7. OTHER REQUIREMENTS
CONSISTENCY WITH GENERAL PLAN
Government Code Section 65300. 5states: "In construing the provisions of this article, the Legislature intends that the general plan and elements and parts thereof comprise an integrated, internally consistent and compatible statement of policies for the adopting agency." Additionally, Government Code Section 65583 ( c)( 7) requires the identification of " means by which consistency will be achieved with other general plan elements and community goals." The Housing Element of a general plan sets out a city' soverall long- range planning strategy for providing housing for all segments of the community. The California Government Code requires general plans to contain an integrated, consistent set of goals and policies. The Housing Element is, therefore, affected by policies contained in other elements of a general plan.
The housing element is most intricately related to the land use element. The Land Use Element establishes the framework for development of housing by laying out the land use designations for residential development and indicating the type and density permitted by a city.
Working within this framework, the City of Lathrop' sHousing Element identifies priority goals, objectives, and program actions for the 2023-031 planning period that directly address the housing needs of Lathrop' s existing and future residents. The policies contained in other elements of the City' s General Plan affect many aspects of life that residents enjoy such as the amount and variety of open space; the preservation of natural, historic and cultural resources; permitted noise levels in residential areas; and the safety of the residents in the event of a natural or man-ade disaster. The Housing Element has been reviewed for consistency with the City' s other General Plan Elements and the policies and programs in this Element do not conflict with the policy direction contained in other parts of the General Plan. As portions of the General Plan are amended in the future, the Housing Element will be reviewed to ensure that internal consistency is maintained.
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER CITY PLANS AND POLICIES
The Housing Element identifies priority goals, objectives, policies, and action programs during the planning period that directly address the housing needs of Lathrop. The City' s other plans and policies including its Municipal Code, Zoning Code, Master Plan, and Specific Plans must all remain consistent with the Housing Element. As revisions are considered to the City' s Code
and various plans, each revision will be reviewed to ensure that no conflicts with the Housing Element occur.
PRIORITY FOR WATER AND SEWER
Per Chapter 727, Statues of 2004 ( SB 1087), upon completion of an amended or adopted housing element, a local government is responsible for immediately distributing a copy of the Element to area water and sewer providers. Water and sewer providers must grant priority for service allocations to proposed developments that include housing units affordable to lower -income households. As the responsible agency, the City of Lathrop will supply a copy of the adopted housing element to the Lathrop Public Works Department ( LPWD), as well as to all other water and sewer providers serving the City. The City is also preparing policy language to ensure that all lower income housing projects receive priority for water and sewer service, consistent with State law.
ENERGY CONSERVATION
Energy efficiency has direct application to affordable housing because the more money spent on energy, the less available for rent or mortgage payments. High energy costs have particularly detrimental effects on low- income households that do not have enough income or cash reserves to absorb cost increases and many times must choose between basic needs such as shelter, food, and energy.
CITY STANDARDS
The City has adopted and enforces the 2022 California Energy Code and the 2022 California Green Building Standards Code City of Lathrop I HBR- 198
519
2023-031 Housing Element Background Report
CALGreen). CALGreen has streamlined energy efficiency and conservation measures for jurisdictions throughout California.
CALGreen addresses energy efficiency through requiring compliance with Title 24 energy efficiency standards which address energy efficiency through appliances, air conditioning/ heating units, water heating systems, windows/ doors, insulation, roofing, lighting, solar -readiness, as well as requiring additional mandatory measures that address site development stormwater management), construction ( construction waste reduction/ recycling, pollution control,) and long- term use of the residence ( indoor water use, outdoor water use, building maintenance and operation, fireplaces, indoor air quality and exhaust, and interior moisture control). Single family and duplex developments are required to be wired for electric vehicle charging and the multifamily projects with 17 or more units must provide electric vehicle charging spaces. The 2022 CALGreen Code includes several amendments to the 2019 CALGreen Code, including new voluntary prerequisites for builders to choose from, such as battery storage system controls and heat pump space, and water heating, to encourage building electrification. The 2022 CALGreen Code went into effect Statewide on January 1, 2023.
