02:00 PM -- SB17-086
Senator Fenberg, sponsor, presented Senate Bill 17-086 to the committee. Under current law, local governments are prohibited from enacting any ordinance or resolution that would control rent on any private residential property or housing unit. The bill clarifies that this prohibition does not include ordinances or resolutions that require inclusionary housing or inclusionary zoning as a condition of obtaining approval for a development project.
The bill defines inclusionary housing or inclusionary zoning as a program that requires the provision of residential units affordable to and occupied by owners or tenants whose income does not exceed a limit that is established by the ordinance or resolution. These programs may include:
• requiring property owner or developer to set aside a percentage of units that are affordable to households with certain incomes;
• offering incentives to property owners or developers for setting affordable rents;
• providing alternate options for a property owner or developer, such as cash-in-lieu of affordable units or dedicating land to the local government;
• targeting a specific income range to benefit from inclusionary programs; and
• specifying the time period that housing must stay affordable.
The bill applies to ordinances or resolutions enacted on or after July 1, 2017.
