Subject: HEAB Meeting - Agenda Item #2; General Planning Commission - Agenda item #2 - Meeting
date July 20, 2023
Dear Members of the HEAB and General Planning Commission,
The Los Gatos Community Alliance (LGCA) believes the Town does not have sufficient sites iden�fied in
the Housing Element site inventory to provide the development capacity to meet the Town’s 6th cycle
RHNA alloca�on plus 15 % buffer for very-low-income, low- income, and moderate-income categories.
This has been documented in Table 10.3 which is atached.
Table 10.3 has been adjusted to reflect the planned development that was submited by the developers
on their SB 330 applica�ons for the N40 parcels (APN 424-07-009/053/095/094/081/115/116) and the
Los Gatos Lodge parcels (APN 529-24-001/003/032). There are material differences between the SB 330
applica�ons and the Towns’ adopted site inventory as submited to HCD on February 13, 2023. The site
inventory can be found on the Town’s website at this link
(htps://www.losgatosca.gov/DocumentCenter/View/32742/Electronic-copy-of-the-Sites-Inventory-
Form-PDF?bidId= ). A copy has also been atached for your reference.
It should be noted that the February 13 site inventory list is different from the site inventory that was
used to prepare Table 10.3. The February site inventory list, which was adopted by the Town Council,
totaled 81.86 acres of land and 1,840 units of which 972 were low-income units (very low and low
combined). The site inventory that was the basis for Table 10.3 totaled 87.1 acres of land and 1,997
units of which 1,008 were low-income units (very low and low combined). The later site inventory list
has not been adopted by the Town Council nor approved by HCD. For purposes of this email, Table 10.3
was used as published in the latest dra� of the Housing Element, understanding that there is an
unexplained discrepancy between the two site inventory lists.
Once the adjustment is made for the SB 330 planned development for the N40 and Los Gatos Lodge
parcels, the Town has a deficit of 190 very-low-income units, 20 low-income units and 53 moderate
income units. Worse, the Town does meet the RHNA alloca�on for very -low (deficit of 109 units) and
moderate-income levels (deficit of 5 units), while exceeding the above moderate-income category by
459 units or 56%! This is very troubling.
Given these deficits it appears the Town is viola�on of the Government Code Sec�on 65863 – No Net
Loss Law. The purpose of this law is to ensure development opportuni�es remain available throughout
the planning period to accommodate a jurisdic�ons’ regional housing need alloca�on (RHNA), especially
for lower and moderate-income households. A jurisdic�on must maintain sites to always accommodate
its remaining unmet RHNA by each category throughout the en�re planning period.
A memo from HCD which explains in detail the requirements of No Net Loss Law is also atached. Please
refer to page 15 which shows a No Net Loss Law decision flow chart. It should be noted that the flow
chart starts when a development is proposed which then triggers a capacity calcula�on. The relevant
ATTACHMENT 9
ques�on is “would the approval of the proposed project result in a lower density than was assumed in
the housing element or create a shor�all of capacity to accommodate the RHNA by income”. The
answer is absolutely yes.
Given the development applica�on was made under SB 330 and the Town does not have a cer�fied
Housing Element, the Town has very litle discre�on regarding the approval of these projects. Under
State law once a SB 330 applica�on is received by the Town, the applica�on is deemed to be complete,
even though final documenta�on is not due for an addi�onal 180 days. Given this, it is highly likely the
Town will approve the development units as submited.
Furthermore, if the Town makes no adjustment to the current dra� site inventory, it is highly likely the
Town Council will be unable to make a truthful finding supported by substan�al evidence in the record
that the current dra� site inventory is adequate to meet the jurisdic�on’s RHNA for the 6th cycle by
income category. For sake of clarity, given all the evidence in the record today, which includes leters
from the developers and the related SB 330 applica�ons, the current dra� site inventory will not meet
the Town’s 6th cycle requirements by income category.
Recommenda�ons
1. Since the housing element has not been cer�fied by HCD and the Town does not have a
compliant site inventory list, the Town should immediately increase the number of parcels in the
dra� site inventory list to address the deficit in very-low-, low- and moderate-income categories.
