ACTION:

Approve the Treasurer’s Report for January 2024
SUMMARY:

January 2024 City Treasurers Report

DISCUSSION:

Attached is the Treasurer’s Report for Cash and Investments for the month of January 2024.

The City utilizes both the California State Treasurer’s Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) and the California Asset Management Program (CAMP) for its city investments.

On October 12th, 2022, the City entered into an agreement with PFM Asset Management as an investment advisor for the City’s CAMP investment pool and established an additional managed CAMP account for long-term investments. Over time, this is expected to increase the returns on the City investments above the normal CAMP pool rate.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This is only a report of balances for the City, therefore it has no fiscal impact.

WHEREAS, in accordance with Chapter 17.280 of the Wildomar Municipal Code and California Government Code, the City Council, upon recommendation from the Planning Commission, has the authority to take action on the proposed Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 2023-06; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on October 18, 2023 for Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 2023-06, and adopted PC Resolution No. 2023-22 recommending City Council approval of Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 2023-06; and
WHEREAS, in accordance with Chapter 17.04.050 and 17.280.040 of the Wildomar Municipal Code, the Planning Department, on February 2, 2024, published a legal notice in the Press Enterprise, a local newspaper of general circulation, notifying the general public of the City Council public hearing set for February 14, 2024, regarding Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 2023-06; and
WHEREAS, in accordance with Section 17.280.040 of the Wildomar Municipal Code, the City Council conducted a duly noticed public hearing on February 14,2024, 2023, at which time interested persons had an opportunity to testify in support of, or opposition to Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 2023-06, and at which time the City Council received public testimony concerning Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 2023-

06. THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF WILDOMAR HEREBY DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1: ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION.

In accordance with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code § 21000, et seq. (“CEQA”)) and Title 14, Division 6, Chapter 3 of the California Code of Regulations (“CEQA Guidelines"), a review of the potential environmental impacts was conducted by the Planning Department for Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 2023-06. Based on this review, the Planning Department has determined that the adoption of the proposed amendment (which provides for only text changes) has no potential to impact the environment. Therefore, Zoning Ordinance 72 Amendment No. 2023-06 meets the criteria to be exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines, which states that CEQA applies only to projects that have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment, and where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Given these factors, Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 2023-06 meets the criteria for a General Rule Exemption pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of CEQA. As a result, the City Council hereby adopts a general rule exemption in accordance with the CEQA Guidelines as stated above.

SECTION 2. REQUIRED ZONING ORDINANCE AMENDMENT FINDING.

In accordance with Chapter 17.280.240 Wildomar Zoning Ordinance, the City Council makes the following finding approving Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 2023-

06. A. The proposed amendment is consistent with the City of Wildomar General Plan and Zoning Ordinance.

The proposed amendment is consistent with the City of Wildomar General Plan in that the proposed amendment will provide for more effective screening of commercial and industrial uses within the City by allowing more robust fence and wall regulations (Goal LU 4.1). Further, the provisions outlined in the amendment will not impact the visual character of the business areas in that the strict regulations will maintain order and consistency related to screening.

CC - REGULAR MEETING

CONSENT CALENDAR
Agenda Staff Report # 1.6
Meeting Date: March 13, 2024
SUBJECT:
2023 HCD Annual Housing Element Report
SUBMITTED BY:

Matthew Bassi
PREPARED BY:

Matthew Bassi

ACTION:

Receive and File this Report and Direct the Community Development director to submit to the Department of Housing and Community Development.

SUMMARY:

A report on the City’s progress in meeting its share of the Housing Element’s Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) for calendar year 2023.

DISCUSSION:

The 2021/2029 Housing Element is intended to identify and establish City policies with respect to meeting the housing needs of existing and future residents in the city. It establishes policies that will guide City decision-making and sets forth an action plan to implement its housing goals. The commitments are in furtherance of the statewide housing goal of early attainment of decent housing and a suitable living environment for every California family, as well as a reflection of the concerns unique to the City of Wildomar.

The primary purpose is to identify housing solutions that solve our local housing problems and to meet or exceed the regional housing needs allocation. The City recognizes that housing is a need that is met through many resources and interest groups. The Housing Element establishes the local goals, policies, and actions (programs) the City will implement and/or facilitate to solve our identified housing issues.

To this end, the City Council on October 13, 2021 adopted the 2021/2029 Housing Element (6th Cycle document). The element was subsequently certified by state department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) on December January 10, 2022. A copy of the certified 2021/2029 Housing Element is on the City’s website, and a copy is provided for reference in Attachment C.
83 In accordance with Government Code Section 65400, the City is required to submit on April 1 of each year an annual progress of the City’s efforts in addressing our RHNA allocation as delineated in the Housing Element. This year will be the 3rd year reporting period under the 2021/2029 Housing Element known as the 6th Cycle Housing Element period.

The reporting spreadsheets are much different than in years past due to the passage of SB 35 and AB 879 by the state legislature as part of the 2017 California Housing Law Package. As a point of clarification, the RHNA allocation numbers are applicable to all income categories, and not just the extremely low & very low categories. The City is required to plan for housing across all income categories, and every residential unit built in the City counts towards our RHNA allocation. However, the City is not mandated to ensure that all of its RHNA units are actually built. The City is only required to demonstrate to HCD that adequate sites are properly zoned to accommodate affordable housing.

2023 Reporting Analysis:

Since adoption of the 2021/2029 Housing Element (6th Cycle) by the City Council, the Planning Department has prepared and submitted to HCD the required annual reports. The 2023 progress report represents the 3rd of 8 annual reports submitted for this 6th Cycle housing period. Please refer to Attachment A for details.

In regard to the City’s RHNA allocation, Table HNA-20 of the 2021/2029 Housing Element (Page HNA-71) outlines what the fair share RHNA allocation is for the 2021/2029 housing planning period. The total RHNA allocation established for Wildomar is 2,715 units which are divided among the four (4) HCD required income categories (i.e., very low (includes very low), low, moderate, and above moderate) as summarized in the table (refer to Attachment B).

Table B of the 2022 Annual Progress Report (Attachment A, page 4 of 21) reflects the total breakdown of units built since the start of the 6th Cycle reporting period in 2023. As illustrated in Table B, a total of 513 new units were issued building permits, and of those, 35 units received a certificate of occupancy in 2023 in the moderate and above moderate categories.

Staff anticipates that this number will significantly increase in 2024 given the number of units that will be completed with the current construction activity.

Since adoption of the 2021/2029 Housing Element, a total of 633 units have received building permits across all income categories. This leaves a “balance” of 2,082 units remaining to be built. As this is the 3rd year of the current 6th Cycle reporting period, the City’s remaining RHNA allocation in each income category is noted in Attachment B table.

Of importance to note is that the City in 2021 approved a 222-unit, SB 35 affordable housing project known as Tres Lagos Housing project. Phase 1 and 2 of this project has been graded and vertical construction of about 176 units will occur throughout 2024. In addition, the City 84 recently approved a 2nd SB 35 affordable housing project known as the “Wildomar Cottages” in May 2023 consisting of 128 affordable multi-family units (located in Sedco Hills). The Applicant at this time is still pursuing funding. Collectively, the Tres Lagos and Wildomar Cottages affordable housing projects will create 350 affordable housing units which counts towards our RHNA allocation within the very low to moderate income categories. As the state continues to push its housing agenda onto local government agencies, it is likely that the city will see other SB 35 affordable housing projects during the 2021-2029 reporting period.

Conclusion:

The City is required to submit the 2023 annual housing progress report to HCD by April 1, 2024. The Planning Commission reviewed the report at its February 7, 2024 meeting.

Included with the annual report is a summary of the actions taken by the City on its progress in meeting the adopted 2021/2029 housing element action items (refer to Table D (Attachment A, Pdf page 5 - 21). As noted in this table, the City continues to make good progress on its 29 action items outlined in the 2021/2029 Housing Element. The report is tentatively scheduled for City Council review at its meeting on March 13, 2024.

Name of Program Objective Timeframe in H.E Status of Program Implementation

PROGRAM H-

1.1:Updated Available
Sites Inventory
The City will monitor the Available Sites Inventory annually as projects are processed through the Planning Department to ensure sufficient capacity is maintained to accommodate the City’s remaining RHNA numbers.

Update the Available Sites
Inventory on an annual basis
The City regularly reviews its Available Sites
Inventory, analyzing both vacant and underutilized
land, to ensure sufficient capacity exists for
building the remaining RHNA-required housing
units, particularly across income categories.

PROGRAM H-

1.2:Large Sites.

The City will provide for the inclusion of mixed-income housing in future new growth areas of the city through
development agreements, specific plans, and other
mechanisms. To facilitate the development of affordable housing on parcels (that can accommodate 50 to 150 units), the City will routinely give high priority to processing subdivision maps that include affordable housing units. Also, an expedited review process will be available for the
subdivision of larger sites into buildable lots where the development application can be found consistent with the General Plan, applicable Specific Plan, and master
environmental impact report.

The City will offer the following incentives for the
development of affordable housing on large sites, which may include, but is not limited to:
•Streamlining and expediting the approval process for land division for projects that include affordable housing units, •Ministerial review of lot line adjustments,
•Deferral of fees related to the subdivision for projects affordable to lower-income households, and
•Providing technical assistance to acquire funding.

Develop incentive program
by April 2022 and provide
incentives as projects are
submitted.

Wildomar is tackling its growth with two major
developments:

1. Wildomar Meadows: This 750-acre project
aims for balance, with half dedicated to green
space and the other half housing single-family
homes, apartments, commercial centers, and a
new school.

To expedite the project, the City is exploring
innovative solutions:

Fee assistance: This could help developers
overcome infrastructure costs, paving the way for
quicker progress.

Grant funding: Direct financial support would
further incentivize investment in Wildomar

October 2023.

Wildomar streamlined its land use framework with
two key actions:

1. Rezoning 270 acres on January 12, 2022
(Ordinance No. 210): This ensured harmony
between zoning and General Plan designations,
fostering unified land use decisions.

2. Launching the 'Envision Wildomar 2050'
General Plan update: This ongoing initiative
scrutinizes overall consistency and implements
necessary adjustments, further strengthening the
City's development vision.

PROGRAM H-

2.1:Strategic Planning
Opportunities.

Use the City’s GIS to facilitate preliminary strategic planning studies to identify vacant or underutilized commercial
properties for infill construction or adaptive reuse in high- density areas. The City will identify the sites with GIS and do a visual assessment to confirm their current use.

Identify vacant or
underutilized commercial
land by June 2022, update
annually thereafter.

The City is reviewing all vacant and underutilized
sites as a part of the General Plan update,
planned for adoption in 2024.

PROGRAM H-

3.1:Multifamily
Development.

To assist in the development of affordable housing, the City will continue to offer density bonuses (consistent with State Law) as well as assist interested developers to apply for government financing and/or other government subsidies, assist interested developers in acquiring surplus government land suitable for multifamily development, expedite permit processing, consider reducing parking standards and lot sizes, and consider waiving impact fees for extremely low-, very low-, and low-income dwelling units (these actions identified are not limited to density bonuses).

Publish informational
materials on density
bonuses to be distributed to
developers annually and
posted on the City’s website.

Allow density bonuses on an
ongoing basis as eligible
projects are proposed.

The City has two specific plans in process.

Wildomar Meadows specific plan area which
included 750 acres. The plan proses that half of
the area be preserved, and the other half will be
developed with single-family, multi-family, and
commercial, and a new school.

The second specific plan is the Bluffs Specific
Plan which inlcues168 acres. The plan proposes
a mix of multi-family, and mixed-use
entertainment, and industrial uses.

Wildomar Cottages Affordable Housing Project, a
130-unit affordable housing project (SB 330) was
granted a density bonus and parking reduction,
the project will provide housing for low-income
families, with 26 units reserved for extremely low-
and very low-income households and 101 units
for low-income households for a 55-year period.

annual reports to ensure that the development community (both nonprofit and for-profit) is aware of the housing programs, technical assistance, and available funding. The purpose of these actions will be to increase the supply of affordable housing both in areas with lower-median incomes and concentrated poverty to reduce displacement risk due to cost and in high resource areas to promote housing mobility opportunities
Meet with developers and
non-profits annually to
discuss affordable housing
opportunities and assist with
recommendation letters,
regulatory assistance, or
other appropriate actions as
projects are processed
through the Planning
Department. Make the
Housing Element and
associated information
available to developers
within two months of
adoption.

The City continues to expediate all projects that
come forward and is considering offering fee
assistance or grants money to help pay for
infrastructure for the Wildomar and Bluffs Specific
Plans.

Program H-4.1:

Expand Housing
Opportunities
Work with local nonprofits and public and private sponsors to expand housing opportunities for lower-income households and special needs persons to reduce displacement risk for these residents due to overpayment and overcome a
shortage of accessible housing and possible overcrowding by increasing housing mobility options. To encourage
developers to provide affordable homeownership
opportunities, the City will offer incentives, which may include, but are not limited to, fee waivers or deferrals, expedited permit processing, and/or reduced parking
requirements based on the bedroom mix of the project.

Additionally, the City will offer similar incentives for the construction of new rental housing for special needs groups, including persons with physical and developmental
disabilities.

Apply for HOME funds
annually, meet with
developers annually to
discuss the creation of low
income ownership units.

Provide information on
incentives for rental units to
interested developers
annually.

The City continues to work with Wildomar family
housing LP an affirmed housing group out of San
Diego on an SB 35 project that will be affordable
to lower income households and will provide
housing for special needs populations. This SB 35
project by Affirmed Housing was approved in May
2023.

PROGRAM H-

5.1:Annual Review of
the Housing Element.

The City will review the Housing Element on an annual basis to determine the effectiveness of the Housing Element in achieving goals and objectives. The City will provide annual reports to the Planning Commission and City Council as to the effectiveness of the Housing Element. The City will take actions necessary to correct any inconsistencies. A copy of this report will be sent to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) and
California’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR) as
re
quired by state law.

Annually, complete by April 1
of each year (starting in April
2022)
The City continues to provide annual reports to
the Planning Commission and City Council as to
the effectiveness of the Housing Element.

PROGRAM H-

6.1:Development
Review and Processing
Procedures
The City will continually seek to improve its development review/processing procedures to minimize, to the extent possible, the time required for review of development
projects. This reduction in time will reduce the cost to developers and may increase the housing production in the city.

Annually review processing
procedures and amend as
needed.

The City is in the process of updating its
Development Code (Zoning Code). As a part of
the update process, the City is reviewing all
development review/processing procedures. This
review look to minimize, to the extent possible,
the time required for review of development
projects.

PROGRAM H-

6.2:Building Code.

As new uniform building codes are adopted by the State of California, the City will review its building codes for current compliance and adopt the necessary revisions to further local develo
pment objectives.

PROGRAM H-

7.1:Incentives for
Development of
Housing
The City will offer fast track/priority processing, density bonuses, and fee subsidies (when feasible) to developers proposing new housing, mixed-use, or infill projects
affordable to lower-income households, farmworkers,
seniors, and other special needs groups, including persons with physical and developmental disabilities. The intent of these incentives is to increase the supply of affordable housing in areas with lower median incomes to reduce
displacement risk for these residents and in high resource areas to promote housing mobility through affordable
housing near areas of opportunity.

Develop materials to market
these incentives by
December 2021, distribute
annually to developers and
post on the City’s website.

Wildomar incentivizes development with
streamlined processes and density bonuses. This
approach is exemplified by Wildomar Cottages
Affordable Housing Project, a 130-unit affordable
housing project (SB 330) that includes 2 – 4
bedrooms ranging in size from 787 square feet to
1,233 square feet. This SB 330 application was a
prelude to the formal SB 35 affordable housing
project application that was formally submitted to
the Planning Division on February 16, 2023.

Utilizing a density bonus and parking reduction,
the project will provide housing for low-income
families, with 26 units reserved for extremely low-
and very low-income households and 101 units
for low-income households for a 55-year period.

PROGRAM H-

8.1:Density Bonus
To comply with California Government Code Section 65915, as revised, the City of Wildomar will amend its Wildomar Municipal Code to be consistent with state density bonus law.

Amend Wildomar Municipal
Code by December 2022.

The City amended the Wildomar Municipal Code
in March 2023 to comply with state law.

Dwelling Units
The City will amend the Wildomar Municipal Code to clarify that Accessory Dwelling Units (ADU) are permitted in all zones that permit single-family or multi-family uses, in accordance with California Government Code Section
65852.2. The City will promote ADU development by
providing guidance and educational materials on the City’s website and will promote these materials in high resource areas and areas dominated by low-density residential
development to encourage affordable housing in areas of high opportunity to reduce displacement risk and improve access to opportunity and services. Information will include the advantages of building ADU’s, including permitting
procedures and construction resources. The City will also work with City Council to identify possible incentives for the development of ADU’s.

Amend Wildomar Municipal
Code by June 2022.

The City amended the Wildomar Municipal Code
in March 2023 to comply with state law.

PROGRAM H-

10.1:Priority for
Affordable Projects
Give priority to permit processing for projects providing affordable housing when requested. Expand application of processing priority to projects providing housing for seniors and other special needs groups, including persons with
physical and developmental disabilities, large families, extremely low-income households, farmworker housing, and homeless.

As projects are approved
through the Planning
Department
As projects come forward the City will continue to
provide priority permit processing for affordable
housing projects.

PROGRAM H-

11.1:Extremely Low-
Income Households.

California Government Code Section 65583(a) requires the City to identify zoning to encourage and facilitate housing suitable for extremely low-income households, such as
supportive housing and single-room occupancy units.

Housing for extremely low-income households will provide affordable housing for persons at risk of homelessness to minimize displacement risk. The City encourages the
development of housing for extremely low-income
households through a variety of activities, such as performing outreach to housing developers on at least an annual basis, providing financial (when feasible) or in-kind technical assistance or land write-downs, providing expedited
processing, identifying grant and funding opportunities, applying for or supporting applications for funding on an ongoing basis, reviewing and prioritizing local funding at least twice in the planning period, and/or offering additional incentives beyond the density bonus.

