Document Description
The applicant requests a Vesting Tentative Tract Map, Development Review, and Affordable Housing Density Bonus. The project includes the demolition of an existing 37,092 square foot commercial building and construction of 89 residential condominium units on an approximately 3.62-acre site. In compliance with the California Housing Accountability Act (HAA) and Density Bonus Law, the applicant is requesting a base density of 74 residential units, of which nine units would be deed-restricted for low-income households. This allocation of affordability qualifies the applicant to request a 20% density bonus resulting in an additional yield of 15 units, bringing the project total to 80 market-rate units and nine affordable units.
