Public Notice of the July 1, 1991 hearing was published in the local newspaper, mailed to adjacent property owners, and posted in public buildings. Purpose of the Ordinance This item was continued from the July 1, 1991 Planning Commission hearing to allow revisions to the Inclusionary Housing Ordinance. Section 6.3, Strategy I.B., of the Housing Element states that the City will adopt an Inclusionary Housing Ordinance. The purpose of the attached Ordinance is to enhance the public welfare and assure that further housing development contributes to the attainment of the City's housing goals by increasing the production of residential units affordable by households of lower and moderate income, and providing funds for the development of lower and moderate income ownership and rental housing. A goal of the Housing Element is to achieve a balanced community with housing available for households of a range of income levels. Increasingly, persons with lower and moderate incomes who work and/or live within the City are unable to locate housing at prices they can afford, and are increasingly excluded from living in the City. Federal and State housing subsidy programs are not ITEM NO. g• I 1 COPIES TO: Agenda File Planning FilepAGF Project Planner OF 31 sufficient by themselves to satisfy the housing needs of lower and moderate income households. The high cost of newly constructed housing does not, to any appreciable extent, provide housing affordable by lower and moderate income households. New development which does not include lower or moderate cost housing will aggravate the current housing shortage by reducing the supply of developable land. General Requirements The ordinance requires that ten (10) percent of the total number of units of all new residential developments constructed within the City as it now exists (and as may be altered by annexation), containing twenty (20) or more units, shall be affordable by households of lower and moderate income. Inclusionary rental units must be affordable to lower income households earning up to 70% of the County median income. Not less than one half of the inclusionary ownership units must be affordable to lower income households which earn up to 80% of the County median income and the balance of the inclusionary ownership units must be affordable to moderate income households earning up to 120% of the county median income. A lower percentage (70%) was used for the inclusionary rental units in order to insure that the rents of the inclusionary units are below the current market rate levels in Dublin. Inclusionary units would include all unit types represented in the project and the unit types would be provided in the same proportion as the project as a whole. The exterior design of the inclusionary units would be identical to the market rate units. However, reductions in the interior amenities for the inclusionary units would be permitted upon approval by the City in order to retain project affordability. Criteria are established regarding the pricing of the units and screening the applicants for the inclusionary units. Criteria are also established for allowing off -site Inclusionary units. The inclusionary requirements would run with the land for a 30 year period. The 30 year period was used because it is consistent with time period required by the State for density bonus units (Government Code Section 65915). The inclusionary requirements also apply to lot sale subdivisions; however, this ordinance requires payment of in -lieu participation fees rather than the provision of lots. Requirements to Purchase or Rent an Inclusionary Unit Dublin residents will have first preference for inclusionary units and lots; second preference will be given to Dublin employees; third preference will be given to those who need to move to Dublin to be near Dublin residents or services; and fourth preference will be given to those who live outside Dublin. The following individuals would be ineligible to purchase or rent an inclusionary unit as their residence: -2- hsng-e PAGE OF S (a) All employees and officials of the City who have, by the authority of their position, policy making authority or influence affecting City housing programs. (b) The project Applicant or Project Owner. Resale Controls In order to maintain the availability of inclusionary ownership units, the City would impose resale conditions. The price received by the seller of an inclusionary unit would be limited to the purchase price plus an increase based on the San Francisco/Oakland/San Jose Consumer Price Index, (as published monthly by the U.S. Department of Labor) or an amount consistent with the increase in the Alameda County median income, for a family of four, since the date of purchase or the fair market value, whichever is less (refer to Attachment 1 of the Ordinance for an example of a resale price calculation). Administration and Enforcement Provisions The City Manager would develop guidelines for the administration of the Ordinance. The Ordinance would allow the City to contract with the Dublin Housing Authority, the Alameda County Housing Authority, or other similar entity to administer the rental, sales and in -lieu participation fee requirements. The owner of each project with inclusionary rental units would be responsible for obtaining and verifying information with respect to the qualifications of prospective and current tenants. The Ordinance also contains provisions for enforcement. The primary means of enforcement of resale restrictions would be a deed restriction and if applicable, a declaration of Covenants, Conditions & Restrictions which will require prior City approval for resale of an inclusionary unit. The ordinance would also allow the City to bring an action to recover excess rents charged a tenant. In addition, any person found guilty of violating the provisions of the Ordinance would be guilty of a misdemeanor or an infraction.

