Administrative Brower presented the recommendations that were discussed at the Board’s October 20 Workshop, which were:
Recommendation 1:
Proactively rezone priority areas for townhome and middle housing options specifically to encourage homeownership.
Set limits that enable growth toward target development goals
Prioritize rezonings near key activity centers and corridors
Direct growth where infrastructure can adequately serve it.
Recommendation 2:
Reduce or waive fees based on how much the development is dedicated to affordable housing.
Define affordable housing as units rented or sold at below-market rate and restricted to low-and moderate-income households.
Recommendation 3:
Investigate a tiered system for fees, reduce or waive fees for smaller square footage to incentivize new / future development.
Investigate impact on the budget from reduced or waived fees - what would the offset from new development be? How much new development would offset not having impact fees?
