Affordable Housing Opportunity and Creation Ordinance The proposed development is subject to the requirements of the City's Affordable Housing Opportunity and Creation Ordinance (AHOCO), which requires rental unit developments to provide a minimum number of affordable units, depending on the proposed affordability level (i.e., low income, very low income, extremely low income, or a combination). In this case, the developer is proposing to provide moderate -income for -sale units. Pursuant to the AHOCO, the applicant is required to provide five percent (5%) moderate -income onsite affordable units. The project exceeds the five percent (5%) affordable housing requirement for the ownership category of the City's Affordable Housing Opportunity and Creation Ordinance (AHOCO) by providing four (4) onsite units to be affordable to moderate -income (80- 120%) households and significantly enhancing the opportunity for income eligible Santa Ana households to own a home in the City at a lower cost. The units will be dispersed throughout the community. The affordable units will be two (2) three -bedroom, three -bath units and two (2) four -bedroom, four -bath units. The proposed affordable units will be 1,352 and 1,610 square feet in size and will contain full kitchens, bedrooms, bathrooms, and open/common (living) areas. The developer's Inclusionary Housing Plan has been reviewed and approved by the City's Housing Division.
