Approve Disposition and Development Agreement and CEQA Exemptions for Development of Affordable Housing and a Health Care Facility on County Land at 3177 Ocean View Boulevard, San Diego (District: 1)
End
Overview
For many years, the San Diego region has faced a chronic shortage of affordable housing units that directly impacts housing insecurity and housing cost burden for lower-income households. Given this housing crisis, we must leverage every available option to develop more affordable housing. One of these options that has had success is the redevelopment of excess County of San Diego (County)-owned property into affordable homes. Since 2017, the County has made significant progress in developing affordable housing on County-owned excess property. There are currently 12 County-owned surplus properties in various stages of the development pipeline for affordable homes, including 3177 Ocean View Boulevard in the City of San Diego.
On April 4, 2023 (30), the Board of Supervisors (Board) declared the land surplus and authorized the issuance of a Request for Proposals to identify one or more developers for the ground lease and development of affordable homes and a health care facility on County-owned property located at 3177 Ocean View Boulevard. BRIDGE Housing Corporation was selected as the developer for 100% affordable housing, in partnership with San Ysidro Health as the health care facility operator. County staff have finalized the terms of the Disposition and Development Agreement (DDA) and related documents and are now returning for approval of those agreements. Today's request is for Board approval of the DDA, regulatory agreement, ground leases, restrictive covenant, and the relevant California Environmental Quality Act finding.
