NOW, THEREFORE, San Bernardino Associated Governments does resolve as follows: 1. That the Southern California Association of Governments and its appropriate policy committees review and modify the current Regional Housing Allocation Model so that affordable housing allocations reflect the same equitable fair share contribution throughout the region. 2. That the Southern California Association of Governments allbw those jurisdictions with allocations of affordable housing in excess of the regional norm to apply those units to the moderate and upper income categories; if so desired. 3. That local SCAG '82 growth estimates for the period between 1980 and 2000 need to be adjusted to reflect short-term growth trends while maintaining overall subregional population and housing totals for the year 2000. 4. That the Mayor forward these recommendations to San Bernardino Associated Governments' member jurisdictions and to the Southern California Association of Governments for consideration, action, and implementation. Resolution No. 83-113 Page 2 PASSED, APPROVED, and ADOPTED this 6th day of July, 1983. AYES: Dahl, Buquet, Schlosser, Frost, Mikels NOES: None ABSENT: None ATTEST: ~~ity Clerk
