However, the most recent housing inventory report indicates that in 2017, 421 inclusionary units were added which accounts for 28.8% of all affordable units provided through all city programs.9 City of Sacramento Mixed Income Housing Ordinance Backeround: In 2015, the Sacramento City Council modified its Mixed Income housing Ordinance to a fee -based policy in compliance with the Palmer decision. Prior to 2015, Sacramento had a project -percentage requirement of 5% of total dwelling units to be affordable to low-income households earning up to 80% of AMI and 10% for very low-income households with income up to 50% of AMC These units were required to be built on the site of the development project, to the extent possible. The City cites one of the reasons for moving away from the project-porcentage approach was the difficulty of marketing for -sale inclusionary units due to a limited range of qualified buyers.10 Base Reuirement: The Ordinance requires that an affordable housing impact fee be assessed for all now market rate housing units, with the intent of providing housing for a variety of incomes and family types. Residential developments larger than 100 acres are additionally required to develop a Council -approved mixed -income housing strategy. The strategy demonstrates how the projeotprovides housing forvariety of incomes and family types. It may also provide for fee credits for land dedication, construction of affordable units, or another mechanism that leads to affordable housing. 9 2017 San Francisco Housing Inventory, San Francisco Council Report, Report ID: 2015-00668, 65B-19
