NATIONAL GUN VIOLENCE AWARENESS DAY
This proclamation declares the first Friday in June to be National Gun Violence Awareness Day in the City of Orinda to honor and remember all victims and survivors of gun violence and to declare that we as a country must do more to end this public health crisis.
WHEREAS, every day, more than 120 Americans are killed by gun violence and more than 200 are shot and wounded, with an average of more than 17,000 gun homicides every year; and WHEREAS, Americans are 26 times more likely to die by gun homicide than people in other high-income countries; and
WHEREAS, in an average year, 3253 people die by guns in California, with a rate of eight deaths per 100,000 people, a crisis that costs the state $41.9 billion each year, of which $1.1 billion is paid by taxpayers; and
WHEREAS, gun homicides and assaults are concentrated in cities, with more than half of all firearm related gun deaths in the nation occurring in 127 cities; and WHEREAS, cities across the nation, including Orinda, are working to end the senseless violence with evidence-based solutions; and
WHEREAS, protecting public safety in the communities they serve is this Mayor’s and this City Council’s highest responsibility and a key City priority; and WHEREAS, support for the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens goes hand-inhand with keeping guns away from people with dangerous histories; and WHEREAS, Mayors and law enforcement officers —in partnership with local violence intervention activists and resources —know their communities best, are the most familiar with local criminal activity and how to address it, and are best positioned to understand how to keep their citizens safe; and
WHEREAS, gun violence prevention is more important than ever as we see an increase in firearm homicides, and nonfatal shootings across the country, increased calls to domestic violence hotlines, and an increase in city gun violence across the nation; WHEREAS, in January 2013, Hadiya Pendleton was tragically shot and killed at age 15; and on June 2, 2023 to recognize the 26th birthday of Hadiya Pendleton (born: June 2, 1997), people across the United States will recognize National Gun Violence Awareness Day and wear orange in tribute to -
(1) Hadiya Pendleton and other victims of gun violence; and (2) the loved ones of those victims; and
WHEREAS, the idea was inspired by a group of Hadiya’s friends, who asked their classmates to commemorate her life by wearing orange; they chose this color because hunters wear orange to announce themselves to other hunters when out in the woods, and orange is a color that symbolizes the value of human life; and

On a quarterly basis, Chandler prepares a report which includes City initiated transactions and balances in the City’s LAIF account. Although the LAIF funds are not managed by Chandler, including this data makes it possible to present all of the quarterly investment data in a single consolidated report.
Quarterly Report Prepared By Chandler Asset Management
The March 31, 2023 report prepared by Chandler (Attachment A) contains the following components:
1) Economic Update - provides general economic background on key indicators that may impact the investment results. This information is useful background in evaluating the performance of the portfolio as well as expected trends. (Attachment A pages 2-12).
2) Account Profile - describes the objectives and strategy used for the portfolio, compliance with the adopted investment policy, and key data related to the issuers included in the combined portfolio. This section breaks down the consolidated portfolio to provide key performance data for each sub-account: General Reserve; and LAIF. (Attachment A pages 13-27) Pages 15-16 is a table showing compliance status - General Portfolio.
3) Consolidated Information - combined portfolio characteristics for all of the subaccounts that are described in Section 1 above (General Reserve and LAIF). (Attachment A pages 28-30)
4) Portfolio Holdings - provides a detail for each security held in the portfolio including; F.1
Packet Pg. 25
purchase date, maturity date, market value, and rating. The section presents the holdings grouped by each sub-account (General Reserve and LAIF). (Attachment A pages 31-38)
5) Transactions - shows all purchases, sale of holdings and maturities for each month in the quarter. (Attachment A pages 39-43)
DISCUSSION:
All of the funds in the report are in compliance with the City’s Investment Policy and the Government Code in terms of allowed investments. The comparison information provided below is based on the original cost of investments. As shown below, the City had approximately $33.8 million invested as of March 31, 2023 and it was divided between investments in the State Treasurer Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) and funds managed by Chandler investments.
The following table provides a comparison of balances at December 31, 2022 and March 31, 2023.
As shown above there was an increase of approximately $2.7 million from the previous quarter.
It is appropriate to keep in mind that the portfolio reflects all types of funds and is not limited to the General Fund. The City operates with a system of pooled cash which includes Restricted Funds, Debt Service Funds, Capital Project Funds, as well as General Fund. As a comparison, the total portfolio one year ago (as of March 31, 2022) was $34.3 million. The change in the portfolio balance should not be equated with the cash balance of any specific fund. The Finance Department reports information related to cash balances as part of monthly reports of disbursement.
The table below contains a more detailed view of the portfolio including the type of securities held.

Packet Pg. 26
The mix of investments shows an decrease in Corporate Notes, Asset Backed Securities and US Agencies and a decrease in US Treasuries and LAIF. Although the attached report includes market values, the Table above provides values on a cost basis. The market value will vary both up or down from the original cost. For the most part the City tends to hold most securities until maturity, so the cost basis is more closely aligned with expected performance.
Portfolio Performance
The overall average purchase yield to maturity on the total portfolio was 2.43% which in the current environment has been increasing (Previous quarter was 1.91%). The reported purchase yield was 0.62% one year ago (Quarter ending March 31, 2022). These figures relate to the combined portfolio including both LAIF and the Reserve funds managed by Chandler. The Chandler investments are looked at separately, their average purchase yield is 1.5%, which is trending up from the prior quarter.
The following excerpt is from page 12 of Attachment A shows the increase in US Treasury Notes since 2021, and especially with the shorter term investments (dotted line is the two year Treasury which had been flat for the previous 18 months but has started increasing during quarter ending December 2021). As a reminder the City cannot invest in bonds with a maturity of more than 5 years and the Benchmark maturity guiding the portfolio selection is an average maturity of 1.84 years. As of March 31, 2023 the Reserve portfolio managed by Chandler had a slightly longer average maturity of 1.83 years.
F.1
Packet Pg. 27
The current interest rate environment is expected to show continued signs of inflation due to Federal policy and world events. The important consideration for public funds in this environment is the safety of the investments. The investments owned by the City are of a high quality as required by the investment policy.
The Transaction Data included in the report displays all transactions including the settlement date. During the three-month period ending March 31, 2023, among the funds managed by Chandler there was: $731,155 in purchased securities; $0 in securities sold; and $650,000 in maturities. In the LAIF Account there was a contribution of interest, $4.5 million in deposits and $2.0 million in withdrawals.
The City also maintains liquidity using LAIF combined with shorter maturities in the Reserve portfolio to protect against the need to liquidate an investment before maturity. The portfolio will allow the City to have adequate funds to meet its cash flow requirements for the next six months.

Economic trends have been decelerating along with tighter financial conditions and restrictive monetary policy. Recent data suggests positive but below trend growth this year. Although the pace of job growth is moderating, labor markets remain solid, and the U.S. consumer has demonstrated resiliency. Market participants and the Federal Reserve are maintaining very divergent views regarding the future trajectory of monetary policy. Given the cumulative effects of tighter monetary policy and stress in the banking sector, we believe the Federal Reserve is likely near a pause in their rate hiking campaign. If moderate growth continues, we believe the Fed will likely maintain the Federal Funds rate in restrictive territory until inflationary pressures subside.
At the March meeting, the Federal Open Market Committee voted unanimously to raise the target federal funds rate by
0.25% to a range of 4.75 – 5.00%. Fed Chair Powell reiterated the committee’s focus on bringing down inflation to their 2% target; however, the committee softened language about "ongoing increases" in rates in the prior statement to "some additional policy firming may be appropriate". The statement also emphasized that the U.S. banking system is “sound and resilient” and acknowledged the tightening of financial conditions. The Chandler team believes the FOMC is likely near a pause in their rate hiking cycle.
In March, the yield curve inversion narrowed. The 2-year Treasury yield plummeted 79 basis points to 4.03%, the 5-year Treasury yield plunged 61 basis points to 3.58%, and the 10-year Treasury yield fell 45 basis points to 3.47%. The inversion between the 2-year Treasury yield and 10-year Treasury yield declined to -56 basis points at March month-end versus -90 basis points at February month-end. There was no spread between the 2-year Treasury and 10-year Treasury yield one year ago – the yields were approximately equal. The inversion between 3-month and 10-year Treasuries widened to -128 in March from -89 basis points in February. The shape of the yield curve indicates that the probability of recession is increasing.

The U.S. economy added 236,000 jobs in March, and the prior two months were revised downward by 17,000. Although the pace of job growth is moderating, employment remains strong, with the three-month moving average payrolls at 345,000 and the six-month moving average at 315,000. The private sector reported broad gains, led by leisure and hospitality. The unemployment rate fell to 3.5% due to a sharp rise in the number of people employed, and the participation rate increased to 62.6% from 62.5% in February. The U-6 underemployment rate, which includes those who are marginally attached to the labor force and employed part time for economic reasons, declined to 6.7% from the prior month at 6.8%. Average hourly earnings rose 4.2% year-over-year in March, down from a 4.6% increase in February. Job Openings dipped to 9.9 million, the first drop below 10 million since May of 2021. While the overall pace of hiring is slowing, levels remain consistent with a solid labor market.

The Consumer Price Index (CPI) increased in February 0.4% month-over-month and 6.0% year-over-year, down from 6.4% in January. The Core CPI, which excludes volatile food and energy components, rose 0.5% month-over-month and 5.5% year-over-year, decelerating from 5.6% in January. Shelter costs were the primary factor in the headline CPI representing 70% of the increase. Of note, used car prices experienced a significant drop of 13.6% when compared to a year ago, the largest decline since 1960. The Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) index rose 5.0% year-over-year in February, improving from a 5.3% year-over-year gain in January. Core PCE, the Federal Reserve’s preferred inflation gauge, increased 4.6% year-over-year in February, the smallest increase since October 2021. Inflationary trends are declining but remain above the Fed's 2% target.

Retail sales rose 5.4% year-over-year in February, versus January’s upwardly revised 7.7% year-over-year gain. The overall report exceeded expectations and points toward the resilience of the U.S. consumer. The Conference Board’s Consumer Confidence Index unexpectedly increased to 104.2 in March from 103.4 in February. While high inflation and recession concerns remain top of mind for many consumers, the strong labor market and low unemployment continue to support the strength in Consumer Confidence.

Total housing starts rose 9.8% month-over-month in February to 1,450,000 units and were down 18.4% compared to February 2022. Starts for both single-family and multi-family homes increased as mortgage rates declined from recent peaks. The 30-year fixed rate mortgage fell to an average of 6.24% according to Freddie Mac, down from a peak of 7.08% in October, but up from 4.67% a year ago. According to the Case-Shiller 20-City Home Price Index, the year-over-year increase continued its declining rate of gain to +2.55% in January from +4.62% in December, clearly displaying the impact of higher mortgage rates year-over-year, which have reduced demand for homebuying as affordability has declined.

The Institute for Supply Management (ISM) manufacturing index fell to 46.3 in March from 47.7 in February. This is the fifth consecutive month of readings below 50.0, which is indicative of contraction in the manufacturing sector. All components weakened, including the headline, new orders, employment, and prices. Industrial production was flat in February after an upward revision to +0.3% in January. This equates to a -

At the March meeting, the Federal Open Market Committee voted unanimously to raise the target federal funds rate by 0.25% to a range of
4.75 – 5.00%. Fed Chair Powell reiterated the committee’s focus on bringing down inflation to their 2% target; however, the committee softened language about "ongoing increases" in rates in the prior statement to "some additional policy firming may be appropriate". The statement also emphasized that the U.S. banking system is “sound and resilient” and acknowledged the tightening in financial conditions.
Powell indicated that the extent of these effects is uncertain but speculated that tighter credit conditions could be equivalent to a rate hike or more. The Summary of Economic Projections was little changed, with the consensus target federal funds rate rising to 5.1% by the end of 2023 (implying one more quarter point hike), falling to 4.3% in 2024 (up from 4.1% previously), and declining to 3.1% by the end of 2025. No rate cuts were in the Fed’s base case for this year, contrary to the market consensus. Although projections imply policymakers are winding down interest rate hikes, the statement clearly reflected optionality for the Fed to remain data dependent. The Chandler team believes the Fed is likely near a pause in their rate hiking cycle.

Our valuation procedures are also disclosed in Item 5 of our Form ADV Part 2A.
Performance results are presented gross-of-advisory fees and represent the client’s Total Return. The deduction of advisory fees lowers performance results. These results include the reinvestment of dividends and other earnings. Past performance may not be indicative of future results. Therefore, clients should not assume that future performance of any specific investment or investment strategy will be profitable or equal to past performance levels. All investment strategies have the potential for profit or loss. Economic factors, market conditions or changes in investment strategies, contributions or withdrawals may materially alter the performance and results of your portfolio.
Index returns assume reinvestment of all distributions. Historical performance results for investment indexes generally do not reflect the deduction of transaction and/or custodial charges or the deduction of an investment management fee, the incurrence of which would have the effect of decreasing historical performance results. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.

Fixed income investments are subject to interest, credit and market risk. Interest rate risk: the value of fixed income investments will decline as interest rates rise. Credit risk: the possibility that the borrower may not be able to repay interest and principal. Low rated bonds generally have to pay higher interest rates to attract investors willing to take on greater risk. Market risk: the bond market in general could decline due to economic conditions, especially during periods of rising interest rates.
Ratings information have been provided by Moody’s, S&P and Fitch through data feeds we believe to be reliable as of the date of this statement, however we cannot guarantee its accuracy.
Security level ratings for U.S. Agency issued mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) reflect the issuer rating because the securities themselves are not rated. The issuing U.S. Agency guarantees the full and timely payment of both principal and interest and carries a AA+/Aaa/AAA by S&P, Moody’s and Fitch respectively.
Your qualified custodian bank maintains control of all assets reflected in this statement and we urge you to compare this statement to the one you receive from your qualified custodian. Chandler does not have any authority to withdraw or deposit funds from/to the custodian account.

