16. HOUSING ELEMENT REZONE IMPLEMENTING PROGRAMS 1.1A,\n1.1B, 1.1F, AND 1.1G OF THE 6TH CYCLE 2021-2029 HOUSING\nELEMENT OF THE GENERAL PLAN Under State law, the City’s Housing\nElement must show that the City can provide its fair share of regional\nhousing over an eight-year period (2021 to 2029). The City’s share of\nhousing is established by a process called the Regional Housing Needs\nAllocation ("RHNA").The current RHNA mandates the City to\naccommodate the construction of at least 6,782 dwelling units. However,\nthe City’s current zoning can only accommodate 4,614 new dwellings;\nwhich results in a shortfall of 2,168 units. Pursuant to the mandates of\nState law, the City established a "rezone program" in the Housing Element\nthat specifies properties that will be rezoned to residential to resolve the\nshortfall. After lengthy public engagement and input, surveys, workshops,\nand hearings, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the\nHousing Element on September 13, 2022, and the City Council adopted\nthe Housing Element on October 4, 2022. The adopted Housing Element\nincluded programs to accommodate the RHNA shortfall by rezoning areas\nof Tustin Legacy, the Enderle Center, and the Tustin Market Place. The\nadopted Housing Element was then submitted to the California\nDepartment of Housing and Community Development ("HCD"), and\nsubsequently, the City received certification by HCD on October 10, 2022.\nThe proposed Housing Element Rezone implements the City’s adopted\nand certified Housing Element.