Chapter 13. 08 of the Municipal Code establishes water conservation and rationing standards, including measures for water conservation and water restrictions. Section 17. 92. 060 of the Zoning Code establishes water conservation requirements for landscaping in new development.
Households benefit from increased energy efficiency and water conservation requirements as demand for electric, natural gas, and water is reduced which can result in reduced electric, natural gas, and water bills. The Housing Plan includes policies and actions to encourage energy efficiency and conservation in residential development.
ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS
Owners of existing housing can benefit from home improvements, such as window, door, and appliance replacement, increased insulation, and weatherization that reduce energy and water demand and thus reduce energy and water bills. Energy efficient programs include but are not limited to the following:
California Municipal Finance Authority Open PACE Program. The City participates in this program to ensure that loans and financing are available for residential and commercial property owners to make clean - energy and energy - efficient improvements to their homes. This program provides for deferred payments and can be used for extensive energy -efficiency and renewable energy improvements.
PG& E Energy Savings Assistance Program. This program provides qualified customers with energy -saving improvements at no charge. Energy -saving measures through the Energy Savings Assistance Program can include repairing or replacing appliances, including the refrigerator, furnace, or water heater, and installing insulation, weatherproofing, energy -efficient light bulbs, caulking, and low -flow showerheads. Participants must live in a home that is at least five years old and must meet household income requirements.
Rebate Programs. PG& E offers rebates for eligible appliances including clothes washers and gas, electric, or solar water heaters. Appliances eligible for rebates typically change annually.
Weatherization Program. San Joaquin County Weatherization Program administered through San Joaquin HSA provides home or duplex weatherization services such as: minor home repair, glass replacement, attic ventilation, low -flow showerheads, ceiling insulation, evaporative cooler vent cover, door weatherstripping, water heater blanket, duct wrap, switches & outlet gaskets, caulking, and other weatherstripping.

Dear Rick Caguiat:
RE: City of Lathrop' s6th Cycle ( 2023- 2031) Draft Housing Element GAVIN NEWSOM, Govemor
Thank you for submitting the City of Lathrop' s (City) draft housing element received for review on April 5, 2024. Pursuant to Government Code section 65585, the California Department of Housing and Community Development ( HCD) is reporting the results of its review. In addition, HCD considered comments from David Kellogg pursuant to Government Code section 65585, subdivision ( c).
The draft element addresses many statutory requirements; however, revisions will be necessary to substantially comply with State Housing Element Law ( Gov. Code, 65580 et seq). The enclosed Appendix describes the revisions needed to comply with State Housing Element Law.
As a reminder, the City' s 6th cycle housing element was due December 31, 2023. As of today, the City has not completed the housing element process for the 6th cycle. The City' s 5th cycle housing element no longer satisfies statutory requirements. HCD encourages the City to revise the element as described, adopt, and submit to HCD to regain housing element compliance.
For your information, pursuant to Assembly Bill 1398 ( Chapter 358, Statutes of 2021), as the City did not adopt a compliant housing element within 120 days of the statutory deadline ( December 31, 2023), the City must complete rezones to make prior identified sites available or accommodate a shortfall of the regional housing need allocation RHNA) no later than one year from the statutory deadline. Otherwise, the local government' s housing element will no longer comply with State Housing Element Law, and HCD may revoke its finding of substantial compliance pursuant to Government Code section 65585, subdivision ( i). Please be aware, if the City does not adopt a compliant housing element within one year from the statutory deadline, the element cannot be found in substantial compliance until all necessary rezones are completed pursuant to Government Code sections 65583, (c)( 1)( A) and 65583. 2, subdivision ( c). 557
Rick Caguiat, Director
Public participation in the development, adoption and implementation of the housing element is essential to effective housing planning. Throughout the housing element process, the City should continue to engage the community, including organizations that represent lower -income and special needs households, by making information regularly available and considering and incorporating comments where appropriate. Please be aware, any revisions to the element must be posted on the local government' s website
and to email a link to all individuals and organizations that have previously requested notices relating to the local government' shousing element at least seven days before submitting to HCD.
