In the past, there were no HPS's and thus these recommendations only had the HNA to go into. Thus, things are changing and hopefully for the better. We'll just have to review your HPS when it comes out. Our only ask then, is that you match the typical Goal 10 findings provided for HNA's (see below, page 316) by putting your summary of the deficit in there. You can also make reference to another location in the document if that is easier. That may seem a little repetitive, but unless it is explicitly stated, readers won't know how much effort you really put into this. Does that make sense?

You are right that the current version of the HNA does not identify strategies to remedy the deficit in housing units, as we intend to do this through our work on the Housing Production Strategy in the coming year or so (our deadline is December 31, 2024). Our project consultants at MIG have worked on many other HNAs and had not been made aware of this issue as of yet, and we had been advised that it’s premature to evaluate any solutions given that the HPS will be the forum for identifying most solutions related to meeting future housing needs, including development code amendments, financial and funding strategies, etc. Regardless, we know that we’ll have to use some combination of the following to meet the needs identified: Annexation and development of land within the city's urban growth area (the BLI does not include the capacity in those areas); Use of efficiency measures to increase the capacity of developable land within the City; and/or Amendment of the City's UGB as part of the regional UGB amendment process. Because we found a deficit for all three types of land, simply rezoning low density land to high density or something similar likely won't necessarily address the problem. I think we could add some general language to the HNA to note what I described above, if that would help to address your comments, but I’m not sure the City would want to commit to anything specific until the HPS process has played out.

Exercise caution when opening attachments or clicking links, especially from unknown senders. Good morning Erik, My name is Jean Dahlquist and I am a volunteer with Housing Land Advocates. We received staff report LU 23-0023 and the proposed HNA, and found it irregular. In the report, you state that "The HNA Report includes a reconciliation of the anticipated future housing needs identified in the HCA and the land supply identified in the BLI. The results show a projected deficit of 642 dwelling units, or 86 acres, in the City by 2043. This includes a deficit of 192 units (38 acres) in low-density zones, 249 units (31 acres) in medium-density zones, and 201 units (17 acres) in high-density zones." But unlike all other HNA's we reviewed, we did not see any proposed solutions on how to remedy the deficit. Did we miss something? If we raise the issue with DLCD, we want to make sure we are doing an accurate representation of the new HNA. After all, an HNA is a lot of work, and we don't want to make more work for you!
