Description/Analysis
Issue Detail: The City’s 2021-2029 Housing Element is the City’s 8-year housing strategy. This ambitious plan includes goals, policies, and implementation programs to further incentivize and support housing production at all income levels in order to meet the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (“RHNA”) of 45,580 units by 2029 (Resolution No. 2021-0259). The Annual Progress Report is a State-mandated report that details the progress made during the prior year in meeting Housing Element goals.
The contents of the Annual Progress Report are specified in state law, and include detailed reporting on planning approvals, building permits, and Housing Element program implementation. Background on the methodology used to prepare the report can be found in Attachment 2-Background. A summary of progress made in overall housing production over time can be found in Attachment 3- 2025 Housing Production Summary. The 2025 Housing Element Annual Progress Report (Table B
File ID: 2026-00714 3/24/2026
and Table D) can be found in Attachment 4.
The 2025 housing production data shows that:
· Overall Production: The City produced 2,737 units in 2025, representing a 14.7% increase over 2024 (2,387 units). Production levels have rebounded and now exceed both 2023 and 2024 totals. This is approximately 48% of the 5,698 units that need to be built annually to meet the RHNA of 45,580 units over the eight-year planning period. Figure 1 in Attachment 3 shows total housing production in 2025 in comparison to past years. · Deed-Restricted Production: In 2025, the City produced 930 deed-restricted units affordable to extremely low-, very low-, low-, and moderate-income households, accounting for 34.0% of total production.
· Accessory Dwelling Unit Production: ADU production continued a steady increase in 2025 by 15.4% with 390 units permitted in 2025 and 338 in 2024. · Progress Towards Total 2021-2029 Regional Housing Needs Allocation: As of the 2025 reporting year, the City has made progress towards completing 29% of its total Regional Housing Needs Allocation.
Staff will provide an overview of the 2025 Housing Element Annual Progress Report as well as provide an update on affordable housing projects that received direct City investment, the status of those projects, and affordable housing projects in the pipeline. Details can be found in Attachment 5- Presentation.
Policy Considerations: The Housing Element Annual Progress Report tracks the City’s progress in implementing the 2021-2029 Housing Element and addressing Sacramento’s housing needs through policies and programs.
Economic Impacts: Access to affordable housing improves community members’ ability to improve their economic status, reduces poverty and homelessness, and promotes social integration. A strong and affordable housing environment is critical to the economic well-being and growth of Sacramento and its residents.
Environmental Considerations: This informational update is an administrative activity and is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), per Guidelines Section 15378(b)(5).
Sustainability: A sustainable community includes housing for current and future households of all income levels. The City’s Housing Element establishes goals, policies, and programs to encourage housing opportunities for all residents.
Commission/Committee Action: The Planning and Design Commission received the 2025 Housing
File ID: 2026-00714 3/24/2026
Element Annual Progress Report on March 12, 2026. The Commission provided the following comments and feedback to staff:
· Commissioners were supportive of work to-date and complementary to City staff who help make housing projects possible.
· A question was asked about the potential for a City funded revolving loan fund. o Staff responded, noting that there is limited existing funding for housing. Without a dedicated funding source, it would be challenging to establish one. · A commissioner asked to include information about existing rents in future reports. o Staff have added slides to Attachment 5-Presentation to address this.
Rationale for Recommendation: The Housing Element Annual Progress Report is required by the State of California to be completed on an annual basis.
Financial Considerations: None.

Background
The California Department of Housing and Community Development Annual Progress Report form requires jurisdictions to categorize reported housing units by income category from very low income to above moderate income, as well as identify whether the units are deed-restricted by income level. Income categories are based on a household’s income in relation to Sacramento County’s Area Median Income (AMI). Area median income (AMI) is defined as the midpoint of a specific area’s income distribution and is calculated on an annual basis by the Department of Housing and Urban Development. The Sacramento County Area Median Income for 2025 for a family is four is $120,8001.
Income Categorization Methodology
Units that are not deed-restricted are categorized using State Income Limits, dwelling unit size in square feet, and the average housing cost per square foot in 2025 for each zip code area in the City. State Income Limits are used to calculate maximum rents and sale prices for the different income categories for a household of 3 for for-sale housing product types and a household size of 2 for rental housing product types. By multiplying the dwelling unit size and the average cost per square foot, the monthly housing cost and level of affordability for the unit is estimated.