Several federal, state, and regional funding programs consider housing element compliance as an eligibility or ranking criteria. For example, the CalTrans Senate Bill SB) 1 Sustainable Communities grant, the Affordable Housing and Sustainable Communities program, and HCD' s Permanent Local Housing Allocation consider housing element compliance and/ or annual reporting requirements pursuant to Government Code section 65400. With a compliant housing element, the City will meet housing element requirements for these and other funding sources.
For your information, some general plan element updates are triggered by housing element adoption. HCD reminds the City to consider timing provisions and welcomes the opportunity to provide assistance. For information, please see the Technical Advisories issued by the Governor' sOffice of Planning and Research at:
https:// www. opr. ca. gov/ planninq/ general- plan/ guidelines. html.
We are committed to assisting the City in addressing all statutory requirements of State Housing Element Law. If you have any questions or need additional technical assistance, please contact Joanna Chang, of our staff, at Joanna. Chang@hcd. ca. gov.
Sincerely,
Paul McDougall
Senior Program Manager

APPENDIX
CITY OF LATHROP
The following changes are necessary to bring the City' s housing element into compliance with Article 10. 6 of the Government Code. Accompanying each recommended change, we cite the supporting section of the Government Code.
Housing element technical assistance information is available on HCD' s website at https:// www. hcd. ca. gov/ planning- and- community- development/ hcd- memos. Among other resources, the housing element section contains HCD' slatest technical assistance tool, Building Blocks for Effective Housing Elements (Building Blocks), available at blocks
https:// www. hcd. ca. gov/ planning- and- communitv- development/ housinq- elements/ buildingand includes the Government Code addressing State Housing Element Law and other resources.
A. Housing Needs, Resources, and Constraints
1. An inventory of land suitable and available for residential development, including vacant sites and sites having realistic and demonstrated potential for redevelopment during the planning period to meet the locality' shousing need for a designated income level, and an analysis of the relationship of zoning and public facilities and services to these sites.
Gov. Code, § 65583, subd. (a)( 3).)
Progress in Meeting the Regional Housing Needs AllocationRegional Housing Needs Allocation ( RHNA): The element notes that the City has 43 moderate income units and 2, 795 above moderate income units in the pipeline which equates to 2, 838 units.
However, Table 4- 1 (p. 91) reflects a pipeline of 2, 009 units. The element must reconcile this information and accurately report the number of units by income category as progress towards the RHNA.
Additionally, the element is crediting several pipeline projects towards the moderate and above -moderate RHNA. The element includes a listing of the project, number of units, status, and remaining steps. However, the element should analyze this information to demonstrate the likelihood that these units will be available during the planning period.
To demonstrate the availability of units within the planning period, the element could analyze infrastructure schedules, the City' s past completion rates on pipeline projects, outreach with developers, and should describe any expiration dates on entitlements, anticipated timelines for final approvals, and any remaining steps for projects to receive final entitlements.
Lastly, the City' s
RHNA may be reduced by the number of new units built since June 30, 2023; however, the element must describe the City' s methodology for assigning these units to the various income groups based on actual or anticipated sales price or rent level or other mechanisms ensuring affordability ( e.g., deed -restrictions).
City of Lathrop' s6t" Cycle Draft Housing Element Page 1 July 3, 2024
559
Realistic Capacity: The element notes that the City is assuming 80 percent of the maximum allowable density in multifamily zoning districts. However, this assumption does not appear to be supported by past multifamily trends as listed in Table 3- 19. For example, some recent multifamily developments appear to be 40- 60 percent of maximum allowable densities. Further, this analysis should incorporate the affordability of recent development. The element should either supplement the analysis with additional information related to multifamily and higher density projects or rescale assumptions based on recent multifamily trends.
Additionally, the element is assuming 50 percent of maximum densities on sites that allow 100 percent nonresidential uses ( p. 95). While the element indicates the City has made conservative assumptions, the element still should analyze the likelihood of residential development in zoning where 100 percent nonresidential uses are allowed.
The analysis should be based on factors such as development trends including nonresidential, performance standards requiring residential uses or other relevant factors such as enhanced policies and programs.
