■ Research efforts examined similar ordinances in Los Angeles, Long Beach,
Pasadena and Phoenix
Key elements of Proposed code
■ Establishes project incentive areas.
■ Creates a criteria for eligible buildings — pre-1974.
■ Reduces development standards.
■ Provides flexibility in meeting the building code.

General Plan and include equitable, innovative, business friendly zoning
practices.
■ Strategy 3. Promote a solutions -based customer focus in all efforts to
facilitate development and investment in the community.
■ 3c. Explore opportunities to encourage a business friendly environment
within the city through the reduction of non -essential regulatory

review and addition of monetary incentives (e.g. sales tax sharing,
enhancing Small Business Incentive Program, etc.).
■ Strategy 5. Leverage private investment that results in tax base expansion
and job creation citywide.