Attachment 3-2025 Housing Production Summary
*Note: In 2025, an additional 803 apartment units were rehabilitated and converted to deed-restricted units for a 30-year term at 2025 W. El Camino Avenue through the Capitol Area Development Authority’s Middle Income Program. The units are deed-restricted with the following minimum affordability breakdown: 10% at 60% of Area Median Income (AMI), 80% at 80% of AMI, and 10% at 120% of AMI. These units cannot count towards the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation progress as the units are not deed-restricted for 55 years. 4,853

H1. Review Mixed Income Housing Ordinance
The City shall evaluate the effectiveness of the Mixed Income Housing Ordinance (MIHO). The City shall conduct an economic feasibility study to guide any decisions on changes to the ordinance, including the consideration of a mandatory inclusionary housing component. In this evaluation of the ordinance, the City will engage a broad range of stakeholders to ensure a variety of voices and interests are heard and considered. Based on the findings of the evaluation and the study, the City shall consider amendments to the ordinance with the goal of increasing the amount of affordable housing built in the City while ensuring the requirements do not pose a constraint to overall housing production. • Timeframe: Initiate economic feasibility analysis in 2021, complete analysis by Spring 2022, and receive decision on ordinance from City Council by end of 2022.
• Responsible Department or Agency: Community Development; SHRA • Objective: Increase the number of affordable housing units throughout the City.
Complete Work began on the Mixed Income Housing Ordinance Review Project in late 2022. Following the conduction of robust stakeholder outreach and research, the City Council on December 9, 2025, voted to keep the current ordinance in place with no modifications.

Program H2. Housing Development Toolkit
The City shall use the Vacant Lot Registration Program data to map privately- owned vacant lots and screen them for parcels that could be appropriate for housing based on screening criteria. The City shall develop a web-based Housing Development Toolkit on the City’s website with a step-by-step process for owners identified through the Vacant Lot Registration Program and the Housing Element Land Inventory to evaluate their options for developing their site for housing. The website will walk through the development process and the incentives and programs currently being offered by the City or partner agencies. The Housing Development Toolkit will include resources to facilitate affordable housing developments on large sites, including the City’s processing of lot line adjustments and voluntary merger of parcels, and a zero-dollar impact fee for affordable housing units. The City shall develop and execute a Housing Development Toolkit outreach plan targeted at developers and owners of vacant Complete The City launched the Housing Development Toolkit webpage in September 2022. Staff conducted outreach with property
owners/renters in spring and summer 2023 by mailing nearly 2,000 postcards for properties most eligible for housing development.
In 2025, the City launched a Housing Development Toolkit Map which was developed as a resource for the development community to aid in project siting and predevelopment.
The City continues to keep the Housing Development Toolkit updated to reflect new legislation and resources created by staff.

lots with a specific focus on the City’s most underserved areas. The City shall review the effectiveness of this program annually with the City’s Housing Policy Working Group and suggest changes, as necessary.
• Timeframe: 2021-2022
• Responsible Department or Agency: Community Development • Objective: Assist in the development of market rate and affordable housing by providing information and tools to property owners of sites appropriate for housing. Facilitate the development of affordable housing on large sites.
Program H3. Establish New Sources of Funding for Affordable Housing Working with the Housing Policy Working Group (HPWG) and other stakeholders, City staff shall explore new funding sources for affordable housing with the City Council.
Potential sources of funding could include but not be limited to the following:
- An increased Housing Trust Fund fee for specific uses; - Ensuring 20 percent of revenue from an Enhanced Infrastructure Financing District (EIFD) be set-aside for affordable housing; - Dedicating Property Transfer Tax revenues received in excess of the approved budget at year-end to affordable housing or infrastructure to support infill housing; and
- An affordable housing bond.
• Timeframe: Starting in 2021, explore funding sources annually during the City’s budget review and approval process.
• Responsible Department or Agency: Office of Innovation and Economic Development (primary); Finance Department; Community Development; SHRA
• Objective: Increase available funding to construct affordable housing throughout the City.
Continuous In 2022, a new Affordable Housing Project Fund was created by redirecting unobligated funds that were previously identified to support the Comprehensive Siting Plan. The total amount of money transferred to the new fund was $20,526,213. This fund was used to commit funding in support of six unique projects, totaling 659 new construction extremely-low to low income units and, 729 to 759 new construction and repair.
The Sacramento Public Finance Authority initiated the process to expand the existing Stadium Railyards Enhanced Infrastructure Financing District (EIFD) in the Railyards to include all of the Railyards, staff brought forth this item to Council in June 2025 but will return to finalize the establishment of the EIFD in mid-2026.
In 2025, work on a Stockton Blvd EIFD began with conversations with the County. Ultimately work on the Stockton Blvd EIFD was halted due to the City’s current budget deficit.
In December 2023, the Law and Legislation Committee of the City Council directed staff to conduct voter polling for a potential tax on vacant parcels and fully vacant commercial and mixed-use buildings, revenues from which could be used to support affordable housing.
Polling results found that voters were not supportive of the tax. The City

