Zoning for affordable housing

The zoning for affordable housing ordinance aims to promote densification by allowing duplexes on small lots near transit corridors.

like the zoning for affordable housing um really help to bump up the numbers to get us closer

what the purpose of this Zoning for Affordable Housing Ordinance was, if there is no benefit.

Just in terms of a supply side, we're creating more supply by allowing more density, by allowing more height.

This is stuff that we give people through site review to let them build more homes

recent zoning reforms, especially Inclusionary Housing Program, encourages the building of affordable units.

automatically you would get a density bonus. automatically you would get faster through the approval process

there were some special zoning things that provided, for example, like, density bonuses if they provided additional affordability

as part of the zoning for affordable housing zoning changes, the R2 zoning on this site has been subject to a floor area ratio maximum.

The only zone in the city that actually kind of got downzoned as a result of it was RH2, which is where this is.

the family-friendly vibrant neighborhoods project, and the zoning for affordable housing project.

The RMX2 zoning allows 10 units per acre, with a density bonus for affordable housing

it actually was a change we had recently made in the zoning for affordable housing project.

the zoning for affordable housing that Council adopted is the most recent vision for this area

Council adopted the ordinance on February 6th um to allow for implementation of the project

what was done as part of the Zoning for affordable housing project uh from 2023 um that seeks to expand housing choice

This is exactly what the code changes for zoning, for affordable housing.

the Zoning for affordable housing project did allow triplexes but it would be on a much larger lot

kind of moving on from the Zoning for affordable housing project which really focused more on industrial areas of the City

this project grew out of the Zoning for affordable housing project uh the last time that we discussed this before Council

there was a fair amount of support for adding housing, I think, with the zoning for affordable housing project

It grew out of the zoning for affordable housing project, where we brought the last ordinance to make changes to our zoning

particularly when we add the 10% um for the density bonus that we'll be seeking in the rmx2 so that's 40%

to meet the requirement in rmx2 Zoning for the density bonus this is a total of 40% restricted

the density bonus requires the site review criteria to be met and for increasing percentages of affordable housing to be provided

a summary of the Zoning for affordable housing project that was done last year

so just loosening up zoning to allow those types of housing types types that are currently restricted in some areas

the problem statement that is pretty much the same as the Zoning for affordable housing project

I can never remember the rest of it zoning for affordable housing.

So there's been a lot of community engagement on these topics extending from the zoning for affordable housing project.

How we evolved from the zoning for affordable housing project to the current family friendly, vibrant neighborhoods.

We expect it basically grows out of the prior zoning for affordable housing project.

we did away with that as part of the um Zoning for affordable housing code update

This is what used to be called zoning for affordable housing, and it's something that council has passed

The affordable housing is required as part of the site review for them to get the density bonus period.

it is not a by right density. it's a density bonus that may be provided.

The density bonus requires the Site Review criteria to be met, and for increasing percentages of affordable housing to be provided

about the new, the the newest iteration of zoning for affordable housing, whatever it's called family friendly.

this is just kind of the evolution of the zoning for affordable housing project into what we're now calling

we have the zoning for affordable housing phase, 2 scoping.

more flexibility for housing types in the Zoning for affordable housing project

With the zoning for affordable housing, they removed the per unit open space far specifically to allow more residential units throughout the city

but it is exactly what the Council was encouraging in the zoning for affordable housing.

our concept plan responds to the community's recent adoption for zoning, for affordable housing code changes that makes possible

to give us an update on zoning for affordable housing

we have zoning for affordable housing next month

Ordinance did change the Rl. Zones. In respect to allowing duplexes and triplexes.

our second item is related to the Zoning for affordable housing phase two project before we go into our work items

the purpose of tonight is to come back to Council on phase two of the Zoning for affordable housing project

last we talked about the Zoning for affordable housing project was fall of last year when Council adopted

lower than a 2.0 F the this Council approved a couple of months ago when they approved the Zoning for affordable housing

the zoning for affordable housing. 2 is a work plan. Item. So it should actually be.

Having this embrace and aligned with new policies, such as zoning for affordable housing.

reduce or eliminate lot area per dwelling unit calculations in all capitalized zones.

we can marry the new data with zoning afford, with zoning changes that might bring us more diverse housing stock than we are getting

you know. when we did, when we did the zoning for affordable housing. What we approved was allowing triplexes on larger lots.

Well, I think there both of these items, both the the zoning for affordable housing 2 and the combination of Parking, Tdm and Npv.

the kind of creativity that staff exercised with the zoning for affordable housing pro program

And I think this is where in particular with some of the zoning for affordable housing. Code updates that were occurring

We also had zoning for affordable housing which provided flexibility for more housing types.

as part of the zoning for affordable housing code changes, which were adopted by council

and dividing it up into smaller units and selling them. That's not supported by zoning for affordable housing.