AGENDA TITLE: Approve Engineer's Report for the Levy of Annual Assessments; Providing Notice of Intention to Levy Annual Assessments; and Set June 6, 2023 as the date for the Hearing on the Levy of Assessments for Orinda Street Lighting and Landscaping Assessment District No. 1986-1 Zones L-42, M-9 and M-11 for Fiscal Year Ending June 30, 2024.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt Resolution No. 34-23, Approving the Engineer's Report for the Levy of Annual Assessments for Fiscal Year Ending June 30, 2024, Orinda Street Lighting and Landscaping Assessment District No. 1986-1, Zones L-42, M-9 and M-11 and Resolution No. 35-23, Intention to Levy and Collect Assessments for Fiscal Year Ending 2024 within the Orinda Street Lighting and Landscaping Assessment District No. 1986-1 Zones L-42,
M-9 and M-11.
BACKGROUND:
The Orinda Street Lighting and Landscape Assessment District No. 1986-1 (AD 86-1) consists of three distinct zones of benefit. These zones are former County Service Areas. Assessment District 86-1 was created upon incorporation to continue similar services. A description of each zone is shown below:
• The L-42 Zone finances the cost of residential street lighting within four neighborhoods in South Orinda. These neighborhoods are:
o Tahos Road from just north of Bates Blvd to the south cul-de-sac including Bates Court, Silverwood Court, and Oakridge Court; Meadow View Road from Meadow Lane to the north cul-de-sac
o Valley Drive from Heather Lane to south of Valley Court o Courtney Lane
o Martha Road and Catherine Court (cul-de-sac sections of both streets) • The M-9 Zone finances the cost of residential street lighting in the Orinda Downs area along the following streets:
Dalewood Drive Amber Valley Drive Sundown Terrace
Redcoach Lane Singingwood Lane Silver Oak Terrace
Coachwood Terrace Fallen Leaf Terrace Happy Valley Road • The M-11 Zone is comprised of commercial properties in the Village and Crossroads areas, and finances the cost of part or all of the following services:
F.2
Packet Pg. 74
o street lighting
o street sweeping
o litter pickup
o landscape maintenance (median islands, right-of-way, and mini-parks) o water and electric utilities for landscaping (water, electrical irrigation) The service levels for this zone are reviewed on an annual basis.
An election was held in July 1999 in the District to increase assessments and provide for future adjustments to the assessments based on the annual change in the consumer price index (CPI). The increases were approved within the L-42 zone and M-9 zone, but not within the M-11 zone.
For Zones L-42 and Zone M-9 which are authorized to be adjusted the practice used by the City, is to calculate the adjustment based on the annual change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) as reported for San Francisco-Oakland-Hayward, CA, all urban consumers. The report is published bi-monthly and the February report is used for the calculation. The Federal Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that between February 2022 and February 2023 the index increased by 5.30%.
DISCUSSION:
The City Council is required to establish the budget and levy assessments within each of the three zones of benefit annually in order to continue financing the services within the assessment district. The first step in the assessment levy process is the adoption of a resolution ordering engineering assistance in the preparation and filing of the report, which was done at the City Council Meeting of April 18, 2023. The next step is to approve the Engineer's Report (Attachment A), to declare the City's intention to levy and collect assessments and to set the date for the public hearing regarding the assessments. Adoption of Resolution No. 34-23 and No. 35-23 (Attachments B and C) will satisfy the requirements and will set the public hearing date for Zones L-42, M-9 and M-11 for June 6, 2023.
The City utilizes the firm of NBS to prepare the Engineers report and process the levy that is delivered to the Contra Costa County Tax Collector. It should be noted that Zone M-11 does not have an inflator due to majority opposition in the 1999 assessment ballot proceeding.
The subject Engineer's report establishes the proposed budgets for the next fiscal year for each zone, the estimate of actual costs for the current fiscal year and a statement regarding the basis for the assessment levy on properties. The Engineer's report also refers to several exhibits that provide background data; the original exhibits are on file in the City Clerk's office. There are no proposed changes to the district boundaries for the upcoming fiscal year.

Section 5 of the Engineer's Report provides both projected revenues and expenses for FY 2022-23 and a proposed budget for Fiscal Year Ending June 30, 2024 for the Orinda Street Lighting and Landscaping Assessment District No. 1986-1. The types of expenditures remain consistent with the previous years. Zones L42 and M9 are projected to have a reserve balance, which is within the allowed reserve under State laws related to assessment districts. It should be noted that Zone L-42 continues to maintain a relatively high reserve. This reserve is established primarily to cover future replacement costs when a city owned street light pole within Zone L-42 requires replacement. Such poles are Caltrans Type poles of steel construction and if replaced would cost an estimated $16,000 each, depending on pole base conditions.
As shown in each of the zones the General Fund Contribution fully offsets any “general benefits,” which complies with the requirements for an assessment to only levy the costs of the special benefits. Zone M-11 operates with a significant General Fund Contribution beyond the amount required to cover the “general benefit costs”.
The amount of the General Fund contribution to Zone M11 has fluctuated from year to year as shown below:

FISCAL IMPACT:
The proposed Fiscal Year 2023-2024 Assessments to be collected from parcels in Assessment District 86-1 (all zones) will provide $60,029 to partially offset $108,574 of costs. The General Fund will contribute $51,164 towards the costs which includes funding general benefits that cannot be funded from special assessments.

1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City of Orinda (the “City”), State of California, has directed NBS, to prepare and file a report presenting plans and specifications describing the general nature, location, and extent of the improvements to be maintained, and an estimate of the costs of the maintenance, operations, and servicing of the improvements for the Orinda Street Lighting and Landscape Assessment District No. 1986-1 (the “District”) for Fiscal Year 2023/24 pursuant to the provisions of the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, Part 2, Division 15 of the California Streets and Highways Code (commencing with Section 22500) (the “Act”).
This Annual Engineer’s Report (the “Report”) includes a background of the District and an overview of the proposed assessment; diagrams of the District, showing the area and properties proposed to be assessed; a description of the general nature, location, and extent of the existing and expanded improvement; an estimate of the increased cost of maintenance for the existing and new improvements including a contribution for general benefit; the rationale utilized to assess the estimated costs of the maintenance, operations, and servicing of the improvements; and the net amount to be assessed upon all assessable lots or parcels within the District in proportion to the special benefit received.
The assessment rate and the annual rate escalation factor of the annual percentage change in the February San Francisco Bay Area Consumer Price Index were approved by property owners through the assessment balloting procedures set forth in Section 4 of Article XIIID of the California Constitution at a public hearing for Zone L-42 and Zone M-9 in July of 1999.
The following assessment is made to cover the portion of the estimated costs to pay for installation, construction, servicing, and maintenance of public lighting and landscape improvements in proportion to the special benefit received. The assessments for Fiscal Year 2023/24 have been levied in accordance with the assessment methodology as confirmed by the City Council upon the formation of the District and are proportional to the special benefit received by each parcel.

2. OVERVIEW
2.1 Introduction
The maintenance of public landscaping and street lighting improvements within certain areas of the City is administered by the District. Prior to incorporation, these services were administered under former County Service Areas L-42, M-9, and M-11. These former service areas are now identified as zones within the District. Zone L-42 is comprised of residential areas with streetlights south of the freeway. Zone M-9 is the Orinda Downs residential area. Zone M-11 consists of the commercial and institutional properties in the Village and the Crossroads. The boundaries of the District include the land within the original County Service Areas plus certain parcels that were annexed to Zone M-11 in 1988. The District was formed in August of 1986 by City Council Resolutions No. 62-86, 63-86, and 64-86 for Zones M-9, M-11, and L-42, respectively, pursuant to the provisions of the Act.
This Report describes the District and the assessment per parcel for Fiscal Year 2023/24 to provide for the levy and collection of assessments sufficient to pay for the installation, construction, servicing, and maintenance of public lighting and landscape improvements within the District boundaries.
The word “parcel,” for the purposes of this Report, refers to an individual property assigned its own Assessor’s Parcel Number by the Contra Costa County Assessor’s Office. The Contra Costa County Auditor/Controller uses Assessor’s Parcel Numbers and specific fund numbers to identify on the tax roll, properties assessed for special district benefit assessments.
Following consideration of public comments at a noticed public hearing, and review of the Report, the City Council may confirm the Report as submitted and may order the levy and collection of assessments for Fiscal Year 2023/24. If approved, the assessment information shall be submitted to the County Auditor/Controller and included on the property tax roll for each benefiting parcel for Fiscal Year 2023/24.
2.2 Summary
The District consists of three distinct zones, named after the former County Services Areas, which preceded them prior to incorporation, and managed as three separate accounts within the existing district.
Residential lots are presumed to benefit equally from street lighting. This benefit is considered to be special to each lot within their respective zones. Only properties with streetlights are included in the District and are assessed. In a few circumstances lots not included in the District are located directly across or adjacent to a streetlight and receive benefit. This benefit to property not located within the District is termed “general benefit.” It has been offset by a contribution from the City. Approval of this Report by the City Council is deemed to constitute approval of the transfer of the amounts stated in the estimate of costs to the assessment district fund.
2.3 Effect of Proposition 218
In each year since formation, the City Council has levied assessments within the District. Assessments in Zones L-42 and M-9 were increased pursuant to a successful Proposition 218 assessment ballot proceeding conducted in July 1999. The increase included an annual cost of living adjustment. Assessments in Zone M-11 have not been increased since 1996 due to the majority protest in the 1999 assessment ballot proceeding.

5. ESTIMATE OF COSTS
The adopted cost for Fiscal 2021/22, 2022/23 and 2023/24 for Zones L-42, M-9, and M-11 are indicated in Tables 1, 2, and 3, respectively. The total cost of the improvements in each zone has been reduced by a contribution from the City for the general benefit which is estimated to be received by property outside of the District boundaries.
5.1 Maximum Reserve
The maximum reserve permitted in any year is calculated as the annual maintenance budget necessary to maintain the improvements through December 10 of the fiscal year, or whenever the City expects to receive its apportionment of funds from Contra Costa County, plus the installment payment reserve authorized by resolution of the City Council.

6. METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT
6.1 Assessment Rational
The improvements to be serviced and maintained by the District have been constructed for the benefit of the properties within the District and are of special benefit to the various parcels of land within the zone boundaries. They improve the quality of life on a day-to-day basis by providing an attractive, clean, safe, and secure environment in which to live and work. The relative benefits estimated to be received from the improvements by improved and unimproved use within the District are discussed in the following paragraphs.
6.2 Zones L-42 and M-9
6.2.1 SPECIAL BENEFIT
Street lighting increases security for homeowners and improves the appearance of property frontage during the hours of darkness. Street lighting also improves safety for motorists and the safety of pedestrians. It facilitates law enforcement and thereby improves property security. Security and appearance are property benefits. Traffic and pedestrian safety are related to parcel use or occupancy. The District provides funding for a minimum level of street lighting throughout Zones L-42 and M-9. Typical lighting for residential neighborhoods consists of 70-watt bulbs located at intersections and at mid-block.
The spacing of lights is approximately 500 feet.
6.2.2 APPORTIONMENT OF SPECIAL BENEFIT
The estimated special benefit received by improved residential parcels from street lighting is directly proportionate to that parcel’s lighted frontage. Street lighting is distributed uniformly throughout the zones and all parcels have essentially the same level of illumination. Parcel frontages may be seen to vary due to location, for example cul-de-sac or corner lots, and due to topography as may be seen with hillside lots. This variation in parcel frontage is seen to be of little consequence in terms of the relative benefit received by a single-family residential parcel, i.e., cul-de-sac and corner lots benefit the same from street lighting as do mid-block lots. It is reasonable to assume that each single-family residential lot receives the same benefit from street lighting, and each is assessed an equal unit of street lighting benefit.
6.2.3 OPEN SPACE AND SCENIC EASEMENTS
These parcels do not have lighted frontage paid for by the District and do not benefit from street lighting and, therefore, have not been assessed.
6.2.4 UNIMPROVED PARCELS
Unimproved parcels benefit less from lighting than improved parcels in that the former requires a reduced level of maintenance service. Mid-block lighting is standard for developed property while intersection only lights are adequate for undeveloped property. The same maintenance, however, is required for street lighting whether the property is developed or not. For example, street lighting systems unattended will require extraordinary expense to reactivate if minimum maintenance is not performed. It is concluded that for Zone L-42 and Zone M-9 the benefit received by an undeveloped or unimproved lot is half that received F.2.a

by an improved lot.
Large undeveloped or commercial parcels within the residential zones are assigned units according to the engineer's opinion of the estimated benefits to be received. Undeveloped parcels are assigned one-half the number of units assigned to an occupied parcel. The assessment for common areas is included in the assessment for the developed lots and common areas are not assessed.
The property at 32 Broadview Terrace is not assessed as there is no public lighting on this street. The properties on Orinda View Road, Candle Terrace, Yarrow Valley Lane, and the northern (private road) segment of Dalewood Drive are not assessed as the lighting on these streets is paid for by the Homeowners' Association.
6.3 Zone M-11
6.3.1 SPECIAL BENEFIT
Street lighting increases security for businesses and improves the appearance of property frontage during the hours of darkness. Street lighting also improves safety for motorists and safety for pedestrians. Security and appearance are special benefits to property. Traffic and pedestrian safety are related to parcel use or occupancy. Increased levels of lighting are required for increased use of property.
The maintenance of landscaped areas on public streets improves the appearance of private property.
Landscaping not maintained will perish and the cost of replacement may be prohibitively expensive.
Plantings not maintained are weakened and are more vulnerable to damage from passing vehicles, exhaust, litter, and debris. Median plantings are susceptible to daily wear and tear from exposure to adjacent traffic and the greater the traffic flow the greater the exposure. Therefore, increased visibility generally requires increased levels of service. Median landscaping that is maintained contributes to a positive image in the commercial areas of the District while median landscaping that is not maintained encourages a negative image. Landscaped areas on public streets that are maintained provide benefit to nearby properties. Attractive landscaping will assist property owners with the marketing of undeveloped lots. Increased levels of maintenance are a function of parcel use.
The landscape services performed within the zone include street sweeping, litter and debris removal, medians and street trees are well distributed throughout the zone. Parcel location is not considered a factor in determining benefit.
In 1997, the Orinda Downtown Vision Task Force identified certain goals and objectives that would reflect the community values articulated in the Orinda General Plan. Street lighting, street sweeping, litter pickup, and landscaping are amenities and services that may be considered as parts of the whole for achieving the objectives and goals expressed by the Orinda Downtown Vision Task Force. These amenities, street lighting, street sweeping, litter pickup, and landscaped areas contribute to business and pedestrian friendliness as requested in the Orinda Downtown Vision Task Force Final Report, dated November 18, 1997, and revised November 19, 1997.
6.3.2 APPORTIONMENT OF SPECIAL BENEFIT
The land use in Zone M-11 is commercial, institutional, and residential. The benefit received by a parcel F.2.a
Packet Pg. 88
Attachment: Orinda_LMD 1986-1_EngRpt_FY 23-24 (3106 : LL District 1986-1 2nd meeting Resos etc) Orinda Street Lighting and Landscape Assessment District No. 1986-1 Annual Engineer’s Report Fiscal Year 2023/24 8
within Zone M-11 is related to the area of that parcel and to the use of the parcel in equal proportion.
Four intensities of land use may be observed within Zone M-11. These are parcels that are undeveloped, parcels with onsite parking, parcels without onsite parking, and parcels with underground parking (Theatre Square). Parcels with parking improvements only, are treated as undeveloped parcels.
The benefit that a parcel derives from the maintenance of landscaping and lighting is proportional to the amount of building coverage or floor area ratio. Benefit factors are assigned to four land use categories as follows:
A parcel with a building and off-street parking is identified as the basic unit of assessment with a benefit factor of 1.0 unit. Undeveloped land or parcels with only parking improvements are assigned a benefit factor of 0.5 units. Parcels for which the ratio of building square footage to square footage of land exceeds
0.75 are assigned a benefit factor of 1.5 units. Parcels with underground parking are assigned a benefit factor of 2.0 units.
6.4 General Benefit
6.4.1 RESIDENTIAL STREET LIGHTING
Street lighting is of specific benefit to the fronting properties. The benefit derived by the community at large from street lighting on residential streets is negligible. There are, however, parcels immediately adjacent or opposite and not included within the District that do benefit from the streetlights paid for by Zone M-9 and Zone L-42 assessments. The benefit derived by these parcels is not assessable.
6.4.2 ZONE L-42
In 1988, at the direction of the City Council, the District Engineer prepared a study of lots in Zone L-42 that are located outside the District boundaries and adjacent or opposite to streetlights paid for by Zone L-42.
In all, 30 parcels were identified as follows:
Tahos Road, Meadow View Road, Valley Drive, Donald Drive, Cedar Lane, and Martha Road for a total of 10 lights. There are 121 lots in Zone L-42. Twenty percent is of general benefit to the lots outside of Zone L-42.
The cost to maintain these lights is therefore considered to be (0.20 x 10 x 120 = $240).
6.4.3 ZONE M-9
The light at the southern boundary of Zone M-9 on Lombardy Lane is of benefit to three lots (numbers 181, 184, and 188) on Lombardy Lane. One third of the cost to maintain this light (approximately $40) is considered to be of general benefit. The amount of the proposed contribution by the City exceeds $40 and will more than offset the described general benefit.

