Goal 8: Affirmatively further fair housing
The City seeks to expand the range of housing opportunities, including for residents with low and moderate incomes, s eniors, people with disab ilities, large families, female -headed households with children, and people experiencing homelessness. To make adequate provision for the housing needs of all segments of the community, the City must ensure equal and fair housing opportunities available to all residents. The City has identified the objective below in connection with this goal and to achieve compliance with AB 686.
Objective Q: Ensure equal housing opportunities for all residents, regardless of their special characteristics as protected under State and federal fair housing laws
To adequately meet the housing needs of all segments of the community, the City must promote housing opportunities for all residents.

Quantified Objectives
California Government Code, Section 65583(B), requires jurisdictions to estimate the number of affordable housing opportunities that will be created over the planning period. The City of Victorville (City or Victorville) has two sets of numerical housing goals:
• Victorville’s portion of the Southern California Association of Governments Regional Housing Needs Assessment goals
• Quantified objectives for affordable housing production Victorville’s portion of the total Southern California Association of Governments Regional Housing Needs Assessment requires adequate land resources to accommodate 8,165 new housing units, 2,871 of which are for households with low and very -low incomes. The Site Inventory in this Housing Element presents an analysis of adequacy of available land resources for this Regional Housing Needs Assessment allocation.
The total housing needs identified often exceed available resources and the community’s ability to satisfy this need. Therefore, cities must establish quantified objectives for the actual creation of affordable housing opportunities and the provision of other housing assistance. Such quantified objectives need not be identical to the total housing needs.
This section outlines policies and programs that range from streamlining to encourage housing development to homeless services and other housing assistance programs. While many
2021–2029 Housing Element

programs and policies are essential to meeting the City’s housing needs by reducing barriers and creating opportunities for a balanced community, they are qualitative. Other programs are quantitative in nature and allow for an estimate to be generated.
Based on quantitative programs and policies, the City reasonably expects that a total of 3, 862 households will be assisted, as summarized in Table 7-1 and detailed by program in Table 7-2.

8 ADEQUATE SITES INVENTORY
ANALYSIS AND METHODOLOGY
Housing Element law requires the City to identify sites suitable for development of all housing types, with capacity to satisfy the City’s housing needs for the current 2021–2029 6th Cycle Housing Element period. The Sites Inventory is an assessment of the City’s capacity for new housing development, which must demonstrate that the Regional Housing Needs Assessment ( RHNA) target of 8,165 housing units, including 2,871 lower-income (extremely low-, very-low-, and low- income) affordable units, can reasonably be achieved under the City’s current land use plans and zoning regulations, or with planned amendments thereto. Through the Sites Inventory for the 2021– 2029 planning period, the City has demonstrated that it has capacity for at least 15,314 housing units, including 4,788 housing units on sites adequate for lower-income housing based on criteria in California Government Code, Section 65583.2. A complete analysis of the Sites Inventory follows.
The Sites Inventory is included as Appendix C.
This capacity is largely available on vacant sites under current land use plans and zoning regulations. To encourage housing development in accordance with principles of sustainable communities and affirmatively furthering fair housing, the City has identified zoning and land use changes to permit higher -density housing in resource-advantaged areas. These areas are not necessarily “High Resource” areas, as defined for the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (TCAC) / Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) Opportunity Map.
However, the areas score more highly in this regard relative to other portions of the City, and they provide proximity to resources and amenities, such as schools, parks, public services, and commercial uses. Sites dependent on such changes are identified.
Through its Sites Inventory , the City identified 1 58 sites that are adequate for development of housing and that have zoned housing capacity that is reasonably developable within the planning period or will have such capacity with planned zoni ng and land use changes. These sites have capacity for at least 15,314 net housing units under the sites’ existing zoning (or with a proposed zone change in certain circumstances), net of existing residential units on these sites. A subset of these sites m eet the suitability criteria for sites adequate for lower -income (extremely low -, very -low-, and low -income) housing established by California Government Code, Section 65583.2. Out of the total 1 58 sites adequate for housing development, 51 sites meet the lower-income suitability criteria. These sites have zoned capacity for at least 4,788 net potential lower-income housing units, with some sites including moderate- income and above moderate-income units as part of mixed-income development.

1 The proposed developments that represent the 63 low-income units include a 310-unit apartment development (62 low-income units) and a mobile home installation. Affordability was determined based on the apartment developer’s anticipated rents and a market survey of mobile home sale prices.
The 63 low-income units anticipated from proposed projects include 62 units that are part of a 310-unit proposed apartment development near the intersection of Seneca Road and Del Gado Road (Site 43) and a proposed mobile home installation (Site 34). According to the developer for Site 43, anticipated monthly rents are $633 for 1- bedroom units, $749 for 2- bedroom units, and $844 for 3-bedroom units. Per the State Income Limits for 2021 published by HCD on April 26, 2021 and the rent calculation specified in Health & Safety Code section 50053, these rents qualify the units at 45% of Area Median Income ( AMI). A survey conducted by Harris & Associates of mobile homes in the City listed for sale on realtor.com as of October 18, 2021 reflected a median sales price of $150,000. Factoring in average mortgage assumptions to estimate a mortgage payment , plus taxes, insurance, and average mobile home space rent in the City (the sum of which represents the housing costs for a mobile home) , this sales price corresponds approximately to a household with 60% of AMI, based on housing costs being 30% of income, per Health & Safety Code section 50052.5.
8.3 Identification of Developable Sites and Potential
Capacity Methodologies
State law requires that each jurisdiction demonstrate sufficient zoned housing capacity to meet each Housing Element Cycle’s RHNA target. The City determines its housing capacity through a review of planned development and of vacant and non- vacant developable land throughout the City that may reasonably develop within the Housing Element planning period. It is important to note that the Site Inventory (Appendix C ) includes more sites than necessary for the City’s allocated share of RHNA, as there is currently significant developable vacant land within the City’s boundaries. This approach, as recommended by HCD, is utilized because many factors will affect housing development feasibility, trends, and developer and property owner choic es within the City . Additionally, mandating housing development on private property or property owned by other government agencies is not within the City’s authority or powers.
To prepare the Sites Inventory, the City utilized multiple data sources, including building permit and entitlement applications, the City’s interactive GIS portal (which incorporates data from the City’s zoning and land use designations, and location data identified by the City’s GIS Services Division), and the County of San Bernardi no Fiscal Year 2020-21 equalized assessment roll.
2021–2029 Housing Element
Chapter 8: Adequate Sites Inventory Analysis and Methodology 8-5
The process of evaluati ng potential sites involved applying specified criteria to identify sites where planned/zoned residential capacity can realistically be achieved. Per California Government Code, Section 65583.2(a), the City identified the following types of site s as land suitable for residential development:
• Vacant sites zoned for residential use.
• Residentially zoned sites that are capable of being developed at a higher density than current zoning allows, including site s owned by the C ity, and for which the Housing Element includes a program to up -zone the site to permit higher-density residential use (Program PP-A.3).
• Sites zoned for nonresidential use that can be redeveloped for residential use and for which the Housing Element includes a program to rezone the site to permit residential use (Program PP-A.4).
Specifically, the City considered and included commercial zones in resource-advantaged areas as potential sites for rezoning to allow mixed-use development, as well as residential zones that allow low-density (up to 5 dwelling units per acre) or moderate- density development (up to 20 dwelling units per acre) as potential sites for upzoning to accommodate lower-income residential development at the City’s default lower-income housing density (30 dwelling units per acre). The City incorporated this step in recognition of changing demands for commercial development to adapt to changes in retail land uses (with the increasing popularity of e- commerce) and to plan for lower -income, multifamily residential development to be located throughout the City, particularly in proximity to resources such as parks, schools, public services, and employment centers. The City compiled, organized, and mapped the Sites Inventory data into a separate GIS map, shown as Figure 8-1.
As stated above, through its Sites Inventory , the City identified 1 58 sites adequate for development of housing and that have housing capacity that is reasonably developable within the planning period or will have such capacity with planned zoning and land use changes. These sites have capacity for at least 15,314 net housing units under the sites’ existing zoning (or with a proposed zone change in certain circumstances). All of the sites have sufficient water, sewer, and dry utilities infrastructure available and accessible to support housing development. A complete description of the utility infrastructure is provided at the end of this chapter.
Sites with a proposed development are included if the developer has applied and/or received entitlement approval and is expected to receive a permit or certificate of occupancy after the beginning of the City’s RHNA Projection Period ( i.e., June 30, 2021). In these cases, projected site densities are based on owner-proposed development densities.
2021–2029 Housing Element
Chapter 8: Adequate Sites Inventory Analysis and Methodology 8-6
For sites without a currently proposed development, projected densities were estimated using a combination of several factors that are dependent on a site’s unique characteristics, including:
• Whether the site is or will be zoned for mixed-use development; • Whether the site is constrained by environmental conditions; and • The size of the site.
In addition to these factors, the City applied an 80% Realistic Capacity Factor to all sites without a currently proposed development.
The methodology utilized for the factors listed above is as follows:
• A Mixed-Use Factor for sites that are or will be zoned for mixed-use development. o While 100% residential development will be permissible in the City’s MU-2, mixed-use zone, this 67% factor accounts for the expectation that developers may want to include some commercial development, thereby reducing the residential development capacity. • An Environmental Factor for sites that overlap the Oro Grande Wash. o Ranging between 50% and 75%, depending on the site size and orientation to the Oro Grande Was h, this factor accounts for the expectation that no construction would occur on the Oro Grande Wash portion of these sites.
• An Acreage Factor for lower-income sites greater than 10 acres in size. o Ranging between 18% and 86%, this factor effectively only counts lower-income sites greater than 10 acres in size for the number of units that could be developed on 10 acres. This approach ensures that units are not over -counted. When large sites will be subdivided, per Program PP -A.5, more units could be built on each site in the inventory.
• A Realistic Capacity Factor for all sites.
o The City has provided a listing of proposed development projects in various stages of the planning process currently in Table 8- 3 on the following page. There are over 3,200 housing units proposed in the City. The proposed density of these projects range from 75% to 100% of zoned maximums for multifamily developments and from 69% to 99% of zoned maximums for single -family developments with more than 5 homes. Therefore, the City believes that market conditions (analyzed in other sections of this Housing Element), market demand, and developer interest provide evidence that a realistic density at this point in time is at least 80% of zoned maximums for all sites that do not have a current proposed development. Table 8-3 lists the Sites with currently proposed development s, along with their parcel size, zoning, and the
2021–2029 Housing Element
Chapter 8: Adequate Sites Inventory Analysis and Methodology 8-7
capacity expected to be realized based on the proposed development . Because the weighted average realized capacities are 90% and 84%, the use of an 80% Realistic Capacity Factor is conservative.
o All of the proposed developments listed in Table 8-3 are 100% market-rate, with the exception of Site 43, which will consist of 62 low-income and 248 market -rate units.
City staff expects that affordable housing developments would generally have a density greater than or equal to market -rate developments due to density bonuses and public funding sources.
The City believes that the combination of these factor s provides realistic estimates of potential development on the sites. Actual densities will depend on property owners and may exceed 100% of zoned maximums, if State-allowed density bonuses are utilized.
Projected housing development counts are net of any existing residential units on the sites.
These “net potential units” are shown for each site in Table A, Housing Element Sites Inventory, in Appendix C.
Developable sites identified include vacant and non- vacant sites with current or planned land use designations and zoning that permit residential uses, that are at least 4,000 square feet in size (smaller sites may be difficult to develop) , or for which the owners have applied for entitlement or a permit. Sites identified for lower-income capacity, in accordance with State law, generally have a parcel size of at least 0.5 acres and less than 10 acres and have a zoning designation that permits development density of 30 or more dwelling units per acre, which is the City’s default lower-income density pursuant to California Government Code, Section 65583.2.
The exceptions (i.e., sites identified for lower -income capacity that do not meet the above criteria) are listed in Section 8.14, Assembly Bill 1397 Requirements, with explanations providing evidence that the sites can be developed as lower-income housing, in accordance with California Government Code, Section 65583.2.

*Site number 43 includes 62 low-income units. All other proposed developments are 100% market-rate. Based on the weighted average realized capacities for these proposed developments, the City applied an 80% Realistic Capacity Factor to forecast development for sites without a proposed development.
To ensure that identified residential capaci ty can be achieved during the planning period, the following site “types” (i.e., sites with zoning that permits residential uses ) have been excluded from the list of potential housing sites:
• Sites with a small area (less than 4,000 square feet), difficult-to-develop shape, difficult- to-develop topography or that are located in the outskirts of the City, away from existing developed areas.
• Sites with income-restricted affordable units that are legally required to remain affordable through the Housing Element planning period under applicable deed restrictions or other legal covenants.
• Certain government-owned sites:
o City-owned sites that are needed for an existing or planned City use. o City-owned sites that are not currently utilized for City operations, but have not yet been identified as potentially surplus and suitable for sale (i.e., having potential not to be needed for an existing or planned City use).
2021–2029 Housing Element
Chapter 8: Adequate Sites Inventory Analysis and Methodology 8-9
o Sites that are owned by other government agencies (e.g., County of San Bernardino, State of California, federal government, Snowline Joint Unified School District) that may be needed for future public use, even if they are currently vacant.
Environmental constraints are factored into the Sites Inventory. Most sites are not impacted by any environmental constraints. More specifically, approximately 107 acres out of 126 gross acres on Site 21 is proposed for the development of 561 housing units and overlaps a 100-year flood zone. However, the proposed units will be developed outside of the flood zone area and the developer will construct a containment channel to reduce the risk of flooding.
Additionally, Sites 3, 5, 6, and 12 are located in a 500-year flood zone. This is a lower level of risk than the 100-year flood zone, and developers will be required to implement mitigation measures.
Finally, Sites 17C, 17D, 17E, and 17F partially overlap the Oro Grande Wash but are sufficiently large (ranging between 8.65 acres and 39.61 acres) that development can occur without building directly in the wash. In order to account for this, the projected site capacity in the Site Inventory for these properties has been reduced to account for this restriction. The applied Environmental Factor ranges between 50% and 75% for these Sites, corresponding to an approximation of the portion of the Site outside of the wash.
8.4 Housing Capacity and Past Housing Production
by Community
For the purposes of assessing future development likelihood, the City reviewed recent development by planning area. This review illuminates housing development interest and viability for different areas of the City.
8.4.1 Recent Past Housing Production by Community
The numbers of housing units with issued permits during the 5th Cycle Housing Element planning period to date are shown by planning area in Table 8-4. During this period, residential permitting in the City has occurred predominantly in the Baldy Mesa and West City Planning Areas, where over 65% of the total permitted units are located. Other popular Planning A reas for proposed development are West Bear Valley (18% of permitted units), East Bear Valley (10%), and Golden Triangle (7%). Notably, no multifamily developments were permitted during this period, as there was a lack of developer interest. Consultations with the Building Industry Association, Inland Empire Chapter, reveal that local developers have been interested solely in developing single-family homes due to consumer demand and preferences , as well as the fact that prices for single-family homes are significantly lower and within reach of a larger population than in adjacent counties like Orange and Riverside.

For comparison, the City analyzed the sites in this 6th Cycle Housing Element Sites I nventory by Planning Area , as summarized in Table 8- 5. Similar to recent development, the S ites Inventory anticipates a significant number (47%) of units to be developed in the Baldy Mesa and West City areas. In contrast to development during the 5 th Cycle, the Sites Inventory is more diversified to encourage new residential development to serve all areas of the City. Specifically, the Sites Inventory includes 21% of units in the Golden Triangle Planning Area and 12% in each of the Civic Center and East Bear Valley Planning Areas.

8.5 Housing Potential Assumptions – General
In general, the reasonable residential development potential of vacant and non- vacant sites is assumed at 80% of maximum permitted density of the applicable zone, which is rounded down from the average based on recent, actual submitted and anticipated housing development applications (see Table 8- 3), with adjustments made for environmental considerations , expectations for mixed -use development, and expectations for partial large- site development.
The City expects that future housing development project applications will match the current trend of proposed residential dens ities near the maximum density allowed or will s eek density bonuses as allowed by State law.
The City’s Zoning Code provides residential and mixed-use land use designations with maximum densities in dwelling units per acre. The Old Town and Civic Center Specific Plans offer a range of allowed densities, and the Old Town Specific Plan offers a density bonus for including affordable housing. The City enforces the zone maximum permitted residential density for projects that do not use the affordable housing density bonus program.
Projects seeking a higher-level discretionary permit are reviewed for project consistency with the General Plan and the associated Specific Plan. City staff encourages development projects to achieve densities as close as possible to the allowed maximums. Projects that propose to exceed the zone maximum permitted density are given the option to use the affordable housing density bonus program (or other related program), reduce the proposed density to the zone maximum, or apply for a rezone to increase the permitted residential density in order to proceed with permit processing. Projects that propose a density below the Specific Plan-permitted density would be given the option to revise the project to increase the proposed density or to proceed to a hearing to make their case for the lower proposed density to the permit decision maker. The City has not received any development proposals for less than the permitted density where that permitted density is a range.

Chapter 8: Adequate Sites Inventory Analysis and Methodology 8-12
8.6 Housing Potential Methodology – Sites with
Commercial Zoning
A portion of the City’s reasonably developable housing capacity, as identified in the Sites Inventory, is attributable to vacant sites with zoning for commercial uses, specifically the General Commercial (C-2) and Administrative Professional Offices (C-A) zones. The total number and percentage of sites in the inventory with commercial zoning and their net potential units are shown in Table 8 -6. More specifically, v acant sites currently zoned for commercial uses represent approximately 12% of potential units at all income levels and approximately 1 5% of potential lower-income units pursuant to the Sites Inventory. It is important to emphasize that all sites zoned for commercial uses included in the Sites Inventory are vacant land and will be rezoned to permit mixed- use development as part of the Land Use Element Update currently in process and anticipated to be completed in 2022.

Units 15,314 4,788 1,835 12% 726 15%
The City has utilized the following methodology to calculate realistic residential development potential on the commercially zoned sites:
• The City’s program to rezone the identified commercial areas would apply a zoning that allows mixed-use development with residential density up to 30 dwelling units per acre.
Notably site 14D is the s ite of a current , conceptual development proposal tentatively featuring 376 residences, equal to a net density of 10.5 dwelling units per acre, along with a commercial component.
• The residential capacity of the commercial sites is reduced by a factor of 67% to account for the anticipated reduction in residential development due to the inclusion of commercial uses. Several sites are located on the Oro Grande Wash and have a second factor of 50% to 75% (“Environmental Factor”) applied, corresponding to an approximation of the portion of the Site outside of the wash.
• Because the site s are anticipated to include affordable housing development, a further reduction to residential capacity is applied to those sites larger than 10 acres. Specifically, if the prior adjustments have not already reduced the site capacity below 300 dwelling
2021–2029 Housing Element
Chapter 8: Adequate Sites Inventory Analysis and Methodology 8-13
units (the capacity of 10 acres developed at 30 units per acre) , this adjustment reduces the site capacity to 300 dwelling units, i.e., as if only 10 acres were developed. • Finally, an 80% factor is applied to the site capacity, as it is to all other sites in the Sites Inventory.
The City’s program to encourage subdivision of high- density residential and mixed- use sites greater than 10 acres will increase capacity above what is projected.
8.6.1 Likelihood of Development of Sites with Commercial Zoning with Residential Uses
The actual proposed development projects that include both commercial and residential uses provides evidence of developer interest in building residential units on proper ties zoned for mixed-use development. One notable example is located on Site 14D; the developer sought to change the zoning to allow mixed -use development, even before the City began the Housing Element update. Another example is Site 17F, regarding which City staff received an email from a representative of a recent buyer of the site . The representative indicated that the new owner is interested in rezoning the property for residential development.
8.7 Consistency with Affirmatively Furthering
Fair Housing
The City has determined that the Sites Inventory is consistent with the City’s goals to further fair housing affirmatively. This evaluation is detailed in Appendix B, Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing, and summarized here.
The City’s Sites Inventory (including the City’s rezone strategy) will affirmatively further fair housing as residential sites are/will be (following zone changes) distributed across resource areas — including a higher share of lower-income units in the City’s TCAC/HCD moderate resource areas.
This distribution facilit ates housing development in areas with better access to jobs, transit, schools, public services, and other amenities. It is important to note that the City is pursuing all resources and methods for the revitalization of T CAC/HCD Low Resource areas, including the adoption of a Community Revitalization Investment Area (CRIA) as allowed by State Law.
8.8 Vacant Sites
The Sites Inventory identifies vacant developable residential sites throughout the City that can develop within the current RHNA cycle. Vacant sites currently zoned for residential uses or planned for rezoning to allow residential uses total 148 (94% of total sites) and facilitate the development of 14,673 future housing units (96% of total net potential units). All sites that the City plans to rezone are vacant.
2021–2029 Housing Element
Chapter 8: Adequate Sites Inventory Analysis and Methodology 8-14
Twenty-seven vacant sites have been included in the Sites Inventory of the previous Housing Element cycle (see Section 8.14, Assembly Bill 1397 Requirements). However, it is important to note that none of the sites in the Sites Inventory was listed in the Sites Inventory of the two most recent Housing Element cycles.
8.9 Non-Vacant Sites
Only 10 sites listed in the Sites Inventory are not vacant, as defined in the Housing Element Sites Inventory Guidebook.
Site 4 is a parking lot and Sites 109, 110, and 125 contain abandoned farmland and a single house. The City expects development demand to be strong for these sites due to a significant planned development of the nearby St. Mary’s Medical Campus, which is planned as a 255-bed hospital and surrounding complementary uses.
The remaining six (6) non-vacant sites are included in the Site Inventory due to recent entitlement approvals or active development applications (no building permits have been issued to date). These developments include four ADUs, one subdivision resulting in two additional residential units, and one rebuild of a nonconforming, damaged, uninhabited, and uninhabitable four-unit structure. It is important to note that none of the 10 non-vacant sites was included in the 5th Cycle Housing Element Sites Inventory.
8.9.1 Replacement Housing Requirements
California Government Code Section 65583.2(g)(3) requires that the following are subject to a policy requiring replacement units affordable to the same or lower income level:
• Sites that currently have residential uses; and
• Sites that had residential uses within the past five years which have been vacated or demolished that:
o Are or were subject to a recorded covenant, ordinance, or law that restricts rents to levels affordable to persons and families of low or very low income; o Are or were subject to any other form of rent or price control through a public entity’s valid exercise of its police power; or
o Are or were occupied by low or very low-income households.
Of the 10 non-vacant sites in the Sites Inventory, two have existing residential uses (excluding sites for which an ADU is proposed):
• Site 60 (15436 6
th St.) – This property is a 0.5 acre lot. A three- unit residential structure was damaged by fire and has been demolished. A one-unit structure and a 2-car parking garage remain standing. The property was last sold in 2014 and is not subject to a
2021–2029 Housing Element
Chapter 8: Adequate Sites Inventory Analysis and Methodology 8-15
recorded covenant, ordinance, or law that restricts rents. The remaining residential structure is nonconforming, damaged, uninhabited, and uninhabitable. The property is currently listed for sale and the photographs on Zillow.com (October 2021) show the structure as boarded up and abandoned. T he structure is uninhabited and does not require replacement housing.
• Site 125 (13112 Smoke Tree St.) – This property is made up of five acres of farmland with a single house. It was last sold in 2014 and is not subject to a recorded covenant, ordinance, or law that restricts rents. The house on the property is currently habitable and has an active rental license. However, the City has no available record of the property being currently inhabited or the income levels of any residents that could be inhabiting it.
If it is determined that the residential unit is occupied by a lower-income household, then the unit will be replaced with a unit restricted for a lower -income household on the same or a nearby parcel.
To ensure that any demolished units are replaced, the City is including a program for replacement units ( See Policy HE- E.7 and Proposed Program PP -E.3). Pursuant to this program, the City will review all available information for both properties and will ensure that any needed replacement housing is provided for any units with lower-income households residing in the structures now or in the past five years.
8.10 Accessory Dwelling Units
The City’s Sites Inventory includes four sites on which the property owner has an application pending or entitlement approved, but not a building permit issued, for construction of an ADU or conversion of an existing structure (garage) to an ADU. These ADUs may be permitted and/or built before June 30, 2021. T hey are included as representative of other ADUs expected to be permitted during the Projection Period. The City has not counted additional credits for anticipated ADUs. While ADUs are permitted in the City, including on sites zoned for single-family residential use, there is not yet sufficient data on ADU building permits to identify adequately the likely rate of future ADU construction. Therefore, the City is taking a conservative approach by projecting only the number of ADUs with a pending or approved application from 2020.
8.11 Assembly Bill 1486 City-Owned Land
AB 1486, signed into State law in 2019, expands surplus property requirements for State and local government agencies. The bill includes amendments to the California Government Code to require that jurisdictions include government -owned sites that are zoned for residential use, vacant and non-vacant, in the Sites Inventory.
The City included four sites that it wholly or partially owns in the Sites Inventory, all of which are located in the Old Town area. The City is pursuing the adoption of a CRIA to help generate
2021–2029 Housing Element
Chapter 8: Adequate Sites Inventory Analysis and Methodology 8-16
funding for affordable housing development in the Old Town ar ea. It is anticipated that the formation of a CRIA will provide funding and planning efforts to develop affordable housing on the four sites.
For the purposes of this Sites Inventory, consistent with the provisions of AB 1486 regarding “exempt surplus land,” the following types of City-owned sites are not included in the inventory:
• Sites that are needed for existing or planned City use, including storm water drainage, water storage, and delivery
• Sites that have not been identified as potentially surplus and suitable for sale • Sites that have been acquired by the City in relation to a legal claim • Sites that are subject to a right-of-way easement that would need to be vacated by action of the City Council prior to potential housing permitting and development Sites that are potentially surplus and have potential for sale are included in the Sites Inventory in Appendix C. This group includes five sites, all of which have been offered for sale by the City in a Request for Proposals. These City -owned properties will be subject to the disposition requirements in AB 1486 with which the City will fully comply.
8.12 Suitability of Sites for Moderate-Income
Housing
Housing Element law does not specify a minimum zoning requirement for moderate -income housing. Therefore, both moderate income and above-moderate income housing can be developed in all zones allowing residential development. As stated in Section 8.3, Identification of Developable Sites and Potential Capacity Methodologies, the City has identified sites generally suitable for housing development for both moderate-income and above-moderate-income housing, including sites in the following zones:
• Suburban Residential (S-R)
• Single Family Residential (R-1)
• Medium Density Residential (R-2)
• High Density Residential (R-3)
• Very High Density Residential (R-4)
• Mixed Density Residential (MDR)
• Residential Mobile Home Planned
Development (R-MPD)
• Planned Unit Development (PUD)
• Specific Plan (SP)
In addition, the sites that are currently zoned for commercial uses but planned for zone changes to allow for residential units (as described earlier in this chapter) would also allow for moderate- income and above-moderate-income housing.
2021–2029 Housing Element
Chapter 8: Adequate Sites Inventory Analysis and Methodology 8-17
8.13 Suitability of Sites for Lower-Income Housing
The Sites Inventory identifies 4,788 total potential housing units on 51 sites that are suitable for lower-income housing development, based on the criteria established by Housing Element law and the HCD, with special considerations described below (Table 8-7). These units are attributed to sites that:
• Have a minimum zoned and/or designated residential density of 30 dwelling units per acre or for which the City has a program to allow such development on the sites , with several exceptions identified and explained below
• Have a minimum parcel size of 0.5 acres
• Have a maximum parcel size of 9.99 acres, with several exceptions identified and explained below
• Are vacant (the California Government Code allows the inclusion of non-vacant sites, but the City has elected to focus on vacant sites)
Table 8-7 quantifies the lower income Sites with special considerations: lower density Sites that the City will up-zone, commercial Sites that the City will rezone, and large (10+ acres) Sites with an Acreage Factor applied to project realistic capacity based on a 10-acre development.

3 Includes only lower income units associated with the Sites. 4 Includes only non-vacant sites.
Site 43 is the site of a current proposal for the development of 310 units, including 62 lower-income housing units, equal to a total net density of approximately 15 units per acre. The proposal is conceptual as of the date of this Draft Housing Element, and additional details are pending.
2021–2029 Housing Element
Chapter 8: Adequate Sites Inventory Analysis and Methodology 8-18
In addition, 14 of the 51 sites identified for lower -income housing are considered relatively competitive for affordable housing funding since they are located in a moderate resource area according to the 2021 TCAC/ HCD Opportunity Area Maps. This is the highest resource level available in the City, according to the 2021 Opportunity Maps.
8.13.1 Sites Used in Previous Planning Periods’ Housing Elements Twenty-seven vacant sites listed in the Site Inventory were previously included in the 5th Cycle Housing Element Sites Inventory. However, none of the sites in the Sites Inventory was included in the 4 th Cycle Housing Element Sites Inventory. Additionally, ten (10) non-vacant sites are included in the current Sites Inventory . None of them was included in the previous Housing Element Sites Inventory. Therefore, none of the site s in the Sites Inventory is subject to the requirements applicable to sites used in previous periods’ Housing Elements.
It should be noted that the Sites Inventory template does not allow one to choose “Used in Prior Housing Element – Vacant.” The City labeled the vacant sites that were identified in the 5th Cycle Sites Inventory as “Not used in prior Housi ng Element,” since that is the closest designation available. The City added notes to the Optional Information field to clarify the designation.
8.13.2 Sites Zoned/Designated for Adequate Density
The City is considered a “metropolitan jurisdiction,” which designates a default lower-income housing density of 30 dwelling units per acre for sites to be considered suitable for lower-income housing. The City’s zoning and land use designations use the residential density ranges shown in Table 8-8, as established by the City’s General Plan, Old Town Specific Plan, and Civic Center Specific Plan, and as codified in the City’s Municipal Code.

