Submitted by Councilmember McKeon - Oppose RHNA Mandate and Adopt an Ordinance to Ban Builder’s Remedy Developments
body
Recommended Action:
recommendation
Authorize the City Attorney to:
1. Challenge the State‘s RHNA mandate for Huntington Beach, including its validity and any laws in support of such a mandate over the City as a Charter City, by taking whatever legal action is required; and
2. Return to City Council at the City Attorney's earliest convenience with an ordinance banning "Builder’s Remedy" developments from taking place in Huntington Beach. Development without proper approvals is already not legal in the City, but this Ordinance is essential to make it clear to the entire community that Huntington Beach will fight any developer that seeks to develop pursuant to "Builder’s Remedy" laws.
