Chair Castro-Ramirez opened the public hearing. Arturo Reyes, 11149 Carson Avenue, Lynwood, CA is an employee of Mariscos Paisas who spoke in supports. Mr. Reyes stated Sheriff Captain Roller will not meet with him regarding the security plan, staff had said the Sheriff denied the security plan without comments, the Public Works Department is uncooperative, staff had supported the security plan, staff had given the applicant the runaround, Public Works went beyond the scope of the project and added conditions and he requested approval. Vice Chair West inquired about Page 13 on the security plan as to why he opposed staff's recommendation to install a fence around the properly, recommended a security guard during all business hours and was concerned that Public Works had added conditions. Mr. Reyes said the fence would look bad and he requested a short hedge, requested one security guard during peak hours from 4pm to closing, and thought the added conditions were unfair. Chair Castro-Ramirez commented a large number of residents had spoken in opposition at the first hearing, alcohol would be served within 100 feet of residences, the applicant opposed conditions and inquired if a security guard was on duty presently.

Jorge Ramirez, 11318 Gertrude Avenue spoke in opposition stating the Planning Commission should support staff and Sheriff recommendations as they are the professionals. Arturo Reyes spoke in rebuttal stating the property owner Manuel Simental has been a Lynwood business owner for many years, helps charities and non-profit organizations, gives jobs to gang members and can't control the area. Chair Castro-Ramirez closed the public hearing. Vice Chair West inquired why the Sheriff was not present, requested that the Sheriff work with the applicant, is disappointed the Sheriff is not. helping, is concerned with conditions after the fact and the Planning Commission has previously approved alcohol licenses for restaurants.

Commissioner Araujo commented most people who drink don't abuse alcohol, many people like a beer with dinner, suggested giving. the applicant temporary approval. Commissioner Enciso supports the application subject to conditions and inquired why the Sheriff would not work with the applicant. Chair Castro-Ramirez stated the Planning Commission established conditions of approval at the first hearing, the applicant has not complied, applicant has missed meeting, the applicant was reluctant to submit a security plan and the applicant has attempted to negotiate conditions. Commissioner Manlapaz inquired if the applicant was present. Property and business owner Manuel Simental acknowledge he was present. Commissioner Younger commented that the Planning Commission clearly supported staff recommendation on conditions of approval and the applicant wants to negotiate. Vice Chair West commented that staff added conditions after the first hearing and that was not fair. Director of Development Services Taylor stated eight (8) key conditions of approval were recommended by staff and supported by the Planning Commission. The applicant has attempted to avoid five of those eight conditions. Mr. Taylor responded to comments by Arturo Reyes that staff has been very helpful but the applicant has either not showed or not cooperated. Mr. Taylor stated the Sheriff works for the City and not the applicant and the applicant must submit a decent security plan as it is not the Sheriff's duty to devise a security plan for the applicant.

Mr. Taylor stated the Sheriff costs about $200 per hour and staff does not have the authority to request the sheriff work with the applicant to devise a security plan and that the sheriff role is to review the plan. Vice Chair West commented that the fence should be reduced in height, the Sheriff should provide comments and be present, the applicant must control his business and he is concerned about the shootings. Commissioner Enciso suggested approving the applications with conditions and a time limit to comply. Vice Chair West agreed to approve the application with conditions, time limits like other CUP's the Planning Commission has approved. Chair Castro-Ramirez disagreed stating fifteen families spoke in opposition to the business and the applicant has not complied with conditions. Commissioner Araujo stated cruisers in the area cause many of the problems, not the business and made a motion to approve. Commissioner Enciso seconded the motion with time limit to complete all conditions within two months.

Attachments Draft Housing Element DRAFT Housing Element CITY OF LYNWOOD F90USlNG ELE'MENT' CHAPTER 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The 1998-2005 Housing Element provides for the identification and analysis of existing and projected housing needs and articulates the City's official policies for the preservation, conservation, improvement, and production of housing within the City of Lynwood. A. BACKGROUND Section 65302(c) of the California Government Code requires every city and county to adopt a~Housing Element as a component to the General Plan.State law requires the Housing Element provide "an identification ;and analysis of existing and projected housing needs and a statement of ' goals, policies, quantified objectives, and scheduled programs for the preservation, improvement, and development of housing." State law mandates the Housing Element "shall identify adequate sites for housing, including rental housing, factory-built housing, and mobile homes, and shall make adequate provision for the existing and projected needs of all economic segments of the community." B. PURPOSE AND CONTENT The Housing Element for the 1998-2005 Planning period has been prepared in compliance with State Housing Element law. It examines the City of Lynwood's housing needs as they exist today, and projects future housing needs. It sets forth statements of community goals, objectives and policies concerning those needs, and it includes a housing program that responds to current and future needs within the limitations posed by available resources. The housing program details a 7~h-year schedule of Ictions to achieve its goals and objectives. Upon its adoption by the Lynwood City Council, this updated Housing Element will serve as a comprehensive statement of the Citys housing policies and as a specific guide for program actions to be taken in support of thosepolicies. Pnnw 1_t CITY Of LYNWOOD HOUSING ELEMENT State law recognizes that housing needs may exceed available resources and, therefore, does not require that the City's quantified objectives be identical to the identified housing needs. This recognition of limitations is critical during this period of uncertainties in both the public and private sectors. Fiscal resources at all governmental levels are limited and uncertain and the private marketplace is undergoing substantial change. As a result, the methods for achieving the City of Lynwood's objectives, or the ability to meet them at all, as stated today, may be less relevant tomorrow or a year from tomorrow. Therefore, it is intended that this housing element be reviewed annually and updated and modified not less than every 5 years in order to remain relevant and useful to decision- makers, the private sector, and the residents of the City. C. RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER ELEMENTS AND PLANS The California Government Code requires internal consistency among the various elements of a General Plan. Section 65300.5 of the Government Code states that the General Plan's various Elements shall provide an integrated and internally consistent and compatible statement of policy. City staff has reviewed the other elements of [he General Plan and has determined that this Housing Element provides consistency with [he other Elements of the General Plan. The City will maintain this consistency as future General Plan amendments are processed by evaluating proposed amendments for consistency with all elements of the General Plan. D. USE OF RELEVANT AND CURRENT DATA To properly understand housing, a complete review and analysis of the community's population characteristics and housing stock must be performed. The most current available data has been included as part of this revised Housing Element.. The 1998-2005 Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA), formulated by the California Association of Governments (SCAG), was utilized at the direction of the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD).'The RHNA is the only model prepared by SCAG that disaggregates housing needs among all economic segment s. of the community. Finally, the data collected by various sources and utilized in the updating of this Housing Element may reflect totals which are not identical. In most respects, the totals are not as significant as the trends illustrated in the data collected. However, where totals of population and housing counts were reported for the same period, they may have been adjusted to be consistent with the most valid source known. Panes 1d CITY OF LYNWOOU HOUSING ELEMEtVT E. CITIZEN PARTICIPATION This Housing Element was developed through the combined efforts of City staff, the City's Planning Commission, the City Council, and the City's consultants, Wagner & Associates, Inc. and RBF Consulting. Citizen input was received through workshops and public hearings conducted by the Planning Commission and City Council. The notices for these workshops and hearings were published in a local newspaper and prominently posted at City Hall and other public facilities. In addition, organizations that represent the interests of lower income and special needs households, or are otherwise involved in the development of affordable housing, were consulted during the preparation of this Housing Element. These organizations include the Los Angeles Housing Authority, the local task force for ending homelessness, and non-profit housing corporations, as well as for-profit developers that have been active in developing or preserving affordable housing within the City. F: REVIEW OF PREVIOUS ELEMENT When preparing State mandated updates to [he Housing Element, each local government is required td evaluate its progress toward achieving the goals contained in the previous housing element. This evaluation should include a discussion of the following: 1) the effectiveness of the housing element in the attainment of the State housing goal; 2) any analysis of the 'significant differences between what was projected and what was achieved; and 3) a description of how the goals, objectives, policies and programs of the updated element incorporate what has been learned from the results of [he previous element.

