Downtown area that are individually less than 0.5 acres but are reasonably expected to be consolidated with other parcels into a single site have been

AGENDA ITEM #10.1
Revised Resolution No. 10254 re-approving the revised version of Housing... Page 993 of 1245 Page | 7 City of Indio Appendix E: Sites Analysis and Inventory included in the Sites Inventory. These parcels have been identified as part of sites with two or more parcels that together are greater than 0.5 acres and are rendered suitable for consolidation into one single site. The City will incentivize lot consolidation through Program 11, Development Incentives and Programs, of the Housing Element. See Section 4.1.3, Downtown (DT), for an analysis related to parcels anticipated to be consolidated, which provides evidence to demonstrate that development of housing affordable to lower-income households on these sites is realistic or feasible.

The City has three land use designations that permit densities of 30 dwelling units per acre or greater:

Mixed Use Neighborhood (MUN), Midtown (MT), and Downtown (DT) designations. Sites identified in these three designations, excluding those in the pipeline, were included in the Sites Inventory as lower- income sites.

3.2.2 Moderate-Income Sites
Large amounts of vacant land in the Suburban Neighborhoods (SN), Neighborhood Center (NC), and Connected Neighborhood (CN) designations exist in the City. All three designations provide opportunities for a range of housing choices at medium densities. As such, all sites identified within the designations were inventoried at the moderate-income level. While sites identified to accommodate moderate-income units may be less than 0.5 acres, all vacant sites identified in these three designations have been limited to those between 0.5 and 10 acres, with the exception of one site (Site 158O in Table 16, Sites Inventory Table) in the CN designation. This site is comprised of three congruent parcels reasonably anticipated to be consolidated as all three are vacant, surplus land owned by the City. Two of the parcels in Site 158O are less than 0.5 acres, but together, the consolidated site is approximately two acres.

3.2.3 Above Moderate-Income Sites
Indio has a significant number of development projects in the pipeline that are seeking entitlements or are actively pursuing construction. Sites with remaining entitlements for above moderate-income units in the pipeline were identified as having the capacity to accommodate the above moderate-income allocation based on the affordability and unit count of the development.

3.3 Sites Identified in Previous Housing Elements
Per Government Code Section 65583.2(c), a non-vacant parcel identified in a previous planning period and a vacant parcel that has been included in two or more previous consecutive planning periods cannot be used to accommodate the lower-income RHNA unless the parcel is subject to a program in the Housing Element to allow residential use by-right for housing developments in which at least 20 percent of the units are affordable to lower-income households.

Eight of the underutilized parcels identified in the Sites Inventory for lower-income housing were included in a previous Housing Element, and 28 of the vacant parcels included in the inventory for lower-income housing have been included in the two previous Housing Element planning periods (see Section 5 for individual site and parcel details). Housing Element Program 7 commits the City to allowing residential use by-right on these sites, as identified in Exhibit A, Housing Element Electronic Sites Inventory Form, or Table 16, Sites Inventory Table, for housing developments in which at least 20 percent of the units are affordable to lower-income households. The City has 3 years from the beginning of the planning period to implement this policy. Refer to Exhibit A, or to the first column in Table 16, Sites Inventory Table, which indicates if a parcel has been previously identified.

The following is a description of the residential capacity on vacant and underutilized sites within each land use designation permitting residential uses. Figure 1, Sites Inventory and Land Use Capacity by Land Use Designation, provides an overview of the existing capacity identified in the Sites Inventory and the City’s 2040 General Plan land use designation. The vacant and underutilized sites identified in Figure 1 are the vacant and nonvacant sites that have been included in the Sites Inventory; it is not a comprehensive inventory of all vacant and underutilized sites in the City.

4.1 Capacity by Land Use Designation
National trends in the shifting retail market are reflected in a shift toward residential and mixed uses on commercially zoned sites. It is reasonable for the City to expect to see these trends continue on a local level. Per the Indio General Plan 2040 adopted in September 2019, the City currently allows standalone, multi-unit residential development as a use permitted by-right in most mixed-use designations throughout the City, including in the Neighborhood Center (NC), Connected Neighborhood (CN), Midtown (MT), and Downtown (DT) designations. Therefore, the City assumes that many of the identified sites may be developed as purely residential projects at densities far above the minimum densities and the assumptions used to calculate the realistic capacity. Furthermore, the vast majority of sites identified are located on vacant sites, and therefore do not have existing uses constituting an impediment to additional residential development during the 6th Cycle.