Reach out to housing
developers annually and as
projects are processed
through the Planning
Department.

The City did not have any projects in 2023 that
included units affordable to extremely low- income
households. However, the Wildomar Cottages
Affordable Housing Project, a 130-unit affordable
housing project has 128-units affordable to very
low- and low- income households.

PROGRAM H-

11.2:Residential Care
Facilities
The City will explore amending provisions in the Wildomar Municipal Code to allow State-licensed residential care facilities for seven or more persons only subject to those restrictions that apply to residential uses in the same zone or otherwise amending the Wildomar Municipal Code to make it easier to locate a State-licensed residential care facility for seven or more persons in the City. Residential care facilities would still be subject to state licensing. Increasing the areas in which large residential care facilities are allowed would assist in creating housing for special needs groups near services; the City will encourage developers to site
residential care facilities near high resource areas to improve access to services for this population and to reduce
displacement risk for these residents by increasing the supply of suitable housing options in the city.

Identify if barriers exist to
development of residential
care facilities for seven or
more persons by December
2021 and amend the
Wildomar Municipal Code by
July 2022 if needed.

The City amended the Wildomar Municipal Code
in March 2023 to comply with state law.

The City will amend the Wildomar Municipal Code to treat employee/farmworker housing that serves six or fewer
persons as a single-family structure and permit it in the same manner as other single-family structures of the same type within the same zone across all zones that allow single- family residential uses. The amendment will also treat
employee/farmworker housing consisting of no more than 12 units or 36 beds as an agricultural use and permit it in the same manner as other agricultural uses in the same zone, in compliance with the California Employee Housing Act
(Health and Safety Code Sections 17021.5 and 17021.6).

The City will also remove the Farm Labor Camp, Migrant
Agricultural Workers Mobile Home Park, and Agricultural Mobile Home uses from the Wildomar Municipal Code as
employee/farmworker housing will replace the Farm Labor Camp and mobile homes and mobile home parks for
farmworkers are treated the same as any other mobile home or mobile home park in the City.

Amend the Wildomar
Municipal Code by June
2022.

In 2022, the City amended the Wildomar
Municipal Code to allow residential care facilities
for 7 or more persons consistent with state law.

PROGRAM H-

12.1:Regional
Homeless Issues.

WILDOMAR HOUSING ELEMENT

Adopted – October 13, 2021 HE-1

INTRODUCTION
The City of Wildomar’s Housing Element identifies and establishes the City’s policies with respect to meeting the needs of existing and future residents in the city. It establishes policies that will guide City decision-making and sets forth an action plan to im plement its housing goals. The commitments are in furtherance of the statewide housing goal of early attainment of decent housing and a suitable living environment for every California family, as well as a reflection of the concerns unique to the City of Wildomar.

PURPOSE
The purpose of the Housing Element is to identify ho using solutions that solve our local housing problems and to meet or exceed the regional housing needs allocation. The City recognizes that housing is a need that is met through many resources and interest groups. This Housing Element establishes the local goals, policies, and actions (programs) the City will implemen t and/or facilitate to solve our identified housing issues.

State Housing Element law requires the Housing Element to be consistent and compatible with other General Plan elements. The Housing Element should provide clear policy direction for making decisions pertaining to zoning, subdivision approval, housing allocations, and capital improvements. State law (California Government Code Sections 65580 throug h 65589) mandates the content of the Housing Element and requires an analysis of:
 Population and employment trends
 The City’s fair share of the regional housing needs
 Household characteristics
 An inventory of land suitable for residential development  Governmental and non-governmental constrai nts on the improvement, maintenance, and development of housing
 Special housing needs
 Opportunities for energy conservation
 Publicly assisted housing developments that may convert to non-assisted housing developments 110

WILDOMAR HOUSING ELEMENT

HE-2 Adopted – October 13, 2021

The purpose of these requirements is to develop an understanding of the existing and projected housing needs within the community and to set forth policies and schedules promoting the preservation, improvement, and development of diverse housing types available at a range of costs in Wildomar.

GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY
State law requires that “the general plan and elements and parts thereof comprise an integrated, internally consistent, and compatible statement of policies.” The purpose of requiring internal consistency is to avoid policy conflict and provide a clear policy guide for th e future maintenance, improvement, and development of housing within the city. All elements of the Wildomar General Plan have been reviewed for consistency in coordination with the update to the Housing Element. The City will co ntinue to review and revise the Housing Element as necessary, to maintain General Plan consistency.

Concurrently with the Housing Elemen t update the City is evaluating an d amending as needed the Safety and Conservation Elements of the General Plan to incl ude analysis and policies regarding flood hazard and management information, per Assembly Bill (AB) 162 (California Government Code Section 65302).

Additionally, the City is aware of Government Code Section 65302(h) requirements related to environmental justice and are addressing the requirements along with the Housing Element update.

REGIONAL HOUSING NEEDS ALLOCATION
The first step in addressing state housing needs is the Regional Housing Needs Plan, which is mandated by the State of California (California Government Code Section 65584) and requires regions to address housing issues and needs based on future growth projections for the area. The Californi a Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) allocates regional housing needs numbers to regional councils of governments throughout the state. The Regional Housing Needs Plan for Riverside County is developed by the Southern California Association of Governments (SCA G) and allocates to cities and the unincorporated county their “fair share” of the region’s projected housing needs, also know n as the Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA). The Regional Housing N eeds Plan allocates the RHNA based on household income groupings over the five-year planning period for each specific jurisdiction’s Housing Element.

On March 4, 2021, SCAG adopted the Final RHNA Plan for the 2021-2029 planning period. The allocation for the City of Wildomar is a total of 2,715 housing units. The City must identify sites to accommodate these units in the Housing Element. The breakdown of this allocation by income category is shown in Table H-1.

HOUSING GOALS, POLICIES, AND PROGRAMS
An important component of the Hous ing Element is the City’s description of what it hopes to achieve during the current planning period. This is accomplished with a statement of the Ci ty’s goals, policies, programs, and quantified objectives relative to th e maintenance, preservation, improvement, and development of housing to meet the present and future needs of all economic segments of the population.

GOAL H-1: Assist in the development of adequate housing to meet the city’s fair share of the region’s housing needs for all economic segments of the population.

ADEQUATE HOUSING
POLICY H-1: Ensure there is a sufficient supply of multifamily and single-family zoned land to meet the housing needs identified in the Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA).

PROGRAM H-1.1: Updated Available Sites Inventory. The City will monitor the Available Sites Inventory annually as pr ojects are processed through the Planning Department to ensure sufficient capacity is maintained to accommodate the City’s remaining RHNA numbers.

Responsible Agency: Planning Department
Time Frame: Update the Available Sites Inventory on an annual basis Funding Source: General Fund
PROGRAM H-1.2: Large Sites. The City will provide for the inclusion of mixed- income housing in future new growth areas of the city through development agreements, specific plans, and other mechanisms. To facilitate the development of affordable housing on parcels (that can accommodate 50 to 150 units), the City will routinely give high priority to processing subdivision maps that include affordable housing units. Also, an expedited review process will be available for the subdivision of larger sites into buildable lots where the development application can be found consistent with the General Plan, applicable Specific Plan, and master environmental impact report.

The City will offer the following incentives for the development of affordable housing on large sites, which may include, but is not limited to:

Adoption Draft – August 2021 HNA-1

PUBLIC PARTICIPATION
The California Government Code Section 65583(c)(6) requires that local governments make diligent efforts to solicit public participation from all economic segments of the community, especially low-income persons, in the development of the Housing Element. During the preparation of this Housing Element update, public input was actively encouraged in a variety of ways. The element was posted to the City of Wildomar’s website, and a hard copy was available for review at City Hall. The draft and final Housing Element were also provided to the California Department of Housing and Co mmunity Development (HCD) for review and comment.

The City offers translation services as requested. No services were requested as a part of this outreach program

PLANNING COMMISSION STUDY SESSION
On December 2, 2020, the City held a Planning Commission Study Session on the 2021-2029 Housing Element update and invited the public to attend and participate in this virtual event. The City sent a flyer with information about the workshop to local service prov iders, affordable housing developers, and other community organizations in an effort to reach specia l needs groups and lower-income households that may not have seen the information posted at City buildings or on the City’s website. City staff presented an overview of the Housing Element update process and required contents of the element, discussed early strategies to meet their regional housing need alloca tion, and solicited feedback from the Planning Commission and community members on these strateg ies and other housing needs in Wildomar.

Commissioners expressed their support for increasing the availability of affordable housing and interest in considering a variety of units, including accessory d welling units (ADU’s) to meet this need. No community members chose to participate during the open discussion and questions portion of the presentation; however, the event was held virtually and is available on the Ci ty’s website, so residents have ongoing access to this information.

Summaries of the April 21 Planning Commission and May 21 City Council study sessions will be added following each meeting.

AGENCY CONSULTATIONS
To ensure that the City was soliciting feedback from all segments of the community, consultations were conducted with service providers and other stakehol ders who represent different socio-economic groups.

Between December 2020 and January 2021, the City of Wildomar reached out to 12 stakeholder organizations to offer the opportunity for each to provide on-on-one input on housing needs and programs. Of these 12 organizations, 5 responded and provided input to the City. These included:
 Inland Regional Center – December 15, 2020
138

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

HNA-2 Adoption Draft – August 2021

 Affordable Housing Clearinghouse – December 16, 2020
 Fair Housing Council of Riverside County – December 18, 2020  Habitat for Humanity-Inland Empire – December 23, 2020  Southern California Association of Non-Profit Housing – January 12, 2021 In each consultation, the stakeholders were asked the following questions:

1. What three top opportunities do you see for the future of housing in Wildomar? What are your three top concerns for the future of housing in Wildomar?

2. What types of housing do your clie nts prefer? Is there adequate rent al housing in the City? Are there opportunities for home ownership? Are there accessible rental units for seniors and persons with disabilities?

3. Where have your clients been able to afford housing, if at all? What continues to be a struggle in allowing your clients/people you serve to find and keep affordable, decent housing?

4. What are the biggest barriers to finding affordable, decent housing? Are there specific unmet housing needs in the community?

5. How do you feel about the physical condition of housing in Wildomar? What opportunities do you see to improve housing in the future?
Through these consultations, stakeholders identified several barriers to housing, especially for lower-income households. These included the cost of land and construction, as well as the availability of land at a reasonable price that is zoned to support the densities required for affordable housing, and the current limited availability of affordable housing options. Stakeholders noted that while there are available rental and homeownership opportunities in general, many of these are not ac cessible to lower-income households, persons with disabilities, and large households. Multiple stakeholders discussed the shortage of housing units with three or more bedrooms to accommodate larger households. Stakeholders identified opportunities to address barriers to housing as increased investment in transitional services for homeless individuals, down payment assistance programs, training opportunities on the homebuying proce ss, and health inspections of units that residents report as having physical issues, such as insect infestat ions or mold. The City has included serval programs under Housing Element Goal H-4 -- Conserve and improve the condition of the housing stock, particularly affordable housing, to assist with these identified needs. 139

HNA-4 Adoption Draft – August 2021

EVALUATION OF THE PREVIOUS HOUSING ELEMENT
Per California Government Code Section 65588, “Each local government shall review its housing element as frequently as appropriate to evaluate all of the fo llowing: (1) The appropriateness of the housing goals, objectives, and policies in contributing to the attainme nt of the state housing goal. (2) The effectiveness of the housing element in attainment of the community’s housing goals and objectives. (3) The progress of the city, county, or city and county in implementation of the housing element. (4) The effectiveness of the housing element goals, policies, and related actions to meet th e community’s needs, pursuant to paragraph (7) of subdivision (a) of Section 65583.”
The following table describes the results and evalua tes the effectiveness of 2013–2021 Housing Element programs.

EFFORTS TO ADDRESS SPECIAL HOUSING NEEDS
Government Code Section 65588 requires that local governments review the eff ectiveness of the housing element goals, policies, and related actions to meet the community’s special housing needs. As shown in the Review of Previous Housing Element matrix on page HNA-4, the 2013 Housing Element, the City worked diligently to continuously promote housing for special n eeds groups in a variety of ways by continuing to permit residential care facilities by right in specific zones, allowing for the development of ADUs consistent with state law, providing handouts and other materials on fair housing, and is currently working through the approval process of a 100 percent affordable housing project.

PROGRAM H-1.1: General Plan Land Use Change to
Provide Additional Sites. To ensure there is enough land available for the development of housing affordable to
lower-income households, the City will amend its General Plan Land Use and Zoning maps to redesignate and rezone sites 22, 23, 24, and 25 (see Table HNA-25 in the Housing Needs Assessment), a total of 25.96 acres to the Highest Density Residential (HHDR) land use designation and with R-4 zoning to allow for at least 30 units to the acre by right.

Additionally, to comply with state law, the City has
identified and will re-zone sites to accommodate the City’s housing needs, with at least 50 percent of the 4th cycle unmet need coming from sites that are zoned for
residential uses only. The City had an unaccommodated
need of 538 units and has re-zoned 25.96 acres to HHDR to accommodate 623 units at 20 to 40 dwelling unit per acre.

All sites will accommodate a minimum of 20 units per acre, allow up to 30 units per acre and at least 16 units per site, per state law requirements.

All rezoned sites will permit owner-occupied and rental multi-family developments by right with a minor plot plan to verify development standards (i.e., setbacks) and will not require a conditional use permit, a planned unit
development permit, or any other discretionary review.

In addition, the City is creating a mixed-use overlay zone to apply to 20 sites, totaling 117 acres within the inventory.

HNA-24 Adopted – October 13, 2021

COMMUNITY PROFILE
An accurate assessment of exis ting and future residents’ demographic characteristics and housing needs forms the basis for establishing program priorities and quantified objectives in the Housing Elem ent. This section presents statistical information and analysis of demographic and housing factors that influence housing demand, availability, and cost. The focus of this section is on identifying the need for housing according to income level as well as by special needs groups.

POPULATION CHARACTERISTICS
Housing needs are largely determined by population and employment growth, coupled with various demographic variables. Characteristics such as age, household size, occupation, and income combine to influence the type of housing needed and its affordability.

POPULATION TRENDS
Between 2010 and 2020, Wildomar experienced a population growth of 15.6 percent and Riverside County as a whole grew by 11.5 percent. This shows that Wildomar’s population growth in the last 10 years was slightly higher compared to Riverside County (see Table HNA-1).

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

Adopted – October 13, 2021 HNA-25

AGE CHARACTERISTICS
Although population growth strongly affects total demand for new housing, housing needs are also influenced by age characteristics. Typically, different age groups ha ve distinct lifestyles, family characteristics, incomes, and housing preferences. As people move through each stage of life, their housing needs and preferences also change. Age characteristics are therefore important in planning for the changing housing needs of residents.

Housing needs often differ by age group. For instance, mo st young adults (under 34 ) are single or starting families. Housing needs for younger adults are addre ssed through apartments or first-time homeownership opportunities. Middle-aged residents (34–64) may alread y be homeowners, are usually in the prime earning power of their careers, and thus tend to seek larger homes. Seniors often own a home but, due to limited income or disabilities, may need assistance to remain in their homes.

The age distribution for the City of Wildomar and Rivers ide County is presented in Table HNA-2 .

According to the 2014–2018 American Community Survey (ACS), in the City of Wildomar more than half (59.6 percent) of the population wa s working age, between 20 and 64 yea rs of age, and almost one-third (27.9 percent) of the popula tion was school age or below, between 0 and 19 yea rs of age. The population 65 years and over represen ts the remaining 12.5 pe rcent. When compared to Riverside County, the age distribution is similar, al though Wildomar had a lower percentage of persons b etween the age of 45 to 54 and 65 to 84 and a higher pe rcentage of persons between the age 55 to 64 and 85 and over.

HOUSEHOLD CHARACTERISTICS
Household type and size, income levels, and other household charac teristics determine the type of housing needed by residents. This section details the various hou sehold characteristics affecting housing needs.

HOUSEHOLDS TYPE AND SIZE
A household refers to the people occupying a home, such as a family, a single person, or unrelated persons living together. Family households often prefer sing le-family homes or condominiums to accommodate children, while non-family households generally occupy smaller apartments or condominiums.

Table HNA-4 displays household composition as reported by the 2014-2018 ACS. In the City of Wildomar, families made up 79.4 percent of all households, of which, 33.8 percent have children under 18 years of age.

Riverside County as a whole has a lower percentage of families (72.0 percent) and slightly lower percentage of families with children under 18 years of age (30.3 percent). 164

OVERCROWDING
Overcrowding is often closely related to household income and the cost of housing. The U.S. Census Bureau considers a household to be overcrowded when there is more than one person per room, excluding bathrooms and kitchens, and to be severely overcrowded wh en there are more than 1.5 occupants per room.

Overcrowded households are usually a reflection of the lack of affordable housing.

According to the 2014–2018 ACS and as shown in Table HNA-5, 3.1 percent of Wildomar’s owner-occupied households were overcrowded and 0.6 percent were severe ly overcrowded, as compared to the county as a whole, where 3.2 percent of the hou seholds were overcrowded, and 1.1 percent were severely overcrowded.

In renter-occupied households, 7.2 percent of Wildomar households were overcrowded and 2.2 percent were severely overcrowded, as compared to the county, where 8.6 percent were overcrowded, and 3.3 percent were severely overcrowded.

HOUSEHOLD INCOME
Along with housing prices and rents, household inco me is the most important factor affecting housing opportunities in Wildomar. Housing choices such as tenure (owning versus rent ing), housing type, and location are dependent on household income. On the other hand, household size and type often affect the proportion of income that can be spent on housing.

