SUBJECT: 4.4(a)--2025 Annual General Plan/Housing Element Progress Report
Recommendation
Authorize and approve the following:
(1) Accept the 2025 City of Redding General Plan/Housing Element Annual Progress
Report; and
(2) Direct staff to forward the document to the Governor's Office of Planning and Research,
and the State of California Department of Housing and Community Development.
Fiscal Impact
There is no f scal impact associated with the acceptance of the 2025 General Plan/Housing
Element Annual Progress Report(APR or Report).
Alter�native Action
The City Council (Council) could choose to not accept the APR and direct staff to revise the
report. In this case, the City of Redding (City)may not be able to meet statutory requirements for
submission to the aforementioned state agencies by the April 1, 2026 deadline without a special
meeting.
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 Governar'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 report details 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 aetivity is presented to OPR and HCD using reguired

submittal forms provided by the State. These forms constitute the City of Redding 2025 Housing
Element Annual Progress Report ("APR") proposed for City Council's acceptance and can be
viewed online at: ��uw,�a���fi�dd�� e a�vl��rat� ���l��z�iz� dc����ent�
Appendix Tables M and N which support the data findings in the APR are included in this report
as attachments.
The notable General Plan implementation activities conducted in 2025 are discussed on pages
four through six of the report. The Housing Element report begins on page six. In combination
with the data forms required for submittal by HCD, the 2025 progress report is intended to be a
comprehensive yet easy to understand report, which includes:
• Summary of activity which took place �ollowing the adoption of the General Plan 2045
(General Plan) in 2024; and
• A table format that identifies entitlement application data, LEAP Grant reporting
information, residential building permit data within the 2025 calendar year and progress
made on activities can be found within the Housing Element.
Permit Applications
As the data shows, three entitlement applications for multiple family residential projects were
submitted in 2025 for a combined total of 85 proposed units. Two single-family residential
subdivision applications were received which would provide 216 new residential lots when
completed. A11 other building permit applications received were either single-family dwellings,
or accessory dwelling units (ADUs). In 2025 a total of 187 building permit applications for
single-family residences were received and 33 building permit applications for ADUs were
received. This marked a (35%) increase in single-family residential building permits from the
prior year and a relatively steady rate of ADU building permit applications from year to year
with just one additional ADU application in 2025.
Permits Issued
Although there was some permit application activity for multiple-family residential projects, no
permits for construction of multiple-family developments were issued in 2025. The only type of
permits issued for construction in 2025 were for single-family residential units and ADUs. There
was a total of 175 issued permits for single-family residences and 26 permits for ADUs in 2025.
Of the 26 ADUs issued permits in 2025, 1 was affordable to extremely low-income households,
five (5) were affordable to lower-income households, 19 were affordable to moderate-income
households and 1 was at the above-moderate income level. Similar to application numbers
increasing in 2025 from the previous year, there was a marked (45%) increase in single-family
residential building permits issued from the prior year. 2025 also matched the prior year's steady
rate of ADU permit applications from year to year with the same number of building permits
being issued.
Permits Finalized
Construction was completed and final permit approvals granted for the Piper Way Senior
Apartments in 2025 for a total of 59 units built. Eaeh of the Piper Way Senior Apartment units
are provided to households at a very-low income level. In addition, construction was finaled for
182 single-family residences and 27 ADUs in 2025. The trend of permit numbers inereasing in
2025 from the previous year continued for single-family residences with an increase of 27% in
single-family residences constructed. ADUs saw a slight inerease in completed permits for
construction in 2025 with a 13% increase from 2024.
