B. Affordable Housing Model
Kim Grant gave an update of the Affordable Housing Model— Working Draft. Staff
provided a hard copy of the slide presentation for discussion and input. Ms. Grant
reviewed items addressed from the last meeting.
Kim Grant explained the task given to HHVS, in which AHAC has been supporting
HHVS on,has been a projection model. The intent was to replace what was in the prior
housing element.
Kim Grant reviewed the Key Planning Elements and Data Considerations.
• Average Median Income
• Population Growth
• Median Sales Price
• Housing Opportunity Index
Chairman Hruby and the committee members discussed the real estate market, existing
conditions, assumptions, data available (locally and nationally), etc. It was suggested that
when the model is approved, projections should be evaluated on a quarter by quarter
basis.
Discussions ensued regarding population growth in conjunction with indicators,
affordable housing units approved, keeping a math simple equation, the review of
elements quarterly and affordable housing permits pulled.
Kim Grant summarized conclusions as follows:
• Changes to the model based on committee input:
o Update HOI to current data
o Use the BEBR projection rather than Net Migration
o If available,use building permits submitted for affordable housing rather
than the land use planning figures(to obtain a more realistic view of those
in development to become available near term)
o Translate the info to an apples to apples comparison based on a family of
four with minimum two bedrooms (need bedroom data)
o Reflect the model also in 80% and 120%AMI
o Provide stats by commission district