will consider bringing back this proposal at a time when voter moods are less pessimistic and more supportive of a tax.
In 2024, the City deployed its $2.5M of Round 1 Prohousing Incentive Pilot funds that were awarded in May 2023. These funds were used to support the development of the San Juan apartments, which will provide 113 units of affordable housing. The City intends to apply for Round 4 of Prohousing Incentive Program funding in 2026. Awards are expected to be made in June 2026.
City staff have worked in partnership with developers to support Affordable Housing Sustainable Communities (AHSC) grant applications for competitive projects throughout the City. In 2023, the City supported BRIDGE Housing’s 440 Arden Way project that was awarded $42.9M in round 7 funding. This project will provide an additional 122 units of affordable housing. In 2024, the City supported CADA/Mutual’s project at 16th and T which will provide 134 affordable units. The project was awarded $38.2M of round 8 funding in August of 2024. In 2025, the City supported 2 affordable housing projects that were awarded AHSC round 9 funding, CHW’s I Street Apartments and AMCAL’s Clover Apartments.
Between these two projects 432 units of affordable housing will be supported with $82M of AHSC funding.
The City is continually seeking new sources of funding to support the development of affordable housing.

The City shall develop and execute an ADU outreach plan. Outreach activities could include distributing website information, ADU tours, and educational workshops/open houses.
• Timeframe: 2021-2022
• Responsible Department or Agency: Community Development • Objective: Increased education and awareness of ADUs to encourage the construction of this more affordable housing type throughout the City Complete City staff promoted the ADU Resource Center materials at two Citywide ADU Resource Fairs in June of 2023 which received excellent participation. The fairs included presentations by City staff, lenders, and ADU experts, and allowed participants to meet with city staff ADU providers to ask questions about the ADU process. In 2023, City staff also participated in a joint neighborhood association meeting for the Newtown Booth and Midtown Neighborhood Associations and a Citywide Missing Middle Housing outreach event to present our ADU Resource Center materials.
City staff continue to attend yearly events led by industry organizations to advertise ADU resources and provide additional support.
Program H6. Permit-Ready ADU Plans
The City shall develop permit ready design plans for City of Sacramento residents that will be ADA accessible and vary in square footage to accommodate a variety of ADU options.
• Timeframe: 2021-2022
• Responsible Department or Agency: Community Development • Objective: At least 175 homeowners utilizing permit ready plans to build ADUs by 2029.
Complete The City released shelf ready ADU plans in January 2023. These plans are free to City of Sacramento residents and consist of 3 models: Studio, 1- bed, & 2-bed options. All models are ADA accessible and are under 750 sq. ft. to be exempt from impact fees.
In January 2026, the City released updates to the plans to provide additional flexibility, reduce construction costs, and support more efficient project delivery. The following options are now permitted in each model:
• Optional ductless mini-split systems
Shelf ready plans may now include ductless mini-split heating and cooling systems as an alternative to fully ducted systems.
Mini-splits are typically easier to install, can be lower in cost, and offer flexibility for projects with limited space or site constraints. • Optional premanufactured roof trusses
Plans now allow for the use of premanufactured roof trusses.
This option can reduce framing labor requirements and help shorten construction timelines.