In -lieu participation fees may be paid instead of providing single family detached inclusionary units more than 1,600 square feet in size, including a two car garage (with 1,200 square -3- hsng-e PAGE 5 OF feet of living area), and other inclusionary units with 900 square feet or more of living area, exclusive of garages, upon approval of the City Manager. The in -lieu participation fees for single family detached units will be determined by the City Council at least every two years. The in -lieu participation fee for all other inclusionary units including lots will be one-half of the in -lieu participation fee for single family detached inclusionary units. The Ordinance provides in -lieu fees as an alternative for developments that cannot satisfy the inclusionary requirement due to factors such as location, availability of services, extreme topography, development density, and environmental constraints. In - lieu participation fees for single family detached dwelling units over 1,600 square feet in size, including a two car garage, would be calculated by subtracting the amount a household could pay from the cost of the unit. Any in -lieu participation fees collected under the program would go into an exclusive fund to be spent directly on creating new affordable housing opportunities in Dublin. Consistent with the Housing Element, such in -lieu fees would have to be spent or committed by the City within five seven years of receipt of the funds. The five seven-year period is recommended because it is a reasonable time period to accumulate funds, purchase land, and plan for and construct housing. A shorter time span would make the accomplishment of these goals difficult due to their long lead times and potential delays. In lieu fees, while appearing to be less than sufficient to provide housing units are leveraged to finance alternative dwelling units. The City of Petaluma leverages its in -lieu fees at a ratio of 12:1. Typically, dwelling units are not built by the City collecting the in -lieu fees, but by non-profit low cost housing providers such as the Bridge Housing Corporation. The cost of monitoring resales by the City is included in the in -lieu participation fee. The amount of the in -lieu participation fees charged for single family detached inclusionary units is $2,000. The amount of the in - lieu participation fees charged for all other types of inclusionary units including lots is $1,000. The method for determining the in - lieu participation fee is outlined in the attached ordinance and its attachments. The methodology clearly establishes a nexus between the type of development and the application of the in -lieu participation fee. The theoretical maximum amount of the in -lieu participation fees charged per dwelling unit in the three density ranges of the General Plan and for rental units (refer to Attachment 2 of the ordinance for an explanation of how the fees were calculated) would be as follows: Type of Project In -Lieu Fee/Unit In Project Single Family (Ownership) $8,446.00 Medium Density (Ownership) 4,862.00 Medium High Density (Ownership) 3,083.00 Rental 2,808.00 The City elects to charge $2,000 for single family detached inclusionary units and $1,000 for all other types of inclusionary -4- hsng-e PAGE OF units and lots in order to provide both sufficient incentive to develop and sufficient funds with which to provide housing. Inclusionary Housing Requirements In Other Communities The following Bay Area cities have inclusionary housing requirements: Berkeley Corte Madera Fairfax Larkspur Livermore Los Gatos Menlo Park Mill Valley Monterey Morgan Hill Novato Palo Alto Petaluma Pleasanton San Leandro San Rafael Santa Cruz Sebastopol Sunnyvale Tiburon Yountville The inclusionary requirements can be categorized into three types: 1. home ownership programs for lower and moderate income households; 2. rental programs designed to provide more lower and moderate income opportunities; and 3. growth management plans which incorporate the provision of lower and moderate income housing as one criterion in prioritizing residential projects. The only cities in the Tri-Valley area that have inclusionary requirements are Livermore and Pleasanton. The City of Livermore has a 10% inclusionary requirement which allows developers the option of paying an in -lieu fee. Livermore charges an $1,833 in -lieu Low Income Housing Fee for each unit in a residential project. The fee was determined by the following formula: Average Land Value in Livermore x % of Low Income Housing Desired Average Residential Density of Livermore or 55,000 x .10 = 1,833 3 In addition to the inclusionary housing requirements designed above, the City of Livermore's General Plan includes a growth management program. The program encourages affordable housing because lower cost residential units receive a certain percentage of the available allocations each year. The City of Pleasanton has a growth management program as well as affordable housing requirements. The growth management program sets aside a certain number of residential allocations each year for lower income housing projects. -5- hsng-e PAGE The City of Pleasanton's affordable housing requirements apply to all residential, commercial and industrial developments. The Ordinance requires 15% of all residential units to be low income units. Non- residential projects are required to construct residential units based upon the size and type of use proposed (retail office, research and development, hotel/motel and light industrial). Pleasanton also-allows-for-the-payment-of-fees-in-lieu-of-eonstrueting units.