6.4.4 ZONE M-11
The service and maintenance of the following items are considered to be of benefit to the general public and for owners of property located outside of the District.
DESCRIPTION ESTIMATE OF COSTS
Water $700
Maintenance of the mini park located at Camino Pablo and Brookside/Freeway off ramp 6,300
Maintenance of medians on Camino Pablo 6,000
Service and streetlights on Comino Pablo 1,500
Benefits received by Santa Maria Church and adjoining parcels 1,300 Total: $15,800
The amount of the proposed contribution by the City exceeds $15,800 and will more than offset the described general benefit. Additionally, the City contributes a proportionate share of the NPDES revenues that it receives for the properties in M-11 to the District fund. These NPDES revenues are used to offset the cost of street sweeping.
6.4.5 EXCEPTIONAL PARCELS
Exceptional parcels were identified as follows: The churches in Zone M-11, Orinda Community Church, and the First Church of Christ, were assessed $317.96 and $158.98, respectively, reflecting Council direction upon formation of the District. The parcel owned by Friends of the Library was not assessed as it is expected to revert to public ownership.
The public-school site on Altarinda Road, formerly leased to J.F.K. University, a private entity, made an annual contribution of $1,291.00 for special benefits received from District improvements. This contribution was the result of an agreement between the City, the School District and J.F.K.U. that was reached upon formation of the District in 1986. J.F.K.U. has relocated and the property has reverted to public use. Therefore, this parcel no longer contributes to the District.
In Fiscal Year 1993/94 the number of assessed units for parcels numbered 268-011-001 and 268-013-004 were reduced from 0.890 and 0.990 by 0.329 and 0.365, respectively, due to the absence of street lighting and sweeping on Bates Blvd. In Fiscal Year 2002/03, the assessed number of units for the above parcels was adjusted to include street sweeping services. The adjusted assessed units are APN 268-011-001: 0.561 to 0.643 and APN 268-013-004: 0.625 to 0.716.
6.5 Method of Apportionment
The improvements to be serviced and maintained by the District have been constructed for the benefit of the properties within the District and are of special benefit to the various parcels of land within the zone boundaries. The total estimated cost of the improvements has been divided among parcels of land within F.2.a

the zones of the District in proportion to the estimated benefits to be received by the parcels from the improvements.
The method used by the engineer to apportion the cost among the benefiting properties follows:
1) Three zones of service have been identified on the assessment diagram. The boundaries of Zones M-9 and L-42 are identical to the boundaries of former County Service Areas M-9 and L-42. The boundary of Zone M-11 includes the parcels included in the former County Service Area M-11, plus four parcels that were annexed on May 23, 1988, as “Annexation 1988-1”. 2) The estimated operating cost within each zone of service was calculated. The total estimated incidental expense for the fiscal year was then determined for each zone.
6.5.1 ZONES L-42 AND M-9
The assessment rates in Zones L-42 and M-9 were calculated by dividing the total cost of the improvements in the zone by the total number of units within the zone. Typical single family detached residential assessments are indicated in the following table:
ZONE 2021/22 2022/23 2023/24
L-42 $68.28 $71.82 $75.63
M-9 $71.87 $75.60 $79.61
Resolution 38-99 adopted July 20, 1999, authorizes the City Council to annually adjust assessment rates in Zones L-42 and M-9 by an amount not to exceed the increase in the change in the San Francisco Bay Area Consumer Price Index (CPI) from February of the prior year to February of the current year. The change in the CPI from February 2022 to February 2023 was 5.30%.
6.5.2 ZONE M-11
Area units for a parcel are calculated by multiplying the benefit factor times the number of acres indicated in the County Assessor’s records or as may be reasonably approximated from the maps on file with the Assessor. Area units for exceptional parcels are as follows:
OWNER APN AREA UNITS
Orinda Community Church 260-200-015 0.500
First Church of Christ 260-200-019 0.250
Bates Blvd 268-011-001 0.643
Bates Blvd 268-013-004 0.716

The basic area rate was calculated by dividing the net amount to be assessed in Zone M-11 by the total number of area units. The original basic area rate in Zone M-11 was calculated to be $635.94. The assessment for each parcel in M-11 was calculated by multiplying the assessed area units by $635.94.
The following table summarizes the assessment within Zone M-11 of improvement for Fiscal Year 2023/24.
Rates for Fiscal Year 2022/23 and Fiscal Year 2021/22 are also included for reference:
ZONE 2021/22 2022/23 2023/24
M-11 $635.94 $635.94 $635.94
6.6 Maximum Assessment
The following table includes, for reference, the CPI increases and maximum assessments for the prior five Fiscal Years, including Fiscal Year 2023/24:
FISCAL YEAR CPI INCREASE ZONE L-42 ZONE M-9 ZONE M-11 (1) 2019/2020 3.53% 65.32 68.76 635.94

2022/2023 5.19% 71.82 75.60 635.94
2023/2024 5.30% 75.63 79.61 635.94
(1) Zone M-11 does not have a CPI inflator due to majority protest in the 1999 assessment ballot proceeding.

8. PARCEL LISTING
The parcel listing of assessments is provided on the following pages. The description of each lot or parcel as part of the records of the County of Contra Costa Assessor are, by reference, part of this Report.
Assessor’s parcel identification, for each lot or parcel within the District, shall be based on the County Assessor’s secured roll data for the applicable year in which this Report is prepared and is incorporated herein by reference.
A listing of assessor’s parcels assessed within the District for Fiscal Year 2023/24, along with the assessment amounts, is on file in the office of the City Clerk and incorporated herein by reference. Based on County Assessor’s secured roll data, current assessor’s parcels, including corrected and/or new assessor’s parcels, will be submitted and/or resubmitted to the County Auditor/Controller. The annual assessment amount to be levied and collected for the resubmitted parcel(s) shall be determined in accordance with the method of apportionment and assessment rate approved in this Report. Therefore, if a single assessor’s parcel has a status change in development, other land use change, or subdivides into multiple assessor’s parcels, the assessment amounts applied to each of the new assessor’s parcels shall be recalculated and applied according to the approved method of apportionment and assessment rate rather than a proportionate share of the original assessment amount.

AGENDA TITLE: Contract Acceptance of the City Hall North Parking Lot Slope Stabilization Project No. 4108 with NBC Construction, Inc.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No.33-23 Acceptance of Work for the City Hall North Parking Lot Slope Stabilization Project No. 4108 with NBC Construction, Inc. and authorize the City Clerk to sign and file the Notice of Completion with the Contra Costa County Clerk-Recorder.
BACKGROUND:
On October 19, 2021, the City Council awarded a construction contract to NBC Construction, Inc. of San Francisco, California in the amount of $621,834 for performance of the City Hall North Parking Lot Slope Stabilization Project No. 4108 and authorized a 15% contingency fund for a total construction budget of $715,110. The Contractor entered into a construction contract with the City subsequent to review and approval by the City Attorney.
The project addresses slope instability that had resulted in distress to the equipment pad located at the northwest end of City Hall building’s north parking lot on Santa Maria Way. A geotechnical investigation was conducted, and it recommended stabilization and repair measures. The construction involved installing concrete stabilization piles along the slope and a concrete grade beam adjacent to the equipment pad. In addition, an existing retaining wall located adjacent to the City Hall building has also been reconstructed.
DISCUSSION:
Due to contract award during 2021 winter weather, the project had a delayed start and a Notice to Proceed was issued to the Contractor on February 14, 2022. The project encountered additional unforeseen delays during construction due to (i) County inspection process requiring additional days for inspection due to the complex nature of construction process involved in placing the 34 concrete piers and (ii) weather related delays in winter 2022. Due to the delays not directly being the result of the contractor’s performance of the work, no liquidated damages were assessed to the Contractor upon substantial completion of the project.
The project included one change order in the amount of $13,638. The project area consists of a steep embankment and permanent erosion control measures were installed for long term stability of the slope.

Packet Pg. 112
NEXT STEPS:

The 5% withheld retention will be paid to NBC Construction Inc. thirty-five (35) days after recordation of the Notice of Completion, provided that no stop notices are outstanding.

Agenda Item: F.4
Date: May 9, 2023
Department: Parks and Recreation
AGENDA TITLE: New 3-year lease agreement with the Orinda Association for space at the Orinda Library
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the City Manager to execute on behalf of the City a new 3-year lease agreement with the Orinda Association.
BACKGROUND:
In September 2020, the City of Orinda entered into a lease agreement with the Orinda Association. The leased space includes approximately 359 square feet plus 98 square feet of storage. The monthly rent was established as a flat monthly net payment of $593.00, which included a rent reduction for providing services (credit of $375 per month). The current lease expires on June 30, 2023, and Staff have been in discussions with representatives of the Orinda Association regarding the renewal.
DISCUSSION:
The Orinda Association (OA) has been a responsible tenant that provides valuable services to the community and the City would like to enter into a new lease agreement for use of an office space in the Orinda Library, with an effective date of July 1, 2023, at a monthly net payment of $623, with no provision for the rate to increase over the term of the lease. The proposed term will expire on June 30, 2026.
Attachment A is a red-lined version of the agreement with the language changes. The new lease agreement sets the monthly market rate at $1074 per month, which is then discounted to a net payment of $623.00 per month. Under both the current and proposed leases, in lieu of payment for a portion of the total rent, Orinda Association agrees to operate certain volunteer services. The value assigned to the volunteer services is $451 per month. The Orinda Association operates a Volunteer Center and recruits volunteers through a variety of methods. In addition, the Orinda Association will provide annual accounting of its operation to the City Council around April 1 of each year (due to extremely busy times coming out of the pandemic, this year’s report is delayed until June).
The Orinda Association is requesting some modest changes to the lease language, including a request to remove reference to creating and maintaining a community calendar of volunteer activities noted in the list of the services that the OA provides as part of the lease (Paragraph 4(a)(i). The OA indicates this service has steadily dwindled over the years and, of course, virtually stopped completely with Covid. They state their requests for feedback from the various groups are rarely, if ever, granted. The OA intends to continue the practice of actively seeking volunteers via a number of websites F.4
Packet Pg. 116
and social media outlets. In all, the OA feels it is doing much more in terms of volunteer recruitment than ever before, but are using other strategies to connect with people.
Other aspects of the previous lease agreement remain unmodified.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Net rent payments to the City for the three year lease period beginning July 1, 2020 will total approximately $22,428.

10. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.
Tenant shall not either voluntarily, or by operation of law, assign, transfer, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or encumber this Lease or any interest in it, and shall not sublet any part of the Premises, or any appurtenant right or privilege, or allow any other person (the employees, agents, servants and invitees of Tenant excepted) to occupy or use the Premises, except that Tenant may permit a non-profit entity that provides a service to Orinda to share the Premises from time to time on such terms and conditions as Tenant and the entity may mutually adopt.

Tenant waives any claim for damages or for any injury or inconvenience to or interference with Tenant’s business, any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises, and any other loss occasioned as a result of Landlord actions and omissions under this paragraph. Landlord at any and all times shall have the right to use any and all means which Landlord may deem proper to open Tenant’s doors in an emergency in order to obtain entry to the Premises, without liability to Tenant except for any failure to exercise due care for Tenant’s property. Any entry to the Premises obtained by Landlord by any of these means, or otherwise, shall not under any circumstances be construed or deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or an eviction of Tenant from the Premises or any portion. Additionally, Tenant acknowledges that Landlord or any person authorized by Landlord has access to the pump room (112) at any time.

(b) In the event the Premises are damaged to any extent as a result of any cause other than the perils covered by fire and extended coverage insurance, Landlord shall have the option: (1) to repair, reconstruct or restore the Premises, in which event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect but the Minimum Rent shall be proportionately reduced as provided in this Section during the period of such repair, reconstruction or restoration; or (2) to give notice to Tenant at any time within sixty (60) days after such damage, terminating this Lease as of the date specified in such notice, which date shall be no more than thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice.

25. SIGNS.
It is understood that Tenant may place signs, easels, newspaper racks, or similar signage immediately outside the doors to the premises, but only during the hours that the Orinda Association office is open, and will be placed inside during the closed hours (signs may remain outside during office lunch hour periods) as long as they do not impede public/ADA access and do not violate the City’s lease agreement with the Friends of the Library. It is understood that Tenant may place vinyl banners signs up in the Library Plaza area during the Furth of July celebration and for a reasonable time prior (not to exceed 15 days), given the City is a co-sponsor of the event and has provided written approval. In no case shall Tenant affix any sign to the roof.
26. DISPLAYS.
Tenant may not store or sell merchandise outside the defined exterior walls and permanent doorways of the Premises. A modest display of promotional items may be allowed immediately adjacent to the entrance as long as it is not unsightly, does not impede public/ADA access, and does not violate the City’s lease agreement with the Friends of the Library. The display will also be subject to approval by the City Manager or their designee. Tenant further agrees not to install or use any exterior lighting, sound speakers or any audio electronic equipment which may be heard or seen outside the Premises.
27. HOURS OF BUSINESS.
An important purpose of this lease is to use the Premises to contribute to an active community vitality in the Heart of Orinda area. Visible activity and traffic to and from the Premises is therefore desirable to the City. For that reason, and subject to the provisions of Section 22, Tenant shall continuously during the entire Lease Term conduct and carry on Tenant’s business in the Premises and shall keep the Premises open for business and cause Tenant’s business to be conducted at the Premises as specified in Section 4.
28. GENERAL PROVISIONS.
(a) Attachments. All attachments are incorporated into this document as though set forth completely in it.
(b) Waiver. The waiver by Landlord of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such term, covenant or condition or any subsequent breach of the same or any other term, covenant or condition of this Lease. The subsequent acceptance of rent by Landlord shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding default by Tenant of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease, other than the failure of Tenant to pay the particular rental so accepted, regardless of Landlord’s knowledge of such preceding default at the time of acceptance of such rent.
(c) Joint Obligation. If there is more than one Tenant, the obligations of this Lease shall be joint and several.
(d) Marginal Headings. The marginal headings and section titles to the sections of this Lease are not a part of this Lease and shall have no effect upon the construction or interpretation of any part. (e) Time. Time is of the essence of this Lease and each and all of its provisions in which performance is a factor.