Adopted in 2017, AB 1397 implemented new requirements for the Sites Inventory regarding non- vacant sites that were identified in one previous Housing Element and vacant sites that were identified in two previous Housing Elements. In order to be eligible to be counted toward the City’s lower-income housing capacity without being subject to restrictions on discretionary review, these sites must meet both of the following criteria:
• Zoned to allow a maximum residential density consistent with the City’s default lower - income residential density of 30 dwelling units per acre; and • Allow residential use by right for housing developments in which at least 20% of the units are affordable to households with lower incomes.
Of the sites in the City’s current Sites Inventory, 27 vacant sites were identified in the 5th Cycle Housing Element Sites Inventory but no Sites were identified in the 4th Cycle Sites Inventory.
Further, AB 1397 requires that , if the “i nventory of land suitable and available for residential development” (which includes “s ites zoned for nonresidential use that can be redeveloped for residential use, and for which the H ousing Element includes a program to rezone the site to permit residential use”) does not identify sufficient capacity, then the City must include a program to rezone sites that can be developed for housing to accommodate the “shortfall ,” with specific program requirements that restrict the City’s review to a ministerial review. The City previously interpreted this portion of AB 1397 and the “shortfall” to refer to programs for rezoning in a previous Housing Element cycle (meaning the 5
th cycle in this case) that were not implemented,
which would not apply to the City.
In its September 17, 2021 review letter, HCD insisted on a different interpretation: that the “shortfall” refers to the difference in the current Housing Element cycle (meaning the 6th cycle in this case) between the City’s RHNA and the Sites Inventory prior to any rezoning. The City has sufficient vacant land zoned appropriately to fulfill its RHNA at all income levels without any rezoning. However, the City has chosen to rezone certain areas in order to further fair housing affirmatively, to encourage infill development, and to use City land more responsibly and resiliently. In accordance with HCD’s interpretation, t he City’s programs to rezone sites (Proposed Programs PP -A.4 and PP -P.1) are designed to permit owner-occupied and rental multifamily residential use by right for developments in which at least 20% of the units are affordable to lower income households.
To encourage affordable housing development throughout the City, particularly in resource- advantaged areas, the City designated 18 site s in the Sites Inventory that are zoned for
2021–2029 Housing Element
Chapter 8: Adequate Sites Inventory Analysis and Methodology 8-20
commercial or PUD for rezoning and lower -income residential development . The 18 sites are located either in the Desert Valley Hospital area, directly west of Dunia Plaza, or in the Baldy Mesa Planning Area. The Housing Element includes a program (Program PP-A.4) to rezone commercial and PUD zones in these areas to allow mixed- use development, including higher -density residential development.
For the same reason of encouraging affordable housing throughout the City, the Sites Inventory contains 6 sites currently zoned at a lower density (R -1 or R -3) designated for rezoning to a higher density (a new R -4) and for lower -income residential development , as well as 7 sites currently zoned R -4 that can be considered to be rezoned when the City will increase its R -4 development standards from 20 units per acre to 30 units per acre (Program PP-A.4). These sites are located either close to the intersection of CA Route 18 and US Route 395 or just west of the Civic Center.
Under HCD’s interpretation, the City would be subject to an “Adequate Sites Program” applicable to the sites that will be rezoned to satisfy the lower-income RHNA. Specifically:
a. The Adequate Sites Program must accommodate 100% of the shortfall of sites necessary to accommodate the remaining lower-income housing need. b. The City must permit owner-occupied and rental multifamily uses by right for developments in which 20% or more of the units are affordable to lower-income households. c. The City must permit the development of at least 16 units per site. d. The City must permit a minimum of 20 dwelling units per acre. e. The City must ensure that either:
1. At least 50% of the shortfall of low - and very low-income regional housing need can be accommodated on sites designated for exclusively residential uses; or
2. All sites designated for mixed- uses must allow 100% residential use and require residential use to occupy at least 50% of the floor area in a mixed-use project.
As evidenced in this 6th Cycle Housing Element, the City has satisfied all of these requirements.
The Adequate Sites Program accommodates 100% of the shortfall of sites necessary to accommodate the remaining lower -income housing need. Based on the City’s default density and the sites’ sizes, the City will permit 30 dwelling units per acre on the rezoned site s and at least 16 units per site. If required by HCD, the City will permit residential development by right for developments in which at least 20% of the units are affordable to lower-income households.
The City will adopt objective standards to apply in such circumstances. As shown in Table 8 -9, more than 50% of the shortfall can be accommodated on site s designated for exclusively residential uses.

AB 1397 also requires that sites deemed adequate for lower -income housing should be more than 0.5 acre and less than 10 acres in size. The City’s Sites Inventory includes nine (9) sites that the City deems adequate for lower -income housing, even though they are larger than 10 acres. The following explains the City’s rationale for including these sites, including the reasons to consider them adequate for lower-income housing development:
1. Site 15A is located in the Baldy Mesa Planning Area and is currently zoned for PUD. For the Sites Inventory, the site is projected to contain 240 units, approximately 53% of the maximum site capacity. (For this and the following calculations of “maximum site capacity,” an 80% Realistic Capacity Factor is incorporated.) f. Site 16A is located in the West Bear Valley Planning Area and is split between two zones, High Density Residential (R-3) (up to 15 dwelling units per acre) and General Commercial (C-2). The Housing Element includes a planned program (Program PP -A.3) to allow higher-density residential development in High Density Residential (R-3) and Very High Density Residential ( R-4) zones in portions of the City . Specifically, as planned in the Land Use Element, this site would be rezoned Very High Density Residential (R-4), which would be adjusted to allow up to 30 dwe lling units per acre. This would enable lower - income residential development on the current High Density Residential (R-3) portion of this site. The City expects that the site would be subdivided yet only projects 240 units, approximately 45% of the High Density Residential (R3) portion of the site’s capacity at a 30 dwelling unit per acre density.
g. Site 17B is located west of Dunia Plaza and is zoned General Commercial (C-2). The Housing Element includes a program (Program PP -A.4) to rezone select General Commercial (C-2) sites to allow mixed -use with higher-density residential development, including lower-income residential development. The site is only slightly larger than 10 acres, at 10.16 acres. For the Sites Inventory, the site is projected to contain 163 units. This includes a 67% Mixed-Use Factor, even though the site is set back more than 500 feet from Bear Valley Road and is, therefore, a potential candidate for a 100% residential development. h. Site 17D is located west of Dunia Plaza and is zoned General Commercial (C-2). The Housing Element includes a program (Program PP -A.4) to rezone select General
2021–2029 Housing Element
Chapter 8: Adequate Sites Inventory Analysis and Methodology 8-22
Commercial (C-2) sites to allow mixed-use with higher-density residential development, including lower -income residential development. For the Sites Inv entory, the site is projected to be developed with a mix of uses, with commercial uses fronting Bear Valley Road and higher-density residential development behind the commercial uses. The site is projected to have 208 dwelling units, which includes a 67% M ixed-Use Factor and a 60% Environmental Factor for the Oro Grande Wash.
i. Site 17E is located west of Dunia Plaza and is zoned General Commercial (C-2). The Housing Element includes a program (Program PP -A.4) to rezone select General Commercial (C-2) sites to allow mixed-use with higher-density residential development, including lower -income residential development. For the Sites Inventory , the site is projected to be developed with a mix of uses, with commercial uses fronting Bear Valley Road and higher-density residential development behind the commercial uses. The site is projected to have 144 dwelling units, which includes a 67% Mixed- Use Factor and a 60% Environmental Factor for the Oro Grande Wash.
j. Site 17F is located west of Dunia Plaza and is zoned General Commercial (C-2). The Housing Element includes a program (Program PP -A.4) to rezone select General Commercial (C-2) sites to allow mixed-use with higher-density residential development, including lower-income residential development. The site significantly overlaps with the Oro Grande Wash. For the Sites Inventory, the City projects that only a 10- acre portion of the site would be developed with a residential use , resulting in 240 units . The site is sufficiently large to accommodate this even after accounting for a 67% Mixed-Use Factor and a 50% Environmental Factor.
The City received an email on June 7, 2021, from a representative of the recent buyer of this property asking about including the re- designation of this site for residential use in the General Plan Update. The buyer’s representative was probably unaware that the City had already announced this intention at a May 26, 2021, Land Use Element workshop.
The City considers this inquiry as representative of increasing interest in developing residential uses in current commercial zones.
k. Site 18 is located in the West City Planning A rea and is zoned High Density Residential (R3) (up to 15 dwelling units per acre). The Housing Element includes a planned program (Program PP -A.3) to allow higher -density residential development in High Density Residential (R-3) and Very High Density Residential ( R-4) zones within the West City area. Specifically, this site would be rezoned High Density Residential (R-4), which would be adjusted to allow up to 30 dwelling units per acre. This would enable lower -income residential development on this site. For the Sites Inventory, the City projects that the site would be developed with 240 units, approximately 79% of the site’s capacity at a 30 dwelling unit per acre density.
2021–2029 Housing Element
Chapter 8: Adequate Sites Inventory Analysis and Methodology 8-23
l. Site 43 is the subject of a current development proposal for 310 dwelling units, which include 62 proposed low-income units. The site is located between two existing multifamily developments.
m. Site 105 is located in the West City Planning Area. A lthough the site is currently zoned Single Family Residential (R-1), it is located within walking distance of commercial services and other current or future high- density residential zones . For the Sites Inventory, the City projects that the site would be developed with 240 units, approximately 18% of the site’s capacity at a 30 dwelling unit per acre density.
The Housing Element includes a program (Program PP-A.5) to encourage subdivision of the large, lower-income sites in the Sites Inventory. Because the Housing Element also includes a program (Program PP-A.4) to rezone these sites, the City anticipates that the rezoning will spur owners to re-evaluate their properties for potential subdivision.
8.15 Specific Plans
The Sites Inventory includes 34 site s located in Specific Plan areas, including 17 site s designated for lower -income housing. The lower-income sites are primarily located in the Old Town and Civic Center Specific Plan areas, with additional sites in the Vista Verde, Talon Ranch, and West Creek Specific Plan areas.

8.16 Senate Bill 330 Requirements
Adopted in 2019, Senate Bill (SB) 330 implements new requirements applicable to the S ites Inventory to conserve existing affordable housing units and units that are occupied by households with lower incomes. Pursuant to SB 330, sites with existing residential units cannot be counted toward the City’s lower -income capacity unless the City has adopted a mechanism to require replacement of existing units that are, or within the last 5 years were, affordable to households with low or very -low incomes or occupied by households with low or very -low incomes (referred to by SB 330 as “Protected Units”). All of the City’s sites identified for lower - income housing are vacant land; a large lot with one, unprotected home on it ; a parking lot; or identified as adding an ADU, which the City has determined to be affordable to households with lower incomes. None of the sites in the Sites Inventory contains a Protected Unit.
8.17 Senate Bill 1333 Requirements – “No Net Loss”
Recent modifications to Housing Element law adopted through SB 1333, known as the “No Net Loss” provisions, require that the City maintain adequate capacity to accommodate the remaining unmet portion of its RHNA target for each of the income categories throughout the 8- year Housing Element planning period. The City must also monitor housing production as the planning period progresses, and ensure that the City does not reduce the housing capacity below what is needed to meet its RHNA target by income level through either (1) adoption of reductions in allowable residential densities for sites identified in the Sites Inventory through community plan update/amendment or rezone, or (2) approval of development or building permits for sites identified in the i nventory that authorize the construction or development of fewer units (by income level) than identified as possible in the inventory.
To address the intent of the “No Net Loss” provisions, in preparing its Sites Inventory, the City:
• Reduced the estimates of site housing capacity based on environmental features, expectations for mixed-use development, and expectations for partial large-site development. • Further reduced estimated site housing capacity to ensure estimates are conservative (80% of the net potential housing units).
• Identified enough sites with housing capacity to provide a substantial ( 88% overall and 67% for the lower-income levels) capacity buffer above its RHNA targets to ensure that the City maintains adequate capacity to meet its targets.
The City will monitor its Sites Inventory regularly through the Housing Element period and prepare the Annual Progress Reports to evaluate the City’s progress in permitting units in its Sites Inventory and to ensure that the City maintains sufficient housing capacity. As needed, the City will update its community plans and zoning to identify opportunities to increase housing capacity in a manner consistent with the General Plan.

8.18 Development Site Access to Water, Sewer, and
Dry Utilities
8.18.1 Water and Sewer
The City provides water and wastewater services within the city limits of Victorville. The extent of the services currently provided and those that are planned into the future are detailed in the City’s 2020 Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP) and 2016 Sewer Master Plan. Water resources in the region are under the control of the Mojave Water Authority, which regulates groundwater resources, and the importation of water from the State Water Project. Regional wastewater treatment is provided by the Victor Valley Water Reclamation Agency providing conveyance and treatment to Victorville and several other local communities. Approximately 20% of the wastewater generated in the City is sent to the City-owned Industrial Wastewater Treatment Plant. Licensed engineers from Harris & Associates reviewed the UWMP and 2016 Sewer Master Plan and concluded that the existing infrastructure can accommodate the City’s RHNA target of 8,165 housing units. Such findings are explained in this section.
As stated in the UWMP, the Victorville Water Division (VWD) has adequate water supplies to meet demands during average, single dry, and multiple dry years throughout the 25-year planning period.
VWD will continue aggressive water conservation efforts, increased use of recycled water to offset potable water demand, and participation in new water supply projects with the Mojave Water Authority to ensure supplies continue to meet current and projected demands.
A check with the Victor Valley Water Reclamation Agency indicated it had adequate wastewater treatment capacity, but could not offer a planning horizon for how long the capacity would be available. The Victor Valley Water Reclamation Agency is in the process of developing a master plan for its conveyance and treatment system. No time frame was offered when the master plan would be completed.
Through the UWMP and the 2016 Sewer Master Plan, the City plans the extension of water mains and sewer lines over the 25-year planning horizon into undeveloped and under-developed areas of the City and into its Sphere of Influence. New water mains and sewer lines in previously undeveloped and under-developed areas are installed by developers/property owners as part of the construction project. Connection fees are also assessed at the time of connect ion to the water main or sewer line that the developer/property owner purchases a portion of the water supply and treatment and the wastewater treatment and disposal. Water main service may or may not be immediately available at the proposed sites in the S ites Inventory, as the City does not make this information readily available for security reasons. However, the UWMP states the City has adequate supplies to meet the growth demands of the City through the UWMP 25-year planning horizon. A comparison of the Sites Inventory with an existing sewer line indicates that all sites are reasonably near or adjacent to active sewer lines, except for Site 28, which appears to be a considerable distance from an active sewer line. Site 28 is included in the Sites Inventory
2021–2029 Housing Element
Chapter 8: Adequate Sites Inventory Analysis and Methodology 8-26
because it is the site of a recently approved entitlement and is surrounded by developed sites on all four sides.
The UWMP does state that “VWD will not deny or put unreasonable conditions for water services, or reduce the amount of services applied for by a proposed development that includes housing unit affordable to households with lower incomes unless one of the following occurs:
• “VWD specifically find it does not have sufficient water supply. • “VWD is subject to a compliance order issued by the S tate that prohibits new water connections.
• “The applicant has failed to agree to reasonable terms and conditions relating to the provision of services.”
8.18.2 Dry Utilities
All sites in the inventory lie within the city limits of Victorville and are provided elec trical service by Southern California Edison and natural gas service by Southwest Gas. Additional dry utilities include telecommunications providers, cable providers, and solid waste collection (Victorville Disposal). As with water and sewer services, with development in the City gradually shifting to be more infill, new development will largely occur as infill in areas with existing utility infrastructure or in the newly developing areas that are located near developed areas with existing utility infrastructure.

APPENDIX A - PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT
Government Code Section 65583(c )(7) requires that local governments “make a diligent effort to achieve public participation of all economic segments of the community in the development of the housing element.” Compliant with this requirement and in an effort to engage the City’s constituents in the planning process, the City of Victorville organized multiple activities, including a community survey , two c ommunity workshops held during special meetings held by the Planning Commission, a meeting with the Building Industry Association, and four meetings with local housing developers.
In order to promote all of these activities, the City used the City’s website, social media accounts, mailers, and their public email system. Furthermore, the City made sure to reach out to local stakeholders, including community organizations, to ensure all of the mediums used for feedback were accessible to everyone in our community.
Once all the feedback was compiled, the City summarized it to find the issues that were most pressing to the Victorville community, and used that information to steer the goals, policies, and proposed activities for the planning period. All of the a ctivities and outreach materials are documented in this Appendix A, which includes the following:

3 City of Victorville General Plan Update Public Engagement Plan
1. Introduction
The Public Engagement Plan summarizes the strategies and process the City of Victorville and the consultant team (Harris & Associates and CityPlace Planning) will use and follow to engage the public and other stakeholders in the preparation of the General Plan update. The Public Engagement Plan guides and prioritizes City efforts, first summarizing goals and guiding principles for public engagement, followed by summaries of specific outreach methods the planning team will conduct during the planning process for each General Plan element.
Importantly, this plan will address how engagement strategies will be adapted to achieve the goals of the Engagement Plan considering COVID-19, while ensuring the process is safe and accessible to residents.
1.1 Purpose
The purpose of the Engagement Plan is to ensure residents, businesses, community based organizations, and public agencies (collectively referred to as “stakeholders”) are actively involved in updating the City’s Housing Element, Land Use Element, and Safety Element, as well as preparing a new Environmental Justice Element of the General Plan. Engaging the community in the planning process and incorporating feedback is essential to ensuring that the General Plan reflects the priorities of the community it serves and that the strategies for achieving those goals are feasible, equitable, and can be implemented efficiently with support from the community. The outreach effort may evolve and change from that published in the Final Public Engagement Plan at the City’s discretion to meet the program needs and coordinate with other related planning efforts.
1.2 Public Engagement Goals
The goals of this outreach and engagement effort are to (a) raise awareness of the General Plan update; (b) provide opportunities for stakeholder input, especially in updating and prioritizing goals and strategies; and (c) provide a public process that maximizes participation from all stakeholders and facilitates compliance with state laws and requirements for community involvement. The rationale for each of these goals are as follows:
a) Awareness – stakeholders must be aware of the General Plan update process in order to participate.
b) Input and Decision-Making – stakeholders’ knowledge and perspectives help the consultant team verify or expand on available information and better determine the appropriateness or effectiveness of proposed strategies.
c) Public Process – State law requires the local planning agency to provide opportunities for the involvement of the community. Such involvement should include public agencies, public utility companies, community groups, and others through hearings or other appropriate methods (Gov. Code § 65351). Every effort will be made to engage all stakeholders using multiple modes, such as the City’s website, paper copies of information available at City Hall 4 and sent to known community groups and school districts. Stakeholder participation opportunities will also be announced at City Council and Planning Commission meetings.
Information on the General Plan update, including all opportunities to learn more and participate in the process, will be displayed regularly on the City’s social media sites (including Facebook, Instagram and Twitter). The City will request that community groups and school districts also post about these opportunities on their own social media sites.
Community surveys will also be utilized to solicit input and participation. Government Code section 65357 requires that copies of the documents adopting or amending a general plan, including the diagrams and text, shall be made available to the public.
d) Equitable Community Involvement - State law requires that a jurisdiction make a diligent effort to include all economic groups when drafting, adopting and implementing its housing element (Gov. Code § 65583(c)(8)). A special effort will be made to engage low- and moderate-income households.
1.3 Best Practices
To ensure comprehensive outreach to the community, the Public Engagement Plan identifies best practices and includes several engagement tools and strategies. One component of the General Plan update is the Environmental Justice Element, which will be the City’s first. A key environmental justice principle is involving communities traditionally left out of decision-making processes that influence their environment and quality of life. SB 1000 requires local jurisdictions to promote “civil engagement in public decision-making processes.” This General Plan update will be the City’s first case-study in executing Environmental Justice best practices into a planning process.
The City will work to execute best practices for equitable community engagement for the General Plan Update. The COVID-19 pandemic presents challenges as best practices do include in-person meetings and events which are not possible given safety concerns. Instead, virtual events will be held to ensure communication with the public, with recordings of each event that can be accessed on the City’s website for any participants who are not able to attend an event live. The consultant team will consider the possibility of conducting Planning Commission meetings, workshops, and City Council adoption hearings scheduled to take place during the summer of 2021 or later in person, assuming it is determined safe to do so by local and state agencies.
Community engagement will include, but will not be limited to, the following:
• Providing information in easily-accessible formats, such as social media (the City’s as well as community groups’ and school districts’), the City’s dedicated web page for the General Plan update (on the City’s website), and via paper copies where appropriate, • Providing translation and interpretation for deliverables and at public meetings and events, • Establishing a community advisory committee to oversee and influence the planning process and community engagement efforts for the preparation of the Environmental Justice Element,
• Using the Planning Commission as an advisory body for the Land Use Element, and using its platform to reach and engage more stakeholders, and 5 • Partnering with community-based organizations, especially those that serve low-income households and special needs populations, to cultivate the trust that is required for authentic community participation during planning processes.
More information on implementing equitable and inclusive community engagement processes can be found in Chapter 3 of the California Governor’s Office of Planning and Research’s General Plan Guidelines: Community Engagement and Outreach.
1.4 Outreach Coordinator
To ensure the outreach process is implemented in adherence to the goals and best practices described above, the City has designated an Outreach Coordinator. The role of the Outreach Coordinator will be to serve as a central contact for the planning team and stakeholders with respect to public engagement. Specifically, the Outreach Coordinator will be responsible for posting web-page, social media, and survey content through the City’s website and other channels as appropriate. The contact information for the Outreach Coordinator is listed below:
Sue Jones, Public Information Officer
City Manager’s Department
[email protected]
(760) 955-5028
2. Coordinated Public Engagement
Recognizing residents’ limited time and attention and to avoid community engagement fatigue, the City will work to identify opportunities to streamline the various planning processes, while also leveraging existing partnerships and community networks created in prior engagement processes.
Outreach efforts will be synchronized across General Plan elements when there are synergies between these separate efforts.
2.1 Webpage
The City, with support from the consultant team, will update their General Plan webpage on the City website that would serve as a landing page for the General Plan update. The landing page will have an overview of the General Plan update process, including:
• One-two paragraph description of the GP Update project; • Link to a “What is a General Plan” document in Spanish and English; • Project timeline graphic; and
• Notices of upcoming meetings/workshops.
In addition to this overview, the landing page would include buttons that would lead to individual pages with more Element-specific information, including current project status. For instance, the Housing Element page would include basic information about what a housing element is and why it is regularly updated, define terms like RHNA, provide the update’s current status, and perhaps include any relevant maps.
The City’s homepage will have an announcement that the General Plan is being updated, with a link to the General Plan landing page. The homepage could also have announcements of 6 opportunities to be involved in advance of each of the workshops, again with a link to the page with the workshop announcement and Zoom webinar link.
Table 1 describes the point person responsible for webpage content. All webpage content will be submitted to the City in January, 2021. The Outreach Coordinator is responsible for creating/updating the City website with the content provided by the consultant team. This ensures the City has an opportunity to review and approve the content prior to uploading it to their website.
Table 1: Webpage Content Deliverables
2.2 Social Media
Similarly, the consultant team will create content to promote the project public meetings on the City’s social media accounts, and the Outreach Coordinator will be responsible for posting to their various accounts. The designated facilitator for each public workshop will be responsible for submitting social media post content to the Outreach Coordinator two weeks prior to the workshop.
2.3 Community Surveys
In an effort not to over-burden the community and be respectful of their time, the consultant team will prepare two surveys to support the update of the four separate General Plan Elements.
One community survey will focus on housing and will include a few questions on land use.
Similarly, the environmental justice element survey will include a few questions related to community safety. However, Harris & Associates will primarily rely on survey responses from the City’s local hazard mitigation planning effort to inform the development of the Safety Element. The consultant team will draft the survey questions for both surveys and submit to the City for review and feedback before integrating into a survey platform. The consultant team will use ESRI’s Survey 123 as the survey platform.
2.4 Workshops
The workshops will be element-specific in order to meet the time frames prescribed by the State.
Workshops will be hosted over Zoom, either using the City’s Zoom account or a Harris Zoom account. Public meetings that require translation services will be hosted over the City’s Zoom account. The choice of account will depend on whether the workshop coincides with a public meeting (e.g., the Land Use Element workshops held during Planning Commission meetings) and City staff’s preferences.