HOUSEHOLD CHARACTERISTICS Before future needs can be anticipated, current housing characteristics and trends need to be identified. This section is an analysis of household size, household growth, and income trends in the City of Lynwood. By definition a "household" consists of all [he people occupying a dwelling unit, whether or not they are related. A single person living in an apartment is a household, just as a couple with two children and an unrelated tenant living in the same dwelling unit is considered a household. Household Formation and Composition According to U.S. Census data, there were 14,432 households in Lynwood in 2000. As shdwn in Table 2-7, the number of total households in Lynwood increased by 0.6% from 1990 to 2000. In comparison to Los Angeles County and the State of California, this is a relatively small percent increase in the number of total households. The number of county-wide households increased by 4.7 % ,while California's households increased by 10.7%.

In 2000, the average household size was 4.7 persons per household and by 2006 that number grew to 4.92 persons per household. This is significantly higher than the countywide average of 3.12 persons per household. As shown in Table 2-9, over 80% of Lynwood's households were occupied by three or more persons in 2000. In addition, approximately 48 % of the total housing units were occupied by 5 or more persons. Of those households, approximately 55% own their home and 45 % are renters.

Jobs to Housing Balance An imbalance between the location of housing and the location of jobs is an indicator of housing affordabilityand local job availability. One way of determining if Lynwood's households commute out of the City to work is looking at the jobs to household balance. The jobs to housing balance is the number of jobs in Lynwood divided by the number of households. In 2000, Lynwood had a relatively high jobs-housing balance with 1.63 jobs to every household in the City.

Household Income The Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) develops an annual median family income (MFI) for the purpose of determining eligibility for certain housing programs. According to HUD, the 2000 HUD MFI for Los Angeles County $52,100. As part of this Housing Element, the 2000 HUD MFI is used to assist in calculating housing needs during the planning period. In determining guidelines for housing affordability, the State of California uses the following income categories: • Very-Low Income -Less than 50 % of the median income; • Low-income -Between 51 % and 80% of the median income; • Moderate-income - Between 81 % and 120% of the median income, and; • Above-moderate income -Greater than 120% of the median income.

A low vacancy rate suggests that households may have difficulty finding housing within their price range, where as a high vacancy rate indicates that eithtrr the units available are undesirable or there is an oversupply of housing units. The availability of vacant housing units provides households with choices in the type and price of a unit that accommodates their specific needs. Low vacancy rates can result in higher prices and limit households in finding adequate housing. It may also contribute to overcrowding. A vacancy rate of 5 % is considered normal enough to minimize prices pressure on rents. As shown in Table 2-19, 3.9 % of Lynwood's housing units were vacant at the time of the 2000 U.S. Census. This vacancy rate is lower than the County as a whole with a 4.2 % vacancy rate.

Age is one way to measure housing stock conditions and a factor in determining the need for rehabilitation. Without proper maintenance housing units deteriorate over time. Thus units that are older are more likely to need major repairs and rehabilitation. In addition, older housing units may not be built to current fire standards and building codes. In general, housing over 30 years are more likely to experience deferred maintenance issues and may need minor repairs. Housing over 50 years old is considered aged and are more likely to need major repairs. In Lynwood, approximately 76.9% of housing units were built prior to 1970 and 37.1 % were built prior to 1950. This indicates that a considerable amount of the City's current housing is at an age that typically requires maintenance.

The fourmajor "needs" categories considered in this~element include: • Housingneeds resulting from population growth, both in the City and the surrounding region; • Housing needs resulting from overcrowding; • Housing needs that result when households are paying more than they can afford for housing; and, .• Housing needs of "special needs groups" such as elderly, large families, female-headed households, households with a disabled - person, and the homeless. A. REGIONAL HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT California's Housing Element law requires that each city and county develop local housing programs designed to meet its "fair share" of existing and future housing needs for all income groups, as determined by the jurisdiction's Council of Governments, when preparing the state- mandated Housing Element of its General Plan. This "fair share" allocation concept seeks to ensure that each jurisdiction accepts responsibility for the housing needs of not only its resident population, but also for those households who might reasonably be expected to reside within the jurisdiction, particularly lower income households. This assumes the availability of a variety and choice of housing accommodations appropriate to their needs. The City of Lynwood is a member government of the Southern California Association of Page CITY OF LYNWOOD HOUSING ELEMENT Governments (SCAG), which prepared a Regional Nousing Needs Assessment (RHNA) in 1999 that quantifies the existing and growth needs for housing in Lynwood. Existing Needs The portion of the RHNA dealing with existing housing needs addresses two conditions that can create housing demand: overpayment and overcrowding. a. Households Overpaying for Housing A household is considered to be overpaying for housing when more than 30% of the household's gross income goes toward paying for shelter. A high cost of housing eventually causes fixed-income, elderly, and lower income families to use a disproportionate percentage of their income for housing. This may cause a series of related financial problems which may result in a deterioration of housing stock, because costs associated with home maintenance must be sacrificed for more immediate needs (e.g. food, clothing, medical care, and utilities). It may also result in the selection of inappropriately sized housing units that do not meet the space or amenity needs of [he household. Table 3-1, based on data from the 1999SCAG RHNA, shows the number and percentage of owners and renters in four income groups who experience overpayment.

