("Project"). This <br />letter addresses the Project's failure to comply with the Housing Opportunity Ordinance <br />("HOO"), Santa Ana Municipal Code sections 41-1900, et seq. <br />The HOO applies to the Project because the Project exceeds densities allowed by <br />current General Plan and zoning. As such the Project must provide inclusionary housing <br />for low-income residents. However, the Project includes only full market -rate housing and <br />provides no affordable housing and no in lieu payments for affordable housing. As such <br />the Project must be rejected for failure to comply with the HOO. <br />The HOO applies to "any new Residential Project located within the city, including <br />new construction, and condominium conversions which exceed the General Plan <br />prescribed densities." (Sec. 41-1902(a)). Section 41-1902(b) states: <br />75C-283 <br />