These updates are intended to make shelf ready plans more adaptable to real-world construction conditions while maintaining applicable building and safety standards.
As of January 1, 2026, 31 ADUs have been constructed and 21 permits have been issued using the shelf ready plans.
Program H7. Develop a Web-based Land Inventory
The City shall develop and maintain a web-based inventory of housing element sites that is updated monthly to identify sites appropriate for housing and provide an overlay of the State’s High Opportunity Areas as defined by the State’s Housing Departments such as the Treasurer or Department of Housing and Community Development. The inventory will also track remaining capacity to meet the RHNA in compliance with no-net loss requirements to maintain adequate capacity for lower- and moderate-income housing throughout the Housing Element Planning Period. The inventory will also highlight surplus City- owned sites and other public lands that would be appropriate for affordable housing.
• Timeframe: Develop web-based sites inventory in 2021; maintain regularly through ongoing updates.
• Responsible Department or Agency: Community Development; Office of Innovation and Economic Development
• Objective: Assist in the development of housing by providing information on land availability. Ensure transparency in the maintenance of adequate sites throughout the Housing Element Planning Period.
Complete The City released an online web-based land inventory in February 2022.
The web map includes the adopted housing element sites inventory layer and will be updated to identify sites as “available” or “not available”. This layer is also used to update a summary dashboard that identifies the amount of capacity remaining in each income category. The web-based land inventory also includes sites identified by public agencies that may be suitable for future housing development. These agencies currently include the City of Sacramento, Redevelopment Agency of the City of Sacramento (RASA), Sacramento Housing and Redevelopment Agency, and Sacramento Regional Transit.
Program H8. Revisions to Parking Requirements
The City shall consider further eliminating City-mandated parking minimums and explore instituting parking maximums along established transit corridors.
Analysis, community outreach, and coordination with the City’s Parking Services Division will be initiated in 2021. Recommended revisions to the Planning and Development Code’s parking regulations to be presented to City Council for consideration in 2022.
In Progress Minimum parking requirements were ended by General Plan policy LUP-
4.14: Elimination of Vehicle Parking Minimums. Staff prepared an ordinance to make associated revisions to the City Code, which Council adopted in spring 2025. Staff have drafted a Parking Strategy to guide consideration of expanding parking maximums, increasing bicycle parking requirements, and preparing a parking management toolkit. The City created two working groups, one focused on residential areas and City Council final approval

one focused on commercial, industrial, and mixed-use areas. The project team held four community workshops to guide the strategy. The City is finalizing the Parking Strategy and will bring implementing ordinances to the City Council for consideration in spring 2026.
Program H9. Facilitate Appropriate Development through Specific Plans and Commercial Corridor Action Plans
The City shall prepare specific plans and action plans in infill areas and along commercial corridors that have been historically underserved, as described in the 2040 General Plan Update and have been targeted for development that considers the needs and desires of the neighborhood in which it is located (e.g., Stockton Blvd, Del Paso/Marysville Blvd). The City shall work to conduct neighborhood-level planning with residents to develop customized engagement and investment strategies that ensure meaningful and equitable participation and anti-displacement solutions in areas targeted for inclusive economic and community development. Infrastructure and California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) analysis should be included in Specific Plans to facilitate and reduce the length and cost of the development review process.
• Timeframe: Initiate one specific plan or action plan every 1-2 years during the planning period, starting in 2021 with the Stockton Blvd Plan. • Responsible Department or Agency: Community Development • Objective: Facilitate infill housing through the development of specific plans, increase the quality of life and economic growth of people, businesses, and places in Sacramento’s historically disenfranchised and disinvested neighborhoods, and affirmatively further fair housing.
Continuous (Complete) Since the Stockton Blvd Plan kicked off in 2020, City staff and Council have focused efforts on developing housing along the corridor.
The Stockton Blvd Plan was adopted in October 2024. The City’s focus on this corridor has resulted in more than 1,700 dwelling units in pre- application, application, or development since 2020.
(Complete) The Marysville/Del Paso Action Plan (Forward Together) was adopted by City Council in April 2024. This action plan includes a variety of strategies developed by the community including a focus on facilitating housing development along the corridor. Follow up actions have included providing grants and seeking grants to help streamline development, including winning a Green Means Go grant to update sewer infrastructure along Del Paso Blvd (described further in Program H10).
The City began updating the River District Specific Plan, starting with hiring a consultant team in February 2024. This update will include reviewing impediments to housing development such as infrastructure and improvements to the roadway network. The public review draft is anticipated to be released in mid 2026.
In 2025, the City began updating the Central City Specific Plan, which will include reviewing the fee nexus study, incorporating updates to the street network, and addressing policies and implementation measures.
The City anticipates scoping a plan for the Robla neighborhood to understand what can be done to address development needs in that

