Affordable Housing Density Bonus
Addresses the requirements of Chapter 4.3 §65915 of California Code requiring local governments to provide incentives that will encourage developers to build affordable housing in the form of both: 1) a density bonus, and 2) exceptions from normally applicable zoning and other development standards. State law requires each city and county to adopt an ordinance that specifies how compliance with this section will be implemented. This section also achieves the requirement of General Plan Housing Element Implementation Measure HO-7, which was adopted July 1, 2008 to ensure these State standards are met. This section applies to all areas of the County where residential uses are permitted.
