Document Description
On November 18, 2025 and December 16, 2025, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors (Board), approved and authorized the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), or her designee, to execute a Purchase Sale Agreement (PSA) for the 28,568-square-foot (0.65-acre) property located at 1101 to 1157 Long Beach Boulevard in the Downtown area of the City of Long Beach and to establish and approve an affordable housing project as discussed below (this is the current project). The Metro A-Line (formerly Blue line) light rail runs along Long Beach Boulevard adjacent to the site with a stop 150 feet to the north). The purchase is part of the CEO-HI (CEO-Homeless Initiative) Land Bank Pilot Program. The Board established the Pilot Program on June 14, 2022, to create new opportunities for affordable housing in areas experiencing and set to experience rapid gentrification and displacement. The project would include an approximately 90-foot-tall affordable housing development with up to 160 units, up to 5:1 FAR and parking in accordance with code; the project could also include 2,800 square feet of community-serving commercial space and an approximately 3,000-square-foot community room and/or amenity space primarily to serve project residents. The property would include minor landscaping and low-level security lighting. The site is currently an unpaved graded vacant lot. (The site was previously occupied by a variety of residential and commercial uses through about 2020.) Subsurface parking is not anticipated. The proposed building foundation design and construction method have not been identified but could include localized foundation piles extending to some depth. However, the quantity of earth that would be disturbed is anticipated to be relatively minor. Construction is anticipated to take about 24 months. The project would be consistent with the Housing Element, the Land Use Element and the Downtown Plan. The current project would not increase impacts as compared to those evaluated in the Downtown Plan EIR and the Land Use and Urban Design Element EIR