area. Staff have begun working on a scoping memo that will capture the history of the area as well as concerns and issues that may be able to be addressed through planning efforts.
Program H10. Targeted Infill Infrastructure Strategies
The City shall leverage available State and federal funding sources to conduct infrastructure analyses and targeted studies to understand existing capacity and conditions in infill areas and along commercial corridors of the City that are being prioritized for inclusive economic and community development. The City shall identify area-specific infrastructure improvements and prepare local area finance plans as feasible, to lower construction costs and catalyze development in targeted areas. These finance plans will be prioritized in areas that have been historically underserved and are identified in the Housing Element land inventory to provide opportunities for investments that lead to more equitable quality of life throughout the City. The City was awarded $750,000 in 2021 from the California Department of Housing and Community Development’s (HCD’s) Local Early Application Planning grant program to conduct stormwater drainage basin modeling for priority infill areas and housing element site inventory locations.
This infrastructure study will be completed by the end 2023. • Timeframe: Begin conducting infrastructure analyses in 2021 and begin preparation of local area finance plans in 2023.
• Responsible Department or Agency: Community Development (primary); Public Works; Office of Innovation and Economic Development • Objective: Remove barriers for development in infill areas and along commercial corridors of the City that are being prioritized for inclusive economic and community development by preparing infrastructure finance strategies as needed in target areas through 2029.
Completed Because of efficiencies with the consultant and staff work on the LEAP grant contract, additional drainage basins were included for stormwater modeling. The work was completed in October 2023. The data was used to update the housing development toolkit so that developers will have access to this vital information in order to streamline development. The updated housing development toolkit is in beta testing and is anticipated to be shared more widely in the first quarter of 2025.
In the Fall of 2022, the Sacramento Area Council of Governments’ (SACOG) launched the 2022 Green Means Go grant program to provide underground infrastructure funding for priority infill housing development areas (Green Zones). In October 2022, awarded $2 million to a joint City/County request to improve infrastructure for the San Juan Motel affordable housing site located on Stockton Blvd. In October 2022, the City applied for an additional $19 million worth of grant funding through the 2022 Green Mean Go grant program. On March 16, 2023, the SACOG Board awarded the City with over $13 million in funding for the applied projects, including significant infrastructure projects in Lavendar Heights, the River District, and along Del Paso Blvd. Because of the 2024/25 California State Budget, the Green Means Go funding was reduced by 6 percent from the original awards. However, the City reallocated some funding in order to be able to proceed with the needed improvements. As of now, the City/County has finished the water improvements for the San Juan Motel site. The Lavender Heights Water Main Project is currently in the final stages of pre-construction. Navajo Pipelines was awarded the design-assist contract and will be the contractor for the project. Construction is expected to start in March/April 2025 and be completed in December 2025. The Del Paso Infrastructure Needs Project will be bid in early 2025 for construction in

The City shall collect data to review the effectiveness of the current ordinance and consider changes that would strengthen the effectiveness of the current ordinance. • Timeframe: Outreach and data collection of the Sacramento Tenant Protection Act is ongoing and will continue through the life of the programs. Revisions to the existing ordinance will be considered prior to the current sunset date of December 31, 2024. Responsible Department or Agency: Community Development
• Objective: Continue to protect tenants who have resided in a rental unit for more than 12 months by maintaining limits on rent increases and prohibiting evictions without “just cause”, while providing landlords with a fair and reasonable return on their investment through a petition and hearing process.
Continuous In 2025, the Tenant Protection Program (TPP) mailed approximately 7,878 rental property registry packets to property owners, of which 5,242 packets were returned.
During the year, TPP opened a total of 48 complaint cases, including 29 termination of tenancy complaints and 19 rent increase complaints. The program issued 31 Notices of Alleged Violation, with 29 cases achieving compliance and 2 cases referred to Code Enforcement.