For the purpose of evaluating housi ng affordability, housing need, an d eligibility for housing assistance, income levels are defined by guidelines adopted each year by HCD. According to HCD’s 2020 State Income Limits, the area median income (AMI) for a family of four in Riverside County in 2020 was $75,300.  Extremely Low Income Up to 30 percent of AMI ($0–$26,200)  Very Low Income 31–50 percent of AMI ($26,201–$37,650)  Low Income 51–80 percent of AMI ($37,651–$60,250)
 Moderate Income 81–120 pe rcent of AMI ($60,251–$90,350)  Above Moderate Income Above 120 percent of AMI ($90,350 or more) Table HNA-6 shows the maximum annual income level for each income group adjusted for household size for Riverside County. The maximum annual income data is then used to calculate the maximum affordable housing payments for different households (varying by in come level) and their eligibility for federal housing assistance.

OVERPAYMENT
State and federal housing law defines overpayment (or cost burdened) as a household paying more than 30 percent of gross income for housing expenses. Severe cost burden occurs when a household pays more than 50 percent of its income on housing. Housing overpa yment is especially problematic for lower-income households that have limited resources for other liv ing expenses and is an important measure of the affordability of housing within a city. Overpayment for housing is based on the total cost of shelter compared to a household’s ability to pay. Specifically, overpaym ent is defined as a household paying more than 30 percent of their gross household income for shelter. According to the U.S. Census, shelter cost is the monthly owner costs (mortgages, deeds of trust, contracts to purchase or similar debts on the property, taxes, and insurance) or the gross rent (contract rent plus the estimated average monthly cost of utilities).

A total of 2,060 owner households (20.7 percent of to tal households) were paying more than 30 percent of their income for housing between 2013 to 2017 (see Table HNA-8). In contrast, 1,660 renter households (16.7 percent of total households) were paying more than 30 percent of their income for housing.

Of all owner-occupied households within Wildomar, 285 (2.9 percent) are considered extremely low-income; for 50 percent of those households, the cost of housing is greater than half of the gross household income.

Out of all renter-occupied households within Wildom ar, 450 (4.5 percent) are considered extremely low income; for 85 percent of those households, the cost of housing is greater than half of their household incomes.

EMPLOYMENT BY INDUSTRY
The economy has an important impact on housing needs. Employment growth typically results in increased housing demand in areas that serve as regional employment centers. Moreover, the type of occupation and income levels for new employment also affect housi ng demand. This section describes the economic and employment patterns in Wildomar and how these patterns influence housing needs. As of 2018, the management economic sector was the largest employer of Wildomar residents, providing 4,920 jobs, or 31 percent of the workforce. The second-largest sector was sales, which employed 3,721 Wildomar residents, or 23 percent, of the workforce. Other large economic s ectors include services (3,610 people, or 23 percent); production (1,956 people, or 12 percent); and natural resources (1,866 people, or 12 percent). Figure HNA- 1 shows the types of industries for residents working in the City of Wildomar in 2018 and the employment percentage per occupation.

HOUSING TENURE
Housing tenure (owner versus renter) can be affected by many factors, such as housing cost (interest rates, economics, land supply, and development constraints), housing type, housing availability, job availability, and consumer preference. Table HNA-10 details housing tenure in Wildomar and Riverside County according to the 2014-2018 ACS. The City of Wildomar has a s lightly higher owner-occupied household percentage (69.4 percent) than that of Riverside County (65.8 percent).

Source: 2014-2018 ACS

VACANCY RATE
Vacancy rates of 5 percent for rental housing and 1.5 percent for ownership housing are generally considered to be healthy. A higher vacancy rate may indicate an excess supply of units and a softer market, and result in lower housing prices. A lower vacancy rate may indica te a shortage of housing and high competition for available housing, which generally leads to higher housing prices and diminished affordability.

Table HNA-11 shows the occupancy status of the housing stock according to the 2014-2018 ACS. The City of Wildomar had a total vacancy rate of 4.5 percent as compared to Riverside County as a whole, which had a vacancy rate of 13.8 percent. As shown in Table HNA-11, the City of Wildomar homeowner vacancy rate was 0.4 percent and the rental vacancy rate was 1.0 percent. For the county as a whole, the homeowner vacancy rate was 1.1 percent, and the rental vacancy rate was 1.7 percent. 171

HOUSING CONDITIONS
Housing conditions are an important indicator of quali ty of life in the City of Wildomar. Like any asset, housing ages and deteriorates over time. If not regularly maintained, structures can deteriorate and discourage reinvestment, depress neighborhood property values, and even become health hazards. Thus, maintaining and improving housing quality is an important goal for communities.

An indication of the quality of the housing stock is its general age. Typically, housing over 30 years old is likely to have rehabilitation needs that may include plumbing, roof repairs, foundation wo rk, and other repairs. Figure HNA-2 displays the age of Wildomar’s housing stock starting from before 1939 up until 2014 and later, per the 2014-2018 ACS.

Among the housing stock, 51.4 percent of the housing unit s in Wildomar were built since 1990. The remaining 48.7 percent of the housing stock is over 30 years old, meanin g rehabilitation needs could be necessary in certain homes.

The City estimates that approximately 10 percent of the housing stock needs rehabilitation. 172

HOUSING COST AND AFFORDABILITY
One of the major barriers to housing availability is th e cost of housing. To provide housing to all economic levels in the community, a wide variet y of housing opportunities at various prices should be made available.

Housing affordability is dependent on income and housing costs.

Housing affordability is based on the relationship between household income and housing expenses.

According to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and HCD, housing is considered “affordable” if the monthly housing cost is no more than 30 percent of a household’s gross income.

Sales Prices
According to Realtor.com, the median sales price for homes in Wildomar as of December 2020 was $477,500 (Table HNA-12). The median sales price in Wildomar is higher than Lake Elsinore and Menifee at $435,000 and $426,000, respectively. However, the median sales pr ice in Wildomar is slightly lower compared to Murrieta ($505,000).

Table HNA-14 provides the affordable rents and maximum purchase price, based on the HCD income limits for Riverside County. As shown in Table HNA-14, the maximum affordable rent is $655 for an extremely low-income four-person household, $941 monthly for a very low-income household, $1,506 for a low-income household, and $2,259 for a moderate- income household. As shown in Table HNA-13, two- and three- bedroom units were renting at median prices of $2,039 to $2,145, respectively, an d therefore are out of the affordability range for extremely low-income, very low-income, and low-income households. The two- and three-bedroom units are within the price rang e for moderate-income households.

SPECIAL NEEDS GROUPS
Certain groups have greater difficul ty in finding acceptable, affordable housing due to special circumstances relating to employment and income, household characteristics, and disabilities, among others. These “special needs” groups include seniors, persons with disabilities, large households, single-parent households (female- headed households with children, in particular), homeless persons, and farmworkers.

SENIORS
Senior residents have many different housing needs, depending on their age, level of income, current tenure status, cultural background, and health status. Seni or households may need assistance with personal and financial affairs, networks of care to provide servi ces and daily assistance, and even possible architectural design features that could accommodate disabilities that would help ensure continued independent living.

According to the 2014-2018 ACS, there were 4,534 seniors or 12.5 percent of the total population (age 65 and over) in the City of Wildomar. Riverside County as a whol e had a slightly higher percentage of seniors with

13.8 percent of persons ages 65 and over.

Of the senior population, 2,366 seniors were householde rs in Wildomar, representing 23.2 percent of all households in the city. Of those senior householders , approximately 76.0 percent were owner-occupied and

24.0 percent were renter-occupied. Riverside County’s breakdown was similar with 79.2 percent and 20.8 percent, respectively.

PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES
Physical, mental, and/or developmental disabilities may prevent a person from working, may restrict one’s mobility, or may make it difficult to care for oneself. Persons with disabilities have special housing needs often related to the limited ability to earn a sufficient income and a lack of accessible and affordable housing. Some residents have disabilities that require living in a supportive or institutional setting.

The American Disabilities Act (ADA) defines an individual with a disability as “as a person who has a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities, a person who has a history or record of such an impairment, or a person who is perceived by others as having such an impairment.” 176

The City of Wildomar has a disabled population of 9, 925 persons, approximately 27.6 percent of the total population, according to the 2014–2018 ACS. Table HNA-15 provides additional characteristics for the disabled population.

To meet the special needs of disabled residents, the City supports the upgrade of existing buildings to conform to ADA requirements. The City has included Program H-5.1 to support development of housing accessible to persons with a disability.

Persons with Developmental Disabilities (Senate Bill 812) Senate Bill (SB) 812 (Ashburn, 2010) requires the City to include in its analysis of “Special Needs Groups” the needs of those with a developmental disability with in the community. According to Section 4512 of the Welfare and Institutions Code, “developmental disabili ty” means a disability that originates before an individual attains 18 years of age, continues, or can be expected to continue, indefinitely, and constitutes a 177

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

HNA-40 Adopted – October 13, 2021

substantial disability for that individual. It includes intellectual disabilities, cerebral palsy, epilepsy, and autism.

This term also includes disabling conditions found to be closely related to intellectual disability or to require treatment similar to that required for individuals with intellectual disabilities but does not include other conditions that are solely physical in nature.

Many developmentally disabled persons can live and work independently within a conventional housing environment. More severely disabled persons requi re a group living environment where supervision is provided. The most severely affected persons may require an institutional environment where medical aid and physical therapy are provided. Because developmental di sabilities exist before adulthood, the first issue in supportive housing for the developmentally disabled is the transition from the person’s living situation as a child to an appropriate level of independence as an adult.

The California Department of Developmental Services (CDDS) currently provides community-based services to approximately 330,000 with developmental disabilities and their families through a statewide system of 21 regional centers, four developmental centers, and two community-based facilities. The Inland Regional Center is one of 21 regional centers in the State of California that provides point of entry to services for people with developmental disabilities. The center is a private, nonprofit community agency that contracts with local businesses to offer a wide range of services to individuals with developmental disabilities and their families.

The information in Table HNA-16 is from the California Department of Developmental Services, charged by the State of California to oversee the coordination and care of people with de velopmental disabilities, provides a closer look at the disabled population by age.

The design of housing-accessibility modifications, the proximity to services and transit, and the availability of group living opportunities represent some of the types of considerations that are important in serving this need group. 178

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

Adopted – October 13, 2021 HNA-41

LARGE HOUSEHOLDS
Large households are defined as households with five or more members. Large households comprise a special needs group because of the need for larger dwelling units, which are often in limited supply and therefore command higher prices. To save for other basic necessities, such as food , clothing, and medical care, it is common for lower-income large households to reside in smaller dwelling units, frequently resulting in overcrowding.

Based on estimates from the 2014-2018 ACS, 19.9 pe rcent (2,012) of Wildomar’s households were large households, including 5.3 percent (537) that had six or more persons and 3.7 percent (376) that had seven or more persons.

As previously mentioned, 2,012 households in Wildomar were occupied by five or more persons. Of those, 1,323 were owner-occupied households and 689 were renter-occupied households.

SINGLE-PARENT HOUSEHOLDS
Single-parent households (which are predominantly female-headed) are one-parent households with children under the age of 18 living at home. For these households, living expenses generally require a larger proportion of income relative to two-parent households. Therefore, finding affordable, decent, and safe housing is often more difficult for single-parent households. Additi onally, single-parent households have special needs involving access to daycare or childcare, healthcare, and other supportive services.

According to the 2014-2018 ACS, 21.7 percent (2,190 households) of households in the city were single- parent households. Of these households, approximately 64.0 percent (1,401 households) were female-headed and the remaining 36.0 percent (789 households) were male-headed.

FARMWORKERS
Farmworkers are generally considered to have special housing needs because of limited income and the unstable nature of employment (i.e., having to move throughout the year from one harvest to the next). The typical temporary nature of farm work is not the case in Wildomar. The only work of this nature is dairy work, which goes on year-round and is not seasonal.

179

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

HNA-42 Adopted – October 13, 2021

Based on the 2014–2018 ACS, it is estimated that th ere are approximately 127 persons employed in the agriculture, forestry, fishing, and hunting industry, representing only 0.8 percent of the total population. The demand for specific farmworker housing is estimated to be very minimal if at all and therefore housing is addressed through the current housing stock and through overall programs for affordability.

When looking at Riverside County as a whole, according to the US Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) 2017 Census of Agriculture, there were 11,365 farm workers in Riverside County. Of those farm workers, the majority (8,469 or 75 percent) were seasonal employees , working less than 150 days per year. The remaining one-quarter of farmworkers (3,714 persons) were permanent employees.

EXTREMELY LOW-INCOME HOUSEHOLDS
In 2020, the median income for a household of four in Riverside County was $75,300. Households that earn 30 percent or less than the county’s median income are considered “extremely low-income”, making $26,200 or less annually for a household of 4.

Households and individuals with extremely low income s may experience the greatest challenges in finding suitable, affordable housing. Extremely low-income households often have a combination of housing challenges related to income, credit status, disability or mobility status, family size, household characteristics, supportive service needs, or a lack of affordable housing opportunities. These households typically include seniors on Social Security, individuals with disabilities, single parents, farmworkers, and low-wage workers.

Some extremely low-income individuals and house holds are homeless. Many extremely low-income households seek rental housing and most likely face overpayment, overcrowding, or substandard housing condition. Some extremely low-income households could have members with mental or other disabilities and special needs.

Approximately 7.4 percent (or 735 households) of households in Wildomar fell into the extremely low-income range, according 2013–2017 Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy [CHAS]). Of those households,

38.8 percent (285 households) were owner occupied households and 61.2 percent (450 households) were renter occupied households. Of the 735 extremely lo w-income households, 85 percent were overpaying (paying more than 30 percent of their income on housi ng costs) for housing and 72.8 percent were severely overpaying (paying more than 50 percent of their income on housing costs).

To address the need for extremely low-income housi ng, the City has included Program 3.1, 10.1, and 11.1.

Additionally, the City permits single-room occupancy un its, in compliance with Government Code Section 65583(c)(1).

HOMELESS
Homeless individuals and families have perhaps the most immediate housing need of any group. They also have one of the most difficult sets of housing needs to meet, due to both the diversity and the complexity of factors that lead to homelessness and to community opposit ion to the siting of facilities that serve homeless clients. California law requires that Housing Elements estimate the need for emergency shelter for homeless people.

The County of Riverside completed a Point-in-Time Homeless Count in January 2020. According to this data, there are approximately six unsheltered persons within the City of Wildomar. The Riverside County Sheriff’s Department and the Social Work Action Group estimated a total of 15 unsheltered persons living in Wildomar and the surrounding areas but did not have an esti mate specific to the City of Wildomar available.

ANALYSIS OF AT-RISK HOUSING
California Housing Element law requires the analysis of government-assisted housing units that are eligible to convert from low-income housing to market-rate housing during the next 10 years due to expiring subsidies, mortgage prepayments, or expiration of affordability restrictions and development of programs aimed at their preservation.

INVENTORY OF AFFORDABLE UNITS
An inventory of assisted units in the City of Wildomar was compiled based on information gathered from the California Housing Pa rtnership Corporation ( Table HNA-18). According to the California Housing Partnership Corporation, there is one assisted property in Wildomar. This property is not at risk of opting out of programs that keep them affordable to very lo w- and low-income households over the Housing Element period (2021-2029).

Efforts by the City to retain low-income housing must be able to draw upon two basic types of preservation resources: organizational and financial. Qualified nonprofit entities need to be made aware of the future possibilities of units becoming at risk. Should a proper ty become at risk, the City maintains an active list of resources by which to preserve that property.

In addition, the City of Wildomar will develop procedures for monitoring and preserving at-risk units, which will include the following:
 Monitor the Risk Assessment report publis hed by the California Housing Partnership Corporation.
 Maintain regular contact with the local HUD office regarding early warnings of possible opt-outs. 182

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

Adopted – October 13, 2021 HNA-45

 Maintain contact with the owners and managers of existing affordable housing to determine if there are plans to opt out in the future and offer assistance in locating eligible buyers.  Develop and maintain a list of potential purcha sers of at-risk units and act as a liaison between owners and eligible purchasers.
 Ensure that all owners and managers of affordable housing are provided with applicable state and federal laws regarding notice to tenants of the owner’s desire to opt out or prepay. State law requires a 12-month notice.

Nonprofit Entities
Nonprofit entities serving Riverside County, including Wildomar, can be contacted to gauge their interest and ability in acquiring and/or managing units at risk of conversion. A partial listing of entities with resources in the Riverside County area includes:
 Alternatives for Domestic Violence
 Shelter from the Storm
 Nexus for Affordable Housing
 Catholic Charities
 Coachella Valley Housing Coalition
 Fair Housing Council of Riverside County
 Family Service Association of Riverside County
 Habitat for Humanity
 Lutheran Social Services

ASSESSMENT OF FAIR HOUSING
Assembly Bill (AB) 686 requires that all housing elemen ts due on or after January 1, 2021, must contain an Assessment of Fair Housing (AFH) consistent with the co re elements of the analysis required by the federal Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) Final Rule of July 16, 2015.

Under state law, AFFH means “taking meaningful acti ons, in addition to combating discrimination, that overcome patterns of segregation and foster inclusive communities free from barriers that restrict access to opportunity based on protected characteristics.”
In order to comply with AB 686, the City has completed the following outreach and analysis.

OUTREACH
As discussed in the Public Participation section of the Housing Element, the City held a Planning Commission Study Session and invited the public to attend and participate. This study session was held in addition to the standard public hearing process and conducted indivi dual consultations with stakeholders. A flyer with information about the workshop was sent to local service providers, affordable housing developers, and legal aid providers in an effort to reach lower-income reside nts and special needs groups. At this public outreach presentation, the Planning Commission discussed the need to address affordable housing issues in general.

No community members elected to participate; however, th e event was held virtually and is available on the City’s website, so residents have ongoing access to this information. The City has included Program H-17.1 to conduct ongoing outreach to engage members of all socio-economic groups and recruit members of underrepresented groups to participate in Planni ng Commission, City Council, and committees as they are formed. Members of the community were also encouraged to share input to ask questions before and after the workshop by emailing the Planning Director.

