Environmental and Land Use Findings. Mayor Lurie; Supervisors Dorsey, Mahmood, Mandelman BOARD OF SUPERVISORS Page 1 (a) The Planning Department has determined that the actions contemplated in this ordinance comply with the California Environmental Quality Act (California Public Resources Code Sections 21000 et seq.). Said determination is on file with the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors in File No. 250680 and is incorporated herein by reference. The Board affirms this determination. (b) On July 24, 2025, the Planning Commission, in Resolution No. 21790, adopted findings that the actions contemplated in this ordinance are consistent, on balance, with the City's General Plan and eight priority policies of Planning Code Section 101.1. The Board adopts these findings as its own. A copy of said Resolution is on file with the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors in File No. 250680, and is incorporated herein by reference. (c) Pursuant to Planning Code Section 302, this Board finds that these Planning Code amendments will serve the public necessity, convenience, and welfare for the reasons set forth in Planning Commission Resolution No. 21790, and the Board adopts such reasons as its own. A copy of said resolution is on file with the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors in File No. 250680 and is incorporated herein by reference. Section 2. General Legislative Findings. (a) California faces a severe crisis of housing affordability and availability, prompting the Legislature to declare, in Section 65589.5 of the Government Code, that the State has "a housing supply and affordability crisis of historic proportions. The consequences of failing to effectively and aggressively confront this crisis are hurting millions of Californians, robbing future generations of a chance to call California home, stifling economic opportunities for workers and businesses, worsening poverty and homelessness, and undermining the state's environmental and climate objectives." Mayor Lurie; Supervisors Dorsey, Mahmood, Mandelman BOARD OF SUPERVISORS Page 2 (b) This crisis is particularly severe in San Francisco. It is characterized by dramatic increases in rent and home sale prices over recent years. According to the Planning Department's 2020 Housing Inventory, the cost of housing in San Francisco has increased dramatically since the Great Recession of 2008-2009, with the median sale price for a two- bedroom house more than tripling from $493,000 in 2011 to $1,580,000 in 2021. This includes a 9% increase in housing costs from 2019 to 2020, even in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic. The median rental price for a two-bedroom apartment saw similar although slightly smaller increases, nearly doubling from $2,570 per month in 2011 to $4,500 per month in 2019, before declining in 2020 due to the pandemic. (c) On January 31, 2023, the City adopted the 2022 Update of the Housing Element of the General Plan ("2022 Housing Element"), as required by State law. This Update commits the City to meeting its Regional Housing Needs Allocation ("RHNA") goals that in the 2023- 2031 Housing Element cycle total 82,069 units over eight years, which is more than 2.5 times the goal of the previous cycle. Among other policies, the 2022 Housing Element also commits the City to remove governmental constraints on housing. (d) In 2008, the City adopted the Market and Octavia Area Plan ("Plan"), which, among other things, established new height and zoning controls within the Plan area. The Plan substantially upzoned the area around Van Ness Avenue and Market Street to create a high- density, transit-oriented residential neighborhood and established the Van Ness and Market Special Use District, which imposed certain additional development impact fees on projects in this area to fund affordable housing and infrastructure improvements for parks, streets, and transit. These new fee requirements supplement the City's lnclusionary Affordable Housing Program and Transportation Sustainability Fee, which continue to apply citywide, including in the Market and Octavia Plan area. Mayor Lurie; Supervisors Dorsey, Mahmood, Mandelman BOARD OF SUPERVISORS Page 3 (e) The economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic have presented significant challenges to the financial feasibility of new residential development projects, including supply chain disruptions, labor market constraints, historically high inflation, dramatically increased federal interest rates, and a weaker housing market. These factors have contributed to a significant decrease in housing production. In 2024, 1,457 new units were constructed citywide, a substantial decrease from 4,716 units in 2020. (f) In the Market and Octavia Area Plan, only two projects that were not subject to a Development Agreement that provided modified requirements to support financial feasibility have commenced construction since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020: one 29- unit project that secured financing before the economic impacts of the pandemic became manifest, and one 333-unit project that began construction in 2023 but has since paused construction due to post-pandemic market conditions and increased development costs. As of May 14, 2024, 25 additional projects with a total of 2,213 units have been approved in the Area Plan, but have not commenced construction. (g) In 2008, as part of the adoption of the Market and Octavia Area Plan ("Plan"), the Market and Octavia Community Advisory Committee ("CAC") was established. The CAC is an advisory body to the City whose primary responsibility is to advise City agencies on the allocation of impact fee revenue to fund the community improvements identified in the Area Plan. The Market and Octavia CAC was established without a sunset clause, unlike the other area plan CACs which have a similar purview and were established with a sunset clause. For example, the Eastern Neighborhoods CAC, also established in 2008, had a sunset clause of 2024, and the SoMa CAC established in 2019 has a sunset clause of 2035. Section 3.
