5 5 tate of Utah INSTRUCTIONS (2 OF 3): The following pages contain two (2) parts that pertain to UCA 10-9a-103(b) and UCA 10-9a-408. Part I consists of eight (8) sections that require the report's preparer to revise 5-year estimates of the municipality's housing needs. The report's preparer will need to download data from the U.S. Census Bureau's FactFinder website to complete this part of the form. Part II consists of seven (7) sections that will require the preparer to review city ordinances, existing plans, and compile records from multiple sources, including: The municipality's various departments, affiliated development agencies, interlocal cooperatives, associations of government, public housing authorities, and/or county assessors. NOTE: Reporting the findings of a biennial moderate-income housing review is a time intensive process. Municipalities should set-aside sufficient time to prepare an adequate report. The Utah Housing and Community Development Division has developed this form to assist municipal governments with their biennial reporting obligations. Nonetheless, a preparer of the biennial report is expected to have a basic knowledge of planning principles, a familiarity with demographic methods, and an understanding of state laws governing moderate-income housing as well as applicable municipal ordinances. PART I: REVISED ESTIMATES OF 5-YEAR MODERATE-INCOME HOUSING NEEDS In accordance with UCA 10-9a-103(b ), please complete the tables in the following sections to revise estimates of the municipality's 5-year moderate-income housing needs. The report's preparer should use the advanced search functions of the U.S. Census Bureau's American FactFinder website to look up tabulated values from the American Community Survey (ACS). Specific ACS tables are listed in each table to aid searches. FactFinder tutorials are widely available on the internet, including HCDD's website: moderate/index.html. Municipalities should use 5-year ACS estimates, but they may determine for themselves whether to use 3-year or 1-year estimates if available and appropriate. Alternatively, municipalities may use the most recent estimates and projections generated by the Utah Population Estimates Committee. Municipalities may use compound annual growth rate, average annual growth rate, trend analysis, or a more sophisticated estimating technique of their choice to estimate their 5-year moderate-income housing needs.

Usina the calculations above, exolain the municioalitv's current and oroiected housina needs. Currently the ACS estimates a need for 856 units for moderate income households. Of these units, 417 would need to be affordable to low-income households and 164 would need to be affordable to extremely low-income households. By the year 2023 the ACS estimates the City of Bluffdale will have an estimated demand for 932 moderate-income housing units, 455 of which would be needed for low-income households and 179 of which would be needed for extremely low-income households. The City of Bluffdale currently has 1,505 units affordable to moderate-income households. Of these, 70 non-restricted units and 336 income-restricted units are affordable to low-income households. The 336 income-restricted units receive incentives from three of the city's EDA and RDA bodies pursuant to state statute. The Moderate Income Housing Element (pg. 3 1) of Bluffdale' s General Plan (adopted March 25, 2014) sets a target for 20% of new units to be affordable to moderate-income households. If this target is met, an estimated additional 4 13 affordable units will be available by 2023 which would bring the city's supply to 1,9 18 units. Since the previous biennium, 1,202 multi-family units have received approval and are currently (or soon to be) under constrnction.