In addition, as of July 2021, the City is working on the Highway 111 Corridor Specific Plan (Highway 111 Specific Plan), a strategic action plan for the future revitalization of 3.9 miles of Highway 111 between Indio Boulevard and Jefferson Street. The Highway 111 Specific Plan, which is expected to be adopted in 2022, will replace two existing Specific Plans that apply to certain properties in the Corridor: the Central Highway 111 Specific Plan and the Mixed-Use Specific Plan 300. One of the Highway 111 Specific Plan’s key planning goals is to create strategies for the production of a minimum of 500 new housing units within the Corridor, including market-rate and affordable and workforce housing. The Corridor is largely located along the Mixed Use Neighborhood (MUN) and Midtown (MT) land use designations. As such, implementation of the Highway 111 Specific Plan is anticipated to promote and facilitate development of housing in both designations.

Lower-Income Sites (Refer to Sections 4.1.1 through 4.1.4 for details) As of November 2021, the City’s current Zoning Ordinance (Chapter 159, Zoning Regulations of the City’s Municipal Code) permits or conditionally permits multifamily housing in limited zones throughout the City (see full details in Appendix C of the Housing Element). With the exception of the Downtown Indio Specific Plan, where multifamily housing is an allowed use in the City, the maximum densities permitted by the current Zoning Ordinance pose a constraint to the development of housing in accordance with Housing Element law (Government Code Section 65583.2[c][3]), which requires that the City’s default density for lower-income sites permit a minimum of 30 dwelling units per acre. As such, the sites inventory could only identify existing capacity for vacant and underutilized sites within the Downtown area, as discussed in Section 4.1.3, Downtown (DT). However, as previously mentioned, the Indio General Plan 2040 was adopted in September 2019. The 2040 General Plan permits densities that may facilitate development of housing affordable to lower-income households as show in Table 2, and as of November 2021, the City is currently in the process of updating its Zoning Ordinance to be consistent

AGENDA ITEM #10.1
Revised Resolution No. 10254 re-approving the revised version of Housing... Page 995 of 1245 Page | 9 City of Indio Appendix E: Sites Analysis and Inventory with the Indio General Plan 2040. As detailed in Program 33, Sites Inventory Zoning Update Program, and Program 37, Zoning Code Updates for the Removal of Constraints, of the Housing Element, the updated zoning regulations, which will be adopted mid-2022, will implement the 2040 General Plan. This will include the allowed densities and uses under the 2040 General Plan, ensuring that densities are achievable under the newly formed standards of the updated Zoning Code. As such, the Sites Analysis relied on the existing 2040 General Plan land use designations, which will be consistent with the updated Zoning Code. Therefore, the capacity identified in Sections 4.1.1, Mixed Use Neighborhoods (MUN), and 4.1.2, Midtown (MT), will be available to address the lower-income shortfall following the adoption of the updated Zoning Ordinance (see Section 5.2.1, Lower-Income Shortfall Addressed, for a full breakdown of capacity).

Moderate-Income Sites (Refer to Sections 4.1.5 through 4.1.8 for details) Under the City’s current Zoning regulation and corresponding densities, there is limited existing capacity for development appropriate to accommodate moderate-income housing. Some of the parcels identified to accommodate moderate-income units in Sections 4.1.5, Suburban Neighborhoods (SN), and 4.1.7, Connected Neighborhood (CN), have existing capacity under their existing zones (current zoning can be found in Exhibit A) appropriate to accommodate moderate-income housing and have been identified with an existing capacity of 632 units. However, all of these parcels will be rezoned as part of the Zoning Code update. The updated Zoning Code will create the capacity to accommodate a total of 1,579 moderate-income units on vacant sites in the Suburban Neighborhood, Neighborhood Center, and Connected Neighborhood designations (See Section 5.2.2, Moderate-Income Deficit Addressed, for additional details). Therefore, only the new total capacity of 1,579 under the updated Zoning Code has been accounted for in the final totals (see Table I for details).

4.1.1 Mixed Use Neighborhood (MUN)
The Mixed Use Neighborhood (MUN) land use designation provides for moderate- to higher-intensity neighborhood development that features a variety of multifamily housing choices and limited neighborhood-serving commercial uses in a walkable environment at densities up to 40 dwelling units per acre. Approximately 898 acres of the City are in the MUN designation. However, only vacant parcels greater than 0.5 acres or less than 10 acres have been included in the Sites Inventory. Based on the permitted density and range of permitted multifamily residential uses and neighborhood-serving amenities in the MUN designation, the sites have been identified as appropriate to accommodate lower- income housing. While the existing capacity on these sites under the current Zoning regulations is zero as of November 2021, the sites will be made available following adoption of the updated Zoning Code as included in Program 33, Sites Inventory Zoning Update Program, of the Housing Element (see additional details in Section 5.2.1, Lower-Income Shortfall Addressed) and have been included in the Sites Inventory.