Report to Redding City Council March 12,2026
Re: 4.4(a)--2025 Annual General Plan/Housing Element Progress Report Page 3
Planning staff conducted a market rate analysis to assess the affordability of ADUs constructed
in 2025. Owners who constructed ADUs in 2025 were surveyed by phone. Several respondents
stated that their units were being occupied at no cost for 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$2.58 per square foot, an increase from $2.00 per square foot last year. Based on this rental
rate and respondents who indicated that their ADUs were occupied at no cost for family
members, of the 27 ADUs granted certificates of occupancy in 2025, 10 were affordable to
extremely low-income or very low-income households, nine were affordable to lower-income
households, seven were affordable to moderate-income households and one was considered
affordable to households at the above moderate level.
A year past the midpoint of the 2020-2028 Housing Element cycle, a clearer picture is emerging
of the City's progress towards meeting the RHNA. Table B and Graph 1 found in the attached
report shows the RHNA for the current cycle by income level, the actual housing production up
to the current year (2025), 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 the rate of
permitting will need to increase at the moderate-, lower-, very low- and extremely low-income
levels in order to fulfill the housing needs projected for the 2020-2028 period. The above
moderate-income is expected to have a surplus of dwelling units constructed by 2028 at current
rates and based on the high number of new single-family building permit applications.
Consistently each year, in addition to affordable multiple family residential projects, ADUs have
proven to be a valuable type of residential dwelling unit for counting towards meeting the
moderate-, lower- and very low-income households needs.
It should be noted that the Regional Housing Needs A1location established for Redding by HCD
(Table B) 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 RHNA numbers are issued,
the City will 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 R�1NA.
Envir�onmental Review
This is not a project as de�ned under the California Environmental Quality Act, and no further
action is required.
Council Pr�ioNity/City Manager Goals

PURPOSE OF THE ANNUAL REPORT
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 Governar'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
1oca1 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 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:
GENE�L PLAN. The report summarizes action taken following the adoption of the 2045
General P1an Update in March of 2024. The current version of the General Plan was updated less
than two years ago. Because it has been less than two years since the adoption of the 20-year
plan, this report focuses on a consolidated version of implementation measures that staff has
identified. Upon further assessment, future reporting years may include any other actionable
implementation measures contained in the General Plan 2045 and will detail the progress made
toward implementation since its adoption.
HousING ELEM�NT. The report includes specific project and program activities conducted in
2025. In addition, a11 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 and has been updated for the year 2025.
2O2S GENERAL PLAN�HOUSING ELEMENT ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT PAGE 1
GENERAL BACKGROUND
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 IHousing Element. The �Iousing 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. Most notably, permit and
project data for housing developments submitted to the City, issued by the City and completed in
2025 are included in an organized excel file. 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. This data is
also used to project whether the City is on track to meet the RIHNA 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 �ight years. The City
of Redding`s Housing Element was last updated and adopted on June 2, 2020. 2025 marks the
first year beyond the midpoint of this 6th Housing Cycle (2020-2028). The current expectation is
that the City wi11 receive RHNA for the next cycle (2028-2036) in Spring of 2027.
The 2025 Annual Progress Report was presented to the Redding City Couneil on
1Vlarch 17, 2026.

2025 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 re�ned 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
proj ects.
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. In addition to the Table 1 — General Plan Implementation included in this report, this
report offers a summary of actions taken to further the Strategic Actions found in the General P1an. Table 1
—General Plan Implementation addresses progress made on a concise version of 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 two applications for General Plan amendments in 2025. One would amend the General Plan
designation of property from General Commercial to General Industrial to accommodate an outdoor
contractor's storage yard at 7520 Lockheed Drive. This amendment has yet to go before the Planning
Commission or City Council for consideration d�ue to application completeness issues. The application is in
progress and set to go before the Planning Commission in the next couple of months. The other would
amend the General Plan designation of property leased by the County of Shasta from General Industrial to
Public Facilities at 7251 Eastside Road. This application went before the Planning Commission who voted
3-1 not to make a recommendation to the City Council. Because a quorum could not be reached the
application has been placed on hold and further action to forward the report of the Planning Commission's
action to the City Council may be withdrawn by the County.