The City also conducted one-on-one consultation meeti ngs with housing advocates, housing and service providers, and community organizations who serve the ge neral public and special needs groups. As with the workshop, the purpose of these consultations was to solicit direct feedback on housing needs, barriers to fair and affordable housing, and opportunities for developm ent from all community groups, not just those who are able to attend the study session and public hearings. The primary concerns that stakeholders raised related to fair housing included:
 Limited availability of appropriately zoned land to accommodate high-density affordable housing that limits mobility options for lower income households;

 Lack of a varied housing supply that can result in occupants living in inaccessible housing for their needs or overcrowded situations;
 Discriminatory practices by landlords against low-income persons and persons with disabilities; and  Community opposition to affordable, high-density housing in the City.

The issues raised by stakeholders identified barrier s to fair housing in the form of housing mobility opportunities and exclusionary behaviors that may result in displacement. In order to address these, the City has included Programs H-1.1 and H-1.2 to ensure there is a supply of high-density land available and Program H-17.1 to address discriminatory practices and community position on high-density housing. The collection process for this qualitative data is described in greater detail in the Public Participation section of this Housing Element.

The primary fair housing issues identified by the Fair Housing Council of Riverside County (FHCRC) were refusal by landlords to grant reasonable accommodati on requests and poor housing conditions, specifically pest infestations and mold that can create health problems for occupants. In both instances, FHCRC noted that these issues, and others, present barriers to safe and equal housing opportunities, particularly for lower- income households that may have more limited housing options. The City will provide biannual training for landlords on their responsibilities to their tenants and fair housing laws (Program H-17.1) and will develop a code enforcement program to ensure owners are addressing building and maintenance issues without displacing occupants, or with relocation assistance ( Program H-15.1). Additional data collected from the FHCRC on local and regional fair housing issues is de scribed in the Enforcement and Outreach Capacity section of this assessment.

The local data and knowledge gathered during these consultations was used to inform this assessment of fair housing issues, reveal barriers to fair housing, and identify factors that contribute to these issues ( Table HNA-19). In an effort to gather ongoing local input and data and encourage all residents to participate in planning processes, the City has included Program H-17.1 to meet annually with fair housing providers to discuss local fair housing issues and concerns, offer tr anslation services to improve accessibility for all residents, conduct targeted outreach to underrepresented groups, and meet with service providers for special needs and underrepresented groups.

ASSESSMENT OF FAIR HOUSING ISSUES
The California Government Code Section 65583 (10)(A)(ii) requires the City of Wildomar to analyze areas of segregation, racially or ethnically concentrated areas of poverty, disp arities in access to opportunity, and disproportionate housing needs, including displacem ent risk. Since 2017, the California Tax Allocation Committee (TCAC) and HCD have developed annual maps of access to resources such as high-paying job opportunities, proficient schools, safe and clean ne ighborhoods, and other healthy economic, social, and environmental indicators to provide evidence-based re search for policy recommendations. This effort has been dubbed “opportunity mapping” and is available to all jurisdictions to assess access to opportunities within their community. According to the HCD/TCAC 2020 Opportunity Areas Map, the City of Wildomar is split between high/highest resource areas south of Wildomar Trail and moderate resource in most areas to the north of Wildomar Trail, except for high resource areas south of Palomar Street (Figure HNA-3). While there are no low resource areas or areas of high segr egation and poverty in the City of Wildomar, all areas west of the City in Lake El sinore are considered low resource. Althou gh the City does not plan for housing for these areas, it is likely that many of these resident s rely on Wildomar for services and it is possible that people that work in Wildomar live in these areas. As such, the City has taken a broader view than just the city limits when assessing fair housing issues.

Some of the indicators identified by TCAC and HCD to determine the access to opportunity include high levels of employment and close proximity to jobs, access to effective educational opportunities for both children and adults, low concentration of poverty, and low levels of environmental pollutants, among others.

These indicator scores decrease as the level of desi gnation decreases until “Low Resource” areas, which typically have limited access to education and employ ment opportunities and may have poor environmental quality. The trends and factors that have resulted in these patterns of access to resources, and other fair housing issues, may have stemmed from historical patterns or from current practices.

Patterns of Integration and Segregation
Diversity
As shown in Figure HNA-4, in 2018 the City of Wildomar had a similar diversity index score to much of the surrounding areas. However, while the majority of reside nts in communities north of Wildomar identify as Hispanic, Wildomar is predominantly White and non-Hispanic, as described in the Community Profile of the Housing Element. In the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) region, northern areas in Los Angeles and San Bernardino Counties have a higher percentage of residents that identify as Hispanic than White. This trend differs from more southern areas of the SCAG region, including Wildomar. Wildomar more closely reflects the patterns of diversity found in urba n areas of Riverside County, where the diversity index is consistent across communities, indicating that there are not concentrated areas of more or less diversity. 186

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

Adopted – October 13, 2021 HNA-49

While 68.1 percent of Wildomar residents identify as White, there do not appear to be any areas with significantly higher or lower levels of diversity than any other within the city or immediately adjacent areas (Figure HNA-4), suggesting that the community is well integrated in this regard. This trend is an increase in the distribution of diversity scores across the city since even 2010, when the diversity index scores were slightly lower in the southeastern portion of the city.

Income and Race
A racially or ethnically concentrated area of poverty (R/ECAPs) is an area in which 50 percent or more of the population identifies as non-White and 40 percent or more of residents are living in poverty. In the SCAG region, there are several R/ECAPs located in major ci ties and unincorporated ar eas. However, there are no R/ECAPs located in the City of Wildomar. The nearest R/ECAP is the community of Meadowbrook located northeast of Wildomar. While there are no R/ECAPs in Wildomar, there is a higher percent of the population living below the poverty line along the northwestern city lim it adjacent to the City of Lake Elsinore. Across Lake Elsinore, there is a significantly higher rate of poverty than anywhere in Wildomar (Figure HNA-5). As shown in Figure HNA-5, there is a slightly higher rate of poverty southwest of I-15 in Wildomar than to the north of the freeway, which corresponds with a higher concentration of Housing Choice Voucher recipients living between Palomar Street, Central Avenue, Clinton Keith Road, and I-15. In this area, 5 to 15 percent of housing units are occupied by voucher holders, while there are no notable concentr ations east of I-15.

Beginning January 1, 2020, under California Governme nt Code Section 12927(i), landlords must accept Housing Choice Vouchers as an acceptable source of in come for tenants. Therefor e, the concentration of voucher recipients may be due to th e availability of housing that is a ffordable with a voucher, meets the condition requirements of the voucher, or that landlords in other areas of the city are unaware of the requirement to accept vouchers. While 12.4 percent of the population in Wildomar has an income at or below the poverty line, this is a decrease from 15 percent in 20 15. Despite this slight decline, the City has included Program H-17.1 to provide regular training to landlords on requirements under fair housing law and Programs H-3.2, H-4.1, and H-7.1 to expand the supply of affordable housing so there are more options for lower-income households throughout the city.

In contrast to a R/ECAP, a racially concentrated area of affluence (RCAA) is defined as a census tract in which 80 percent or more of the population is White and has a median income greater than $125,000 annually.

While there is a higher median income in the southern portion of the City, south of Clinton Keith Road, these areas do not correspond with a White population that is 80 percent or more of the population in that area.

Therefore, there are no areas of W ildomar that qualify as a RCAA. Most RCAAs in the SCAG region are located in coastal communities while inland suburban communities do not reflect this pattern.

Persons with Disabilities

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

HNA-50 Adopted – October 13, 2021

As discussed in the Community Profile section of the Housing Element, approximately 27.6 percent of Wildomar’s population in 2018 had at least one disability, and 40.2 percent of those individuals were seniors, who are more likely to have an ambulatory, visual, or hearing disability. Since 2014, the percent of the population with a disability has increased slightly across the City, but still reflects the SCAG region and the rate of disability is even across the Ci ty. The rate of disability in Wildomar is similar to all incorporated jurisdictions in Riverside County and most suburban co mmunities in the SCAG region. Disability rates are higher further inland in the region, indicating that the City of Wildomar does not have a disproportionate concentration of persons with disabilities when compar ed to the region or a smaller percentage of persons with disabilities that would indicate barriers to this population. In Wildomar, the senior population has increased since 2012, from 9.8 percent of the population to 12.5 percent in 2018, which may account for a large portion of the increase in the percentage of the population with a disability during this time period, from

10.4 percent in 2012 to 13.9 percent in 2018. The Ci ty will explore amending the Wildomar Municipal Code to allow residential care facilities for seven or more persons in all residential zones to ensure that residents are able to age in place with acce ss to the resources they need ( Program H-11.2) and will work with disability service providers to identify whether there is unmet demand for services in any area of the city (Program H-

17.1).

Familial Status
Wildomar has historically been highly family-oriented, a pattern that exists today, and will in the future. As shown in Figure HNA-6, Wildomar and the surrounding areas are dominated by married-couple families and families with children. Given the low vacancy rate for both ownership units (0.4 percent) and rental units (1.0 percent) in 2018, this may suggest that there is a shortage of homes to meet the needs of existing family types in Wildomar. While many communities across the SCAG region are predominantly made up of married- couple families, like Wildomar, the percentage of ho useholds with children decreases in more rural and unincorporated areas, especially in the eastern portion of the region. The City will work with developers to promote and incentivize the development of a variety of housing types to meet the needs of all current and future residents (Programs H-4.1).

Other Relevant Factors
While not incorporated until 2008, development in the Wildomar area began in the 1880s with the introduction of train service to present day Lake Elsi nore. In 1885, the first map of the Wildomar townsite was made by its founders and formal development began thereafter with the construction of a school, federal buildings, and a town center. The townsite was originally platted for large-lot, single-family construction, which was standard for the time but supported a lower-density downtown that persists today. While Wildomar’s growth originated with the construction of the Southern Pacific Railroad through the townsite, heavy rains in 1884 washed out the tracks which were never replaced. The following century of slow growth 188

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

Adopted – October 13, 2021 HNA-51

therefore, was not largely influenced by the presence of the railroad beyond a concentration of retail and commercial at the original center of town where which, in some jurisdictions, can result in significantly different land use patterns and segregation.

With the opening of the Temecula Valley Freeway (In terstate [I-] 15) in 1985, Wildomar’s community was revitalized, and growth began again. Due to its hist oric foundation as a railroad community, Wildomar’s services are generally located along the in the origin al center of town where the railroad once was and have since stretched along the length of the I-15 corridor. Interstate 15 bisects the City in a north-south direction.

Areas west of I-15 are typically smaller, older homes, indi cative of the older nature of this part of the city, which tend to be more affordable than larger, newer hom es east of I-15. West of I-15, poverty rates tend to be higher, ranging from approximately 6.5 percent to 13.4 percent, while east of I-15 rates range from 4.2 to

10.0 percent. While these do not differ significantly, the presence of smaller, more affordable homes may be more accessible for lower-income households, resulting in a slightly higher rate of poverty. In order to address the disproportionate concentration of lower-income house holds, the City will employ several strategies to encourage the construction of affordable housing in high opportunity areas and throughout the city to facilitate housing mobility (Programs H-3.2, H-4.1, H-7.1, and H-9.1).

The hillside arching through the eastern portion of the City present another barrier in Wildomar. The topography creates a barrier between the residential and commercial areas to the south of the mountains and the residential area to the north. Additionally, due to steeper topography adjacent to the hillside, development is more limited with regards to high density housing construction. Its historical ties to the railroad community and geographic location have resulted in the distribution of density Wildomar has today, with higher-density residential uses concentrated on the northern and southe rn areas of the City and lower-density uses in the historic areas. However, poverty rates, racial and ethni c concentrations, and other potential indicators of segregation do not exist between areas north and so uth of the topographic barri er. Housing north of the mountains reflect the development patterns south of the mountains, east of I-15 , with larger homes in suburban development. Additionally, despite topographi c factors and transportation routes that have influenced how the City of Wildomar has grown in the la st 40 years, public investment in infrastructure has remained balanced throughout the city. There is no history of disproportionate investment in certain areas of the city, or lack of investment in others. Therefor e, there are no patterns of disproportionate access to opportunity as a result of public investment.

Zoning in Wildomar was, until 2008 upon incorporation, established as part of the greater Riverside County governmental agency. The area that is present day Wildomar was part of the urbanized western Riverside County, as opposed to the more agricultural eastern Riverside County. This distinction is part of what drove targeting commercial zoning and higher density and mixed use zoning in the town center of Wildomar, along 189

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

HNA-52 Adopted – October 13, 2021

the interstate and other major transit routes. The Cou nty established Mixed Use Planning Areas which still exist today, emphasizing a shift toward denser, more integrated residential and commercial development.

When the City of Wildomar incorporated, it inherited both the current and historic growth patterns that had resulted from being part of unincorporated Riverside County. Riverside County has no history of exclusionary zoning practices or land use policies that influenced the development of present-day Wildomar. Growth was dependent on access to transit and resources and resulted in a denser city core and more suburban exteriors that were not explicitly exclusionary.

In the last decade, population growth has primarily occu rred east of I-15, in newer areas of the city with available land. West of I-15 between Almond Street an d Wildomar Trail, and west of Palomar Street, the population decreased slightly. The concentration of population growth is not surprising considering that most areas west of I-15 are built out, however the declining population in some neighborhoods west of I-15 may be a symptom of residents being dr awn to other neighborhoods of Wildomar or elsewhere. To ensure that residents have access to a variety of affordable housing types to remain in their neighborhood if they choose to, the City will pursue funding to assist homeowners with securing rehabilitation funding (Program H-14.1), allow ADU’s in all residential zones (Program H-9.1), and will develop a program to connect lower-income residents with affordable housing opportunities. (Programs H-4.1 and H-17.1) Educational attainment may also in dicate discrepancies in access to educational opportunities, or varying needs for types of employment based on education levels. In 2019, approximately 81.6 percent of Wildomar residents had earned a high school diploma while appr oximately 11.5 percent had a bachelor’s degree or higher. There are no neighborhoods in th e City that have notably lower rate s of attainment of a bachelor’s degree or higher; however, west of Palomar Street and west of Lost Road have high school educational attainment rates of 64.4 percent and 69.9 percent, respectively. However, despite areas with lower educational attainment levels, these areas do not have lower median incomes or other indicators of fair housing issues beyond what is discussed throughout this assessment of fair housing. Educational attainment may still be a cause of fair housing issues; therefore, the City will promote the availability of the County’s CalWorks program to assist lower-income households to enter or re-en ter the workforce and will work with the school district and developers to ensure all neighborhoods have equal access to strong educational opportunities (Program H-17.1).

Access to Opportunity
Educational Opportunities
There are several schools located in Wildomar, includ ing Wildomar Elementary School, Donald Graham Elementary School, David Brown Middle School, an d Elsinore High School, among others. Of the 190

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

Adopted – October 13, 2021 HNA-53

approximately 11 schools located within city limits, 8 are located west of I-15. Due to geographical constraints, there are limited areas of development east of I-15 and, therefore, less need for schools in this area. However, there are no schools located in the developed northeast corner of Wildomar, reducing access to schools for residents of this area. As shown in Figure HNA-7, a more positive educational outcome is expected for students in the southern portion of the city, where there is greater access to resources, including schools. The access to strong educational opportunities decreases in the northern portion of the city, though remains higher than areas west of Wildomar. There is a significant discrepancy in expected educational outcome for residents between these two areas of the city, suggesting that there is more limited access to high-quality schools in the northwestern areas of the city due to the quality of sc hools or proximity to them. The City will work with school districts and developers to ensure residential de velopment in the northern portion of the city can be accommodated by existing school capacity or will assist with identifying a site for a new school, if needed (Program H-17.1 ). Despite the differences in expected ed ucational outcome between the northern and southern reaches of the city, Wildomar as a whole has a more positive educational outcome expected than many areas in the SCAG region and Riverside County. Wildomar reflects the educational scores in the nearby cities of Murrieta, Temecula, and Rancho Santa Margarita, and has a significantly higher score than the cities of Lake Elsinore, Perris, and Hemet. In the SCAG region, suburban communities tend to have higher educational scores than urban and rural, which reflects the score in Wildomar as a suburban city.

Employment Opportunities
According to HUD’s 2017 analysis of proximity to jobs, Wildomar, and most of western Riverside County, are located far from employment opportunities ( Figure HNA-8). However, the mean commute times of residents, as reported by ACS, suggest that residents of Wildomar are located within a similar distance to jobs as residents of Temecula, which HUD identified as a job center. The mean commute time for residents of Wildomar was 37.4 minutes in 2019, which has not changed since 2010. This was only slightly higher than that for residents of the cities of Temecula (36.1 minutes) and Murrieta (35.7 minutes), and lower than other surrounding communities, including the cities of Lake Elsinore (45.5 minutes), Menifee (42.9 minutes), and Perris (37.7 minutes). In addition to having a stable commute time that is similar to surrounding communities, the unemployment rate in Wildomar is similar to, or lower than, all of these jurisdictions, as well as the County as a whole, according to the California Employme nt Development Department. Before the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a national spike in unemployment, the unemployment rate in the City of Wildomar in 2020 was 3.9 percent, lower than the Riverside County rate of 4.2 percent. In December 2020, that rate had increased to 8.3 percent in the city, but remained lower than Riverside County rate of 9.1 percent. Therefore, given this data, the supply of jobs for Wildomar re sidents appears to meet demand and does not differ significantly from the region.

Mobility
Wildomar residents are served by Riverside Transit Agency (RTA) routes 8 and 23. Route 8 operates on a loop between Lake Elsinore and Wildom ar and Route 23 runs from Wildom ar to Temecula, with a stop in Murrieta. Both routes operate seven days per week, approximately 12 hours per day, but have 60- to 75-minute headways. There are very limited fixed-route transit opt ions within the City of Wildomar, with no transit available to residents in the northeast portion of the city. All Transit is a data tool that measures access to transit, connectivity, and service availability. Accordin g to All Transit, the City of Wildomar has a transit performance score of 1.9, compared to 3.3 for Rivers ide County and 5.5 for the SCAG region as a whole.

