<br /> timelines(e g.,at least annually or by January 2025),including for Programs 1.5(Assist in Development of Lower-and Extremely-Lower be shifted earlier,as feasible,to result in larger

<br /> are not meeting assumptions in the sites inventory,including,but not limited to,additional rezoning rezoning action will be noted as potential action.
<br /> Identify actions that will be taken to make sites available during the planning penal with appropriate zoning and development standards and
<br /> with services and facilities to accommodate that portion of the city's or county's share of the regional housing need for each income level that
<br /> could not be accommodated on sites identified in the inventory completed pursuant to paragraph(3)of subdivision(a)without rezoning,and
<br /> to comply with the requirements of Government Code section 65584.09.Sites shall be identified as needed to facilitate and encourage the
<br /> development of a variety of types of housing for all income levels,including multifamily rental housing,factory-built housing,mobilehomes,
<br /> C.2 housing for agricultural employees,supportive housing,single-room occupancy units,emergency shelters,and transitional housing.(Gov. See responses under Comment B.3,above N/A
<br /> Code,§65583,subd.(c)(1).)
<br /> As noted in Finding B3,the element does not include a complete site analysis,therefore,the adequacy of sites and zoning were not
<br /> established.Based on the results of a complete sites inventory and analysis,the City may need to add or revise programs to address a
<br /> shortfall of sites or zoning available to encourage a variety of housing types.
<br /> In addition,Program 5.6(Zoning for Special Needs Housing)currently commits to allow transitional and supportive in all zones allowing
<br /> residential uses and not subject to any special requirements consistent with AB 2162.However,this program conflates two unique Program 5.6 language will be revised so as to not

<br /> separately,the program should commit to permit permanent supportive housing without discretionary action pursuant to Government Code supportive housing.

<br /> Address and,where appropriate and legally possible,remove governmental and nongovernmental constraints to the maintenance,
<br /> improvement,and development of housing,including housing for all income levels and housing for persons with disabilities.The program
<br /> shall remove constraints to,and provide reasonable accommodations for housing designed for,intended for occupancy by,or with
<br /> C.3 supportive services for,persons with disabilities.(Gov.Code,§65583,subd.(c)(3).) See responses under Comment B.4,above. N/A
<br /> As noted in Findings B4,the element requires a complete analysis of potential governmental and non-governmental constraints Depending
<br /> upon the results of that analysis,the City may need to revise or add programs and address and remove or mitigate any identified constraints
