REDUCING THE SECOND UNIT FEE IN THE TRI-VALLEY TRANSPORTATION DEVELOPMENT
FEE PROGRAM TO $0
WHEREAS, consistent with the TVTD Fee program, the City of Dublin currently collects a Tri-
Valley Transportation Development Fee for Second Units that is equal to the rate charged for Multi-
Family Units; and
WHEREAS the City of Dublin desires to support more affordable housing to help address the
housing crisis; and
WHEREAS, the California Department of Housing and Community Development has advised
that a way for local jurisdictions to encourage the development of accessory dwelling units (ADU) or
secondary dwelling units (SDU) is to reduce or eliminate fees; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Joint Exercise of Powers Authority the Tri-Valley
Transportation Council (TVTC) can recommend fee amounts; and
WHEREAS, on July 15, 2019 the TVTC adopted a resolution recommending resetting
ADU/SDU fee to $0 in the Tri-Valley Transportation Development fee program; and
WHEREAS, TVTC recommends member agencies to implement this fee by September 30,
2019; and
WHEREAS, the City Council agrees with the TVTC's recommendation, which aligns with the
recommendations in the Housing and Policy Framework adopted by Danville, Dublin, Livermore,
Pleasanton, and San Ramon aimed at removing barriers to the development of second units.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of Dublin, reduces
the Second Unit Fee in the TVTD fee program to $0.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the fee reduction described in the foregoing paragraph
shall be implemented only after the City Clerk has been provided evidence that each of the members
of the TVTC (County of Alameda, County of Contra Costa, Town of Danville, City of Livermore, City of
Pleasanton, and City of San Ramon) have reduced the TVTD Fee in their jurisdictions to $0.
