Affordable Housing Incentives Fine
HousingDevelopment
The city proposes a zoning code text amendment to write the existing $100-per-day, per-unit fine for violations of the Affordable Housing Incentives program directly into the Zoning Code, since the current fee schedule cannot legally list fines. The change affects Chapter 21A.20 (Enforcement) and does not alter the fine amount.
Official description: Mayor Erin Mendenhall has initiated a petition for a text amendment to add the fine for violation of the City’s Affordable Housing Incentives (AHI) program into the City’s Zoning Code. Currently, the Zoning Code refers to the City’s “Consolidated Fee Schedule” (CFS) for the fine, but that document legally cannot list fines. The fine that was adopted by the City Council when the Affordable Housing Incentives were adopted is $100.00 per day per affordable unit that is in violation of the approved incentives. The proposed amendment will place that specific fine in the Zoning Code itself, instead of referring to the CFS. The amendment affects Chapter 21A.20 “Enforcement” of the City’s Zoning Code.