(f) Successors and Assigns. The covenants and conditions of this lease, subject to the provisions as to assignment, apply to and bind the heirs, successors, executors, administrators and alleged assigns of the parties.
(g) Recordation. Neither Landlord nor Tenant shall record this Lease, but a short form memorandum may be recorded at the request of, or with the permission of, Landlord. (h) Quiet Possession. Upon Tenant’s paying the rent and observing and performing all of the covenants, conditions and provisions on Tenant’s part to be observed and performed, Tenant shall have quiet possession of the Premises for the entire Lease Term, subject to all the provisions of this Lease.
(i) Late Charges. Tenant acknowledges that late payment by Tenant to Landlord of rent or other sums due will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to, processing and accounting charges, and late charges which may be imposed upon Landlord by terms of any mortgage or trust deed covering the Premises, and attorneys’ fees and costs.
Accordingly, if any installment of rent or any sum due from Tenant shall not be received by Landlord’s designee within ten (10) days after written notice that the amount is past due, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to the maximum amount permitted by law (and in the absence of any governing law, ten percent (10%) of such overdue amount), plus any attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord by reason of Tenant’s failure to pay rent and/or other charges when due. The parties agree that such late charges represent a fair and reasonable estimate of the cost that Landlord will incur by reason of the late payment by Tenant. Acceptance of such late charges by Landlord shall in no event constitute a waiver of Tenant’s default with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies in this Lease.
(j) Prior Agreements. This Lease contains all of the agreements of the parties with respect to any matter covered or mentioned in this Lease, and no prior agreements or understanding pertaining to any such matters shall be effective for any purpose. No provision of this Lease may be amended or added to except by an agreement in writing signed by the parties or their respective successors in interest. This Lease shall not be effective or binding on any party until fully executed by both parties.
(k) Inability to Perform. This Lease and the obligations of Tenant shall not be affected or impaired because Landlord is unable to fulfill any of its obligations or is delayed in doing so, if such inability or delay is caused by reason of strike, labor troubles, acts of God, or any other cause beyond the reasonable control of Landlord.
(l) Partial Invalidity. Any provision of this Lease which shall prove to be invalid, void, or illegal shall in no way affect, impair or invalidate any other provision and such other provision shall remain in full force and effect.
(m) Cumulative Remedies. No remedy or election in this Lease shall be deemed exclusive but shall, whenever possible, be cumulative with all other remedies at law or in equity. (n) Choice of Law. This Lease shall be governed by the laws of the State of California.

In the event of any sale of the Premises by Landlord, Landlord shall be and is entirely freed and relieved of all liability under any and all of its covenants and obligations contained in or derived from this Lease arising out of any act, occurrence or omission occurring after the consummation of such sale; and the purchaser, at such sale or any subsequent sale of the Premises shall be deemed, without any further agreement between the parties or their successors in interest or between the parties and any such purchaser, to have assumed and agreed to carry out any and all of the covenants and obligations of Landlord under this Lease.

In the event any proceedings are brought for foreclosure, or in the event of the exercise of the power of sale under any mortgage or deed of trust made by Landlord covering the Premises, Tenant shall become the tenant of the purchaser upon any such foreclosure or sale and recognize such purchaser as Landlord under this Lease. Regardless of the provisions of this section 28(q), so long as Tenant is not in default, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect for the full term. (r) Notices. Wherever this Lease requires or permits notice or demand to be given by either party to the other, such notice or demand shall be in writing and given or served, either personally or in writing forwarded by certified mail, return receipt requested, addressed to the parties at the addresses specified in Sections 3(c) and (g). Either party may change such address by written notice to the other.
(s) Tenant’s Statement (Estoppel Certificate). Tenant shall at any time and from time to time, upon not less than three days prior written notice from Landlord, execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a statement in writing (a) certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if modified, stating the nature of such modification and certifying that this Lease as so modified is in full force and effect), and the date to which the rental and other charges are paid in advance, if any, and (b) acknowledging that there are not, to Tenant’s knowledge, any uncured defaults on the part of Landlord, or specifying such defaults if any are claimed, and (c) setting forth the date of commencement of rents and expiration of the Lease Term. Any such statement may be relied upon by the prospective purchaser or encumbrance of all or any portion of the real property of which the Premises are a part.

Agenda Item: F.5
Date: May 9, 2023
Department: Parks and Recreation
AGENDA TITLE: New 3-year lease agreement with the Orinda Historical Society for space at the Orinda Library
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the City Manager to execute on behalf of the City a new 3-year lease agreement with the Orinda Historical Society.
BACKGROUND:
In June 2020, the City of Orinda entered into a lease agreement with the Orinda Historical Society. The monthly rent for approximately 593 square feet was a flat rate of $75.00 per month without any provision for an adjustment. The current lease expires on June 30, 2023.
DISCUSSION:
The Orinda Historical Society (OHS) has been a responsible tenant and the City would like to enter into a new lease agreement for use of an office space in the Orinda Library, with an effective date of July 1, 2023. The proposed rate is $80 per month, a slight increase over the current $75 per month. The lease term will expire on June 30, 2026.
The OHS is recommending a slight adjustment in their hours. A redlined copy of the proposed lease is attached. All other aspects of the previous lease agreement remain unmodified.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Rent payments will total approximately $2,880 for the three-year lease period.

Such insurance shall be in the amount of not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence. The limit of any such insurance shall not, however, limit the liability of Tenant under this Lease. Tenant may provide this insurance under a blanket policy, provided that this insurance shall have a Landlord’s protective liability endorsement attached.

(b) The insurance policy shall name Landlord, its officers, employees and volunteers as additional insureds.
(c) No policy shall be cancelable or subject to reduction of coverage. (d) All such policies shall be written as primary policies not contributing with and not in excess of coverage which Landlord may carry.

furniture, fixtures and any other personal property located in the Premises. In the event any or all of Tenant’s leasehold improvements, equipment, furniture, fixtures and other personal property shall be assessed and taxed with the real property, Tenant shall pay to Landlord its share of such taxes within ten (10) days after delivery to Tenant by Landlord of a statement in writing setting forth the amount of such taxes applicable to Tenant’s property.

Tenant waives any claim for damages or for any injury or inconvenience to or interference with Tenant’s business, any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises, and any other loss occasioned as a result of Landlord actions and omissions under this paragraph. Landlord at any and all times shall have the right to use any and all means which Landlord may deem proper to open Tenant’s doors in an emergency in order to obtain entry to the Premises, without liability to Tenant except for any failure to exercise due care for Tenant’s property. Any entry to the Premises obtained by Landlord by any of these means, or otherwise, shall not under any circumstances be construed or deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or an eviction of Tenant from the Premises or any portion.

Unpaid installments of payments due or other sums shall bear interest from the date due at the maximum legal rate; or
(b) Maintain Tenant’s right to possession, in which case this Lease shall continue in effect whether or not Tenant shall have abandoned the Premises. In such event Landlord shall be entitled to enforce all of Landlord’s rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover any charges and Expenses as may become due; or
(c) Pursue any other remedy or combination of remedies now or later available to Landlord under the laws of the state of California.
F.5.a

21. DEFAULT BY LANDLORD.
Landlord shall not be in default unless Landlord fails to perform obligations required of Landlord within a reasonable time, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after written notice by Tenant to Landlord and to the holder of any first mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises whose name and address shall have been furnished previously to Tenant in writing, specifying how Landlord has failed to perform such obligation. If the nature of Landlord’s obligation is such that more than thirty (30) days are required for performance then Landlord shall not be in default if Landlord commences performance within such thirty (30) day period and diligently prosecutes the same to completion. In no event shall Tenant have the right to terminate this Lease as a result of Landlord’s default and Tenant’s remedies shall be limited to damages or an injunction.

If the damage is due to the fault or neglect of Tenant or its employees, there shall be no abatement of payments due. (b) In the event the Premises are damaged to any extent as a result of any cause other than the perils covered by fire and extended coverage insurance, Landlord shall have the option: (1) to repair, reconstruct or restore the Premises, in which event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect but the Minimum Rent if any shall be proportionately reduced as provided in this Section during the period of such repair, reconstruction or restoration; or (2) to give notice to Tenant at any time within sixty (60) days after such damage, terminating this Lease as of the date specified in such notice, which date shall be no more than thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice.

An important purpose of this lease is to use the Premises to contribute to an active community vitality in the Heart of Orinda area.

Landlord shall have the right to require hours of operation which are more than those stated above. If Landlord and Tenant are not able to agree on required hours of operation, the Landlord shall have the right to terminate the lease.
28. GENERAL PROVISIONS.
(a) Attachments. All attachments are incorporated into this document as though set forth completely in it.
(b) Waiver. The waiver by Landlord of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such term, covenant or condition or any subsequent breach of the same or any other term, covenant or condition of this Lease. The subsequent acceptance of payments due by Landlord shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding default by Tenant of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease, other than the failure of Tenant to pay the particular rental so accepted, regardless of Landlord’s knowledge of such preceding default at the time of acceptance of such payments due.
(c) Joint Obligation. If there is more than one Tenant, the obligations of this Lease shall be joint and several.
(d) Marginal Headings. The marginal headings and section titles to the sections of this Lease are not a part of this Lease and shall have no effect upon the construction or interpretation of any part. (e) Time. Time is of the essence of this Lease and each and all of its provisions in which performance is a factor.
(f) Successors and Assigns. The covenants and conditions of this lease, subject to the provisions as to assignment, apply to and bind the heirs, successors, executors, administrators and alleged assigns of the parties.
F.5.a
Packet Pg. 144 Attachment: Redline Comparison Proposed Orinda Historical Society Lease to Previous Lease (3104 : Lease agreement with the Orinda -11-
(g) Recordation. Neither Landlord nor Tenant shall record this Lease, but a short form memorandum may be recorded at the request of, or with the permission of, Landlord. (h) Quiet Possession. Upon Tenant’s paying the payments due and observing and performing all of the covenants, conditions and provisions on Tenant’s part to be observed and performed, Tenant shall have quiet possession of the Premises for the entire Lease Term, subject to all the provisions of this Lease.
(i) Late Charges. Tenant acknowledges that late payment by Tenant to Landlord of payments due or other sums due will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to, processing and accounting charges, and late charges which may be imposed upon Landlord by terms of any mortgage or trust deed covering the Premises, and attorneys’ fees and costs.
Accordingly, if any installment of payments due or any sum due from Tenant shall not be received by Landlord’s designee within ten (10) days after written notice that the amount is past due, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to the maximum amount permitted by law (and in the absence of any governing law, ten percent (10%) of such overdue amount), plus any attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord by reason of Tenant’s failure to pay payments due and/or other charges when due. The parties agree that such late charges represent a fair and reasonable estimate of the cost that Landlord will incur by reason of the late payment by Tenant.
Acceptance of such late charges by Landlord shall in no event constitute a waiver of Tenant’s default with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies in this Lease.
(j) Prior Agreements. This Lease contains all of the agreements of the parties with respect to any matter covered or mentioned in this Lease, and no prior agreements or understanding pertaining to any such matters shall be effective for any purpose. No provision of this Lease may be amended or added to except by an agreement in writing signed by the parties or their respective successors in interest. This Lease shall not be effective or binding on any party until fully executed by both parties.
(k) Inability to Perform. This Lease and the obligations of Tenant shall not be affected or impaired because Landlord is unable to fulfill any of its obligations or is delayed in doing so, if such inability or delay is caused by reason of strike, labor troubles, acts of God, or any other cause beyond the reasonable control of Landlord.
(l) Partial Invalidity. Any provision of this Lease which shall prove to be invalid, void, or illegal shall in no way affect, impair or invalidate any other provision and such other provision shall remain in full force and effect.
(m) Cumulative Remedies. No remedy or election in this Lease shall be deemed exclusive but shall, whenever possible, be cumulative with all other remedies at law or in equity. (n) Choice of Law. This Lease shall be governed by the laws of the State of California. (o) Attorneys’ Fees. In the event of any action or proceeding brought by either party against the other under this Lease the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its expenses and costs, including its attorneys’ fees and expert witness fees in such action or proceeding, including costs of appeal, if any, in such amount as the court may adjudge reasonable.

In the event any proceedings are brought for foreclosure, or in the event of the exercise of the power of sale under any mortgage or deed of trust made by Landlord covering the Premises, Tenant shall become the tenant of the purchaser upon any such foreclosure or sale and recognize such purchaser as Landlord under this Lease. Regardless of the provisions of this section 28(q), so long as Tenant is not in default, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect for the full term. (r) Notices. Wherever this Lease requires or permits notice or demand to be given by either party to the other, such notice or demand shall be in writing and given or served, either personally or in writing forwarded by certified mail, return receipt requested, addressed to the parties at the addresses specified in Sections 3(c) and (g). Either party may change such address by written notice to the other.
(s) Tenant’s Statement (Estoppel Certificate). Tenant shall at any time and from time to time, upon not less than three days prior written notice from Landlord, execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a statement in writing (a) certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if modified, stating the nature of such modification and certifying that this Lease as so modified is in full force and effect), and the date to which the payment and other charges are paid in advance, if any, and (b) acknowledging that there are not, to Tenant’s knowledge, any uncured defaults on the part of Landlord, or specifying such defaults if any are claimed, and (c) setting forth the date of commencement of payments due and expiration of the Lease Term.