Program H29. Financial Assistance for Affordable ADUs
The City shall identify potential funding sources and community partners to develop and implement a financial assistance program that would provide loans and/or grants to encourage homeowners to construct an ADU with an agreement to charge rents affordable for lower income households or rent the ADU to Housing Choice Voucher participants.
• Timeframe: 2025
• Responsible Department or Agency: Community Development (primary); Office of Innovation and Economic Development, Treasurer’s Office
• Objective: Finance at least 70 ADUs by 2029. Ensure that financial assistance is distributed throughout the City, particularly in areas of high opportunity.
In Progress The City has conducted research on this effort but has not yet identified funding or financial partners to support the implementation of a program. Staff will continue to research ways to successfully implement a program.
Program H30. Regional Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing The City shall continue to participate in a regional collaborative approach to analyzing and addressing fair housing issues through the five-year review and update of the regional Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice. The City shall take affirmative actions to further fair housing choice in the City by implementing the solutions developed in the Regional Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI) to mitigate and/or remove fair housing impediments. • Timeframe: 2025
• Responsible Department or Agency: SHRA (primary); Community Development (primary)
• Objective: Assess the City’s efforts at reducing housing discrimination and enforcing fair housing laws, and advance equity in housing opportunities throughout the region.
Completed
SHRA continues to take affirmative actions to further fair housing choice in the City by implementing the Renter’s Helpline (RHL) and coordinating with Legal Services of Northern California (LSNC). On February 9, 2023, HUD published in the Federal Register a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) entitled “Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing”, which would have required the development of an Equity Plan, similar to the Analysis of Impediments. That proposed rule was withdrawn on January 16, 2025 (90 FR 4686). Thus, the rule currently in effect is the 2021 interim final rule published on June 10, 2021, which requires grantees of HUD funding to certify that they will affirmatively further fair housing in connection with their Consolidated Plans, Annual Action Plans, and PHA plan, and creates a voluntary fair housing planning process. A 2025 interim rule is currently in draft form and accepted public comment in May 2025 which would repeal the 2021 interim final rule, including any parts of the 2015 AFFH Rule and the 1994 AI requirements and returns to a general commitment that grantees will take active steps to promote fair housing. Grantee AFFH certifications will be deemed sufficient provided they took any action during the relevant period rationally

related to promoting fair housing, such as helping to eliminate housing discrimination.
Program H31. Monitor Status of Flood Protection Improvements and Impact on Meeting the RHNA
The City shall monitor the status of flood protection improvements in the Natomas Basin planned for 2025 and the associated residential cap on building permits in the Natomas Basin (i.e., 1,000 single units and 500 multi-units per calendar year). If the residential building permit cap would impact the City’s ability to meet the lower-income RHNA, the City will take action to eliminate the potential impact or will ensure that adequate sites are available, or made available, in other areas of the City.
• Timeframe: Monitor residential building permits annually; make determination of impact on ability to meet lower-income RHNA in 2025, and take action to eliminate impact or identify replacement sites by the end of calendar year 2025.
• Responsible Department or Agency: Community Development • Objective: Ensure the City has adequate capacity to meet the lower- income RHNA.
In Progress While substantial progress has been made towards completing improvements to achieve a 200 year level of flood protection before December 31, 2025, construction delays affected levee and pump station improvements in the Natomas and Beach Lake subarea. Senate Bill 639 was passed in October 2025 which extends the timeframe for completion of the improvements to December 31, 2030.
The Housing Element sites inventory contains capacity for over 4,000 units of lower income housing and over 2,500 of moderate-income housing in vacant and underutilized sites and approved projects in this area of the City. Per the City’s Floodplain Management Regulations (15.104.065 Zone A99 regulations), for the calendar year 2026, the allowed number of permits to be issued for single unit dwellings is 4,428, and the allowed number of permits to be issued for multi-unit dwellings is 2,564. These caps are well in excess of the amount of recent development activity and projected development activity for the calendar year 2026. Thus, the cap on residential building permits will not affect the City’s ability to meet the lower income RHNA. The City will continue to monitor the status of flood protection improvements in the Natomas Basin.