This is required by the No Net Loss Law. This will also improve the chances that the Town will
have the Housing Element cer�fied by HCD in a �mely manner which is a major concern given
the Town’s con�nuing exposure to the builder remedy.
2. Un�l the Town has a compliant site inventory list, the Town should not begin the process to
amend the General Plan to include a descrip�on of the HEOZ or amend the Town Code to
modify the AHOZ. Since the current site inventory list must be amended to comply with the No
Net Loss Law, any ac�on taken now would be premature and deny the public the right to full
disclosure of the parcels to be included in the zoning changes subject to HEOZ and AHOZ.
3. There seems to be considerable confusion with the Staff regarding the need to amend the
current dra� of the site inventory list to address the deficits noted in Table 10-3. For sake of
clarity and to remove all doubt, Staff should immediately request HCD to issue a leter of
technical assistance which would address all issues regarding the Town’s responsibility under
Housing Element Law (ar�cle 10.6 of Gov. Code) and the related No Net Loss Law (Govt. Code
sec�on 65863) and the impact of all SB 330 applica�ons the Town has received as of today. The
public deserves a clear explana�on as to how the Town should legally address in the Housing
Element all the SB 330 applica�ons given the material impact on the current dra� of the site
inventory.
Thank you for reviewing my recommenda�ons. Please let us know if you have any ques�ons.

How do growth control ordinances relate to the RHNA?
Government Code section 65302.8 requires findings be made to ensure that a
jurisdiction can continue to fulfill requirements of Housing Element Law, including the
accommodation of the RHNA. Findings include a description of the following:
•The jurisdiction’s RHNA.
•The specific housing programs and activities being undertaken by the jurisdiction
to achieve RHNA objectives.
•How the public health, safety, and welfare would be promoted.
•Fiscal and environmental resources available to the local jurisdiction.
Moratoriums – Pursuant to Government Code section 65858, jurisdictions may adopt a 45-day interim
ordinance prohibiting any uses, including housing, that may be in conflict with a contemplated general
plan, specific plan, or zoning proposal. This applies to a general plan, specific plan, or zoning
proposal that the legislative body, planning commission or the planning department is considering,
studying, or intends to study within a reasonable time. While the ordinance may be extended for other
uses, a moratorium on the development of multifamily housing cannot be extended unless specific
findings are made. In addition, regardless of its duration, a moratorium that affects sites in the
Housing Element inventory may be in conflict with the No Net Loss Law, as the law requires a
jurisdiction to maintain capacity at all times to accommodate the RHNA. A jurisdiction should consult
counsel prior to enacting a moratorium on housing.
Jurisdiction Actions
Jurisdiction actions include downzoning or other actions taken by a jurisdiction to reduce a parcel’s
allowable residential density. This can be done through a change in zoning or an imposition of density
limitations that preclude that ability to achieve densities assumed in the Housing Element sites
inventory. If the parcel to be downzoned is identified in the Housing Element, a jurisdiction must make
written findings, supported by substantial evidence, that:
•The reduction is consistent with the jurisdiction’s adopted general plan, including the Housing
Element. For example, this finding could be made if downzone does not change the land use and
zoning designation.
•The remaining sites identified in the Housing Element are adequate to meet the requirements of
Section 65583.2 and to accommodate the jurisdiction’s remaining share of the RHNA for the
planning period. The finding must include a quantification of the remaining unmet need for the
jurisdiction’s RHNA at each income level and the remaining capacity of sites identified in the
Housing Element to accommodate that need by income level.
Page 10
Denying an application - A jurisdiction may not deny a housing development application on the basis
that approval of the development would trigger the identification, or zoning, of additional adequate
sites to accommodate the remaining RHNA.
However, since the term “housing development” is used in the statute, it does not prevent a
jurisdiction from denying a non-residential development on an identified site if it would trigger the
identification, or rezoning, of additional adequate sites.
