Agenda Item No. 2 - Zoning Code Re -write Action: Staff gave a status report on bluff and canyon development regulations and gave a time frame of a two weeks as to when the section will be presented to the Committee. The Committee reviewed comments prepared by Committee members Eaton and Hawkins regarding residential development standards of the draft code. The Committee and Advisory Members discussed and directed staff to: • revise Section 20.30.050 subsection C.3. pg. 3-16 to adjust maximum width to 35 percent and add an exception for shed dormers that relaxes the roof pitch requirement ■ revise Section 20.30.090 subsection A.b. pg. 3-23 to add a requirement that adequate turning radius for a gurney be provided to be approved by the Fire Department instead of providing the 4- foot side setback area to the primary entrance • delete Section 20.52.030 subsection C. pg. 3-116 ■ flag pg. 3-118 under residential uses and go back to it at a later meeting to discuss revising minimum parking requirement for larger homes and creating a threshold of number of rooms or square footage that would require an additional enclosed parking space ■ revise Section 20.52.040 Table 3-11 pg. 3-118 under senior housing create an additional subcategory: senior housing market rate units require 1.2 parking spaces per unit and senior affordable housing require 1 space per unit ■ send back entire Section 20.30.080 starting on pg. 3-20 for revision because of concerns that it is too expansive and goes beyond the General Plan policy and becomes too regulatory, should be a more compact way to provide public view protection, possibly add caveat : "provided it is not detrimental to substantial property rights" ■ revise Section 20.52.070 subsection C2. and C3.c. pg. 3-128 — will keep the same intent and create internal consistency • create a section for In -lieu parking fees ■ revise Section 20.30.050 subsection AA.b. pg. 3-14 to have threshold of "Lots 40 feet and less in width" • advisory members and staff will discuss the open space and third floor limitation requirements and will return to the Committee with a resolution ■ delete Section 20.30.020 subsection A.6. pg. 3-6 ■ revise Section 20.30.040 subsection C. add language "or other conditions" after excavation/fill in e.g. list ■ revise Section 20.30.050 subsection A.3.a. pg. 3-13 add description or definition of 8.67 (what is it?) ■ revise Section 20.30.050 subsection C.9. pg. 3-17 — change provision to prohibit projection of solar equipment over 29 feet and 3 feet projection over flat roof and not above 29 feet of sloped roof ■ flag for future discussion and revision Section 20.30.070 subsection D.1. and D.2. pg. 3-19 ■ flag for future discussion for the RM district in Corona Del Mar, revise calculation of maximum square footage to not count submerged lands ■ flag for future discussion and possible revision of Section 20.52.090 subsection B.1.a. pg. 3-129 — look at on -street parking as an indicator that parking demand will be less than requirement • advisory members and staff will discuss and present revision of Section 20.30.050 subsection C.2. to the Committee — need to update measurement standards also look at a provision for roof deck fireplace chimneys The public provided comments to the Committee and staff regarding: • parking in the sideyards, resident at 3600 Seashore concerned with neighbor parking in sideyard — staff and Committee do not see a revision to the draft code as the answer for the resident • general comments on parking changes such as landscaping, size of stalls, a concern with applicability to existing facilities when will changes have to be made? what is trigger point? — staff pointed to nonconforming chapter which will be reviewed at future Committee meeting ■ concern that City Standard drawings from Public Works Design Manual had been lifted and put in code — staff explained that goal is to put more information in one place to make it easier to find and work with and that the Public Works Director has reviewed parking standards of draft code ■ the idea of the additional parking standards is to provide for coastal access and meet coastal zone requirements however in some cases the Coastal Commission has different parking standards than draft code and it seems that parking standards could become less stringent and more flexible when you are out of coastal zone — staff will look at this and is still working with the Coastal Commission • Coastal Commission review of General Plan status — Coastal Commission is still reviewing CLUP Amendments and Zoning Code will follow Vote: Consensus 3. Agenda Item No. 3 — Items for future agenda Action: None Vote: None 4. Agenda Item No. 4 — Public Comments on non -agenda items None Meeting Adjourned 6:15 p.m. Attachment No. 2 Revised Inclusionary Housing Memo and Revised Ordinance, Draft Code Review No. 5 — Non -Residential Development Standards, Draft Code Review No. 6 — Transfer of Development Rights CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH PLANNING DEPARTMENT DATE: October 22, 2008 TO: General Plan/LCP Implementation Committee FROM: Jaime Murillo, Associate Planner SUBJECT: Draft Inclusionary Housing Chapter— Chapter 20.34 At the September 24, 2008, General Plan/LCP Implementation Committee meeting, the Committee discussed the three housing related chapters of the draft Zoning Code: Inclusionary Housing, Density Bonus and Conversion or Demolition of Affordable Housing in the Coastal Zone. In regards to the Inclusionary Housing chapter, the Committee directed staff to re -assess the affordability requirement percentages and make them more consistent with Housing Policy 2.2.1. Section 20.34.030.A (Affordability Requirement) of the draft Code previously read as follows: All new residential development projects shall include the construction of the following percentage of the total number of dwelling units within the residential development project as restricted affordable units for rentAease by very low- or low-income households: a. 9 percent very low-income households; or b. 15 percent low-income households. Housing Policy 2.2.1 of the General Plan states that it's the City's goal over the planning period for an average of 15 percent of all new housing units to be affordable to very low-, low- and moderate -income