San Francisco Bay area Draft Regional Housing Needs allocation, 4'~' Revision
<br />Several of the possible allocation factors proposed in the surveys were considered by the
<br />HMC, but not explicitly incorporated in the draft methodology. These factors include those
<br />related to:
<br />• Jobs-housing balance: 1(a) - (c)
<br />• Sewer/water constraints: 2
<br />• City-centered development: 5(a) - (c)
<br />• Loss of assisted housing units: 6
<br />• High housing cost burdens: 7
<br />• Housing needs of farm workers: 8
<br />• Traffic congestion: 9(a)
<br />• Rewards for past RHNA performance: 9(b)
<br />The HMC included the following suggested RHNA factors as explicit components of the
<br />draft methodology but may not have used them in precisely the way suggested by the
<br />respondents:
<br />• Public transitltransportation infrastructure: 3
<br />The HMC did not consider 9(c).
<br />In each instance where a respondent described specific localized data in support of its
<br />response to a survey question, e.g., 2, 6(a) and 8(a), the respondent did not identify sources
<br />for comparable data for other jurisdictions. Therefore, staff could not conclude that the
<br />proffered factor met the statutory requirement for comparability and availability.
<br />Consequently, the proposed factor was not used.
<br />IV. Housing Methodology Committee
<br />As the region's Council of Governments, ABAG is responsible for allocating the state-
<br />determined regional housing need to all jurisdictions in the Bay Area. The HMC was established
<br />in May 2006 to assist staff in developing a recommended methodology for allocating the regional
<br />need for adoption by the ABAG Executive Board. The HMC was comprised of local elected
<br />officials, city and county staff, and stakeholder representatives from each county in the region. It
<br />includes members from each county so that it adequately represents the entire region.
<br />The members of the Housing Methodology Committee were:
<br />Barbara Kondylis, Supervisor, District 1 (Solano), ABAG Executive Board
<br />Scott Haggerty, Supervisor, District 1 (Alameda), ABAG Executive Board