Suitability of Nonvacant Sites: The element is relying on nonvacant sites to accommodate a portion of the RHNA. The element notes that nonvacant sites include city -owned properties with temporary uses that will be redeveloped and sites with 1-2 residential units including mobilehomes that are 50 percent underutilized ( p. 96). The element includes a high- level statement that the City has seen redevelopment trends with these types of sites and existing uses. First, the element must clearly list any objective criteria used to identify sites including the actual values of the criteria in the inventory to relate it to the analysis and discuss how these factors are indicative of redevelopment potential. For example, while the element lists the existing uses in the sites inventory ( Appendix A), it did not quantify the degree of underutilization.
To facilitate an analysis demonstrating potential for additional development, the element should summarize past experiences converting existing uses to higher density residential development, include current market demand for the existing use, provide analysis of existing leases or contracts that would perpetuate the existing use or prevent additional residential development, include current information on development trends and market conditions in the City and relate those trends to the sites identified. For example, while the element provided few project examples, it provided no analysis demonstrating the applicability to existing uses in the sites inventory. The element should discuss the characteristics of those project examples (e.g., existing uses, zoning, affordability level, market area) and consider its applicability to the identified sites.
Additionally, if the element identifies sites with existing residential uses. Absent a replacement housing policy, these sites are not adequate sites to accommodate lower - income households. The replacement housing policy has the same requirements as set forth in Government Code section 65915, subdivision ( c), paragraph (3).
Lastly, while the element currently utilizes mostly vacant sites toward the lower -income RHNA, for future housing element submittals, if the housing element relies upon nonvacant sites to accommodate more than 50 percent of the RHNA for lower -income City of Lathrop' s6th Cycle Draft Housing Element Page 2 July 3, 2024
560
households, the housing element must demonstrate that the existing use is not an impediment to additional residential development in the planning period ( Gov. Code, 65583. 2, subd. (g)( 2).). This can be demonstrated by providing substantial evidence that the existing use is likely to be discontinued during the planning period ( Gov. Code, 65583. 2, subd. (g)( 2).).
Sites Identified from Prior Planning Periods: Sites identified in prior planning periods shall not be deemed adequate to accommodate the housing needs for lower -income households unless a program, meeting statutory requirements, requires rezoning within the timeframe specified in Government Code section 65583. 2(c). The element should clarify if sites were identified in prior planning periods and if so, which sites and add or modify a program pursuant to Government Code section 65583. 2(c). For more information on program requirements, please see HCD' s Housing Element Sites Inventory Guidebook at https:// www. hcd. ca. gov/ community- development/ housingelement/ housinq- element- memos/ doc/ sites inventory memo fina106102020. pdf.
Environmental Constraints: While the element included a broad discussion of general environmental constraints, it should discuss environmental constraints relative to identified sites and describe any other known environmental or other constraints ( e.g., shape, access, easements, conservation easements, Williamson Act contracts, military, airport and other compatibility, contamination) that could impact housing development on identified sites in the planning period.
Electronic Sites Inventory: Pursuant to Government Code section 65583. 3, subdivision b), the City must utilize standards, forms, and definitions adopted by HCD when preparing the sites inventory. Please see HCD' s housing element webpage at https:// www. hcd. ca. gov/ planning- and- community- development/ housinq- elements for a copy of the form and instructions. The City can reach out to HCD at sitesinventory hcd. ca. gov for technical assistance. Please note, upon adoption of the housing element, the City must submit an electronic version of the sites inventory with its adopted housing element to sitesinventorv( ahcd. ca. gov.
2. An analysis of potential and actual governmental constraints upon the maintenance, improvement, or development of housing for all income levels, including the types of housing identified in paragraph ( 1) of subdivision ( c), and for persons with disabilities as identified in the analysis pursuant to paragraph ( 7), including land use controls, building codes and their enforcement, site improvements, fees and other exactions required of developers, and local processing and permit procedures... (Gov. Code, § 65583, subd. a)( 5)-)
Land Use Controls: While the element includes a listing of all land use controls for most zones, it must include and analyze all development standards for the MU -RI zone including setback requirements. Lastly, the element should evaluate the City' sparking requirements as potential constraints to multifamily development. For example, the City appears to require greater than two spaces per unit for multifamily uses which impacts housing costs for smaller bedroom types ( e.g., studio and one bedroom). The analysis City of Lathrop' s6th Cycle Draft Housing Element Page 3 July 3, 2024
561
should address any impacts on cost, supply, housing cost and ability to achieve maximum densities and include programs to address identified constraints.