households. The Committee was particularly concerned that the Inclusionary Housing chapter was more restrictive than, and potentially inconsistent with, Housing Policy 2.2.1 as it did not include provisions for the construction of moderate -income housing. Based on the Committee's direction, staff has revised Section 20.34.030.A to read as follows: All new residential development projects shall include the construction of the following percentage of the total number of dwelling units within the residential development project as affordable units restricted for occupancy by very low-, low- or moderate -income households: a. 8.5 percent very low-income households; or b. 15 percent low-income households; or C. 21.5 percent moderate -income households. Basis for Percentages To fully implement Housing Policy 2.2.1, the City's inclusionary housing requirements must be crafted in such a way that creates an average of 15 percent of all new housing units as affordable. The term average suggests that some projects will provide less than 15 percent and other projects must provide more. Staff believes a developer should have the option of providing affordable units for very low-, low-, or moderate -income households; however, it is imperative that an economic equivalency be established among these income levels, so that developers will not simply provide 15 percent of the units for moderate -income households (an income category that requires the least subsidy) and do not produce any housing affordable to low- and very -low income households. Based on the analysis contained within the Draft Technical Memorandum dated October 7, 2008, prepared by Economic and Planning Systems (EPS), for the calculation of the City's affordable housing in -lieu fee, the revised percentages would essentially result in an equivalent financial impact on a residential development project. In other words, no matter which income level a developer chose to provide affordable units for, it would require the same construction subsidy to create those units and thereby eliminate any benefit of choosing one income category over another. Income Level Average Subsidy per Unit Percentage of Units 1n -Lieu fee per Market -Rate Unit Very Low (rental) $234,000 8.5% $19,890 Low rental $133,000 15% $19,950 Moderate (For- sale $92,000 21.5% $19,970 -Average $133,000 15% $19,900 Moderate -Income Condominiums It must be noted that the economic equivalencies discussed above were based on the assumption that very low- and low-income units would be developed as rental units and the moderate -income units would be developed as owner - occupied units in the form of condominiums. The economic equivalency was evaluated utilizing the subsidies necessary to develop moderate -income rental units; however, many of the market -rate apartments in the City are currently affordable to moderate -income households. Also, based on the calculations contained within EPS's memorandum, there is no subsidy required to construct moderate -income rental units, whereas moderate - income for -sale units require a subsidy of approximately $92,000 per unit. As a result, moderate income rentals do not provide housing that is not already being provided by market forces and cannot also yield an equivalent benefit to the City (even a project that provided 100 percent moderate income rentals would not result in an implicit subsidy comparable to the subsidy attributable to 15 percent low income rental units). Therefore, the decision was made to calculate the moderate -income units as owner -occupied condominiums. To be consistent with the 21.5 percent economic equivalency calculation, a new section (Sec. 20.34.030.6) was added to the draft Inclusionary Housing chapter requiring the following: Tenure of Affordable Units. For moderate -income affordable units provided in compliance with this Chapter, the applicant shall sell the units at an affordable housing price. For all very low-income and low-income affordable units provided in compliance with this Chapter, the applicant shall rent the units at an affordable rent. RHNA Fulfillment Although staff believes a developer should have the option of providing affordable units for either very low-, low-, or moderate -income households, it is possible that the City's Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) construction need for a particular income category may eventually be fully satisfied. To assist in meeting the City's RHNA, the City should reserve the right to determine which income category must be provided if the RHNA construction needs have been met for one or both of the other income categories. Therefore, the following section (20.34.030.A.3) has been added granting the City the right to restrict the construction of units for a particular income category: The City reserves the right to restrict an applicant's ability to select the income category for which they intend to satisfy the affordability requirement when the City's Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) construction need has been met for one or more income categories. Calculation of Units - Rounding The Committee directed staff to revise the method of rounding when calculating the precise number of units required to be provided. Per the direction of the Committee, staff has revised the calculation procedures in the draft Code as follows: 20.30.010 — Calculation of Units A. Time of determination. The number of affordable units required for a residential development project shall be determined prior to tentative or parcel map approval, or for developments not processing a tentative or parcel map, prior to issuance of a Building Permit. B. Providing units. To determine the number of units required when new affordable units are to be provided, any decimal fraction less than 0.50 shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number, and any decimal fraction greater than or equal to 0.50 shall be rounded up to the next whole number. C. In -lieu fee payment. When a fee is being paid in lieu of providing affordable units, the in -lieu fee shall be paid for each market -rate unit within the residential development project. D. Minimum. In no case shall the affordability requirement be zero. A complete copy of the revised Inclusionary Housing chapter is attached.
