HOUSING RESOURCES units in accordance with Section 65583.2 (c) (3) (b) of the California Government Code. The potential for residential units in this planning area was not counted towards the City's previous RHNA. Therefore, the City can reduce its remaining RHNA balance by 785 units, leaving the City with a RHNA balance of 201 lower income units (111 very low and 90 low based on the 2006 -2014 distribution ratio). The City planned on rezoning land along Harbor Boulevard and accommodating its remaining RHNA by adopting the Harbor Mixed Use Transit Corridor Specific Plan within the 2006 -2014 planning period. However, the City determined that the importance of the project and the need for extensive public outreach warranted more time and the project timeline was extended. Adoption of the specific plan is expected in early 2014 (Program 19). These 201 units must be accommodated through land rezoned exclusively for residential development. A breakdown of the rezoning completed and affordable projects constructed between 2009 and 2012 is provided in Table C -2. Source: SCAG, 2012.
