B. Review and Findings. 1. An application for a density bonus, incentive or concession, or waiver or modification, pursuant to this chapter shall be considered by and acted upon by the approval body with authority to approve the housing development. Any decision regarding a density bonus, incentive, concession, or waiver or modification, may be appealed to the planning commission and from the planning commission to the city council. 2.

Before approving an application for a density bonus, incentive or concession, or waiver or modification of a development standard, the approval body shall make the following findings: a. If an incentive or concession is requested, that the incentive or concession results in necessary, identifiable, financially sufficient, and actual cost reductions that could not be achieved without the incentive or concession. b. If a waiver or modification of a development standard is requested, that the waiver or modification is necessary to make the housing units economically feasible at the densities permitted and with any eligible concessions or incentives. c. If the density bonus is based all or in part on donation of land, the project meets the criteria in Section 17.38.080(B). d. If the density bonus, incentive, or concession is based all or in part on the inclusion of a child care facility, the project meets the findings included in Section 17.38.090(B). 4. If a request for an incentive or concession is otherwise consistent with this chapter, the approval body may deny an incentive or concession if it makes a written finding, based upon substantial evidence, of any of the following: a. The concession or incentive is not required to provide for affordable rents or affordable ownership costs. Docusign Envelope ID: 88F9D41F-89FB-4400-B0AF-42A9BB94F8D7