Based on a realistic residential development potential of 20 dwelling units per acre in the MUN designation, a total of 38 sites with 2,334 units on approximately 117 total acres have been included in the Sites Inventory. Table 3 provides a summary of all vacant sites in the MUN designation identified in the Sites Inventory. See Figure 2, Mixed-Use Neighborhood Sites, for an overview of sites identified in the MUN land use designation. The vacant sites identified in Figure 2 are vacant sites that have been included in the Sites Inventory; it is not a comprehensive inventory of all vacant sites in the MUN designation.

Refer to Section 4.2 for additional lower- and moderate-income units in the pipeline located in the MUN designation that will be credited toward the City’s 6th Cycle RHNA.

4.1.2 Midtown (MT)
The Midtown (MT) land use designation provides for an active, mixed-use center by allowing multistory, mixed-use buildings at higher intensities, including multifamily standalone residential uses, community gathering spaces, and land uses to support residents and visitors at densities up to 40 dwelling units per acre. Approximately 174 acres of the City are in the MT designation. However, only parcels greater than

0.5 acres or less than 10 acres have been included in the Sites Inventory3. Based on the permitted density and range of permitted multifamily residential uses and neighborhood-serving amenities in the MT designation, the sites have been identified as appropriate to accommodate lower-income housing.

While the existing capacity on these sites under their current Zoning regulations is zero, the sites will be made available following adoption of the updated Zoning Code as included in Program 33, Sites Inventory Zoning Update Program, of the Housing Element (see additional details in Section 5.2.1, Lower-Income Shortfall Addressed) and have been included in the Sites Inventory.

Based on a realistic residential development potential of 20 dwelling units per acre in the MT zone, a total of 12 sites with 826 units on approximately 40.4 total acres have been included in the Sites Inventory. Table 4 provides a summary of all sites in the MT designation identified in the Sites Inventory, including 12 total parcels (11 vacant parcels and 1 underutilized parcel). The one underutilized parcel (Assessor’s Parcel Number 611110043) is occupied by an old, large surface parking lot and an empty concrete building pad. The site has no existing buildings and a very low overall assessed improvement- to-land-value ratio of 0.09. The portion of the site with the concrete building pad used to have a half vacant commercial strip-mall, but the entire structure was demolished between 2015-2016 and the parcel is now for sale, so the existing use is not considered an impediment to future development.

See Figure 3, Midtown Sites, for an overview of sites identified in the MT land use designation. The vacant and underutilized sites identified in Figure 3 are vacant and nonvacant sites that have been included in the Sites Inventory; it is not a comprehensive inventory of all vacant and nonvacant sites in the MT designation.

Refer to Section 4.2 for additional above moderate-income units in the pipeline located in the MT designation that will be credited toward the City’s 6th Cycle RHNA.

4.1.3 Downtown (DT)
Over the years, the Downtown core was eroded, due to development policies that prioritized automobile transportation and suburban housing. This sequence of events has been often repeated throughout the United States, but fortunately Indio retains many of its key Downtown assets. Its street grid framework largely remains intact, and the City has planned for the current transit center to be a future multi-modal transit hub and one day deliver regional visitors directly to the Downtown core.

Downtown is once again poised for economic growth. As a central area of civic activity at local and regional scales, an emerging center for education, and a popular location for special events with significant land available for new development, the Downtown area is primed for redevelopment and revitalization.

The Downtown Indio Specific Plan (DTSP), adopted in April 2020, further incentives these redevelopment and revelational efforts. The DTSP is the current regulatory plan providing the vision and zoning for the parcels in the 140-acre Downtown planning area. A comprehensive update to the City’s Zoning Code is currently underway, and it is expected that the City will amend the City of Indio Municipal Code to include comprehensively updated zoning standards. One of the DTSP’s goals is to diversify the City’s housing stock to include new housing types that serve a broad and diverse community of new and existing residents, providing housing opportunities for households of all ages, types, incomes, and lifestyles in an amenity-rich urban environment. The City recognizes that desired components of the Downtown environment are not likely to be provided by the market alone, as such, the DTSP provides incentives for developing specified community benefits, including student housing and residential amenities, in exchange for an increase in heigh limit. As such, implementation of the DTSP is anticipated to promote the production and facilitate development of housing in the Downtown.

