DISCUSSION RHNA Requirements When analyzing whether the City has demonstrated adequate capacity to meet its assigned affordable housing obligation, HCD analyzed each of the City's RHNA income categories, with priority given to ensuring adequate inventory for housing for lower-income households. Per HCD guidelines, vacant/underutilized sites with a density of 30 units per acre or greater are considered inventory for the construction of very low- and low-income housing; permitted and approved sites with a density of 30 units per acre or greater are considered inventory for the construction of moderate-income housing; and lower density single-family residential sites are considered inventory for the above moderate-income category. As recommended by Council, the Draft Housing Element submitted to HCD categorized the CM Capital 2 site within the inventory as comprising Above Moderate units with a maximum density of 12.5 units per acre. The estimated current site capacity provided within the Final Draft and reviewed by HCD is shown in Table 1.