The Planning Commission and City Council will be asked to share ways to be involved by announcing upcoming General Plan workshops during their regular meetings. All workshops will be virtual Zoom meetings that will feature a PowerPoint presentation and will allow participants to provide comments and ask questions during the meeting. Presentations, meeting minutes, and recordings will be posted on the respective webpage within a week of each workshop.
3. Element Specific Engagement Plan
The following section outlines specific public engagement strategies for each element.
3.1 Housing Element Engagement Plan
Harris & Associates will organize and lead two public workshops to support the Housing Element update. The two workshops will be focused on the Housing Element update. These workshops will be scheduled as special Planning Commission meetings. Simultaneous Spanish interpretation will be provided, subject to technical capacity.
The process will include the following:
• City staff will prepare a list of community stakeholders including community-based organizations, local schools, and other stakeholders, including contact names and email addresses.
• Harris will prepare the following for City staff review 2 weeks prior to workshops:
o Notices for each workshop (City staff will provide the Zoom link, and Harris will provide Spanish translation following staff’s approval of the English versions). o Draft email to send to community organizations and school districts containing the following:
Request that the notices be posted on their social media accounts. Statement to be read at community organization and school district meetings.
Feedback on best ways to engage stakeholder (including hard-copy paper notices and surveys).
o Final versions of all documents will be completed 5 days prior to the notice for the first workshop.
• Harris will prepare draft survey questions (link to survey to be provided in the notice for the 1
st meeting) with Spanish translation. The survey will remain open until about a week before the second workshop. Preliminary survey results will be shared at the first workshop, while final survey results will be shared at the second workshop. • Outreach Coordinator and City staff will: -
o Post each workshop notice on the City’s social media accounts, the City’s website and the Housing Element webpage at least 10 days prior to each meeting. 8 o Email all identified community organizations and school districts with the following:
Request that the notice be posted on their social media accounts. Statement to be read at community organization and school district meetings.
Feedback on best ways to engage stakeholder (including hard-copy paper notices and surveys)
o Oversee delivery of paper copies of notices and surveys (total number of copies TBD)
o Ensure adequate paper copies of the notices and surveys are available at City Hall (and replenish copies as they run low).
o Install a drop-box for completed surveys in a highly visible and central location at City Hall (and ensure that the box is emptied regularly). Oversee scanning all surveys and emailing scanned copies to Harris weekly.
o Record City-hosted workshops and post the recordings on the Housing Element webpage, YouTube, and the City’s Facebook page.
• Harris will prepare meeting minutes and transmit them to the City within five business days following each workshop.
Housing Element Workshop #1: General Plan Updates Overview & Housing Element Kick-off
The notice for the first Housing Element workshop will include a link to a survey for all stakeholders. The first workshop will begin with an overview of the City’s General Plan Elements update process, including a brief explanation of the Housing, Land Use, Environmental Justice, and Safety Elements. The rest of the meeting will focus on the Housing Element. This will include an explanation of what a Housing Element is, the process to update the Housing Element, a presentation about areas of the City being considered as focus areas for the sites inventory, and gathering public input and comments. Harris and City staff will request that all attendees complete the survey (link provided in the notice) and encourage others to complete the survey.
Housing Element Workshop #2: Housing Element Sites and Policies The second Housing Element meeting will include a presentation of potential sites for the draft site inventory and an overview of proposed policies and programs to achieve the City’s housing goals and an opportunity for public input and comments. The survey will close approximately a week before the second workshop so that a final update of the survey results will be presented at the workshop.
Joint Planning Commission / City Council Hearing: Draft Housing Element Harris will present a draft Housing Element at a joint Planning Commission / City Council hearing. This meeting will enable submission of the draft Housing Element to HCD. Feedback from the Planning Commission, City Council, and public at large can be incorporated into the Housing Element even after this time. The feedback will be incorporated, along with feedback from HCD, into a final Housing Element to be presented to the Planning Commission and the 9 City Council for approval. In total, there will be five workshops / public meetings for the Housing Element.
3.2 Land Use Element Engagement Plan
CityPlace Planning will hold two special Planning Commission meetings to allow the Planning Commission to serve as the advisory body for the Land Use Element update. Since the two Planning Commission meetings will be in addition to their regularly scheduled meetings, the Land Use Element Workshops will be the sole focus of these meetings. Simultaneous Spanish interpretation will be provided, subject to technical capacity. The process will include the following:
• City staff will add to the list of community stakeholders prepared as part of the Housing Element Workshops, to include parties interested primarily in the Land Use Element, e.g., developers, the real estate community, and large landowners, including contact names and email addresses.
• CityPlace Planning will prepare the following for City staff review 2 weeks prior to workshops:
o Notices for each workshop (City staff will provide the Zoom link, and CityPlace Planning will provide Spanish translation following staff’s approval of the English versions).
o Draft email to send to the above-referenced list of community stakeholders containing the following:
Request that the notices be posted on their social media accounts. Statement to be read at community organization, school district and other public meetings.
Request their feedback regarding how best to notify stakeholders of opportunities to be involved in the Land Use Element Update. o Final versions of all documents will be completed 5 days prior to the notice for the first workshop.
• Outreach Coordinator and City staff will:
o Post each workshop notice on the City’s social media accounts, the City’s website and the Land Use Element webpage at least 10 days prior to each meeting. o Email all identified community organizations, school districts, and additional stakeholders with the following:
Request that the notice be posted on their social media accounts. Statement to be read at community organization and school district meetings.
Feedback on best ways to engage stakeholders, e.g., hard-copy paper notices.
o Oversee delivery of paper copies of notices (total number of copies TBD) o Ensure adequate paper copies of the notices and surveys are available at City Hall (and replenish copies as they run low).
o Record both workshops and post the recordings on the Land Use Element webpage and post on YouTube and the City’s Facebook page. • City Place Planning will prepare meeting minutes and transmit them to the City within five business days following each workshop.
10 Land Use Element Workshop #1:
The first Land Use Element (LUE) workshop will start with a brief explanation of what a LUE is and why it is important. CityPlace Planning will then conduct an interactive exercise to discuss issues and opportunities with the participants and collect input. A visioning exercise will follow, reviewing the existing vision and determining if changes are needed and what those changes should entail. The project team will then present potential Opportunity Areas (OAs), which are areas where change may be expected and encouraged and ask for input; additional OAs may be identified at the workshop. The meeting will conclude with a discussion of the Housing Element sites inventory to show how the Housing Element will necessitate some of the proposed land use changes.
Land Use Element Workshop #2:
The second Land Use Element workshop will provide an opportunity to present the Draft Land Use Plan, Vision, and Draft Goals, Objectives and Policies to the Planning Commission and other meeting participants, and gather feedback. CityPlace Planning will also present the two land use alternatives and ask for input from the attendees. The project team will encourage the Planning Commissioners to arrive at consensus on the preferred land use alternative.
Joint Planning Commission / City Council Hearing: Draft Land Use Element CityPlace Planning will present a draft Land Use Element at a joint Planning Commission / City Council hearing. This meeting will be used to get feedback from the Planning Commission and the City Council (as well as from the public at large). The feedback will be incorporated into a final Land Use Element, to be submitted to the Planning Commission and the City Council for approval after the associated Environmental Impact Report is complete. In total, there will be five workshops / public meetings for the Land Use Element.
3.3 Environmental Justice & Safety Element Engagement Plan Environmental Justice
Harris & Associates will assist the City in establishing a Community Advisory Committee (CAC) to support the development of the Environmental Justice Element. The purpose of establishing a CAC is to involve members of the community who do not traditionally participate in local decision-making processes that affect their environment and quality of life. The CAC will play a key role in helping maximize involvement in the planning process. The Environmental Justice Element Survey will provide an opportunity for the public to indicate interest in participating in the CAC. Harris suggests the CAC be limited to 10 active members.
Spanish translation will be offered to CAC members prior to the Kick-off meeting.
All CAC meetings will be closed session meetings in order to create a space for community members to feel comfortable sharing their opinions and experiences with City staff. Meetings of temporary advisory committees—as distinguished from standing committees—made up solely of less than a quorum of a legislative body are not subject to the Brown Act, and therefore are not required to be public. Harris will facilitate three CAC meetings:
11 1. Kick-Off
The purpose of this meeting is to present information on the Environmental Justice planning process and the CAC’s role, present the results of the first community survey, and solicit feedback on how best to engage with hard-to-reach residents and disadvantaged communities to ensure their perspectives and experiences inform the development of environmental justice goals and objectives. Importantly, the planning team will present the CAC By-Laws (Appendix A) for CAC members to discuss, edit if necessary, and adopt. The by-laws will help the City and CAC come to consensus on how CAC members will participate in the planning process and conduct themselves during CAC meetings.
2. Existing Conditions
The purpose of this meeting is to present and solicit feedback on the Existing Conditions assessment. The CAC will validate that the data and indicators used are consistent with CAC members’ experiences and local knowledge (“ground-truth”).
3. Objectives and Policies
The purpose of this meeting is to solicit feedback on proposed objectives and policies to include in the Environmental Justice Element.
Preparation for the CAC meetings will be a shared responsibility among City Staff and Harris. • City Staff will be responsible for:
o Identifying community representatives, members, and activists; community-based organizations; public health officials, and other groups that have a history of under-representation in civic proceedings to participate in the CAC o Selecting CAC members
• Harris will be responsible for:
o Drafting email invitation and meeting agenda 3 weeks prior to meetings o Drafting meeting presentation materials 2 weeks prior to meetings o Providing meeting minutes within 3 business days following each meeting
To support the development of the Safety Element, Harris will work with the City to form a Safety Committee that includes representatives from departments or agencies involved with police, fire, water, sewer, storm water, power, parks, and education. As is the case for CAC Meetings, all Safety Committee meetings are closed meetings. Harris will facilitate two Safety Committee meetings:
1. Plan Update Process and Existing Conditions
Harris will review the Safety Element update process, including existing state legislation driving the Safety Element update. Harris will also present the topics and hazards that will be covered in the safety element update. This first meeting will provide an opportunity to document the conditions of public facilities and services in the community, including fire protection services, emergency medical services, and law enforcement and their associated response times. 12 2. Goal and Policy Development
The purpose of this meeting is to solicit input from the Safety Committee on draft Safety Element goals, policies, and implementation actions.
Preparation for the CAC meetings will be a shared responsibility among City Staff and Harris. • City Staff will be responsible for:
o Identifying key stakeholders including police, fire, water, sewer, storm water, power, parks, and education to serve on the Safety Committee. • Harris will be responsible for:
o Drafting email invitation and meeting agenda 3 weeks prior to meetings o Drafting meeting presentation materials 2 weeks prior to meetings o Providing meeting minutes within 3 business days following each meeting
Joint Public Workshop
In addition to Community Advisory & Safety Committee Meetings, the planning process for the Environmental Justice Element and Safety Element will feature a public workshop to provide the general public an opportunity to voice their input on the Environmental Justice and Safety Elements. After the Public Review Drafts have been posted, Harris & Associates will be responsible for facilitating a joint Planning Commission/City Council Public Workshop to share key findings, present goals and strategies, and solicit feedback on the Draft Environmental Justice and Safety Elements. In addition to providing a forum for the general public to express their feedback on the Draft Plans, the workshop will provide planning commission members and council members the opportunity to ask questions prior to adoption hearings.
• Harris will be responsible for:
o Drafting email invitation and meeting agenda 3 weeks prior to workshop o Drafting workshop presentation materials 2 weeks prior to workshop o Providing meeting minutes within 3 business days following the workshop • City Staff will be responsible for:
o Coordinating with Planning Commission and City Council to set workshop date o Distributing email invitation and agenda to Planning Commission and City Council 2 weeks prior to meetings
• The Outreach Coordinator will be responsible for:
o Posting the Public Review Draft on the City’s webpage o Posting workshop notice on the City’s social media accounts, the City’s website and the Element webpages at least 10 days prior to the workshop. o Posting agenda, presentations, and meeting minutes to the website following the workshop

Wish there were more condominimum / townhome developments for purchase, as there are in 909, greater LA, etc.
Safety, cleanliness, house rentals are not maintained.
In Cypress Pointe our needs are met due to the HOA, can't say the same for rest of Victorville.
I live in a relatively nice, quiet and safe community but I always fear that nearby communities will bring unwanted activities and crime into my neighborhood.
We are in need of additional affordable housing.
More HOA development, I want out of our current area of VV & want more options of HOA with a single story and fireplace.

Streets are horrible need repairing especially on Bear valley near 15fwy.
Gangs and drugs and a lot of police people.
Find safe neighborhoods.
All around VV you will find beautiful homes, great price however if you look a few homes down you will see weeds, cars parked on jacks, or rocks/dead grass in front yard, big cabs on driveways, no curb appeal. This is not desirable, need more HOA's.
Not enough HOA Communities in Victorville giving the city only pockets of communities w/curb appeal, parks the city does not have to pay to maintain, the rest of the city has blocks that are beautiful then turn the corner & make sure your doors are locked.
We need more HOA communities.
You need to have builders build more HOA communities. The HOA keeps the homes looking nice, safe & less strain on the city who currently can't handle the load or the city would not look so bad! We have little to no homeless assistance facilities in this area.
Nice homes surrounded by or are located in section 8 areas.
Neighborhood quality.
City does not enforce code violations ! City lack respect for the city. They appear to not care.
No entertainments.
Not enough walking/biking space for people to feel safe doing so. Not enough lighting, dog parks.
Homeowners/Renters not keeping up yard and home. Beautiful homes that are not being taken care of.
Please make more HOA communities Such as condos, Townhomes, and single family residence.
To much low income housing and crime
Too high a percentage of rental properties taking away from owner occupied homes. Which in turn has decreased the average property exterior conditions and increased crime rates.
Homeless and a lot of illegal dumping/trash
Too many homeless too close to neighborhoods.
We need more parks and open areas.

HOA Communities to keep curb appeal & less strain on city to maintain (parks, code issues, curb appeal, add more tax dollars to the city along with jobs & so on).
Do not do more in regards to homeless, Victorville has the most homeless in the High Desert than any surrounding neighboring city.
We need more HOA communities .
HOA Communities Only, it adds to the value of the homes in the area & people who buy into HOA's know they have to follow rules & brings better quality of residents.
No more housing should be built. Already overcrowded and streets aren’t even being taking care of for the neighborhoods we already have.
Victorville already achieves plenty of homes that are described in the categories above. nicer communities that bring in people who want to live and invest in the city.
What is really needed in the City to do their job. Maintain city codes, so we don't end up like a "Hill Billy Haven"!
Insist on HOA to make this city at least look nice. Clearly what has been done with out HOA doesn't work. You have nice homes with surrounding homes, neighbors who do what they want.
Without HOA the crime rate will continue to rise with value declining. community land trusts, limited equity cooperative housing.
All levels of housing need to be considered. There is a need on every level. 57 15. What do you think can be done to address these issues (questions 13 and 14)?

# 13 Hire more employees.
# 14 a senior housing in downtown. There is much land available.
Affordable housing has been the biggest obstacle. And non accepting large pets in the housing Allocate more land for park and recreation services.
Allow builders to come in to develop condos, townhomes and single-family units with HOA's this way the city will always have a steady stream of revenue for backflow testing, HOA communities require residents to maintain properties and in doing so residents will be shopping local, hiring locally to comply w/the HOA.
HOA's require insurance that could also drive local insurance agents. Condo's & Townhomes require fire sprinklers & annual inspection along w/5 yr interior inspection to ensure the sprinklers are in working condition. With that being said the amount of jobs, tax dollars along with other revenue to the city is huge.
Allow such development to happen
Beautification of the city
Various levels of support for the homeless
better the conditions of neighborhoods
Build more homes
Build at least one trauma center hospital. Build industrial complexes. That brings higher paying jobs instead of car wash's and fast food minimum wage jobs that leave people struggling to pay rent. That will then bring a need for new housing developments while still maintaining old developments. Stop fleecing the developers with impact fees and hurting residents . The city puts tax dollars and fees ahead of its citizens. More sheriffs to make are city safer so that people will want to move to it instead of referring to it as Victorville.
Build more affordable housing units.
Build more duplexes, families want to have more privacy and not have to share walls with neighbors.
Build more single family units.
Build senior buildings.
Building the facility is great but also building a subsidize housing facility that helps the homeless. And some thing that we could also become a sort of revenue that pays for itself charging homeless a sort of fee. No I’m not aware of any memorandums that are required or anything like that I don’t know the red tape but we could do that and figure out how much that would be that something that we know would be a help and not a hindrance to help transition them. Again I don’t know if there is a program like that it’s already been established with you but this is what I would like to know.
City of Victorville can pump life back into the community by buying commercial spaces in the areas where homeless are and turn them into emergency shelters and services that the homeless will need at any time of the year. Our weather is usually always inclimate and I’m sure they can agree they could still use shelter even if it’s over 40° at night. Purchasing the available commercial spaces allows the community to give these buildings a purpose and not sit around to be vandalized or destroyed. The new campus plans for the homeless services is a great idea but will take time to build and bring to life and they need something for now and also options for those who just can’t seem to stay sober even though they would like to get out of the heat/cold too.
City staff should apply to state grants like Homekey and Roomkey.
Clean up the homeless problem!
Clean up the streets and build smaller affordable homes for smaller families.
Code enforcement and more police to deter crime. Cleaner landscaping. Make Victorville a place people want to stay and raise their family not a place to wish they can leave.
Commercial business with above housing to meet zoning requirements or change in zoning . Rebates or incentives for builders. Percentage of homes built or apartments for affordable housing . 58 Responses (Cont.)
Definitely add more street light, at the end of Montecito Dr there is 0 street light beside my motion sensor and it is ridiculous. S o many strangers drive towards the end of Montecito Dr and get into the “desert -y” area with there entire car and God knows what they do.
Encourage that type of development.
financial resources for those seeking to purchase
Get people on the city board to have respect and love for VV. People who will do their job and enforce code violations. Why have city codes if the city will not enforce them ! All new residents to VV should be issued a copy of the city codes. I have lived here > 37 years. It has gone downhill . The sad thing about this is, not a da
m thing will be done !
Get the homeless away from neighborhoods.
Give funding to organizations doing shared living, transitional programs that serve low income young adults and single parents/pregnant young adults. Getting funding for these smaller organizations is very difficult.
Most funding is given to repeat recipients and large organizations. Many opportunities are passed over and l
imits their ability to provide housing options that are much needed and wanted.
Hire local
Hire more law enforcement officers to help with the crime & graffiti that has invaded Victorville. I've lived in my home in Victorville for 30 plus years and the crime and graffiti has gotten out of hand. Get rid of Blanca Gomez.
Hire people locally not from down the hill .where it's more expensive Holding neighbors and neighborhoods to code informant when it comes to trash or how their yards look.
Keeping the crime out of our neighborhoods.
Homeless need somewhere to sleep at night.
Hosing Advocacy with input from stakeholders from various segments of the building, funding, advocacy organizations/collaborations, city staff, homeowners, business owners...
I believe that focusing on affordable housing programs along with supportive services would play an important part in addressing these issues.
I feel I need to be more educated on these issues. Before I can give a responsible answer.
I feel that we need more single family housing, I also feel you cannot mix single family housing with apartments, It brings down the value of property and the conditions of single family neighborhoods. If apartments need to be built they need to be in areas where they already exist.
If we have more HOA communities in Victorville, the communities could give to the families clean parks, keeping the value of their property, c ity of Victorville doesn ’t need to pay for maintenance of parks, low crimes, clean communities etc etc
Implement policies, systems & environmental changes to address the issues.
Incentivize businesses and hospitals to open in Victorville Have the city finish sidewalks and lighting throughout the city Incentivize home builders so they purchase land and build both SFR and Townhomes Increase in law enforcement and fire, increase public safety, cleaner safer neighborhoods Increase policy and code enforcement officers. 2 weeks response time for code enforcement to go inspect a situation is too long. I have called the police about intruders in my yard and officer never shows up. 59 Responses (Cont.)
Instead of focusing so much on low income accommodations focus more on average to above average construction
Invest tax payers money in. social programs for residents benefits Limit the amount of section 8 residents in the nicer communities of Victorville. Typically, some section 8 residents tend to bring down the overall appearance & safety of the neighborhood/community. This seems to have an affect on property value and discourages stable and working families from moving into the area.
More Action is needed implementing the housing issues in the City of Victorville instead of the continous meetings that aren't going anywhere wasting time when the issues needs to begin now.
More affordable housing gor the younger startup families.
More code enforcement
More law enforcement
A homeless shelter that would be adequate to get the homeless off the streets. Doing that will enable law- enforcement to pick up homeless individuals who do not seek help but want to panhandle on our street and shopping centers
More homeless services/shelters.
More dumping/recycling programs.
More pride in the city. Restore historical sites and roads. More activities and nature preservation for locals to enjoy.
offer assistance to first time home buyers and families with children Only allow builders who want to build in Victorville to make HOA Communities. They could put in parks, walking trails, tot lots and all would be maintained by the HOA and it would allow for a better quality of life in Victorville. HOA cost can be as low as $36.00 - $50.00 per month on single family residance with 250 + homes and that would cover all needed to keep up the community to relieve the strain on the city. They also add tax dollars and jobs to the local economy in Victorville.
Pass an inclusive housing ordinance, with a required percentage of units made affordable with no option for in lieu fees. City staff should apply to state grants like Homekey and Roomkey. Decrease minimum lot for single family homes size by 1/2. Provide technical support to people who are interested in building ADUs.

Provide city owned property to individual investors (not large builders) willing to construct multifamily units for sale.

Reduce as much as possible the red tape and regulations that in getting a way of building for providing affordable housing. Allow for adus on lots that support them.
Rent fixing/regulation on rent increases
Research the city of Eastvale & Fontana. They clearly understand working to make those cities more desirable. From parks, HOA, helping small businesses, shopping, old town, community needs. People move to VV because they can't afford to live in areas they would like. We need to do all that can be done to get them to embrace living in VV & love it. This way it will become desirable vs a dumping ground for homeless, inmate releases, investors buying homes to rent to low-end people just to clean up down the hill of the crime, they make it more attractive to send them to VV. HOA communities bring in big bucks to the local economy & people who live in them are more likely to get involved in the community, bring value to the city in a positive way vs what VV currently is and has been dealing with for the past 20 years.
Review the neighborhood conditions, determine funding abilities to provide better quality neighborhoods, enforce section 8 expectations, limit the amount of section 8 houses in each neighborhood.
Evaluate the crime in each neighborhood and encourage neighborhood watches.
Strongly advertise government programs for modifying and updating older houses.
Neighborhood yard competitions, neighborhood socialization programs (COVID compliant).
Street and lot cleaning days.
Partner with community agencies like churches or daycares to provide safe havens for foster youth, homeless resources, etc.
Since Measure P has passed I think immediate actin needs to be taken in repairing the roadways on Bear Valley a very congested street and the roads surrounding restaurant row. Also, there should be speed bumps placed to slow traffic on more streets like Luna Rd. A very busy street as well.
Start a large gated community that helps people who work here and want to live here in a safe, robust community that is well-lit with community amenities. We need to attract people who want to live in up-scale homes who will attract larger businesses that have been hard to come by. Like Sprouts, Wholefoods, entertainment options, and restaurants.
Starter homes for young families and younger adults. Tiny homes for seniors (elderly veterans and civilians) Streamline the process, market opportunity zones, adopt a finance mechanism such as an affordable housing bond and/or affordable housing fund, adopt density bonuses, maximize unused space such as unused commercial buildings by amending zoning to allow for mixed commercial and residential use. Help people move into ownership by working with banks to maximize first time home buyer programs, promote the development of multi-family units not just track homes. Build smaller units on smaller lots that are affordable for people on fixed income and/or the growing millennial population that cannot afford large mortgage loans due to student loan barriers.
That's a good question! I'm not sure.
The City of Victorville should hold town meetings and between the city officials and concerned residents come up with solutions to the problems.
The housing in Victorville does not offer any range for the higher income demographic. It is well known that if yo0u want a nice home, you have to move to Apple Valley. There are no gated communities or large parcels. There needs to be some different development standards like Orange County or Rancho Cucamonga.
The roads have trees and wide landscaped right-of-ways. All of SoCal is a desert. Have some areas that feel like a higher end City. Otherwise Victorville will be the "Moreno Valley" of the HD.
There are many existing home tracts that are isolated, with no local parks, and no easy access to commercial areas. Isolation is fine for communities like Phelan, but Victorville is more of a city, and should feel more like it.
There must be some kind of law to the rent increase and price of renting a home in the high desert. 61 16. What type of single family (detached) communities are needed in the City of Victorville?
Responses (Cont.)
There needs to be apts set-up for low income/senior housing. My sister in-law is considered low income and she cannot afford an apt. in Victorville, with the exception of down by 7th Street, and the crime rate over there is ridiculous and not at all safe for anyone. Also, need to start tearing down the dilapidated buildings where crime is high and homeless live and put up new apts. and/or houses. There is no reason why these buildings are just sitting there. They are an eyesore and do nothing but promote illegal activity and keep potential new residents from moving into the area. Victorville is now considered the new "Watts". That is not something this town should be proud of. This city has a lot to offer, unfortunately it is going from bad to worse as more and more decent residents and businesses are leaving.
We need atleast 2 libraries in better locations
We need to actively sell more land and utilize prefab construction techniques because it is quicker and more affordable.
Well for starters. We need more urban infrastructure in this city. Fix the areas where they should have sidewalks and remove the excess amount of dirt piled up. Ex: Armargosa towards village. Add more pleasing to the eye street lights that will make it safer to have casual strolls. The streets are torn up turning into gravel and just does not feel comfortable to drive on. Small cracks in the streets will turn into large pot holes soon.
Allowing for these positive changes to occur will change the surrounding areas to be more livable and safer for community members/ citizens of Victorville. We will start to pull in a more positive demographic. Much more suburban.
When new builders come in, enforce HOA communities! If you look down the hill, most new builders are making HOA communities & the values are up due to amenities, safety, curb appeal. VV has a model HOA Cypress Pointe & the amount of tax revenue for local business and less strain on city code enforcement, home values & quality of life speaks for itself. They have community events upwards of $15K per year that goes to local business, landscaper, backflow, insurance, contractors, electricians, security, security cameras just as a few of what goes back into the city when you have HOA's. Another thing done in HOA's is yard of the month, $50.00 gift card to Lowes/Home Depot to motivate residents to keep the curb appeal. Home decorating contest for Christmas/Halloween to keep community spirit & make for residents want to stay in VV & with the gift card the HOA provides they use it at local stors giving more tax revene. So far of the current council only Deborah Jones as been to an event.
You need to create jobs in the city limits that way people can spend more time with their families and cut down on traffic in the pass. Better quality restaurants and entertainment in the city for example a waterpark here in the city for the kids new skating rinks, then we can spend our money here in the city instead of Ontario.

HOA Communities to help clean up the area of Victorville.
I think the more housing developments that we have the more people we could get into those developments.
Rather than building large communities and taking away the small city environment, pursue investors to update older neighborhoods that will fix the integrity of older areas of VV.
You need to have a variety, otherwise discrimination could become an issue.
NO SECTION 8 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SAFE AND AFFORDABLE HOUSING
More homes with 5 or higher number of bedrooms.
All of the above with HOA's as the city of VV does not have the resources to address what an HOA can. This will allow for the city to address homeless & other needed items & use tax $$ more efficiently.
Smaller homes for senior citizens and houses with a large backyard (for owners to be able to extend square footage, in the future)
The HD is affordable per California standards. But a large segment of the population's salary increases/wages do not match healthy indexes for home ownership which is a known factor to halt generational poverty. Affordable housing must be a priority.

Yes I think that we could do this with developments By charging again them an HO a that is subsidized again to help pay for itself I’ll pay back the city where ever the money comes from.
No more developments.
Yes, but with affordable dues.
If the city would just do their job, you won't need HOAs.
Thats an extra cost mist cant afford.
I think that with many people's income leve, it would be difficult to be an owner. Ownership is always a great thing to have, I just don't believe that it would be the best thing for the mass majority of those who are faced with housing problems.

Small, private investor opportunities, incentives, rezoning, financing assistance.

The city should welcome more contractors to devolpe. Give them more incentives to build here.
Not sure what the factors are. But I see huge plats of undeveloped land sitting for sale, and know there is the demand if residential were built on them. Unclear to me why so much undeveloped land is sitting vacant. (For example, on Hook Blvd / Amargosa / Seneca Rd area. This is a prime location near the courthouse, I-15 exits, grocery stores.) We cannot let non-profit developers take on these projects as they build on unrealistic margins. Also, we need to create prefab affordable housing because the price per unit is lower and quality is not compromised.
Jobs, corruption and crime.
The city of Victorville could work closely with builders in building affordable houses with rules like HOA communities that mostly prevent crime.

I think if the barriers could be reached by subsidize housing that’s helping low income families especially now in this time that can’t afford but still are paying something on an HOA.
Poor conditions in city do not attract buyers.
Safer Neighborhoods, more law enforcement and public safety, less homeless and crime rates, cleaner streets and vacant land.
Actionable plans & policies that can be easily & efficiently implemented.
There are not enough houses being built for the needs of first-time home buyers. The availability of houses in desired areas are scarce. There needs to be more construction of parks, schools, and grocery stores that are convenient for people.
Financial support and or resources.
The City needs to work with the developers to come up with a plan as to make affordable housing beneficial. I can see that developers don't want to build as there is a likelihood they will not get their money out of the project. Unless someone upgrades the surrounding areas of affordable housing and make the area safe to live in, you will only get residents who don't care and won't maintain their living space, which drives down property values and again, you have more of a "crime neighborhood" instead of an affordable house/apartment/condo. I understand there is a huge homeless problem in Victorville and that needs to be dealt with on a separate issue, but lets get some of the existing areas cleaned up and usable, instead of having it become a huge garbage dump for homeless, gangs, drug dealers, etc.
Get people on the city board to have respect and love for VV. People who will do their job and enforce code violations. Why have city codes if the city will not enforce them ! All new residents to VV should be issued a copy of the city codes.

I believe that developers that purchased lots leave them unattended and inaccessible to maintain while they are not being constructed on. Allowing for constant overgrowth of weeds and or for the city to do anything constructive with that purchased lot as well as the streets. WE could really utilize the purchased lots for the city like adding parks and or sidewalks and or brick walls with plants or leafy desert plants. Anything to really enhance the appeal of some of these streets with empty lots. For example village and oceanside! Streamline the process for developers, create a local funding mechanism.
Need open minded decision makers.
Personally if feel that what's being built is already more affordable. That's why so many people are looking for homes in the area. More low income development isn't of interest to me.
Advocacy with a strong dose of reality.
city codes to reflect the current needs.
Mello-roos should not be allowed, effects mortgage lending. Too many rental properties decrease the appeal of neighborhoods. City entitlement and building fees are too high.
School fees are too high.
Builder incentives.
Create j good paying jobs great entertainment and restaurant so families can spend money here in the city and spend more time in our city.
Economics stand in the way of this, primarily, but should housing/land prices drop, the City should take advantage of this to plan for affordable housing.
I don't have a good answer for that right now.
Hire local.
The development costs can be quite high and therefore developers or builders pass on the cost to the homeowner. Permits, fees, etc need to be re-evaluated to make sure that the costs of development is less and hence lower price for prospective homeowners. 66 19.