The Downtown (DT) land use designation supports a lively, thriving Downtown area by accommodating multistory, mixed-use buildings at higher intensities, including multifamily standalone residential and live/work uses at densities up to 60 dwelling units per acre. Approximately 77 acres of the City are in the DT designation. However, only individual parcels or parcels rendered suitable for consolidation into one site (sites can be made up of single parcels, or two or more parcels that are anticipated to be consolidated and developed into a single site) greater than 0.5 acres or less than 10 acres have been included in the Sites Inventory. Based on the permitted density and range of permitted multifamily residential uses, the sites have been identified as appropriate to accommodate lower-income housing (See Section 3.2.1 for additional discussion related to sites methodology). All sites proposed to be consolidated are denoted by a letter following the Site number in both Table 16, Sites Inventory Table, and in Exhibit A, Housing Element Electronic Sites Inventory Form.

Based on a realistic residential development potential of 20 dwelling units per acre, a total of 13 sites with an existing total capacity of 233 units on approximately 12 total acres in the Downtown Specific Plan area and DT designation have been included in the Sites Inventory. Table 5 provides a summary of all vacant and underutilized sites in the DT designation identified in the Sites Inventory. The 13 sites are made up of a total of 55 individual parcels, many of which are reasonably expected to be consolidated and developed into single sites. 35 of the parcels in the Sites Inventory identified in the DT designation are completely vacant, which is approximately two thirds of the total 55 parcels identified in the DT designation. A realistic capacity for 147 lower-income units has been identified on the vacant parcels.

The other 20 parcels identified are underutilized. However, the majority of the underutilized sites are

AGENDA ITEM #10.1
Revised Resolution No. 10254 re-approving the revised version of Housing... Page 1002 of 1245 Page | 16 City of Indio Appendix E: Sites Analysis and Inventory not currently being utilized by an existing use, or do not have existing structures and are only empty grass, dirt or concrete lots, or parking lots. In addition, 16 out of the 20 underutilized parcels, are owned by the City or the Housing Authority. A realistic capacity for 86 lower-income units has been identified on the underutilized parcels.

Existing Uses
16 of the 20 underutilized parcels do not have existing structures (refer to Table 16 for parcel specific details). Specifically, nine of the underutilized parcels are large, underutilized surface parking lots or concrete lots, and seven parcels are currently empty grass or dirt lots. As such there is no existing structure that constitutes an impediment to additional residential development. The remaining four out of the 20 underutilized parcels are the only parcels that have existing structures; however, the parcels contain buildings that are vacant or in disrepair. Two of the parcels (APN numbers 611213028 and 611221007, part of consolidated sites 7E and 10H in Table 16, respectively) both have vacant, closed fast-food restaurant, one of which is a 41-year-old structure and the other a 57-year-old structure built in 1965. One of the parcels (Parcel number 611213024 part of consolidated site 8F in Table 16) is publicly owned by the Housing Authority and has a 55-year-old vacant structure built in 1967. The only underutilized parcel (Parcel number 611223004 part of consolidated site 13K in Table 16) with an existing structure that is not vacant, has a small, 75-year-old commercial building built in 1946 on a small portion of the front half of the lot, and an old concrete lot in the back. The parcel has a site improvement-to-land-value ratio of 0.6 and a floor area ratio of 0.09, and there are no known long-term leases or contracts that would prevent redevelopment of the site. Therefore, it is reasonable to identify the parcel as a good candidate for more-intensive residential uses through redevelopment.

As for the parcels that are currently used as large, surface parking lots, the City has had a long-term goal of revitalizing the City’s downtown area through mass redevelopment opportunities that could include such properties. To advance these efforts, the City recently (November 2021) declared approximately

8.2 acres (26 total parcels) in the downtown area as surplus land as defined in Government Code Section 54221 (Resolution No. 10239), including 10 parcels identified in Table 16.

Over the past 20 years, the City—and its former redevelopment agency—strategically acquired a significant mass of key land within the DT area. Most of this property is between Requa Avenue and Indio Boulevard. The City can leverage this asset by entering into development agreements with developers who share the City’s ambitious vision of a new, active, mixed-use urban center, and are willing and able to work with the City to make such outcomes financially feasible. Of the parcels included in the Sites Inventory in the DT designation, 35 are owned by the City or the Housing Authority.

As the locally owned parcels included in the Sites Inventory are sold, leased, or otherwise disposed of, the City will track and include the information in the Housing Element Annual Progress Reports, as detailed in the Housing Element programs.

Approximately 90 percent of parcels in the DT designation are less than 0.5 acres. Therefore, most of the sites identified in Table 5 include two or more parcels anticipated to be consolidated to create sites that allow sufficient capacity for a typical affordable housing project. If the sites inventory were to exclude all individual parcels smaller than 0.5 acres, without considering the possibility of consolidating smaller parcels into one site, the Sites Inventory would be excluding 90 percent of the City’s total downtown parcels from the Sites Inventory and acting as a constrain to the City's long-term goal of revitalizing the City's Downtown area. As previously discussed, interest from developers and recent trends of lot

Furthermore, the City will specifically support lot consolidation through the creation of an incentive that can be offered in exchange for lot consolidation as part of Program 11, Development Incentives and Programs, of the Housing Element.