Wasn't that zoning for affordable housing? Oh, maybe it was okay.

that missing middle as a housing type continue can continue to be addressed through the Zoning for affordable housing project

when we did in the zoning for affordable housing, reduce some of those onsite open space requirements for certain types of multifamily development.

I think the, zoning for affordable housing and everything that

Study with the new zoning for affordable housing changes.

I had a discussion with staff regarding zoning for affordable housing and there was some change to the minimum

If the zoning for affordable housing passes and we are able to do more duplexes and triplexes in single-family neighborhoods.

could our third reading be a public hearing as to the things that we're adding tonight

to help ensure that our affordable developments are sort of more competitive in the marketplace

the only thing missing from the Zoning for affordable housing project is affordability

I believe that that ordinance, as currently written, exempts projects that are 100% affordable housing from site review.

if the zoning for affordable housing ordinance passes as it is written. would this site be able to have increased density?

If the what's currently proposed under zoning for affordable housing is approved. the minimum lot size in this zone would go down to 7,500 square feet right?

because they were also presented with the zoning for affordable housing changes.

I realize it says Occupancy. It's the zoning for affordable housing ordinance.

get feedback on this project and the zoning for affordable housing, so i'll touch on that.

we just recently started to synthesize what potential code changes could look like to support zoning for affordable housing

are being considered in the zoning for affordable housing code changes as they move forward

the zoning for affordable housing proposal that Staff has been working with

I'm just gonna start with just a basic background on how the project started occupancy and zoning for affordable housing.

which is occupancy, reform, and the separate matter of zoning for affordable housing.

So let's move on to affordable house housing, zoning for affordable housing.

our second item is zoning for affordable housing update and discussion

get feedback on the Zoning for affordable housing project

tonight we're going to talk about Zoning for affordable housing

evaluate the land use code with the intent of removing zoning barriers to more affordable units

Zoning for affordable housing so considering an ordinance to increase affordable housing by revising density

I'm clear this is zoning for affordable housing, not deed restricted, affordable housing

I think we'll move on to Item c. Zoning for affordable housing. Discussion, continued

So yeah, you're talking about the zoning for affordable housing.

I'm a big fan of rmx2 has that affordable housing density bonus that gets you to that kind of holiday level

our proposed approach really does realize the intention of the density bonus in rmx too and provides

this zoning can allow for densities of up to 20 units per acre if certain density bonus and site review criteria are met

this is what the problem is with Boulder with density bonuses

zoning for affordable housing things like Boulder Junction phase 2 which will have a bunch of affordable housing

So that's kind of what we're doing is we're looking at those ideas for density bonuses, or maybe changes to the city's density requirements

So I'm also working on zoning for affordable housing.

Update the inclusionary housing policy update or ordinance update zoning for affordable housing

there are a variety of incentives beyond just zoning and and density bonuses that could could have an impact

I'm curious what's going on with use tables, module 3 versus the zoning for affordable housing

Getting into the the meat of the zoning for affordable housing code change

Regarding this density bonuses that you can request and it requires the applicant to go through site review

the density is very much a function of what the site can support for affordable housing

require a provision of a certain percentage of affordable housing

the Very uh thin sliced uh elements for Zoning for affordable housing

with the clear recognition that the occupancy and Zoning for affordable housing Scopes will be discussed as part of those work sessions

what was outlined in the memo sort of around zoning and affordable housing including looking at um open space requirements

yes we we do have teed up a discussion about uh Zoning for affordable housing as one of the projects

moving through to support Zoning for affordable housing because it's important that if you want

support for your guys's City priority of amending the land use codes in support of Zoning for affordable housing

since we do want to try to get as many affordable housing units out into the community

build in some non-financial incentives like density bonuses shorter permitting process for enhanced affordability

one of the tools um is to really look again at the community benefits program and to come up with a formula for a density bonus

You can get a really significant density bonus if you're doing middle income housing where it doesn't have the same restrictions

they created an overlay zone for a part of new Rochelle new Rochelle and said

OF THE DENSITY BONUS FOR YEAR ON NON RESIDENTIAL INCLUDING NON RESIDENTIAL HOUSING

SO THE DENSITY BONUS WOULD BE EVEN MORE NECESSARY IN THOSE ZONES

all of the boards and bodies that have to approve this thing have said you can get a density bonus of 50% if you make them all affordable

IN OTHERS THEY ARE IN NEXT TUESDAY THAT ALLOWS A DENSITY BONUS FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING

WHEN DENSITY BONUS IS BASED ON RESIDENTIAL SPACE NOT NON RESIDENTIAL SPACE

THE FACT THAT THE CONGREGATE CARE DENSITY BONUS ALOUD HUNDRED AND FORTY SEVEN UNITS TO START WITH

two of the scenarios looked at housing and so both of those with the height and the density bonus

one of the reasons that we haven't been getting housing was the downtown density bonus for office space