Staff Report
Agenda Item: F.6
Date: May 9, 2023
Department: Parks and Recreation
AGENDA TITLE: New Retail Lease Agreement with So Jin Kim (dba Caffe Teatro) for space at the Orinda Library
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the City Manager to execute on behalf of the City a new 3-year Retail Lease agreement with So Jin Kim (dba Caffe Teatro) for space at the Orinda Library.
BACKGROUND:
Effective November 1, 2017, the City of Orinda entered into a retail lease agreement with So Jin Kim dba Caffe Teatro. The City of Orinda has had a retail lease agreement with So Jin Kim since 2001. The space provided is approximately 635 square foot retail space, known as unit 113, at the Orinda Library.
The initial term of the 2017 lease expired on June 30, 2020, and the tenant exercised the option to renew the lease for an additional three-year period, to June 30, 2023. The rate has adjusted on July 1st of each year based on a formula that uses the annual change in the CPI plus 0.5%. Under the terms of the agreement, there is a minimum annual increase of 2% and a maximum increase of 5%. The rental rate effective July 1, 2022 was $3,842.93 per month.
DISCUSSION:
The operation of Caffe Teatro has been a good use of the space and it serves the community well and the City is pleased with the tenant’s operation of the Library café and would like to enter into a new retail lease agreement. As provided in the previous leases, the rent has increased every year. As such, the current monthly rent exceeds the going market rate. Therefore, the initial 3-year term of the new lease, with an effective date of July 1, 2023, will not include a rent increase. The term will expire on June 30, 2026.
This new lease with So Jin Kim again allows, at the Tenants option, the ability to renew the lease for a three-year term, expiring June 30, 2029. Should the tenant choose to exercise the option to renew the lease for an additional three-year period, the rate will return to being adjusted on July 1st of each year based on a formula that uses the annual change in the CPI plus 0.5%, and in which there is a minimum annual increase of 2% and a maximum increase of 5%.
Other aspects of the previous lease agreement remain basically unmodified.
Attachment A is the Redline Comparison Proposed Caffe Teatro Retail Lease to Previous Lease.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The marginal headings and section titles to the sections of this Lease are not a part of this Lease and shall have no effect upon the construction or interpretation of any part. (e) Time. Time is of the essence of this Lease and each and all of its provisions in which performance is a factor.
F.6.a
Packet Pg. 162 Attachment: Redline Comparison Proposed Caffe Teatro Retail Lease to Previous Lease (3107 : New Lease Agreement with So Jin Kim (dba -13-
(f) Successors and Assigns. The covenants and conditions of this lease, subject to the provisions as to assignment, apply to and bind the heirs, successors, executors, administrators and assigns of the parties.
(g) Recordation. Neither Landlord nor Tenant shall record this Lease, but a short form memorandum may be recorded at the request of, or with the permission of, Landlord. (h) Quiet Possession. Upon Tenant’s paying the rent and observing and performing all of the covenants, conditions and provisions on Tenant’s part to be observed and performed, Tenant shall have quiet possession of the Premises for the entire Lease Term, subject to all the provisions of this Lease.
(i) Late Charges. Tenant acknowledges that late payment by Tenant to Landlord of rent or other sums due will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to, processing and accounting charges, and late charges which may be imposed upon Landlord by terms of any mortgage or trust deed covering the Premises, and attorneys’ fees and costs.
Accordingly, if any installment of rent or any sum due from Tenant shall not be received by Landlord’s designee within ten (10) days after written notice that the amount is past due, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to the maximum amount permitted by law (and in the absence of any governing law, ten percent (10%) of such overdue amount), plus any attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord by reason of Tenant’s failure to pay rent and/or other charges when due. The parties agree that such late charges represent a fair and reasonable estimate of the cost that Landlord will incur by reason of the late payment by Tenant. Acceptance of such late charges by Landlord shall in no event constitute a waiver of Tenant’s default with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies in this Lease.
(j) Prior Agreements. This Lease contains all of the agreements of the parties with respect to any matter covered or mentioned in this Lease, and no prior agreements or understanding pertaining to any such matters shall be effective for any purpose. No provision of this Lease may be amended or added to except by an agreement in writing signed by the parties or their respective successors in interest. This Lease shall not be effective or binding on any party until fully executed by both parties.
(k) Inability to Perform. This Lease and the obligations of Tenant shall not be affected or impaired because Landlord is unable to fulfill any of its obligations or is delayed in doing so, if such inability or delay is caused by reason of strike, labor troubles, acts of God, or any other cause beyond the reasonable control of Landlord.
(l) Partial Invalidity. Any provision of this Lease which shall prove to be invalid, void, or illegal shall in no way affect, impair or invalidate any other provision and such other provision shall remain in full force and effect.
(m) Cumulative Remedies. No remedy or election in this Lease shall be deemed exclusive but shall, whenever possible, be cumulative with all other remedies at law or in equity. (n) Choice of Law. This Lease shall be governed by the laws of the State of California.
F.6.a
Packet Pg. 163 Attachment: Redline Comparison Proposed Caffe Teatro Retail Lease to Previous Lease (3107 : New Lease Agreement with So Jin Kim (dba -14-
(o) Attorneys’ Fees. In the event of any action or proceeding brought by either party against the other under this Lease the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its expenses and costs, including its attorneys’ fees and expert witness fees in such action or proceeding, including costs of appeal, if any, in such amount as the court may adjudge reasonable. (p) Sale of Premises by Landlord. In the event of any sale of the Premises by Landlord, Landlord shall be and is entirely freed and relieved of all liability under any and all of its covenants and obligations contained in or derived from this Lease arising out of any act, occurrence or omission occurring after the consummation of such sale; and the purchaser, at such sale or any subsequent sale of the Premises shall be deemed, without any further agreement between the parties or their successors in interest or between the parties and any such purchaser, to have assumed and agreed to carry out any and all of the covenants and obligations of Landlord under this Lease. (q) Subordination; Attornment. Upon request of Landlord, Tenant will in writing subordinate its rights under this lease to the lien of any mortgage or deed of trust, to any bank, insurance company or other lending institution, now or later in force against the Premises, and to all advances made or later to be made on the security for such advances. In the event any proceedings are brought for foreclosure, or in the event of the exercise of the power of sale under any mortgage or deed of trust made by Landlord covering the Premises, Tenant shall become the tenant of the purchaser upon any such foreclosure or sale and recognize such purchaser as Landlord under this Lease. Regardless of the provisions of this section 33(q), so long as Tenant is not in default, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect for the full term. (r) Notices. Wherever this Lease requires or permits notice or demand to be given by either party to the other, such notice or demand shall be in writing and given or served, either personally or in writing forwarded by certified mail, return receipt requested, addressed to the parties at the addresses specified in Sections 3(e) and (m). Either party may change such address by written notice to the other.
(s) Tenant’s Statement (Estoppel Certificate). Tenant shall at any time and from time to time, upon not less than three days prior written notice from Landlord, execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a statement in writing (a) certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if modified, stating the nature of such modification and certifying that this Lease as so modified is in full force and effect), and the date to which the rental and other charges are paid in advance, if any, and (b) acknowledging that there are not, to Tenant’s knowledge, any uncured defaults on the part of Landlord, or specifying such defaults if any are claimed, and (c) setting forth the date of commencement of rents and expiration of the Lease Term. Any such statement may be relied upon by the prospective purchaser or encumbrance of all or any portion of the real property of which the Premises are a part.
32. COMPLIANCE.
The parties agree to comply with all applicable federal, state and local laws, regulations, codes, ordinances and administrative orders having jurisdiction over the parties, property or the subject matter of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the 1964 Civil Rights Act and all amendments, the Foreign Investment In Real Property Tax Act, the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act, and The Americans With Disabilities Act.

AGENDA TITLE: Partial Release of Retention to Bay Cities Paving & Grading, Inc. for the 2022 Annual Pavement Rehabilitation Project (Project No.4166 & Project No. 4165) and Moraga Way Pedestrian Pathway Project (Project No. 4168) and Approve Project Budget Changes/Corrections.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the release of $140,000 in retention for the subject Bay Cities Paving and Grading Inc. Contract, and approve Budget Change Form #011-23 for Project No.4166.
BACKGROUND: On July 19, 2022, City Council awarded a contract to Bay Cities Paving and Grading Inc. for the subject projects, for the bid amount of $3,924,314.27.
Per the specification for this project, the City retained 5 percent of the estimated value of the work done. The majority of the work was completed by December 2022, but subsequent severe weather delayed completion of all of the work. Bay Cities intends to complete the work by June 2023.
DISCUSSION:
As of February 16, 2023, the total retention amount is $170,030.77. Per our contract, Bay Cities Paving and Grading can request release of retention at any time after 50 percent of the work is completed, and they recently made that request. The majority of the work was completed by December 2022, but subsequent severe weather delayed completion of all of the work. Bay Cities intends to complete the work by June 2023.
Bay Cities has also provided the required approval of their Surety (Attachment A) to reduce the retention to 5% of the total retention amount. Staff recommends releasing $140,000, which will allow sufficient remaining retention to account for certain corrective work and/or credits for reduced asphalt costs (per specified oil price index fluctuation).
The final remaining retention, after completion of all of the work, will be released after acceptance of the contract by the City Council.
It was recently determined that due to a clerical/typo error in entering and/or revising certain data in Planit CIP software in June 2022 for the CIP Update (used for the Budget), project #4166 expenses from Funds #105 (Measure L Sales Tax), Fund #200 (Gas Tax) and Fund #335 (Road Maintenance Fund) were incorrectly budgeted for fiscal year 2023-24 rather than the current fiscal year 2022-23. It should be noted that in July 2022 that data was corrected in Planit, when it was utilized to determine appropriation needs in order to award the subject Bay Cities contract. In order to correct this, Budget Change Form #011-23 (Attachment B) is necessary to move the estimated expenditures from fiscal year 2023-24 and appropriate them in the current fiscal year. Since fiscal year 2023-24 is outside the current Biennial Budget period (FY F.7
Packet Pg. 167
2021-22 and FY 2022-23), this change is considered an appropriation and City Council approval is needed.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approving this item will increase budgeted expenditures in Fund #105 (Measure L Sales Tax), Fund #200 (Gas Tax), Fund #335 (Road Maintenance Fund) in fiscal year 2022- 23 by $420,144, $600,000, and $284,988 respectively. Each of these funds has adequate resources available to cover these expenditures in the current fiscal year.
NEXT STEPS: Upon approval of this partial retention release by City Council, staff will process the payment of $140,000.00. Bay Cities will resume work upon stable weather conditions.

AGENDA TITLE: Roads and Storm Drain Needs Update
RECOMMENDATION:
Receive PowerPoint presentation from Staff.
BACKGROUND:
The City has invested bond proceeds and supplemental sales tax funding into its roads and storm drains, achieving significant improvements in the PCI (pavement condition index). We are now in a maintenance phase where it is important to carefully program such pavement maintenance work in an effective and efficient manner to optimize limited available funding.
DISCUSSION:
The Metropolitan Transportation Commission, earlier this year, announced Pavement Condition Indexes (PCI) for all cities in the Bay Area which showed that Orinda is tied for second for the best PCI in the Bay Area at 84. This demonstrates the “promises made, promises kept” success of Measure L, the bond issues, and now Measure R which took the City’s PCI from the low 40’s when this effort was first launched.
With the pending completion of the 2022 Paving Project, the City will have addressed all public roads with a few exceptions (all which have an explanation or rationale). So roads in Orinda are now at a stabilized base, where regular and normal maintenance should extend their life for a considerable period.
As such it is now timely to take a look at the cost to maintain the roads, factoring in new mandates like green infrastructure, and the higher costs we are seeing, and compare that to the anticipated revenues which will have each year to invest in streets.
The attached Staff presentation provides information on the following topics:
1. Overview of Pavement Management Program
2. Review of recent biennial PTAP report (pavement management technical assistance program)
3. Review of future funding needs for pavement management
4. Review of Storm Drain Repair Plan
This initial forward look at road maintenance needs and storm drainage will inform the upcoming bi-annual update of the City’s Capital Improvement Program and will also set the stage for longer term planning and evaluation of options.

NEXT STEPS:
The SSTOC had received a Road Update at their April meeting. Staff will provide additional information to the SSTOC at their May 10th meeting in a presentation entitled “Overview of Proposed Public Works Road and Drainage Project Funding by Measure R for Annual CIP Update.” At the June 6th City Council meeting, Staff will present the Draft CIP Update for review.

Staff Report
Agenda Item: H.2
Date: May 9, 2023
Department: Administration
AGENDA TITLE: Inclusionary Housing Ordinance - Continued From May 2, 2023 RECOMMENDATION:
Receive Report regarding Inclusionary Housing Ordinances, Discuss Key Parameters, and Direct Staff to Prepare an Ordinance for Review and Consideration.
BACKGROUND: On January 31, 2023, the City Council approved an updated Housing Element for the City’s General Plan. Since that time, the State Department of Housing and Community Development has deemed the City’s Housing Element to be in substantial compliance with State law and our attention has turned to implementation activities. As discussed during the consideration of the Housing Element, one of the first action items which the City Manager and staff committed to bring back for consideration is a possible inclusionary housing ordinance. This report is the first step in that process.
An Action Item on page 222 of the adopted Housing Element regarding an inclusionary ordinance provides:
“Action 3.G: Inclusionary Housing Ordinance. The City will research an inclusionary housing ordinance. This ordinance will identify acceptable methods to provide affordable housing such as: a) construction of housing on- site, b) construction of housing off-site, c) dedication of land for housing, and d) payment of an in-lieu fee. Development of this ordinance requires an analysis of the following variables:
● Limiting the application of the ordinance to developments exceeding a certain size.
● Percentage of housing units required to be set aside as affordable. ● Design and building requirements.
● Timing of affordable unit construction.
● Determination of a fee in lieu of developing affordable units. ● Developer incentives, such as fee deferrals and waivers. ● Administration of affordability control.
Responsible Agency: Planning Department
Timeframe: Determine the appropriateness of an inclusionary ordinance within two years after adoption of the Housing Element. If determined appropriate, adopt an inclusionary ordinance within one year of making the determination.
Funding Source: General Fund
Quantified Objective: 145 lower income units in high opportunity areas to promote access to resources and mobility for target households.” H.2
Packet Pg. 211
DISCUSSION: Any consideration of an inclusionary ordinance in Orinda should reflect the goals in the recently approved Housing Element and diverse range of tools and programs to be put in place to encourage the development of housing, especially affordable housing including the higher densities to be implemented in parts of the community. It is anticipated that many market-rate developments will take advantage of the bonus density laws which provide for additional density and waivers/concessions in exchange for including affordable housing in new development. As such, the staff has approached the development of an inclusionary ordinance as mainly being the tool to ensure what would otherwise be 100% market projects also do their fair share and contribute towards the provision of affordable units.
Inclusionary housing ordinances have been utilized in many communities across the State for many years. They became more important after the elimination of Redevelopment Agencies in 2011-12 as redevelopment project areas had a mandate that 15% of all housing be affordable, plus 20% of any property tax increment received by a Redevelopment Agency was set aside for affordable housing. It should be noted that Orinda did not have a Redevelopment Agency.
Attached is publication of the Local Government Commission and others from 2018 entitled: Meeting California’s Housing Needs: Best Practices for Inclusionary Housing (Attachment A). While this is slightly dated, it does provide a good overview on inclusionary housing and the main approaches and considerations.
Another resource is the California Coalition for Rural Housing website on which inclusionary housing programs from many jurisdictions across the State are catalogued.