Community Development Updates:
(Complete) The City is used Local Early Application Planning (LEAP) grant funding to analyze and model stormwater drainage in key housing areas.
This will allow appropriate planning to solve these issues and/or price the future solutions correctly. This data was also added into the Housing Development Toolkit (H2) to provide this helpful data to vacant lot owners or developers.
The Stockton Blvd Plan included a study of infrastructure deficiencies and costs to resolve them as well as the exploration of an enhanced infrastructure financing district to fund some of the necessary improvements.
In the Fall of 2022, the Sacramento Area Council of Governments’ (SACOG) launched the 2022 Green Means Go grant program to provide underground infrastructure funding for priority infill housing development areas (Green Zones). In October 2022, awarded $2 million to a joint City/County request to improve infrastructure for the San Juan Motel affordable housing site located on Stockton Blvd. In October 2022, the City applied for an additional $19 million worth of grant funding through the 2022 Green Mean Go grant program. On March 16, 2023, the SACOG Board awarded the City with over $13 million in funding for the applied projects, including significant infrastructure projects in the River District, along Del Paso Blvd, and in Lavender Heights.
Because of the 2024/25 California State Budget, the Green Means Go funding was reduced by 6 percent from the original awards. However, the City reallocated some funding in order to be able to proceed with the needed improvements. As of now, the City/County has finished the water improvements for the San Juan Motel site.

In Summer 2025, the City hired a contractor to construct Del Paso Infrastructure Needs Project and construction is anticipated to be complete by Summer 2026. The project to improve City drainage pump station, Sump 111, in the River District was studied and found to be infeasible without first upsizing the drainage trunk line that leads to the site. The City is currently working with SACOG to modify the project, as described under “Utilities Updates”.
The City released a request for proposals (RFP) for the River District Specific Plan update in March 2023 and approved a consultant contract for the River District Specific Plan in February 2024. As part of this work, the City will study how best to lower construction costs and catalyze development in this area. This scope of work will include an updated finance plan for the River District.
Utilities Updates:
The following 3 projects are projects awarded through the Green Means Go program. Each of these grants were reduced by 6% after award. The Green Means Go funding program aims to catalyze infill development that improves housing affordability through non-transportation infrastructure and planning activities in locally adopted Green Zones. The funds are being used to pay for infrastructure improvements and studies, such as drainage facilities, water line extensions, sewer basin capacity analyses, and drainage studies aimed at removing impediments to residential development.

The model will include additional flood control measures that have been added to the basin since 1995 and will be completed in compliance with Federal Emergency Management Agency requirements. The second step is a flood control project that consists of the construction of a 12 cubic feet per second (cfs) pump station at Center Parkway near Florin Creek and an approximately 24-inch pipe in Center Parkway from Pomegranate Avenue to the pump station. This pump station and pipe would reduce flooding in the Pomegranate Avenue area and remove the remaining structures from the 100-year floodplain.
The project scope was required to pivot direction from the originally planned pump station, to a detention basin after the City was unable to acquire the required pump station property. Using an updated hydraulic model, the City evaluated alternatives and proposed a detention basin on 1.25-acre surplus parcel owned by St. Luke’s Lutheran Church as the most cost-effective solution to meet flood protection goals. Surveying, platting, and appraisals have been completed, and the Church board has approved the property sale. The projects design and contract documents will be finalized for bid once property transfer is recorded.
Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities Program Grant: BRIC (Beach Lake N. Levee Project) $3.2M (In Progress)
The project will mitigate flooding of 5 interchanges and 3.9 miles of Interstate 5 (I-5), a runway at Sacramento Executive Airport, surface streets, drainage pumps, water, and sewer facilities, and 27,000 housing units in South Sacramento. Flood protection will increase from events more frequent than the 100-year event to at least the 200-year event.
This will be accomplished by raising approximately 4 miles of the north Morrison Creek and Beach Lake levee, including raising or installing sections of floodwall, improving levee sections, building a 750- linear- Attachment 4-2024 Housing Element Annual Progress Report (Table B and Table D) Program Language

foot seepage berm, relocating a pump station, installing turf- reinforcement geotextile fabric along the waterside of the levee, and incorporating a riparian woodland barrier to protect against wave erosion and provide resiliency.
Phase 1 will include engineering and design. Current design is at 35% and the SAFCA will increase design and specifications for the 95% and 100% design. SAFCA will coordinate with Central Valley Flood Protection Board and the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) to acquire all necessary permits. In addition, the SAFCA will meet with FEMA to discuss NEPA compliance and coordination with USACE for the levee improvements. There will be no ground disturbing activities or alteration to structures during Phase 1 of the project; if the scope of work changes to include these actions, additional environmental review will be required.
Project is funded through design only. Desired outcomes when complete are 100% design plans, bid package and environmental review.