Local Processing and Permit Procedures: The element should address public comments on this revised draft submittal and discuss compliance with the Permit Streamlining Act and intersections with CEQA and timing requirements, including streamlining determinations and add or modify programs as appropriate.
Design Review: The element includes some general information regarding the design review process. However, a complete analysis must list and analyze all approval procedures and decision -making criteria. The evaluation should address the impacts of these decision - making criteria on housing supply, cost, and particularly approval certainty. The analysis may discuss how the City mitigates potential impacts such as pre -application reviews, guidelines or objective standards. Based on the outcomes of an analysis, the element must add or modify programs to address identified constraints.
Constraints on Housing for Persons with Disabilities ( Reasonable Accommodation):
The element briefly describes the City' sreasonable accommodation procedures and includes a program to update the process. However, the element should also describe the decision - making criteria, application requirements, approval findings, fees, and analyze any potential constraints on housing for persons with disabilities. Based on a complete analysis, the element should add or modify program( s) to address any potential constraints.
B. Housing Programs
1. Identify actions that will be taken to make sites available during the planning period with appropriate zoning and development standards and with services and facilities to accommodate that portion of the city' s or county' sshare of the regional housing need for each income level that could not be accommodated on sites identified in the inventory completed pursuant to paragraph ( 3) of subdivision ( a) without rezoning, and to comply with the requirements of Government Code section 65584. 09. Sites shall be identified as needed to facilitate and encourage the development of a variety of types of housing for all income levels, including multifamily rental housing, factory -built housing, mobilehomes, housing for agricultural employees, supportive housing, single -room occupancy units, emergency shelters, and transitional housing. ( Gov. Code, § 65583, subd. (c)( 1).)
As noted in Finding A1, the element does not include a complete site analysis, therefore, the adequacy of sites and zoning were not established. Based on the results of a complete sites inventory and analysis, the City may need to add or revise programs to address a shortfall of sites or zoning available to encourage a variety of housing types.
In addition, Program 12 ( Zoning Ordinance Amendments) should commit to incorporate a definition of emergency shelters in the zoning ordinance to comply with Government City of Lathrop' s
6th Cycle Draft Housing Element Page 4
July 3, 2024
562
Code section 65583( a)( 4)( C). For your information, the definition of emergency shelters includes other interim interventions, including but not limited to, navigation centers, bridge housing, and respite or recuperative care.
2. The Housing Element shall contain programs which assist in the development of adequate housing to meet the needs of extremely low-, very low-, low- and moderate - income households. ( Gov. Code, § 65583, subd. (c)( 2).) Farmworkers: The element includes some general commitments to address farmworkers including complying with the Employee Housing Act (EHA) and broader outreach efforts. However, given the importance of farmworkers and the local and regional needs, the element must include specific and significant actions to address the needs of farmworkers that are responsive to the analysis. The element should include a program that specifically addresses issues of substandard housing for farmworkers including applying for funding, establishing or expanding existing programs related to rehabilitation, outreach and technical assistance with employers, and additional support such as expediated permitting, flexible development standards, gap funding, fee waivers, and applying for state and federal funding.
3. Address and, where appropriate and legally possible, remove governmental and nongovernmental constraints to the maintenance, improvement, and development of housing, including housing for all income levels and housing for persons with disabilities. The program shall remove constraints to, and provide reasonable accommodations for housing designed for, intended for occupancy by, or with supportive services for, persons with disabilities. ( Gov. Code, § 65583, subd. (c)( 3).) As noted in Finding A2, the element requires a complete analysis of potential governmental constraints. Depending upon the results of that analysis, the City may need to revise or add programs and address and remove or mitigate any identified constraints.