- charges a lower income housing fee to secure funds to build low income housing. Pleasanton currently is charging a $597 fee for each new multi -family unit, a $1,790 fee for single family units and $0.40/sq. ft. of commercial and industrial floor area. The fees are based on a maximum of $17,300,000 that could be levied in in -lieu fees for low income housing. The funds would be used to construct 1,350 low income housing units over 20 years to meet the Housing Element goal of 15% of new residential construction for low income families. 9,000 dwelling units (2,250 multi -family and 6,750 single family) and 11,000,000 square feet of commercial space allowed by the General Plan remain unbuilt. The following amounts would be yielded by Pleasanton's in -lieu fees: Multi -family Units $ 597 x 2,250 units = $ 1,343,250 Single Family Units $1,790 x 6,750 units = $12,082,500 Commercial Square Footage$ .40 x 11,000,000 = $ 4,400,000 TOTAL $17,825,750 RECOMMENDATIONS: FORMAT: 1) Open public hearing and hear Staff presentation. 2) Take testimony from the public. 3) Question Staff and the public. 4) Close public hearing. 5) Adopt resolution recommending that the City Council approve a resolution adopting the draft inclusionary ordinance and adopt a resolution recommending that the City Council approve in -lieu participation fees, or give Staff direction and continue the matter.

Chapter 8.08 is hereby added to Title 8 of the Dublin Municipal Code to read as follows: "CITY OF DUBLIN INCLUSIONARY HOUSING ORDINANCE CHAPTER 8.08 OF TITLE 8 CITY OF DUBLIN MUNICIPAL CODE Article 1 General Provisions Section 8.08.010. Title. This Ordinance shall be called the "Inclusionary Housing Ordinance of the City of Dublin". Section 8.08.020. Findings. The City of Dublin finds that the citizens of the City are experiencing a housing shortage for lower and moderate income households. A goal of the City's adopted Housing Element is to achieve a balanced community with housing available for households of a range of income levels. Increasingly, persons with lower and moderate incomes who work and/or live within the City are unable to locate housing at prices they can afford, and are increasingly excluded from living in the City. Federal and State housing subsidy programs are not sufficient by themselves to satisfy the housing needs of lower and moderate income households. The City finds that the high cost of newly constructed housing does not, to any appreciable extent, provide housing affordable by lower and moderate income households, and that continued new development which does not include lower or moderate cost housing will serve to further aggravate the current housing shortage by reducing the supply of developable land. The City further finds that it is a public purpose of the City, and a public policy of the State of California as mandated by the requirements for a housing element of the City's General Plan, to make available an adequate supply of housing for persons of all economic segments of the community. Section 8.08.030. Purpose. The purpose of this Ordinance is to enhance the public welfare and assure that further housing PAGE_!%,_ OE development contributes to the attainment of the above -described housing goals by increasing the production of residential units affordable by households of lower and moderate income, and by providing funds for the development of lower and moderate income ownership and rental housing. A limited and finite amount of land remains for development of housing in the City and extended planning area. In order to assure that the remaining developable land is utilized in a manner consistent with the City's housing policies and needs, the City declares that ten (10) percent of the total number of units of all new residential developments constructed within the City as it now exists and as may be altered by annexation, containing twenty (20) or more units, shall be affordable by households of lower and moderate income. Inclusionary rental units must be affordable to lower income households. Not less than one half of the inclusionary ownership units must be affordable to lower income households and the balance of the inclusionary ownership units must be affordable to moderate income households. The regulations in this Chapter shall apply Citywide, including the extended planning area. Section 8.08.040. Definitions.

