I I.Incentivize Affordable Housing <br /> Traditionally cities exact fees and have requirements.Are there any <br /> incentives that the city could use to promote affordable housing?Faster plan <br /> check?Clear and concise design standards?Quicker inspections'?Where are <br /> the carrots to balance the sticks? <br /> Notes: <br /> • The fact that our out-commute is like other cities in the Tri-Valley is no <br /> reason to continue the status quo. Livermore's 20%could be a goal. (Page 3 <br /> footnote) <br /> • The 1799 Pleasanton households that earn 80-100%AMI probably include <br /> many retired homeowners like me who enjoy Proposition 13 benefits and <br /> might be willing to downsize if there were more choices.That's why I'm <br /> building an ADU,to create my own downsized home.As more of us move, <br /> only very high-income homeowners will be able to buy our homes,further <br /> increasing our Above Moderate-Income housing stock and increasing the <br /> need for 80-110 AMI%affordable housing.(Page 5 first paragraph) <br /> Thank you for the opportunity to comment on these important policies. <br /> Jocelyn Combs <br /> 3 <br />
