Background/Analysis
California Government Code Sections 65100 and 65400(a)(2) require that local governments
submit a General Plan and Housing Element progress report to the local legislative body
(the City Council), the Governor's Office of Planning and Research (OPR), and the State of
California (State) Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) by April 1 of
each year. The purpose of the report is to detail the measures taken to implement the General
Plan over the past year as well as the progress made towards the City's Regional Housing Needs
Allocation (RHNA) and implementation activities identified in the adopted and certified Housing
Element. Residential permitting and construction activity is presented to OPR and HCD using

wy .cit ofreddin,. Yov/hm sin xdatatables_
The General Plan implementation activities conducted in 2024 are identified on pages three to
five of the attached APR report and the Housing Element report begins on page six. In
combination with the data forms required for submittal by HCD, the 2024 APR is intended to be
a comprehensive, yet easy to understand report, including:
• Summarizing activity which took place in the months following the adoption of the General
Plan 2045 (General Plan); and
• Providing a table format that includes identified surplus lands, entitlement application data,
Local Early Action Planning Grant reporting information, residential permitting data within
the 2024 calendar year, and progress made on activities found within the Housing Element.
As the data shows, two applications for multiple -family residential projects were submitted in
2024 for a combined total of 49 proposed units. In addition, a 16-lot single-family residential
subdivision was submitted in 2024. In addition to the aforementioned entitlement applications, in
2024, a total of 139 building permit applications for single-family residences were received, two
building permit applications for duplexes were received, and 32 building permit applications for
Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) were received. This represents an increase in residential
permit applications from the previous year.
The number of permits issued for residential units also increased in 2024, with a total of four
multiple -family developments obtaining permits for construction of a combined 112 units. Of
these units, 87 will be provided for households at the very low-income level, 23 will be provided
for households at the low-income level, and 12 will be provided to households at market -rate.
The City also issued 121 permits for single-family residences, two permits for duplexes, and 26
permits for ADUs in 2024. A total of 17 single-family permit applications, issued permits and/or
finaled permits in 2024 were Carr Fire replacement homes.
Planning staff conducted a market rate analysis to assess the affordability of ADUs constructed
in 2024. Owners who constructed ADUs in 2024 were surveyed by phone. Several respondents
stated that their units were being occupied at no cost by family members. This information is
presented in Appendix Table M. Other respondents provided a rental rate for their unit. In
addition to these responses, online listings for permitted ADUs built in prior years were factored
in with the data to determine that ADUs located in the City are offered at an average rental rate
of $2.00 per square -foot. Based on this rental rate and respondents who indicated that their
ADUs were occupied at no cost by family members, of the 23 ADUs obtaining final inspections
in 2024, four were affordable to extremely low-income or very low-income households, 12 were
affordable to lower -income households, six were affordable to moderate -income households, and
one was considered affordable to households at the above moderate -income level.
Report to Redding City Council March 12, 2025
Re: 4.4(a)--2024 Annual General Plan/Housing Element Progress Report Page 3
Based on permit valuations and a market rate study of single-family homes sold in the area, no
single-family homes could be demonstrated as affordable to very low-income, low-income, or
moderate -income households. High interest rates and the increased cost of construction, along
with inflation, are considered to be the primary reasons for the unaffordability of
newly -constructed, single-family dwellings.
At the midpoint of the 2020-2028 Housing Element cycle, it is important to note the City's
progress towards meeting the RHNA. Table B on the Housing Element Annual Progress Data
Tables, includes the RHNA for the current cycle by income level, the actual housing production
up to the 2024 midpoint, as well as the projected and needed rate of construction that would be
necessary to meet the targets at each income level. Overall, the data shows that levels of
permitting will need to remain steady or increase at the lower -income levels in order to fulfill the
housing needs projected for the 2020-2028 period. The above moderate -income level is expected
to have a surplus of dwelling units constructed by 2028. Consistently each year, in addition to
affordable multiple -family residential projects, ADUs have proven to be a valuable type of
residential dwelling unit towards meeting the moderate-, lower- and very low-income households
needs.
It should be noted that the Regional Housing Needs Allocation established for the City by HCD
on Table B on the Housing Element Annual Progress Data Tables is not a housing production
mandate. Therefore, the City is not expected to develop the number of housing units shown in
the table. Nevertheless, when new R 4NA numbers are issued, the City may have to account for
the shortfall from the previous cycle by creating capacity through zoning and removal of other
governmental constraints, if units are not constructed at the rate identified in RHNA.