4. Promote and affirmatively further fair housing opportunities and promote housing throughout the community or communities for all persons regardless of race, religion, sex, marital status, ancestry, national origin, color, familial status, or disability, and other characteristics... ( Gov. Code, § 65583, subd. (c)( 5).) While the element includes some programs to address affirmatively furthering fair housing ( AFFH), this generally does not address respond to the analysis and to the identified and prioritized contributing factors. Goals and actions must be significant and meaningful enough to overcome identified patterns and trends. Actions must have specific commitments, milestones, geographic targeting and metrics or numerical targets and, as appropriate, address housing mobility enhancement ( housing choices and affordability across geographies), new housing choices and affordability in relatively higher opportunity or income areas, place -based strategies for community preservation and revitalization, and displacement protection.

C. Public Participation
Local governments shall make a diligent effort to achieve public participation of all economic segments of the community in the development of the Housing Element, and the element shall describe this effort. (Gov. Code, § 65583, subd. (c)( 9).) While the element notes that public comments were collected and considered, it should also summarize the public comments and describe how they were considered and incorporated into the element.

CITY OF LATHROP
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 24- 18
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF LATHROP RECOMMENDING THAT THE CITY COUNCIL AMEND THE 2022 GENERAL PLAN TO REPLACE THE ADOPTED HOUSING ELEMENT WITH THE 6TH
CYCLE HOUSING ELEMENT
WHEREAS, Sections 65580 through 65589. 8ofthe California Government Code require each jurisdiction to regularly update its Housing Element in accordance with deadlines established by the State; and
WHEREAS, the City held a community workshop on April 25, 2023 to introduce the 6th Cycle Housing Element update effort to provide the community and interested agencies with an opportunity to identify priorities and concerns related to the provision of housing; and WHEREAS, the City made the Draft 6th Cycle Housing Element available for public review from February 12, 2024 through March 13, 2024; and WHEREAS, the City held public workshops on February 27, 2024 and February 29, 2024 to provide the community and interested parties with an opportunity to learn about the Draft 6th Cycle Housing Element and comment on the Draft 6th Cycle Housing Element; and WHEREAS, comments received on the Draft 6th Cycle Housing Element were summarized and addressed in the Draft Housing Element Update to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) for HCD for state -mandated review; WHEREAS, HCD identified revisions to the Draft 6th Cycle Housing Element that were necessary to comply with state law in a written letter dated July 3, 2024; and WHEREAS, proposed revisions were made to the Draft 6th Cycle Housing Element to address HCD' sfindings; and
WHEREAS, the Housing Element has been reviewed and analyzed by the City pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), it has determined that the 6th Cycle Housing Element is consistent with the 2022 General Plan and is within the scope ofthe final General Plan EIR ( SCH# 2021100139), that no further environmental review is required under CEQA Guidelines Section 15168( c)( 2), and pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15168( c)( 5), no further environmental documentation is required; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on December 18, 2024 regarding the Housing Element Update, including the changes requested by HCD, at which time all interested persons were given an opportunity to be heard; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has reviewed and considered all evidence submitted in connection with the Housing Element Update, including the staff report, public testimony, and all other documents and evidence that are part of the City administrative record for these actions; and,
Planning Commission Resolution 24- 18 Page 1 of 5
573
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission finds that the goals, policies, programs, and objectives contained in the 6th Cycle Housing Element, considered individually and cumulatively, do not adversely affect the internal consistency of the City of Lathrop General Plan; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has utilized its own independent judgment in considering the information contained in this resolution and attachments, in the staff report and attachments and other exhibits, and in written and oral testimony during the public hearing; and NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Lathrop Planning Commission, pursuant to the Lathrop Municipal Code, upon evidence in the staff report and project file, makes the following findings to support the CEQA documentation:
1. That the above recitals are true and correct.
2. That the Planning Commission does hereby find the Finding of Consistency attached to this Resolution as " Attachment 4" has been prepared and completed in compliance with CEQA.
