Consulting Services Agreement between City of San Leandro and Last revised 07/02/2021 Rincon Consultants for Housing Element Update and EIR Exhibit A – Page 13 of 21 General Plan elements, the Housing Element will be formatted to match the style and layout of the San Leandro 2035 General Plan. We assume that the City can provide the MS Word file for one of the General Plan elements for Rincon’s use, and we will not need to convert the files for style and formatting purposes. Our timeline and budget assume one round of review by City staff. The Administrative Draft Housing Element will be provided in Word and PDF versions. We assume one round of review on the draft Housing Element. Public Review Draft Housing Element We will incorporate staff comments to formulate the public review draft Housing Element to be reviewed by City decision makers prior to submitting to HCD for review. We will work with City staff to compile a list of stakeholders and agencies/organizations to receive notification o f the availability of the draft Housing Element. Public Hearings The Rincon team will attend up to two Planning Commission and City Council meetings to discuss the draft Housing Element. We anticipate these meetings will be a combination of study sessions and public hearings to inform decisionmakers about the housing element process, discuss site selection strategies and challenges, and to present the Draft Housing Element prior to submitting to HCD for their review. Deliverables: Administrative Draft and Draft Housing Element, and Presentations Task M. Final Draft Hearings, Final Adoption and Certification Final Draft Housing Element Following HCD review, the Rincon team will incorporate comments received from HCD and the general public to formulate the Final Housing Element prior to City Council adoption. HCD Certification HCD review of the Draft Housing Element is mandatory. During the review, we will work to address all HCD comments and will communicate with HCD and facilitate review of the revisions via revised pages. All revisions made to the Draft Housing Element will be shown as tracked changes. The goal is to secure a Finding of Substantial Compliance on the Draft Element before proceeding to adoption. This way, final certification will be contingen t upon adopting the Housing Element as revised and reviewed by HCD and the City would avoid adopting a Housing Element that does not completely meet HCD requirements and needing to repeat the review and adoption process again. Throughout the HCD review process, the Rincon team will maintain contact with HCD staff via email and phone calls regarding the City’s progress, key issues to be addressed, and alternative approaches to compliance. After adoption, the Housing Element must be submitted to HCD for its final review within 90 days. We have assumed 36 staff hours for this task. If more time is required, we will work with the City to figure out the most efficient path to HCD certification. DocuSign Envelope ID: 52DE9C19-FF3F-4BE0-99DB-BF80F1BD0FBC