Table H on the Housing Element Annual Data Tables is a comprehensive list of all surplus or
excess property owned by the City. Local agencies must annually report information about all
locally owned surplus land sites pursuant to California Government Code Section 54230, also
known as the Surplus Land Act, by utilizing the table provided by HCD.
Environmental Review
This is not a project as defined under the California Environmental Quality Act, and no further
action is required.

California law requires all jurisdictions to submit to their legislative bodies, by April 1, an annual
report on the status of the General Plan and progress toward its implementation. The report must
also be forwarded to the Governor's Office of Planning and Research (OPR) and the California
Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). Because the role of the General
Plan is to serve as the "constitution" for a community's land use and development activities, and
because it is required to be updated periodically to reflect current circumstances, it is critical that
local planning agencies periodically review the General Plan and its implementation. This
Annual Report is the appropriate tool for that review.
The information contained in this report satisfies both the overall General Plan and Housing
Element (Element) annual reporting requirements established by California Government Code
Section 65400. It allows interested persons and parties to compare the implementation programs
contained in the General Plan with those activities initiated and completed by the City since its
adoption.
The report is organized in the following manner:
GENERAL PLAN. The report summarizes action taken following the adoption of the 2045
General. Plan Update in March of 2024. Because the updated version of the General Plan
occurred during the reporting year, this report focuses on the few implementation measures taken
during that limited timeframe. Future reporting years will include all actionable implementation
measures contained in the General Plan 2045 and will detail the progress made toward
implementation since its adoption.
HOUSING ELEMENT. The report includes specific project and program activities conducted in
2024. In addition, all data requested by HCD on residential permitting and construction activity
is attached to the report for reference. The data is compiled and displayed using a table format
that is required by HCD.
2024 GENERAL PLAN/HOUSING ELEMENT ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT PAGE 1
The City of Redding General Plan 2045 (General Plan) was adopted on March 26, 2024. The
new version adopted in 2024 constituted a comprehensive update of all elements of the General
Plan with the exception of the Housing Element. The Housing Element is updated on its own,
separate cycle in accordance with State law. The State -required elements of a general plan
consist of Land Use, Circulation, Housing, Conservation, Open Space, Noise, Safety and
Environmental Justice (where applicable). In addition, the General Plan includes optional
elements: Public Facilities and Services, Parks, Trails and Recreation, Natural Resources,
Economic Development and Community Health, Wellness and Environmental Justice. In some
cases, the General Plan 2045 combines the required and optional elements into one element.
The Housing Annual. Progress Report is a report on the progress made towards the City's
Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) for the eight -year cycle. The data provided to HCD
and OPR is shared in an accessible dashboard available to the public and is used to track the
State's progress in addressing the housing crisis and housing affordability throughout all of
California. 2024 marked the midpoint of the City's Housing Cycle (2020-2028). This data is also
used to project whether the City is on track to meet the RHNA for the current cycle and
organizes this information by housing type and the affordability levels of housing units
constructed.
Local governments are required to keep their General Plan current and internally consistent.
There is no specific requirement that governs the timing of General Plan updates, with the
exception of the Housing Element, which is required to be updated every eight years. The City
of Redding's Housing Element was last updated and adopted on June 2, 2020.
The 2024 Annual Progress Report was presented to the Redding City Council on
March 18, 2025.
2024 GENERAL PLAN/HOUSING ELEMENT ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT PAGE 2
2024 ACTIVITY
With the adoption of a new, comprehensive General Plan update in 2024, new Goals, Objectives and
Policies which guide implementation activities for the next 20 years were established. Many of the
previous goals and policies were refined and carried forward. However, new policies and implementation
measures were also introduced. The seven Strategic Actions that are highlighted in the newly adopted
General Plan can be summarized as follows:
1. Continuing planning efforts to guide the development and redevelopment of the Downtown
Core, Riverfront Focus Area and Opportunity Areas.
2. Increasing efforts to attract new industries and talent to the area and retain high -paying jobs and
workforce.
3. Contributing to the quality of life in Redding by investing in cultural, recreational and open
space projects.
4. Focusing development efforts on building better neighborhoods.
5. Ensuring public and private development is well -designed, functional, complementary to
surrounding areas, and contributes a fair share to providing the necessary infrastructure.