4.1.4 Summary of Lower-Income Sites
In total, the Sites Inventory includes an existing capacity to accommodate 233 lower-income units in the in the Downtown Specific Plan area. To accommodate the City’s remaining 6th Cycle RHNA for lower- income units and a buffer to ensure capacity throughout the Housing Element planning period, the City will adopt an updated Zoning Ordinance by mid-2022 to create the capacity for an additional 3,160 lower-income units as identified in the MUN and MT designations (See additional details in Section

5.2.1, Lower-Income Shortfall Addressed).

4.1.5 Suburban Neighborhood (SN)
The Suburban Neighborhood (SN) land use designation provides low-intensity neighborhood development for single-family and small, low-intensity multifamily dwelling groupings organized along walkable streetscapes with commercial/retail activity nearby. A large portion, approximately 8,264 acres, of the City is in the SN designation. Approximately 2,161 of those acres are vacant, including several large parcels on the northern perimeters of the City that account for almost 1,000 acres of vacant land in the SN designation. However, only vacant parcels greater than 0.5 acres or less than 10 acres have been included in the Sites Inventory. Based on the permitted densities, range of single-family and multifamily housing, and opportunities for medium-intensity residential development permitted in the SN designation, the sites have been identified as appropriate to accommodate moderate-income housing. Under the parcel’s existing zoning regulations, as of November 2021, there is an existing capacity of 89 moderate-income units in the SN designation (see current zoning details in Exhibit A).

However, all of these parcels will be rezoned, and a new total realistic capacity of 252 units on approximately 63 acres of vacant sites in the SN zone will be made available following adoption of the updated Zoning Ordinance as discussed in Program 37, of the Housing Element (see additional details in Section 5.2.2, Moderate-Income Deficit Addressed) and have been included in the Sites Inventory.

Table 7 provides a summary of all vacant sites in the SN designation identified in the Sites Inventory. The realistic capacity was calculated using a realistic residential development potential of 4 dwelling units per acre in the SN zone. See Figure 5, Suburban Neighborhood Sites, for an overview of sites identified in the SN land use designation. The vacant sites identified in Figure 5 are vacant sites that have been included in the Sites Inventory; it is not a comprehensive inventory of all vacant sites in the SN designation.

4.1.6 Neighborhood Center (NC)
The Neighborhood Center (NC) land use designation provides for areas with a variety of neighborhood- serving retail and commercial uses, housing of various types, other neighborhood-serving amenities, and community gathering spaces for residents at a density ranging between 10 and 20 dwelling units per acre. Approximately 138 acres of the City are in the NC designation. However, only vacant parcels greater than 0.5 acres or less than 10 acres have been included in the Sites Inventory. Based on the permitted densities and range of single-family and multifamily housing, neighborhood-serving amenities, and commercial uses permitted in the NC designation, the sites have been identified as appropriate to accommodate moderate-income housing. While the existing capacity on these sites under their current Zoning regulations is zero, the sites will be made available following adoption of the updated Zoning Code as included in Program 37, of the Housing Element (see additional details in Section 5.2.2, Moderate-Income Deficit Addressed) and have been included in the Sites Inventory.

Based on a realistic residential development potential of 10 dwelling units per acre in the NC zone, a total of 251 units on approximately 25 acres of vacant sites in the NC zone have been included in the Sites Inventory. Table 8 provides a summary of all vacant sites in the NC designation identified in the Sites Inventory. See Figure 6, Neighborhood Center Sites, for an overview of sites identified in the NC land use designation. The vacant sites identified in Figure 6 are vacant sites that have been included in the Sites Inventory; it is not a comprehensive inventory of all vacant sites in the NC designation.

4.1.7 Connected Neighborhood (CN)
The Connected Neighborhood (CN) land use designation provides a broad range of housing choices within a walkable neighborhood setting within a short distance of goods and services. Housing types include single-family detached and attached dwellings of various sizes, courtyard apartments and condos, and medium-sized multifamily buildings designed for neighborhood compatibility at a density of up to 20 dwelling units per acre. Approximately 1,270 acres of the City are in the CN designation.