Given the limited routes and frequency of public transit in Wildomar, the City will work with RTA to assess unmet transit needs and expand routes and frequency as needed (Program H-17.1).

Housing for Persons with Disabilities
To meet the needs of the population with disabilities in Wildomar, there is one licensed adult residential care facility and 10 licensed residential care facilities for the elderly. Additionally, residents are served by Dial-A- Ride, an advanced reservation, origin-to-destinatio n transportation option offered by RTA for seniors and persons with disabilities at locations within three-quar ters of a mile of an RTA fixed route. The City also requires new developments to comply with Title 24 of the 2019 California Building Code to ensure that all new construction meets accessible design standards, thus ensuring that al l new housing is accessible for all residents regardless of disability. Additionally, the City ensures that older housing that may not meet the same accessibility requirements can be adapted as needed through their reasonable accommodation process, discussed in the Governmental Constraints section of this Housing Element, and by seeking funding to assist with rehabilitations (Program H-17.1).

Environmental Health
In February 2021, the California Office for Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (COEHHA) released the fourth version of CalEnviroScreen, a tool that uses environmental, health, and socioeconomic indicators to map and compare community’s environmental scores. A community with a in the 75th percentile or above, is one with higher levels of pollution and other nega tive environmental indicators and is considered a disadvantaged community. There are no disadvantaged communities in the City of Wildomar. North of Lemon Street and west of Lost Road is in the highest percentile in the city (53 rd percentile). Outside of that area, east of I-15 scores between the 29 th and 37 th percentile; west of I-15 scores between the 33 rd and 46 th percentile. While environmental conditions in Wildomar are similar to or lower than surrounding jurisdictions, and significantly lower than many dense urban area s in the SCAG region, there is a slight between neighborhoods on either side of the interstate within the City, despite not having any areas with considerably poor environmental conditions. In the SCAG region, many cities and communities in urban areas have poorer 192

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

Adopted – October 13, 2021 HNA-55

environmental conditions than are found in Wildomar while smaller communities are similar to Wildomar.

To ensure residents across the City, regardless of location, have access to positive environmental conditions, the City will review open space requirements for new developments and will revise as necessary to ensure all residents have access to healthy outdoor spaces (Program H-17.1).

Disproportionate Housing Need and Displacement Risk
Overcrowding and Overpayment
As discussed in the Community Profile of the Housing El ement, overcrowding is an issue in the City of Wildomar, especially among renter households. While there are no areas with a higher concentration of overcrowded households, 9.4 percent of renter households live in overcrowded situations, compared to 3.7 percent of owner households. Both rates are lower than overcrowding Riverside County overall (11.9 percent of renters, 4.3 percent of owners). Overcrowding typic ally means that either appropriately sized housing is unaffordable to current residents, or that the type of housing available does not meet the need resulting in an increased risk of displacement for households living in overcrowded situations. In either case, overcrowding means there is a disproportionate need for affordable, larger housing units in Wildomar. The City will meet with the developers to identify barri ers to constructing larger housing ( Program H-17.1) and has included several other programs to incentivize development of affordable housing.

As with overcrowding, overpayment is a widespread issue in Wildomar, with 37.4 percent of households overpaying for housing. However, the issue is even more prominent among renter households than owner households, with approximately 53.7 percent of renters overpaying for housing. Figures HNA-9 and HNA- 10 demonstrate how persistent the issue is across Wildomar. This reflects patterns of overpayment across the SCAG region, where overpayment has remained an i ssue among renters in recen t years while decreasing among homeowners. In Wildomar, the percent of the popu lation overpaying for housing is relatively similar between owners and renters in the eastern portion of the City but is significantly higher among renters in the western portion. This may suggest that in the more urbanized western portion of the City, with closer access to resources, either there are fewer affordable rental options for the share of the population that lives here or that the cost of housing is higher overall. While low- density land use designations are more pervasive in the western portion of the City, there ar e also higher-density areas surrounding commercial uses and major thoroughfares, so the availability of land for higher-density housing is similar between the eastern and western areas of the City. Overpayment increases the risk of displacing residents who are no longer able to afford their housing costs. To address displacement risks due to overpayment, the City will provide incentives to encourage affordable development and will develop a targeted program to connect lower-income residents with affordable homeownership and rental opportunities within the City (Programs H-4.1 and H-17.1). 193

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

HNA-56 Adopted – October 13, 2021

Housing Condition
In addition to extensive overpayment, just less than half of the housing stock in Wildomar is older than 30 years and may need repairs. While it is likely that some homeowners have conducted ongoing maintenance to maintain the value of their homes, it is likely that many of these homes need some degree of repairs. In some cases, the cost of repairs can be pr ohibitive, resulting in the owner or renter living in substandard housing conditions or being displaced if the house is designated as uninhabitable or during rehabilitation. According to Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy ( CHAS) data compiled by the U.S. Census Bureau, approximately 22 percent of Wildomar households whic h may include overcrowding , lack of a complete kitchen, lack of complete plumbing, or severe cost-burden. As identified above, many homeowners and renters in Wildomar are cost burden, and may represen t a large percentage of the 22 percent of households with a severe housing problem identified in CHAS. Th e rate of housing programs for these four categories combined is lower than most jurisdictions in western Riverside with the exception of the cities of Murrieta and Temecula. Wildomar also has a lower rate of housi ng programs than most jurisdictions in the SCAG region, indicating that substandard housing may be a larger issue in other communities. However, to prevent residents occupying, or being displaced from, substa ndard housing, the City will seek funding to assist homeowners with rehabilitation costs and will devel op a code enforcement process that will prevent displacement or assist with relocation costs for lower-income households (Programs H-14.1 and H-15.1).

Homelessness
As discussed in the Special Needs Group section of the Housing Needs Assessment, there are approximately 15 unsheltered homeless persons living in the City of Wildomar and the surrounding area, according to the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department and the So cial Work Action Group. Compared to the region, Wildomar has a smaller percentage of its population that is homeless than most Riverside County cities. The 2020 point-in-time survey estimates that less than the homeless population in Wildomar makes up less than 1 percent of the total unsheltered popula tion of District 1 in Riverside County, compared to the City of Lake Elsinore which makes up 4 percent of the homeless population in District 1. Persons experiencing homelessness, or at risk of becomi ng homeless, are typically extremely low-income and are displaced from housing due to inability to pay or other issues. While there are several shelters and homeless resources available to homeless residents of Wildomar (Table HNA-17), there are limited services available inside city limits. In order to facilitate the construction of emergency shelters, the City has included Program H-13.1 to allow low- barrier navigation centers in all zones that allow mixe d-use and non-residential zones that allow multifamily uses as well as permit emergency shelters in the I-P zone. The City also encourages development of housing for extremely low-income housing through outreach to developers, financial and technical assistance, expedited processing, and other incentives identified in Program H-11.1.

194

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

Displacement Risk
The annual rate of increase in average home value or rental prices compared with annual changes in the average income in the City also indicates an increase d risk of displacement due to housing costs outpacing wage increase, a trend that is felt throughout the regi on, state, and nation. According to Zillow, the average home value in Wildomar has increased 13.4 percent annually since 2011, increasing from $221,000 which was affordable to a household earning approximately $35,500 annually to $546,000 in June 2021, a price that is affordable to a household earning approximately $87,500. The rate of increase in rental prices still outpaces wage increases but is less than that of home values. Between July 2018 and July 2021, the average rent in Wildomar increased 5.3 percent annually, from prices affordable to households earning $75,500 to those earning $88,800 or more. While housing costs have increased rapidly, wages have not kept pace. The average income in Wildomar has increased approximately 2 percent annually, from $76,357 in 2010 to $91,355 in 2019 according to the American Community Survey. The difference in these trends indicates growing unaffordability of housing in Wildomar, as is the case throughout the region and state. In order to address affordability challenges, the City will encourage and incen tivize development of affordable housing units, particularly in high opportunity areas and will deve lop a program to connect lower-income residents with affordable housing opportunities (see Table HNA-19).

Displacement risk increases when a household is paying more for housing than their income can support, their housing condition is unstable or unsafe, and when the household is overcrowded. Each of these presents barriers to stable housing for the occupants. In Wildomar, overpayment is typically, but not always, linked to areas with a lower median income. As discussed unde r Patterns of Integration and Segregation, there are higher rates of poverty in the northern portion of the City (see Figure HNA-5). As shown in Figures HNA-9 and HNA-10, the rate of overpayment among homeowners is slightly higher in this area of the city as well, while overpayment of renters is relatively constant across all populated areas of the city. As a result, displacement risk due to overpayment for low-income renter households is not significantly higher in any one area of the city but may be slightly higher for low-income homeowners in the northern portion of the city.

The City has included Programs H-4.1 and H-17.1 to connect lower-income households with affordable housing opportunities, and will promote the availability of this program in the neighborhood with an increased risk of displacement due to a concentration of lower-income homeowners overpaying for housing.

Enforcement and Outreach Capacity
The City enforces fair housing and complies with fair housing laws and regulation through a twofold process:
review of City policies and code for compliance with St ate law and referring fair housing complaints to appropriate agencies.
195

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

HNA-58 Adopted – October 13, 2021

At the time of this Housing Elem ent update, the City is conducting a comprehensive review of the City’s zoning laws and policies for compliance with fair housi ng law and anticipates completing this review and update during the 2021 calendar year. In addition to assessing fair housing issues related to development standards, fair housing issues can include disproportionate loan rates by race, housing design that is a barrier to individuals with a disability, discrimination against ra ce, national origin, familial st atus, disability, religion, or sex when renting or selling a housing unit, and more. To address issues not related to development standards, all discrimination and fair housing inquiri es or complaints are handled by the City Planning Director, who works directly with the complainant to re fer cases to the Fair Housing Council of Riverside County. While no cases have been received through this process to date, the City will continue to promote the availability of this referral service and other fair housing information on the City’s website (Program H-

17.1).

The Fair Housing Council of Riverside County (FHCRC) provides services to residents of Riverside County and its incorporated cities to promote fair housing and protect the housing rights of all individuals. In December 2020, FHCRC reported that they receive an av erage of 60 to 90 calls per day from residents throughout the County regarding discrimination compla ints and housing disputes. Where possible, FHCRC provides mediation services before submitting comp laints to HUD. The most common type of complaint throughout Riverside County comes from people with disabilities requesting reasonable accommodations; however, since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, F HCRC has seen an increase in complaints regarding discrimination and sexual harassment. The most common type of complaints received by FHCRC regarding the physical condition of homes are infestation of in sects and cases of mold. FHCRC confirmed that these issues are not isolated to Wildomar and are experienced by residents across their service area. While they do not track the origin of complaints to Wildomar, FHCRC reported in their quarterly reports that they received a total of 1,549 complaints between January and Se ptember 2020 from resident s of West County, which includes Wildomar. The data received from FHCRC supports many of the findings of this assessment of fair housing regarding housing condition and accessible housing near services for special needs groups. The local and regional context of the information provided to the City was used to inform fair housing issues while the contributing factors were identified through the more local lens of this assessment. FHCRC’s feedback is reflected in the issues and factors identified in Table HNA-19.

In their 2019 Annual Report, the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH) reported that they received 36 housing complaints from resident s of Riverside County, approximately 3.8 percent of the total number of cases in the state that year (934). As part of the Fair Housing Assistance Program (FHAP), DFEH dual-files fair housing cases with HUD’s Region IX Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity (FHEO); HUD FHEO reported that just four cases were filed by residents of the City of Wildomar between January 1, 2013, and February 8, 2021. Of these four cases, one resulted in a no-cause determination and three 196

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

Adopted – October 13, 2021 HNA-59

were closed through conciliation or settlement. One ca se alleged discrimination based on sex, two alleged discriminations based on race, and two alleged disability based on disability. The total alleged bases is higher than the number of cases due to one alleging two bases. In addition to these cases, five inquiries of unknown bases were sent to HUD to determine whether a case wo uld be valid. In reviewing these cases, one inquirer failed to respond to HUD’s follow-up, three resulted in a finding that there was no valid issue or basis, and one was not pursued for undisclosed reasons.

FHCRC and DFEH were not able to provide specific lo cation information for cases either because they do not track the geographic origin of co mplaints or due to confidentiali ty concerns. Therefore, the City was unable to conduct a spatial analysis of fair housing case s to identify any patterns or concentrations of fair housing issues in the city. Program H-17.1 has been included to work with fair housing enforcement organizations and agencies to track issues and identify patterns in the city.

SITES INVENTORY ANALYSIS
The City examined the opportunity area map prepared by HCD and TCAC ( Figure HNA-3 ). The opportunity area map identifies areas in every region of the state whose characteristics have been shown by research to support positive economic, educational, and health outcomes for low-income families— particularly long-term outcomes for children.

Using the statewide opportunity area map and indicators of segregation, displacement risk, and access to opportunity as overlays to the City’s sites inventory, the City was able to identify if the sites identified in the inventory to accommodate the lower-income
Regional Housing Need Allocation ( RHNA) affirmatively
further fair housing and combat any existing identified patterns. The sites identified to meet the lower-income RHNA are distributed across the city and are located primarily in areas of high or highest resource. The largest concentration of sites is located near the southeast boundary of the city where land uses are varied, and the mix of residential densities permitted promotes a variety of housing to meet all income needs. Sites, 2, 5, 6, 8, 10, and 13 identified to meet the lower-income RHNA are in this area, where the median income is approximately $135,000 and the neighborhood is designa ted as a highest resource area. The integration of affordable housing into this neighborhood will prom ote mixed-income communities and will facilitate housing mobility and improve access to opportunity for lower-income households. There are no sites identified to meet the lower-income RHNA located in the area with a concentr ation of HCV holders, thus promoting integration of affordable housing wi th market-rate, and no lower-income sites are disproportionately concentrated in areas with overpa yment, overcrowding, or known substandard housing conditions. The distribution of these sites in primarily high and highest resource areas, both north and south 197

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

HNA-60 Adopted – October 13, 2021

of I-15, will affirmatively further fair housing by promoting mobility opportunities and encouraging affordable housing in high opportunity areas.

The remainder of the sites, identified to meet the moderate- and above moderate-income RHNA, are located throughout the city, as shown in figures HNA-12 through HNA-15. As with the lower-income sites, no moderate- or above moderate-income sites are located in areas with disproportionate rates of overpayment compared to the city or region or overcrowding. These sites are located in moderate, high, and highest resource areas along with the lower-income sites, thus a ffirmatively furthering fair housing through income integration and encouraging a variety of housing in all resource areas to stimulate investment through the development process. The City does not have any area s of high segregation and poverty, therefore no sites will be concentrated in an area such as this. The sites in Tables HNA-23 and HNA-24 will provide access to services, employment, and educational and recrea tional opportunities for future residents and are a mechanism of affirmatively furthering fair housing by promoting mixed-income neighborhoods, facilitating mobility to high opportunity areas, and reducing displacement risk for both tenants and homeowners.

CONTRIBUTING FACTORS
Through discussions with stakeholders, fair housing advocates, and the assessment of fair housing issues, the City identified several factors that contribute to fair housing issues in Wildomar, as shown in Table HNA-

The City has identified the shortage of larger housing units and mobility opportunities to access services, in addition to access to affordable housing in general, as the primary contributing factors to fair housing in Wildomar. The City has included actions to address these factors, as well as the other issues identified in this assessment, throughout the Housing Element programs and policies. Program H-17.1 has been included to affirmatively further fair housing, per AB 686, and take meaningful actions that address significant disparities in housing needs and access to opportunities for a ll groups protect by state and federal law. Regional coordination efforts outlined in several programs will ensure that the City furthers patterns of integration and development of affordable housing in such a way that it will have a positive impact on residents of the city and region.

HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES AND RESOURCES
This section includes an evaluation of the availability of land resources , the financial resources for future housing development, the City’s ability to satisfy its share of the region’s future housing needs, and the financial resources available to assist in implementing the City’s housing programs. Additionally, this section examines opportunities for energy conservation.

REGIONAL HOUSING NEED
The City of Wildomar falls under the jurisdiction of SCAG. SCAG is responsible for developing a Regional Housing Needs Plan (RHNP) allocating the region’s sh are of the statewide housing needs to lower-level councils of governments, which then allocate the needs to cities and counties in the region. The RHNA is a minimum projection of additional housing units needed to accommodate projected household growth of all income levels by the end of the Housing Element’s statutory planning period.

In March 2021, the SCAG Regional Council adopted the final 6th Cycle RHNA, which assigned 2,715 units across all income categories for the City of Wildomar, as shown in Table HNA-20. This allocation includes 399 extremely low-income units, 399 very low-income units, 450 low-income units, 434 moderate-income units, and 1,033 above moderate-income units.

HNA-72 Adopted – October 13, 2021

AVAILABILITY OF LAND
To demonstrate the capacity to meet its 2021-2029 RHNA, the City compiled an inventory of adequate sites.

The sites listed in Table HNA-23 are currently available and will allo w for the development of a variety of housing types that will potentially meet the needs of a ll income groups as allocated by SCAG for the 2021- 2029 planning period.

The inventory must identify adequate sites that w ill be made available through appropriate zoning and development standards and with public services an d facilities needed to fa cilitate and encourage the development of a variety of housing types for households of all income levels. The analysis of the relationship of suitable sites to zoning provides a means for determining the realistic number of dwelling units that could actually be constructed on those sites within the current planning period. The analysis also identifies the zoning districts the City believes can accommodate its share of the regional housing needs for all income levels.

REALISTIC CAPACITY
The City considered and evaluated the implementation of its current multifamily development standards and on-site improvement requirements (e.g., setbacks, build ing height, parking, and open space requirements) which provided a realistic capacity of 80 percent. The City also looked at project examples to determine the appropriate realistic capacity. The City reviewed a project that includes 225 housing units on a 10.35 acre lot.

