<br />Sites Inventory and Methodology City of Pleasanton | B-5 <br />From 2018 through 2021, the City issued an average of 11.5 ADU building permits per year. <br />The City is conservatively estimating that ADUs will be produced at the same rate throughout <br />the eight-year planning period, resulting in 93 ADUs. <br />The City has adopted an ADU Ordinance consistent with state law and will promote ADU <br />production through the preparation of standardized ADU building plans and incentives for <br />homeowners to rent ADUs. Under Program 1.9, the City will publicize and promote the ADU <br />standard plans and incentives through multiple outreach methods and languages. Furthermore, <br />to help increase the percentage of approved ADUs that have building permits issued, the City <br />will promote the availability of funding for ADUs, including the CalHFA ADU Grant Program <br />that provides up to $25,000 to reimburse homeowners for predevelopment costs necessary to <br />build and occupy an ADU. Furthermore, the City will monitor ADU production and affordability <br />throughout the planning period and implement additional action if target ADU numbers are not <br />being met. <br />ABAG conducted a regional ADU affordability analysis to provide local governments in the <br />region with assumptions for ADU affordability that can be used to assign projected ADUs to <br />income categories. The ADU affordability assumptions identified in the preliminary ABAG <br />analysis for communities with affirmatively furthering fair housing concerns were applied to <br />ADUs projected over the planning period in Table B-2. <br />Table B-2: Affordability per ABAG ADU Survey <br />Income Level Percent ADU Projections <br />Very Low 5% 5 <br />Low 30% 28 <br />Moderate 50% 46 <br />Above Moderate 15% 14 <br />Total 93 <br />Source: ABAG <br />B.2.2 Entitled and Proposed Developments <br />Because the RHNA projection period for the 2023-2031 Housing Element began on June 30, <br />2022, housing developments that are proposed or received entitlement and were not issued a <br />certificate of occupancy before July 1, 2022 but are expected to be completed before the end <br />of the planning period (January 31, 2031), can be credited toward the RHNA. Table B-3 lists <br />those projects that meet those criteria and can be credited toward the 6th Cycle RHNA.