However, only vacant sites greater than 0.5 acres or less than 10 acres have been included in the Sites Inventory. Based on the maximum allowed density and range of single-family and multifamily housing permitted in the CN designation, the sites have been identified as appropriate to accommodate moderate-income housing. Under the parcels existing Zoning regulations, as of November 2021, there is an existing capacity of 543 moderate-income units in the CN designation (see current zoning details in Exhibit A). However, all of these parcels will be rezoned and a new total realistic capacity of 1,076 units on approximately 77 acres of vacant sites in the CN zone will be made available following adoption of the updated Zoning Code as discussed in Program 37, of the Housing Element (see additional details in Section 5.2.2, Moderate-Income Deficit Addressed) and have been included in the Sites Inventory.

The realistic capacity was calculated using a realistic residential development potential of 14 dwelling units per acre in the CN zone. Table 9 provides a summary of all vacant sites in the CN designation identified in the Sites Inventory. See Figure 7, Connected Neighborhood Sites, for an overview of sites identified in the CN land use designation. The vacant sites identified in Figure 7 are vacant sites that have been included in the Sites Inventory; it is not a comprehensive inventory of all vacant sites in the CN designation.

4.1.8 Summary of Moderate-Income Sites
The Sites Inventory includes an existing capacity to accommodate 632 moderate-income units under the parcel’s existing Zoning regulations in the SN and CN designations. To accommodate the City’s 6th Cycle RHNA for moderate-income units and a buffer to ensure capacity throughout the Housing Element Period, the City will adopt an updated Zoning Ordinance by mid-2022 to create a new total realistic capacity of 1,579 moderate-income units in the SN, NC, and CN designations (see additional details in Section 5.2.2, Moderate-income Deficit Addressed).

Table 10 provides a summary of total residential capacity on vacant parcels identified within the SN, NC, and CN designations, which are anticipated to accommodate moderate-income units.

As of July 2021, there were an estimated 10,252 housing units in the pipeline that are counted toward meeting the RHNA. Of those units, 9,448 are projects with remaining entitlements that are counted toward meeting and exceeding the capacity needed to accommodate the above moderate-income RHNA of 3,534 units, as shown in Table 12, Projects in Indio with Remaining Entitlements. In addition, major redevelopment plans for the former Indio Fashion Mall located in the Midtown (MT) designation will expand the property to include the adjacent 20-acre parcel currently owned by the City and redevelop the site into the Indio Marketplace (Site 28M in Table 16). The Indio Marketplace will be a mixed-use project with an expected 400 above moderate-income residential units. The Indio Marketplace’s Design Review Application (21-04-486) for redevelopment was approved by the City’s Planning Commission on July 14, 2021 (Resolution Number 2001), and the project is expected to be completed by the developer/property manager, Haagen Company, during the planning period.

The Arroyo Crossing (Site 69N in Table 16) is an approved mixed-use project that will be located in the Mixed Use Neighborhood (MUN) designation located on two currently vacant parcels on the west side of Jefferson Street between Highway 111 and Avenue 48. The project is expected to be completed by the developer, Pacific West Communities Inc., during the planning period, and will provide a total of 400 mixed-income units in two phases, consisting of 41 extremely-low income units, 41 very low-income units, 314 low-income units, and 4 manager units. Phase I will provide 184 units, including 182 lower- income units and 2 manager units, on 6.7 acres at approximately 27 dwelling units per acre. Phase II will provide 216 units, including 214 lower-income units and 2 manager units on 7.3 acres at approximately 30 dwelling units per acre. The project will include two- and three-story residential apartment buildings with units ranging from one to three bedrooms. In addition, the project will include amenities such as a club and fitness room, pool, tot lot, dog park, and open space and recreational areas and will meet the

Phase I of the Arroyo Crossing project received Design Review entitlement approvals from the Planning Commission in March 2020 (Resolution No. 1925), and in May 2020, the City Council approved the project’s Tentative Parcel Map and Environmental Assessment (Resolution No. 10140 and 10141). In September 2021, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 10233 approving the issuance of tax-exempt revenue bonds by the California Municipal Finance Authority to provide financing for Arroyo Crossing Phase I. Phase I of the project will provide a mix of 22 studio units, 51 one-bedroom units, 56 two- bedroom units, and 55 three-bedroom units. The units will provide affordable housing for families earning up to 80 percent of the area median income for Riverside County, with an average affordability of just under 60 percent of the area median income, including 19 extremely low-income units, 19 very low-income units, and 144 low-income units. All units will be affordable for a 55-year period per recorded covenants.

In July 2021, the Planning Commission approved Phase II of the Arroyo Crossing project’s Design Review (Resolution No. 2000), and Environmental Assessment (Resolution No. 1999). In September 2021, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 10234 approving the issuance of tax-exempt revenue bonds by the California Municipal Finance Authority to provide financing for Arroyo Crossing Phase II. Phase II of the project will provide a mix of 106 one-bedroom units, 56 two-bedroom units, and 54 three-bedroom units. The units will provide affordable housing for families earning up to 80 percent of the area median income for Riverside County, with an average affordability of just under 60 percent of the area median income, including 22 extremely low-income units, 22 very low-income units, and 170 low-income units.