In this category, 76.8% households are overpaying for housing. Among Very- Low Income households that own their housing, 55.4% experience overpayment. This means that 692% of all Very-Law Income households report overpayment problems. In the income categories above Very-Low Income, renter households experience lower percentages of overpayment than owner households. For instance, 23.4% of Low-income renter households report Page CITY OF LYNWOOD HOUSING ELEMENT overpayment problems, compared to 56.8% of Low Income owner households. In the households earning 80% to 95% of median income, 10.5% of renter households and 40% of owner households report overpayment problems. Overall, 47.4% of renter households experience overpayment, compared to 39.1 % of owner households. b. Overcrowding In response to higher housing prices, lower-income households are often forced to accept smaller housing units, which may result in overcrowding. Overcrowding places a strain on housing units and the delivery of public services, eventually contributing to the deterioration of the housing stock and neighborhoods. A household is considered overcrowded when the number of people exceeds the number of rooms in the housing unit. Overcrowding is often reflective of one of three conditions: 1) a familyor household is living in a dwelling that is loo small; 2) a family chooses to house extended family members (i.e., grandparents or grown children and their families living with parents, called "doubling"); or 3) a family is renting living space to non-family members.

In every income category, renter households experience higher rates of overcrowding than owner households. Rates of overcrowding in renter households increase from 51.9% of very-low income households, to 54.8% of low-income households, to 63.9% of households earning 80-95% of area median income. In renter households earning over 95% of area median income, 37.7% experience overcrowding. Overall, 51.7% of renter households experience overcrowding, and 37.6% of owner households. 2. 1998-2005 Growth Needs + The fair share allocafion process begins with the State Department of Finance's projection of total statewide housing demand, which is then apportioned by the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) among each of the State's official regions. The Page 3-3 CITY OF LYNWOOD HOUSING ELEMENT regions are represented by an agency typically termed a Council of Governments, or COG. In the six county Southern California region, which includes Orange, Los Angeles, Riverside, San Bernardino, Ventura, and Imperial Counties, the agency responsible for assigning these fair share targets to each jurisdiction is SCAG. In this RHNA cycle, SCAG coordinated with the Gateway Cities COG, the subregional council for southeast Los Angeles County jurisdictions.- The final fair share allocations were approved by SCAG in November of 2000. In the process of making jurisdiction-specific allocations, SCAG and the subregional Councils of Governments must consider a variety of factors, including market demand for housing, employment opportunities, commuting patterns, and the availability of suitable sites and public facilities. A local jurisdiction's "fair share" of regional housing need is the number of additional dwelling units needed to accommodate the anticipated growth in the number of households, to replace expected demolitions and conversion of housing units to non-housing uses, and to achieve a future vacancy rate that allows for the healthy functioning of the housing market. Total housing need is then allocated to four income categories used in Federal and State programs: Very-Low, Low, Moderate, and Above- Moderate Income, defined operationally as earning up to 50%, 51% to 80%, 81% to 120%, and more than 120% of the Los Angeles-Long Beach Primary Metropolitan Statistical Area (PMSA) median income, respectively. The allocations are further adjusted to avoid an over- concentration of lower income households in any one jurisdiction. ,Each jurisdiction's future housing need is estimated in terms of four factors: (1) the number of units needed to accommodate forecasted household growth; (2) the number of units needed to replace demolitions due to attrition in the housing stock (i.e., fire damage, obsolescence, redevelopment and conversions to non-housing uses); (3) maintaining an ideal vacancy rate for awell-functioning housing market; and (4) an adjustment to avoid an over-concentration of lower-income households in any one jurisdiction. As shown in Table 3-3, Lynwood's total fair share allocation is 979 new housing units.

SPECIAL NEEDS GROUPS Elderly Persons Many elderly have special housing needs due to fixed incomes and limited mobility. Housing construction and location are important considerations for this population. The elderly often require ramps, handrails, and lower cupboards and counters to allow greater access and mobility. They also may desire special security devices for their homes to allow greater self-protection. To compensate for limited mobility, their housing should be located within easy walking distance of [he services that meet their needs, such as medical or shopping facilities, or should be served by public transit. The special needs of the elderly can be summarized in the following: • Income -The elderly population typically lives on fixed incomes; • Household Composition - Eldedy women often live alone; • Transportation -The elderly population is more likely to utilize public transportation; and, • Health Care -The elderly have a greater need for health care. The median age in the SCAG region was 32.3 in 2000, and is projected to increase to 36.1 by 2030. Over the next 25 years, SCAG is projecting a growth in the 65 and other age group. Approximately one in six people in the region is expected to be a senior citizen compared to one in ten in 2004.' As shown in Table 3-4, 1,154 elderly householders reside in Lynwood, which is 8.0% of the total households. Of the 1,154 senior households, 320 were renters (4.2%) and 834 were owners (12.3%). Further, 1.0% (147) households of the householders over the age of 65 were under the poverty level in 1999. ~ Southern California Assoclatlon of Governments, Community Development Division. 2004 Regional Transportation PIaN GrovAh Visicn: Soao-economic Forepsl Report.

According to 2000 U.S. Census data 5.9% of Lynwood's 15- to 64-year-olds and 5.8% of elderly men live alone, while 17.1 % of elderly women live alone. Table 3-5 shows the extent of disabilities experienced by the elderly population, which may limit their ability to live independently. An individual with a "going outside the home disability" has a condition lasting 6 months or more that makes it difficult to go outside the home alone to shop or visit a doctor's office. An individual with a "self-care disability' has a condition lasting 6 months or more that makes it difficult to dress, bathe, or get around inside the home. According to 200011. S. Census data, approximately a quarter (25.9%) of the elderly population in Lynwood has at least one of these types of disability. Among elderly women, 30.6% are ,reported to have at least one of these types of disability. Elderly men and women experience a "going outside the home" disability at similar rates: 11.8% and 11.3%, respectively. Self-care disabilities occur in elderly women at a rate of 19.3% and in elderly men at a rate of 6.3%. In both groups, self-care disabilities are accompanied by at least one other kind of disability.

As shown in Table 3-6, a there are a total of 3,739 large owner-occupied households and 3,115 large renter-occupied households. Census data also shows that 99.8% of large households are family households, containing at least two people related by birth, marriage, or adoption.

These large households tend to reside in housingstructures with only one unit, which may be attached or separate. Census data shows that 75% of households with Flve or more people reside in single-unit housing structures. In particular, 97% of large owner-occupied households live in single-unit housing structures or mobile homes. Among renters, 49% of large households reside in single-unit housing structures or mobile homes, while 51 % are found in structures with two or more housing units. 3. Female-Headed Households Female-headed households are included as a special needs group because they typically experience low rates of homeownership and low incomes. Table 3-7 shows the number and percentage of female-headed households in Lynwood [hat are living below poverty level. According to Table 3-7, 46.7% of households headed by females living with children who are related to them have incomes-below the poverty level and 39.9% of the total female-headed households live below the poverty level. By comparison, 24.0% of households headed by males with no wife present live below the poverty level, and 14.7% of households with amarried- couple family live below the poverty level..