Requests for developer assistance with complying with No Net Loss Law – While the jurisdiction is
solely responsible for compliance with No Net Loss Law, under limited circumstances the statute
does allow a jurisdiction the option to require the applicant to assist the jurisdiction in meeting these
provisions. Specifically, requests can be made if an applicant’s initial development application
requests a residential density that results in the remaining sites in the sites inventory being insufficient
to accommodate it remaining RHNA. A jurisdiction cannot require developer assistance if the
subsequent approval process results in a reduction of units.
Types of assistance required could include help with the identification of additional sites for potential
rezones or community outreach. However, requests should be balanced with the potential impact on
the overall viability of the project. Overly burdensome requirements may make a development project
financially infeasible and could, in effect, constitute a denial of the project or may violate the Housing
Accountability Act (Government Code section 65589.5.)
California Environment Quality Act (CEQA)
The act of identifying or making available additional adequate sites, in and of itself, to comply with the
statutory requirements to accommodate the remaining unmet RHNA, does not trigger a CEQA
review. However, if making available additional adequate sites requires an increase in density, a
rezone, or other actions that constitute a “project” under CEQA, a CEQA analysis would be required.
When approving a site at a lower residential density, the possibility of a CEQA analysis should be
considered since the CEQA review must be completed within the 180-day timeline to identify and
rezone additional, adequate sites to accommodate the remaining RHNA by income category. The
failure to complete a timely CEQA analysis would render the additional sites inadequate to
accommodate the remaining unmet RHNA. This would be a violation of No Net Loss Law and could
also render the Housing Element out of compliance with state Housing Element Law.
Failure to Comply with No Net Loss Law
In addition to violating of the No Net Loss Law, the failure to ensure that there are sufficient adequate
sites to accommodate the unmet RHNA by income category throughout the entire planning period is
also a violation of the Housing Element Law. This is because the Housing Element will also fail to
identify adequate sites to accommodate the RHNA by income category. As a result, pursuant to
Government Code section 65585 (i) and (j), the Department may revoke a jurisdiction’s Housing
Element compliance and/or refer the violation to the Attorney General. In addition, a third party may
file an action to challenge the jurisdiction in court.

Identifying Your Remaining RHNA and Maintaining Capacity
A jurisdiction should implement an ongoing, project-by-project evaluation of each approved residential
development to ensure that sufficient adequate site capacity is available to accommodate the
remaining RHNA by income category throughout the planning period. This evaluation could also be
used to complete the APR required to be sent to the Department by April 1 of each year.
The evaluation procedure could utilize a spreadsheet or tool, such as the No Net Loss Capacity
Calculation Tool below, to subtract the number of residential units in each approved development
from the RHNA to determine the remaining unmet RHNA by income category. The total number of
approved units by income category could then be subtracted from the Housing Element’s sites
inventory site capacity by income category to determine the remaining site capacity.
No Net Loss Capacity Calculation Tool Example
Step 1: Determine remaining RHNA
• Identify the reported RHNA from permitted projects as reported in the Housing Element Annual
Progress Report (Table B of the Annual Progress Report). If the jurisdiction has not yet completed
those reports for the planning period, please go to the Departments Webpage and select “Annual
Progress Reports.”
• Identify any projects from the planning period that have received their approvals/entitlements and
are anticipated to pull their building permits.
• Identify the number of units permitted or that have been approved/entitled in the current reporting
year (including accessory dwelling units and other alternatives under Government Code section
65583.1.)
• Calculate the remaining RHNA to date.
• If determining potential No Net Loss capacity of a proposed development, subtract the units from
the proposed development to get the remaining RHNA resulting from the proposed project.

Sample Housing Element Program
Sample Program: No Net Loss of Residential Capacity to Accommodate the RHNA by Income
Category (Government Code section 65863)
To ensure sufficient residential capacity is maintained to accommodate the RHNA for each income
category, within one year of adoption of the Housing Element, develop and implement a formal,
ongoing (project-by-project) evaluation procedure pursuant to Government Code section 65863. The
evaluation procedure will track the number of extremely low-, very low-, low-, moderate-, and above
moderate-income units constructed to calculate the remaining unmet RHNA. The evaluation
procedure will also track the number of units built on the identified sites to determine the remaining
site capacity by income category and will be updated continuously as developments are approved.