All units will be affordable for a 55-year period per recorded covenants.

There are a number of other projects in the City with residential units, such as single-unit developments, that have not been included in this Sites Analysis and Inventory but are expected to be completed during the planning period.

4.3 Accessory Dwelling Unit Projection
The Housing Element may satisfy its RHNA requirement through methods alternative to the identification of sites. One such methodology is through an analysis of the expected number of accessory dwelling units (ADUs) and junior accessory dwelling units (JADUs) to be developed within the planning period. The number of ADUs and JADUs that can be credited toward potential development must be based on the following factors:
• ADU and JADU development trends since January 2018
• Community need and demand for ADUs and JADUs
• Resources and incentives available to encourage their development • The availability of ADUs and JADUs for occupancy
• The anticipated affordability of ADUs and JADUs
Recent changes to legislation governing the development and provision of ADUs and JADUs have sparked growth in these units in cities across California, including Indio. ADU and JADU production is an ideal strategy for producing needed housing while capitalizing on existing infrastructure, such as water, sewer, and dry utilities. Additionally, this is often a strategy that is more easily accepted by stakeholders who may be resistant to change because these units provide a form of “unseen” density that is palatable to many.

From 2018 through 2020, 28 ADUs were permitted in the City. Table 13 details recent ADU and JADU development in the City.

Junior Accessory Dwelling Unit Development Trends

2018 10
2019 3

Source: City of Indio, 2020, Permit Listing Activity Report, 2018–2020.

Because ADU and JADU legislation has been revised several times since 2017, providing increased opportunities for the development of housing, it is expected that development trends will continue upward. To account for this increased potential, this Sites Analysis used the trends in ADU construction since January 2018 to estimate new production, which averages nine ADUs per year. However, this only accounts for the effect of new laws without local incentives, such as the ADU program identified as part of the Housing Element. As of July 2021, the City had permitted 12 ADUs in 2021. Based on the local incentives and ADU and JADU trends since January 2018, a conservative estimate of the number of units to be produced under this approach is 10 units each year during the planning period (June 30, 2021, to October 31, 2029), for a total of 84 units.

In addition to calculating the expected number of ADUs and JADUs to be developed within the planning period, the Sites Analysis must calculate the anticipated affordability of ADUs and JADUs to determine which RHNA income categories they should be counted toward. To facilitate the ADU affordability assumptions for jurisdictions, SCAG conducted the SCAG Regional Accessory Dwelling Unit Affordability

AGENDA ITEM #10.1
Revised Resolution No. 10254 re-approving the revised version of Housing... Page 1018 of 1245 Page | 32 City of Indio Appendix E: Sites Analysis and Inventory Analysis.4 As part of the analysis, SCAG conducted a survey of rents of 150 existing ADUs from April through June 2020. Efforts were made to reflect the geographic distribution, size, and other characteristics of ADUs across counties and subregions.

SCAG concluded that 22.7 percent of ADUs were affordable to very-low-income households. Based on these assumptions, of the total 84 ADUs that are projected to be built during the planning period, 19 are estimated to be affordable to very low-income households, 29 to low-income households, 29 to moderate-income households, and 7 to above moderate-income households. Table 14 shows the assumptions for ADU affordability based on the SCAG survey for San Bernardino and Riverside Counties.

ADU = accessory dwelling unit
In coordination with the updated policies and programs in the Housing Element and the City’s ongoing efforts to promote the development of ADUs and JADUs, it is likely that these units will be produced at a much higher rate. The programs of the Housing Element promote and incentivize the production of ADUs and JADUs.
5 Summary of Capacity to Accommodate the RHNA
The City of Indio is a growing community in the Coachella Valley of Riverside County. Although the City continues to grow, large amounts of vacant land remain with the possibility of providing new housing opportunities. There are also opportunities for ADUs and for the redevelopment of underutilized sites that do not have existing structures, have vacated uses, or have uses that are good candidates for recycling to residential or more-intense residential uses, are publicly owned, surplus land, meet density requirements, have an aging structure, and/or have an assessed improvement-to-land-value ratio or floor area ratio of less than 1. The identification of these sites, paired with the programs of the Housing Element, including , Program 11, Development Incentives and Programs, Program 33, Sites Inventory Zoning Update Program, and Program 37, Zoning Code Updates for the Removal of Constraints, will ensure that the City can realistically meet the RHNA targets at all income levels for the 6th Cycle, and provide additional sites for a generous buffer, ensuring that capacity remains throughout the 6th Cycle.