The homeownership rates of female-headed households are displayed in Table 3-8. As shown in Appendix A, 47.1% of all households in Lynwood are owner-occupied. Female heads of households living with their own children have a homeownership rate of 19.6%. Among female heads of households not living with their own children, 50.9% are homeowners. Overall, 30.8% of female-headed households are owner-occupied.

Disabled Persons As with the elderly population, the mobility limitations of disabled persons create a demand for housing in certain locations and constructed in certain ways: Physically disabled persons often require specially designed dwellings [o permit access both into and within the unit. California Administrative Code Title 24 sets forth access and adaptability requirements for the physically handicapped. These regulations apply to public buildings (e.g., offces. stores, and motels); employee housing; factory built housing and privately Pape 3-8 CITY OF LYNWOOD HOUSING ELEMENT funded, newly constructed apartment houses containing five or more dwelling units. The regulations also require that items such as ramps, doorways, and restrooms be designed to enable free access to the handicapped. Such standards are not required in new single-family residential construction. - The disabled also have special needs with regard to location. There is typically a desire to be located near public facilities, and especially near public transportation facilities that provide service to the disabled.

Table 3-9, based on 2000 US Census data, shows the extent of the population reporting physical disabilities, self care disabilities, and "go outside the home" disabilities in Lynwood. The age group experiencing the highest rate of disability is the 65-years-and-over group, at 36.7%. Among 16-20 year olds, 5.9% have at least one of these disabilities. Among 21-64 year olds,.the rate is 6.8%. Overall, 8.4% of the population reports at least one of these disabilities. 5. Homeless Population The Los Angeles Continuum of Care (CoC) includes all of Los Angeles County except the cities of Glendale, Long Beach, and Pasadena. According to the 2005 Greater Los Angeles Homeless Count, it is estimated that there are 82,291 homeless persons in Los Angeles Continuum of Care at a given point in time and approximately 221,363 persons per year. Of the 82,291 approximately 88% were unsheltered and 12% were living in either emergency shelter or transitional housing programs at the time of the survey. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development defines chronic homelessness as an unaccompanied individual with a disabling condition who has been continually homeless for one year or more; or has experienced four or more episodes of homelessness within the past three years. It is estimated that on any given night Los Angeles CoC has a chronically homeless population of approximately 34,512 persons. Penn 1_O CITY OF LYNWOOD HOUSING ELEMENT Within the South subarea, which includes the cities of Lynwood, Compton, and Paramount, and parts of the City of Los Angeles and surrounding unincorporated areas, it is estimated that there are 6,860 homeless on one night and 14,886 homeless per year. It is believed 90 persons are in need of shelter in Lynwood on a nightly basis. 6. Farm Workers Farm workers are traditionally defined as persons whose primary income is from seasonal agricultural work. Ranching and farming once played a major role in Lynwood's economy, but according to the 2000 Census no more than 0.2% of the City residents are now employed in farming occupations. C. SUMMARY This section provides a summary of existing and future housing needs. The major findings of this section are: Overoayment: The population with the highest percentage of overpayment is the population of renter households in the very- low income category. In this category, 76.8% households are overpaying for housing. Among very-low income households that own their housing, 55.4% experience overpayment. Overall approximately 69.2% of all Very-Low Income households report overpayment problems. • Overcrowding: In every income category, renter households experience higher rates of overcrowding than owner households. Overall, 51.7% of renter households experience overcrowding, and 37.6% of owner households. Large Households: Large households-those with.five or more persons in a housing unit--constitute 47.6% of all households iri Lynwood. Female-headed Households: According to U.S. Census data, 46.7% of households headed by females living with children who are related to them have incomes below the poverty level and 39.9% of the total female-headed households live below the poverty level. By comparison, 24.0% of households headed by males with no wife present live below the poverty level, and 14.7% of households with amarried-couple family live below the poverty level. • Owner Occupied Female-headed Households: Approximately 30.8% of female-headed households are owner-occupied. Furthermore, female heads of households living with their own children have a homeownership rate of only 19.6°/. In Page 3-10 CITY OF LYNWOOD HOUSING ELEMENT comparison 47.1% of all households in Lynwood are owner- occupied.

A. MARKET CONSTRAINTS 1. Construction and Land Costs Land costs and construction cost have the most demonstrable effect on the development and feasibility of housing. As cost for materials have increased and [he limited availability of raw vacant land has minimized, the price of land and costs of construction have increased. CI7Y OF LYNWOOD HOUSING ELEMENT' Development costs are general, as there are many variables (i.e., location, access to services, school quality, etc.) that influence the costs of development. Generally, Development costs for single-family development range from $100 to $125 per square foot, $150 to $180 for townhomes and condominiums, and $200 per square foot for garden- style apartments. Stacked flats, typically found in mixed-use development with structured parking are approximately $250 per square foot. Land costs are also relative, and can range from $25,000 per multi-family unit to $150,000 per single-family unit, with the price increasing as the density increases. B. GOVERNMENTAL CONSTRAINTS Local housing elements, pursuant to the Government Code, must analyze potential and actual governmental constraints upon the maintenance, improvement, or development of housing for all income levels. The categories of constraints required in the analysis are as follows: • Land Use Controls; • Building Codes and Enforcements; • Site Improvements; • Fees and Other Exactions; ' Local Processing and Permit Procedures; • Availability of Public Financing; and State law does not imply that the above factors are actually constraints in all cities. Article 10.6, however, requires a descriptive analysis of these factors to determine if any of them act as constraints to the maintenance, improvement, or development of housing in a local community. All of the items listed above concern local regulatory factors. Besides these factors, there are some aspects of State and Federal programs, which do constrain the actions which can be feasibly implemented by local governments. Consequently, potential or actual governmental constraints include not only local, but also State of California and Federal goverhmental constraints, including Article 34 of the California Constitution, which requires a public referendum on some affordable housing developments. Chapters 208 and 218 of the Statutes of 1991 created additional exemptions to Article 34 for Low Rent Housing Projects. o~.,a a~ CITY OF LYNWOOD HOUSING ELEMENT Vacant Land The City's vacant land supply is very limited. The City currently as a limited number of vacant residential and commercially zoned parcels, primarily located within the City's commercial corridors. Although there is a limited availability of vacant sites, developer interest has been significant for development of these sites. An analysis of residential development potential of vacant land is provided in Appendix A of [his Housing Element. 2. Underutilized Land There are parcels within the City that are currently built out at lower densities than permitted by zoning. Recent developer interest and trends in land costs and new residential development concepts has indicated that reuse and redevelopment of underperforming residential and non- residential land will continue to positively influence [he availability of future residential units. Future development will require the consolidation of existing parcels and updated zoning regulations to develop single family and multi-family housing. The Redevelopment Agency has been undertaking the development of residential projects on land that was previously designated (or commercial development. 3. Environmental Constraints Environmental hazards affecting the development of housing units include seismic, flooding, high wind, and noise conditions. Residential land uses are considered the most sensitive to loud noise. Federal regulations require [hat [he impact of these and other constraints be submitted to HUD for a release of funds. 4. Availability of Sites An analysis of the General Plan maximum holding capacity based on land use densities (Table 4-1) indicates that a maximum of 16,247 units could be constructed in the City. As the majority of sites will require the use and intensification of existing sites, a thorough ahalysis of potential sites are provided in Appendix A of this Housing Element.

