...Title

Maximizing Affordable Homes within Projects Receiving City Financing. - TO BE HEARD CONCURRENTLY WITH ITEM 8.2

...Recommendations

As recommended by the Rules and Open Government Committee on November 2, 2022:

(a) Prioritize Measure E and other City discretionary affordable housing funding for those affordable housing projects that maximize unit count within the constraints of the municipal code, zoning, land use plan, and the City’s published design guidelines; and

(b) Direct the Housing Department to communicate clearly to all affordable housing builders seeking City financing that reductions of project unit count for reasons unsupported by City policy will result in their project being deprioritized for City funding.