No action can be taken to reduce the density or capacity of a site (e.g., downzone, moratorium),
unless other additional adequate sites are identified prior to reducing site density or capacity.
If a development is being approved on an identified site at a lower density than what was assumed for
that site identified in the Housing Element, additional adequate sites must be made available within
180 days of approving the development. A program to identify the replacement sites, and take the
necessary actions to make the site(s) available and ensure they are adequate sites, will be adopted
prior to, or at the time of, the approval of the development.
Time Frame: Within six months of adoption of the Housing Element, develop and implement a formal
ongoing evaluation procedure pursuant to Government Code section 65863.
Subsequent to adopting an evaluation procedure, monitor rezones and development of residential
units, and update Housing Element sites inventory. Housing Element sites inventory is posted on the
Planning Department’s website and will be updated at least once a year.
At least annually, update the sites inventory in conjunction with Housing Element Annual Reports
pursuant to Government Code section 65400, as necessary.

No Net Loss Law Statute (Government Code Section 65863)
65863.
(a) Each city, county, or city and county shall ensure that its housing element inventory described in
paragraph (3) of subdivision (a) of Section 65583 or its housing element program to make sites
available pursuant to paragraph (1) of subdivision (c) of Section 65583 can accommodate, at all times
throughout the planning period, its remaining unmet share of the regional housing need allocated
pursuant to Section 65584, except as provided in paragraph (2) of subdivision (c). At no time, except
as provided in paragraph (2) of subdivision (c), shall a city, county, or city and county by
administrative, quasi-judicial, legislative, or other action permit or cause its inventory of sites identified
in the housing element to be insufficient to meet its remaining unmet share of the regional housing
need for lower and moderate-income households.
(b) (1) No city, county, or city and county shall, by administrative, quasi-judicial, legislative, or other
action, reduce, or require or permit the reduction of, the residential density for any parcel to, or allow
development of any parcel at, a lower residential density, as defined in paragraphs (1) and (2) of
subdivision (g), unless the city, county, or city and county makes written findings supported by
substantial evidence of both of the following:
(A) The reduction is consistent with the adopted general plan, including the housing element.
(B) The remaining sites identified in the housing element are adequate to meet the requirements of
Section 65583.2 and to accommodate the jurisdiction’s share of the regional housing need pursuant
to Section 65584. The finding shall include a quantification of the remaining unmet need for the
jurisdiction’s share of the regional housing need at each income level and the remaining capacity of
sites identified in the housing element to accommodate that need by income level.
(2) If a city, county, or city and county, by administrative, quasi-judicial, legislative, or other action,
allows development of any parcel with fewer units by income category than identified in the
jurisdiction’s housing element for that parcel, the city, county, or city and county shall make a written
finding supported by substantial evidence as to whether or not remaining sites identified in the
housing element are adequate to meet the requirements of Section 65583.2 and to accommodate the
jurisdiction’s share of the regional housing need pursuant to Section 65584. The finding shall include
a quantification of the remaining unmet need for the jurisdiction’s share of the regional housing need
at each income level and the remaining capacity of sites identified in the housing element to
accommodate that need by income level.
(c) (1) If a reduction in residential density for any parcel would result in the remaining sites in the
housing element not being adequate to meet the requirements of Section 65583.2 and to
accommodate the jurisdiction’s share of the regional housing need pursuant to Section 65584, the
jurisdiction may reduce the density on that parcel if it identifies sufficient additional, adequate, and
available sites with an equal or greater residential density in the jurisdiction so that there is no net
loss of residential unit capacity.
(2) If the approval of a development project results in fewer units by income category than identified in
the jurisdiction’s housing element for that parcel and the jurisdiction does not find that the remaining
sites in the housing element are adequate to accommodate the jurisdiction’s share of the regional
housing need by income level, the jurisdiction shall within 180 days identify and make available
additional adequate sites to accommodate the jurisdiction’s share of the regional housing need by
income level. Nothing in this section shall authorize a city, county, or city and county to disapprove a
housing development project on the basis that approval of the housing project would require
compliance with this paragraph.
Page 18
(d) The requirements of this section shall be in addition to any other law that may restrict or limit the
reduction of residential density.