Site Improvements Prior to the issuance of any permit, project applicants in Lynwood are required to install streets, curbs, gutters, sidewalks, sewers, water lines, street lighting, and trees in the public right-of-way within and adjacent to the development. These facilities are then dedicated to the City, which is responsible for maintenance. Based on recent development projects, the requirement for [he construction of these off-site improvements have not been shown to be a constraint to development. The City of Lynwood provides regular analysis and programming of infrastructure needs through the annual Capital Improvement Program (CIP), which provides capital improvements for needed infrastructure improvements on a citywide basis. Sources of funds for capital projects include Federal, State, local, recreation, water and electric utility sources. Federal sources may include Community Oevelopmen[ Block Grants (approximately $2,000,000/year) and a variety of Federally-subsidized grant programs. State funds may include, but are not limited to, Arterial Highway Funds, SB 821 Grants, State Gas Tax, State Demonstration Projects, and State Park Bonds. Local funds may include, but are not limited to, the General Fund, sale of land, park development fees, Redevelopment Agency revenues and other local funds. Water and electrical utility funds may include construction bonds and Rule 21 Funds. Although more costly than above-ground lines, provision of these funding sources will mitigate, to the extent feasible, site improvement constraints to future development in this area of the City. 6. Building Codes and Enforcement Lynwood has adopted the Los Angeles County Building Code, which is almost identical to the Uniform Building Code. The Los Angeles County Building Code does not impose any housing standards greater than those contained in the 1999 Uniform Building Code. Building Code standards are based on minimum requirements for health and safety of residential occupants. Therefore, revisions of industry-accepted standards for health CITY OF LYNWOOD HOUSING ELEMENT and safety to reduce construction costs are not a policy of the City of Lynwood. 7. Fees and Exactions Variousfees are charged by the City of Lynwood, the County Sanitation Districts of Los Angeles County, and the Lynwood School District, for the provision of services such as environmental review, permit processing and delivery of sanitation services and water. The Sanitation Districts' connection fees are based on the type of land use and size, and range from $7,047 per multi-family dwelling unit to $1,735 per single family home. The City and County fees for permit review and processing are indicated on Table 4-2. These fees are fairly uniform and comparable to adjacent communities. They are not, therefore, considered to be a development constraint.

Local Processing and Permit Procedures The City of Lynwood processes Planning and Building applications in accordance with State Law and within the time frames specified by existing laws and are not considered a constraint to development. Multi- family development (excluding condominiums) is subject to ministerial approval, which requires only a building permit. The Ci[y Planning staff 6onducts design review, and forwards the proposal [o the Planning Commission for their review and recommendation for approval by the City Council. Planning Commission meetings are once per month. If a proposal does not include an addition to the floor area, the plan can be CITY OF LYNV/OOD HOUSING ELEMENT approved by the Development Services Department Typically, plot plan review requires 1-2 weeks, and the building department plan check requires 2-3 weeks. 9. Land Use Controls Residential development standards play a role in the feasibility of housing. The City of Lynwood Zoning Code provides development standards for all types of residential development. The City does not perceive that any of these standards limit the provision of housing within the city. The codes requirements typically address health, safety, and community welfare considerations. Table 4-3 provides a summary of development standards for residential uses.

Discretionary review often plays a role in the feasibility of development. When Conditional Use Permits are required for residential uses, certain risk factors are introduced to the development community. To address this issue, the City has developed a Site Plan Review process to substantially limit the need for conditional permits in residential development.

Long Beach Boulevard Sgecific Plan In 2006, the City of Lynwood adopted the Long Beach Boulevard Specific Plan. The Specific Plan encompasses approximately 139 acres adjacent to Long Beach Boulevard, a primary nonfVSOUth corridor. The Specific Plan seeks to revitalize the corridor through flexible land use regulations [hat encourage mixed use and housing development. The Specific Plan allows for residential development up to 30 dwelling units per acre in all land use districts of the Specific Plan.

HOUSING RESOURCES Vacant and Underutilized Land There is very little vacant land remaining in the City of Lynwood zoned for residential use. New construction over the Iasi decade in the City of Lynwood has effectively exhausted the majority of vacant and underutilized land. Therefore, future development of housing will occur on reutilized sites, second unit development, infill and residential development on sitespreviously non-residential. An evafuafion of vacant sites, pursuant to AB 3248 is provided, in Appendix A of this Housing Element. 2. New Housing Supply The City of Lynwood has seen a number of infill residential development occur within existing established neighborhoods. Since the beginning of the Housing Element planning period, approximately 595 residential units have been constructed in the City. The ma}ority of these developments consist of modest single-family residentialdevelopments and second units. A summary of all recently approved residential projects is provided in Appendix B of this Housing Element. 4-8 CITY OF LYNWOOD HOUSING ELEMENT Due to the acquisitions necessary for the development of the I-105 Freeway, traversing through the middle portion of the City, a number of remnant parcels have provided residential development opportunities on parcels averaging less than 5,000 square feet. Most of these surplus parcels have been developed or are in the process of being developed. Through the establishment of the Long Beach Boulevard Specific Plan, Redevelopment Agency sponsored projects and various requests for rezoning by private developers, a significant amount of residential development opportunities have arisen. Recent trends toward mixed use development and more modest size residential units have provided a significant level of interest in higher-intensity residential uses. Examples of recent projects approved or proceeding through the entitlement process are shown in Table 4-7. Ta61e 4-7 Recent Deveto ment Pio'ects Fernwood Estates The Redevelopment Agency has approved the development of 43 single-family units on agency- owned property located adjacent the I-105 Freeway. The units will be multi-story and will be offered in both three and four bedrooms options. Seven (7) of the units will be targeted for families of low and moderate income (80% if County median income) and the remaining units will be sold at market rate (120% of An tt-acre site targeted for up to 720 single-family detached units within a gated setting, the design and layout for this project is in the preliminary stages and will incorporate open space within the project. The project will consist of two-story dwellings and will be available in three and tour bedroom options. Each unit will have a two-car garage with ample landscaping. The density factor in this development will remain low at approximately nine to ten units to Asingle-family housing development of 39 units.