Enforce existing laws for trash and littering in encampments.
Thank you!
Have greater input from people in the age range from 20-35 years old. We need to continue to hold the youth of Victorville so they can invest in the community instead of leaving elsewhere to fulfill their goals and ambitions. If we work to provide better-paying jobs, with entertainment, housing, and opportunity more people will stay and better the community. support the homeless and low-income community
You need to get a developer in and plan out the area. Not only is housing needed, but the surrounding area needs to be updated. Plan a housing area with a park surrounding it, or bike trails, something that makes the area more appealing and gives residents some pride in their area and makes people want to live in Victorville instead of move out because the homeless and crime rate has made it unsafe for anyone to live here.
Too many to state. I've lived here off and on since the late 70's. Present home about 37 years.
I've become very disheartened with VV. It's not a housing issue, it's the lack of care/control from the city. You want more housing , yet you (City), can't seem to take/control off what is here ! VV is seen as a little country town with no care about how your home looks like. No pride in their homes. No lawn/house care, Hilly Billy parking lots ( 5 cars on your front lawn) and trash/multiple items out front. Could go on, but I'm sure you get the picture. More hosing, more of the same issues. That is until the city start doing their job. Implausible .
Please consider some type of law or ordinance on rent
The City of Victorville needs a Girls and Boys facility so the youth in the community can go to were it is safe for resources after school.
Please include new and/or small programs in funding. Give these projects a fair chance at funding so they can offer diverse housing types to the community.
You need to make the public aware of future development... either thru news, radio, newspaper... some type of communication to the community.... 72 Other Responses (Cont.)
We want the High Desert to remain affordable for young people! Incentivizing ADUs, streamlining the permitting process, allowing for more multi-family units, encouraging the development of co-ops, lowering minimum lot size, and building around transit will help us keep the desert accessible for everyone who wants to live here.
Decrease minimum lot for single family homes size by 1/2. Provide technical support to people who are interested in building ADUs.
If we had better schools and or better assortment of schools up here in the category as safe and high in education, I guarantee that more people would live and or move up here to start a family. If there is anyway I can be more involved in aiding or contributing to the beautification and or capitol improvement to the city of Victorville I would do it and I am available to do so.
So please try and listen to the needs of the citizens of Victorville and help bring this city from its already low standards to a higher one; to a place people could feel like " Yeah My city is the next Beverly hills". I know that's far out there but hey, Why cant we be nice like orange county.
I would like to participate in the Community Advisory Committee (CAC). I have lived in Victorville for six years. I work throughout the High Desert with a heavy focus in Victorville and have a pulse on community needs due to my community outreach and organizing background. I have a masters degree in urban planning from USC and I would be honored to work with my neighbors, partners and the Harris and Associates team to help shape the future of my city that leads to equitable growth and development.
Not at this time
update building to meet current needs by residents
Sidewalks and bike lanes on bear valley. Sidewalks and crosswalks on Eagle Ranch parkway for student safety. Bear Valley road replaced west of Amethyst. Stop wasting money on power plant and train spur failure type projects.
One of the things we liked most about the house we bought, is the open desert that surrounds our neighborhood. We would like to see that stay intact.
Wish would include sidewalks on Las Piedra's Dr in Victorville but I don't see how it will fit unless redevelop all around the neighborhood
I have property along east side of I-15 with APN 0472-182-08 titled under JBL investments, Inc. It is currently zoned Low Density residential. The surrounding property to the south is zoned industrial, to the west is the freeway, I-15, to the north and east is the Town of Apple Valley. I am requesting the City of Victorville re-zoned my property to industrial. Thank you. 73 Community Survey

xiii. Questions & Answers
1. Scott’s comment: Make it clear for the audience that if a property is classified in a certain income category, the City is not dictating that the owner build in that income category. The site inventory will have flexibility to allow property owners to build in any income category.
2. Will the study sessions be open to the public? Yes.
3. How does the 8,146 allocation of the 6th cycle compare to the allocat
ion of the 5th cycle? It’s not vastly different for Victorville.
For SC
AG region, allocation was much larger than in 5th cycle, but SCAG sh
ifted allocation to the coast, consistent with SCAG’s
transportation plans. Current 8-year cycle was just over 7,200 units. The new cycle adds ~1,000. Some coastal cities have double or triple the number of units from the previous cycle.
4. Did we meet our RHNA numbers during the past cycle? Most cities did not meet their 5th cycle. The RHNAs are usually quite large,
and residential development can be controversial.
Clarifying, distinction between planning for units (creating capacity within the zoning code) and building the units. City adequately planned for RHNA units, but the units were not built, due to market factors and other considerations.
5. Will densities in the current general plan / zoning be considered for change? We’re current in initial stages. There is a State requirement that sites designated for lower-income housing has to be 20-30 units per acre. [Postscript, this varies based on city size and location within or out of a metropolitan County. For Victorville, being located in the Riverside-San Bernardino Metro Area and having more than 25,000 residents means the
applicable density is 30 units per acre.] We will have to adhere to that requirement. We’re in the beginning stage of identifying where the sites will be located and if there will be a need for rezoning.
Stay tuned! If you would like to see density in certain places or have a density comment, please email us.
6. Will some areas be exempt from the housing target? Open space areas are exempt. Victorville has a large amount of vacant property, compared to built-out cities. We don’t anticipate a challenge to identifying sites. High fire areas, areas subject to flooding or used for agriculture will be exempt.
7. Is there planning for specific senior housing? In the housing element, we look at special groups, per a state requirement. 149
Seniors is one of the groups. Any input on the needs for senior housing, or good locations, is welcome.
8. Do we expect RHNA changes to continue, knowing that CA population growth is slowing / people are moving out of state? It does not affect the current cycle. There may be a change for the next cycle.
9. Please advise on the total number of units built in the current RHNA cycle? A lot of factors came into play – coming out of the Great Recession, the dissolution of Redevelopment. It’s less than 2,000 units.
10. Will there be any incentives for developers to build low income or senior housing? As we develop the list of sites (site inventory), we will identify the numbers of units and income levels.
The Housing Element will identify funding sources. Affordable housing requires public subsidy. That’s why it’s been a challenge.
We will identify funding sources to fill the affordability gap. There are multiple funding sources, like LIHTC and state grants, which have partially replaced Redevelopment money (for affordable housing). The financial incentives will be focused on state and federal sources. With Redevelopment dissolution in 2012, local governments don’t have funding to offer incentives, for the most part. That is one of the challenges of building affordable housing.
There will be incentives, but pieces will need to be assembled. If property owners / developers have identified impediments to development, we want to know what those are to consider zoning code changes to alleviate those impediments and replace them with incentives.
11. Scott: Housing Element relates to the Land Use Element. E.g., higher densities will be reflected in the Land Use Element update.
First Land Use Element update is schedule for February 24.
12. Scott: On the City website, you can sign up for our mailers. If you didn’t get a notice through email for this meeting, please visit the website and put in your email address.
13. Hitta: We will engage with the developer community to understand.
14. Scott’s comment: Less infrastructure on west side of town, not likely to see MFR there.

Notes
1. What are some challenges and opportunities you face as a developer while trying to develop housing / affordable housing in a community like Victorville? a. Attendee #1: Multifamily and shopping center developer. Challenge – amount of utility allowances (for affordable housing) in SB County, drastically reduces the rent and almost doesn’t make a project pencil. High cost of fees, especially on top of high construction costs (e.g., high cost of lumber). b. Attendee #5: Zoning issues, out of date general plans, and staffers not being on the same page between departments re: interpreting general plan and zoning.
Funding is always a challenge, but right now zoning issues stick out. c. Attendee #3: Only do 100% affordable. Almost always local funding or land is needed to do a project. Depending on what City is open to and what resources are available. When City is more flexible, that makes it easier, i.e., allowing developer to pursue certain types of funding.
d. Attendee #4: ED organization based out of Ontario, help developers and communities advance projects. Don’t develop housing much. Try to avoid prevailing wage by avoiding state or local funding. Would prefer to have city identify types of projects and funding sources.
e. Attendee #5: Need consistency in direction provided from Council with what staff is applying and what plans state / how they are interpreted. f. Attendee #3: In Old Town, height is dictated by what’s already built next door.
That makes it harder to build affordable housing if neighboring buildings are short.
g. Attendee #4: Prevailing wage turns away impact investors. What ends up happening is the City preps the site, leases it to a developer at market, and the developer builds a mostly market rate projects, with a few affordable units.
2. Are there any constraints with obtaining loans (construction and/or permanent) for a project in Victorville?
a. Attendee #2: SB 1 and SB 2 refilled some HCD “pots” (Joe Cerna and MHP).
MHP tie breaker is deeper affordability. It’s an issue because most cities and 160
counties don’t have vouchers, to achieve deeper affordability is very difficult. SB County is more voucher-constrained than LA County. One project was changed to veterans because of availability of VASH vouchers.
3. Have you encountered any programs, procedures, or incentives in other cities that have significantly facilitated housing development?
a. Attendee #1: Working with 3 cities. 1 is giving incentive on setback. Another city is giving density bonus, still working through details. b. SS: Cash is the biggest thing that would help. Doesn’t have to be local, could come from county. Or land if cash isn’t available. Cash, preferably as residual receipts loan. Density bonuses, etc. – State has come out with so many different things, as long as City doesn’t fight on it, it’s pretty easy to get the bonuses and additional incentives we need. Transit helps a lot. A transit oriented site that’s 100% affordable allows up to 3 stories everywhere in CA. c. DY: Impact fee waivers are helpful. Separately, in Coachella Valley, inclusionary housing fees on market rate projects are being done. In-lieu fees are helpful to create funding for affordable housing projects.
d. SS: Projects in Santa Monica with inclusionary requirements have market rate developers essentially giving land to affordable housing developers to take care of the inclusionary requirement.
e. GK: Ontario and National Core have worked to attract credit investor (bank who issued the loan) in an OZ – allowed investor to leverage the return to reduce the cost of capital. Leveraging OZ where census tracts are qualified. Victorville should look into this, speak to banks that have capital to deploy.
4. As funding for affordable housing is severely limited, what types of things can the City do to incentivize affordable housing projects (e.g., zoning, fee deferrals, streamlining, etc.)? a. SS: Streamlining and other incentives are extremely helpful. Funding is #1 helpful item. After that, anything to speed up the process is extremely helpful. b. DY: Need entitlements to apply for funding sources. Local government approval is helpful. We have used SB 35 and fast tracking with Counties. c. DH: Grand Terrace did streamlining well.
d. SS: Santa Monica does a good job with streamlining, especially for affordable housing.
e. Attendee #1: Haven’t found streamlining yet. Everything is taking way too long.
Some cities use COVID as an excuse to take longer whether to deem a submission complete.
5. Have you considered a project in Victorville or the High Desert area within the last 3 years? Why or why not?
a. Attendee #1: Currently under construction of 186 units in Hesperia. May be doing another 50 units there. These are market rate projects, due to utility allowance.
Looking at a 310 unit project in Victorville with 20% low income. b. SS: Looked at downtown land and are looking at possible ways to make it work. c. DY: Closest having come to Victorville is Apple Valley. Currently negotiating a DDA for 100 units multifamily with a health clinic component. Partnered with Providence St. Mary for mobile clinics with dental and health services. 161
d. DH: High Desert is one of the target markets. Want to be more engaged with projects in Victor Valley. Victorville approached us, and Gil was involved in the tour.
e. Attendee #1: Very vested in Hesperia and Victorville. 486 units in Victorville owned and managed. Several hundred in Hesperia. Still consider it a good market.
6. In your opinion, what are some creative housing solutions that would help a city like Victorville develop more housing / affordable housing?
a. Find funders with an appetite in investing in that market. We identified a few of them 7 or 8 months ago, but hasn’t heard much since then. b. GK: We keep looking at funders in the traditional tax credit view. There’s tons of dry capital looking to build housing, affordable and market rate, and workforce.
They need entitled projects, for pre-development phase to be done by city, local non-profits, whoever. That’s the message from OZ investors. (“Marketing package” to attract investors.)
c. SS: Cobbling together the resources that are available. Former redevelopment sites could be contributed. Fee waivers, HOME funds split with Apple Valley, former redevelopment funds, etc. Each one isn’t big, but combination can add up.
Once site is entitled, then can bring to state and leverage for bigger dollars. d. DY: Identify the sites where the City wants affordable housing. Create an RFP package. Typically, cities have land surplus list. Does Victorville not have such a list?
e. SW: We don’t. We have a group of properties that Successor Agency is trying to sell off, but don’t have a comprehensive list of properties to sell. Is one of major impediments that City doesn’t own specific lands?
f. DY: It’s definitely a lot easier to have land already owned by the City. Another resolution to consider: implement new zoning (affordable and inclusionary) into General Plan.
g. SW: Model city to refer to regarding inclusionary housing? h. DY: Work with the City of Palm Desert. Martin Alvarez is the ED Director. I can forward his information.
i. SS: For us, it’s not necessarily easier. It could make it more difficult. Would rather buy land on the market, then come to the City to get a residual receipts loan.
That’s more streamlined than working out a DDA. Given Victorville’s resources, would ask for land because City doesn’t have cash. Many cities seem to have departments with excess land. Or schools, or parking lots that are no longer needed.
7. SW: Why hasn’t Victorville seen a sizable multifamily project in the last 5 years? a. SS: First thing to mind – dissolution of RDAs took away capital. b. Attendee #1: Fees have a lot to do with it as well. City has gotten more stringent on what they are looking for. Current project – seems like City wants more like Irvine or Newport Beach-looking project. Also, if High Desert could do something about the Cajon Pass – it’s such a disaster and has gotten worse since changes were made to it. (Project is on Seneca and Cahuenga, Seneca Villas. Next door is 100% low income project. We’re working on trying to offer 20% low income.) c. GK: Need better regional collaboration among cities in High Desert. Bring in resource / development center. Many examples around the country of areas that 162
are doing something like that. Example: Paul Nolta from SBDC and I speak about creating a resource center. SB EDA and GO BIZ would back such an effort. d. DH: Good first step by merging the Chambers.
e. SW: Good point that there could be collaboration among cities, that this would help to pursue County and State funding. Are you finding that High Desert cities aren’t up to speed on resources available?
f. GK: Everybody has looked at Samson’s deal in Adelanto at relocating (?). I spoke to GO BIZ and I-Bank about ways to structure regional collaboration in the High Desert.
g. SS: There are COGs out there that are cobbling resources together for funding affordable housing. E.g., San Gabriel Valley COG. Gateway Cities COG is another one. COGs are pulling together resources for affordable housing, among doing many other things.
h. GK: WRCOG is another one. The form allows forming an EDC and applications for greater sources of funding.
i. HM: SGV has a Housing Trust that pursues LHTF funding. Member cities (there are 20) have allocated (a portion) of the PLHA grant funding.
8. Are you interested in potentially partnering with a church or religious institution for a project (per recently passed SB 899)? What could the City do to assist? a. DH: Riverside is having success with transitional housing on church property. b. SS: Experience has been that churches are not that different from market-rate owner / not that beneficial.
c. DY: Working on two projects partnering with churches, in which they get part of the developer fee. But not using bill.
9. Final Comments:
a. Attendee #1: Need about 8,200 units, right? (About that, yes.) Gil, are some of the funding sources you referenced only for 100% affordable projects? b. GK: EDC is an economic development corporation that could provide funding for different types of projects, not just housing.
c. Main message: creating joint powers / regional collaboration should focus on bringing in more CDFI, CDE, small business investment corporation, etc. into High Desert.
d. Attendee #1: Have you determined amounts of VL, L, and moderate? e. SW: Yes, that’s determined by SCAG.
f. HM: Workshop on 03/15, Planning Commission meeting to go over potential sites and proposed goals. Will also present results from survey with 100+ responses.
We encourage you to participate. Thank you for your time. g. SW: Echo Hitta’s comments.

VICTORVILLE HOUSING ELEMENT UPDATE
HOUSING DEVELOPER STRATEGY SESSION #2 NOTES
March 10, 2021 @ 1:00 PM
Meeting Notes
Attendees:
1. Attendee #1
2. City Staff #1
3. Consultant #1
4. Consultant #2
Notes
1. What are some challenges and opportunities you face as a developer while trying to develop housing / affordable housing in a community like Victorville? a. Attendee #1: Works for a large affordable housing developer in Lancaster (11 hundred units) also developed the downtown area.
i. Mostly comes down to finances for developers. Gap identified with credits and bonds. She does think there are opportunities in Victorville with the city-owned parcels.
ii. Parking is a huge issue in LA communities – skyrockets the price. Parking on grade is attractive.
iii. Also attractive to go into a community that wants to build affordable.
Developers should be strong on their own to outreach into the community on their own.
2. Have you encountered any programs, procedures, or incentives in other cities that have significantly facilitated housing development?
a. Consultant #1: Clarifying question – what are the densities that you’ve looked at in Lancaster that have made the deal work. Victorville already has some areas where the densities go up.
b. Attendee #1: 40-60 minimum. Larger projects to be no more than 120 units/acre (?). Affordable housing overlay that allows even more for folks that are going to build affordable housing.
c. Consultant #1: Do you believe that if they zone it and provide that, they will come?
d. Attendee #1: Yes because it’s always a bout making it pencil to fill the gap identified. I think how cities view their successor properties is important. There are opportunities to stimulate the economy while taking care of their homeless. 165
(i.e. $600 a month on SSI money, that’s a walking $600). Everyone who is experiencing homelessness can qualify for the $600 a month. i. I understand that we have to be fair and offer everyone a chance. Scoring transparency in scoring is very important.
ii. Public/private partnerships – ground lease, development fees, subsidy overlays. Making private money move faster
e. Consultant #1: Can you give us an example of a project that was successful? f. Attendee #1: City of LA – City-owned property – unsubordinated ground lease – 40 units of crate modular product. The developer is getting some operating subsidy. That’s a public/private partnership
i. There have been other creative partnerships like fly-away homes (private developer that builds for homeless). Have taken private money, given them a modest return and had to get buy-in from the city. ii. Modular offsets prevalent wages
g. City Staff #1: The city does not have opposition to modular construction as long as it does not just look like storage
i. Prevalent wages do not kick in until something is being built.
3. As funding for affordable housing is severely limited, what types of things can the City do to incentivize affordable housing projects (e.g., zoning, fee deferrals, streamlining, etc.)? a. Attendee #1: If there is a way for Victorville to be innovative to allow private developers to build affordable housing, but give them some sort of advantage – that would be attractive to come out to Victorville. (i.e. higher densities so they can pencil
i. Three streams, Capital A, private with a subsidy overlay, affordable tax credit, private but they’re doing the “missing middle” or workforce.
Workforce housing would be market.
4. Have you considered a project in Victorville or the High Desert area within the last 3 years? Why or why not?
a. Attendee #1: She has personally brought multiple developers (Capital A developer, private money but only want to do affordable) that want to come to areas like Victorville to build affordable. Looking for incentives like waived fees, higher density, leasing land for a dollar a year or donating it. i. If you have a mix of these folks, you can really get it going (private and credit guys). One private developer is looking to have a collective bargaining agreement. Everyone agrees to reduce their rates to build affordable housing.
b. Consultant #1: What about working with a habitat for humanity. 166
c. Attendee #1: She does not think that the volunteer work pool is sufficient to build affordable housing. Still thinks it’s good for single family and thinks the city should have a consistent stream of them.
i. ADU can impact homelessness and really add units and keep people living in place longer.
d. City Staff #1: they do have an ADU ordinance but does not go over the state one.
They adopted the state ordinance.
e. Attendee #1: San Jose has an innovative ADU program. The city would fund the construction as long as they agree to have a Section 8 tenant for 15 years. f. Consultant #1: Pasadena has a program where the city will waive a large portion of it if they agree to provide income documentation that shows they are restricted to affordable families.
5. In your opinion, what are some creative housing solutions that would help a city like Victorville develop more housing / affordable housing?
a. Attendee #1: She works in modular and thinks that they can help affordable housing because of the timeline. Her company is an innovative building company.
6. Are you interested in potentially partnering with a church or religious institution for a project (per recently passed SB 899)? What could the City do to assist? a. Attendee #1: They are involved with a group called YIGBY in San Diego. They are leveraging church property for affordable housing. Leaning on the religious land act. Just spoke to an NPO that is a former affordable developer that is exclusively working with religious organizations and doesn’t work with credits anymore.
b. Consultant #1: For city staff, it is a hard thing to become a broker for developer. It is nice to have organizations that are proactive and creative. It would be good to have some interest
7. Final Comments:
a. Attendee #1: Keep in mind that there are private developers who want to build affordable housing. They are talking about starting an organization like SCANPH (SCANPH is only for the credit and affordable folks)
i. It’s all about the subsidy overlay. If there is a way to lean on your county and get some vouchers, that would be great.
ii. Can they get a workforce vouchers, how can they get an allocation of VASH vouchers that are Victorville-specific.
iii. 80-100% is a section that really needs housing. Doing covenants for a certain amount of time. Make it attractive so private money can work. iv. Come see our factory in Carson – socially-distanced tours. Offer is on the table.
b. City Staff #1: He would personally like her to provide feedback on their land use element.

VICTORVILLE HOUSING ELEMENT UPDATE
HOUSING DEVELOPER STRATEGY SESSION #3 NOTES

Meeting Notes
Attendees:
1. Attendee #1
2. Attendee #2
3. Attendee #3
4. City Staff #1
5. Consultant #1
6. Consultant #2
Notes
1. Introductions
a. Attendee #2: Looking to create opportunities to create affordable housing. Gil in San Bernardino introduced him to Victorville. Knows the owner of the Green tree Inn.
b. Attendee #3: Strategic Development – was at META housing before. A lot of experience in LIHTC.
c. Attendee #1: Senior Project Manager at Strategic Development – Also worked with META Housing. Wants to participate in the Victorville affordable housing.
Has worked on a Victorville homeless shelter.
2. What are some challenges and opportunities you face as a developer while trying to develop housing / affordable housing in a community like Victorville? a. Challenge - Low Rents
i. Attendee #2: Although rents are an issue across the country, they are especially challenging in areas like the High Desert because they are significantly lower. Such low rates mean that they cannot generate enough profit to make it pencil.
ii. Attendee #3: A one-bedroom unit in the IE would rent at around $1,400 per month, while a one-bedroom unit in LA is $2100. That difference can generate a multi-million dollar gap.
1. He tried to work on a project in Hesperia (homeless veteran’s project). Numbers actually worked with vouchers. That is one of the best ways to make a project pencil.
b. Challenge - Impact Fees
i. Attendee #3: Impact fees are also a major hurdle – LA cities average $20,000 per unit, while some areas in the Inland Empire can have fees at the $30,000 level. This results in a lot more in additional expenses. c. Opportunity - Land
i. Attendee #3: One advantage the High desert has is a lot of available land. 169
3. Are there any constraints with obtaining loans (construction and/or permanent) for a project in Victorville?
a. TCAC Program is Competitive
i. Attendee #3: Overall, TCAC program has gotten a lot more competitive – many developers applying. First round of TCAC applications had a 28% win rate (for the $500 million state credit round). It’s not just Victorville, but particularly in places with lower rents, it is harder to be competitive and make things pencil. TCAC regulations have changed in the last six months (the less credits you ask for and the more units you build, the better your tiebreaker score is).
4. As funding for affordable housing is severely limited, what types of things can the City do to incentivize affordable housing projects (e.g., zoning, fee deferrals, streamlining, etc.)? a. Attendee #3: If Victorville helped expedite the affordable entitlement process, that would help. For instance, Los Angeles has an expedition process in TOT areas.
The quicker they can get through he entitlement process and approval, the easier it is for them to apply for funding.
i. Also, getting inspectors to give more attention to show up on time would help. Affordable requirements have hard deadlines and it helps to have them be prioritized. Missing deadlines can push them back a year or two. ii. City Council Support – Some projects have a special needs component, which can be sensitive to the community. A lot of state funding (like MHP, No Place Like Home, etc.) are tied to helping the most vulnerable. To be able to stand by the project, the community can be split on that, but having the council’s support is really important.
b. Attendee #3: What has worked in affordable housing projects in Victorville? c. City Staff #1: Most of them were probably built using Redevelopment funds that helped them pencil. Aside from that, we have not really been able to build more.
We are trying to change the tide with this new Housing Element. d. Attendee #3: Have there been any RFPs for any excess land in Victorville? e. City Staff #1: Our ED department is working on getting an RFP out for Housing Successor properties in Old Town. Hoping it goes out shortly. It is not a lot of property, but enough for a few projects.
f. Attendee #3: From a developer perspective, they would look at how large is the land – 3-4 acres is better than anything under 1. Being able to provide parking on grade would cut costs – podium and subterranean cost a lot. Location on areas with infrastructure helps a lot too. Anywhere in the middle of nowhere can be very expensive.
i. They had a project in Palmdale that cost an additional 2.2 million just to add utilities.
ii. Zoning (being allowed to have more density) would help too. 35-40 units per acre would help a lot.
g. Consultant #2: For locations near a supermarkets/commercial, what would the density needed be?
h. Attendee #3: Locations near commercial centers help them with TCAC applications since they are close to commercial centers (more points). 30- 50maximum would work. Important to not set minimums, as it can make it difficult 170
to meet the requirements if the acreage is low. Better to set maximum and let them go lower if they choose. Density bonuses would also be a good consideration.
i. Consultant #2: Old Town Area has a few vacant lots where the city has had to demolish some buildings. There are vacant properties that have already been cleared up. They also have the needed density.
j. Attendee #2: When he figured out that he couldn’t make it work on one of the best pieces of land in Victorville, he realized the low rents were a huge deterrent. k. Attendee #3: Does the city have “soft funds” for affordable housing? Specifically project-based vouchers.
l. City Staff #1: We have some PLHA funds, HOME funds, and not sure if they have project-based vouchers. The City doesn’t, but they’d have to check if the County has it. Usually the Housing Authority have the vouchers. m. Consultant #2: We looked at vouchers for another client. Cities that don’t have a lot of staff are challenged because it is a lot of work to administer it. n. Attendee #2: Organizations like the United Way – they have access to tenant- based vouchers. Master lease and HUD will underwrite if there are vouchers. If they designate a number of units for homelessness, then they can do a master lease with them.
o. Consultant #2: City applied for the PLHA grant. Money is starting to come in for pre-development and development. We are starting to see actual money for developments. Additionally, the City can have more control over where to modify zoning for these types of projects to help provide land where developers can get more points for their location.
p. Attendee #3: Being in a QCT (qualified census tract) or a DDA (places that are very expensive) gives points and being close to amenities, helps provide more points. Looked at the HUD website to check if there are any QCT (huduser.gov/portal/sadda/sadda_qct.html)
q. Attendee #1: They are looking at a few things as the opportunities come up.
Something Victorville can do to expedite the entitlements. i. If the City sticks to the timeline predictions they make, it would be really helpful. Additionally, making the city more development friendly. r. Consultant #2: What would be ideal turnaround for entitlements? s. Attendee #1: 4-6 months. But a key element is being able to stick to the predictions made.
i. What is the process to do a zone change?
t. City Staff #1: It would take an ordinance – take it to council – do an environmental review, etc. Environmental is typically something that takes a while. They try to do it as quickly as they can, but developers tend to throw the towel in when they see all the environmental processes because they have a lot of Joshua Trees (protected).
5. Have you considered a project in Victorville or the High Desert area within the last 3 years? Why or why not?
a. Green Tree Hotel
i. Attendee #2: Large plot of land that the seller has been wanting to develop. The hotel is a gateway to the city and has golf course views that would be great for affordable housing. Seller is willing to provide the land for affordable housing and even then, it’s hard to make it pencil because of the rents. They need something else to make the deal work (vouchers). 171
ii. City Staff #1: Green Tree Inn is along the 7th street corridor. Any luck with trying to make the project pencil?
iii. Attendee #2: it’s so disappointing. The program never really launched – first two years had a lot of requirements, then COVID hit.
1. They can come back to Scott and tell him what they would need the zoning to be for the Green tree to make it pencil. (Per Scott, it’s the right time to do this because we are updating the land use element).