This project has a land use designation of Very Hi gh Density Residential (VHDR), which allows for a maximum of 20 units per acre. Based on the allowable density and the acreage a maximum of 207 units would be permitted on this site. Therefore, the realistic capacity of this project is over 100 percent.

Although this project example shows that over 100 pe rcent capacity could be assumed, the City took a conservative approach and assumed an 80 percent rea listic capacity on solely resi dential sites. To determine the realistic capacity on mixed use sites, the City requires both residential and commercial uses to be developed on each site and requires that a minimum of 30 percent of the site capacity be used for residential uses. The City is assuming a mix of 30-percent and 50-percent residential will develop on the MUPA sites.

It should be noted that each parcel’s density is d etermined by the land use designation and not the zoning.

Therefore, all sites included in the inventory have been organized by land use designation and allocated to the category in which they will develop at maximum potential. 210

ZONING TO ACCOMMODATE THE DEVELOPMENT OF HOUSING AFFORDABLE

TO LOWER-INCOME HOUSEHOLDS
Housing Element law requires jurisdictions to provide a requisite analysis showing that zones identified for lower-income households are sufficient to encourage such development. The law provides two options for preparing the analysis: (1) describe market demand an d trends, financial feasibility, and recent development experience; (2) utilize default density standards d eemed adequate to meet the appropriate zoning test.

According to state law, the default density standard for the City of Wildomar is 30 dwelling units per acre.

Land use designations of Highest-Density Residential (HHDR) and Mixed-Use Planning Area (MUPA) both allow at least 30 units per acre. HHDR allows for 20–40 units per acre and MUPA allows for at least 30 units per acre. In 2013, the City of Wildomar adopted Ordinance 85 which applied the Mixed-Use Overlay zone to all sites with the MUPA land use designation to en sure consistency, and affordable housing opportunities.

The Mixed-Use Overlay zone falls under the development standards of the R-4 zoning district. Development standards can be found in Table HNA-28.

ACCESSORY DWELLING UNIT POTENTIAL
California Government Code Section 65583.1(a) states that a town, city, or coun ty may identify sites for ADU’s based on the number of ADU’s developed in the prior housing element planning period, whether the units are permitted by right, the need for ADU’s in the community, the resources or incentives available for their development, and any other relevant factors. Based on recent changes in state law reducing the time to review and approve ADU applications, requiring ADU’s that meet requirements be allowed by right, eliminating discretionary review for most ADU’s, and removing other restrictions on ADU’s, it is anticipated that the production of ADU’s will increase in the 6th Cycle planning period.

The City issued permits for one ADU per year from 2015 to 2017 and two in 2019. This analysis assumes that the number of ADU applications and permits will in crease slightly during the 2021-2029 projection period, averaging 1.4 ADU’s per year, for a total of 11 ADU’s during the planning period. To promote ADU’s, the City has included Program H-9.1 to comply with state law and make construction of ADU’s feasible for more property owners.

To determine assumptions on ADU affordability in the SCAG region, SCAG conducted a regional analysis of existing ADU rents in April and June 2020. The analysis resulted in affordability assumptions for Riverside County jurisdictions that allocate 57.6 percent of ADU’s to lower-income households, 34.8 percent to moderate-income households, and 7.7 percent to a bove moderate-income households. Affordability of 211

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

HNA-74 Adopted – October 13, 2021

ADU’s projected to be built within the city during the planning period were based on the SCAG analysis. Of the 11 ADU’s projected to be built, it is estimated that 6 will be for lower-income households, 4 for moderate- income households, and one for above moderate-income households.

PROPOSED PROJECT
In January 2021, Palm Communities, Inc. submitted to the City an SB 330 Pre-Application Review (PAR) for a 225-unit affordable housing project (Tres Lagos) on a 10.35 acre site located at the SEC of Catt Road and Arnett Road. A formal SB 35 application was submitted in May 2021. The proposed project includes 180 housing units affordable to lower income households, 42 units affordable to moderate-income households, and three manager units (Table HNA-21). The funding for this project is still pending but the project will be 100 percent affordable. Once funding is secured the affordability breakdown for the lower income units will be determined.

It should also be noted, sites TL-1 through TL – 5 were originally purchased by Riverside County in 2007 using redevelopment funds. These sites have a covenant agreement that contains affordability restrictions for any project on these sites. Units must be affordable to very low-, low-, a moderate household for a 55-year timeframe.

SITE INVENTORY
Table HNA-22 compares the City of Wildomar’s RHNA to the site inventory capacity. Table HNA-23 and Table HNA-24 provide the characteristics of the available sites for the develo pment of single-family homes and multifamily units. Figure HNA-11 provides a Land Inventory Map showing all the available sites within the city. Figures HNA-12 through HNA-15 provide a close-up of each of th e four quadrants of the city, again showing the available sites. The city has many sites available for the development of housing affordable to all income levels (Table HNA-23 and Table HNA-24). Although some of the sites listed do not include parcel- specific information, the sites with parcel-specific data provide enough capacity to meet the above-moderate RHNA.

Note: The City’s first adopted Housing Element was 2013-2021; therefore, no sites have been included in the inventory for two cycles.

Large Sites
To facilitate the development of affordable housing on parcels 50 to 150 units in size, the City will routinely give high priority to processing subdivision maps that include affordable housing units. Also, an expedited review process is available for the subdivision of larg er sites into buildable lots where the development application can be found consistent with the General Plan, applicable Specific Plan, and master environmental impact report. Through adoption of these mechanisms, the City can provide adequate sites to accommodate its share of the region’s housing needs (Program H-1.2).

FINANCIAL RESOURCES

FEDERAL PROGRAMS
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) – This program is intended to enhance and preserve the affordable housing stock. Eligible activities includ e acquisition, rehabilitation, economic development, and public services. CDBG grants benefit primarily pers ons/households with incomes not exceeding 80 percent of the county AMI. The City receives annual grant monies for the County of Riverside as part of their CDBG program.

HOME Investment Partnership – HOME funding is a flexible grant program that is awarded on a formula basis for housing activities that consider local ma rket conditions, inadequate ho using, poverty, and housing production costs. HOME funding is provided to jurisd ictions to assist rental housing or homeownership through acquisition, construction, reconstruction, and/or rehabilitation of affordable housing. Funding is also provided for possible property acquisition, site improvements, and other expenses related to the provision of affordable housing and projects that serve a group identified as having special needs related to housing.

Housing Choice Voucher (Section 8) Program – This program provides rental assistance payments to owners of private market-rate units on behalf of very low-income tenants.

Section 811/202 Program – Nonprofit organizations and consumer cooperatives are eligible to receive no-interest capital advances from HUD for the construction of very low-income rental housing for senior citizens and persons with disabilities. Project-based a ssistance is also provided in conjunction with this program. Section 811 can be used to develop group homes, independent living facilities, and intermediate care facilities. Eligible activities include acquisition, rehabilitation, new construction, and rental assistance.

HUD Low-Income Housing Preservation and Re sident Homeownership Act (LIHPRHA) – LIHPRHA was enacted in response to concern over th e prepayment of HUD-assisted housing. The legislation addresses the prepayment of units assis ted under Section 221(d)(3) and Section 236 (Section 236 replaced the Section 221(d)(3) program in 1968). Genera lly, the law facilitates the preservation of these low- income units by providing incentives to property owners to either retain their units as low income or to sell the project to priority purchasers (tenants, nonprofits, or governmental agencies). Pursuant to LIHPRHA, HUD must offer a package of incentives to property owners to extend the low-income use restrictions. These incentives would ensure property owners an 8-percent r eturn on the recalculated equity in their property, provided the rents necessary to yield this return fall within a specified federal cost limit. The cost limits are either 120 percent of the fair market rent or the prevailing rent in the local market. If HUD can provide the owner with this return, the owner cannot prepay the mortgage. The owner must either stay in the program or 229

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

HNA-92 Adopted – October 13, 2021

offer to sell the project (a voluntary sale) to a prio rity purchaser for a 12-month option period or to other purchasers for an additional three months. The owner is required to document this choice in a Plan of Action.

If HUD cannot provide the owner with the 8-percent return, i.e., the rents required would exceed federal cost limits, the owner may prepay only after offering the sa le to priority purchasers for 12 months or to other qualified buyers for an additional three months (a mandatory sale) and filing a Plan of Action that demonstrates that conversion will not adversely impact affordable housing or displace tenants. According to the California Housing Partnership Corporation, most projects in California will fall within federal cost limits, except those with exceptionally high rental value or condominium conversion potential.

Projects that are preserved under eith er of these methods are required to maintain affordability restrictions for the remaining useful life of the project, which is defined minimally as 50 years. Despite these requirements, property owners may still be able to prepay. First, the owner may prepay the property if no bona fide offer to purchase the property is made. Second, HUD may not prov ide some of the discretionary monies to priority purchasers in preservation sales. Finally, the overa ll success of the preservation efforts is contingent on congressional appropriation of sufficient funding to HUD.

STATE PROGRAMS
California Housing Finance Agency Multiple Rental Housing Programs – This program provides below-market-rate financing to builders and developers of multiple-family and elderly rental housing. Tax- exempt bonds provide below-market mortgage money. Eligible activities in clude new construction, rehabilitation, and acquisition of properties with 20–150 units.

Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) – This program provides tax credits to individuals and corporations that invest in low-income rental housing. Tax credits are sold to corporations and people with high tax liability, and proceeds are used to create ho using. Eligible activities include new construction, rehabilitation, and acquisition.

California Community Rein vestment Corporation – This private, nonprof it mortgage banking consortium provides long-term debt financing for affordable multifamily rental housing. Eligible activities include new construction, rehabilitation, and acquisition. 230

LOCAL PROGRAMS
Nonprofit Entities – Nonprofit entities serving Riverside County, including Wildomar, can be contacted to gauge their interest and ability in acquiring and/or managing units at risk of conversion. A partial listing of entities with resources in the Riverside County area includes:
 Alternatives for Domestic Violence
 Shelter from the Storm
 Catholic Charities
 Coachella Valley Housing Coalition
 Fair Housing Council of Riverside County
 Family Service Association of Riverside County
 Habitat for Humanity
 Lutheran Social Services

OPPORTUNITIES FOR ENERGY CONSERVATION
The cost of housing includes not only rent but also ut ility costs. Higher utility expenses reduce affordability.

Building affordable homes is not the same as making homes affordable to live in. Cheaply built homes invite callbacks, complaints, and discomfort, and they waste en ergy. Therefore, additional first costs to improve energy efficiency do not make housing less affordable in the long run. Energy efficiency in affordable housing, more than any other building sector, makes a critical impact on the lives of tenants. According to HUD, utility bills burden the poor and can cause homelessness. The fo llowing is a list of available programs related to energy conservation that can be considered and engaged in the production of affordable housing:
 241(a) Rehabilitation Loans for Multifamily Projects – HUD-funded program that provides mortgage insurance for improvements, repairs, or additions to multifamily projects. Energy conservation improvements are an eligible activity for mortgage financing.  Department of Energy (DOE) Energy Weatherization Assistance Program – Reduces the heating and cooling costs for low-income families by improving energy efficiency of their homes.

Focuses on low-income seniors, individuals with disabilities, and families with children. Assistance includes (1) in-home energy education; (2) energy-related home repairs; (3) blower door guided air sealing; (4) heat system safety tests, repair, an d tune; (5) duct insulation and sealing; (6) attic insulation; and (7) hot water savings measures . The program is funded by the California Department of Community Services and Development.
231

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

HNA-94 Adopted – October 13, 2021

 Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) – The LIHEAP block grant is funded by the Department of Health and Human Services and provides financial assistance and home weatherization. This is accomplished thro ugh three components: (1) The Weatherization Program, which provides free weatherization services to improve the energy efficiency of homes including attic insulation, weatherstripping, minor housing repairs, and related conservation measures; (2) the Home Energy Assistance Program (HEAP), which provides financial assistance to eligible households to offset the costs of heating or cooling dwellings; and (3) the Energy Crisis Intervention Program, which provides payments for weather-related emergencies. Funding for the program is provided by the California Department of Community Services and Development.  Neighborhood Housing Services (NHS) – NHS is a three-way pa rtnership funded among neighborhood residents, local go vernment, and local businesses. Neighborhood Reinvestment Group funds the program and provides direct technical assistance, expendable grants, and capital grants to NHS, which makes loans for rehabilitation.
 Rural Housing Preservation Grants – Supports the rehabilitation and repair of homeownership and rental housing for very low- and low-income households living in rural substandard housing.

The program is funded by the Rural Housing Service.
 Weatherization Program – Provides weatherization services and assistance through grants and financial assistance. Activities may include energy conservation measures, weatherization such as weatherstripping, water heater wrap, insulati on of various home components, and financial assistance. The program is funded by Southe rn California Gas, Weatherization and Energy- Efficient Rehabilitation Program, DOE, and LIHEAP.

CONSTRAINTS
Various interrelated factors can constrain the ability of the private and public sectors to provide adequate housing and meet the housing needs for all economic segments of the community. These factors can be divided into two categories: (1) governmental c onstraints and (2) non-governmental constraints.

Governmental constraints consist of land use controls, development standards, processing fees, development impact fees, code enforcement, site improvement costs, development permit and approval processing, and provisions for a variety of housing. Non-governmental constraints consist of land availability, the environment, vacancy rates, land cost, construction costs, and availability of financing.

GOVERNMENTAL CONSTRAINTS
Governmental constraints are policies, standards, require ments, or actions imposed by the various levels of government upon land and housing ownership and devel opment. Although federal and state agencies play a role in the imposition of governmental constraints, these agencies are beyond the influence of local government and are therefore not addressed in this document.

LAND USE CONTROLS
General Plan Land Use Designations
Each city and county in California must prepare a comprehensive, long-term General Plan to guide its future.

The Land Use Element of the General Plan establishes the basic land uses and density of development within each jurisdiction. Under state law, the General Plan elements must be internally consistent, and each jurisdiction’s zoning must be consistent with its Ge neral Plan. Thus, the Land Use Element must provide suitable locations and densities to implement the policies of the Housing Element.

Table HNA-25 shows the residential General Plan land use designations for the City of Wildomar. The land use designations support a variety of housing types, ranging from very low-de nsity development, which generally includes single-family homes on large lots, to high-density development, which includes multifamily development.

Zoning Districts
Zoning, unlike the General Plan, is regulatory. Under Wildomar’s Municipal Code, development must comply with specific, enforceable standards, such as minimum lot requireme nts, minimum setbacks, maximum building heights, and a list of allowable uses (Table HNA-26).

DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS
The City of Wildomar regulates the type, location, dens ity, and scale of residential development primarily through its Municipal Code. Zoning regulations are de signed to protect and promote the health, safety, and general welfare of residents, as well as preserve the character and integrity of neighborhoods. The Wildomar Municipal Code sets forth the specific reside ntial development standards summarized in Table HNA-28.

The City’s development standards are also available on the City’s website.

Typical Densities for Development
The City of Wildomar is a small city in Riverside County with physical constraints to outward expansion, such as steep topography to the west and the boundaries of neighboring cities to the north, east, and south. Single- family residential lots generally vary in size from approximately 7,200 to 20,000 square feet in the low-density to medium- and high-density residential zones. Multifam ily densities are typically between 8 to 20 units per acre depending on the land use designation. In the previous planning period, no sites identified to accommodate the lower-income RHNA in the inventory were developed below the minimum allowable density of the zone in which the site is located and the City did not receive any requests to develop below the assumed capacity in the sites inventory.

Parking Requirements
In Southern California, providing sufficient parking for vehicles is an essential part of good planning. At the same time, however, excessive parking requirements ca n detract from the feasibility of developing new housing at a range of densities necessary to facilitate affordable housing. The City’s Municipal Code establishes residential parking standards, as summarized in Table HNA-29 . In addition to these standards, the City currently requires at least one pa rking space for every staff member in a multi-family building and for emergency shelters, in compliance with Californi a Government Code Section 65583(a)(4)(A)(ii), and one parking space for every 10 temporary residents for emer gency shelters. The parking standards included in Table HNA-29 have already factored in the need for guest parking. Additional guest parking is not required.

Program H-13.1 specifically commits to reviewing parking standards for emergency shelters. 238

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

Adopted – October 13, 2021 HNA-101

Residential parking standards are not deemed to be a constraint to the development, improvement, and maintenance of housing. The current standards match current vehicle ownership patterns of residents and do not have an impact on the cost or supply of housing. To assist with the development of housing affordable to lower-income households, the City allows for parking reductions for affordable projects (see Programs H-1.3 and H-3.1)

*Please refer to Section 17.204.040.D.5 of the Wildomar Municipal Code for exceptions to the ADU parking requirement.
*Mobile Home Park spaces may be tandem but must provide one guest space for every eight mobile home spaces.

Density Bonus
The Wildomar Municipal Code currently provides a dens ity bonus of up to 35 percent over the otherwise maximum allowable residential density under the munici pal code and the Land Use Element of the General Plan (or bonuses of equivalent financial value) when builders agree to construct housing developments with units affordable to low- or moderate-income households. The City of Wildomar has included Program H-

8.1 to increase the density bonus allowance comply with current state law (Government Code Section 65915).

Despite the need for an ordinance update, the City is currently complying with the applicable State density bonus law.

PROVISIONS FOR A VARIETY OF HOUSING
Housing Element law specifies that jurisdictions must identify adequate sites to be made available through appropriate zoning and development standards to encourage the development of various types of housing for all economic segments of the population. This incl udes single-family housing, multifamily housing, manufactured housing, mobile homes, emergency shel ters, and transitional housing, among others.

