Strategies for ensuring adequate housing production

Develop responsive development incentives based on housing production the previous year.  

Develop incentives for building forms that are better for neighbors and new residents.
– Skylights, sunrooms, and balconies
– Enclosed garages, which cannot otherwise be required per (SB 6015)
– Mudroom/entryway capacity for bike storage
– Space for larger trees on-site

Create a senior housing incentive with age restriction and at least one unit that is ramp-accessible.

If we offer fee-in-lieu, possibly control the number offered each year and target them at particular unit sizes.

Identify locations with both access to transit and proximity to neighborhood/growth centers that would be good places for us to extend sixplex and co-housing zoning in the event housing production falls below targets.