A Dratt ENA has been provided to Plaza Mexico and the project is part of the ongoing Redevelopment Staft and Plaza Mexico Expansion Team meetings. 3. Regulatory Resources a. Second Dwelling Units The City of Lynwood permits the development of second units on single- family lots, subject to Site Plan Review. Site Plan Review is intended to provide assurance that the second unit is compatible in design with the primary dwelling unit on the site, and is considered an "over the counter" approval. Second units have a maximum square footage of 1,200 square feet and are permitted on lots with minimum area of 6,220 square feet. b. Transitional Housing and Emergency Shelters Pursuant to Chapter 25 of the Lynwood Municipal Code, homeless/transitional shelters may be considered for location in the Multi- family Residential (R-3) Zone and the Manufacturing (M) Zone subject to a Conditional Use Permit. The purpose of the Conditional Permit review is to determine that the characteristics of these uses are not incompatible with the type of uses located in surrounding areas. The City of Lynwood believes this general requirement does not have a demonstrable negative impact on the development or cost of providing facilities. To demonstrate this, [he following findings must be made to grant a Conditional Use Permit for homeless and transitional facilities: • The proposed conditional use is consistent with the General Plan; • The nature, condition, and development of adjacent uses; • Buildings, and structures have been considered, and that the use will not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to these adjacent uses, buildings, or structures; • The site for the proposed conditional use is of adequate size and shape to accommodate the use and buildings proposed; • The proposed conditional use complies with all applicable development standards of the zoning district; and • The proposed conditional use observes the spirit and intent of the zoning code. D....n A_Y 1 CITY OF LYNWOOD HOUSING ELEMENT c. Residential Density Bonus On March 5, 2005, the City of Lynwood adopted a Residential Density Bonus Ordinance intended to provide incentives for the production of _ housing for very low, lower income, and senior households in accordance with sections 659Y 5 and 65917 of [he California Government Code. The Ciry may grant a density bonus a minimum of 25 percent, or a density bonus with additional incentives to an applicant or developer of a housing development, who agrees to provide the following: • At least twenty percent of the total units of the housing development as target units affordable to lower income households; or • At least ten percent of the total units of the housing development as target units affordable to very low income households; or • Senior citizen housing. In addition, the City can provide a density bonus with additional incentives for qualified housing development, upon the written request of a developer, unless the city determines that the additional incentives are not necessary to make the housing development economically feasible and to accommodate a density bonus. The need for incentives will vary for different housing development. Therefore, the allocation of additional incentives shall be determined on a case by case basis and may include, but are not limited to, any of the following: . • A reduction of site development standards or a modification of zoning code or architectural design requirements which exceed the minimum building standards of the California Health and Safety Code. These may include, but are not limited to the following: o Reduced minimum lot sizes and/ or dimensions o Reduced minimum lot setbacks o Reduced minimum outdoor and/or private outdoor living area o Increased maximum lot coverage o Increased maximum building height and/or stories o Reduced on-site parking standards, including the number or size of spaces and garage requirements o Reduced minimum building separation requirements o Reduced street standards (i.e. minimum street widths) o Other additional incentives Paae 4-17 CITY OF LYNWOOD FIOUSIIVG ELEMENT • Allow the housing development to include nonresidential uses and/or allow the housing development within a nonresidential zone • Other regulatory incentives or concession proposed by the developer or the city which result in identifiable cost reductions or avoidance • A density bonus of more than twenty-five percent • Waived, reduced, or deferred planning, plan check, construction permit, and/ or development impact fees (i.e capital facilities, park, or traffic fees) • Direct financial aid (i.e. redevelopment set-aside, community development block gran[ funding) in the form of a loan or a grant to subsidize or provide low interest financing for an on or off site improvement, land or construction costs. The city may also offer an equivalent financial incentive in lieu of granting a density bonus and additional incentives. d. Inclusionary Zoning Regulations The purpose of the Inclusionary Zoning Regulations is [o enhance the .public welfare and assure that further housing development contributes to the attainment of the city's housing goals by increasing the production of residential units affordable by households of very-low, low, and moderate income. The regulation, adopted in March of 2005, requires all new residential development projects within Redevelopment Project Area A of seven or more units to construct fifteen percent of the total number of dwelling units within the development as affordable units. Units must be made available to Moderate, Low and Very Low income households based on prescribed standards provided in Article 24 of the Municipal Code. 4. Financial Resources The City of Lynwood, like all other cities, is limited in its ability to provide housing programs based upon the availability of funding from outside sources. Interest rates are determined by national policies and economic conditions. Much has been done on the national level to increase the level of home ownership and continue the support of affordable housing through the on-going tax credit operated by the State of California. Federal and State programs, which have flourished in the past, are subject to annual fluctuations based upon decisions, which are of limited control by the City. Furthermore, State initiatives that limit City revenues have been subject to substantial changes in recent years. The City itilizes CDBG and HOME funds for housing activities. Table 4-8 provides a summary of available funds for housing.

