Chairman Pro Tem Overholt called the regular meeting of the Anaheim Housing
Authority to order at 10:04 a.m.
MINUTES: Authority Member Kaywood moved to approve the minutes of the regular
meeting held November 27, 1984 and to continue approval of the minutes of
April 16, 1985 for one week. Authority Member Roth was absent. MOTION
CARRIED.
FINANCIAL DEMANDS AGAINST THE ANAHEIM HOUSING AUTHORITY in the amount of
$3,729.41, in accordance with the 1984'85 Budget, were approved.
177/123: PILOT PROGRAM - CALIFORNIA HOUSING FINANCE AGENCY (CHFA) SECOND UNIT
FINANCING PROGRAM: Authorizing the execution of a standard agreement and
other documents to secure a commitment of funds from the California Housing
Finance Agency, for a pilot program for Second Unit Financing.
Authority Member Kaywood noted staff report dated April 23, 1985 from the
Community Development Department attached to which was Exhibit "A" indicating
that throughout the City, 60 percent of the homes would be eligible to have a
second unit, which to her was a frightening concept.
Norm Priest, Director of Planning and Community Development, explained the
intent was not to double density. The funding program applied to lots already
zoned multi-family where no variances or special permits would be required.
Staff would not be submitting each case for approval individually since it
only involved funding and the unit would also be within Code. It would be no
different than any other owner in the City who wanted to build a second unit
on his parcel where the Code permitted him to do so.
Lisa Stipkovich, Executive Director of Community Development, answering
Authority Member Kaywood explained relative to the 60 percent figure, she did
not know where the Planning Department came up with that number, but with no
variances whatsoever that would drop significantly. If currently in a
multi-family zone but now occupied by single-family, that was the case where
they were saying a second unit could be added if the parking and setback
requirements could be met. Relative to the sufficiency of infrastructure, if
an area was already zoned multiple family, she assumed that the infrastructure
would support the additional unit; Authority Member Kaywood asked that that be
checked.

Authority Member Bay stared in his opinion this was a new policy direction
whether intended or not to promote what he considered more HUD social
engineering coming out of Sacramento, which would add density to land use
while encouraging and promoting second unit rental housing outside of the
"granny" unit program. The proposal, which he would not support, would
encourage low income rentals, one-bedroom units preferred to be built as
second units on current land that may have one home on it and to use
multi-unit zoning. Looking at the objective, he did not agree with the theory.
Ghairman Pro Tem Overholt suggested that staff would withdraw the matter and
reschedule it for full Authority action.
Mr. Priest thereupon withdrew the subject agreement with CHFA for a private
program for second unit financing to be resubmitted in one week for full
Authority action.
ADJOURNMENT: Authority Member Kaywood moved to adjourn. Authority Member
Pickier seconded the motion. Authority Member Roth was absent. MOTION
CARRIED. (10:12 a.m.)