Notable activities that were started and/or completed following the adoption of the General Plan 2045 in
2025 include:
Downtown Specific Plan Implementation — As part of the Downtown Specific Plan (Plan) the City has
been implementing elements of the plan as major public and private projects are proceeding throughout
Downtown. Notably, in 2025 permitted construction commenced 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 and
construction was completed for The Redding Public Market in a crucial ground-floor space on Market
Street.
2025 GENERAL PLAN�HOUSING ELEMENT ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT PAGE 3
Downtown Bike Loop — In 2025, the City completed the construction of a separated bike facility along
California Street which connects to the Sacramento River Trail and Diestelhorst to Downtown trail
improvements and enhances access to Downtown businesses from the long-anticipated Downtown loop
active transportation network — 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 February of 2025, the Director of Development Services gave an
oral report on the status of the plan and in May of 2025, the Director presented emerging concepts from the
public engagement efforts to the City Council. Later on in the year, in November 2025, the Director
presented a more formal version of the emerging concepts from all public engagement and sought
authorization of staff to move forward on the completion of the plan including the drafting of specific
language and initiating the environmental review process. Staff did receive authorization from City
Council to move forward on preparing the draft plan and beginning the Environmental Impact Report
(EIR). Staff wi11 have inore to report in the 2026 Annual Progress Report this time next year as it is
anticipated that the overall project timeline will be completed in 2026.
Stillwater Business Park—In 2025, permits for the Frito Lay warehouse and office facility were finaled.
In addition, with the issuance of permits, construction began for the Amazon fulfillment center in the park.
2025 marked another year of marketing vacant parcels to potential buyers who would bring the right type
of innovative developments and industry to the City. Several vacant lots in Stillwater Business Park lots
were sold or entered escrow in 2025 and a couple are in the process of exploring the permit process to
construct welcomed additions to the Business Park.
Prohousing Designation — In 2025, the City continued its efforts to gain designation as a Prohousing
Comm�unity by the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). This effort began
in 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. 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. The City Housing Department has been meeting the requests of HCD Staff and is close to �nalizing
an application in the coming months.
Housing Opportunity Overlay District—In December 2025, the City of Redding completed Activity 2.5
in the Housing Element to update the zoning ordinance for consistency with State law which requires by-
right approval of affordable housing projects at 20-units-per-acre density on sites that have been identified
in two consecutive Housing Element cycles. To facilitate this, an overlay district was enacted which
applies to the identified sites via a map amendment. The Housing Opportunity Overlay District is intended
to provide greater feasibility in developing properties that have been deemed appropriate for multiple-
family residential development which would provide units at levels of very low- and low-income
household affordability levels.
2025 GENERAL PLAN�HOUSING ELEMENT ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT PAGE 4
Accessory Dwelling Unit Ordinance Update — In December 2025, the City o� Redding completed
Activity 2.6 in the Housing Element to update Section 18.43.140 (Accessory Dwelling Units) of the zoning
ordinance for consistency with State 1aw. The key changes in this update include expanded opportunity for
more ADUs on a single-family residential lot as we11 as additional ADUs (up to 8) on multiple-family
residential lots. Various aspects of the code were modified for clarity. In addition, changes allowed greater
flexibility in the height and setback limitation of ADUs. ADUs continue to be a key source in
homeowners' ability to provide af�ordable living options to their family members and for rent to lower-
and moderate-income households.
New Residential Subdivisions — The year 2025 saw a fair amount of single-family residential
neighborhoods in the Quartz Hill area obtain approvals for a total of 235 future units (The Cottages - 55,
Brentwood - 60 and The Peaks - 120). A 16-unit small lot subdivision (Zinco) was approved in the Lake
Boulevard area in 2025 as we1L In addition, The Vistas subdivision for 65 residential units in the Quartz
Hill area began construction of improvements in 2025 with the intention to record the final map. Actual
home construction in the Salt Creek Heights and Shastina Ranch subdivisions continued with many of the
single-family home construction in 2025 being located within these neighborhoods.