3. The Planning Commission was presented with, and has independently reviewed and analyzed the General Plan EIR ( consisting of the General Plan Draft EIR dated May 2022 and the Final EIR dated August 2022) and other information in the record and has considered the information contained therein, including the written and oral comments received at the public hearings on the CEQA determination and the Project, prior to acting upon or approving the Project, and has found that the Finding of Consistency represents the independent judgment ofthe City of Lathrop (" City") as lead agency for the Project, and designates the Community Development Director, at 390 Towne Centre Drive, Lathrop, California, 95330, as the custodian of documents and record of proceedings on which the decision of the City is based.
4. The Planning Commission does hereby find that none of the conditions calling for preparation of a subsequent or supplemental EIR have occurred, specifically none of the following criteria described at CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 have occurred:
a. Substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require major revisions of the previous EIR or negative declaration due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects;
b. Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken which will require major revisions of the previous EIR or negative declaration due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; or
c. New information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the previous EIR was certified as complete or the negative declaration was adopted, shows any ofthe following:
Planning Commission Resolution 24- 18 Page 2 of 5
574
i. The project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous EIR or negative declaration;
ii. Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the previous EIR;
iii. Mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative; or
iv. Mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from those analyzed in the previous EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative.
5. The Planning Commission does hereby recommend and recognize that the 6th Cycle Housing Element is within the scope of the 2022 General Plan and the General Plan EIR, including the Addendum, and that no further environmental documents are required.
NOW, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT, the Lathrop Planning Commission, pursuant to the Lathrop Municipal Code, upon evidence in the staff report and project file, makes the following findings to support the recommendation of approval of the 6th Cycle Housing Element project, including approval of a resolution recommending to adopt the 6th Cycle Housing Element as revised to the City Council:
1. The proposed 6th Cycle Housing Element contains a thorough and adequate treatment ofhousing issues required to be addressed by State law and adequately addresses each ofthe HCD findings. The amendment to the 2022 General Plan will adopt the 6th Cycle Housing Element and will replace the 2019 Housing Element with the 6th Cycle Housing Element.
2. The proposed 6th Cycle Housing Element is internally consistent with the 2022 General Plan and is not a detriment to the public interest, health, safety, and welfare of the City.
3. The proposed 6th Cycle Housing Element has been prepared to substantially comply with State Housing Element Law and has been revised to address the findings identified by HCD in its letter dated July 3, 2024.
4. Based on substantial evidence provided in the Housing Element, including a Statewide housing crisis, strong demand for residential and mixed -use development in the City, historical regional and local development trends of underutilized sites, historical regional and local development trends of sites that allow non- residential uses, opportunities for streamlined infill development, unique site characteristics including low lot utilization, improvement -to -land value ratios, and relatively low improvement values, and a commitment from the City to implement programs that incentivize and promote the development of sites, including redevelopment or intensification of Planning Commission Resolution 24- 18 Page 3 of 5
575
underutilized sites and development of City -owned sites, the Planning Commission finds that the existing uses on the underutilized sites identified to accommodate the City' s
RHNA do not impede residential development during the period covered by the Housing Element, that the sites that allow non- residential uses are likely to accommodate a portion of the RHNA, and that the sites identified in the 6th Cycle Housing Element are anticipated to be available for development during the Housing Element period.
5. The proposed 6th Cycle Housing Element includes a wide variety of objectives, policies, and implementing programs designed to enhance the public health, safety, and welfare, including the goals, policies, and programs to support safe and decent housing, to maintain, rehabilitate, and preserve housing, to increase housing choice, to encourage the development of a variety of housing types and locations to meet the needs of all income levels and the needs of special needs populations, and to affirmatively further fair housing.
6. The 6th Cycle Housing Element project was prepared in accordance with the California Government Code and the California Environmental Quality Act.
7. The Planning Commission recommends that the Community Development Director be authorized to make minor modifications to the Housing Element to achieve certification and address comments provided by the Department of Housing and Community Development on this Housing Element, provided that the modifications would not exceed the total amount of development accommodated by the 2022 General Plan prior to revisions and would not result in new actions by the City that would require a General Fund commitment of $75, 000or greater.

The proposed project includes an amendment to the 2022 General Plan. The Project will replace the Housing Element of the 2022 General Plan with the 61h Cycle Housing Element Update.