Emergency Shelters
The California Health and Safety Code (Section 50801[e] ) defines an emergency shelter as “housing with minimal supportive services for homeless persons that is limited to occupancy of six months or less by a homeless person. No individual or household may be de nied emergency shelter because of an inability to pay.”
The Wildomar Municipal Code currently allows emergen cy shelters with approval of a plot plan in the Industrial Park zoning district. This In December 2013 Chapter 17.88 of the Wildomar Municipal Code was amended to permit emergency shelters in the I-P zone and managerial standards were adopted. The required a plot plan review is a ministerial process and it use d to verify that the proposed project meets the City’s development standards as part of a plan check review. No public hearing is required.

The City also adopted objective managerial standards to encourage and facilitate the development of or conversion to an emergency shelter. Development standards for emergency shelters in Wildomar include:
 No emergency shelter shall be located within 250 feet of any other emergency shelter.  An emergency shelter shall not exceed 40 residents, excluding staff.  Any single resident’s stay shall not exceed six consecutive months.  Emergency shelters shall provide one parking space for every staff member and one parking space for every 10 temporary residents.

Currently, there are approximately 83.84 acres (13 parcels ranging in size from 1.4 to 28.6 acres with a majority of the parcels being 2–5 acres) of va cant land available in Wildomar, which allows adequate capacity for an emergency shelter.

These vacant sites are close to services and future transit as development occurs. The sites surrounding these available parcels are mainly business park-type uses, service commercial and light manufacturing companies (there is no heavy hazardous manufacturing). There are also such uses as an indoor golfing range, a hospital, medical office buildings, and even a few residential units.

Low Barrier Navigation Centers
Government Code section 65662 requires that the de velopment of Low-Barrier Navigation Centers be developed as a use by right in zones where mixed-uses are allowed or in non-reside ntial zones that permit 243

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

HNA-106 Adopted – October 13, 2021

multifamily housing. For a navigation center to be considered “low barrier”, its operation should incorporate best practices to reduce barriers to entry, which may include, but is not limited to, the following:
• Permitting the presence of partners if it is not a population-specific site, such as for survivors of domestic violence or sexual assault, women, or youth
• Pets
• Ability to store possessions
• Providing privacy, such as private rooms or partitions around beds in a dormitory setting or in larger rooms with multiple beds
Program 13.1 has been included to comply with State Law.

Supportive and Transitional Housing
Supportive housing is defined by Section 50675.14 of the Health and Safety Code as housing with linked on- or off-site services with no limit on the length of stay and which is occupied by a target population, as defined in Health and Safety Code S ection 53260 (i.e., low-income person with mental disabilities, AIDS, substance abuse, or chronic health conditions, or persons whose di sabilities originated before the age of 18). Services linked to supportive housing usually focuses on retain ing housing, living and working in the community, and/or health improvement.

Transitional housing is defined in Section 50675.2(h) of the Health and Safety Code as rental housing for stays of at least six months but where the units are recircula ted to another program recipient after a set period. It may be designated for a homeless individual or family transitioning to permanent housing. This housing can take many structural forms, such as group housing and multifamily units, and may include supportive services to allow individuals to gain necessary life skills in support of independent living.

Pursuant to Government Code Section 65583, transiti onal and supportive housing types are required to be treated as residential uses and subject only to those restrictions that apply to other residential uses of the same type in the same zone. Transitional and supportive housing as defined in the Health and Safety Code are permitted by right without a conditional use permit in residential zones. . The Wildomar Municipal Code permits transitional and supportive housing, as defined by the Health and Safety Code. Supportive housing is also permitted by right in all non-residential and mixed-use zones that permit multifamily development, consistent with Government Code Sections 65583 and 65650. 244

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

Adopted – October 13, 2021 HNA-107

Extremely Low-Income Households
Extremely low-income households typically comprise persons with special housing needs, including, but not limited to, persons experiencing homelessness or at risk of homelessness, persons with substance abuse problems, and farmworkers. AB 2634 (Lieber 2006) requires the quantification and analysis of existing and projected housing needs of extremely low-income households. Housing Elements must also identify zoning to encourage and facilitate supportive housing and single-room occupancy units.

Currently, Wildomar allows single-room occupancy unit s in the Planned Residential (R-4) and Residential Incentive (R-6) zones with approval of a conditional use permit. In addition, to encourage and facilitate the development of housing affordable to extremel y low-income households, the City has included Programs H-3.1, H-10.1 and H-11.1.

Residential Care Facilities
Health and Safety Code Sections 1267.8, 1566.3, and 1568.08 require local governments to treat licensed group homes and residential care facilities with six or fewer residents no differently than other by-right single-family housing uses. “Six or fewer persons” does not include the operator, the operator’s family, or persons employed as staff. Local agencies must allow these licensed residential care facilities in any area zoned for residential use and may not require licensed residential care facilities for six or fewer persons to obtain conditional use permits or variances that are not required of other family dwellings.

Currently, the Wildomar Municipal Code permits State-li censed residential care facilities with six or fewer residents by right in residential zones and permits residential care facilities with seven or more residents with a conditional use permit in the R-2 and R-3 zones. The City has included Program H-13.3 to explore allowing these facilities for seven or more persons only subject to those restrictions that apply to other residential uses of the same type in the same zone.

Housing for Persons with Disabilities
The City of Wildomar incorporates the Federal Fair Housing Act and the California Fair Employment and Housing Act of 1964 as a part of its building require ments. These two statutes address the fair housing practices adhered to by the City, which include practices against housing discrimination toward persons with disabilities. In compliance with SB 520, a complete evaluation of the City’s zoning laws, practices, and policies was initiated in late 2020 and is expected to be completed in 2021. No constraints to housing development for persons with disabilities were found at that time. However, Program H-20.1 has been incorporated into the Housing Element to address unmet housing needs for persons with a disability. 245

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

HNA-108 Adopted – October 13, 2021

Procedures for Ensuring Reasonable Accommodations
The City has adopted an ordinance establishing form al procedures to expeditiously review and process requests for reasonable accommodation for persons with disabilities. City staff is available via telephone, email, mail, and in person at City offices to discuss the process for providing reasonable accommodation from City zoning and building code requirements.
 Reasonable Accommodations Procedure. The City will grant applications to provide relief from zoning standards or other City requirements that serve as a barrier to fair housing for persons with disabilities. The City streamlines reasona ble accommodation requests by not requiring approval of a variance. Requests for reasonable accommodations are reviewed by the community development director or designee. There are no application fees and requests are processed within 30 days of a complete application for a reasonable accommodation. The community development director’s decision may be appealed to the Planni ng Commission at a public hearing. The City strives to make the permit process for reas onable accommodation as straightforward and expeditious as possible.
 Separation requirements – The City’s Municipal Code does not impose any separation requirements between group homes or residential care facilities.  Site planning requirements – The site planning requirements for residential care facilities are no different than for other residential uses in the same zone.  Definition of Family. – The Wildomar Municipal Code defines family as: one or more persons living together in a dwelling unit, with common access to and common use of all living, kitchen, and eating areas within the dwelling unit.

The written decision to approve, conditionally approve, or deny a request for a reasonable accommodation shall be based on the following findings, all of which are required for approval or conditional approval of a reasonable accommodation:
 The requested accommodation is requested by or on the behalf of one or more disabled persons protected under the Acts.
 The requested accommodation is necessary to provide one or more disabled persons an equal opportunity to use and enjoy a dwelling.
 The requested accommodation will not impose an un due financial or administrative burden on the City as “undue financial or administrative burden” is defined in Acts. 246

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

Adopted – October 13, 2021 HNA-109

 The requested accommodation will not result in a fundamental alteration in the nature of the City’s zoning program, as “fundamental alteration” is defined in the Acts.  The requested accommodation will not, under the specific facts of the case, result in a direct threat to the health or safety of other individuals or substantial physical damage to the property of others.

LOCAL PROCESSING AND PERMIT PROCEDURES
Development review procedures exist to ensure that proposals for new residential development comply with local regulations and are compatible with adjacent land uses. As shown in Table HNA-31, processing times for Wildomar are relatively quick: single-family and multifamily projects require two months (see Table HNA-32). Note: Review times differ on a case-by-case basis depending on the type and complexity of the project.

The costs associated with development project review will vary between projects. Wildomar uses an efficient and comprehensive approach toward development review and permitting that allows for quick response to developer applications. The City uses many practices to expedite application processing, reduce costs, and clarify the process to developers and homeowners. Increased development costs resulting from delays in the City’s development review, public hearing, and permitting process are not considered a constraint on housing development. Therefore, the City’s development review process is not seen as a constraint to the development of housing.

Senate Bill 330 Processing Procedure
Senate Bill 330, the Housing Crisis Act of 2019, es tablished specific requirements and limitations on development application procedures. The bill allo ws housing developments for which a preliminary application is submitted that complies with applicable general plan and zoning standards is subject only to the development standards and fees that were applicable at the time of submittal. This applies to all projects unless the project square footage or unit count change s by more than 20 percent after the preliminary application is submitted. The developer must submit a full application for the development project within 180 days of submitting the preliminary application.

Wildomar offers an optional pre-application revi ew (PAR) for all development proposals to advise a prospective applicant of current City standards and re quirements, shorten the length of time required to process a development proposal once it has been accepted for processing, provide a written record of staff’s assessment of a development proposal, and limit requests for special studies to those identified in the PAR letter. Pre-application meetings have helped to shorten the review process and allow for better communication 247

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

HNA-110 Adopted – October 13, 2021

between applicants, City departments, and utility provid ers. The City has established an application process related to SB 330 in Chapter 17.214 of the City’s Zoning Code.

Senate Bill 35 Approvals
Senate Bill 35 requires jurisdictions that have failed to meet their RHNA to provide streamlined, ministerial entitlement process for housing developments that incorporate affordable housing. The City of Wildomar has a SB 35 application available to developers that includes specific requirements for the streamlining procedure.

The application is available on the City’s website for developers interested in pursuing the streamlined process.

This procedure aids in minimizing the review time required for development processes and, in turn, reducing costs to developers that may increase the housing production in the City.

Permit Processing Procedures
Permit processing procedures and timelines are often cited by the development community as a primary contributor to housing costs. However, the City has taken several steps to streamline the development review approval process. The City’s Planning Department processes planning permits and entitlement applications, including design review, use permits, variances, rezones, and general plan amendments in accordance with state law (i.e., permit streamlining act). The City requi res that construction drawings be submitted to the Community Development Department for plan review. Plans are reviewed to ensur e that the project meets City requirements outlined in the Municipal Code and the California Building Code. If such requirements are not met, City staff notifies the applicant of the nece ssary revisions, and the applicant must re-submit for review. Once all requirements are met, the applicant must pay all remaining fees, upon which the City issues a building permit and construction can begin.

There are different steps in the approval process a housing development must go through depending on the type and conditions of the development. Housing projects that require a CEQA MND or EIR, General Plan Amendment or Zone Change require Planning Commissi on and City Council approval (per state law). The permit processing timelines and procedures which are established by the permit streamlining act are consistent with other jurisdictions in the state and do not pose a constraint on the development of housing but in fact ensures these projects are streamlined.

Small single-family home construction only requires a build ing permit as part of an administrative review.

Single-family subdivisions of 4 or less lots only require Planning Dir ector approval of a parcel map (1 hearing/2-month timeframe). Single-family subdivisi ons of 5 or more lots require Planning Commission approval of a tract map per state law (1 hearing / 3-month timeframe). All single-family residential development (except a single home on a single lot) are required to c onform to the City’s Single Family Residential Design Standards and Guidelines which further help to expedite the processing timelines.

Multifamily developments (less than 3 units) require ad ministrative staff approval of a Minor Plot review by the Planning Director (0 public hearings / 30-day review time). Multifamily developments (more than 3 units) are subject to a Plot Plan approval by the Planning Commission (1 public hearing / 3-month review time when CEQA exempt; and 1 public hearing / 6 mont h review time when MND/EIR is required). If multifamily projects require a General Plan Amendmen t or Zone Change, then these projects require 1 additional public hearing with the City Council (per state law) which adds an extra 30 days to the timeframe.

Appeal
If the Planning Commission denies a project, the applicant can appeal the denial to the City Council.

Conclusion
The City’s review process is typical of any jurisdiction and is intended to not constrain the development of multifamily or single-family housing. The city offers pre-application review meetings early in the process to ensure a clear understanding of the city policies and standards which are intended to streamline formal project submittals. The City’s single family residential desi gn standards and the multifamily residential design standards are intended to provide developers, builders, and architects with a clear statement of the desired architectural and site design characteristics for new single family and multi-family residential development.

The City’s single family residential design standards and guidelines provide specifics including but not limited to, design style including colors and materials that are encouraged, building facades, roof planes, streetscape deign, garage location and design, walls and fences. The multifamily residential design standards use language and imagery to convey architectural and site planning concepts and outline the required design elements relating to form and massing, roofs, walls and windows, materials and colors and architectural features.

relies on the city’s objective design standards to pr omote approval certainty an d minimize processing timelines.

Approval to Building Permit
After a project is approved by the Planning Commission or City Council (refer to table HNA-31 for approval body), it becomes the applicant’s responsibility to initiate the steps to secure building permits and approvals and begin construction in accordance with the approved plans. These steps include obtaining additional City clearances and paying fees as outlined in a project’s conditions of approval. Other necessary actions for the applicant include:
 Completing construction drawings after project approval (city does not control this timeline)  Recording with the County Clerk subdivision (final) maps (applies to ownership projects)  Retaining contractors
 Obtaining utility approvals (not owned by the city), required easements and rights of entry The length of time between a project’s approval and building permit issuance in many cases is determined by the applicant. Once a project begins the construction plan review process, the following general timelines can be achieved with responsive applicants:
 Land Use Entitlement timelines and procedures generally take 3-6 months, but if they are considered major projects (projects requiring CEQA compliance), the process could take 6 – 12 months.
 Building permit approval timelines generally take 1-3 months (actual timeline depends on how fast an applicant can resubmit plans with corrections, etc.) TABLE HNA-32: TYPICAL PROCESSING PROCEDURES BY PROJECT TYPE Single-Family and Multifamily Process Time to Complete (days or months) Step 1: Entitlement/submittal of construction doc. 15- day review period; then 10-day, then 5-day Step 2: Plan check Same as above

Design Guidelines
The City of Wildomar revised and adopted its design gu idelines for single-family residential development in November 2018. The City also adopted objective design standards for multifamily development on September 9, 2020. The purpose of the design standards and guid elines is to ensure that the design of proposed development and new land uses assists in maintaining and enhancing the character of the community. The goals and purposes of these procedures and requirements are to:
 Ensure that new homes are constructed in neig hborhoods that are interesting and varied in appearance.
 Utilize building materials and enhanced landscaping to promote a look of quality, both at the time of initial occupancy and in future years.
 Encourage efficient use of land while creating high-quality communities that will maintain their economic value and long-term desirability as places to live and work.  Incorporate conveniently located neighborhood parks, trails, and open space.  Provide developers with a clear statement of the desired architectural and site design characteristics for new multifamily residential development.
 Ensure multifamily buildings contribute to cr eating high-quality neighborhoods and desirable places to live.

Table HNA-33 summarizes the residential lot design standards for any single-family residential subdivision, as outlined in the adopted design guidelines. Table HNA-34 summarizes site design standards for multi- family residential; additional details on form and ma ssing, roof design, walls, windows, materials, colors and specific building types can be found in the City’s Multi -Family Residential Objective Design Standards. In general, the guidelines were prepared to address market-rate housing developments.

Either the Planning Commission or City Council may be the final review authority of both single-family and multi-family projects in regards to design review base d on the hearing processes. The approval, denial, or approval with conditions is based on the projects adherence to form, massing, roof design, and other aesthetic elements identified in the City’s Multi-Family Reside ntial Objective Design Standards or the Single Family Residential Design Standards and Guidelines. Exceptions to these standards and guidelines may occur under three circumstances at the discretion of the Planning Director, Planning Commission, or City Council:

 Other standards have been imposed upon an in dividual development project by the Planning Commission and/or the City Council.
 Other standards have been adopted by the City Council relative to a particular designated area of a District (e.g., Community Plans / Specific Plans).
 Physical constraints of an individual site make the application of a particular standard or guideline impractical.

To ensure the entitlement does not add any time constraints to a project, Design Review is typically conducted concurrently with the various required processes in cluding improvement plan review, building permit application, and any requests for financial assistance from the City.

To facilitate the goals of the design guidelines, the Ci ty has a number of policies that may provide financial incentives, density bonuses fast-tracking, and fee waiver s to those developers that include units in their projects that will be sold to low- and moderate-income households. Currently, design guidelines have had little or no effect on market-rate or affordable housing devel opment and therefore the design guidelines are not seen as a constraint to the development of housing.

CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT PROCESS
The conditional use permit process is required for ap artment housing in the R-3A zone. While no land is currently zoned as R-3A, should this zone district be applied to any land in the future the conditional use permit is required to review and address potential environmental impacts to hillsides.

Applicability
Whenever any section of this title requires that a conditional use permit be granted prior to the establishment of a use, the following provisions shall take effect.

Application
Every application for a conditional use permit shall be made in writing to the City’s Planning Director on the forms provided by the Planning Department and sha ll be accompanied by the filing fee set forth in the Municipal Code. Applications will include the following information:
 Name and address of the applicant.
 Evidence that he or she is the owner of the premises involved or that he or she has written permission of the owner to make such application.
 A plot and development plan drawn in sufficient detail to clearly describe the following:
o Physical dimensions of property and structures
o Location of existing and proposed structures
o Setbacks
o Methods of circulation
o Ingress and egress
o Utilization of property under the requested permit
254

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

Adopted – October 13, 2021 HNA-117

 Such additional information as shall be required by the application form.  Dimensioned elevations, including details of proposed mate rials for elevations.

Public Hearing
A public hearing shall be held on the application for a conditional use permit in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 17.200 of the Wildomar Municipal Code, and all the procedural requirements and rights of appeal as set forth therein shall govern the hearing. Notwithstanding the above, or any other provision herein to the contrary, the hearing on any conditiona l use permit that requires approval of a general plan amendment, a specific plan amendment, or a change of zone shall be heard in accordance with the provisions of Section

17.08.050, 17.08.060, or 17.280.040 of the Wildomar Municipal Code, whichever is applicable, and all of the procedural requirements and rights of appeal as set forth shall govern the hearing.

