Section 4. The City Council finds that based on substantial evidence in the record including that non-vacant higher density RHNA sites are primarily underutilized as surface parking and/or surface parking with commercial buildings where the existing uses are of marginal economic viability, the structures are at or near the end of their useful life, and the City has received affirmative interest in developing housing, the existing uses on the non-vacant sites identified in the site inventory to accommodate the RHNA are likely to be discontinued during the planning period and therefore do not constitute an impediment to planned residential development on the sites during the planning period, as described more particularly in Exhibit C to this resolution, incorporated herein by this reference and further enumerated in Exhibit A3 of City Council Resolution No. 23-1358. Section 5. The City Council finds that the Housing Element incorporates the City's goals, quantifiable objectives, and policies to affirmatively further fair housing and the maintenance, preservation, improvement, and development of housing per Government Code §65583(b).

The City Council adopts the General Plan amendments to the Land Use Element (Exhibit A) and Housing Element (Exhibit B) that have been modified in response to the findings of HCD as being in substantial compliance with the requirements of State Housing Element Law, as previously enumerated in Exhibit A2 to City Council Resolution No. 23-1358.

The Director of Community Development or designee is hereby directed to file all necessary material with HCD for HCD to find that the Housing Element is in conformance with State Housing Element Law and is further directed and authorized to make all typographical and non-substantive changes to the Land Use Element and Housing Element to make them internally consistent or to address any non-substantive changes or amendments requested by HCD to achieve HCD certification of the Housing Element.