A site-by-site overview for all sites identified in Section 4.1, Capacity by Land Use Designation, is included in Table 16. The overview includes each parcel’s Assessor’s Parcel Number; acreage; land use designation; potential number of units under the realistic capacity assumptions; income level; and, if applicable, improvement-to-land-value ratio, age of building, and existing use.

5.1 Summary of Existing Capacity
Table 15 provides a summary of total residential capacity included in the final Sites Inventory compared to the City’s 6th Cycle RHNA. As shown in Table 15, the City has a total current capacity for 677 lower- income units, 661 moderate-income units, and 9,859 above moderate-income units within the 1) residential pipeline of projects credited toward the RHNA; 2) projected number of ADUs and JADUs; and 3) vacant and underutilized sites with existing capacity. Taking into account the City’s total capacity, the City has an existing capacity deficit of 2,286 lower-income units and 654 moderate-income units.

5.2 Summary of Capacity Under Updated Zoning Code

5.2.1 Lower-Income Shortfall Addressed
The City has a shortfall of 2,286 lower-income units for the 6th Cycle planning period. However, as previously mentioned, the City is in the process of updating its Zoning Code as of November 2021.

Through the Zoning Code update discussed in Program 33, Sites Inventory Zoning Update Program, of the Housing Element, the City’s zoning regulations will be brought into conformity with the Indio General Plan 2040. The updated zoning regulations, which will be adopted mid-2022, will implement the 2040 General Plan, including the allowed densities and uses.

The Sites Analysis included in this Appendix relied on the existing 2040 General Plan land use designations and densities, which will be consistent with the updated Zoning Code. As shown on Table 15, under the updated Zoning Code, the City will have an additional realistic capacity to accommodate 3,160 additional lower-income units, including extremely low-, very low-, and low-income units, in the MUN and MT designations (3,058 units on vacant sites and 102 units on underutilized site). See sites 15- 26 and 29-68 in Table 16, for individual site details identified in the MUN and MT designations. As part of Program 33 of the Housing Element, the City will ensure that the required shortfall of 2,286 units is accommodated and will have a total capacity to accommodate 3,837 lower-income units. The surplus of 874 units identified in the MUN and MT designations will provide a generous buffer of approximately 30 percent more capacity than required. Table II, Summary of Lower-Income Shortfall and Capacity, provides a summary of the current capacity, existing shortfall, additional capacity under the adopted Zoning Code update, and the final surplus/buffer for lower-income units.

In addition to creating additional lower-income capacity, the updated Zoning Code will create capacity for 1,579 moderate-income units on vacant sites in the SN, NC, and CN designations as shown on Table 15 (See sites 70-158Q in Table 16, for individual site details identified in the SN, NC, and CN designations). Some of the parcels identified to accommodate moderate-income units in the SN and CN designations currently allow residential development under the existing Zoning regulations (as shown in Exhibit A). Under their existing Zoning, there is a capacity of 632 moderate-income units. However, all of these parcels will be rezoned as part of the updated Zoning Code as detailed in Program 37, Zoning Code Updates for the Removal of Constraints, of the Housing Element, and the City will create the capacity to accommodate a new total of 1,579 moderate-income units on vacant sites in the SN, NC, and CN designations. Adding together the projected 29 moderate-income units from potential accessory dwelling units (see item 2, Accessory Dwelling Unit Potential, in Table III) and the 1,579 moderate- income units identified on vacant parcels under the adopted Zoning Code (see item 4, SN, NC, and CN Capacity Identified After Rezone, in Table III), the City will have a total capacity to accommodate 1,608 moderate-income units. The 1,608 units will not only accommodate the 1,315 moderate-income RHNA for the planning period, but they will also provide a surplus capacity of 293 moderate-income units to provide a generous buffer of approximately 22 percent more capacity than required. Table III. Summary of Moderate-Income Deficit and Capacity, provides a summary of the current capacity, existing deficit, new total capacity under the adopted Zoning Code update, and the final surplus/buffer for moderate- income units.

Table 15 provides a full summary of total residential capacity included in the final Sites Inventory, including the new total capacity following adoption of the Zoning Code update, compared to the City’s 6th Cycle RHNA.

Table 16, provides a site-by-site overview, including each parcel’s Assessor’s Parcel Number; acreage; land use designation; potential number of units under the realistic capacity assumptions; income level; and, if applicable, improvement-to-land-value ratio, age of building, and existing use. Sites denoted by a letter following their site number include two or more parcels that have been rendered suitable for consolidation into one site. See Exhibit A for additional site parcel details, including current and proposed zoning designations.