An additional resource is a publication on from the Western Center on Law and Poverty which is attached: Inclusionary Housing in California – The Legal Landscape (Attachment B). This publication explains some of the legal constraints regarding inclusionary housing and its evolution due to legislation and case law. As discussed in this publication, a few years after we have an inclusionary ordinance in place, the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) will require an economic H.2

study demonstrating that the ordinance is not an impediment to new housing construction. In addition, we should be mindful that the legal landscape can change, and a current example is a bill which has been introduced in the State Legislature this year. SB 423 would make, if passed, inclusionary ordinances unenforceable if their income limits don’t match those in SB 35, an existing piece of housing legislation.
Finally, two neighboring communities have local inclusionary ordinance. the Town of Moraga considered and adopted an inclusionary housing ordinance in December of 2022, a very recent local example. The staff report and final adopted ordinance is provided as an additional touchstone (Attachment C). Plus, in conjunction with their new inclusionary housing ordinance, the Town of Moraga has embarked on the establishment of an in-lieu fee for inclusionary units, or fractional units. That staff report and study may also be of interest (Attachment D). The Council may also consider the City of Lafayette’s inclusionary Ordinance which was originally adopted in 2016 and which has been amended since. A summary of the Lafayette Ordinance is excerpted from their Housing Element is provided as Attachment D and the text of the Ordinance is provided as Attachment E. These communities’ inclusionary ordinances can inform the Orinda City Council discussion of options.
Parameters for Consideration
As staff begins work on a draft inclusionary housing ordinance, it would be helpful to get some initial feedback from the City Council on a number of parameters.
1. Size of development to which the inclusionary housing ordinance would apply.
A high-level review of inclusionary ordinances indicates that 10 units or more is a often used threshold. The Moraga ordinance exempts projects of 5 units or less from the on-site requirement, though a fractional in-lieu fee is established. Given the densities contemplated on the opportunity sites in the Downtown and other areas, the 10-unit threshold is what staff would be proposing.
2. Percentage of units required to be set aside as affordable and at what target levels of affordability.
A 10% to 15% level of inclusionary seems to be most common. As an initial target, City staff suggest that 10% would be the desirable target level given we have numerous housing opportunity sites which are slated for affordable housing development. The City is looking to facilitate or encourage the development of housing affordable in three categories – Very Low, Low, and Moderate income.
Having projects producing inclusionary units at a mix of 50% Very Low/Low and 50% Moderate would be recommended. It is anticipated that some sites developed in conjunction with an affordable housing developer would be 100% affordable to the Very Low/Low categories.
3. Should the mix of on-site affordable units be proportionate to the unit mix for the market rate components?
H.2
Packet Pg. 213
While staff anticipates that the affordable units can vary in size and amenity levels from the market rate units, any on-site units should be proportionate to the overall mix of the market rate units. For example, if there are 80 market rates units in a mix of 10 studio, 20 one-bedroom and 10 two-bedroom, the affordable units should match that mix with 2 studios, 4 one-bedroom, and 2 two-bedroom units for a total of 8 units at a 10% requirement. Some flexibility may be desirable, so a factor like a 10% variation could be allowed or some other goal established or required.
4. Should an in-lieu fee be considered for projects below the on-site requirement minimum?
An in-lieu fee should be established to ensure all development is contributing to the production of affordable units. There are some broader policy questions such as should the in-lieu fee apply to projects under threshold requiring on-site production of housing like in Moraga where a fractional fee is levied or are their situations where a developer could “buy” their way out of on-site production by perhaps paying the in-lieu at a higher level, say 150% of the standard in-lieu fee.
This may on occasion also be desirable if the City is working to facilitate housing at the lower income levels with the fees collected being able to help assist in that effort.
5. What, if any, development incentives should be considered? As noted, while many developments are anticipated to utilize the State’s density bonus law for additional density in exchange for providing a level of affordability, they are also entitled under State law to additional concessions and waivers.
While we don’t expect that the City’s inclusionary housing ordinance would be applicable to the projects already taking advantage of the State’s density bonus law, should market rate projects subject to the inclusionary housing ordinance also be afforded some incentives to off-set the cost for providing the affordable units?
NEXT STEPS: Staff will utilize the initial feedback received as part of this agenda item to develop a draft inclusionary ordinance to present to the Planning Commission as the next step in the consideration process. If additional feedback is desirable prior to that step, staff could work with the City Council’s Downtown Planning & Housing Element Subcommittee to refine the proposed components.
FISCAL IMPACT: None because of this item. There will be costs both direct and staff time to develop an inclusionary housing ordinance, and after adoption to further implement and administer the program on an on-going basis.

nclusionary housing is used in hundreds of communities across the country tocreate units that are affordable to lower-income households in new market-rate residential developments. More than 170 cities and counties in California have used inclusionary-housing policies to help address affordable-housing needs while advancing equitable-development goals.
Inclusionary policies capture some of the value of rising real-estate prices to provide community benefits byusing local land-use controls to ensure that muchneeded affordable-housing units are produced along with market-rate units and that the limited supply of developable land is put to work in a way that serves households atall income levels.
Inclusionary housing – also referred to as “inclusionary zoning”– is a flexible tool that can be tailored to local circumstances. There is no one “model” inclusionary-housing policy, but rather a number of best practices to consider when adopting or amending an ordinance.
This factsheet explores the range of policy options to consider when designing a local inclusionary ordinance and highlights best practices that maximize community benefits and fulfill policy goals.
An inclusionary-housing ordinance is one part of an equitable-development strategy, and should not be viewed as the sole way to address affordable-housing needs. In most communities, building the needed amount of housing for lower-income families will still require public subsidies and must be integrated with other strategies.
Following a period of legal
uncertainty around inclusionary
ordinances, a 2015 Supreme
Court decision affirmed city
and county authority to impose
inclusionary requirements
based on local government’s
broad police powers.
And passage of Assembly Bill
1505 in 2017 reinstated the
authority to apply inclusionary
policies for rental housing.

These include:
✦ More choices for lower-income households about where to live. ✦ Reduced opposition to affordable housing by producing affordable units within communities as they develop, not after.
✦ Support for compact infill development, reduced sprawl and achievement of local Regional Housing Needs Assessment
(RHNA) targets for all income levels.
✦ Reduced vehicle miles traveled (VMT) and greenhouse gas emissions byproviding people at all income levels more opportunities to live closer to work and in transit-rich areas.
✦ Ensuring that the entire community benefits from a growing economy.
Public and private investments help create economic growth that raises property values. Inclusionary housing helps capture some of the value created by these investments to ensure that the benefits do not accrue solely to property owners and helps buffer against displacement pressures byensuring that lower-income residents can remain in the community. ✦ Reduced segregation and concentration of poverty.
Benefits of an Inclusionary Housing Ordinance
Keys to a Successful Ordinance
Adopting a detailed inclusionary ordinance with input from a wide range of community stakeholders is the best method for implementing effective and legally defensible inclusionary requirements.
The ordinance’s language should provide clarity and certainty for the development community, and be structured to realistically achieve its goals. It should be backed by data and research that establishes both the need for the policy and the feasibility of the requirement.
The key elements of a well-crafted inclusionary ordinance include:
1. State the need.
Local governments have broad discretion under the police powergranted by the state constitution to regulate the use of land within their borders, so long as the regulation is reasonably related to advancing the general welfare.
A local inclusionary ordinance, then, should start with a statement of findings related to the need for the policy to improve the community’s well-being.
Most California jurisdictions have a severe shortage of housing units affordable to low- and very low-income households.The need to address that shortage provides a strong basis for inclusionary zoning, as does the need to meet the jurisdiction’s share of the region’s ongoing housing need at the lower-income levels (which is nearly impossible to do with subsidy alone).
Jurisdictions also frequently point to the need to address past patterns of racial and economic segregation in their community,ensure the preservation and development of diverse neighborhoods, meet fair-housing mandates, and make the best use of a limited supply of developable land.
The ordinance should be directly tied to the findings establishing the need for the policy. For example, if the findings cite the shortage of low- and very low-income housing units in the community, then one of the policy’s goals should be to ensure that those units get produced. A well-crafted ordinance will start with findings that support the policy choices reflected in the design of the ordinance.
“Lower-income” households refers to those making 80% or less of area median income (AMI). The term encompasses households that are “low-income” (those making 50-80% of AMI) and “very low-income” (those making less than 50% of AMI).

2. Get the numbers right: how many, where,
when and for how long?
How many affordable units should be required
and to whom should they be affordable?
An inclusionary ordinance should clearly define how many affordable units must be included in a project and at which income levels. The vast majority of ordinances set the requirement as a percentage of the total number of units in the project, while a few communities use a square-footage metric.
LOW AND VERY-LOW: The requirement will typically be split between lowand very low-income households (for example, 15% of the total are affordable units, with 10% low and 5% very low). Some laws also include a target for extremely low-income households.
MODERATE: Some communities also require moderate-income units, but this should be based on a careful analysis of the market and its ability to serve moderate-income households. If the market is producing moderate-income units on its own, there would be no rationale for having a inclusionary requirement for moderate-income units.
Whatpercentage a community establishes will be dependent on its affordable housing needs, local market conditions, the financial incentives available to developers, and the mix of affordability levels required.
FIXED: Some communities require fixed percentages at each designated income level, whereas others may provide some flexibility (for example, allowing for a lower percentage of inclusionary units overall when the units are provided at a deeper affordability level).
FLEXIBLE: Some jurisdictions structure their inclusionary policies to involve a sliding scale, so that projects that include higher percentages of affordable units also qualify for more incentives, such as greater density increases.
While there may be reasons to build flexibility for the required number of affordable units into an ordinance,too much flexibility can undermine the creation of new housing at the income levels needed most and cannot be produced by the market alone.
Which projects should have to comply with
the inclusionary requirement?
While it may be tempting to carve out various exceptions to an inclusionary requirement, the best practice is to apply the requirement to all housingdevelopment projects throughout a community or the geographic area covered by the policy. This is the best way to ensure that the policy is In California, the requirements in most inclusionary policies adopted so far have fallen within the 10-20% range –
15% being the most common.
MEETING CALIFORNIA’S HOUSING NEEDS: BEST PRACTICES FOR INCLUSIONARY HOUSING 3 implemented equitably and serves the overall goal of ensuring that all neighborhoods – single-family and multi-family, lower-density and higherdensity – incorporate housing options at a range of income levels.
SMALL PROJECTS: Many jurisdictions choose to exempt small projects from complying with an inclusionary requirement. The rationale is often to ensure that smaller development projects are financially feasible. While a smallproject exemption may be well-intended, it can be difficult to reconcile an exemption with the ordinance’s overall goals and create potential legal issues.
It can also be a challenge to settle on a definition of “small”that doesn’t simply encourage projects that come in just under the threshold, thus frustrating the goal of ensuring that all new housing development contributes to meeting the community’s affordable-housing needs.
Rather exempting these projects altogether,a better practice is to provide small projects with the option to pay an in-lieu fee as an alternative tocompliance with on-site production requirements. This is particularly true in areas where a high proportion of development activity occurs on smaller projects.
Should inclusionary requirements be different for
for-sale projects and rental projects?
In most jurisdictions, the most defensible ordinance will be one that imposes an inclusionary requirement equally on rental and for-sale housing. Requirements that treat the two differently may have fairhousing implications and, much like exemptions for small projects, can be challenging to reconcile with the ordinance’s goals.
For example, an ordinance that requires the inclusion of low- and very lowincome units in rental developments, but only moderate-income units in for-sale developments, could run counter to the goal of ensuring that all neighborhoods have a mix of housing at all income levels in cities where rental and for-sale development generally happen in different neighborhoods.
Furthermore,depending on local demographics, such policies may lead to disparate impacts on certain protected classes,potentially violating legal requirements. In weighing whether to impose the same or different requirements on rental and for-sale housing, it’s crucial to consult with an attorney with expertise in fair-housing laws.
RENTAL/FOR-SALE MIX: One way to maximize the production of affordable units and increase flexibility is to allow developers of single-family projects the option of meeting the inclusionary requirement by including affordable multi-family rental units within the development rather than affordable for-sale, single-family homes.
However, this option should be crafted carefully to ensure consistency with the ordinance’s overall goals and fair-housing obligations. Rental units can generally be produced more cost-effectively than for-sale units, so this option should reflect that by requiring that a higher percentage of rental units be produced.
H.2.a
Packet Pg. 218 Attachment: Attachment A - Inclusionary Factsheet (3114 : Inclusionary Housing Ordinance Options) 4 MEETING CALIFORNIA’S HOUSING NEEDS: BEST PRACTICES FOR INCLUSIONARY HOUSING Under California law, if the inclusionary requirement is adopted through a program in the jurisdiction’s housing element, the program must provide developers with this option. However, nothing requires a jurisdiction to adopt an inclusionary requirement through its housing element, and this approach is not ideal.
Should inclusionary requirements be structured
differently in different neighborhoods?
Inclusionary requirements most typically apply jurisdiction-wide. While different neighborhoods within a city may have differing development markets, a well-designed policy already adjusts for those differences.
For example, in a neighborhood where the development market is especially hot and land costs are high, the value of an increase in allowable density is also much higher, making a higher inclusionary requirement feasible.
SPECIFIC PLANS: However, in large cities, it may make sense to consider areaspecific increases in an inclusionary requirement because some parts of town may be much hotter development markets than others. An effective way to accomplish this is through the adoption of a specific plan that lays out the land-use controls that apply within a designated geographic area.
TRANSIT AREAS: Some jurisdictions have also crafted specific inclusionary policies that apply to areas adjacent to transit stations, recognizing the wide body of research demonstrating how crucial it is to build affordability into transit-oriented development and the resulting benefits that increase transit ridership, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and strengthen community stability.
How long should inclusionary units remain
affordable?
Given the time and resources that go into developing housing, an inclusionary ordinance should aim to set the affordability term – how many years a unit must remain “affordable”– for the longest period of time that is feasible.
One important thing to consider in determining the affordability term is the cost of maintaining a unit’s affordability over time compared to the cost of having to provide a new affordable unit to replace it when the deed-restriction period ends. In most cases, the former will be far more cost-effective than the latter.
BUILDING WEALTH: One advantage of homeownership is the ability to build wealth through the ownership of an appreciable asset. Strict resale controls that require the home to be resold at an affordable price to another lowincome homeowner significantly restrict the wealth-building advantages of homeownership.On the other hand, the program should protect against the owner of a for-sale inclusionary home quickly reselling the home at a significant profit.
SHARING EQUITY: The most common way of balancing these interests is an equity-sharing policy in which any appreciation is split between the selling homeowner and the jurisdiction. The jurisdiction then uses its share to assist in future homeownership opportunities for low-income buyers.
Some policies have initial limits on resale (such as 10 years) that require the home to be resold only to a low-income buyer at an affordable price during that period.
Other ordinances have a sliding-scale, equity-sharing provision that states that no proceeds to a homeowner who sells during the initial years, but provides a greater share of the proceeds to the homeowner closer toward the end of the 45-year term.
Should the inclusionary requirement change
over time?
Housing markets are constantly changing, and it would be a challenge to amend an inclusionary requirement in response to every rise and dip in local conditions. However, building in a set review period can be useful for a number of reasons. Periodic review can help determine whether the percentage of units required remains appropriate for local conditions so that the community is not losing out on affordable units that could feasibly be achieved with a higher inclusionary requirement.
It can also help in assessing whether changes to income targeting are necessary. For example, if a community has steadily produced low-income units but not very low-income units, it may be necessary to increase the percentage of very low-income units required by the ordinance and adjust available incentives accordingly to account for the higher cost of providing these units. Every five years is a reasonable review period.
SYNC WITH HOUSING ELEMENT: Another option is to review the ordinance concurrent with the housing-element adoption process every eight years. (While most local jurisdictions in California must update their housing element every eight years, some rural jurisdictions remain on a five-year cycle.) For rental units, 55 years is a common affordability term required by many affordable-housing funding programs in California. An inclusionary ordinance should require at least as long a period, although it’s not uncommon for jurisdictions to require longer periods – or even to mandate that inclusionary rental units be deed restricted in perpetuity, as West Hollywood does.
The typical term with for-sale units is 45 years. Affordability restrictions for these units present some additional policy considerations about the sale of the home during the affordability term.

