<br />Ordinance No. NS-XXX <br />Page 7 of 16 <br /> <br />Sec. 41-1904. Options to satisfy inclusionary requirements. <br />(a) On-site units. The primary means of complying with the inclusionary requirements <br />of this article shall be the provision of on-site inclusionary units in accordance with section <br />41-1902 above. A developer may only satisfy the requirements of this article by means of <br />an alternative to on-site inclusionary units in accordance with the requirements and <br />procedures of this section. <br /> <br />(b) Off-site units. <br /> <br />(1) New units. The developer may satisfy the inclusionary unit requirements for <br />the project, in whole or in part by constructing the required new inclusionary housing at a <br />different location within the city borders at the ratio of one square foot of habitable <br />inclusionary unit space for each required habitable square foot. While the total habitable <br />square footage area of the required new inclusionary units must be the same as the sum- <br />total of the number of habitable square feet for the project as directed by this ordinance, <br />the number of units and bedrooms associated with the off-site units may be approved by <br />the review authority of the city, consistent with the type of affordable housing needed at <br />the time of project review. <br /> <br />(2) Rehabilitated units outside a designated target area. The developer may <br />satisfy the inclusionary unit requirements for the project, in whole or in part by <br />substantially rehabilitating existing housing units elsewhere within the borders of the city <br />at a rate of one and one-half (1½) habitable square feet per each required habitable <br />square foot of inclusionary units. <br /> <br />(3) Rehabilitated units within a designated target area. Upon application, the <br />developer may satisfy the inclusionary unit requirements for the project, in whole or in <br />part by substantially rehabilitating existing housing units elsewhere within the borders of <br />the city at a rate of one habitable square foot per each required habitable square foot of <br />affordable inclusionary units. <br /> <br />(c) In-lieu fee. <br /> <br /> (1) Five (5) or more units. For a residential project comprised of five (5) or more <br />residential lots or residential units, the developer may elect to satisfy the inclusionary unit <br />requirements for the project, in whole or in part, by payment of a fee in-lieu of constructing <br />some or all of the required units. The total amount of the fee allowed by this section shall <br />be calculated using the In-Lieu Fee Schedule in section 41-1904(c)(1)(i) multiplied by the <br />sum total of the number of habitable square feet within the entire project, as measured <br />from the exterior walls of the residential units. This calculation does not include exterior <br />hallways, common areas, landscape, open space or exterior stairways. <br /> <br /> (i) In-Lieu Fee Schedule <br />
