II. CURRENT BUSINESS
SS1. Clarification of Items on the Consent Calendar - None
SS2. Inclusionary Housing Ordinance
Community Development Director Jurjis, Principal Planner Murillo, and Kathy Head, President
of Keyser Marston Associates, reported on the State mandates for the construction and
development of affordable housing, required Inclusionary Housing Ordinance for affordable
housing minimums, and voluntary density bonus provision; and utilized a presentation to
discuss inclusionary housing, provide a background, the Regional Housing Needs Allocation
(RHNA) fulfillment tool, density bonus, the City's previous Inclusionary Housing ordinance,
financial evaluation parameters(www.newportbeachca.gov/inclusionary), pro forma evaluation
tests, supportable requirements for rental and ownership projects, examples within Southern
California, and a summary for a possible ordinance for the City.
Mayor Pro Tem O'Neill questioned whether a study exists that demonstrates whether
Inclusionary Housing Ordinances lead to more housing production and noted research by
Manhattan Institute fellow Connor Harris that finds the opposite occurs within California
communities, provided an example of in -lieu fees, expressed concern for the study dates and
increased construction from State regulations, and noted the opportunity to study ordinances
from other cities.
In response to Mayor Pro Tem O'Neill's question, Principal Planner Murillo and Ms. Head
clarified the calculation process for determining the per market rate. Mayor Pro Tem O'Neill
expressed concern regarding project plans and preferred to continue gathering information from
other cities. Through the example of in -lieu fees at Newport Center, Principal Planner Murillo
clarified the recommendation to take the lowest fee and apply it across the board.
In response to Council Member Avery's question, Ms. Head discussed an informal study she
conducted of four California cities with inclusionary housing that showed no discernable
pattern, and the key to a successful Inclusionary Housing Ordinance is to moderate and balance
the requirement. Council Member Avery noted the importance of staying in touch with the
development industry, getting feedback about what is doable, an awareness of the risk involved
in development, and land value challenges.
In response to Council Member Weigand's question, Principal Planner Murillo clarified that the
use of an Inclusionary Housing Ordinance is at the discretion of Council, 13 Orange County
cities have completed their RHNA, and highlighted the State's focus. Council Member Weigand
expressed the opinion that more expert feedback should be collected and a second Council study
session should take place.
Council Member Grant concurred with Council Member Weigand's comments, expressed
disappointment for the lack of funding to meet the RHNA numbers and, in response to her
question, Principal Planner Murillo noted that standards and guidelines for the use of
Affordable Housing Funds will be included in the draft Inclusionary Housing Ordinance and
noted how in -lieu fees have been used in the past.

City Council Meeting
January 24, 2023
Council Member Kleiman noted the importance of recognizing that the state -mandated by -right
density bonus laws, which incentivize developers to propose projects that include affordable
housing, are already in effect.
In response to Council Member Weigand's questions, Ms. Head noted the legislature allowed
inclusion of rentals beginning in 2017 and that the Inclusionary Housing Ordinance can include
properties for rent and for sale.
Mayor Blom discussed the City's geographic challenges, believed the City can use its
inventiveness to create profitable venue opportunities, expressed interest in discussing new
ideas, noted success with density bonuses in the airport area, and would like to wait and see.
Jim Mosher expressed the opinion that a clearer agenda would have given the new Council
Members a chance to review this topic in advance, expressed confusion regarding the
terminology of the in -lieu threshold and staffs proposal, expressed concern relative to the
by -right approach for 50 units or more, and inquired whether an estimate exists of the total
number of units the City is expected to build over the next eight years to meet the RHNA
requirements and how the proposed ordinance will affect the number.
Adam Wood, Building Industry Association, reminded Council that other development impact
fees will increase the total cost of and burden on development, impacts on interest rates, and
noted the industry is facing hardship. He discussed the Santa Ana case study and expressed the
opinion that more studies would be beneficial.
Larry Tucker expressed the opinion that Council should gather information from the
development community and stated that density bonus has been effective for generating units
throughout the City.
Nancy Scarbrough discussed development scenarios using 5% and 15% inclusionary housing,
noted the complexity of this topic, and supported taking more time to work it through.
Mayor Blom gained consensus from Council to ruminate on the item and return to staff with
guidance.
III. PUBLIC COMMENTS