6. Continuing to ensure infrastructure is planned, funded and constructed at expected standards.
7. Continuing to develop a transportation system of "complete streets" which recognizes
nonmotorized modes of transportation in addition to motorized transportation.
Numerous other goals and policies are included in the General Plan, many of which work to achieve
these Strategic Actions. Because there has not been a significant amount of time since the General Plan
was adopted, this report offers a summary of actions taken to further the Strategic Actions found in the
General Plan. Future Annual Reports will include a table which addresses progress made on each
actionable policy found in the General Plan. Despite the short amount of time passed, the City has made
progress in implementing General Plan policies since its adoption as reflected in the following
summarized progress report.
There were no applications for General Plan amendments in 2024; neither before nor after the adoption
of the current version of the General Plan 2045.
Notable activities that were started and/or completed in the months following the adoption of the General
Plan 2045 in 2024 include:
Downtown Specific Plan Implementation — As part of the Downtown Specific Plan (Plan) the City has
been implementing elements of the plan as major redevelopment projects are proceeding throughout
Downtown. Notably, in 2024 permits were issued for a mixed -use development with "The Rib Cage"
restaurant and 12 apartments on a key vacant infill lot of the Downtown Mixed Use District.
Downtown Redding Central Park — A goal of the Downtown Specific Plan is to establish a central park
in the downtown core area. The AHSC grants have allowed the City to partner with the development
team to establish a new park south of the Shasta College building along Market Street. Construction of
Whistle Stop Park was completed and the park was opened in June of 2024. Whistle Stop Park converted
the existing parking lot into a unique public plaza space and gathering area with a stage for community
performances and events, landscaping, a misting feature, lighting and more. The park was funded by a
combination of a grant from the Clean California program and Park Development Impact Fees.
Downtown Bike Loop — In 2024, the City completed the construction of a separated bike facility along
Trinity Street, Continental Street and Butte Street to connect the Sacramento River Trail and Diestelhorst
2024 GENERAL PLAN/HOUSING ELEMENT ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT PAGE 3
to Downtown trail improvements and complete the long -anticipated Downtown loop active transportation
network. This completes a four -mile loop around the river trail, across the Sacramento River, into
downtown and through. Turtle Bay across the iconic Sundial. Bridge. The project was funded through a
State grant that helped provide much of the redevelopment of the Downtown Core. This project furthers
General Plan policies which intend to improve transportation infrastructure that meets the diverse needs
of users of all ages, and to provide safe facilities for alternative modes of transportation consistent with
the Redding Active Transportation Plan.
Riverfront Specific Plan — Progress continued on the update of the Riverfront Specific Plan since the
adoption of the General Plan in 2024. In June of 2024, the Development Services Department and the
consultants retained to prepare the Riverfront Specific Plan hosted two public workshops. These provided
community members an opportunity to learn about the Vision and Guiding Principles Framework and
major findings from the existing conditions analysis, and to discuss and share ideas on emerging
opportunities and alternatives for the Northern and Southern Riverfront areas. In addition, online surveys
were conducted from August 8, 2024 to September 4, 2024 to reach a wider audience and to obtain
feedback on options and alternatives for the Riverfront Area.
River Crossing Marketplace Specific Plan — The implementation of the River Crossing Marketplace
Specific Plan (Plan) continued in 2024 with permits having been issued for various commercial retail and
restaurant businesses consistent with the Plan. The lots have been arranged to accommodate the complete
buildout of the Plan and the developer is working with potential tenants to complete construction, subject
to review by staff. Ultimately, construction of the entire Plan stands at around eighty percent (80%)
completion.
Shastina Ranch Park — Construction of road improvements and infrastructure for the Shastina Ranch
Park was completed in 2024. Shastina Ranch Park is the City's newest large neighborhood park. The
project is funded by Park Development Impact Fees generated in the residential multiple -family
subdivision area immediately surrounding the approximately 7.6-acre site. The park features play
elements made of natural materials, as well as a multi -purpose court, exercise equipment, zipline and
much more.
Affordable Housing Development — Development of the Center of Hope Apartments continued in 2024,
with construction of Units 1-3 of Phase I completed in August of 2024, and permits issued for
Buildings I and 2 of Phase II in November of 2024. The Center of Hope is an affordable housing project
which utilizes Tax Credits and CDBG funds administered by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD). In addition, Lowden Lane Apartments, a 61-unit affordable senior living facility,
obtained final permit approval in 2024. These projects continue to further General Plan objectives to
meet the housing needs of all citizens of Redding.