3. Couple with incentives and concessions.
From both a legal and a practical standpoint, an inclusionary-housing policy should include incentives and concessions for developers to help offset the cost of providing the affordable units. Common concessions and incentives include:
✦ Density increases, including the option of greater density increases in exchange for higher percentages of affordable units. ✦ Waivers of development standards, such as height and setback requirements.
✦ Reduction in or a waiver of minimum parking requirements, especially for projects located in transit areas.
✦ Expedited permit processing or ministerial approval.
✦ Waiver, reduction or deferral of development fees, either on the inclusionary units or the entire project.
✦ Direct financial subsidies.
California law requires that developers who comply with an on-site inclusionary requirement that meets the affordable-housing requirements of the state Density Bonus Law must receive all of the benefits to which they are entitled under that law. These benefits include a density increase, concessions and incentives, waivers of development standards and reduced parking requirements. For example, a project that includes 20% of units affordable to low-income households is entitled to a 35% density bonus, two concessions or incentives and various other benefits provided under the state law.
4. Establish clear development standards.
In addition to specifying the percentage of affordable units and at which income levels, an ordinance should establish clear standards for the inclusionary units. Among such best practices:
✦ The affordable units must be indistinguishable from the market-rate units in the development, at least outwardly.
✦ The project includes a similar mix of unit types. For example, if a multifamily rental development will have an equal number of 1-, 2- and 3-bedroom units, the affordable units should also incorporate an equal mix of 1-, 2- and 3-bedroom units. Many ordinances also require that inclusionary units be the same square footage as the market-rate units, although in some cases jurisdictions have built in flexibility to reduce square footage while including the same number of bedrooms to reduce project costs.
✦ Inclusionary units must be located throughout the development rather than clustered in one area.
✦ Residents of the affordable units must have access to all amenities – such as a pool, a fitness center and parking – that market-rate residents have.
✦ The affordable units must be completed either prior to or concurrent with the market-rate units, and prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy.
ACCESSORY DWELLING UNITS: For single-family for-sale developments, some jurisdictions have allowed accessory dwelling units (ADUs) as a way tofulfill an inclusionary requirement. This is not considered a best practice and should be avoided. While cities and counties should encourage the construction of ADUs, which can be a land- and cost-efficient way of expanding a community’s housing supply, they are problematic from an inclusionary standpoint.
ADUs are readily distinguishable from the other units in a for-sale development, and may raise equity and fair-housing concerns if used as the means for achieving compliance with an inclusionary policy.
ADUs are also typically studios or 1-bedrooms rather than a match of the bedroom mix of the primary development, and are often designed as “micro” or “efficiency” units without similar amenities as the primary development.
They are challenging to deed-restrict and monitor, and are unlikely to provide the long-term affordability that an inclusionary ordinance should require.

Packet Pg. 220 Attachment: Attachment A - Inclusionary Factsheet (3114 : Inclusionary Housing Ordinance Options) 6 MEETING CALIFORNIA’S HOUSING NEEDS: BEST PRACTICES FOR INCLUSIONARY HOUSING If properly designed, an in-lieu fee option can have advantages in certain jurisdictions. In-lieu fees can enable a jurisdiction to leverage state and federal funds that may not have otherwise been available, allowing for more affordable units to be built than would have been created on-site.
IN-LIEU ADVANTAGES: It can also provide flexibility to produce needed units that the inclusionary requirement is not producing, such as extremely lowincome units; use funds to preserve existing affordable housing with expiring deed restrictions; produce rental units in places where the inclusionary requirement is primarily creating for-sale units (or vice versa); or develop affordable units in parts of the city where development isn’t happening and thus the inclusionary requirement is having no impact.
If allowed, the fee amount should be set at a level comparable to the cost of producing a similar unit to the one that otherwise would have been provided on-site. One of the most common methods for determining the fee amount is to base it on the gap between the affordable-housing and market-rate costs. For example, if it costs $300,000 to produce a low-income unit but the rent only covers the financing on $230,000, then the in-lieu fee would be set at $70,000 to cover the difference.
The amount of an in-lieu fee will need to change over time to reflect changes in construction costs, inflation and other market factors. Therefore, it is better to put the formula for determining the fee amount into an ordinance rather than state the amount itself,since amending an ordinance on a regular basis can be time-consuming, costly and potentially controversial.
ADJUSTING THE FEE: The ordinance should specify the mechanism for adjusting the fee over time, such as tying it to increases in the local Construction Cost Index, as San Francisco does. If an ordinance distinguishes between rental and for-sale units in its inclusionary requirements, in-lieu fees should also be distinguished in the same manner to ensure they are an adequate substitute for the provision of on-site units.
Off-site construction
Allowing construction of inclusionary units off-site can have advantages.
For example, a developer may be able to build affordable units more costeffectively off-site, thus enabling more units to be produced. However, there are also pitfalls that jurisdictions should work to avoid.
5. Provide alternative methods of compliance.
Because one of the primary goals of an inclusionary requirement is to make affordable units available in all housing developments, ordinances should require on-site construction of the inclusionary units to the maximum extent possible. However, most jurisdictions have chosen to allow alternatives to on-site production of inclusionary units under certain circumstances.
In California,state law requires that alternative methods of compliance be provided to developers of inclusionary rental housing,although what those alternatives are, and when each alternative is available, is left up to individual jurisdictions. The law doesn’t require alternatives for developers of forsale housing. Common alternatives include in-lieu fees, off-site construction, land donation, and the acquisition and rehabilitation of existing units.
When weighing how to offer to provide some flexibility, alternatives should be appropriately limited to maximize on-site construction. Alternatives should be available where on-site production of units is less feasible, rather than as a default option for all developments. Common mistakes that can lead to inadequate production of actual housing units include setting in-lieu fees too low and failing to establish adequate standards for land donation.
Timing is also a crucial factor in the structure of alternatives. For example, some jurisdictions have required that off-site inclusionary units be completed concurrent with or prior to the development that triggered the inclusionary requirement, or before a certificate of occupancy for that development is issued. Ideally, alternatives should be used only when they will lead to the production of more affordable units than would otherwise be provided on-site, while still being consistent with the ordinance’s other goals.
In-lieu fees
One common alternative is in-lieu fees, which are paid instead of constructing the required affordable units. In-lieu fees are generally paid into a local affordable-housing trust fund that finances the construction of affordable housing at other locations within the community. Of all the alternatives, in-lieu fees provide the greatest challenge to achieving inclusionary goals and therefore should be considered carefully and sparingly.
Unlike off-site construction and land-dedication alternatives, in-lieu fees don’t guarantee a site for the construction of the affordable units. If the amount of the fee is not sufficiently high, the payment may also not produce enough revenue to help produce new affordable units. Without adequate funding and identified locations for their use, the fee revenue could sit unused.
TRUE COST: Furthermore, if in-lieu fees don’t reflect the true cost of producing on-site units, this may drive most developers to opt for paying the fee rather than producing an affordable unit on-site. Over time, this can frustrate the policy and lead to an insufficient proportion of affordable units being developed.
H.2.a
Packet Pg. 221 Attachment: Attachment A - Inclusionary Factsheet (3114 : Inclusionary Housing Ordinance Options) MEETING CALIFORNIA’S HOUSING NEEDS: BEST PRACTICES FOR INCLUSIONARY HOUSING 7 One important consideration with off-site construction is the allowable geography – how far from the development site. Given that the inclusionary requirement seeks to foster mixed-income neighborhoods and reduce segregation, even if inclusionary units can’t be produced on-site in a new development, they should be produced nearby. In cases where that isn’t possible, the jurisdiction should ensure that they are dispersed equitably throughout the community and not clustered in lower-income neighborhoods.
Jurisdictions also typically require more units to be built off-site than would be required on-site. This means the value of the cost savings over on-site construction is captured and translated into a community benefit, and that the policy properly expresses an appropriate preference for on-site units.
Ensuring on-site and off-site construction have similar costs incentivizes on-site construction (which should be the norm), while still providing a meaningful alternative for those projects that can’t feasibly accommodate on-site affordable units.
Another best practice is to require that the off-site units be constructed before or concurrent with the market-rate units,which can be achieved byhaving the off-site units finished before building permits are issued for the market-rate development site. That way an off-site alternative doesn’t simply become an escape hatch to avoid complying with the site’s inclusionary requirement.
Land donation
Land donation can be a useful option where affordable-housing developers have difficulty finding building sites. Paired with in-lieu fees or other sources of affordable-housing funding,dedicated land can be used to produce needed types of housing that might not otherwise get built,such as homes for people with special needs or permanent supportive housing.
However, jurisdictions must establish clear parameters for exercising this alternative. Donated land should be equivalent or greater in value to the affordable units that otherwise would have been produced on-site, and should be ready for development at the time it is donated. It is also important here to consider the allowable geography to make sure that the required affordable units are not concentrated in certain neighborhoods.
6. Include procedure for requesting waivers
or reductions.
An inclusionary requirement may not withstand legal scrutiny if it doesn’t include a process by which a developer can request a waiver or reduction of the requirement. Much like the inclusionary requirement itself,the waiver process should be as clear and specific as possible,detailing both the procedures for requesting the waiver – process, timeline, appeal procedure – and the standards by which the request will be evaluated.
The waiver or reduction process should be carefully structured so that it functions as the exception and not the rule, and is only used in rare cases.
The City of Napa’s inclusionary requirement withstood a constitutional challenge in part because it included a waiver-request provision. The City used a constitutional test todetermine whether a waiver would be approved, under which the developer had to show that the requirement as applied would be unconstitutional.
Other jurisdictions apply a hardship standard,allowing for a waiver or reduction if the developer can show that the requirement would deprive them of all economically viable use of the land. An economic-hardship standard should not be about the level of profit, but about whether any profit can be made.
Feasibility Studies
While not required by state law in California, preparing a feasibility study in support of an inclusionary requirement helps ensure that the requirement is right-sized for local conditions. It’s important not to set an inclusionary requirement so high that it stops development, and equally crucial not to set it too low and miss out on affordable units.
A feasibility study is an opportunity to analyze local market conditions and the economics and tradeoffs of various policy options – affordability percentages and levels, incentives – to make sure the ordinance delivers the number and type of affordable units that a community needs.
It also provides a data-driven foundation for the requirement, which can help overcome opposition by showing that it can be implemented without impeding the developers’ability to earn a profit.
The California Department of Housing and Community Development generally requires local jurisdictions to analyze inclusionary requirements as a potential constraint on development in their housing elements. A feasibility study can help demonstrate that the requirement isn’t a barrier.
NEXUS STUDIES: Feasibility studies should not be confused with nexus studies. A jurisdiction must prepare a nexus study to impose an exaction.
A nexus study would be required if a jurisdiction wanted to adopt a commercial linkage fee, for example, where it must show that the amount of the fee is roughly proportional to the need for affordable housing generated by new commercial development.
An inclusionary requirement is not an exaction but rather a land-use regulation, much like a density requirement or a height restriction, and need only be related to advancing a legitimate purpose. A nexus study is not required when adopting a traditional inclusionary ordinance.

Packet Pg. 222 Attachment: Attachment A - Inclusionary Factsheet (3114 : Inclusionary Housing Ordinance Options) 8 MEETING CALIFORNIA’S HOUSING NEEDS: BEST PRACTICES FOR INCLUSIONARY HOUSING Some jurisdictions require that tenants move at the end of the lease term as soon as their household income exceeds the income limit for the unit. Others allow a tenant to remain until their household income exceeds the income limit by a set amount or percentage.
The policy should be tied to the cost of market-rate housing in the community and ensure that tenants are aware of requirements and receive adequate notice when they exceed income limits and must vacate the unit. To avoid displacement, consider allowing tenants to stay in a unit after their income exceeds allowable limits but convert that unit rent to market rate. The next comparable unit in the development that becomes vacant would then be offered as affordable to replace that “lost”unit. ✦ State how sales of for-sale units will be handled, including the referral of potential buyers and how funds derived from equity-sharing agreements will be used. Also, if the jurisdiction has an option to purchase a unit upon resale or at the end of the regulatory period, it should have a mechanism in place for handling those options.
A strong monitoring program can have the added benefit of providing clear data about the success of the ordinance. This information can then be used to establish that the inclusionary requirement is not a constraint on development for purposes of the housing-element review process,and for potential future discussions about amendments to the inclusionary requirement.

