• An analysis of special housing needs, including special populations such as the homeless, elderly, disabled, and large families; • An analysis of opportunities for energy conservation; • An analysis of assisted housing which may be eligible to conversion to market rate housing; • A statement of goals, quantified objectives and policies; and, • An action plan to implement the policies and achieve the goals and objectives of the Housing Element. The preparation of an inventory of land suitably zoned to meet the City's housing need, and the rezoning that had to be undertaken by the City to meet our housing need was a large part of the effort for the last Housing Element update. Several of these multifamily sites remain available and can be included in the City's inventory. In addition, staff recently confirmed with the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) that we may count units approved but not occupied prior to the end of 2013 towards our RHNA requirement. This means that the City can count the units approved in the Auf der Maur project (345 units), the Commons at Gateway (307 units), The Residences at California Center (305 units), and St. Anton Hacienda (168 units) in our inventory, as well as projects meeting our need for homes for above moderate income households such as the DiDonato project (12 units) and the Ponderosa project (12 units) on Stanley Boulevard. A listing of the larger vacant sites and projects with approved (entitled) units is shown in Tables 2 and 3. Page 3 of 7