VICTORVILLE HOUSING ELEMENT UPDATE
HOUSING DEVELOPER STRATEGY SESSION #4 NOTES

Meeting Notes
Attendees:
1. Attendee #1
2. Attendee #2
3. Attendee #3
4. City Staff #1
5. Consultant #1
6. Consultant #2
Notes
1. What are some challenges and opportunities you face as a developer while trying to develop housing / affordable housing in a community like Victorville? a. Attendee #3: Can’t get rents to cover costs of construction. Land residual result in negative amounts. Fees are high. Have asked Sophie Smith and staff to review fees. Couple of apartment developers are trying to develop; question is whether they will be able to get the rents to justify the costs, including CA requirements (CEQA, etc.). We battle over these issues. Some say there’s no choice. We don’t have an affordable issue here. We could use more housing.
About 57% of the High Desert is on welfare or some kind of subsidy. Building to that market is not where we should be building. We should encourage people to get a job or get an education / trade and get in the workforce. b. Attendee #1: I do see an affordable housing issue. What I can afford may not be what you can afford. We are still in the midst of a pandemic. We have people who were laid off, did not choose not to work. We are trying to keep people housed. We have opened up shared housing to keep people off the street. I went through the struggle of becoming homeless, not because of lack of work or education, but because of divorce / abusive husband. Moved and worked in Irvine for a time, because wages in High Desert don’t meet needs of large family.
Now in a pandemic, with businesses closing, we need to look at how to help people who aren’t choosing to be on public assistance.
c. Attendee #2: Construction costs are high right now. Way affordable housing works is affordable rents. Doesn’t generate classic rent-cost structure. Need additional subsidy / residual loans, either from City (or fee waivers) or working with County or State. Biggest hurdle is funding and how long it takes to get funding. Jamboree was fortunate to celebrate 31 years this year. Step that takes the longest is financing process. Most programs are 2-5 times oversubscribed.
We have to be persistent to go after funding multiple times. If it’s not publicly owned land, need private owner to give time to get through that process. Most owners are not willing to do that. Need time and capital for these deals, which sometimes have 5-7 layers.
174
d. Attendee #2: Would like to restart conversation about project in Victorville. Did a lot of land planning, working architects, etc. It’s been about a year since last speaking about a prior project. The property was City-owned / controlled. e. Attendee #1: Have you heard anything about Housing Trust Fund that Riverside put together?
f. City Staff #1: Hitta and I have talked about that. It could be something that we focus on as a policy objective in the Housing Element.
g. Consultant #1: Roger, without the land being provided for the project, the numbers didn’t work, is that correct?
h. Attendee #2: The project got stalled in the use of the mixed use space. Jamboree wanted community-serving purpose. City wanted retail (e.g., Starbucks). The City’s idea was to rejuvenate Old Town. It’s not quite there. Rather than have empty space, we wanted to include community-serving use, to activate the community that way, then convert to retail at a later point. i. Attendee #3: We have sold and leased more space in Old Town than anyone else in the time we’ve been there. Our company has made a decision that we won’t take on any time of commercial land use on properties north of the Fairgrounds now, because of safety. At any time of the day, downtown doesn’t feel safe. It’s going to take a very serious commitment from the City and the Sheriff to clean up the downtown area. The homeless issue and crime have taken over so bad. That’s sad, because we like to service the entire region. j. City Staff #1: Roger brought up a good point about how zoning can become an impediment to making development work. It’s about finding that middle ground to allow flexible community space. I thought we got there. But there was a factor in making it easier for someone to build a development. We don’t have many developers who specialize in mixed use. They build it for an affordable housing complex. It becomes a hurdle when there’s not demand for commercial in that area. The current state of Old Town is unfortunate. Harris & Associates is helping to form a CRIA, to get tax increment to supplement a development and pay for the commercial component.
k. Attendee #2: There wasn’t an issue about paying for it. It was about the use of the space.
l. Consultant #1: In addition to the HE update, the City is updating the LUE. Retail can be tricky because demand changes (re: e-commerce). Even market rate projects with first floor retail can struggle to keep tenants in the first floor. That’s been a relatively newer phenomenon. As retail preferences change, retail evolves so quickly. The LUE is also being updated. Perhaps there’s an opportunity to look at the zoning requirement in the Old Town area. Are there any constraints with obtaining loans (construction and/or permanent) for a project in Victorville?
2. Have you encountered any programs, procedures, or incentives in other cities that have significantly facilitated housing development?
175
a. Attendee #3: I don’t think we have an issue with affordable housing in the VV. A dollar goes farther here than anywhere else in So Cal. We don’t have an affordable housing problem. Angela Valles was voted on Council because she said there were too many affordable housing built. We need to get more people who are sitting at home to go to school and create a skill. You can’t grow an economic when you don’t have people working. I’ve talked to some homeless people. Some of them don’t want housing; they want to remain homeless. b. Consultant #1: Clarified that City has to plan for affordable housing, per State law (RHNA).
c. Attendee #3: I understand that. The first project I sold in Santa Barbara was an affordable housing project.
d. Attendee #2: Works well when department within the City are well coordinated and there’s a consistent mission, driving for development. Good coordination improves the timeline. E.g., including fire department. When a HE is thoughtful.
E.g., Pasadena 2016 [2014/] HE, won an award. They not only identified sites, but also categorized them for probability of development. For tax credit purposes, sites have to be near amenities. If low probability of development, have to identify more or other sites.
e. Attendee #1: I liked the example of the Jamboree project in Victorville that have services co-located with affordable housing. It’s critical that services are partnered with affordable housing. I’m very interested in what Riverside did with starting a Housing Trust, to make sure the entire community is a part of building affordable housing.
f. Attendee #2: Fee waiver or deferral would be helpful to reduce the capital stack needed for affordable housing.
g. City Staff #1: How much deferral?
h. Attendee #2: E.g., 15-year deferral, in the form of a Note.
3. In your opinion, what are some creative housing solutions that would help a city like Victorville develop more housing / affordable housing?
a. Attendee #2: ADUs have been successful for some cities. It’s a one-off, but a form of affordable housing that can be quickly built and is built by the private sector. We’re interested in doing modular, but haven’t seen it done locally. For us, the benefit of modular is time savings, not cost. We’re trying to find energy efficiencies as well. We’re still doing the old-fashioned builds. We’re not convinced that shipping containers have been more cost effective. We’ve seen them be more expensive.
b. Attendee #1: Tiny homes will help address homelessness. Largest concern is making sure they have kitchens and restrooms so they don’t have to wander to use the restroom. If 60% of people are on welfare, that has to be part of the answer.

c. Attendee #3: Not aware of success of Tiny Homes. Lizette Gallo (sp?) has been a proponent of them. If they are clustered well and landscaped appropriately, maybe they can work. Haven’t seen them work in more inland areas, but am interested and would like to see more information about them.
4. Are you interested in potentially partnering with a church or religious institution for a project (per recently passed SB 899)? What could the City do to assist? a. Attendee #2: Jamboree has done it in Orange County. Some congregations have shrunk and have land available. Jamboree did a ground lease on a church property to benefit the church and provide affordable housing. Many times, the matter is about getting the regional entity to get in line with the local church. b. Attendee #1: Am a pastor in the High Desert. Part of that goes along with the mission of the church – providing housing, addressing the needs of the homeless. It goes hand in hand, working with the churches to reduce the parking requirements to ensure there’s adequate property. I like that idea. c. Attendee #3: We get 3 calls a week where people want to create or expand a church. I don’t see this being viable in Victorville, where there’s already so much land available. The largest church in SB County is the High Desert Church, and they are impacted in their ability to grow. I’m not aware of churches in High Desert that aren’t growing / have excess land. I could see it work in Orange County (but not the High Desert).
5. Final Comments:
a. Attendee #3: Challenge from the builders – some of them can absorb the increased requirements of design, block walls, etc. that City is trying to apply.
Scott and his staff understand there are problems that have existed for a long time. But when builders say they don’t want to go there due to higher costs… Now there’s a push for housing across the State, but new home building is down in High Desert. Deferred fees are helpful. Won’t disagree with the State. It’s run very poorly. Unlike in other places in CA, in High Desert, we need quality jobs. I’d like to see more, higher end housing. We also need to satisfy the needs of all the players. Scott is very cognizant about the issues. Developers don’t want to go to Cities with divided leadership.
b. Attendee #1: Have been working closely with the City, about the last 3 years.
Have been up here since 1989. Want to commend the City for the work they are doing. They are doing an awesome job, assessing the community, identifying and addressing the needs. I appreciate being in the City more than ever. 177

Community Workshop #2 (March 15, 2021)
Zoom Chat
262
17:21:13 From Sandie : However, there were only 106 people... 17:21:33 From Sandie : that responded
17:21:38 From trobi : In the context of very affordable housing, does the city ha
ve any position on tiny homes perhaps on leased land?
17:22:46 From Rasiene's Galaxy Note20 5G : Yes, my question too. How is the city fe
eling or climate in the city in regards to tiny homes?
17:23:32 From ms Gomez : inclusion zoning is important 17:24:14 From M Vaitai : What are the restrictions with ADU’s in the city? 17:33:46 From M Vaitai : Are these maps available to view online? 17:35:30 From trobi : what did the numbers refer to on the purple areas? 17:39:14 From Larry : There is already a development i n progress at Pacoima
and BVR. Should be upon very very soon
17:41:45 From Larry : sorry for the typing. On my cell phone and using voice t
o text.
17:43:38 From Larry : It is a commercial develpment
17:43:45 From ED Alex Byron : It's a car wash
17:43:45 From Manuel Mancha : doesn't housing cause a drain on services to the cit
y?
17:44:12 From ms Gomez : We have observed several maps for opportunities for apa
rtments or single family or condos and what no. However although there are state mandates where does the city's local control exercise one of several areas for state compliance and who is the oversight board in this matter? 17:45:46 From ms Gomez : in other words, how does compliance allow for the city to
continue its own local control in the varying compliance laws in regards to housing elements and inclusionary zoning?
17:47:23 From Manuel Mancha : doesn't home ownership vs. rental property increas
e crime levels in any community?
17:48:53 From Larry : City already has a shortage in first responders and Code En
forcement officers. What is the city's plan to increase. Right now a code enforcement call can take two weeks to get an officer to the scene. 17:51:33 From Larry : What is the city's plan to renovate and improve "Old town" .
To build new housing around an OLD TOWN area, will not draw consumers to the current OLD TOWN
17:51:50 From ED Alex Byron : Actually Code enforcement is doing a great job!!!
17:
52:58 From M Vaitai : How does the federal opportunity zone come into play wi
th Old Town? Are there partnering lenders and developers in contract? 17:53:10 From ms Gomez : It has been know that policies are used in local governm
ent to stymie apartment development by cities requiring additional amenities that "scare" such developers. Has the state focused on those types of strategic moves?
17:55:27 From Larry : Did the previous ADU question get answered. And does this in
clude garage conversions? Per "Sacramento" there is a 3.5 million home shortage in California. Is Victorville looking to reduce developer costs? 17:55:39 From ms Gomez : its not the correct "term"
18:00:19 From Larry : Mello-roos should not be a solution, it hurts the buyer's
ability to sell the property "later on", as it effect's a purchasures ability to qualify.
18:00:48 From ms Gomez : How does the federal census count affect the housing
needs that we forsee in teh futures
263
18:01:09 From Sandy : Where can a tiny home community be built? 18:02:23 From ms Gomez : Do these housing elements and discussions really address
the homeless crisis?
18:02:33 From Jennifer Neri : Has the City been approached by any investors or deve
lopers at this time?
18:05:03 From ms Gomez : will this be the last workshop on the housing element
or how many can we expect to see and in what period of time? 18:05:12 From M Vaitai : Revitalization of Old Town could benefit with ADU/ Tiny ho
me communities. Addressing the needs of homeless and fix income residents. 18:05:25 From BRIAN HAHN : How are set-backs determined for ADU's? Can they be
changed from year to year? Are our current set-backs conforming to the state's guidelines?
18:08:54 From Gregorio P.erez : 7th st and so of nisqually 18:08:59 From Lupe Camacho : Can you confirm, I thought I heard you state that th
is is the 2nd Housing Element Workshop and there will be one more? 18:10:44 From Lupe Camacho : A draft only, not final? When Final Due? 18:11:19 From trobi : Has the City determined any areas to change existing zoning
ie. re-zone using this general plan update process?
18:12:41 From ms Gomez : what is "market rate" by definitions? 18:12:59 From ms Gomez : is it synonymous to affordability? 18:14:23 From Gregorio P.erez : Near mall Walmart
18:17:21 From Edgar Rodriguez : the Spanish Is very hard to hear. It should be loud
er
18:18:23 From Hitta Mosesman : I informed Irlanda that she was hard to hear and to
speak louder. Thank you for letting us know
18:19:46 From ms Gomez : does that mean and include equal percentages or unequal
as long as there is a variety of option types?
18:21:54 From ms Gomez : I would have to say other because it allows for customi
zation of our demographics and the population of the city of victorville 18:22:02 From Linda Titus : Will patio homes be looked at as an option? 18:25:26 From Larry : OTHER - lack of inventory
18:25:32 From ms Gomez : inequality redlining
18:26:10 From BRIAN HAHN : Mello Roos in some communities 18:26:20 From ms Gomez : and gentrification
18:26:24 From Edgar Rodriguez : we should have more jobs that can provide mortgag
e paying wages and not just service industry jobs
18:26:37 From Harriman (Vice Chair) : higher income demographic 18:26:50 From Linda Titus : City supported programs from condo to single homes
18:3
0:11 From ms Gomez : How can policies and resolutions within housing element
s that come to councils and governments demystify federal subsidies as a means to aid in the housing crisis?
18:32:04 From Edgar Rodriguez : Thank you for the Spanish transmission.
There a
re over 10 people at my work listening in Spanish.
18:34:08 From trobi : Is there a City policy that the commission would like to chan
ge to alleviate homelessness?
18:34:08 From Dima Galkin to Melissa Nelson(Direct Message) : Hi Melissa
,
My internet knocked me out. I'm back now. Can you relabel me as a co-host, please? 18:35:04 From Melissa Nelson to Dima Galkin(Direct Message) : of 264
course! just one second
18:35:08 From BRIAN HAHN : Affordable Housing should be a high priority in Victorv
ille! I live in a community that has driven out a number of families because the Mello Roos exceeds $3000 per year. This is simply not sustainable for most families!
18:36:24 From Larry : How do you solve the Substance addiction which can cause t
he homelessness, but also prevents people from getting goovernment housingg. 18:36:51 From ms Gomez : Ive observed that public service has been as high as 10%
versus administrative costs so how can policies or procedures alleviate and create equity in terms of services to the homeless vs those admin costs? 18:37:01 From Thomas (Commmissioner) : Are there any cities that are doing well wi
th the homeless issue?

and matching programs. How will the funds from the Master Plan on Aging be allocated to high need areas like Victorville?
18:39:37 From trobi : Enforcement of existing law has essentially been paused
in Victorville, homeless have in effect laid claim to vacant lots. Example of a policy that hasn't been too effective.
18:40:13 From BRIAN HAHN : Addressing the homeless crisis in Victorville should
be one of Victorville's top priorities.
18:40:44 From Jennifer Neri : Affordable housing is a must, many families are liv
ing paycheck to paycheck and a loss to that income are on the verge of being housing insecure.
18:41:28 From Manuel Mancha : Homeownership has been a proven statistic in lowerin
g crime in communities.
18:42:53 From Leslie Earl : Considering Victorville has a 23% poverty rate, why doe
sn't the city commit 23% of their funding toward housing that demographic?? 18:43:07 From Edgar Rodriguez : Thank you for that information. 18:43:25 From Edgar Rodriguez : That was in Boise Idaho 18:44:00 From Leslie Earl : Not the same. The issue I am raising is with the 10-

PUBLIC COMMENT RESPONSES
Government Code Section 65583(c )(9) requires that local governments “make a diligent effort to achieve public participation of all economic segments of the community in the development of the housing element.” Pursuant to this requirement, and in an effort to engage the City’s constituents in the planning process, the City of Victorville made the Draft Housing Element available to the public for review on July 6, 2021, two weeks prior to submittal to HCD for review.
In order to employ multiple methods for public outreach efforts, particularly to include lower - income and special needs households and neighborhoods with higher concentrations of lower - income households, the City reached out to local community organizations working with the full spectrum of special needs communities. As shown on Table A -1 in pages 91 and 188 of this Appendix A, 229 individuals attended Workshops #1 and #2. Stakeholders contacted included members of the public and representatives of schools, churches, affordable housing properties, affordable housing developers, surrounding cities, water agencies, veteran’s organizations, senior organizations, family assistance organizations, health organizations, among others.
Specifically, the City published the Draft Housing Element draft on July 6, 2021 - one week prior to the joint Planning Commission and City Council public hearing on the Draft Housing Element on July 13, 2021. A public hearing was held with the expressed purpose of collecting public input. The City waited two weeks to submit the Draft Housing Element to HCD on HCD on July 20, 2021 and has been open to receive public comment after the submittal.
It is important to note that all of the public comments received (outside of the public hearing referenced above) was submitted to City staff prior to July 13, 2021. No public comments have been received since the Draft Housing Element was submitted to HCD for review.

Hello Mr. Webb
,
I wanted to address the need to tie the Victorville Senior Housing needs into the Master Plan on Aging planning and funding. We do not want any missed opportunities to access the available support resources from a developing , planning , or funding standpoint.
Is there any one from the Victorville area on the Master Planning Task force? There are five goals of the MPA. Housing is numbe
r one because of the need and growth of the senior population. I will continue to share information on an as requested basis , if you like.
Great seeing you tonight.
Keep up the good work!
Kind regards,

Good morning Scott,
Thank you very much for hosting the workshops on the update Housing Plan Element and Land Use. We also appreciate the willingness to hear from Spanish speakers and to create other avenues to get feedback through the survey.
A few of our collaborative members have participated and we have encouraged our community networks to also attend and/or complete your survey.
In addition to this we would like to submit a list of 15 policies that we believe will help lead to an increase in affordable housing and overall equitable development.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,

Housing Element Update
2021- 2029
Needs to focus on diverse development & affordability
As part of the required update on the housing plan element, cities and towns should prioritize policies that lead to diverse housing stock and affordable housing. As well as overall equitable development that is accessible to needed amenities such as, green space, grocery stores, jobs and safe and efficient transportation. Below are fifteen policy recommendations that we ask to be considered as part of the 2021- 2029 housing plan update.
288
Policy Recommendations à Goal
1. Adopt a Housing is a human right
ordinance that calls for the
development of an internal process
that incentivizes building and
development throughout the city
and/or town and creates a community
led housing taskforce that works with
the local city and/or town on
strategies, solutions and tracks
measurable outcomes.
à
Incentivize developers to work with High
Desert cities by presenting a clear strategy of
our local development goals.
2. Allow for mixed use on all commercial
lots with a minimum requirement set
for commercial use.
à
Incentivize development of multifamily,
mixed use housing, improve access to job
opportunities and promote walkability.
3. Re-zone for the development of tiny
homes and adopt a policy to
streamline the development of tiny
homes process.
à
Incentivize development of market rate
affordable housing stock
4. Adopt a fee for developers that deviate
from the preferred square footage
zoning and underutilize lot size.
à
Incentivize the development of the adopted
preferred square footage zoning and
maximize lot sizes.
5. Create a local multi-family housing
fund from the developer fees
collected from those who deviate
from minimum lot size zoning.
à
Incentivize development of multi-family
housing by assisting with local capital to be
used as density bonuses.
6. Adopt a policy that gives property
maintenance flexibility to NGO’s that
purchase housing units for the use of
affordable housing. Policy to include a
five-year plan to get the property up to
code.
à
Incentivize the acquisition of housing by NGOs
to be used for affordable housing, expedite
occupancy times and prevent slums.
7. Exempt NGO agencies who rent
housing from a private party landlord
from having to obtain a renter permit
license.
à
Incentive the use of rental housing by NGOs for
transitional use housing.
289
8. Remove barriers that keep people
away from multi-family housing such as
Crime Free Multi Family Housing
Ordinances.
à
Incentivize access to affordable housing for all
residents, including those who have come out
of the criminal justice system.
9. Adopt an Affordable Family Housing
Overlay that provides by-right
incentives of certain development
standards in exchange for a dedication
of 20% units as affordable family
housing units at very low income.
à
Incentivize the development of affordable
housing units in diverse parts of the city and/or
town.
10. Adopt a Mixed Income Housing
Ordinance that creates mixed income
housing opportunities by requesting
that 15% of all new housing
construction projected will result in
affordable units.
à
Incentivize balanced development of housing
that includes both market rate and affordable
housing throughout the city and/or town.
11. Affordable Housing Bond.
Government bonds dedicated to
funding the capital requirements for
building affordable housing, including
new construction and rehabilitation of
existing stock.
à
Creates a local funding opportunity that will
allow us to work with private partners to build
more housing.
12. Adopt housing preservation programs
such as rent control that allows local
governments to regulate the amount
of rent landlords can charge to tenants.
à
Ensures that people who are on fixed income,
like seniors, veterans and people who are on
disability have access to affordable housing.
13. Streamline the permitting process and
adopt policies that have financial
incentives for developer such as fee
waivers.
à
Incentivizes the development of housing
throughout the city and/or town.
14. Adopt a Community Benefit Agreement
policy in where developers and city
and/or town government bring in
residents as part of the development
process up front.
à
Incentivizes development that is receptive to
resident needs, promotes support for projects
which can save time and money.
15. Adopt a marketing strategy to
promote local Opportunity Zones for
the development of affordable
housing.
à
Incentivize the development of
neighborhoods by promoting tax incentives.

2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-1
APPENDIX B: AFFIRMATIVELY FURTHERING
FAIR HOUSING
Assembly Bill (AB) 686, passed in 2018, requires cities and counties to administer programs and activities relating to housing and community development in a manner to further fair housing affirmatively and not to take any action that is materially inconsistent with this obligation. AB 686 defined “affirmatively further fair housing” to mean “taking meaningful actions, in addition to combating discrimination, that overcome patterns of segregation and foster inclusive communities free from barriers that restrict access to opportunity” for people of color, people with disabilities, and other protected classes.
AB 686 requires that all Housing Elements prepared on or after January 1, 2021, include the following:
• An assessment of fair housing within the jurisdiction that includes the following components: A summary of fair housing issues and an assessment of the jurisdiction’s fair housing enforcement and outreach capacity, an analysis of segregation patterns and disparities in access to opportunities, an assessment of contributing factors, and an identification of fair housing goals and actions.
• Inclusion of affirmatively furthering fair housing as part of achieving the goals and objectives of the Housing Element.
• Incorporation of affirmatively furthering fair housing in the Sites Inventory.
The City of Victorville (City or Victorville) has completed the following outreach and analysis to inform the Housing Element and all housing goals, policies, and programs to meet State law housing requirements. The City’s objective is to promote and affirmatively further fair housing opportunities throughout the community for all people regardless of age, race, color, religion, sex, gender, gender identity, gender expression, s exual orientation, marital status, national origin, ancestry, familial status, source of income, disability, and genetic information.
Outreach
As discussed in Appendix A, Public Engagement, of the Housing Element the City held two virtual public community workshops and five stakeholder meetings and conducted a public survey in addition to holding a joint Planning Commission and City Council meeting on July 13, 2021, to present the Draft Housing Element.
The public community workshops were noticed through the City’s website, social media accounts, mailers, and public email system. Due to restrictions resulting from the COVID -19
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-2
pandemic, t he workshops were held virtually via Zoom on weekday evenings to facilitate participation. Five stakeholder meetings were held to provide an opportunity for affordable housing developers to collaborate with the City and to discuss housing needs and opportunities.
The City also conducted a public survey that was available on the City’s website, with 104 responses received.
The outreach conducted by the City before and throughout the Housing Element update process engaged community members throughout the City. Because of the City’s large proportion of Spanish-speaking residents, t he City has made an intentional effort to reach non- English speaking households and to provide all materials in English and Spanish, along with Spanish interpretation during public meetings.
Assessment of Fair Housing Issues
California Government Code, Section 65583 (10)(A)(ii) , requires all counties in California to analyze areas of segregation, racially /ethnically concentrated areas of poverty (R/ECAPs), disparities in access to opportunity, and disproportionate housing needs, including displacement risk. To assist in this analysis of integration and segregation, the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) and the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (TCAC) convened the California Fair Housing Task Force to “provide research, evidence-based policy recommendations, and other strategic recommendations to HCD and other related state agencies/departments to further the fair housing goals (as defined by HCD).” The Task Force creates “Opportunity Area” maps to identify resource levels across the State “to accompany new policies aimed at increasing access to high opportunity areas for families with children in housing financed with 9% Low -Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTCs) .” The maps are created using composite scores of three different “ domains,” each consisting of a set of indicators. The maps include a measure or “filter” to identify areas with poverty and racial segregation. To identify these areas, census tracts were first filtered by poverty and then by a measure of racial segregation. The criteria for these filters are as follows:
• Poverty: Tracts include at least 30% of population under Federal poverty line. • Racial Segregation: Tracts with location quotient higher than 1.25 for African Americans, Hispanics, Asians, or all people of color in comparison to the San Bernardino County (County) high segregation and poverty census tracts are, therefore, areas of over - concentrated low‐income and minority households with limited access t o resources and pathways to success.

California Tax Credit Allocation Committee/California Department of Housing and Community Development Opportunity Area Map
The 2021 TCAC/HCD Opportunity Area Map uses composite index scores of three different domains (economic, environmental, and education) to categorize tracts as low, moderate, or high resource. Categorization is based on percentile rankings for census tracts within the Inland Empire region (Imperial, Riverside, and San Bernardino Counties), and higher composite scores mean higher resources. Within San Bernardino County , most of the high and highest resource areas are in the San Bernardino Valley or rural areas in the San Bernardino National Forest.
However, the Victor Valley region, where the City is located, ranges almost entirely between low and m oderate resource areas, with pockets of high segregation and poverty . In 2018 , the TCAC/HCD Opportunity Area Map showed the majority of the census tracts i n the City as low resource areas , with a few census tracts in the West City and Central City planning areas identified as High Segregation and Poverty areas. The 2021 TCAC/HCD Opportunity Area Map identifies 12 of the City’s census tracts as low resourc e, three as moderate resource, and four as high segregation and poverty . (Note: Two census tracts within the City have missing/insufficient data.) The most notable change from the 2018 designations is the upgraded status of the moderate resource census tracts. Table B-1 shows the scores by domain for each census tract in 2021.

The three moder ate resource census tracts generally correspond to the entire Baldy Mesa Planning Area, a large part of the West City Planning Area, and small portions in the City’s southeastern and northeastern areas. Figure B-1 illustrates the categorization of resource areas in and around the City.
TCAC and HCD identify between one and five indicators for each domain. The indicators are:
• Poverty
• Adult education
• Employment
• Job proximity
• Median home value
• Exposures and environmental effects, as measured for CalEnviroScreen 3.0 • Math proficiency
• Reading proficiency
• High School graduation rates
• Student poverty rate
Because the indicator scores are measured differently from each other (e.g., percent versus dollar amount), TCAC/HCD calculates a unit-less “z-score” for each indicator. The z-scores are averaged by domain, and the domain scores are averaged to create an index score. Higher index scores indicate higher levels of access to opportunity. As described in this appendix , the City analyzed several additional factors to assess patterns that may further fair housing issues and to identify actions to combat these barriers to accessing opportunities.
The City has conducted the following analysis of available data to assess local access to opportunities and indicators of fair housing issues in addition to the designations provided by the 2021 TCAC/HCD Opportunity Area Map. Data for disability was available at the City and regional (county subdivision) levels, while data for poverty rates, opportunity areas, housing cost burden, jobs proximity, and diversity were available at the block group level , and data for familial status was available at the zip code level. The City used the most localized levels of data available for this analysis and the 2014–2018 American Community Survey (ACS) 5-Year Estimates for consistency with the demographic data prepared in the Southern California Association of Governments pre-certified data packet and incorporated into the Housing Element.

Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing

Patterns of Integration and Segregation
Concentrations of Minority Population
The 2021 TCAC/HCD Opportunity Area Map combines both poverty and patterns of minority concentrations. Census tracts that have both a poverty rate of over 30% and are designated as racially segregated are filtered into the “High Segregat ion and Poverty” category . Using the definition from the Apple Valley/Victorville Consortium Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI) prepared in 2015, the Housing Element defines a “concentration” as “a census tract block group with a proportion of a particular race/ethnic group greater than that of the countywide average for that group.”
Figures B-2 through B-5 illustrate the concentrations of minorities in general and African American, Hispanic, and Asian populations per the 2014– 2018 ACS 5 -Year Estimates . As shown, a total of 13 census block groups in the City exceed the County minority concentration average of 39%, mostly in the central, northern, and northeastern areas of the City. Figures B-2 through B-5 were compared to figures in the AI to understand demographic changes in the City from 2010 to 2018. The AI figures illustrated that in 2010, the City had a minority concentration in the following planning areas: Baldy Mesa, West Bear Valley, West City, SCLA, Central City, and North Mojave. By 2018, the City had fewer areas with a minority concentration.
As of 2018, a majority of the block groups in the City have an African American and/or Hispanic concentration. More specifically, 32 of the 43 census block groups in the City (i.e., most of the City area) exceed the County African American concentration average of 8%. In 2010, 36 of 43 census block groups had an African American concentration. Eighteen census block groups in the City exceed the County Hispanic concentration average of 53% (covering most residential areas of the City). In 2010, the City had 17 census block groups with a Hispanic concentration.
The small change in the number of block groups with a Hispanic concentration masks the changes in the location of the City’s Hispanic concentrations. Seven block groups with a Hispanic concentration in 2010 (primarily in the Baldy Mesa, West Bear Valley, and West City planning areas) no longer had a concentration in 2018. Meanwhile five block groups without a Hispanic concentration in 2010 developed one by 2018, mostly in the Central City and West City planning areas near Bear Valley Road.
A total of seven census block groups in the City exceed the County Asian concentration average of 7%—three census block groups are near Highway 18 in the West City and West Bear Valley Planning Areas, and four census block groups are elsewhere in the City. In 2010, the City’s only Asian concentration was in the SCLA planning area. The number of City block groups with Asian concentration has increased throughout the city since 2010.

