1.  
A DULY NOTED PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER A RECOMMENDATION TO THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LA HABRA TO APPROVE GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT 22-01 ADOPTING THE 2021-2029 (6th CYCLE) HOUSING ELEMENT OF THE LA HABRA GENERAL PLAN 2035

Adoption of the proposed Housing Element is exempt under State CEQA Guidelines §15061(b)(3) common sense exemption, because the proposed Housing Element includes updated policies, programs, and actions that advocate for housing at all economic levels and meet the state legal requirements for a Housing Element. A key component of the proposed Housing Element is the identification of existing sites in the Land Use Element that are designated for housing. These sites show that the City can meet their Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) without a general plan amendment or rezoning of property.

All future construction must comply with policies in the General Plan, many of which are intended to address potential environmental impacts. Further, all projects are subject to the adopted City ordinances, regulations and policies that regulate and direct development of individual projects. The updated Housing Element does not change any of the development requirements in the City that are designed to mitigate or avoid environmental impacts. Based on these factors, it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the proposed 6th Cycle Housing Element Update would have a significant effect on the environment; therefore, the 6th Cycle Housing Element is exempt from CEQA under the common sense exemption.
 
 
That the Planning Commission approve:

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF LA HABRA RECOMMENDING THAT THE CITY COUNCIL APPROVE GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT 22-01 ADOPTING THE 2021-2029 (6th CYCLE) HOUSING ELEMENT OF THE LA HABRA GENERAL PLAN 2035 AS PER ATTACHMENT A.