The proposed project is within the scope of the adopted certified Environmental Impact Report for the Lathrop General Plan Update, SCH# 2021100139 ( General Plan EIR).
The certified General Plan EIR was completed in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act ( CEQA) and the State CEQA Guidelines. The above - described project has been evaluated under CEQA to determine whether changes in the project, circumstances, or information would trigger the need for any supplemental environmental documentation based on new or substantially more severe significant environmental impacts.
The General Plan EIR anticipated that subsequent activities would occur to implement the 2022 General Plan, including but not limited to, future Specific Plan approvals, Planned Unit Development approvals, Master Plan approvals, revisions to the Zoning Ordinance, and development plan approvals, such as tentative subdivision maps, variances, conditional use permits, and other land use permits.
The proposed project updates the Housing Element to address current requirements of State law and to remove inconsistencies between the 2022 General Plan and the Housing Element adopted in 2019. The proposed project updates the City' sinventory of residential sites to be consistent with the sites identified by the 2022 General Plan for residential and mixed use. The proposed project does not approve or entitle any development applications. The proposed project does not change the location or intensity of potential development in the City and would not result in environmental impacts beyond those disclosed in the General Plan EIR.
After a thorough factual evaluation, the City of Lathrop has determined that no further supplemental environmental review is required because: (1) the proposed project is consistent with the original project; (2) the proposed project implements the original project in order to bring the allowed densities, allowed uses, and sites designated for residential development identified in the Housing Element into consistency with the range of uses and density and intensity of development anticipated for the original project; (3) the proposed project does not propose substantial changes to the original 578
Finding of Consistency — 6th Cycle Housing Element
CEQA Guidelines Section 15168( c)( 2)
project; (4) the proposed project will not involve substantial changes with respect to the circumstances under which the original project was undertaken, which would require major revisions to the previously - certified EIR due to the involvement of new or substantially more severe significant impacts; and ( 5) no substantially important new information requiring new analysis of significant effects, mitigation, or alternatives is known that would require major revisions to the previously - certified EIR due to the proposed project.
The City finds that no further environmental documentation is required because all potentially significant effects ( a) have been analyzed adequately in the previously certified EIR pursuant to applicable standards, and ( b) have been avoided or mitigated to the extent feasible pursuant to the previously certified EIR. Therefore, in accordance with CEQA and CEQA Guidelines ( Section 15168( c)( 2)), the project is within the scope of the previously certified EIR; the EIR continues to be pertinent with considerable information value; and such General Plan amendments to update the Housing Element do not give rise to any new or substantially more severe significant effects, nor do they require any new mitigation measures or alternatives. Accordingly, no new environmental document is required.

ITEM 5. 3
CITY MANAGER' S REPORT
FEBRUARY 10, 2025 CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING
ITEM: OUT OF STATE TRAVEL APPROVAL FOR THE 2025
SAN JOAQUIN COUNCIL OF GOVERNMENTS ( SJCOG)
ONE VOICE TRIP
RECOMMENDATION: Council to Discuss and Consider Adopting a Resolution Authorizing Out of State Travel for the
2025 San Joaquin One Voice Trip to Washington,
D. C. from May 18- 22, 2025, and Approval of Related
Budget Amendment
BACKGROUND:
Over the past several years, City officials have participated in approximately nineteen ( 19) San Joaquin One Voice visits to Washington D. C., to promote jurisdictional projects and needs. This year, the conference will be held from May 18, 2025 through May 22, 2025.
State law requires Council approval for all out of state travel. Additionally, commencing with the FY 2012- 13 budget process, Council voted to eliminate the One Voice Trip expense from the City Council' s budget. The same was done for subsequent fiscal years. The travel funds were removed from the Council budget with the notion that if Council elected to have Councilmembers attend this event, a budget amendment would be required depending on the selected option.
The City Manager' stravel budget was kept unchanged; therefore, if Council elects to send the City Manager to attend this event, funds are available in the current budget. If Councilmembers are interested in attending, the following options are available for consideration.
Options Include Cost Budget
Amendment
1. Send 2 Council Members & City Manager Approx. $16, 200 Approx. $10, 800