Conditions
A conditional use permit shall not be granted unless the applicant demons trates that the proposed use will not be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of the community. Any permit that is granted shall be subject to such conditions as shall be necessary to protect the health, safety, or general welfare of the community.

Use of Permit
Any conditional use permit that is granted shall be valid for three years following the approval of the conditional use permit, unless the permit as granted specifies a shorter initial time period. If a permit has not been exercised within the three-year time period, the permittee may request an extension of time prior to the expiration date provided an application is filed with the City’s Planning Director along with the required fee.

Upon receipt of a request for a time extension request, the Planning Director shall schedule the request for Planning Commission consideration. At least 10 da ys prior to the scheduled meeting, the Planning Department shall mail a public notice to all property ow ners of real property within a 600-foot radius of the project boundary. The Planning Commission may extend th e first request for an extension of time by an additional three years, the second request for an extension of time can be granted for an additional two years, and the third extension request can only be extended for a final one-year period provided the findings outlined in Section 17.200.060(C) of the Municipal Code are met.

Revocation of Permit
Any conditional use permit granted may be revoked u pon the findings and procedure contained in Chapter

17.220 of the Municipal Code.

BUILDING CODES AND ENFORCEMENT
The City of Wildomar uses the 2019 California Buildin g Code, which establishes standards and requires inspections at various stages of construction to ensure code compliance. Although these standards and the time required for inspections increase housing production costs and may impact the viability of rehabilitation of older properties that are required to be brought up to current code standards, the intent of the codes is to provide structurally sound, safe, and energy-efficient housing.

The City has made one amendment to the local code, which was the inclusion of the 2019 California Green Building Code in 2019.

The City’s Building and Safety Department is respons ible for enforcing both state and city regulations governing maintenance of all buildings and property. Like most cities, Wildomar responds to code enforcement problems largely on a complaint basis.

DEVELOPMENT FEES
Like cities throughout California, Wildomar collects development fees to recover the capital costs of providing community services and the administrative costs associated with processing applications.

Payment of fees is necessary to maintain an adequate level of services and facilities, and more generally, to protect public health, safety, and welfare. Based on a review of fees in neighboring jurisdictions and discussions with local developers, development fees in Wildomar are comparable to, and in some cases lower than, most other cities in the region.

As a means of assessing the cost that fees contribute to development in Wildomar, the City has calculated the total fees associated with development of a single-family and multifamily development. As indicated in Table HNA-35, development impact fees for a single-family re sidential project are approximately $6,954, and development fees for a multifamily project are approximately $4,805. A full list of fees applicable to planning and building residential development fees is provided in Table HNA-36 and are also available on the City’s website or on the websites of the entities that impose the fee such as the school district or county. Fees such as school impact fees and transportation uniform mitigation fees are outside of the City’s control or influence.

The fees are comparable to jurisdictions in the region and are not considered a constraint to the development of housing.

ON- AND OFF-SITE IMPROVEMENTS
Site improvement costs include the cost of providing access to the site, clearing the site, and grading the pad area. In the case of a subdivision, such costs may al so include major improvements, such as building roads and installing sewer, water, and other utilities. As with land costs, several variables affect costs, including site topography and proximity to established roads, sewer s, and water lines. Engineering and other technical assistance costs are usually included wi th site improvements as these servi ces are required to ensure that development is constructed according to established codes and standards.

The City requires residential project improvements to incl ude curb/gutter and drainage facilities, sidewalks, paved streets, landscaping, and water and sewer service. The standard street section includes 60 feet of right- of way, with 40 feet dedicated fo r street improvements, and 10 feet on each side for sidewalk and parkway improvements. These and other site improvement costs are typical of all cities in California and do not impose a significant constraint on the development of housi ng in Wildomar. The City does not impose any unusual requirements as conditions of approval for new development.

AVAILABLE DRY UTILITIES
Dry utilities, including cable, electricity, and telephone service, are available to all areas within the City. There is sufficient capacity to meet the current need and any future need. Service providers are as follows:
 Cable: Verizon and Spectrum
 Electricity: Southern California Edison
 Telephone: Verizon
 Internet Service: Verizon, Spectrum, and Frontier Communications

REVIEW OF LOCAL ORDINANCES
The City does not have any locally adopted ordinances that hinder the development of housing. 259

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

HNA-122 Adopted – October 13, 2021

NON-GOVERNMENTAL CONSTRAINTS

LAND COSTS
Land costs are one of the major comp onents of housing development costs. Land prices vary to such an extent that it is difficult to give average prices within small geographic regions. Factors affecting the costs of land include overall availability within a give n subregion; environmenta l site conditions and constraints; public service and infrastructure availabili ty; aesthetic considerations, such as views, terrain, and vegetation; the proximity to urba n areas; and parcel size. Generally, more remote areas have less expensive land available and larger tracts of land, while smaller, more expensive parcels are located closer to urbanized areas.

As of January 2021, the average cost fo r an acre lot of vacant land in Wildomar is $137,634, with prices ranging from $8,881 to $499,444 (according to a survey of Landwatch.com listings performed in 2020). The maximum price range is significantly higher now compared to vacant land cost in 2013; however, there are a few lots available at a lower price range. While land prices declined during the economic recession, they have been increasing as shown by the current price range for available vacant land. Since there are lots available at a lower price range, land costs in the next several years may actually help keep the cost of some new housing affordable. While rising land costs tend to directly increase housing costs, declining land costs should give developers more options in serving the affordable housing market segment, recognizing that some land currently held by developers was purchased at substantially higher prices than may be the case now.

CONSTRUCTION COSTS
The cost of construction depends pr imarily on the cost of materials an d labor, which ar e influenced by market demand. The cost of construction will also depend on the type of unit being built and on the quality of product being produced. The cost of labor is based on a number of factors, including housing demand, the number of contractors in the area, and the unionization of workers.

The construction cost of housing affects the affordability of new housing and may be considered a constraint to affordable housing in the Rivers ide County region. A re duction in construction costs can be brought about in several ways. A reduction in amenities and quality of building materials in new homes (still above the minimum acceptability for health, safety, and adequate performance) may result in lower sales prices.

State housing law provides that local building departments can aut horize the use of materials and 260

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

Adopted – October 13, 2021 HNA-123

construction methods if the proposed design is found to be satisfactory and the materials or methods are at least equivalent to that prescribed by the applicable building codes.

In addition, prefabricated, factory-built housing may provide lower-priced products by reducing labor and material costs. As the number of units built at one time increases, savings in construction costs over the entire development are generally realized as a result of an economy of scale, particularly when combined with density bonus provisions.

The City of Wildomar is in the pr ocess of completing an Economic Development market study and so far, the study indicates the average recent home sales price in the city is $399,332. Using current pricing sources, the average costs for a newly constructed 2,000-square -foot single-family home (not including land) in Wildomar would be calculated as shown in Table HNA-37.

TABLE HNA-37: OVERALL CONSTRUCTION COST
Item Cost
Materials $159,003
Labor $105,363
Equipment $5,047
Per Home Costs, Total $269,413
Source: Building-cost.net 2020

AVAILABILITY OF FINANCING
Interest rates are determined by national policies and economic conditions, and there is little that local governments can do to affect these rates. Jurisdictions can, however, offer interest rate write-downs to extend home purchase opportunities to lower-income households . In addition, government-insured loan programs may be available to reduce mortgage down-payment requirements.

The cost of borrowing money to finance the constru ction of housing or to purchase a house affects the amount of affordably priced housing in Wildomar. First-time homebuyers are th e group most impacted by financing requirements. As of January 2021, the curre nt mortgage interest rate for new home purchases is approximately 3 percent for a fixed-rate 30-year loan. Lower initial rates are available with graduated payment mortgages, adjustable-rate mortgages, and buy-down mortgages; however, the subprime crisis has affected the availability of dollars for home mortgages. Variable interest rate mortgages on affordable homes may increase 261

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

HNA-124 Adopted – October 13, 2021

to the point where the interest rate exceeds the cost of living adjustments, which is a constraint on affordability. Although rates are currently low, they can change significantly and substantially impact the affordability of housing stock. Fluctuating interest rates can eliminate many potential homebuyers from the housing market or render a housing project infeasible that could have been successfully developed or marketed at lower interest rates. Housing prices in Wildomar are unaffordable for persons of lower incomes, even with the lower interest rates. Housing prices are only affordable for persons with moderate or higher incomes. The constraint on homeownership in Wildomar is not the av ailability of financing, bu t the cost of housing, of which is unaffordable to lower-income households. Nor is the constraint on homeownership related to the availability of land.

Interest rates at the present time are not a constraint to affordable housing. Financing for both construction and long-term mortgages is generally available in Riverside County subject to normal underwriting standards.

A more critical impediment to homeownership involv es both the affordability of the housing stock and the ability of potential buyers to fulfill down-payment requirements. Conventional home loans typically require 5 to 20 percent of the sales price as a down payment, wh ich is the largest constraint to first-time homebuyers.

This indicates a need for flexible loan programs and a method to bridge the gap between the down payment and a potential homeowner’s available funds. The ava ilability of financing for developers under current economic conditions may also pose a constraint on development outside of the City’s control.

ENVIRONMENTAL AND INFRASTRUCTURE CONSTRAINTS
Environmental and infrastructure issues affect the amount, location, and timing of new residential development. New housing opportunities create challeng es regarding public infrastructure extensions and expansions, and encroachment into agricultural land. In addition, the availability of adequate water, public infrastructure, such as wells and wastewater treatment fa cilities, and other public services and facilities can impact the feasibility of new residential development.

Environmental
Earthquake risk is high in western Riverside County (wh ich includes Wildomar), due to the presence of two of California’s most active faults, the San Andreas and San Jacinto Faults. Environmental constraints were considered when determining the realistic capacity for sites listed in Table HNA-23. 262

HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT

Infrastructure
Wildomar Southwestern Riverside County – The Southwest Riverside County Analysis Area encompasses the cities of Wildomar, Lake Elsinore, Murrieta, and Temecula. Significant unincorporated areas include Temescal Canyon, El Cerrito, and French Valley.

Primary water and sewer providers include Eastern Municipal Water District (EMWD), Western Municipal Water District (WMWD), Rancho California Water Dist rict, Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District (EVMWD), and Lee Lake Water District. Both EM WD and WMWD comply with the California Water Conservation Council and best management practices. Within this area, WMWD provides only water services and does not operate a sewer treatment plant or sewer collection facilities. All of the service districts stated that they have adequate current capacity to meet demand and adequate capacity to expand to meet projected development. The current facilities and/or infrastructure are reported to be in good operating condition.

Therefore, it is determined that the City has enough capacity to meet the 2021-2029 regional housing need.

To comply with SB 1087, the City will immediately forward its adopted Housing Element to its water and wastewater provider (EVMWD) so they can grant priority for service allocations to proposed developments that include units affordable to lower-income households.

Senate Bill 244
SB 244 requires cities and counties, prior to adoption of the Housing Element, to address the infrastructure needs of disadvantaged unincorporated communities outs ide the city’s limits but within the city’s planning area. Because the city’s planning area does not contain any unincorporated areas, no such conditions exist. 263

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF WILDOMAR, CALIFORNIA,

DECLARING ITS INTENTION TO ANNEX TERRITORY TO COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT NO. 2022-1 (SERVICES), OF THE CITY OF WILDOMAR, ADOPTING A MAP OF THE AREA PROPOSED TO BE ANNEXED (ANNEXATION NO. 10) AND AUTHORIZING

THE LEVY OF SPECIAL TAXES THEREIN
SUMMARY:

The resolution of intention will begin the proceedings for the annexation of Faith Bible Church into the Community Facilities District No. 2022-1 for Maintenance Services and will authorize the levying of special taxes on parcels of the taxable property to cover the costs associated with the maintenance of public improvements.

BACKGROUND:

On June 8, 2022 the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2022-30 establishing Community Facilities District No. 2022-1 (Services) of the City of Wildomar (the "CFD No. 2022-1" or "District") and authorizing the levying of special taxes on parcels of taxable property for the purpose of providing certain services which are necessary to meet increased demands placed upon the City.

The owner, Faith Bible Murrieta Church, of LLA 2020-008 containing 20.20 gross acres within the City, has requested that the City annex this territory into CFD No. 2022-1 (Services) to cover the costs associated with the maintenance of public improvements. The improvements 266
proposed to be maintained include items such as landscaping, lighting, street maintenance, and drainage.

The landowner has advised the City that it desires the area described in Exhibit A of the Resolution of Intention to be annexed into CFD No. 2022-1 and that a rate and method of apportionment of special tax to be levied therein be established.

DISCUSSION:

The area proposed within Annexation No. 10 will encompass 20.20 acres to include a sanctuary building, with a FY 2023-24 maximum annual tax of $684 per acre, per year. The property proposed to be annexed into CFD No. 2022-1 will be included in Tax Zone 10. This tax rate includes a Maximum Special Tax A of $251 per acre per year for maintenance services of public facilities and a Special Tax C (Contingent) of $433 per acre per year. These tax rates are proposed to escalate each year. Maximum Special Tax A will increase by the greater of Consumer Price Index (CPI) or 2% and Special Tax C will increase by the greater of CPI or 2%, all not to exceed 6%. Faith Bible Murrieta Church has agreed to the annexation into the CFD and submitted a "Consent and Waiver" form on file in the City Clerk's Office, to initiate and conduct proceedings pursuant to the Mello-Roos Act of 1982, requesting the annexation of property to CFD No. 2022-1 (Services) and consenting to the shortening of election time requirements, waiving analysis and arguments, and waiving all notice requirements relating to conduct the election.

The next step to annex the property to CFD No. 2022-1 is to publish a notice of public hearing of the proposed annexation as required by the Mello-Roos Act. A public hearing on the matter will take place on May 8, 2024, and at that time the Council will formally consider approval of Annexation No. 10.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The projected levy for FY 2023-24 is $5,067 for the first year of Special Tax A maintenance services and Special Tax C, if needed, will generate $8,742.

These levies are intended to
offset the City's future costs to maintain the new public improvements. Costs associated with the processing of this annexation are covered by developer fees and deposits. There is no impact to the General Fund.

SUBJECT:

Grading Agreement for Wildomar Commerce Center
SUBMITTED BY:

Matt Kramer
PREPARED BY:

Ninette Eva

ACTION:

Authorize the City Manager to execute the Mass Grading Agreement with White Sable, LLC and Wildomar One, LLC (Developer).

SUMMARY:

The Developer is required to enter into a grading agreement to complete grading activities.

The agreement identifies the Developer's obligations to the City in performing and completing the grading construction and provides the City with a bond to secure the grading activities for the project.

BACKGROUND:

Wildomar Commerce Center (Project) is located at the southwest corner of Elizabeth Lane and Clinton Keith Road. The proposed Project was reviewed under Substantial Conformance #22-0085. The Project is a development consisting of a 293,173 square-foot industrial/business park, including ancillary service commercial uses, which is a development that is smaller in size and intensity than the original project. The original project, Rancon Medical and Education Center (PA #13-0053) was approved for the development of 390,620 square feet of business park, general offices, medical and dental offices and commercial retail.

An aerial image of the project site and the surrounding area is provided in Attachment A.

The developer is currently processing grading plans and improvement plans with the City and anticipates beginning mass grading activities soon.

DISCUSSION:

In order to complete mass grading activities, the Developer is required to enter into a Grading Agreement (Attachment B) which identifies the Developer's obligations to the City in performing and completing the grading construction. The agreement also provides the City with a bond to secure the grading activities for the project. If the Developer fails to fulfill their 315
obligations, the bond provides a mechanism for the City to ensure that the construction site is brought to a safe and acceptable condition. The bond amount is based on the Developer's engineer's grading bond estimate shown as part of Attachment B. Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute the Grading Agreement with the Developer.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There are no fiscal impacts to the City at this time. All costs related to this process are covered by developer fees and deposits.

Authorize the Public Works Director to execute a Streambed Alternation Agreement with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife for the Bundy Canyon Rd. Improvement Project, Segment 2
SUMMARY:

As part of the Bundy Canyon Rd. Improvement Project, Segment 2, the City must enter into a Streambed Alteration Agreement with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) to authorize the City to perform construction in certain environmentally sensitive areas of the Project.

BACKGROUND:

Included in the 5-Year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is the Bundy Canyon Rd.

Improvement Project, Segment 2 (Project). The Project includes the realignment and widening of Bundy Canyon Rd. between Oak Canyon Dr. and The Farm Rd. The City is currently completing the right-of-way acquisition, environmental permitting, and design for the Project to prepare it for construction

DISCUSSION:

The design of the Project includes construction in environmentally sensitive areas that require regulatory permits from various regulatory agencies including the State Water Quality Control Board (SWQCB), the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW), and the US Army Corp of Engineers (USACOE). The City's consultant has been working with these regulatory agencies to obtain the necessary permits to authorize the Project construction to occur in the environmentally sensitive areas.

331
The CDFW requires the City to execute a Streambed Alteration Agreement (Agreement) as part of the permit issuance process. The Agreement establishes the measures that must be taken to protect fish and wildlife resources, avoidance and minimization measures, compensatory measures, and reporting measures. A copy of the Agreement is included as Attachment A. Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the Public Works Director to execute the Agreement.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funds for the permitting process are included in the existing budget for the Project (CIP 026- 1). Funding is currently budgeted from the Transportation Uniform Mitigation Fee (TUMF) fund account (Fund 503).

This Agreement will require off-site compensatory mitigation, which will require the City to purchase credits from mitigation banks. Mitigation credit costs have not been estimated at this time but will be presented to City Council at a later time when the mitigation bank agreements are brought forward to the City Council for approval. Any necessary budget amendment requests for the mitigation credits will be presented to the City Council at that time.
