Finds that the modifications to the Land Use Element and Housing Element remain consistent with the scope of the project analyzed in the previously certified Program EIR Housing Element adopted by City Council Resolution No. 23-1357 and that no further environmental analysis is required per Title 14 California Code of Regulations §15168(c)(2).

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; except that the reference to the Kaiser site on Exhibit A3 page 3, paragraph 3, is excluded from such incorporation. 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). Section 6. 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, to remove the Kaiser site in response to current owner intent, and to add the Boulder Street site or alternatively the Old Santa Rita Road site, 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.