In the case of a subdivision of twenty (20) or more lots, in -lieu participation fees shall be paid for ten (10) percent of the total number of lots, rather than the provision of lots. Inelnsienary-ownership-units-shall-eontain-a minimum-flaer-area-af-i7600-square-€eet-finelnding-a-twa-ear garage)- For the purpose of determining the number of inclusionary units or lots required, decimal fractions of a unit shall be used. Inclusionary units and lots shall include all unit types and sizes represented in the project (unless the number of unit types and sizes exceeds the number of inclusionary units required types -and -sizes) and said unit types and sizes and lots shall be provided in the same proportion as in the project as a whole. The obligation to provide inclusionary units or lots may be satisfied in appropriate circumstances by the applicant's payment of in -lieu participation fees, as provided in Sections 8.08.110-140 of this Ordinance. In applying the ten (10) percent requirement above, any decimal fraction less than or equal to 0.50 may be disregarded and any decimal fraction greater than 0.50 shall be construed as requiring one inclusionary unit. The inclusionary requirement shall be imposed only once on a given project, regardless of changes in the character or ownership of the project. In distributing the total number of inclusionary units required into the various unit types, fractions shall be rounded upward except when rounding the number results in more than 10% of the units in the project. In those cases, fractions shall be eliminated for the unit types with the fewest number of bedrooms in the project and the unit types with the smallest floor areas. When there is an uneven (odd) number of inclusionary units required, a greater number of units shall be assigned to lower income households. Dwelling units shall be assigned to households as follows: One Person Two Persons Three & Four Persons Five Persons Six or more Persons Studio Unit One Bedroom Unit Two Bedroom Unit Three Bedroom Unit Four or more Bedroom Unit (b) Any development permit for projects of twenty (20) or more lots or units, if approved, shall be subject to conditions ensuring compliance with the provisions of this Ordinance. Such conditions shall specify the timing of construction of -5- /hsngorde PAGE F inclusionary units, the number of inclusionary units at appropriate levels, provisions for income certification and screening of potential purchasers and/or renters of inclusionary units, a resale control mechanism, and, if applicable, density bonuses. (c) Inclusionary units shall be subject to the requirements of this chapter for the life of the unit. Prior to the issuance of building permits, the applicant shall record a deed restriction and if applicable, submit a declaration of covenants, conditions and restrictions subjecting the units and/or lots to the requirements of this chapter for approval by the City Attorney which deed restriction and declaration shall include a requirement of prior City approval of resale of inclusionary units. The deed restriction and declaration of covenants, conditions and restrictions shall provide that they may be enforced by the City and shall be recorded prior to the issuance of any building permits for the project. Prior to the sale of such units, the buyer(s) shall sign an acknowledgement that they are aware of the restrictions of this Chapter, the deed restriction, and the declaration of covenants, conditions and restrictions. (d) All inclusionary units shall be rented to lower income households or sold to lower and moderate income households, as certified by the City or its designee. (e) All inclusionary units in a project and phases of a project shall be constructed concurrently with or prior to the construction of non-inclusionary units. Inclusionary units shall be provided as follows: 1. Inclusionary units shall be dispersed throughout the project in areas with similar type units. 2. Inclusionary units shall include all unit types and sizes represented in the project (unless the number of required inclusionary units and sizes is less than the number of unit types and sizes) and said unit types and sizes shall be provided in the same proportion as in the project as a whole. 