Emergency Evacuation Routes — Public safety policies found within the General Plan require an
evaluation of existing evacuation routes pursuant to Asseinbly Bill 747 and Senate Bill 99. In 2025, a
Request for Proposals was released by the Development Services Department and Kittleson & Associates,
Inc. was contracted to conduct a coinprehensive, Citywide assessment and evaluation of evacuation routes
and prepare an annex to the City's Emergency Operations Plan. The Emergency Evacuation Assessment
and Annex is currently identifying analysis scenarios in cooperation with City, County and State
emergency operations authorities.

2025 RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT PROGRESS REPORT
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 (2025). Table B below represents
progress made for the overall 2020-2028 Housing Element Cyc1e on the City fulfilling its Regional
Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) during that timeframe. Table B provides the number of permits issued
in the reporting year and organizes that data by affordability 1eve1 of the units. Those numbers are also
reflected in the line graph (Graph 1) included as a visual representation of progress made on the RHNA to
date for permits issued compared to the number of issued permits that would be needed at the end of the
Cycle and also shows the trajectory needed to meet the RHNA over the remainder of the Cycle. Table D
below demonstrates the progress made on each implementation activity (or prograin 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 and oftentimes do not apply to the City where there is nothing to report in the
year 2025 on certain categories. Below is a summary of the 2025 housing development activity data
included in the tables provided to HCD and OPR.
Permit Applications in 2025 — The Development Services Department received applications for 3
inultiple-�amily residential projects consisting of a total of 85 units. Two single-family subdivision
applications were received which would provide 216 new residential lots when recorded. All other permit
applications received were either single-family dwellings, or accessory dwelling units (ADUs). In 2025 a
total of 187 applications for single-family residences were received and 33 applications for ADIJs were
received.
Permits Issued in 2025 — Although there was some permit application activity for multiple-family
projects, no permits for construction of multiple-family developments were issued in 2025. The only type
of permits issued for construction in 2025 were for single-family residential units and ADUs. There were a
total of 175 issued permits for single-family residences and 26 permits for ADUs in 2025. Of the 26 ADUs
per�nits issued in 2025, 1 was affordable to extremely low-income households, 5 were affordable to lower-
income households, 19 were affordable to moderate-income households and 1 was at the above-moderate
income level.
Permits Finaled in 2025 — Construction was completed and final permit approvals granted for the Piper
Way Senior Apartments in 2025 for a total of 59 units built. Each of the Piper Way Senior Apartment units
are provided to households at a very low-income level. In addition, construction was finaled for 182 single-
family residences and 27 ADUs in 2025. Of the 27 ADUs constructed in 2025, 10 were rented to family or
friends at no cost and are therefore reported as affordable at the extremely low household income level.
Based on a market rate study, 10 completed ADUs are affordable at the lower-income household level, and
7 are affordable at a moderate-income household level. Without data for individual sales prices for any
single-family residence constructed in 2025, it is assumed that single-family residences are only affordable
to households categorized as above-moderate income level.

The policies of each element of the General Plan provide the basis for this implementation program
(Program). The Program measures that follow, which may paraphrase adopted policy, describe the
proposed action to be taken. The Program measures listed and brief status update of the implementation
measures are limited only to those with which the Department of Development Services has the primary
responsibility for carrying out the individual actions. Future General Plan reports will expand the
Program measures which are reported on by including other Departments in the process early in the
process. A specific implementation time frame is not provided as implementation wi11 be guided
principally by staff availability and funding resources in addition to general prioritization. Clearly if
grant or other funding becomes available for implementation priorities wi11 be scheduled to take
advantage of those opportunities. Policies that are implemented during the course of everyday work,
such as through the development review process, are not included as implementation measures. Policies
directing routine update and implementation of the Parks, Trails Open Space Master Plan are also not
included. Note that the implementation program for the Housing Element is contained in that Element.
