that time, the City has adopted Design Guidelines and Standards and the recent changes relative <br /> to the authority of inclusionary zoning ordinances has diminished the City's IZO's authority. <br /> Notwithstanding this situation, staff remains committed to maximizing the number of affordable <br /> units in each development and will attempt to develop mutual understandings with future <br /> developers that a mixed income development is one that best meets the overall needs of the <br /> community. <br /> It should also be noted that a total of five of the affordable units will be available for rent at <br /> 100% AMI which is generally above the desired AMI level of 80% or less. While staff would <br /> have preferred these units be at 80% AMI, recent City Council actions, including the recently <br /> approved Civic Square Apartment project, included rents above this mark. The purpose of these <br /> rents is to assure that those households with "workforce" income limits have opportunities to <br /> obtain rents with some protection against significant rent increases that may result in a <br /> marginally affordable rent becoming unaffordable. <br /> Following the Commission's decision on this matter this development will be reviewed by the <br /> Planning Commission for PUD review. The City Council will then decided on both the PUD <br /> and the recommended affordable housing agreement. <br /> P(fgr- 5 - <br />