3. Inclusionary units shall be identical with the design of the non-inclusionary units with the following exception: a. Reduction of interior amenities for inclusionary ownership units will be permitted upon approval by the City as necessary to retain project affordability. (f) The City may contract with the Dublin Housing Authority, the Alameda County Housing Authority, or other similar entity to administer the rental, sales and in -lieu participation fee provisions of this chapter. -6- /hsngorde PAGE b 0F1j. (g) The City Council shall establish the in -lieu participation fees by resolution, which shall be adopted at least every two years. (h) The City Manager may establish administrative guidelines for administration of the provisions of this chapter. (i) All single family detached inclusionary units under 1,600 square feet in size, including a two car garage (with a minimum of 1,200 square feet of living area) and all other inclusionary units with less than 900 square feet of living area, shall be constructed. In -lieu participation fees may be paid instead of providing inclusionary units 17600-square-feet-in-size and -larger; -including -a -two -ear -garage; upon approval of the City Manager. (j) Rental projects shall provide rental inclusionary units. Ownership developments shall provide ownership inclusionary units. In a development with both rental and ownership units, the ratio of rental and ownership inclusionary units shall be the same as the ratio of rental and ownershi1 units in the development. Section 8.08.060. Fee Waivers and Priority Processing. (a) To increase the feasibility of providing inclusionary units, the City Council, by Resolution may waive certain City fees applicable to the inclusionary units or the project for which they are a part. (b) A project which provides inclusionary units shall be entitled to priority processing. Upon certifying that the application is complete and eligible for priority processing, a project shall be immediately assigned to planning staff. The project shall be processed by City staff in advance of all non - priority items. The project will then be reviewed for environmental impacts; and, upon completion of the environmental review process, the project shall be scheduled for the next available meeting of the Planning Commission and/or City Council. When more than one project qualifying for priority processing is applied for at the same time, first priority will be given to the project whose application was determined to be complete earlier. Section 8.08.070. Off -site Inclusionary Units. At the discretion of the City Council, inclusionary units required pursuant to this chapter may be provided at a location within the City other than the project site. Any off -site inclusionary units must receive approval of the City Council and must meet the following criteria: -7- /hsngorde PAGE OF. (a) The off -site inclusionary units must be determined to be consistent with the City's goal of creating, preserving, maintaining, and protecting housing for lower and moderate income households. (b) The off -site inclusionary units must not result in a serious impaction of inclusionary units in any particular neighborhood. (c) An inclusionary unit shall not be transferred to another site more than once.

In -lieu participation fees may be appropriate for particular projects not suitable for inclusionary units due to factors such as, but not limited to, location, availability of services, extreme topography, development density, and environmental constraints. In such cases, the applicant, upon approval of the City Manager, may contribute fees in lieu of providing the inclusionary units. Such fees shall be known as "in -lieu participation fees." All single family detached inclusionary units under 1,600 square feet in size, including a two -car garage (with 1,200 square feet of living area) and all other inclusionary units with less than 900 square feet of living area, shall be constructed. In -lieu participation fees may be paid instead of providing inclusionary units 17600-square-feet-in-size-and larger; -including -garage; upon approval by the City Manager. The in -lieu participation fee for a single family detached inclusionary unit will be calculated on the basis of a 1,600 square foot unit, including a two car garage as shown in Section 8.08.120 of this chapter and Attachment 2 of this ordinance. In -lieu participation fees for dwelling units other than single family detached dwelling units, and for lots shall be one half of the in -lieu participation fee for a single family detached dwelling unit. The City Council shall establish the in -lieu participation fees by resolution, which shall be adopted at least every two years. Section 8.08.120.