City of Lynwood Consolidated Plan The City of Lynwood administers its Consolidated Plan, Strategic Plan, and Annual Aciion Plan. The Consolidated Plan describes the City's plans for the use and distribution and federal funds under HUD's formula rant programs. The Consolidated Plan 2006-2010 entitlements are estimated at $5,571,180. Of these funds, a percentage of funding is allocated to housing related activities including Section 108 Loan repayments, code enforcement, fair housing, program administration, Panty 4-15 CITY Of- LYNWOOD HOUSING ELEMENT CHDO set-aside, rehab, acquisition and first time homebuyer assistance. The Consolidate Plan provides the City's primary financial assistance for housing programs d. County of Los Angeles Consolidated Plan The County addresses regional needs by conducting activities to meet the Couniy's Consolidated Plan goals of providing housing production and acquisition, housing preservation and improvement, housing assistance, removal of constraints, economic development, public services, homeless activities, improvements to public works and neighborhood facilities, and assisting people with special needs. A variety of strategies and programs to address these goals are discussed in the County Housing and Community Development Plan (HCDP). These strategies are summarized as follows: e. County Housing Production arid Acquisition Within the goal of housing and production and acquisition, our strategies include: • Expanding the available supply of affordable rental housing; • Strengthening relationships with the non-profit housing department sector to increase [he supply of affordable housing; • Increasing home ownership opportunities; • Expanding the supply of affordable housing through neighborhood revitalization efforts; • Expanding the available supply of housing for the homeless and those persons with identified special needs. County Housing Preservation and Improvement The strategies for housing preservation and improvement include: Preserving existing housing units by rehabilitating older, substandard housing that is affordable to lower-income housing; • Rehabilitating existing rental structures to continue their use in the provision of affordable housing; • Ensuring continued affordability of publicly assisted, "at-risk" lower-income housing; and, CITY OF LYIVWOOD MOUSING ELEMENT • Preventing neighborhood deterioration through the linkage of code compliance and rehabilitation. g. County Housing Assistance Strategies included under housing assistance are: • Utilizing rent subsidy programs; • Providing a continuum of assistance from the prevention of homelessness to a transition into home ownership; • Providing coordination of special needs assistance; and, • Providing emergency housing and financial assistance for groups with special needs. h. County Programs to Minimize Barriers to Affordable Housing The County plans to minimize barriers to affordable housing by utilizing the following strategies: • Developing procedures that do not unduly constrain, but rather encourage, the development of affordable housing; • Encouraging the production of a housing supply that ranges broadly enough in price and rent to enable all households to gain housing, regardless of income; • Securing adequate affordable housing and ensuring that housing is accessible to all persons, whether discrimination is overt or the subtle product of government regulation; • Identifying a number of action areas that will be investigated, provided adequate funding is available in light of the County's fiscal crisis; • Proposing a number of actions to promote affordable housing and provide equal access. i. County Homeless Activities/Supportive Services Certain segments of the population such as the homeless, the "at-risk° of becoming homeless population, elderly, large families, female-headed households, and the disabled have specific needs which must be addressed through the provision of supportive services. The County addresses these needs through a varie[yof programs listed in the HCDP. j. County Social/Public Services Paae 447 Ct7Y OF LYNWOOO liOUSIIVG ELEfVIENT Populations with special needs, such as the elderly, large families, female-headed households and the disabled also require supportive services. County departments network with a variety of non-profit organizations (including housing providers), participating cities, and private consultants to provide a wide variety of social/public services including: child-care, youth programs, senior citizen services, veterans services, programs for the disabled, battered spouses and children, chronically mentally disabled, drug addicts, alcoholics, runaway teens, and persons living with HIV/AIDS. The identification of priority needs serves to provide direction in focusing goals, objectives, and strategies into actual programs and projects- k. County Priority Housing Development Needs The CDC's Housing Development's homebuyer and other grant programs have attempted to achieve an equitable distribution of program resources throughout the county. One of the top priorities in meeting the housing needs of the county's low- and moderate-income residents is to expand the supply of housing through new construction and the acquisition of land for new construction. Geographic location frequently determines focus of activities. Some housing activities, such as a referral service for persons living with HIV/AIDS, would need to be conducted on a county-wide basis, while a site for permanent service-enhanced housing for this client group would -be located in the area of greatest need. I, County Priority Housing Preservation Needs The overlying priority for housing preservation programs is to provide most of the available resources to the low- and moderate-income residents in designated areas throughout [he County. The highest priority is to provide funds in the form of low-interest and deferred loans, grants, and rental rehabilitation loans to the residents of Neighborhood Improvement Strategy areas located in low- and moderate-income areas. m: County Priority Homeless Needs The top priority in utilizing resources to meet homeless needs is to develop a "continuum of care" approach, which attempts [o solve homelessness by addressing the various causes of homelessness: lack of supportservices and affordable housing and insufficient income. The County's continuum of care strategy includes the vital components of homeless prevention, outreach assessment, emergency shelter, transitional housing, permanent housing and supportive housing. Several funding sources including Homeless Initiative and Emergency Shelter Grant funds have been targeted for the development of each of these components. n. County Public Housing Improvement Efforts Desna d-1 A CITY OF LYNWOOD ®~.5~~~ ELf~~fe~~ High quality public housing is the result of effective management and enduring maintenance efforts. The County of Los Angeles endeavors to maintain the high quality of its public. housing stock through a management strategy that emphasizes staff development, goal setting in accordance with established objectives, audit responsiveness, and increased efficiency through automation. Efforts to improve the management and operation of public housing include ongoing staff training and education at HUD and housing industry seminars. Staff is also provided with reading materials [o keep current on trends and new information in the public housing field. Management of public housing in the County is. enhanced through goal setting that adheres to overall objectives that encourage: Self-sufficiency for residents through programs that encourage independent living; Development of a work environment that fosters creativity, productivity, and maximization of employee potential through employee training, development and promotional opportunities; and, Participatory management built upon a positive regard for people and respect for the contribution of each employee. In an effort to improve overall operational efficiency, the CDC has recently automated its public housing operation which allows the decentralization of all financial processing, the tracking of annual reexaminations and inspections, and the, Public Housing and Management Assessment Program (PHMAP) reports. The system allows interface with a tenant accounting system and also permits tracking of unit inventory, inspections, and work orders. The system also provides information on the demographics of the resident population, including age, ethnicity, and income. The near-term goal is to ensure that the new automation system is utilized to its fullest capacity in the operation of the County's public housing. o. County Lead-Based Paint Strategies The County has atwo-tiered approach to the evaluation and elimination of lead-based paint hazards where the problem has been determined to " be most prevalent Grant funding for the expansion of the County's lead hazard evaluation program and establishment of a lead hazard reduction program has been provided by the National Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC and P) and HUD's Otfice of Lead-Based Paint Abatement respectively. The lead hazard reduction program, known as the Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Program (CLPPP), involves outreach, screening, case management, and public education in seven targetareas. The lead hazard reduction program involves environmental testing, lead hazard education, blood-lead, testing for children, hazard reduction grants, and follow-up monitoring and testing, also in seven target areas. o...... n.~n CITY OF LVNWOOD HOUSING ELEMENT In addition to the lead-based paint outreach, assessment and abatement activities that are currently taking place in existing housing programs, the County also conducts housing inspections to determine if various types of housing are safe, sanitary and fit for habitation. Hotels, motels and other non-medical housing are inspected on a regular basis to ensure [hat i[ complies with health and safety standards. Emergency shelter housing is also subject to health and safety inspections before participation is allowed in the County's voucher program. Routine health and safety inspections take place in over 60,000 multiple family dwellings to ensure that units are maintained per health department requirements. p. County One-Year Action Plan The one-year Action Plan describes the specific activities that will be undertaken during the Counry's planning period to address the needs and local objectives stated in the Consolidated Plan. Specific projects that will be implemented include those to foster and maintain affordable housing, to improve public housing and expand resident initiatives, remove barriers to affordable housing, evaluate and reduce lead-based hazards, reduce the number of households below the poverty line, enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies, and provide assistance to prevent homelessness and address the needs of the homeless through a continuum of care that provides not only emergency assistance but also a means of transitioning to permanent housing and self-sufficiency. Projects that will be funded with CDBG, ESG and HOME funds are iFtcluded as a component of the one-year Action Plan. The project information forms contain individual project descriptions, location, census tract(s), funding amount, and proposed accomplishments. The one-year Action Plan also describes monitoring standards, certifications, and specific grant submission requirements for CDBG, ESG and HOME. In conclusion, the County's Consolidated Plan provides a comprehensive approach for analysis of housing and community development needs and establishes a mechanism for prioritizing needs and allocating resources based on those needs. The scope of the document has expanded the need for dialogue among the many entities involved in the various aspects of housing and community development and allows the County to develop a partnership approach among government, non-profits, for-profit organizations, business, and industry to provide assistance to those in need of affordable housing and a variety of communityservices.

