Title
Update on State Housing Mandate - Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) and Proposed Action Plan
Recommendation
The Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) has submitted a RHNA methodology that results in an allocation of 4,832 units for Newport Beach. This RHNA methodology was an abrupt and significant change that was developed without input from the City. Staff will provide an update on this methodology, the next steps in the RHNA approval process and proposed next steps, particularly in context with the General Plan update that is underway.