Prohousing Designation — In December of 2024, as part of incentivizing and accommodating the full
range of housing types identified in the General Plan 2045 and to help increase the supply of housing that
is affordable to all income levels, the City applied to the State Department of Housing and Community
Development for a Prohousing Designation. With this designation, the City is eligible for funding
through the Building Homes and Jobs Trust Fund and receives priority processing and grant funding
points when applying for numerous funding programs. These programs help the City fulfill a variety of
General Plan policies which seek to facilitate affordable housing projects and incentivize a greater variety
of housing supply in appropriate areas throughout the City.
Density Bonus Ordinance Updated — In November 2024, the City of Redding completed an update to
its Residential Density Bonus ordinance to update the provisions to apply density bonuses to projects and
bring the ordinance into conformance with State law. The Density Bonus serves as an effective tool for
2024 GENERAL PLAN/HOUSING ELEMENT ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT PAGE 4
developers to provide more residential units, along with projects that include units that are affordable at
very low-, low- and moderate -income levels. "The Rib Cage" mixed -use development in Downtown
utilized the residential density bonus to facilitate its development. The permit for "The Rib Cage" was
issued in November of 2024 and the project is under construction.
Community Wildfire Protection Plan — The Community Wildfire Protection Plan (CWPP) was drafted
in 2024 to update the Redding Fire Department's existing Fire Management plan. The overall objective
of the CWPP was to develop actionable projects that increase the wildfire resilience of the City and
surrounding communities. This effort includes objectives to identify wildfire risks; understand fire
behavior specific to Redding; address the intersection of human lives, property, critical infrastructure,
etc.; implement targeted outreach to residents to reduce hazards; and to recommend policy
improvements, public outreach and fuel management opportunities to effectively increase wildfire
preparedness and elevate the community's relationship with wildfire risk. The City Council adopted the
CWPP, which ultimately furthers implementation of several General Plan policies related to public safety
and protecting the community from wildfire hazards.
Emergency Evacuation Routes — Several public safety policies found within the General Plan require
an evaluation of existing evacuation routes pursuant to Assembly Bill 747 and Senate Bill 99. In 2024,
Development Services staff maintained discussions with the Fire Department to determine the best
course of action to conduct a comprehensive, Citywide assessment and evaluation of evacuation routes
and is currently exploring funding opportunities and methods of completing this effort.
2024 GENERAL PLAN/HOUSING ELEMENT ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT PAGE 5
The Housing Annual Progress Report submitted to the State Department of HCD and OPR includes
several tables with progress on housing development in the reporting year (2024). Table B below
represents progress made for the overall 2020-2028 Housing Element Cycle on the City fulfilling its
Regional Housing Needs Allocation during that timeframe. The numbers reflected in Table D represent
permits issued in the reporting year and organizes that data by affordability level of the units. Table D
below demonstrates the progress made on each implementation activity (or program implementation) in
the adopted housing plan. Table H below represents the maintained list of surplus land owned by the City
of Redding and identified in the 2020-2028 Housing Element. Many of the remaining tables are too large
to format into this report. Below is a summary of the 2024 housing development activity data included in
the tables provided to HCD and OPR.
Permit Applications in 2024 — The Development Services Department received applications for two
multiple -family residential projects consisting of a total of 49 units. One single-family subdivision
application was received which would provide 16 new residential lots if approved. All other permit
applications received were either single-family dwellings, duplexes or accessory dwelling units (ADUs).
In 2024 a total of 139 applications for single-family residences were received; two applications for
duplexes were received; and 32 applications for ADUs were received.
Permits Issued in 2024 — A total of four multiple -family developments obtained permits in 2024 for
construction of a combined 112 units. Of these units, 87 will be provided for households at the
very low-income level, 23 will be provided for households at the low-income level and 12 will be
provided to households at the market rate. The City also issued 121 permits for single-family residences,
two permits for duplexes, and 26 permits for ADUs in 2024.
Permits Finaled in 2024 — Construction was completed and final permit approvals granted for four
different multiple -family developments in 2024 for a combined total of 82 units built. Of these multiple -
family units constructed, 47 are provided to households at a very -low income level, one is provided to a
household at the low-income level and 34 are provided at market rate. In addition, construction was
finaled for 143 single-family residences and 23 ADUs in 2024.