The analysis primarily looks at development that could occur based upon the Lynwood General Plan and Zoning Ordinance. More specifically, this section provides an inventory of available vacant and underutilized land for residential development to accommodate the City's fair share of RHNA. State Housing Element Law mandates that a jurisdiction must show thatit has adequate sites that will be made available through appropriate zoning and development standards and with the required public services and facilities for a variety of housing types and incomes. This evaluation of adequate sites represents a planning goal and not a goal for the actual production of housing within the five-year period. The City must demonstrate that it has the capacity, or adequate sites, to accommodate the projected need for housing. The projected need for housing used for this evaluation is defined as [he City's share of the region's housing needs for 1998-2005. A. REGIONAL HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT State Housing Element Law requires that each jurisdiction, in preparing its Housing Element, develop local housing programs designed to meet its share of existing and future regional housing needs for all income groups. This requirement ensures that each jurisdiction accepts responsibility for the housing needs of. its current and anticipated future •esidents, particularly lower-income households, and plans for a variety of housing choices. CITY OF LYNWOOD H®USING ELEMENT' The State Department of Finance (DOF) is responsible for projecting the total statewide housing demand, with the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) apportioning this demand to each of the state's regions. This demand represents the number of additional units needed to accommodate the anticipated growth in the number of households, to replace expected demolitions and conversions of housing units to non-housing uses, and to achieve a future vacancy rate that allows for healthy functioning of the housing market. The Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG), the Council of Governments (COG) representing the region, in cooperation with the local jurisdictions, is tasked with the responsibility of allocating the region's projected new housing demand to each jurisdiction. The allocation is further divided into four income categories: • Very-Low Income - 0% to 50% of the median income; • Low-Income - 51% to 60 % of the median income; • Moderate-Income - 81 % to 120 % of the median income; and, • Above Moderate Income -more than 120% of the median income. This process is known as the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA), and the goals are referred to as either the RHNA goals or the "regional share" goals for new housing construction. The allocation takes into account factors such as market demand for housing, employment opportunities, the availability of suitable sites and public facilities, commuting patterns, type and tenure of housing need, and others. In determining a jurisdiction's share of new housing needs by income category, the allocation is adjusted to avoid an over-concentration of lower income households in any one jurisdiction.. A Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) prepared by SCAG in allocated housing needs for the period beginning January 1, 1998 to June 30, 2005 (a 7 Yz year period) identifiesthe City of Lynwood's share of the region's housing needs as 979 new housing units. To determine the regional housing needs for the 1998-2005 planning period, the needs are adjusted by the actual number of units constructed from January i, 1998 to the current period, or a total of 595 housing units. Exhibit A-1 provides a summary of the location of constructed units. Based upon this .adjustment, the regional housing needs for 1998-2005 is 383 housing units, with 74 % allocated for very low- and low-income households. n.,....,,,r~., a_;; Ciro or- LvNwooo f'f®USI~Ci ~L~ME/dT Insert Exhibit A-1: Map of Units Builf e~..o,.a~,.

SEIAC is untler construction. 3 Construction estimates are based on actual project constructed. Units with unknown income categories are assumetl in the Above Moderate category. 4. Summary of actual units constructed are provided in Appendix B of this Housing Element. As required by State Housing Law, the City must plan for its share of the region's new housing needs in all four income categories by identifying an adequate supply of land zoned at the appropriate density levels to accommodate each income category. The RHNA goals do not represent a requirement for actual housing production, but rather seek to ensure the City has, or plans to add, zoning capacity to accommodate new housing growth. To address the City's needs for very low- and low-income housing, Lynwood must demonstrate that it has an adequate supply of land for higher density housing (30 or more dwelling units per acre). Although zoning land for higher density development does not guarantee the construction of housing that is affordable to low- and moderate-income families, without such higher density zoning, the opportunity to use subsidies and implement affordable housing programs for such families would not exist. Capacity to Meet Regional Share Goals To enable the City of Lynwood to meeting RHNA construction goals, the city must evaluate its capacity to meeting this need with existing development capacities and credits forconstruction occurring since 1998. Lynwood Is a built out community, with minimal areas of substantial vacant land. The majority of vacant land is a result of remnant parcels from right-of-way acquisitions, and sparsely located residential and commercial lots. CITY OF LVNWOOD HOUSING ELEMENT As shown in Table A-2, the City of Lynwood Municipal Code identifies three residential land use classifications. Additionally, the Long Beach Boulevard Specific Plan will introduce an additional land use density standard of 30 du/ac, as amended. The availability of land suited to accommodate [he various income levels is based upon the allowed density.

Vacant Land Resources The City of Lynwood has very limited vacant land resources to provide opportunities for residential development. There are approximately 35 vacant parcels in the City of Lynwood. The majority of which are located within existing residential neighborhoods, or along the City's commercial corridors. All of the vacant parcels are within existing developed areas providing the necessary level of municipal services (water, sewer, etc.).

The Plaza Mexico shopping center totals approximately thirty-eight (38) acres in area and is bounded by Imperial Highway to the north, the I-105 Freeway to the south, Long Beach Boulevard to the east and State Street to the west. The property is developed with atwo-story multiple tenant retail center and one and two-story buildings totaling approximately 479,000 square feet in area housing a variety of commercial, retail, restaurant and office uses. The property in which the proposed structure would be developed is rectangular in shape and totals 156,400 square feet in area and is located on the west side of State Street, between Beechwood Ave and Imperial Hwy, Assessor Parcel Number 6169-003- 017,in the M (Manufacturing)zone. ANALYSIS & DISCUSSION Lynwood Municipal Code (LMC) Chapter 25.25 sets forth permitted uses, conditionally permitted uses and development standards for commercial districts.

Plaza Mexico is currently parking deficient overall. Pursuant to LMC standards, Plaza Mexico should provide a minimum of 1,950 parking stalls and 1,744 parking stalls are provided leaving a deficiency of 206 stalls. Staff has determined that the proposed land use would provide a valuable service to the community and would satisfy the parking deficiency.
