Program 2 The City will assist and address the each residential zone (1) Principal uses. Transitional and Supportive Housing The City permits transitional and supportive housing subject only to those restrictions that apply to other residential uses of the same type in the same zone. Based on input from the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) and in order to transitional and supportive housing asa permitted residential use within all residential zoning districts. The City's Housing Element Consultant explains Transitional and Supportive Housing as follows: Transitional housing is a type of supportive housing usedt to facilitate ther movement of people experiencing homelessness into permanent housing. A person experiencing homelessness may live in a transitional apartment for a predetermined period of time, however not less than six months while receiving supportive services that enable independent living. Supportive housing is permanent rental housing linked to a range of support services designed to enable residents to maintain stable housing and The Housing Element must demonstrate that transitional housing and supportive housing are permitted as ar residential use and only subject to those restrictions that apply to other residential dwellings of the same type in the same zone (Gov't Code Sec. 65583(a)(5)). In other words, transitional housing and supportive housing are permitted in all zones allowing residential uses and are not subject to any restrictions (e.g., occupancy limits) not imposed on similar dwellings (e.g., single-family homes & apartments), in the same zone in which the transitional housing and supportive housing is located. For example, transitional housing located in an apartment building in a multi-family zone is permitted in the same manner as an apartment building in the same zone, and supportive housing located in a single-family zone is permitted in the same manner: as a single- family home in the same zone.

In 2007, SB 2 (Chapter 633, Statutes of 2007) revised housing element law requiring that transitional and supportive housing be permitted as a residential use, subject only to restrictions that apply to other residential dwellings of the same type in the same zone. SB 745, which took effect on January 1, 2014, generally amends the Section 65582 of the Government Code to replace prior Health and Safety Code definitions of "supportive housing," "target population," and "transitional housing" with Previously, definitions for "supportive housing," target population," and "transitional housing" were found in subdivision (b) of Section 50675.14, subdivision (3)(a) of Section 50675.14 and subdivision (h) of Section 50675.2 of the Health and Safety Code, respectively. SB745 deletes reference to these sections and creates new definitions in Government Code definitions now more specific to housing element law. Section 65582. The intent for this change is to remove cross references in Government Code Section 65582 to the definitions of "supportive housing" and "transitional housing" that are used in the statues governing the Multifamily Housing Program (MHP) and replace them with the current definitions that are used for the purposes of zoning applicable at the time SB 2 (Cedillo, Chapter 633, Statues of 2007) passed.

Pursuant to Government Code section 65585, subdivision (), the On March 5, 2015, the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) found Bradbury's 5th cycle housing element in compliance with state housing law based on, among other things, Policy 6: Emergency Shelter Program. Policy 6 committed to zone and permit emergency shelters without discretionary action within one year of housing element adoption (November 18, 2014) pursuant to Gov. Code section 65583, subd. (a)(4)(A). Housing element compliance beyond November 18, 2015 was contingent upon the completion of program On May 7, 2018, HCD issued correspondence requesting current status on the implementation of program actions. Documentation provided by the city on June 5, 2018 does not describe actions that implemented Policy 6: Emergency Shelter Program.

Submit the documentation via email to e.erie@hdaser. As a reminder, Gov. Code section 65588, subd. (e)(4) requires aj jurisdiction that failed to adopt its housing element within 120 calendar days from the statutory due date to revise its element every four years until adopting at least two consecutive revisions by the applicable due dates. The City of Bradbury did not meet the requirements of Gov. Code section 65588, subd.

Anne Browning-Mcintosh, City Planner Page 2 Bradbury's housing element update was due October 15, 2017. Bradbury has not submitted its four-year update to HCD. As a result, per HCD's January 19, 2018 correspondence, the City of Bradbury's housing element no longer complies with housing element law (Article 10.6 of the Government Code). In order to obtain housing element compliance, the city must submit a draft housing element update to HCD, consider written findings from HCD, adopt the element, and submit it for HCD review and certification. Be aware housing element law and other housing related laws have been changed or added effective January 1, 2018. For your information, in 2017, the Governor signed the 2017 Legislative Housing Package, which provides a renewed focus on housing, one oft the most basic needs for every Californian. Chapter 370 Statutes of 2017, Assembly Bill (AB) 72, became law as part of this package. AB7 72 expands and clarifies HCD's enforcement by authorizing HCD to find aj jurisdiction out of compliance with state housing law at any time. HCD will review local government's actions and inactions, including program actions committed within an adopted housing element, to determine consistency or inconsistency with state housing law. If HCD makes findings ofi inconsistency, housing element compliance may be revoked and additional actions may be taken, including referral to the Attorney Information on the new laws is available on HCD's website at phmahicasoinaise General's Office. research/hp. shtml.
