2)Each jurisdiction in the Urban County developed their own suitable for rehabil i tat ion data according to the following methodology: Albany - Assumed that all substandard units were suitable for rehabilitation Emeryville - Not Available Livermore - Based on Windshield Survey conducted by Chief Building Inspector in September, 1976. Newark - Not Available Pleasanton - Not Available Union City - Based on exterior survey conducted in in conservation areas within city. Unincorporated Alameda County - Based on data from 1970 Census (Census Tracts, San Francisco-Oakland SMSA, PHC (1)-189). For occupied housing units constructed after 1939, 5~ of the sub-standard owner units, 25% of the sub-standard renter units, 10% of the standard owne;' units, and 25% of the standard renter units were considered suitable for rehabilitation. For occupied housing units constructed before 1939, 25~ of the sub-standard owner units, 10% of the sub-standard renter units, of the standard owner units, and 50% of the standard renter units were considered suitable for rehabilitation. For vacant units constructed after 1939, 25~ of the sub-standard tenter units, 20% of the standard owner units, and 50% of the standard renter units were considered suitable for rehabilitation. For vacant units constructed before 1939, 5~ of the sub- standard tenter units, and all of the standard owner and renter units were considered to be suitable for rehabilltatlon. It was assumed that there were no vacant sub-standard owner units in the Unincorporated County. 3)The total number of vacant units in each city except Union City was estimated by utilizing the overall vacancy rates for June 20-27, 1975 that were published in the most recent Postal Vacancy Survey. If a city had an overall vacancy rate of 1.5%, it was assumed that the number of occupied units (which was calculated above) was equal to 98.5% of the total number of units, and that the remaining units were vacant. As no vacancy data was published for Albany, the vacancy rate for Albany was estimated to be the same as Berkeley's (1.4%). The vacancy rate for Union City (6.0%) was obtained from its 1975 Special Census. The number of vacant housing units in the Unincorporated County was obtained from the 1976 Special Census. All vacant single family units in the 1976 Special Census were assumed to be owner-occupied, while all vacant multi-family units were assumed to be rentals. It was'assumed that the percentages of vacant housing units in each city except Union City that were classified in each sub-category (owner, renter, standard and sub-standard) were the same at the time of the Postal Vacancy Survey as they were during the 1970 Census. For Union City, the percentages of vacant housing units in each of these sub-categories were assumed to be the same during the Special Census as they were during the 1970 Census. Total figures for vacantunits do not always equal the sum of the units for sale plus the units for rent because some vacant units are being held for speculative purposes or else serve some other non-residential use.