Areas with Limited English Proficiency
According to the 2014– 2018 ACS 5- Year Estimates, approximately 18% of City residents are foreign born, compared to 21% of County residents. This data is important so the City can ensure residents are treated fairly in housing regardless of national origin. The foreign-born portion of the population may be more susceptible to discrimination due to limited English proficiency.
The U.S. Census Bureau defines a “linguistically isolated household” as a household in which all members age 14 years and older speak a non-English language and also speak English less than “very well.” The ACS provides information on households with populations 5 years and older who speak English “less than very well.” In the City, the linguistically isolated population is estimated at 13% of the population, according to the 2014–2018 ACS 5-Year Estimates. The language most commonly spoken by residents who speak English “less than very well” is Spanish.
Language barriers may not only prevent residents from accessing serv ices, information, and housing but may also affect educational attainment and em ployment. On August 11, 2000, President Clinton signed Executive Order 13166 (Improving Access to Services by Persons with Limited English Proficiency ). The Executive Order requires Federal agencies to assess and address the needs of otherwise eligible people seeking access to federally conducted programs and activities and who, due to limited English proficiency, cannot fully and equally participate in or benefit from those programs and activities. This requirement also applies to Federal fund grantees and sub recipients. Therefore, the City is required to comply with this regulation.
Concentration of Poverty
Figure B-6 identifies concentrations of poverty in Victorville by census block group per the 2014– 2018 ACS 5-Year Estimates. A concentrated area of poverty is defined by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) as a census tract where the percentage of individuals living in households with incomes below the poverty rate is more than the lesser of 40% or three times the average poverty rate for the metropolitan area. The City is located in the Riverside- San Bernardino-Ontario metropolitan area, where the average poverty rate (according to 2014– 2018 ACS 5-Year Estimates) is approximately 16%.
As shown on Figure B-6, concentrations of poverty are most prominent along I-15, with six block groups along the corridor having a concentration of poverty , three of which are identified as minority concentration block groups ( Figure B-2). The poverty rate is highest in Census Tract 98, Block Group 2, where 72.5% of the households have an income below the poverty level. Six of the City’s 43 census tracts (14%) have a concentration of poverty, compared to 82 of the County’s 1,092 census tracts (8%). The AI identified the City’s low- and moderate-income areas in 2010. The majority of these areas are located along the I-15 Freeway and in the Baldy Mesa and Golden Triangle planning areas. The census block groups in Baldy Mesa and Golden Triangle identified in the AI as low- and moderate-income areas now have a lower percentage
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-7
of households living below poverty, indicating that incomes in those block groups have increased since 2010.
The Sites Inventory (Appendix C of the Housing Element) identifies 9% of all units (at all income levels) and 23% of lower -income units on sites in areas with a concentration of poverty due to the fact that the City’s primary areas that currently al low higher densities are in the areas with concentrations of poverty.
Racially/Ethnically Concentrated Areas of Poverty
In an effort to identify R/ECAPs, HUD has identified census tracts with the majority of non-White population (greater than 50%) and a poverty rate that exceeds 40% or three times the average census tract poverty rate for the metro/micro area, whichever threshold is lower. In Victorville, these three R/ECAP census tracts are north of Mojave Drive along I -15 and along the City’s northern boundaries and around the Southern California Logistics Airport (SCLA), as shown on Figure B-7. It should be noted that the areas along the City’s northern boundaries are sparsely populated and are likely designated as R/ECAP s based on people residing outside of the City (as census tracts can cross city boundaries). In 2010, the City only had one census tract with an R/ECAP designation, which crossed the boundary between the City and Adelanto. The City’s R/ECAP areas have increased since 2010.
Diversity Index
The Diversity Index from ESRI represents the likelihood that two people, chosen at random from the same area, belong to different race or ethnic groups. Ethnic diversity, as well as racial diversity, is included in the Housing Element’s definition of the Diversity Index. ESRI’s diversity calculations accommodate up to seven race groups: six single- race groups (White, African American , American Indian, Asian, Pacific Islander, Some Other Race) and one multiple-race group (two or more races). Each race group is divided into two ethnic origins, Hispanic and Non-Hispanic. If an area is ethnically diverse, then racial diversity is compounded. The Diversity Index ranges from zero (no diversity) to 100 (complete diversity). If an area’s entire population belongs to one race group and one ethnic group, then an area has zero diversity. An area’s Diversity Index increases to 100 when the population is evenly divided into two or more race/ethnic groups.
The relative diversity of different areas of the City is illustrated through the 2019 Diversity Index (Table B-2 and Figure B -8). The City’s three zip codes each have a Diversity Index of 87 or higher, indicating that the City has high levels of diversity. Within the High Desert, the Diversity Index is highest in the City’s northern census tracts and in Adelanto. The rest of the City has a higher index than Hesperia, Apple Valley, and nearby unincorporated communities.

Racially Concentrated Areas of Affluence
While R/ECAPs have long been the focus of fair housing policies, racially concentrated areas of affluence (RCAAs) must also be analyzed to ensure housing is integrated, a key to fair housing choice. According to “Racially Concentrated Areas of Affluence: A Preliminary Investigation” authored by Edward G. Goetz, Anthony Damiano, and Rashad A. Williams of the Center for Urban and Regional Affairs, University of Minnesota (a policy paper published by HUD), RCAA is defined as an affluent, White community. The policy paper goes on to state that “Whites are the most racially segregated group in the United States and in the same way neighborhood disadvantage is associated with concentrated poverty and high concentrations of people of color, conversely, distinct advantages are associated with residence in affluent, White communities.” RCAAs have not been studied extensively or defined precisely by HCD or HUD. The Housing Element uses a definition recommended by Veronica Tam & Ass ociates (part of the consulting team that assisted the City with the Housing Element), based on their extensive coordination with HCD and preparation of multiple Housing Elements in the San Diego Association of Governments region that concluded in June 2021 . That definition uses the percent of White population (i.e., 40%) and median household income (top quartile) as proxies to identify potential areas of racial concentration and affluence.
According to the 2014–2018 ACS 5-Year Estimates, White households in the City have a median income of approximately $3,200, or 6%, more than all households. In the County, White households have a median income of approximately $1,700, or 3%, more than all households. As shown on Figure B-9, census tracts with a White population over 40% and household income in the top median-income quartile of all City census tracts (greater than $67,100), are mostly located in the Baldy Mesa, West Bear Valley, and West City Planning Areas. Table B-3 presents data from the 2014–2018 ACS 5- Year Estimates. As indicated in Table B -3, White residents make up approximately 64% of City residents, compared to approximately 61% of County residents, according to the 2014 –2018 ACS 5- Year Estimates. Within the High Desert, RCAAs are most common in the City’s western census block groups and in parts of Apple Valley and Hesperia.

Adults Living Alone or With Spouse
According to the 2014–2018 ACS 5-Year Estimates, the percentage of adults in the City living with their spouse is approximately 40%, compared to approximately 43% of adults in the County.
Local block groups with the highest shares of adults living with their spouse are located in the City’s northeastern, southeastern, and southern areas, as seen o n Figure B-10. Approximately 11% of married -couple households in the City and approximately 8% of married- couple households in the County live below the poverty line. Within the High Desert, the concentration of adults living with a spouse is highest in Hesperia and Apple Valley. Although the City has lower concentrations, some southern and eastern block groups in the City contain concentrations that are high in comparison to the rest of the City.
Approximately 7% of City heads of household and 8% of County heads of household live alone.
As shown on Figure B-11, the largest share of adults living alone in the City is in the East Bear Valley Planning Area. Census Tract 91.17, Block Group 2, has a higher share of adults living alone, 23.1%, but most of that block group’s population lives outside of the City. This block group and an Apple Valley block group have the highest shares of adults living alone throughout the High Desert.
Children in Married-Couple Households
As stated in the AI, f amilies with children may experience housing discrimination as some landlords either may fear that children will cause property damage and/or may have cult ural biases against children of the opposite sex sharing a bedroom. Differential treatments, such as limiting the number of children in a complex or confining children to a specific location, are also fair housing concerns. According to the 2014– 2018 ACS 5- Year Estimates, more than half of children under 18 live in married-couple households throughout the City, as shown on Figure B-
12. This rate is highest within the City i n the 92394 zip code, where 58% of children under 18 live in married-couple households compared to 67% in the County as a whole. A total of 20% of families in the City live below the poverty line. Within the High Desert, the concentration of children in married-couple families is highest in Apple Valley, followed by the northern parts of the City.
Children in Single Female-Headed Households
Single-parent households require special consideration and assistance because of their greater needs for daycare, healthcare, and other facilities. Female- headed households with children tend to have lower incomes, thus limiting housing availability for this group. Fair housing law protects single parent households. According to the 2014– 2018 ACS 5 -Year Estimates, 34% and 32% of children under 18 live in f emale-headed households in the 92394 and 92395 zi p codes, respectively, as shown on Figure B -13. Within the High Desert, the concentration of

children in single female-headed households is highest in the City of Adelanto, followed by the northern and eastern parts of the City, as well as northern Hesperia.
Access to Opportunity
U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Environmental Health Hazard Index
The Environmental Health Hazard Index is a measure of potential exposure to harmful toxins at a neighborhood level. HUD calculates this index as a percentile of national census tracts, ranging from zero to 100. The higher the index value, the less exposure to toxins harmful to human health and the better the environmental quality of a census block group.
As of 2018, the majority of the rated areas in the City have moderate to high ratings on HUD’s Environmental Health Hazard Index, ranging from 43 to 84, indicating that exposure to environmental hazards is fairly limited. Old Town has a higher exposure to environmental hazards with a rating of 43. It should be noted that a large portion of the City is not rated; it is not clear from the Environmental Health Hazard Index webpage why this is the case.
California Communities Environmental Health Screening Tool The California Office of Environmental Healt h Hazard Assessment developed a screening methodology tool called the California Communities Environmental Health Screening Tool (CalEnviroScreen) to help identify California communities disproportionately burdened by multiple sources of pollution. Census tracts with high scores are more burdened by pollution from multiple sources and are most vulnerable to impacts , given the socio-economic characteristics and underlying health data. The Draft CalEnviroScreen 4.0 tool provides scores for all census tracts in Victorville. These scores range from 28 to 88, indicating a wide range of health burdens.
Access to Public Transit
As stated in the AI, equal provision of transit services is indirectly a fair housing issue if public transit does not adequately serve tra nsit-dependent populations, thereby limiting their housing choice. One way to measure this is to compare the relationship between existing transit routes, employment centers, and areas where residents are using transit regularly.
The City is served by Vict or Valley Transit Authority, with bus lines along I -15 and the C ity’s primary arterials and connections to other cities in the Victor Valley, cities in the San Bernardino Valley, and the City of Barstow. The AI reports that public transit in the Victor Val ley region is inadequate to meet the needs of residents. Survey participants noted that service was infrequent and schedules were difficult to decipher. As a result, it often takes an entire day to travel from one side of the Victor Valley to the other. However, Victor Valley Transit offers several flexible transit programs designed to complement its bus route network.
2021–2029 Housing Element

B-11
AllTransit is a data repository managed by the Center for Neighborhood Technology, an award- winning innovations laboratory for urban sustainability. AllTransit explores metrics that reveal the social and economic impact of transit, specifically looking at connectivity, access to jobs, and frequency of service. The City ’s AllTransit performance score is 3.8, while San Bernardino County has a sc ore of 4.4, illustrating a low combination of trips per week and number of jobs accessible, which enable only a few people to take transit to work in the County and even fewer in the City. Only 0.36% of workers in the City use public transportation (excluding taxicab) to get to work, which is less than the County’s rate of 1.5% of workers. Figure B -14 illustrates what areas of the City are within a half -mile of a transit ( primarily bus) stop. The locations of transit stops is based on data from Transitland, a community-edited data service aggregating transit networks across metropolitan and rural areas around the world.
Proximity to Jobs
As shown on Figure B-15, as measured by HUD’s Jobs Proximity Index, the areas in the City with the best access to job centers are those along the I-15 corridor, northeastern portion of the City, and near the Southern California Logistics Airport in the SCLA planning area. According to the 2014-2018 ACS 5 Year Estimates, the average commute travel times to work for City and County residents were 35 and 31 minutes, respectively. Nearly all of the City’s major employers are also directly on or adjacent to public transit routes. The areas with the most limited access to jobs (the Baldy Mesa Planning Area, and parts of the West Bear Valley and West City Planning Areas, as shown on the map) actually have a higher resource designation according to the 2021 TCAC/HCD Opportunity Area Map, suggesting that the lack of jobs in this area does not present a barrier to residents. Chapter 2, Community Profile, of the Housing Element presents additional information on employment by industry and occupation. Within the High Desert, job proximity is most prominent in the Cities of Adelanto and Apple Valley, followed by the eastern portion of the City.
Education
The City is served by the Victor Elementary School District, the Victor Valley Union High School District, the Adelanto Elementary School District, the Hesperia Unified School District , and the Snowline Joint Unified School District, as well as Victor Valley Community College.
The Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) was passed in 1965. It is often regarded as the most far-reaching Federal legislation affecting education ever passed by Congress. The act is an extensive statute that funds primary and secondary education while emphasizing equal access to education and establishing high standards and accountability. A major component of the ESEA is a series of programs typically referred to as “Title I.” Title I programs distribute funding to schools and school districts with a high percentage of students from low -income families. To qualify as a Title I school, a school typically must have around 40% or more of its students coming from families who are low income. The programs also give priority to schools
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-12
that are in obvious need of funds, low -achieving schools, and schools that demonstrate a commitment to improving their education standards and test scores.
Under Title I, the Community Eligibility Provision allows the nation’s highest poverty schools and districts to serve breakfast and lunch at no cost to all enrolled students without collecting household applications. The Victor Elementary School District, the Adelanto Elementary School District, the Hesperia Unified School District, and the Snowline Joint Unified School District have implemented the Community Eligibility Provision districtwide or at specific schools.
Figure B-16 shows what areas of the City are within 1 mile of a school, based on the California School Campus Database. School access is consistent throughout the City , with a significant majority of the City’s area and 77% of the projected units in the Sites Inventory located within 1 mile of a school. All projected units are within 1.5 miles from a school, except for the units on Site 28, a proposed and entitled two- unit development located on the City’s outskirts, approximately 2.6 miles from a school.
The schools in Victorville appear to vary in ratings and rankings . School-Ratings.com provides ratings for schools where higher percentiles indicate higher-quality schools. F our of the City’s schools are between the 76th and 87th percentiles, 11 schools are rated between the 24th and 66th percentiles, and 17 schools are rated between zero and the 18th percentiles (1 school is unranked).
Population with a Disability
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) defines a disability as a “physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities.” Fair housing choice for people with disabilities can be compromised based on the nature of their disability. People with physical disabilities may face discrimination in the housing market because of the use of wheelchairs, need for home modifications to improve accessibility, or other forms of assistance.
Landlords/owners may fear that a unit may sustain wheelchair damage or may refuse to exempt disabled tenants with service/guide animals from a no-pet policy. A major barrier to housing for people with mental disabilities is opposition based on the stigma of mental disability. Landlords may refuse to rent to tenants with a history of mental illness. Neighbors may object when a house becomes a group home for people with mental disabilities.
According to 2014– 2018 ACS 5- Year Estimates , in the County, 227,837 res idents, or approximately 11% of all County residents, were identified as having a disability. The percentage of residents with disabilities in the Victorville-Hesperia County Subdivision is 13%. Figure B -17 takes a regional view, illustrating the share of residents with a disability in the Victorville-Hesperia County Subdivision and adjacent subdivisions. The Inland Regional Center, which is the regional center contracted by the California Department of Developmental Services , provides programs and services that further aid in meeting the needs of those with physical, mental, and developmental disabilities for County residents.
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-13
An estimated 13,135 City residents, approximately 11% of all City residents, were identified as having a disability. According to the AI, special housing needs for people with disabilities fall into two general categories:
• Physical design to address mobility impairments
• In-home social, educational, and medical support to address developmental and mental impairments
According to the 2014–2018 ACS 5-Year Estimates, 5,459 people, or approximately 42% of City residents with a disability, have a developmental disability. As shown on Figure B-18, the census block groups with the highest concentration of people with disabilities (i.e., more than 24%) are located in the Central City Planning Area. These census block groups feature the highest concentration of residents living with a disability in the High Desert. This concentration is in part due to the presence of three assisted living facilities within the area: Green Tree Residence, Sierra Vista Independent & Assisted Living, and Knolls West Residential Care. City staff compared data on disability in the 2014– 2018 ACS 5- Year Estimates to the same data in the 2008-2012 ACS 5-Year Estimates. (2010 data was not available.) Several census block groups in the City experienced an increase in the percentage of residents living with a disability from 2012, as did some block groups in each neighboring jurisdiction. Residents in assisted living facilities are cared for by the facility staff. For residents living independently, t he City provides grants and loans to low- and moderate- income individuals with disabilities for accessibility modifications to single-family homes and assistance to renters with disabilities.
Disproportionate Housing Need and Displacement
Risk
“Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing: Guidance for All Public Entities and for Housing Elements,” published by HCD in April, 2021, defines “disproportionate housing needs ” as “a condition in which there are significant disparities in the proportion of members of a protected class experiencing a category of housing needs when compared to the proportion of a member of any other relevant groups or the total population experiencing the category of housing need in the applicable geographic area.” The analysis is completed by assessing cost burden, severe cost burden, overcrowding, and substandard housing. Many housing problems, such as housing overpayment or overcrowded housing, are directly related to the cost of housing in a community.
If housing costs are high relative to household income, a correspondingly high prevalence of housing problems occurs. This section evaluates the disproportionate housing need and displacement risk.
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-14
Overpayment
According to HUD, any housing condition where a household spends more than 30% of income on housing is considered overpayment. A cost burden of 30% to 50% of income is considered moderate overpayment; payment in excess of 50% of income is considered severe overpayment. Cost burden is an important housing issue because paying too much for housing leaves less money available for basic necessities and emergency expenditures.
Cost Burden among Renters
According to the 2014-2018 ACS 5-Year Estimates, 55% of renter households in the County have a rent burden greater than 30% of their income. In 26 of the City’s 43 block groups, that share of renter households is even greater. As shown on Figure B-19, the highest concentrations of renters with a cost burden are in the West City Planning Area, along I-15 near Victorville’s northeastern City boundary, and in the East Bear Valley Planning Area. These areas include four block groups in which more than 80% of renters have a rent burden. There are census block groups scattered throughout the High Desert with similarly high levels of renters experiencing a cost burden, including in each neighboring jurisdiction. The highest level of rent-burdened households is in an unincorporated area southwest of the City that includes the Oak Hills community. 2006-2010 ACS 5-Year Estimates were used to compare the change in rent burden over time. More block groups in the City have a high share of renters with a rent burden than in 2010.
The prevalence and geographic spread of high shares of r ent-burdened households highlights the importance of developing more affordable housing throughout the C ity to provide more housing opportunities for residents in lower -income households . Affordable housing development will reduce the risk of lower-income residents being displaced due to an inability to afford their home. The City seeks to address this need with many of its proposed programs, most notably Proposed Programs PP -A.1, PP-A.3, PP-A.4, PP-B.1, PP-C.3, PP-F.1, PP-F.2, PP-F.3, PP-F.4, PP-F.5, PP-H.2, PP-H.3, and PP-I.8. More multifamily development in general will provide more housing choice for tenants using housing choice vouchers . The City will continue to refer residents interested in housing choice vouchers to San Bernardino County so renters can have access to affordable housing (EP E.1: Housing Choice Vouchers).
Chapter 2 of the Housing Element uses the Southern California Association of Governments pre-certified data that includes information from HUD on the number of households in the City who pay 30% or more of their gross income on housing costs. More specifically, 60% of the City’s 15,024 renter households spend 30% or more of gross income on housing costs .
Additionally, 32% of renter households experience a severe housing cost burden (i.e., more than 50% of gross income spent on rent) as illustrated o n Figure 2-20 in Chapter 2 of the Housing Element. According to the 2014-2018 ACS 5-Year Estimates, renter households are more likely than owner-occupied households to experience housing cost burden.
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-15
Cost Burden among Owners
According to the 2014-2018 ACS 5-Year Estimates, approximately 55% of housing units in the City are owner occupied. Housing cost burden is less severe for homeowners in the City than in the County. Countywide, 38% of owner-occupied households with a mortgage have a cost burden greater than 30% of their gross income. There are only five block groups within the City in which a higher share of owner-occupied households experience a cost burden. These block groups are spread through the Baldy Mesa, Central City, Golden Triangle, and West Bear Valley Planning Areas, as shown on Figure B-20. Similar or higher shares of owners experience a cost burden in many census block groups within the City’s neighboring jurisdictions. Citywide, only 37% of owner- occupied households have a cost burden, indicative of the City’s supply of relatively affordable ownership housing options. In many areas, cost burden among owner households is less common than it was in 2010. Despite the relative affordability of homeownership opportunities in the City, Proposed Programs PP-C.2, PP-C.3, PP-K.1, PP-L.1, PP-L.2, and PP -L.3 will support further expansion of the availability and affordability of the City’s homeownership opportunities.
Overcrowding
Some households may not be able to accommodate high cost burdens for housing but may instead accept smaller housing or reside with other individuals or families in the same home.
Potential fair housing issues emerge if non- traditional households are discouraged or denied housing due to a perception of overcrowding.
According to the AI, household overcrowding is reflective of various living situations:
• (1) a family lives in a home that is too small,
• (2) a family chooses to house extended family members, or • (3) unrelated individuals or families are doubling up to afford housing.
Not only is overcrowding a potential fair housing concern, but it can also strain physical facilities and the delivery of public services, reduce the quality of the physical environment, contribute to a shortage of parking, and accelerate the deterioration of homes.
As described in Chapter 2 of the Housing Element, overcrowding is not a significant problem in the City relative to the Southern California region, with 10% of the total housing units in the City living in overcrowded situations. Throughout the Southern California Associations of Governments area, 10% of households are overcrowded. More specifically in the City, the 2014- 2018 ACS 5-Year Estimates indicate that 1,444 homeowner and 2,009 renter households had more than 1.0 occupants per room. Of these households, 253 homeowner households and 535 renter households (a combined 2% of all City households , compared to 4% in the Southern
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-16
California Associations of Governments area) had more than 1.5 occupants per room, which meets the ACS definition of “severe overcrowding” (Figure 2-26 in Chapter 2).
Figure B-21 shows that overcrowding and/or severe overcrowding are more common relative to the County in the West City, Central City, West Be ar Valley, SCLA, and Old Town planning areas, as well as in portions of Hesperia and Adelanto adjacent to the City. Even in these areas, however, overcrowding and severe overcrowding are generally less prevalent than in the Southern California region as a whole. Because overcrowding is not a relatively significant problem locally, the City is not pursuing any programs specifically aimed at reducing overcrowding. City staff expects that development of the sites in the site inventory will generally constrain or reduce overcrowding.
Housing Conditions
As discussed in Chapter 2, according to City records, the City opened 799 code enforcement cases between July 1, 2019, and December 31, 2020, related to substandard or unsafe housing conditions. Substandard housing issues can include structural hazards, poor construction, faulty wiring or plumbing, fire hazards, and inadequate sanitation or facilities for living. The 2014–2018 ACS 5-Year Estimates indicate the following on substandard housing issues in the City:
• 500 units lack telephone service,
• 124 units have inadequate plumbing, and
• 292 units lack a complete kitchen.
Given the relatively young age of the housing stock, the number of substandard housing units is limited. The City rigorously pursues code enforcement and housing rehabilitation programs to improve and maintain the housing stock.
The City will assist homeowners to identify and apply for rehabilitation funding, to expand code enforcement efforts if necessary, and to provide safe housing conditions educ ation (PP-D.4, Assist Residents with Extremely Low, Very Low, and Low Incomes; PP- D.5, Advertise Rehabilitation Programs ; PP-O.1, Enforce Existing Building and Safety Code; PP -O.2, Safe Housing Conditions Education).
Displacement Risk
The Urban Displacemen t Project (UDP) is a research and action initiative of U niversity of California, Berkeley that conducts community-centered, data-driven, applied research toward more equitable and inclusive futures for cities. Their research aims to understand and describe the nature of gentrification, displacement, and exclusion and to generate knowledge on how policy interventions and investment can respond and support development that is more equitable.
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-17
The UDP defines “residential displacement” as “the process by which a household is forced to move from its residence – or is prevented from moving into a neighborhood that was previously accessible to them because of conditions beyond their control.” As part of this research project, the UDP has an interactive map that display changes in neighborhood characteristics that may indicate displacement.
The UDP identifie s sensitive communities as those that have neighborhoods with a high proportion of residents vulnerable to displacement in the case of rising housing costs and market-based displacement pressures present in and/or near the community. Census tracts in the East Bear Valley, Central City, and parts of West Bear Valley Planning Areas are labeled as vulnerable to displacement by the UDP.
Enforcement and Outreach Capacity
The City reviews its zoning laws and policies on an ongoing basis to ensure compliance with fair housing requirements. Regular reviews of policies and practices ensure that, as the City grows and changes, all people have access to sound and affordable ho using. Housing Element Goal 8, Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing, and corresponding policies and programs have been included in Chapter 7, Housing Plan, of the Housing Element to promote and affirmatively further fair housing opportunities throughout the community for all people regardless of age, race, color, religion, sex, gender, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, marital status, national origin, ancestry, familial status, source of income, disability, and genetic information.
The City will continue to promote fair housing through its laws, policies, and programs and to make fair housing information available to tenants, homebuyers, property owners, and landlords.
Fair housing issues that may arise include but are not limited to the following:
• Housing design that make a dwelling unit inaccessible to an individual with a disability, • Discrimination against race, national origin, familial status, disability, religion, or sex when renting or selling a housing unit, and
• Addressing housing needs disproportionately across the City.
Inland Fair Housing and Mediation Board
The Inland Fair Housing and Mediation Board (IFHMB) is a California-based fair housing agency that serves the City. The IFHMB’s office is in Ontario, and its staff can be reached via email or via a phone number set up for residents to use if they experience housing discrimination. The IFHMB provides the following fair housing related services:
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-18
• Owner/tenant mediation.
• The Fair Housing Department provides information, investigation, education, conciliation, and/or referral of housing discrimination complaints.
• Pre-litigation mediation services.
• The agency’s Mobile Home mediators offer specialized problem solving based on Mobile Home Residency Law that reflects the dual ownership and unique life style of the Mobile Home community. In -park workshops are also available for education on rights and responsibilities and understanding of the Mobile Home Residency Law. • The Senior Services Department actively mediates conflicts between seniors and Social Security, Medi-Cal, utility companies, collection agencies, neighbors, and other parties in dispute. A Care Referral Service, such as personal care, housekeeping, transportation, shopping, and home maintenance, is available. The a gency also provides Homeowner/Renter Assistance. A list of senior housing and board and care homes is maintained and available. The agency also distributes a monthly West End Newsletter for seniors, which provides information, referrals, and monthly trips and tours for those who enjoy traveling.
• Mortgage default counseling.
• First-time homebuyer education.
• Pre-purchase counseling.
• Reverse equity mortgage counseling.
The Outreach D epartment actively engages community meetings, high schools, colleges, English as a Second Language (ESL) participants, r ealtors, and all other parties interested in learning how to avoid housing discrimination and the corresponding rights and responsibilities.
During the 5 th Cycle Housing Element cycle period (2013–2021), the IFHMB receive d 360 complaints and provided direct client services to the City’s residents, landlords, property owners, real estate professionals , and property seekers. Approximately 64% were resolved by the IFHMB by phone or correspondence without referral to another agency. In most cases, residents were informed of the law, the civil code, and available remedies for their particular question or issue, with 128, or 36%, conciliated by the IFHMB.

Department of Fair Employment and Housing
The mission of the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH) is to protect Californians from employment, housing and public accommodation discrimination, and hate violence. To achieve this mission, the DFEH keeps track of and investigates complaints of housing discrimi nation and complaints in the areas of employment, housing, public accommodations, and hate violence.
During the prior 5th Cycle Housing Element period, a total of two fair housing complaints in the City have been filed with the DFEH. One of these complaint s involved sexual orientation, and the other was classified as “arbitrary”.
Housing and Urban Development
HUD maintains a record of all housing discrimination complaints for the City. According to the HUD website, any person who feels their housing rights have been violated may submit a complaint to HUD via phone, mail, email, and with FHEO online in English or Spanish. These grievances can be filed based on race, color, national origin, sex, disability, religion, or familial status (Table B-5).