(e) This section requires that a city, county, or city and county be solely responsible for compliance
with this section, unless a project applicant requests in his or her initial application, as submitted, a
density that would result in the remaining sites in the housing element not being adequate to
accommodate the jurisdiction’s share of the regional housing need pursuant to Section 65584. In that
case, the city, county, or city and county may require the project applicant to comply with this section.
The submission of an application for purposes of this subdivision does not depend on the application
being deemed complete or being accepted by the city, county, or city and county.
(f) This section shall not be construed to apply to parcels that, prior to January 1, 2003, were either
(1) subject to a development agreement, or (2) parcels for which an application for a subdivision map
had been submitted.
(g) (1) If the local jurisdiction has adopted a housing element for the current planning period that is in
substantial compliance with Article 10.6 (commencing with Section 65580) of Chapter 3, for purposes
of this section, “lower residential density” means the following:
(A) For sites on which the zoning designation permits residential use and that are identified in the
local jurisdiction’s housing element inventory described in paragraph (3) of subdivision (a) of Section
65583, fewer units on the site than were projected by the jurisdiction to be accommodated on the site
pursuant to subdivision (c) of Section 65583.2.
(B) For sites that have been or will be rezoned pursuant to the local jurisdiction’s housing element
program described in paragraph (1) of subdivision (c) of Section 65583, fewer units for the site than
were projected to be developed on the site in the housing element program.
(2) (A) If the local jurisdiction has not adopted a housing element for the current planning period
within 90 days of the deadline established by Section 65588 or the adopted housing element is not in
substantial compliance with Article 10.6 (commencing with Section 65580) of Chapter 3 within 180
days of the deadline established by Section 65588, “lower residential density” means any of the
following:
(i) For residentially zoned sites, a density that is lower than 80 percent of the maximum allowable
residential density for that parcel or 80 percent of the maximum density required by paragraph (3) of
subdivision (c) of Section 65583.2, whichever is greater.
(ii) For sites on which residential and nonresidential uses are permitted, a use that would result in the
development of fewer than 80 percent of the number of residential units that would be allowed under
the maximum residential density for the site parcel or 80 percent of the maximum density required by
paragraph (3) of subdivision (c) of Section 65583.2, whichever is greater.
(B) If the council of governments fails to complete a final housing need allocation pursuant to the
deadlines established by Section 65584.05, then for purposes of this paragraph, the deadline
pursuant to Section 65588 shall be extended by a time period equal to the number of days of delay
incurred by the council of governments in completing the final housing need allocation.
(h) An action that obligates a jurisdiction to identify and make available additional adequate sites for
residential development pursuant to this section creates no obligation under the California
Environmental Quality Act (Division 13 (commencing with Section 21000) of the Public Resources
Code) to identify, analyze, or mitigate the environmental impacts of that subsequent action to identify
and make available additional adequate sites as a reasonably foreseeable consequence of that
action. Nothing in this subdivision shall be construed as a determination as to whether or not the
subsequent action by a city, county, or city and county to identify and make available additional

adequate sites is a “project” for purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act (Division 13
(commencing with Section 21000) of the Public Resources Code).
(i) Notwithstanding Section 65803, this section shall also apply to a charter city.

Subject: Re: Reference: HEAB Meeting - Agenda Item 2 and General Plan Meeting - Agenda Item 2
Joel,
Given the wrong site inventory list has been on the Town’s website up to this very moment, and the lack
of clarity around the appropriate site inventory list, please include the attached site inventory list in the
HEAB and the General Plan Committee meeting package. I believe I have attached the correct one.
Also, given these numbers, the adjustment for the low-income units lost as a result of the N40 planned
development creates an even bigger deficit than outlined in my July 3 email to you.
It is important that both the GEAB and the General Plan Committee understand that more BMR sites
must be added to the site inventory now. I see no avenue for the Town to make the finding there are
sufficient parcels in the site inventory to accommodate the 6th cycle RHNA for all income categories
based on the substantial evidence in the record including the developers SB 330 application.
There is no reason why the Town should not add more BMR parcels given this fact pattern.
Thank you,
Phil Koen
