BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:

On February 7, 2024, the City Manager, acting as the Director of Emergency Services, proclaimed a Local State of Emergency in response to severe weather conditions that impacted the City of Lakeport.

Based on these findings, staff recommends that the City Council terminate the Local State of Emergency Meeting Date: 03/18/2025 Page 2 Agenda Item # IV.F.

STAFF REPORT
RE: 2024 Housing Element Annual Progress Report MEETING DATE: 3/18/2025 SUBMITTED BY: Victor Fernandez, Associate Planner
PURPOSE OF REPORT:  Information only  Discussion  Action Item WHAT IS BEING ASKED OF THE CITY COUNCIL/BOARD:

Pursuant to State Law, the City of Lakeport prepared an Annual Progress Report (APR) on housing production and the implementation of housing related programs and policies contained in the Sixth Cycle Housing Element (2019-2027), which was adopted by City Council on July 7, 2020. This is an information-only item for City Council to review and file.

Additionally, a presentation of this report was made to the Lakeport Planning Commission on March 12, 2024.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: Since 1969, California has required that all local governments (Cities and Counties) adequately plan to meet the housing needs of everyone in the community. California’s local governments meet this requirement by adopting housing plans (aka housing elements) as part of their General Plan (also required by the state).

General Plans serve as the local government’s blueprint for how the city and/or county will grow and develop and include seven elements: land use, transportation, conservation, noise, open space, safety, and housing.

Additionally, every city and county in the state of California is required to submit an Annual Progress Report (APR) on individual jurisdiction progress towards implementing the housing element of its General Plan. The report must be submitted to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) and the Governor's Office of Land Use and Climate Innovation on or before April 1st of each year. The 2024 APR consists of a spreadsheet template created by HCD to capture housing activity and City of Lakeport’s progress. The APR report includes the following tables:
• Annual building activity reports for new housing units. • Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) progress.
• Sites identified or rezoned to accommodate shortfall housing need and no net loss law. • Housing Element program implementation status.
• Commercial development bonus approved.
• Units rehabilitated, preserved and acquired for alternative adequate sites. • Above moderate-income units converted to moderate income. • Locally owned lands included in the Housing Element Sites inventory that have been sold, leased, or otherwise disposed of.
• Locally owned Surplus Sites.
• Student housing developed for lower income students for which a density bonus was granted.

In the 2024 reporting year, the City of Lakeport continued its efforts to meet its Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA).

A total of seven (7) new housing units were issued building permits in 2024, contributing to the City's overall housing production goals.

Housing Production Overview
New units permitted in 2024 included:
• Two (2) moderate-income units
• Five (5) above-moderate income units.

This represents an increase from 2023, when only one (1) unit was issued a building permit. On the following page is a summary of entitlements, building permits, and certificates of occupancy for the 2024 reporting year.

Meeting Date: March 18, 2025 Page 3 Agenda Item # VII.A.1. 391127.1
RHNA Progress and Remaining Need
To date, Lakeport has issued building permits for a total of 65 housing units, achieving approximately 49% of its total RHNA goal (132 units) for the 2019-2027 Housing Element cycle. • Extremely-Low Income Units: The City has not received applications that include extremely-low income units. At this time there are 16 units remaining.
• Very Low-Income Units: The City successfully exceeded its RHNA allocation for very low-income deed-restricted units (34 units permitted vs. 31 allocated). However, no additional very low-income units were issued building permits in 2024.
• Low-Income Units: With 17 out of 21 deed-restricted units completed, only four (4) units remain to meet the RHNA goal. No new low-income units were permitted in 2024. • Moderate-Income Units: Two (2) moderate-income units were added in 2024, bringing the total to six (6) units.

The City still needs 17 additional moderate-income units to meet its RHNA goal. • Above-Moderate Income Units: Five (5) above-moderate-income units were permitted in 2024, bringing the total to 10 units. The City still needs 49 additional units to meet its RHNA goal for this category.