Local Data and Knowledge
History
The City of Victorville incorporated in 1962 and development patterns were focused around the development of the City’s railroad facility in Old Town Victorville and Route 66 in the late 1800s and early 1900s and George Air Force Base in the 1940’s. The largest period of growth in Victorville occurred in the early to mid-2000s – 1/3 of the City’s housing stock was built during time period. In fact, 80% of the housing stock in the City was built from 1980 to the present time. The majority of housing developed since 1980 has been planned unit development or master planned communities. Demographic data since 2000 indicates that the Hispanic or Latino population has grown from 33% in 2000 to 55% in 2018, while the Non-Hispanic White population has decreased from 47% in 2000 to 22% in 2018.
2015 Apple Valley/Victorville Consortium Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI)
The 2015 AI looked at the City’s overall lending patterns. The availability of financing affects a person’s ability to purchase or improve a home. Under the Home Mortgage Disclosur e Act (HMDA), lending institutions are required to disclose information on the disposition of loan applications by the income, gender, and race of the applicants. This applies to all loan applications for home purchases, improvements and refinancing, whether financed at market rate or w ith government assistance.
HMDA data is submitted by lending institutions to the FFIEC. Certain data is available to the public via the FFIEC site either in raw data format or as pre-set printed reports. The analyses of HMDA data presented in the AI were conducted using Lending Patterns TM. Lending Patterns is a web- based data exploration tool that analyzes lending records to produce reports on various aspects of mortgage lending. It analyzes HMDA data to assess market share, approval rates, denial rates, low/moderate income lending, and high-cost lending, among other aspects.
For this AI report, the HMDA data for Victorville was compiled by census tract and aggregated to the area that generally approximates the boundaries of the two jurisdictions. Utilizing Lending Patterns, this AI reviews fair lending statistics (such as spread disparities and denial disparities) by race/ethnicity, by lender, and in low/moderate income areas, as well as in minority concentration areas.
Home Purchase Loans
In 2010, a total of 1,118 households applied for conventional home purchase loans. This reflects an 86 percent decline for Victorville from 2007 lending activity. The substantial decrease in lending activity is reflective of lending patterns throughout the country. Housing prices, both in the region and nationwide, peaked in 2006 and 2007 marked the start of the housing market’s steep decline.
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-21
Mortgage lending in 2007, while not as vigorous as in the previous year, was still active. However, in the following years lending activity slowed down dramatically to match the lack of activity in the housing market.
The overall approval rate in 2010 for conventional home purchase loans was 69 percent and 18 percent were denied. This reflects a significant increase from 2007, when just 59 percent of applications were approved in Victorville. When the housing market began to show signs of collapse and foreclosures were on the rise, many financial institutions instituted stricter approval criteria for potential borrowers, which should have cause approval rates to drop somewhat. However, the applicant pool for mortgage lending in recent year s has also become smaller and increasingly selective. These applicants have generally been in much better shape financially then applicants from earlier in the decade, when the housing bubble attracted a wider range of potential borrowers.
Generally, two types of home purchase loans are tracked— conventional home purchase loans and government-backed home purchase loans. In a conventional loan, the lender takes on the risk of losing money in the event a borrower defaults on a mortgage. For government -backed loans, the loan is insured, either completely or partially, by the government. The government does not provide the loan itself, but instead promises to repay some or all of the money in the event a borrower defaults. This reduces the risk for the lender when making a loan.
Government-backed loans have more lenient credit score requirements, lower down payment requirements, and are available to those with recent bankruptcies. However, these loans may also carry higher interest rates and most require homebuyer s to purchase mortgage insurance.
Furthermore, government-backed loans have strict limits on the amount a homebuyer can borrow for the purchase of a home. In competitive and high- end housing markets, many of the homes available for purchase exceed the maximum allowable loan amount, making government-backed loans much less popular. The relatively lower cost housing market in Victorville, however, has made government-backed loans a feasible and practical option for homebuyers in the region.
In Victorville, th e number of applications for government -backed home purchase loans considerably surpassed the number of applications for conventional home purchase loans in 2010.
Approximately 2,611 home purchase applications were submitted through government -backed loans (for example, FHA, VA). Approval rates were similar to those for conventional home purchase loans. For Victorville, 69 percent of government -backed loan applications were approved. In 2007, government- backed home loans made up a considerably smaller proportion of total lending activity for both jurisdictions. Victorville residents filed 345 applications for government-backed home purchase loans. During this time, conventional home purchase applications overwhelmingly outnumbered applications for governm ent-backed loans for both jurisdictions. Since 2007, however, the increasingly stringent credit and down payment requirements for conventional purchase loans have caused potential borrowers to turn more
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-22
towards government-backed loans, where lending criteria is typically less strict. About 65 percent of applications for government-backed loans were approved in Victorville.
Home Improvement Loans
Reinvestment in the form of home improvement is critical to maintaining the supply of safe and adequate housing. Historically, home improvement loan applications have a higher rate of denial when compared to home purchase loans. Part of the reason is that an applicant’s debt-to- income ratio may exceed underwriting guidelines when the first mortgage is considered wit h consumer credit balances. Another reason is that many lenders use the home improvement category to report both second mortgages and equity-based lines of credit, even if the applicant’s intent is to do something other than improve the home (e.g., pay for a wedding or college). Loans that will not be used to improve the home are viewed less favorably since the owner is divesting in the property by withdrawing accumulated wealth. From a lender’s point of view, the reduction in owner’s equity represents a higher risk.
In 2010, 162 applications for home improvement loans were received in Victorville. Approximately 39 percent of applications from Victorville were approved, and about one-half of the applications were denied.
Home improvement financing, like home purchase lending and mortgage refinancing, was much more active in 2007. Victorville residents filed 15 times as many applications (2,431 applications) during 2007 than they did in 2010. Approval rates for this type of loan also decreased between 2007 and 2010, 41 percent of home improvement loan applications were approved in 2007.
Refinancing
Homebuyers will often refinance existing home loans for a number of reasons. Refinancing can allow homebuyers to take advantage of better interest rates, consolidate multiple debts into one loan, reduce monthly payments, alter risk (i.e. by switching from variable rate to fixed rate loans), or free up cash and capital. A substantial proportion of loan applications submitted in Victorville in 2010 were for refinancing existing home loans (1,703 applications). About 55 percent of refinance applications were approved and 24 percent were denied.
Refinance lending was much more active in 2007. The housing market peaked in 2006 and many households purchased homes during peak using adjustable rates and loans with low interest rates only for a short term. With the upward trending of adjustable rates and the expiration of the short- term low-interest loans, many households sought refinancing. In Victorville, 13,574 applications for refinancing were filed, nearly eight times more than the number of applications in 2010 but with lower approval rates. With the bursting of the “housing bubble” in 2006, many households were facing high housing payments and declining home value. Refinancing was far more difficult than they were led to believe when purchasing the home.
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-23
At the time that the AI was prepared, refinancing was substantially more difficult than it had been in the past. Financial institutions had established much stricter requir ements for mortgage refinancing, making it harder for homeowners to qualify for a refinance loan. Even homeowners who had excellent credit and a low debt-to-income ratio faced obstacles to refinancing, such as a lack of home equity. Some homeowners had little or no equity because they bought their property with minimal down payments; alternatively, many homeowners who had equity have watched it erode because of decreasing home values at the time. As a result, fewer households would qualify for refinancing. In response, federal legislation was passed to require lenders to work with homeowners to pursue loan modifications.
Lending Patterns by Race/Ethnicity and Income Level
The federal Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination in mortgage lending based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status or handicap (disability). It is, therefore, important to look not just at overall approval and denial rates for a jurisdiction, but also whether or not these rates vary by other factors, such as race/ethnicity. An analysis of lending patterns for different races/ethnicities of the same income levels can help reveal patterns not discernible when analyzing lending data by race or income separately.
In Victorville, the rate at which applications were wit hdrawn and incomplete was relatively consistent across all races/ethnicities and income levels in 2010. Asian applicants in 2007, however, did experience noticeably higher rates of fallout than all other racial/ethnic groups.
In 2010, Asian applicants in Victorville had the highest approval rates, while Black applicants had the lowest approval rates. Generally, approval rates for Black applicants were about 10 points lower than for White and Asian applicants in both 2007 and 2010. Approval rates for Hispani cs applicants have increased since 2007, and by 2010, approval rates for Hispanics were comparable to the approval rates for Whites. While Whites did not have the highest approval rates in 2010, they were the least likely to be denied loans. Denial rates for White applicants were notably lower than for all other race/ethnic groups across all income categories.
While this analysis provides a more in- depth look at lending patterns, it does not conclusively explain any of the discrepancies observed. Aside from income, many other factors can contribute to the availability of financing, including credit history, the availability and amount of a down payment, and knowledge of the home buying process. HMDA data does not provide insight into these other factors.
Subprime Lending
According to the Federal Reserve, “prime” mortgages are offered to persons with excellent credit and employment history and income adequate to support the loan amount. “Subprime” loans are loans to borrowers who have less-than-perfect credit history, poor employment history, or other factors such as limited income. By providing loans to those who do not meet the critical standards
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-24
for borrowers in the prime market, subprime lending can and does serve a critical role in increasing levels of homeownership. Households that are interested in buying a home but have blemishes in their credit record, insufficient credit history, or non-traditional income sources, may be otherwise unable to purchase a home. The subprime loan market offers these borrowers opportunities to obtain loans that they would be unable to realize in the prime loan market.
Subprime lenders generally offer interest rates that are higher than those in the prime market and often lack the regulatory oversight required for prime lender s because they are not owned by regulated financial institutions. In the recent past, however, many large and well -known banks became involved in the subprime market either through acquisitions of other firms or by initiating subprime loans directly. Though the subprime market usually follows the same guiding principles as the prime market, a number of specific risk factors are associated with this market. According to a joint HUD/Department of the Treasury report, subprime lending generally has the foll owing characteristics:
• Higher Risk: Lenders experience higher loan defaults and losses by subprime borrowers than by prime borrowers.
• Lower Loan Amounts: On average, loans in the subprime mortgage market are smaller than loans in the prime market.
• Higher Costs to Originate: Subprime loans may be more costly to originate than prime loans since they often require additional review of credit history, a higher rate of rejected or withdrawn applications and fixed costs such as appraisals, that represent a higher percentage of a smaller loan.
• Faster Prepayments: Subprime mortgages tend to be prepaid at a much faster rate than prime mortgages.
• Higher Fees: Subprime loans tend to have significantly higher fees due to the factors listed above.
Subprime lending can both impede and extend fair housing choice. On the one hand, subprime loans extend credit to borrowers who potentially could not otherwise finance housing. The increased access to credit by previously underserved consumers and communities contributed to record high levels of homeownership among minorities and lower income groups. On the other hand, these loans left many lower income and minority borrowers exposed to default and foreclosure risk. Since foreclosures destabilize neighborhoods and subprime borrowers are often from lower income and minority areas, mounting evidence suggests that classes protected by fair housing faced the brunt of the recent subprime and mortgage lending market collapse.
In Victorville, 32 percent of Black applicants received a subprime loan in 2007. Hispanics in Victorville fared a bit better— about 29 percent of Hispanic applicants received a subprime loan—

but not as well as White and Asian applicants who received the lowest proportion of subprime loans.
2016 Apple Valley/Victorville Consortium Assessment of Fair Housing (AFH) The City conducted an Assessment of Fair Housing (AFH) in 2016. The City analyzed R/ECAP’s and identified the following contributing factors: Lack of Community Revitalization Strategies, Private and Public Investments and Regional Cooperation, Deteriorated and abandoned properties and Type of Affordable Housing (availability, size and unit type).
The AFH analysis of Disparities in Access to Opportunities revealed low indexes for opportunities in education, employment, transportation, and exposure to poverty. This means that opportunities for groups within protected classes encounter barriers and are unable to progress. For instance, in assessing employment opportunities indicators by race/ethnicity and labor market index in the HUD provided data indicate that the highest opportunity is available to Asian or Pacific Islander, Non-Hispanic with an indicator of 17.49 following White, Non-Hispanic at 16.12. A person’s place of residence is correlated to the opportunities they have in obtaining employment and proximity thereto. Therefore, because a high percentage of Victorville residents commute to other cities within the San Bernardino County and other surrounding areas indexes for this category are low.
As a result, this also causes a person’s transportation cost to increase.
Additionally, the City’s AFH assessment of the HUD provided data depicted disparities in access to educational are near lower performing schools, Victorville’s index appeared below average school proficiency. The data suggest that among all races/ethnicity in close proximity to proficient schools, Asian or Pacific Islander, Non- Hispanic scored the lowest at 32.52 and the highest, Native American, Non-Hispanic at 37.54. Values ranged from 0 – 99 max, with the average being 49.
Based on the low indexes for Disparities in Access to Opportunities, the City listed several goals and priorities to lessen the contributing factors. Although the majority of the goals were long term, ranging from 10 – 30 years, short and continuous efforts will be made that include developing and expanding partnerships with school districts and related agencies to strategize and possibly align goals and objectives that create opportunities within these categories.
Contributing Factors identified for Disproportionate Housing Needs include similar factors as referenced in previous sections. The HUD based data and maps appear to indicate that the Black non-Hispanic population experiences a higher rate of housing cost burden. At the time of the assessment, the area located in Census Tract 99.08 significantly experienced a housing burden.
These households experience any four housing issues that include incomplete kitchen and plumbing facilities, overcrowding, or severe housing burden, which have housing cost greater than 50% of the household’s income. For these contributing factors, the City has included short and long-term goals. One ongoing activity to alleviate the disproportionate housing is to continue housing programs such as the Senior Home Repair and Mortgage Assistance Programs.
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-26
Publicly Supported Housing was also limited in the City of Victorville resulting in several contributing factors. Because of the limitations to access to publicly supported housing, many residents remained on waiting list to receive housing choice voucher assistance or access to other multifamily assisted housing, additionally; these units were not located within the City’s R/ECAP area. The City set a short term goal to collaborate with Regional and affordable housing agencies to create subsidized housing and reduce displacement pressures, assess the possibility of extending affordability restrictions on subsidized units that will be soon expiring, and promote housing choice city-wide. To supplement these activities, outreach, education and enforcement of local private fair housing laws was be encouraged and supported through collaboration with fair housing agencies and organizations.
Opportunities for persons with disability were limited in the areas of housing (in-home, assistance to housing accessibility modi fications, ADA accessible housing, and admissions to publicly supported housing), access to proficient schools, employment, and transportation. Although these opportunities are limited to other groups within protected characteristics, disabled persons face additional barriers. As a result to limited resources, the City prioritized the financing of its Senior Home Repair Program to further assist persons with disabilities address ADA accessible modifications or repairs. In addition, and as a part of the AFH, the City anticipated collaborating with non-profit agencies to address the needs the housing needs of persons with disabilities, provide and expand opportunities to proficient schools and employers. Although these were long- term goals, prioritization in alleviating these barriers was addressed in the AFH.
Community Workshops Summary
The AFH assessment included a community participation process. A community meeting was held in July 2016 to glean local input and knowledge from residents of the City, including fair housing issues and concerns. The community meeting was structured in the following format:
participants were introduced to the Con Plan and AFH (AFH) plan process through a presentation and then asked to discuss a series of questions related to housing and community development needs, their presumptions regarding areas considered segregated and/or challenged by poverty, including fair housing issues and concerns. The following are a summary of key issues were identified in comments of the AFH meetings:
Community Survey Summaries
In addition to the meetings, a Fair Housing Survey was also created. A thirty-question survey was disseminated through multi-channel methods to seek responses from members of the public who may be harder to reach by methods of face- to-face contact at events in the community or were possibly not interested in attending a community meeting. The Fair Housing Survey sought to gain knowledge about the nature and extent of fair housing issues experienced by Victorville residents as well as their opinions concerning the existence, or lack of, racially/ethnically concentrated areas of poverty, or areas deemed as disadvantaged within the Jurisdictions. The survey questions were also designed to gather information on a person’s experience with fair housing issues and
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-27
perception of fair housing issues in his/her neighborhood. The survey and flyers were available in English and Spanish, and distributed via the following methods:
• Survey made available in online format via survey monkey. • Hard copy information flyers and surveys placed at various community locations and public counters.
• Posted on Victorville’s municipal website.
• Solicited the participation of service providers and stakeholders via mass emails to also make the survey flyer, with survey web address and information on the community meetings, available in their offices and to distribute the information to their clients and other members of the community they felt would be receptive and responsive. • Surveys were solicited at a Homebuyers Resource Fair that was held on Saturday, June 4, 2016 at the San Bernardino County Fairgrounds. This event was in partnership between the High Desert Association of REALTORS® and First District Supervisor, Robert A Lovingood, County of San Bernardino.
Stakeholder Meetings Summary
Three stakeholder meetings were held in August 2016 – all in Victorville, with staff present. The stakeholder meetings were also held to discuss priority housing and community development needs in the respective Jurisdictions, including fair housing issues and concerns. Each stakeholder workshop was structured in the same format: participants were introduced to the AFH plan process by staff and then asked to discuss a series of questions related to housing and community development needs, including fair housing issues and concerns.
A comprehensive summary of housing-related issues identified by submitted surveys, community meetings, and workshops held, is found below.
Homelessness
Homelessness was one of the primary issues discussed by participants at the Victorville meeting.
Participants noted the lack of Homeless Shelters in the High Desert. There is just one in Victorville that serves a sphere of influence of approximately 500,000 residents. The High Desert is subject to extreme temperatures that can result in dangerous conditions for homeless persons. Most homeless services are located “down the hill” in the City of Sa n Bernardino, or other southern jurisdictions, creating a disparity in services available between the High Desert and the surrounding region.
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-28
Affordable Housing, Senior Housing, Reasonable Accommodation for Disabled Persons and Youth
Though segregation was not identified as an issue through various means of community contact, housing in general was still identified as a major need discussed by participants at the meetings.
Community members were primarily concerned about housing affordability and availabili ty for seniors, the disabled and youth. Participants discussed the housing needs of seniors with limited income, and the condition of existing housing; in particular about existing unmaintained rental apartments. A stakeholder noted that location of the most affordable housing has that to offer, but very little, in terms of amenities, are available within walking distance to some of the poorest neighborhoods in the High Desert. Access to transit, grocery stores, recreation services and safety were expressed as some of the services or opportunities that people must give up in order to live in an area that is affordable enough for their household.
Neighborhoods
Participants stated the importance of crime- free, safe neighborhoods. The importance of maintaining a safe, well-maintained community was emphasized at the meetings. If a community is safe and there are places for people to go (commercial and community-based), then residents will tend to remain in the community instead of seeking a way out. Non- reporting of crime was noted on several occasions as a barrier to an undesirable neighborhood being able to rebound.
Whether actual or perceived fear of retaliation prevents crime reporting, the effects can be detrimental to a neighborhood if it becomes known for unresolved crime activity.
Transportation
Many participants expressed their concerns as to the lack of transportation available throughout the High Desert. Participants communicated how many low -income families and people in the City of Victorville areas struggle to find reliable transportation. The result is missed appointments and poor illness management, even when care is readily available. Some households do not have a vehicle, or share one among multiple family members, and for those who are disabled, obese, or chronically ill, riding the bus can be a difficult undertaking. As a result, some people may find themselves without a way home after an emergency trip to the hospital; miss opportunities to schools, family or community events or simply miss a doctor’s appointment because they do not have a way to get there.
During the community participation process, all comments and views were considered and have been incorporated into this AFH. No comments were considered as immaterial or insignificant.
Economic Development
Lack of sufficient local employment in career level employment sectors continues to be an impediment to the local community and economy
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-29
Education
Lack of an educated work force continues to be an impediment to business attraction and employment opportunities.
During the last Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI), Victorville experienced impediments that continued to impact the City at the time of the Fair Housing Assessment. The impediments and strategies, at the time of the assessment, on how to reduce their impacts, and accomplishments are listed below:
Housing Discrimination
Housing Discrimination towards disability, race, and familial status has been a reoccurring issue. As a continued service, the City elected to continue contract services with Inland Fair Housing and Mediation Board (IFHMB). IFHMB provides fair housing services to residents, landlords, and other housing professionals. Available services, newsletters, and special event flyers are routinely posted on the City’s website. In addition, the City assisted in promoting special events by distributing informational pamphlets and flyers throughout public- owned buildings. In July 2016, the City of Victorville hosted and participated in a special workshop held by IFHMB to educate and assist tenants, property owners and other housing professionals on fair housing issues specifically for persons with disabilities. Discussion involved fair housing laws, introduction to the affirmatively furthering fair housing final ruling and requirements, reasonable accommodations or modification request allowable fees associated with reasonable accommodation or modification request. The event was highly successful, many interested persons, property owners and tenants attended. Persons who attended expressed their gratitude for the event. Their questions and concerns were addressed and real estate professionals felt they were more educated on how to assist persons with disabilities, particularly in providing reasonable accommodations.
IFHMB receives CDBG funding to provide residents with fair housing and landlord tenant mediation service and assistance. Along with these services, IFHMB assists the City of Victorville with its first -time homebuyer program, Mortgage Assistance Program (MA) b y providing homebuyer education and certification. Persons who receive their homebuyer education course by IFHMB receive information and training in the complete process of purchasing a home, budgeting, credit, mortgage loans, and how to keep your home. On behalf of the communities, IFHMB distributes fair housing materials, holds workshops on fair housing throughout the High Desert and San Bernardino County. IFHMB’s services have assisted an array of residents within the Communities. Many of which have received ‘one-on-one’ assistance in assisting homeowners who are at risk of losing their home by exploring many available options including loan modification, special forbearance, partial claims, loan repayment plans, loan reinstate plans, short sale options including the Homeowner Assistance Foreclosure Alternative (HAFA), and the Homeowner Assistance Refinance Program.

B-30
In addition to the above accomplishments, the City actively promoted the National Fair Housing Month held in April of each year, and posted HU D created posters and flyers throughout city hall, city website and social media outlets celebrating the National Fair Housing month.
Public Outreach
Public Outreach is a concern that needs to be addressed. Many residents, landlords and tenants are not aware of fair housing rights and services available. When encountered with fair housing issues, many do not believe reporting the incidents would help the situation. Some are also afraid of retaliation by the landlord. With this in mind, some of the adopted strategies were to (1) provide fair housing outreach and education services that will include, but not be limited to at least one of the following components: press releases, public service announcements, cable TV, radio, and newspaper outreach, updates in newsletters and/or other publications, events at the annual fair housing celebration, organized meetings or events relating to fair housing, and participation in community events such as fairs and trade shows; (2) initiate half-day fair housing workshops at City Hall annually, targeting residents, landlords, disadvantaged groups, and housing professionals; (3) outreach and education specifically for housing providers (i.e., landlords, property managers, realtors, lending institutions, and managers of publi c housing); (4) workshops to assist elected and appointed officials of each jurisdiction; and the general public..
The City also utilizes its City -owned electronic message board located on the east side of Interstate-15 to make public service announcements (PSA). The City routinely promotes PSA for non-profits, such as the High Desert Association of Realtors ® and special County of San
Bernardino events, etc.
Housing Choice Vouchers and Affordable Housing Units
Housing Choice Vouchers and Affordable Housing Units are limited resources to Hispanic households. Because many residents have been on the Housing Authority of County of San Bernardino’s (HACSB) waiting lists for choice vouchers for several years in hopes of qualifying for the Housing Choice Voucher program, HACSB has closed its ability to provide additional vouchers to new households who may reflect the current demographic profile of the City.
Although these choice voucher resources are limited, HACSB provides other affordable housing opportunities through other affordable housing developments it maintains. Currently, HACSB has an open waiting list. Additionally, the City of Victorville also provides financial assistance to facilitate the construction of affordable housing. These affordable housing complexes are privately owned, but contain affordable housing covenants to secure housing for very low and low-income households for several years. In support of HACSB’s efforts, the City will continue efforts in petitioning for additional voucher assistance from HUD. The City promotes any and all available resources to households in need. When opportunities arise, the City attempts to require rental property owners receiving financial assistance from the City to affirm their commitment to comply with fair housing laws, and attend fair housing training.
2021–2029 Housing Element

B-31
Housing for Persons with Disabilities
Accessible housing units and other housing options (such as transitional and supportive housing) for persons with disabilities are limited in supply. In a recent study car ried out by IFHMB, the majority of discrimination indicated this issue increase. In past AI’s, the City amended their Zoning Code to establish either a Reasonable Accommodation procedure. The City anticipates it will increase its efforts in awareness and training to further assist persons with disabilities with fair housing rights. Additionally, IFHMB has assisted residents with fair housing mediation services concerning reasonable accommodations.
Lending Practices
Overall, minority households in Victorville rely more heavily on smaller, lesser-known lenders for mortgage financing, which tend to have more liberal underwriting criteria. While this may promote homeownership to minority households, it may also encourage certain households to overextend financially. Furthermore, most of these lenders do not have local offices, making it so that applicants have to have in-person meetings with the lenders. Black households in general, seem to have more difficulty accessing financing. They experienced lower approval rates than other households in the same income group. Since 2007, the rate spreads for all race/ethnic groups have decreased significantly except for Black households. The rate spread for Black households remained the highest among all groups and actually has increased since 2007.
Among the top lenders, minority households also have high fallout rates (not completing or withdrawing an application). Some actions adopted by the Communities since the last AI are; (1) work with government agencies and nonprofi t groups that provide credit counseling and foreclosure workshops to conduct workshops in the High Desert area; (2) conduct lender workshops to provide outreach, education and encourage increasing pool of lenders participating in the down payment assistanc e programs; (3) continue contract services with IFHMB to monitor lending activities and contact lenders to address potential issues; (4) publicize results of Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA) data review to bring attention to the lending community, housing advocates, and the general public; (5) continue coordinating efforts with minority Chambers of Commerce to promote City and County programs and services, including home buying down payment assistance, credit counseling, foreclosure counseling, etc. The City of Victorville has recently met with real estate professionals in strategizing its marketing efforts to promote its Mortgage Assistance Program (MAP), Senior Home Repair (SHRP) and Owner - occupied Rehabilitation (OOR) Programs. Additionally, the City of Victorville has met with Lenders to conduct “one-on-one” training to ensure their knowledge of the City’s MAP is accurate and lending opportunities are given to all persons equally and fairly. The City anticipates it will launch a large Lender-Real estate professional training workshop in November 2016 to promote equal opportunity to home ownership among the very low , low and moderate- income households. The City anticipates in concentrating its efforts to the Old Town Area where home ownership is low among minorities.

B-32
Public Transportation
The Public Transportation System throughout the High Desert Area is limited. Many lower income households, seniors and persons with disabilities have many opportunities to housing resources offered and funded by the County of San Bernardino . However, access difficulties arise as they are dependent on the public transportation system. Many of these residents find that the public transportation system in the High Desert is difficult to navigate through and use.
Therefore, the City has made many efforts to expand public transportation by (1) petitioning to the County of San Bernardino to expand housing programs and services to the High Desert area vs. “down the hill”; (2) provide public transportation maps at public locations (at the time of the assessment, maps of transportation routes are available at City Hall); and (3) include navigating the public transportation system in programs and activities designed for seniors and disabled.
Foreclosures
Victorville has been impacted by the large number of foreclosures. Abandoned and foreclosed homes are often vandalized and trespassed, negatively impacting neighborhood safety and conditions. The lack of maintenance of foreclosed properties is a serious issue expressed by many participants of public meetings conducted as part of this AI. Goals and actions proposed and carried out by the City includes: (1) continue proactive code enforcement activities to address issues associated with abandoned and foreclosed homes; and (2) work with l enders holding the homes to ensure a reasonable level of safety and condition is maintained.
Real Estate Advertising
Previous AI indicated that advertising of for-sale homes and particularly rental listings contained potentially discriminatory language. Often such language encourages or discourages a particular group to inquire about the housing available.
Given the market condition, many homes are being used as rentals. Owners of these units may not be professional landlords and therefore are not familiar with fair housing rights and responsibilities. Some actions taken by the Consortium includes: (1) continued contract services with IFHMB to monitor the advertising of for-sale and for-rent units; and (2) publicize fair housing rights and responsibilities on City websites, newsletters, or other publications as a way of outreaching to landlords new to the rental business.
Accessibility of Public Facilities
Not all public buildings are accessible to persons with disabilities. Accessible sidewalks with ramps and curb cuts are also needed to allow circulation from one location to another. The City is working on improving accessibility in and to public buildings to facilitate participation in civic decisions by persons with disabilities. Annual evaluations of accessibility improvement needs of public facilities through the Capital Improvement Plan process to identify priority projects for funding have been started.

