HOUSING CONSTRAINTS
<br />Cumulative Cost
<br />To determine the total cost of development fees, City staff compiled three
<br />prototypical projects -a single - family home, a 300 -unit condominium project, and
<br />74 -unit apartment project. All development fees were then calculated. As shown
<br />in Table B -14, total development fees for the residential projects ranged from
<br />$17,033 to $26,875 per unit. It should be noted that a significant percentage of the
<br />per unit fee is actually due to other agency charges.

<br />Notes:
<br />1. Projects based on samples obtained from planning and development staff.
<br />2. The project receives fee credits from the OCSD and TSIA.
<br />In recent years, many cities have adopted inclusionary ordinances and in -lieu fee
<br />requirements to finance the development of housing affordable to a mix of
<br />household income levels. The City adopted Housing Opportunity ordinance to
<br />require residential project over five units to include 15 percent of the overall
<br />project as affordable housing. The impact on developers can be reduced through
<br />the pursuit of density bonus benefits.