Introduction Under the State Housing Law (Government Code Section 65580), local governments have a responsibility to facilitate the development of housing for all economic segments of the community. Pursuant to the State Housing Law, the City has adopted a Housing Element as part of its General Plan. In the Housing Element, the city has identified the provision of low and moderate income housing units or the payment of in -lieu participation fees as methods to implement the affordable housing goals. The purpose of this attachment is to provide a methodology to support the application of in -lieu participation fees. The need for a methodology that provides a link or nexus between the type of development and the application of the fee has been established by recent court decisions (e.g. Nollan v. California Coastal Commission) and State of California Legislation (e.g. Assembly Bill 1600). The subject of what constitutes an acceptable nexus and the application of AB 1600 to in -lieu participation fees has not been completely clarified by court decisions. However, the stronger the link established, the more defensible the requirement. The nexus for residential development fees is generally based on the rationale that the construction of market rate housing utilizes land that could otherwise be used for the development of low-income units. II. Methodology The in -lieu participation fees are based upon two methodologies; one for single family residential ownership units and one for rental units: A. Single Family Residential Ownership Units In -lieu participation fees for projects with ownership units would be calculated based upon the difference between the maximum affordable purchase price of a dwelling unit for a lower or moderate income household and the estimated cost of the inclusionary unit. The following steps were followed in calculating in -lieu participation fees for projects with ownership units: 1. Determine the estimated cost of each inclusionary unit. a. Estimate the construction cost of each inclusionary unit. The construction costs would be calculated on a square foot basis using the City's Fee Schedule for building Regulation Permits (cost/square foot for average construction). In addition, construction costs for any common areas are included (15% of the total construction cost). The estimate of the construction cost of the common areas is based upon a recent survey of projects in the Tri-Valley area. PAGE /hsngorde b. Estimate the unimproved land cost (estimated cost of land with an approved Tentative Map) for each inclusionary unit. c. The total of the construction cost, cost of common area (if any) and the unimproved land costs equals the hard cost of the unit. d. Determine the soft costs. Soft costs include the following (30% of the construction cost plus the unimproved land cost (hard costs)): Profit 12% Marketing 4% Finance 10% Overhead 4% 30% The estimate of soft costs is based upon a recent survey of projects in the City of San Ramon. e. Determine the total cost per inclusionary unit by adding the hard costs and soft costs. 2. Determine the affordable purchase prices for both lower and moderate income households. a. Determine the household size for each inclusionary unit. For the purpose of calculating in -lieu fees, the Ordinance includes a table for converting the number of bedrooms into the number of persons/household that would occupy the unit. b. Based upon the household size, determine the maximum household income for each household type using the median income for Alameda County. Lower income households may not earn more than 80% of the County median income. Moderate income households may not earn more than 120% of the County median income. c. Determine the maximum affordable monthly mortgage payment (including principal and interest) for each unit. Households may not spend more than 30% of their income for the mortgage payment. A 10% down payment is used. d. Determine the maximum affordable loan amount for each inclusionary unit using a standard monthly mortgage payment table for the average fixed interest rate (30 year loan) for Northern California in effect at the time the City Council establishes the fees. 3. Determine the in -lieu fee payment. The maximum affordable loan amount (plus 10% downpayment) is subtracted from the cost of each type of inclusionary unit and the in -lieu fees for each unit are totalled. PAGE aq OF /hsngorde B. Rental Projects In -lieu participation fees for projects with rental units would be calculated based upon the difference between the ability to pay of lower income households and the market rents of comparable units. The following steps would be followed in calculating in -lieu participation fees for projects with rental units: 1. Determine the market rents of units comparable to the required inclusionary units. a. Determine the monthly market rents of units comparable to each inclusionary unit. The apartment units used must be located in the Tri- Valley area. b. Determine the amount that would be spent on rent (market rate) over a 30 year period for each type of comparable market rate unit (multiply the monthly market rents by 360 months). Increases in market rents over time are not considered in this calculation because they are offset by increases in wages over time. 2. Determine the affordable rent based on the ability to pay of lower income households. a. Determine the household size for each inclusionary unit using the table in the Ordinance. b. Based upon the household size, determine the maximum affordable monthly rent for lower income households (70% of 30% of the median income for Alameda County adjusted for family size). c. Determine the amount that would be spent over a 30 year period (multiply the monthly affordable rent by 360 months). 3. Determine the in -lieu fee payment. The 30 year affordable rent for each inclusionary unit is subtracted from the 30 year rent of a comparable unit (market rate). III. Fee Calculations Since the land cost/unit (which is used in the ownership methodology) is based upon the density of the project, separate in -lieu fee calculations are required for each of the following residential land use designations (from the Dublin General Plan): PAGE 3 P OF -L, /hsngorde Residential Lane Density Range Use Designations (Units/Acre) Single Family Medium Density Medium High Density .9 - 6 6.1 - 14 14.1 - 25 The high end of each density range is used in the fee calculations because it would result in more affordable housing. Pursuant to the requirements of the Ordinance, each of the fee calculations for an ownership unit is for a 1,600 square foot, two bedroom unit (including a two car garage). Fee calculations are required for the following types of projects: A. Type of Project - Single Family (Ownership) - Medium Density (Ownership) - Medium High Density (Ownership); and - Rental Single Family Residential (Ownership) 1.