In October 2015, the City of Victorville City Council approved a Voluntary Compliance Agreement with HUD requiring a Self -Evaluation and Transition Plan that will identify ADA compliance barriers in City programs, activities and facilities. In addition, the Plan would provide with a timeline for completion of modifications to provide equal access. The deadline for the completion of the review and update is 240 days upon execution of the Voluntary Compliance Agreement. The May 2016 deadline has been extended to January 30, 2017. The City acquired the assistance of a firm, Disability Access Consultants (DAC) to assist with the Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan. Additionally, the City is working with Caltrans in developing an ADA Transition plan for facilities in the public right of way to be eligible to receive federal transportation funds. This plan is currently underway.
Discuss how you have been successful in achieving past goals, and/or how you have fallen short of achieving those goals (including potentially harmful unintended consequences); and The City of Victorville and fair housing service providers have successfully implemented ongoing consultation, education and workshops for the community. Affirmatively furthering fair housing continues to be a priority though recent community surveys have reflected less concern in relation to other priorities than in years past. Past goals and issues are starting points for current and future goals and strategies and included in surveys, questionnaires and community meetings to develop dialogue identify current concerns and plan strategies to be implemented in consolidated plan and annual action plans. The Housing Authority, County of San Bernardino administers affordable housing units in the Victor Valley, which includes Victorville. Affordable units are limited to funding, yet the area is generally more affordabl e at market rates than the regional area. Accessibility to public facilities remains a high priority and improvements continue as funding becomes available.
The City of Victorville has achieved many successes in assisting and maintaining affordable housing to its senior and permanently disabled population. Programs offered by the City, such as the Senior Home Repair (SHRP) and Owner -Occupied Rehabilitation (OOR) Programs has provided residents with opportunities to make eligible repairs to their homes. Many repairs include ADA, health and safety improvements. These residents normally do not have the financial means to make these repairs on their own; therefore, these programs remain in high demand. The City anticipates continuing to fund these programs in f uture years. Additionally, the City is in the process of expanding its programs that will help unrepresented protected classes, such as disabled persons, that are low and very -low income, make necessary repairs and improvements.
Old Town Victorville
Existing development in the Old Town area of the City of Victorville tends to have a pattern of overcrowding and substandard housing stock. The same area includes Census Tract 98, Block Group 2, where 72.5% of the households have an income below the poverty leve l, which is the highest poverty rate in the City. The Old Town area is primarily composed of the oldest housing
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-34
stock within the City, with construction largely dating back prior to the City’s incorporation and regular maintenance, vandalism, and construction methods not to current standards accounting for the majority of the substandard housing issues in the vicinity. This dated housing stock is also relatively small in size in comparison to the remainder of the City, with small lots and small homes but to accommodate historic railroad operations rather than families that currently reside in the area. Given the state of the available housing in Old Town, rents are typically lower than other areas of the City, and overcrowding is a byproduct of the rental rates and housing stock that is undesirable to residents who are not cost burdened by higher rental or home ownership costs.
The Old Town area has also been the subject of multiple revitalization efforts, with a Specific Plan and grant opportunities aimed at spurring development and improving quality of life, as well as potential funding mechanisms in development to provide a means to redeveloped dilapidated structure that will allow for new housing components.
Other Relevant Factors
Other contributions that affect the accumulation of wealth and access to resources include historical disinvestment, lack of infrastructure improvements, and presence of older affordable housing units that may be at risk of conversion to market-rate housing.
Land-Use
The Victorville General Plan and Zoning Ordinance provide for a range of housing types and densities with adequate amounts of available land for development. The City offers varying zoning standards to encourage lower cost housing.
In August 2006, the City of Victorvi lle adopted a Reasonable Accommodation in Housing to Disabled or Handicapped Individuals Ordinance. The purpose of this ordinance was to provide a process for individuals with disabilities to make request for and be provided, reasonable accommodation in th e application of zoning regulations to housing. This ordinance with Fair Housing Laws is administered by the City’s Development Department.
The City of Victorville is currently working towards the Revitalization of Old Town/Midtown Area.
The City invested financial resources to develop and updated the previous Old Town Specific Plan dated April 1995. Revitalization efforts are being considered to address old and unsafe housing stock, crime and blight, outdated and poorly functioning infrastructure, and declining of property values. City staff is currently researching and developing a comprehensive and strategic plan that involves the review of land use to make the Old Town area a way that pedestrian traffic will support retail businesses, increase residential development to support retail business and encourage business development. This will promote integration of compatible land uses; encourage greater recreational use of the existing open space; establish a location for cottage industry, live/work providin g more opportunities for people of lower income and disabilities; and to address the adjacent transit station as a focal point in the Downtown area.
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-35
Revitalization of Old Town will consider existing Downtown Development Codes, Capital Improvement, encourage a sales tax sharing program and promote infill housing development.
The goal to revitalize Old Town is to improve safety and provide more opportunities to minorities, such as the Hispanic population that currently resides in Old Town.
Investment Practices in Victorville
Victorville has a long history of utilizing public investment tools for economic revitalization and affordable housing. Victorville’s location has historically presented challenges to establishing a healthy and diverse economy as it had not been considered “centrally located” to Los Angeles.
Victorville utilized Redevelopment (which allows for tax increment financing to fund infrastructure, economic development and affordable housing) extensively with three major redevelopment projects within the City. In the 1990’s when George Air Force Base was ordered closed by the federal government, Victorville and surrounding cities formed a joint powers authority, the Victor Valley Economic Development Agency (or VVEDA), to assist with the economic impacts of the closure. These redevelopment projects had a measurable positive impact on the City and development of retail and housing was significant through the 2000s.
The Great Recession and Redevelopment Dissolution
However, two events had a significant impact on the City. The first was the 2009 financial crisis.
It is important to note that Victorville and the most inland areas of the region suffered the greatest numbers of foreclosures in southern California. The housing development that had been increasing every year and was at historic highs had halted. Housing development has still not reached pre-Recession levels as memories of the Recession impacts in the area are a lingering concern to investors and developers. The second was the eliminat ion of Redevelopment by State Law in 2011. The local investment by the City through Redevelopment ceased at a time when economic recovery from the Recession had not happened. These two events which occurred within 2 years of each other had a profound impact on the local economy and on housing development.
In response, the City utilized the tools that were still available. The Old Town Victorville and Civic Center Specific Plans were adopted to catalyze development in core areas of the City.
Additionally, economic growth and shortages of vacant land in Los Angeles and Orange counties has pushed development further inland over the past 20-30 years, inland cities such as Corona, Ontario and Fontana have become major retail, industrial and affordable housing in southern California. Technological changes and the COVID 19 pandemic have boosted an already evolving e- commerce phenomena and the inland empire is a highly desirable location for ecommerce distribution centers. Additionally, as median home prices in Orange County and Los Angeles are as high as $1,000,000 in some areas, the Inland Empire has experience a significant rise in housing development and is one of the few southern California areas that is still affordable to working people and young families.

Community Revitalization and Investment Area
The City is now working to establish a Community Revitalization and Investment Authority and Area (CRIA) to continue invest in and improve the Old Town area as was the City had intended with the Old Town Specif ic Plan. Once established, the CRIA has the ability to accomplish the following:
• Provide funding for the rehabilitation, repair, upgrading, or construction of infrastructure. • Provide low- and moderate-income housing.
• Remedy or remove a release of hazardous substances.
• Provide funding for seismic retrofits of existing buildings. • Acquire and transfer real property.
• Issue bonds.
• Borrow money, receive grants, or accept financial or other assistance or investment from the state or the federal government or any other public agency or private lending institution for projects.
• Make loans or grants for owners or tenants to improve, rehabilitate, or retrofit buildings or structures.
• Construct foundations, platforms, and other like structural forms necessary for the provision or utilization of air rights sites for buildings to be used for residential, commercial industrial, or other uses contemplated by the revitalization plan. • Provide direct assistance to businesses for new or existing facilities for industrial or manufacturing uses.
The CRIA’s Plan Area, which corresponds to the Old Town Victorville area with slight modifications, is comprised of approximately 400 acres and is located between Interstate 15 and the eastern boundary of the City. The Project Area includes the historic Old Town core, the area north of the railroad tracks, and the 7th Street corridor gateway leading into Old Town.
Overall, the Project Area is experiencing many socioeconomic and physical challenges.
According to the Old Town Specific Plan, ho melessness issues are significant in this portion of the City, with reports of widespread drug and alcohol use, loitering, and even prostitution causing clear safety concerns in the Project Area. Additionally, as businesses have left the area, vacant buildings have been a gathering place for homeless individuals, and a string of fires over the last several years has caused the City to demolish abandoned buildings proactively to prevent potential fires and minimize health and safety risks to the community. Because of these actions,
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-37
former deteriorated and dilapidated structures have been removed, leaving a large number of vacant lots in the area.
Old Town Specific Plan
The Old Town Specific Plan represents a blueprint for growth over the next 20- 30 years. The purpose of the Specific Plan is to serve as a tool for revitalization of the Old Town, presenting an opportunity to transform this district into a unique, vibrant, mixed-use focal point for the region.
This Plan promotes higher -density mixed- use development in the project area to bring new housing opportunities to the Old Town that will accommodate some of the new population growth that is anticipated to occur over the plan period. The Plan encourages new businesses and jobs to locate in Old Town and imple ments standards and guidelines to promote an attractive and pedestrian-oriented Old Town that reflects its historic character.
The project area comprises approximately 428 acres and is located between Interstate 15 and the eastern boundary of the city. The historic Old Town is the core of the project area and also includes the area north of the railroad tracks and the 7th Street corridor gateway leading into Old Town.
Historic Route 66 traverses the project area, leading northeast into town from Interstate 15 and then heading northwest along D Street. The Specific Plan area is organized in a grid network of blocks that orient themselves to 7th and D streets. Most blocks in the project area have mid - block alleyways.
Old Town is characterized by its small lots , compact form, and pedestrian scale. A number of historic buildings, including the Old Victor School, and cultural sites, such as the Route 66 Museum, contribute to the character of Old Town. At the intersection of D and 6th streets is the Victor Valley Transit Center, with a train stop along the Southwest Chief route connecting Los Angeles and Chicago.
The 7th Street corridor leading into the historic Old Town core is characterized by larger blocks, larger parcels, and buildings set back from the street with large surface parking lots adjacent to the sidewalk. It is an environment that prioritizes the car and is not as pleasant for walking as within the old Town core.
The area to the north of the railroad tracks is characterized by a lack of structure. Single -family homes and community uses are scattered amidst a large number of vacant lots. The lack of sidewalks and the numerous empty lots create an inconsistent pedestrian environment.
Tourism presents an important long- term opportunity for Old Town Victor ville. Before tourism can play a significant part in revitalizing Old Town, the required infrastructure to support tourism in the area must be in place. Entertainment, retail, and cultural destinations in Old Town must first be established and effectively marketed to visitors. Local hotels would form an important part of the supporting tourism infrastructure.
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-38
Development in the project area will be of a high quality that fosters a sense of place and instills pride in the community. Old Town will be an economically vibrant, walkable destination that is inviting to pedestrians, with a mix of different housing types and uses that serve residents and attract visitors. The 7th Street corridor will be redefined as the main street of Old Town, and the architecture will reflect a contemporary take on the city’s historic Route 66 heritage. (Old Town Plan – Vision)
Programs
The City of Victorville adopted multiple programs in the last Housing Element planning period to encourage more housing development to address the City’s housing needs. However, Victorville understands the need for more housing in the State of California and, therefore, the demand for more rigorous programs that facilitate housing development. Therefore, Victorville has modified past programs and proposed new ones to help achieve the goals of the Housing Element. These programs address housing mobility enhancement, new housing choices and affordability, place- based strategies for community preservation and revitalization, and displacement protection. A complete description of all Housing Element programs and actions is contained in Chapter 7:
Housing Plan, including the specific milestones and tim eframes. The following are some of the programs that were modified or added to address fair housing issues:
Housing Mobility Enhancement, New Housing Choices and Affordability • PP-A.2: Adopt a Density Bonus Ordinance and Create a Menu of Density Bonuses.
Pursuant to California Government Code Section 65915, the City will adopt a legally compliant density bonus ordinance. In addition, t he City will identify appropriate density bonus levels to offer to developers in exchange for the provision of certain community benefits and amenities. This program will allow for the development of a greater diversity of housing stock while also attracting private investment in the City’s affordable housing stock, streetscapes, parks and open spaces, and other community benefits as identified and prioritized by City Council.
• PP-A.5: Encourage the Subdivision of Sites that are 10 Acres or Larger. Encouraging the subdivision of sites that are 10 acres or more can provide more opportunities for development of affordable housing, which the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) has determined is more feasible on sites between 0.5 and 10 acres in size. During the 5th Cycle period, the City recorded 26 tract maps and approved 27 tentative tract maps. The tentative tract maps, 24 of which were more than 10 acres in size, contributed to the development of more than 5,600 mar ket-rate housing units. The relatively large number of subdivisions demonstrates the outsized role that subdivisions play in local residential development. The City will encourage the subdivision of large lots, particularly for affordable housing, by routi nely giving high priority processing to
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-39
subdivision maps that include affordable housing units. Additionally, the City will consider providing incentives, such as reduced setback and parking requirements, and increased allowable density, lot coverage, or floor area ratio.
• PP-B.1: Assist with Development of Low-Income Housing. To assist the development of housing for households with lower incomes, the City will seek to defer, reduce, or waive fees for land divisions, lot line adjustments, and Specific Plans proposing, or resulting in parcel sizes that facilitate, multi-family developments affordable to households with lower incomes (i.e., determined by the State to be 0.5– 10 acres). The City will work with property owners and nonprofit developers to target an d market the availability of sites with the best potential for development. In addition, the City will offer the following incentives for the development of affordable housing, including but not limited to:
o Streamlining and expediting of the approval process for land division for projects that include affordable housing units
o Ministerial review of lot line adjustments
o Deferral or waiver of fees related to the subdivision for projects affordable to households with lower incomes
o Reduced setback and parking requirements
o Increased allowable density, lot coverage, and floor area ratio o Technical assistance to identify funding and with the modification of development requirements
City staff will seek to have approximately 50% of the units developed as a result of t his program in lower resource areas to serve existing lower income communities and minimize displacement and approximately 50% of the units developed as a result of this program in higher resource areas to provide greater opportunities to lower income households. • PP-B.2: Expedite Development. Expedite development of housing projects for seniors, people with disabilities, or people with low and moderate incomes. The City will consider waving or reducing fees for shelters/transitional and permanent supportive housing projects. • PP-B.6: Senate Bill (SB) 35 Streamlined and Ministerial Approval Process. The City will establish a streamlined, ministerial review process for qualifying multi -family residential projects consistent with SB 35.
• PP-C.2: Update the City’s ADU Policies to Comply with Changes in State Law.
Multiple State laws have been passed since 2019 establishing statewide standards for local regulations governing ADU development. State law requires that ADUs be allowed on any single- family residential la nd, despite local ordinances or homeowners ’
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-40
association rules and requirements, as well as multi -family residential land. Additionally, State law requires jurisdictions to develop a plan to encourage and incentivize ADUs in an effort to address the current California housing crisis. The City will update the current ADU ordinance to ensure that the policies conform to State requirements, as established by Assembly Bill (AB) 3182 (2020), Senate Bill 13, AB 68, AB 881, AB 587, AB 670, and AB 671 (2019). Such an update would modify the requirements of ADU development in the City, including restrictions on unit sizes and allowance of ADUs in multi-family zones. • PP-C.3: Plan to Encourage ADUs. AB 671 requires local agencies’ housing elements to include a plan that promotes the creation of ADUs that can offer affordable rents for households with very low, low, or moderate incomes. As part of the ADU ordinance update (including public outreach), the City will also explore options to facilitate affordable housing options for ADUs , such as tiny homes, throughout the City . The City will also explore incentives and tools to facilitate ADU construction, such as pre- approved ADU plans or kits, waived development impact fees, increased outreach and education, larger unit square footage allowances and reduced setback and lot coverage standards in exchange for deed restrictions, among other incentives. • PP-F.1: Advertise Available Resources. In addition to providing funding opportunities related to HUD programs on the City’s website (See Proposed Program PP-B.4), funding opportunities will also be posted on all City social media accounts and include information on vacant surplus land currently owned by the City and information on local Opportunity Zones for the development of affordable housing (i.e., location, size, and zoning).
This program will be available for developments throughout the City, while target ing higher resource areas due to their greater competitiveness for low income housing tax credits and to promote opportunit ies for lower income households, with a target of approximately 70% of units developed in such areas and approximately 30% of units in lower resource areas.
• PP-F.2: Monitor Grant Opportunities and Maximize Grant Applications. The City will access informati on from HCD and other State agencies to identify grant application opportunities for affordable housing. When grant opportunities are known, the City will reach out to affordable housing stakeholders to identify projects and/or opportunities to include on grant applications.
This program will be available for developments throughout the City and will focus on developers and sites in higher resource areas due to the greater competitiveness for low income housing tax credits and to promote opportunities for l ower income households, with a target of approximately 70% of units developed in such areas and approximately 30% of units in lower resource areas.
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-41
• PP-F.3: Local Housing Trust. Study the availability of local resources available to establish a Local Housing Trust, a Community Land Trust, or similar nonprofit entity. The Trust will serve the entire City, with a focus on funding development in higher resource areas due to their greater competitiveness for low income housing tax credits and to promote opportunities for lower income households, with a target of approximately 70% of units developed in such areas and approximately 30% of units in lower resource areas. • PP-H.2: Adopt Ordinances and Policies that Encourage a Diverse Housing Stock for All Income Levels. Adopting or amending ordinances for Inclusionary Housing and permit streamlining can work together to encourage a diverse housing stock. See other objectives for proposed activities regarding such topics. • PP-L.1: Down Payment Assistance Program. Continue the mortgage assistance program and maximize funding for the program. Many residents have identified the lack of funds for a down payment as a major reason for not owning a home. • PP-L.2: Development Impact Fee Deferral for Affordable For -Sale Housing Development. Explore the potential deferral of development impact fees for affordable for-sale housing developments until close of escrow.
• PP-L.3: Development Impact Fee Waiver for Old Town Victorville Area. Explore the potential waiver of development impact fees for all types of housing within Old Town. • PP-Q.6: Remove Barriers for Renters. The City will review local ordinances and work to remove any barriers that keep residents from accessing safe and affordable housing, such as redlining and crime-free multifamily housing ordinances.
Displacement Protections
• EP-D.3: Residential Rehabilitation Program . This program is designed to facilitate home improvements and/ or correct any health and safety or building code violations. The program offers low-interest, deferred loans to income eligible homeowners throughout the City; loan funds are limited.
• PP-D.3: Support Nonprofits in Pursuing Rehabilitation Programs. Support nonprofit organizations in pursuing funding for residential rehabilitation programs and projects . In addition to providing a menu of incentives/concessions (See Proposed Program PP-B.4), the City will invite nonprofits to discuss the City’s plans, resources, and development opportunities every one to two years. As appropriate, the City will offer application assistance for state and federal financial resources. This program will focus on concentrated areas of poverty and areas with more code enforcement citations , with a target for at least 50% of assisted units to be in such areas.
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-42
• PP-D.4: Assist Residents with Extremely Low, Very Low, and Low Incomes.
Continue to use CDBG, HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME), and other funding sources for the City’s Residential Rehabilitation Program, which assist s residents with extremely low, very low, and low inco mes with housing rehabilitation Citywide.
Additionally, the City will work to promote the importance of property maintenance to long- term housing quality and the availability of resources for residential rehabilitation. To do so, the City will revise its website with more information and work with the Public Information Officer to provide more information to local families and community groups.
This program will focus on concentrated areas of poverty and areas with more code enforcement citations, with a target for at least 50% of assisted units to be in such areas. • PP-E.3: Replacement Housing. The Sites Inventory includes two non-vacant sites with existing residential uses. Neither site is subject to a recorded covenant, ordinance, or law that restricts ren ts. When housing development is proposed for these two non- vacant sites, City staff will determine whether current or prior site uses necessitate replacement affordable housing in accordance with Government Code section 65915. If the current or prior site uses necessitate replacement affordable housing, the City will ensure that replacement housing units at similar income levels will be created, either by the proposed developer of the site or another party. Furthermore, to minimize displacement, City staff will encourage redevelopment of existing housing to build at least as many units as exist, in total and of lower-income housing, especially in lower resource areas. • PP-J.2: Displacement Prevention. Minimize the displacement of households with lower incomes and special needs whenever possible and, where necessary, ensure that displacement is carried out in an equitable manner.
• EP-Q.1: Fair Housing Laws. The City contracts with the Inland Fair Housing and Mediation Board to provide investigation and counselin g assistance to address the alleged violations of federal and State housing laws.
• EP-Q.2: Redlining Complaints. The City follows the established protocol for referral of residents with redlining complaints to the appropriate authority.
Place-Making and Revitalization
• PP-F.5: Community Revitalization and Investment Authority. Establish a Community Revitalization and Investment Authority (CRIA) in the Old Town area that would allow the City to use a portion of the property tax increment generated in that area to develop affordable housing and otherwise support the Old Town community’s revitalization, including projects to address homelessness. The CRIA would further the implementation of the Old Town Specific Plan and support new residential development in a low resource area while simultaneously supporting the enhancement of the area to promote an
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-43
equitable quality of life. Improvements could include infrastructure, neighborhood walkability, access to transit, and other amenities (also Program PP-I.8). • PP-A.1: Update the City’s Land Use Element and Zoning Ordinance. Incorporate changes to bring the City’s Land Use Element and Zoning Ordinance into compliance with new State laws. Specifically, modify development standards and regulations to streamline and remove barriers to residential development (particularly affordable housing, accessory dwelling units (ADUs), emergency shelters, and t ransitional/supportive housing). These modified standards could include increasing R-4 development standards from 20 units per acre to 30 units per acre (See Proposed Program PP -A.4), reducing setback and lot coverage standards, creating objective standards, and waiving development impact fees, among others. Parking requirements for emergency shelters will be updated as part of the Zoning Ordinance amendment to be in compliance with California Government Code, Section 655834. Additionally, any modified standards shall be directed toward meeting the social and economic needs of the community (also Proposed Program PP-A.1). • PP-O.2: Safe Housing Conditions Education. Collaborate with local community organizations, especially those serving lower resource areas, to educate Victorville residents on safe housing conditions and equip them with the necessary tools to report such conditions to code enforcement officials. This would include annual outreach to local community organizations to organize educational events for, and deliver educational materials to, the local community
Furthermore, community and developer feedback obtained during the public engagement process provided the following recommendations that were included in Housing Element programs to encourage development in Victorville:
• Update the City’s Zoning Ordinance, along with the Land Use Element to modify development standards and regulations to streamline and remove barriers to residential development;
• Consider waving or reducing fees for shelters/transitional and permanent supportive housing projects; and
• Update the City’s Accessory Dwelling Unit policies to comply with change in the law and encourage the maximization of single-family lots.
Additionally, the review of the City’s 5
th Cycle Housing Element progress (Chapter 5: Review of Previous Housing Element (2013- 2021) allowed the City to identif y areas of improvement in developing the 6th Cycle Housing Element goals and policies.
2021–2029 Housing Element

B-44
Sites Inventory
The location of housing in relation to resources and opportunities is integral to addressing disparities in housing needs and opportunity and to fostering inclusive communities where all residents have access to opportunity. This is particularly important for lower‐income households.
AB 686 added a new requirement for Housing Elements to analyze the location of lower‐income sites in relation to areas of high opportunity.
Because all of the City’s census tracts are designated in the 2021 TCAC/HCD Opportunity Area Map as having a moderate or lower level of opportunity, the City identif ied resource areas differently. Resource-advantaged areas , from the City’s perspective, have higher levels of access to public services, public transit, parks, educational and employment opportunities, medical services, and other daily services (e.g., grocery and pharmacy).
Figure B-22 illustrates the location of the sites throughout the City, which are detailed in the Sites Inventory. Projected units are classified by affordability level in a way to balance locating lower- income sites in areas that are already zoned for higher -density residential development and in resource-advantaged areas:
• Improved Conditi ons: The sites are intentionally located throughout the City, taking advantage of the City’s rezoning program (PP-A.3, Increase Zoning in Areas Zoned for Multi-Family and PP -A.4, Change Zoning in Appropriate Commercial and Residential Zones), to maintain and encourage diverse neighborhoods and to provide the best amenities that the City has to offer, particularly for lower-income households. “Amenities” in this context refers to access to employment centers, commercial areas, schools, transit, parks, and public services.
• Exacerbated Conditions: Because sites are located throughout the City, some sites are located in areas of greater minority and/or poverty concentration. In particular, sites designated for lower-income units are more frequently located in Hispanic concentration and poverty concentration areas and in high segregation and poverty areas as identified by the 2021 TCAC/HCD Opportunity Area M ap. This relative concentration results from the City locating lower -income sites in areas that are already zoned for higher -density development, per the HCD guidelines. However, the City seeks to mitigate the impact of this concentration through its rezoning program (PP-A.3, Increase Zoning in Areas Zoned for Multi-Family and PP-A.4, Change Zoning in Appropriate Commercial and Residential Zones), which will encourage lower -income sites to be located in areas with more resources and will help to revitalize areas in which lower-income sites are located.
Integration and Segregation: Race and Income
Census tracts with the highest minority and poverty concentrations are located throughout the City. As a result, sites designated for lower -income units are located in such areas. In most
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-45
cases, however, the percentage of lower -income units in minority concentration areas are comparable to the percentages of moderate- and above- moderate-income units in minority concentration areas:
• 21% of lower-income units are located in Asian concentration areas, compared to 24% of moderate- and above-moderate-income units.
• 84% of lower -income units are located in African American concentration areas , compared to 87% of moderate- and above-moderate-income units. • 31% of lower-income units are located in (overall) minority concentration areas, compared to 25% of moderate- and above-moderate-income units.
• 66% of lower-income units are located in Hispanic concentration areas, compared to 47% of moderate- and above-moderate-income units.
• 23% of lower-income units are located in poverty concentration areas, compared to 3% of moderate- and above-moderate-income units.
The Old Town and Civic Center Specific Plan Areas, where the majority of current high-density- zoned sites are located, are also among the City’s poverty concentration areas. These Specific Plan Areas are still appropriate locations f or lower-income housing due to their high- density zoning and proximity to jobs, transit, schools, and public services. Furthermore, Housing Element Goal 7, Improve Quality of Life and Promote Placemaking, and corresponding policies and programs will help to improve these areas.
Without the program s to increase allowable density in residential zones and to rezone commercial areas for residential and mixed-use development (PP-A.3, Increase Zoning in Areas Zoned for Multi-Family and PP-A.4, Change Zoning in Appropriate Commercial and Residential Zones), the percentage of lower-income units sited in poverty concentration areas would be even greater. The program s enable the City to encourage high- density and lower -income development in portions of the City with a lower poverty concentration. Furthermore, the City intends for the siting of mixed-income sites in the Old Town and Civic Center Specific Plan Areas and for the up zoning of the Seventh Street Commercial Corridor to help revitalize the areas.
Racially/Ethnically Concentrated Areas of Poverty
The R/ECAPs in the City contain less than 4% of the sites, all of which are based on proposed or entitled developments. Furthermore, 99.6% of the units associated with those sites are designated for above- moderate-income households, which should help to reduce the concentration of poverty in that area.
2021–2029 Housing Element
Appendix B. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing
B-46
Access to Opportunity
Figure B‐1 shows housing sites identified in the inventory in relation to resource areas defined by the 2021 TCAC/HCD Opportunity Area Map. The sites currently identified to accommodate the lower ‐income housing need are located in areas throughout the City , including currently commercially zoned areas that the City has identified for rezoning to further fair housing more affirmatively. Approximately 28% of the lower ‐income units and 16% of the moderate- and above-moderate-income units are located in the City’s single significant moderate resource area.
The higher concentration of lower-income units in the moderate resource area depends on the City’s rezoning program.
Per the 2021 TCAC/HCD Opportunity Area Map, the City has no high resource or highest resource areas. Aside from three areas classified as moderate resource areas, t he rest of the City is either a l ow resource area or an area of h igh segregation and p overty. Lower-income units are less concentrated in the former (24% to 66%) but are more concentrated in the latter (49% to 18%). That concentration is due to the Old Town and Civic Center Specific Plan Areas’ status as high segregation and poverty areas. The City still believes that these are appropriate areas due to proximity to jobs, transit, schools, and government services available in the Old Town and Civic Center Specific Plan Areas.
Lower-income sites have a weighted job index score of 42 compared to a score of 35 for moderate- and above-moderate income sites, indicating more access to jobs for lower -income sites on average. This is due in large part to the higher job indices (above 60) for all block groups in the Old Town and Civic Center Specific Plan Areas:
• 99.98% of lower-income units and 67% of moderate- and above-moderate-income units are located within a half-mile of a transit stop.
• 82% of lower -income units are located within 1 mile of a school compared to 74% of moderate and above -moderate units. (All projected units are within 1.5 miles from a school, except for the units on Site 28, a proposed and entitled two- unit development located on the City’s outskirts, approximately 2.6 miles from a school.) • The City’s greatest concentration of government services is in the Civic Center Specific Plan Area, where 36% of units are designated for lower-income households. • 31% of all units Citywide are designated for lower-income households.
The Old Town and Civic Center Specific Plan Areas are in proximity to existing commercial areas, parks, public services, and other amenities. The Housing Element includes several policies to encourage lower-income housing near such amenities (HE-A.2, HE-M.3, HE-M.5, and HE-M.6). The City will ensure that residents of new lower -income housing will have access to these types of

amenities. Proposed Program F.5 will establish a Community Revitalization and Investment Authority in the Old Town Specific Plan Area that will support revitalization of the area.
Summary
The City’s Sites Inventory (with support from the City’s rezone strategy) will affirmatively further fair housing through the following:
• The distribution of candidate rezone sites across resource areas (including the higher share of lower -income units located in the City’s TCAC/HCD moderate resource areas and in areas with better access to jobs, transit, schools, public services, and other amenities).
• The planned revitalization of low resource areas.
Contributing Factors
A fair housing contributing factor is a factor that creates, contributes to, perpetuates, or increases the severity of one or more fair housing issues. Surveys of the community and discussions with community members, affordable housing advocates, and an assessment of fair housing issues identified several factors that contribute to fair housing in the City, as identified in Table B-6. The Meaningful Actions column references the Housing Element programs (as identified in Chapter 7 of the Housing Element) that will address fair housing issues and contributing factors.

Areas along the I-15 corridor and
East Victorville and near the
airport have closest proximity to
jobs; west Victorville has most
limited access to jobs
Community Revitalization and Investment Authority (PP-F.5). 1 Notes:
1 PP-F.5 is listed as a meaningful action for the fair housing issue location of employers because the City could use 75% of their property tax increment for economic development. This would be an economic development policy and not a Housing Element policy.
As identified in the assessment of disproportionate housing need and displacement risk in the Disproportionate Housing Need and Displacement Risk section, a shortage of both rental and ownership housing that is affordable to all lower-income households currently exists in the City.
The City is aware of these affordability issues and has identified the need for affordable housing in a variety of types and improvement of access to amenities and opportunities in low resource areas as priorities to meet unmet needs and to address fair housing.
In Chapter 7 of the Housing Element, the City has incorporated actions throughout the Housing Element goals, policies, and programs to address these factors and all issues identified in this assessment. The programs in the Housing Element will affirmatively further fair housing, per AB 686, and are i ntended to address significant disparities in housing needs and i n access to opportunity for all groups protected by State and Federal law. Furthermore, the programs in the Housing Element will ensure that the C ity furthers patterns of integration and development of affordable housing to have a positive impact on residents of the City and the Victor Valley region.