Program H47. Preserve Existing Supply of Affordable Housing The Sacramento Housing and Redevelopment Agency (SHRA) shall track expiring subsidy contracts and regulatory agreements on regulated affordable housing.
SHRA will prioritize multifamily lending such that preserving affordable housing at risk of converting to market rate comes first when funding is available. SHRA will ensure that owners have complied with Government Code Sections 65863.10, 65863.11, and 65863.13 before releasing regulatory agreements or approving ownership transfers for projects affiliated with SHRA. In addition, at least annually, SHRA will review the list of properties with expiring regulatory agreements and contact owners whose properties’ restrictions will expire within the following 36 months. SHRA will coordinate with qualified entities upon initial noticing and pursue and support applications for funding. To maximize tenant protections, SHRA will offer coordination assistance – developer outreach for owners planning to sell and tenant education for owners planning to allow their restrictions to expire. In addition, the City will ensure compliance with the “no net loss” provisions of the adopted Housing Authority Repositioning Strategy, ensuring that, during rehabilitation and revitalization of public housing properties, there is no net loss of units affordable to extremely low-income families.
• Timeframe: SHRA will track expiring subsidy contracts on an ongoing basis and will conduct an annual review.
• Responsible Department or Agency: SHRA
• Objective: Preserve as many units as possible that are “at risk” of conversion and minimize loss of affordable housing inventory by Continuous SHRA continues to transition its public housing portfolio to the Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) Program. Construction on Big Trees, Pine Knoll and Riverview Plaza are now complete and SHRA has ensured that the no net loss compliance is maintained. SHRA monitors expiring subsidy contracts and regulatory agreements of affordable housing. In 2025, the owner of Woodbridge Apartments contacted SHRA regarding an expiring rental subsidy contract. SHRA proactively reached out to various affordable housing developers to see if they were interested in acquiring the property to maintain the affordability.

Program H48. Rental Home Inspection Program The City shall continue to implement the citywide Rental Housing Inspection Program (RHIP) where building inspectors inspect rental properties for interior and exterior to ensure compliance with building codes and safe, sanitary and habitable conditions and issue corrective notices. The City shall track and report annually on the number of units inspected, the number of violations, and the actions taken on those violations in order to ensure the effectiveness of the program. The City shall work with community-based organizations to provide culturally competent education to both tenants and landlords to better understand the program. • Timeframe: Continue ongoing implementation of the program; expand annual reporting metrics starting in 2022
• Responsible Department or Agency: Community Development • Objective: Conduct inspections annually to ensure sanitary and habitable conditions throughout the City and improve education and outreach.
Continuous The Rental Housing Inspection Program, entering its 17th year, continues to inspect newly registered rental properties and perform random audit inspections of existing, self-certified rental properties. 3,116 rental units were inspected in 2025. 1,861 units were found to have violations. Six cases were referred to Housing and Dangerous Buildings due to continuing violations.
If violations are discovered, the inspector provides a list of the items that need to be corrected prior to a 30-day reinspection. Properties that are not brought up to code within the timeframes prescribed by the ordinance are transferred to our Housing and Dangerous Buildings division for enforcement. Of the six cases that were referred in 2025, three have been resolved. The remaining three are ongoing. Additional information on the program can be found on the City’s website at the following link: http://www.cityofsacramento.org/rhip
Program H49. Emergency Repair Program
The City shall provide grants for low- and very low- income homeowners for emergency repairs and/or accessibility modifications to their homes and shall work to identify funding to expand this program to include loans for larger repairs and all electric modifications.
• Timeframe: Ongoing
• Responsible Department or Agency: SHRA; Office of Innovation and Economic Development
• Objective: Provide grants for at least 150 emergency repair projects and 80 accessibility modifications annually and establish a loan program for more substantial repairs.
Continuous In February 2023, the City programmed Aggie Square funds to implement a Home Repair Program with Habitat for Humanity. Since program inception, Habitat has completed repairs on 34 homes, including the full electrification of 2 homes in the same area. In partnership with SMUD, Habitat also completed 24 heat pump installations.
In 2021, SHRA’s Home Repair Grant program provided 38 home repairs and through Rebuiding Together, 41 Minor Home Repairs and 28 Safe at Home.
