If it is desired to have an impact fee as an alternative, also determine the <br /> fee based on the nexus study. <br /> Such an ordinance would be very similar to existing inclusionary ordinances, except that <br /> only an impact fee would be required for new rental housing. <br /> C. The Mixed Exactions/Land Use Approach <br /> Another approach uses the exactions approach for rentals and the land use control <br /> approach for ownership housing. Its treatment of rental housing is identical to that in the <br /> previous option. <br /> • Complete a nexus study for rental housing only. <br /> • Impose a housing impact fee on new rentals(usually a dollar amount per sq. ft.). <br /> 17 <br /> 990051\1\720372.3 <br /> 8/7/2009 <br />
