3. Consistency with Housing Element Programs:
Provide a description of how the Plan is consistent with the programs set forth in the
Local government’s Housing Element.
A key focus of South San Francisco's Housing Element is the preservation of
existing housing and neighborhoods to increase the availability of affordable
housing and assist persons experiencing or at risk of homelessness. The recent
General Plan update underscores this by stating, "The City of South San
Francisco encourages new housing production while also preserving affordable
housing and protecting vulnerable residents from housing instability and
displacement." To this end, the City is taking an active role in facilitating new
affordable housing construction by leveraging our local housing trust fund to
provide financial assistance to affordable developers with viable and
transformative projects in transit rich corridors. Likewise, the City is committed
to reducing homelessness has partnered with and provides financial assistance
to local nonprofits that provide a wide spectrum of services such as emergency
shelters and social services to address the needs of persons experiencing or at
risk of homelessness. In accordance with our Housing Element Programs EQ-6.3
and CRT 4.2, the City will leverage both locally generated Commercial Linkage
Fees and State funding programs such as PIP to increase funding available to
our local housing trust fund for these purposes. Over the past decade, South
San Francisco has witnessed a rise in single-room occupancy (SRO) hotel
closures and conversions. These SRO hotels provide crucial naturally occurring
affordable housing for low-income and extremely low-income residents. The loss

“State”) has established the Prohousing Incentive Program (“PIP” or the “Program” as
defined in Attachment C of the Guidelines) for Local Governments and Localities. This
Standard Agreement, along with all its exhibits (the “Agreement”), is entered into under
the authority of, and in furtherance of, the purpose of the Program. Pursuant to Health
and Safety Code Section 50470, subdivision (d) (“PIP Statute”), the Department has

In accordance with the authority cited above, the Grantee has been awarded financial
assistance in the form of a grant from the Program. The Department has agreed to
make the grant to provide financial assistance to accelerate housing production for
housing related projects and programs that assist in addressing the unmet housing
needs of their local communities pursuant to the terms of the PIP Statute, Guidelines
and NOFA, and Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) Statute and Guidelines,
and this Agreement. By entering into this Agreement and thereby accepting the award
of the Program funds, the Grantee agrees to comply with the terms and conditions of

3. Consistency with Housing Element Programs:
Provide a description of how the Plan is consistent with the programs set forth in the
Local government’s Housing Element.
A key focus of South San Francisco's Housing Element is the preservation of
existing housing and neighborhoods. The recent General Plan update
underscores this by stating, "The City of South San Francisco encourages new
housing production while also preserving affordable housing and protecting
vulnerable residents from housing instability and displacement." Over the past
decade, South San Francisco has witnessed a rise in single-room occupancy
(SRO) hotel closures and conversions. These SRO hotels provide crucial
naturally occurring affordable housing for low-income and extremely low-income
residents. The loss of SRO hotels has intensified the affordable housing crisis in
the city, prompting City Staff to intensify administrative, policy, and acquisition
efforts to safeguard this essential housing resource.