✦ lgc.org/advancing-inclusionary-housing-policy
While “inclusionary housing”usually refers to mandatory land-use policies designed to construct affordable housing within market-rate developments, other tools can also capture land value to produce needed affordable units.
Voluntary inclusionary requirements
California has a statewide, voluntary inclusionary method in the form of Density Bonus Law, with which all cities and counties must comply.
Under this law, developers who include affordable units in their projects are entitled to a density increase and other incentives.
Local governments can offer density increases above those specified in the state law in exchange for higher levels of affordability (units for households at the lower AMI levels).
Linkage fees
A linkage fee can be imposed on commercial and residential development togenerate funds for affordable housing. The amount of this fee is set based on the community’s need for affordable housing generated by new development. A growing number of California cities have adopted commercial linkage fees, including Los Angeles, Oakland, Sacramento and San Diego.
While linkage fees can be a crucial revenue source, a linkage fee for affordable housing doesn’t produce the other community-wide benefits of a traditional inclusionary requirement, such as economically integrated neighborhoods, and may also not be as economically valuable. Pairing a commercial linkage fee with a traditional inclusionary requirement is one way for a community to maximize the production of affordable housing while also advancing other important policy goals.
Ad hoc inclusionary requirements
Some jurisdictions have tried to negotiate inclusionary requirements on a project-by-project basis, often on larger projects. These ad hoc requirements are problematic from a legal standpoint and don’t ensure that all new residential development includes housing affordable at a range of income levels.
Other Value-Capture Tools to Produce Affordable Housing in Development
7. Monitor implementation and compliance.
A jurisdiction that chooses to adopt an inclusionary ordinance should be prepared to devote staff time and resources to ongoing monitoring and other administrative tasks needed to implement the ordinance effectively.
In addition to ensuring that deed restrictions and covenants are recorded in time and that affordability is maintained for the required time period, it is important to ensure that units are occupied by households at the appropriate income levels over time and that resale provisions are enforced.
To maximize the program’s effectiveness, a jurisdiction should adopt procedures that:
✦ Establish whether the jurisdiction, property managers or a designated third party will be responsible for verifying tenant or homebuyer eligibility, income recertification and other occupancy factors.
The best practice is to have the jurisdiction perform these tasks, although smaller jurisdictions may find it more cost-effective to pool resources with other neighboring jurisdictions and contract with a third party. Having property managers perform these tasks can prove overly burdensome due to the training required. ✦ Ensure that a list of available units is up-to-date and readily accessible to households in the targeted income categories, and that the list is maintained in a way that ensures compliance with fair-housing obligations. ✦ Determine which qualified applicants (those meeting household-income restrictions) are chosen to rent or buy inclusionary units. ✦ Recertify tenant income annually and determine when a tenant household no longer qualifies for residency in the inclusionary unit.
H.2.a
Packet Pg. 223 Attachment: Attachment A - Inclusionary Factsheet (3114 : Inclusionary Housing Ordinance Options) 1 Inclusionary Housing in California: The Legal Landscape With the signing of 2017’s landmark housing package, California restored local governments’ ability to apply locally adopted inclusionary housing requirements—which generally mandate that private housing developers include affordable units in their projects—to rental housing.
1 The legislation, combined with recent court decisions upholding the validity of local inclusionary requirements, creates a powerful tool for local governments to wield when crafting policies to promote development that benefits all segments of their community.
A Brief History of Inclusionary Housing
Inclusionary housing ordinances in California “were instituted as a response to . . . exclusionary zoning[], to severe shortages of affordable housing combined with a reduction of federal housing subsidies, and to legal pressures in California and New Jersey.”2 Those legal pressures included the seminal lawsuit filed in New Jersey when a group of low-income African-American and Puerto Rican residents sought to build affordable housing in the Township of Mount Laurel, which maintained exclusionary single-family zoning practices. After that group mounted a legal challenge to the township’s exclusionary practices, the Supreme Court of New Jersey declared that municipalities had an “affirmative obligation” to meet their “fair share” of the regional need for low- and moderate-income housing.3 Later, in enforcing its prior decision, the court found that an affirmative obligation to provide housing opportunities for families of all social strata can sometimes only be satisfied though the use of inclusionary policies.
4 These principles became a blueprint for numerous municipalities across the country, including in California, to promote economic and racial integration within their jurisdictions.
California declared an affirmative legal obligation to meet fair share housing requirements in the state Housing Element Law, enacted in 1969.5 Under the law, “[l]ocal and state governments have a responsibility to use the powers vested in them to facilitate the improvement and development of housing to make adequate provision 1 AB 1505 (Bloom), Chapter 376, Statutes of 2017. 2 Barbara Erlich Kautz, In Defense of Inclusionary Zoning: Successfully Creating Affordable Housing, 36 U.S.F.

H.2.b
Packet Pg. 224 Attachment: Attachment B - Inclusionary Housing in California - The Legal Landscape (3114 : Inclusionary Housing Ordinance Options) 2 for the housing needs of all economic segments of the community.”6 Local jurisdictions that receive federal funding similarly have a duty to reverse the harmful effects of exclusionary zoning under the federal duty to affirmatively further fair housing.7 In addition, California law now requires cities and counties to affirmatively further fair housing in the administration of their housing and community development activities.8 These issues continue to be pressing to this day, and as the New Jersey Supreme Court noted, inclusionary housing policies remain one of the only ways for cities and counties to address them.
The Problem with 2009: Palmer and Patterson
By 2007, over 170 California jurisdictions had adopted inclusionary housing policies, encompassing mandates for rental, for-sale, or a combination of rental and for-sale units.9 Then, in 2009, two Court of Appeal decisions created uncertainty around inclusionary ordinances: Palmer/Sixth St. Properties, L.P. v. City of Los Angeles, 175 Cal.
App. 4th 1396 (2009) and Building Industry Assn. of Central California v. City of Patterson, 171 Cal.App.4th 886 (2009).
The Palmer Decision
In Palmer/Sixth St. Properties, L.P. v. City of Los Angeles, a developer challenged a mandatory rental inclusionary requirement included in a specific plan governing development in a portion of Los Angeles. He argued that the Costa-Hawkins Rental Housing Act, a law that limits rent control in residential tenancies, prohibited the imposition of mandatory inclusionary policies in rental housing. Costa-Hawkins, in relevant part, states “’[n]otwithstanding any other provision of law,’ all residential landlords may, except in specified situations, ‘establish the initial rental rate for a dwelling or unit.’”10 Though the Legislature never considered or addressed inclusionary ordinances when passing Costa-Hawkins, the Court of Appeal agreed with the developer.11 The court’s decision effectively made invalid local inclusionary requirements imposed on rental housing and any in lieu fees associated with them.
Importantly, local for-sale inclusionary requirements remained valid. 6 Cal. Gov't Code § 65580(d). 7 42 U.S.C. §3608.

H.2.b
Packet Pg. 225 Attachment: Attachment B - Inclusionary Housing in California - The Legal Landscape (3114 : Inclusionary Housing Ordinance Options) 3 The Patterson Decision
In a much narrower holding, another Court of Appeal determined that an in lieu fee associated with the City of Patterson’s inclusionary ordinance was not “‘reasonably justified’ as required by the development agreement for the project at issue unless there [was] a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee, as increased, and ‘the deleterious public impact of the development.’”12 The court’s decision was based on the language of the development agreement, the unusual formula the city used to determine the in lieu fee, and the failure of the City of Patterson to articulate an alternative formula. The decision created some uncertainty, temporarily, as to what standard of review courts would use when assessing the validity of an inclusionary ordinance, whether applicable to for sale or rental units.
The combination of the Palmer and Patterson decisions created some uncertainty in the landscape of the law applicable to inclusionary housing ordinances for several years.
Fortunately, recent legislation and court decisions have clarified the law and affirmed the continuing validity and importance of such local measures.
Present Opportunities
Two critical changes in the law related to inclusionary housing have occurred in the last several years. First, the California Supreme Court has clarified that the validity of inclusionary housing ordinances should be judged by the traditional standard applicable to a locality’s exercise of its police powers: whether they are “reasonably related to the broad general welfare purposes for which the ordinance was enacted.”13 Second, the Governor signed AB 1505, which reinstated a municipality’s right to apply inclusionary requirements to rental housing.
The CBIA Decision
Two main issues in CBIA v. City of San Jose were: 1) whether San Jose’s local inclusionary ordinance was an unconstitutional exaction as outlined in the United States Supreme Court’s Nollan/Dolan line of cases; and 2) whether the City’s inclusionary ordinance was subject to the San Remo standard that the ordinance be “reasonably related to the impact of a particular development to which the ordinance applies.”14 12 Bldg. Indus. Assn. of Cent. California v. City of Patterson, 171 Cal. App. 4th 886, 898 (2009) (disapproved of by California Bldg. Indus. Assn. v.

City and County of San Francisco, 27 Cal.4th 643, 663–664 (2002), relating to the Mitigation Fee Act.
H.2.b
Packet Pg. 226 Attachment: Attachment B - Inclusionary Housing in California - The Legal Landscape (3114 : Inclusionary Housing Ordinance Options) 4 First, the court held that the ordinance was not an exaction. To constitute an exaction, the ordinance would have had to “require a developer to give up a property interest for which the government would have been required to pay just compensation under the takings clause outside of the permit process.” 15 The court reasoned that the law was akin to land use regulations that restrict usage of the property (i.e., setbacks, density requirements, etc.) and price controls (i.e., rent stabilization), which have been held to be constitutional and do not require just compensation. 16 Accordingly, restricting the
amount for which a developer can sell or rent a unit is subject only to the same review as any other land use regulation.
Second, the court held that the city need only show that the ordinance is reasonably related to the broad general welfare purposes for which it was enacted, meaning the San Remo standard did not apply. This decision expressly overturned Patterson “to the extent it indicates that the conditions imposed by an inclusionary housing ordinance are valid only if they are reasonably related to the need for affordable housing attributable to the projects to which the ordinance applies.”17 The court found that the higher standard found in San Remo is intended to apply “to permit conditions that require the payment of monetary fees,” not land use regulations.18 Even more narrowly, the court found that the San Remo standard only applies to development mitigation fees.19 In distinguishing San Remo and overturning Patterson, the court noted that San Jose’s law was passed in order to allow the city to meet its affordable housing goals and to ensure that new economically diverse affordable housing was spread throughout the city. In short, pursuant to CBIA, cities and counties are free to impose inclusionary requirements based on their broad police powers.
The Palmer Fix: AB1505
In 2017, Governor Brown signed the long-awaited Palmer fix, once again allowing municipalities to apply inclusionary requirements to rental housing. However, the fix imposes some new standards for the imposition of those restrictions.
Government Code §65850(g) states that cities may:
“Require, as a condition of the development of residential rental units, that the development include a certain percentage of residential rental units affordable to, and 15 California Bldg. Indus. Assn. v. City of San Jose, 61 Cal. 4th 435, 461 (2015). 16 Id. at 461-464. 17 Id. at 479

Packet Pg. 227 Attachment: Attachment B - Inclusionary Housing in California - The Legal Landscape (3114 : Inclusionary Housing Ordinance Options) 5 occupied by, households with incomes that do not exceed the limits for moderateincome, lower income, very low income, or extremely low income households. . .” This first section reinstates the law as it was prior to Palmer. However, it continues:
“The ordinance shall provide alternative means of compliance that may include, but are not limited to, in-lieu fees, land dedication, off-site construction, or acquisition and rehabilitation of existing units.”
By that language, the fix creates a new requirement that a municipality’s local inclusionary ordinance, as applied to rental housing, must include alternative means of compliance other than the construction of affordable rental units on site in a housing development. While the statute provides examples of alternatives, it does not provide an exhaustive list of what those alternatives could be or when they must be granted, leaving it up to cities and counties to decide. As a practical matter, nearly all inclusionary ordinances adopted in California prior to the passage of AB 1505 had already included alternative means of compliance under certain circumstances.
The second portion of AB 1505 allows the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) to review local inclusionary ordinances in specific, limited circumstances. Specifically, Government Code §65850.01 authorizes HCD to review a local inclusionary ordinance if all of the following apply:
1. The ordinance was adopted or amended after September 15, 2017, and no more than 10 years have passed since the adoption or most recent amendment of the ordinance.
2. The ordinance requires that more than 15% of the total units in a residential rental development be affordable to occupants at or below 80% of area median income (i.e, lower-income households).
3. The jurisdiction, according to its annual housing element report, has not met at least 75% of its above-moderate share of the regional housing need over at least a five-year period (prorated based on the length of time within the planning period pursuant to Gov’t Code 65588(f)(1)), or the jurisdiction has not submitted the annual housing element report for at least two consecutive years.
If all of these conditions apply, then HCD may request, and the local jurisdiction must provide within 180 days, an economic feasibility study demonstrating that “the ordinance does not unduly constrain the production of housing.”20 Leaving aside best 20 Gov’t Code §65850.01(b).
H.2.b
Packet Pg. 228 Attachment: Attachment B - Inclusionary Housing in California - The Legal Landscape (3114 : Inclusionary Housing Ordinance Options) 6 practices, the feasibility study is only required if HCD has requested it pursuant to its aforementioned authority; it is not required in order to pass a valid ordinance.
Once a jurisdiction submits a requested economic feasibility analysis, HCD can only review it to determine the following:
1. The preparer of the study is a qualified entity with demonstrated expertise in the area.
2. The study was available on the jurisdiction’s website for at least 30 days and then considered at a regularly scheduled legislative meeting prior to approval.
3. The study was sufficiently rigorous and followed best professional practices.
Importantly, HCD’s authority does not extend to imposing its own analysis of economic feasibility. Once a jurisdiction has submitted the study, HCD has 90 days to determine whether the study meets the requirements described above. If HCD finds that it does not and the jurisdiction disagrees with HCD’s negative determination, it may appeal to the Director of HCD or his or her designee. The Director or designee must then make a decision within 90 days of receipt of the appeal.
If a jurisdiction fails to submit the required feasibility study within 180 days or HCD makes a final determination that the study does not meet the prescribed requirements, the ordinance is still valid. However, until the jurisdiction submits a feasibility study that HCD determines meets the prescribed requirements, it may not impose a requirement to include units affordable to households at 80% of area median income in excess of 15%.
With the resolution of several outstanding legal issues that have clouded the policy choices on inclusionary housing in recent years, local governments once again have clear authority to enact these policies for both rental and for-sale housing. Inclusionary housing policies remain an important local tool for increasing the supply of affordable housing and building equitable, inclusive communities.

20 21 Request
22 23 The Town Council is being asked to consider waiving the first reading and introducing by 24 title only an Ordinance adding Chapter 8.180 to the Moraga Municipal Code creating 25 requirements for affordable housing in new residential development of six units or more. 26 The Planning Commission held a study session on November 7 and conducted a public 27 hearing on November 14, to consider the proposed Chapter 8.180. On November 14, the 28 Commission voted 6-1 in support of a Resolution recommending Council adoption. 29 30 The Council is also being asked to provide direction on the proposed Development 31 Incentives Policy for Projects Meeting the Town’s Affordable Housing Requirements On32 site which is tentatively scheduled for adoption on December 14, 2022. 33 34 Background
35 36 The Town is in the process of undertaking a Comprehensive Advanced Planning Initiative, 37 including a State-mandated update of the Moraga Housing Element, and related General 38 Plan and zoning amendments. As part of the Housing Element, the Town is required to 39 demonstrate to the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) 40 that it has the capacity to add at least 1,118 new housing units by 2031, including 673 41 units that are potentially affordable to lower- and moderate-income households. The 42 1,118-unit assignment is commonly referred to as the Town’s “RHNA”—or Regional 43 Housing Needs Allocation.

2 While the Town is proactively rezoning property to accommodate its RHNA, additional 3 measures are needed to ensure that a substantial share of the housing built is actually 4 affordable to lower- and moderate-income households. Without Town intervention, 5 housing developers would likely produce only market rate units on designated housing 6 opportunity sites. Some of these units might meet affordability guidelines for moderate7 income households but few, if any, would be considered affordable to lower-income households.1 8 In the last two Housing Element cycles, the Town did not produce any of 9 the RHNA-required low- or very low-income housing units. HCD has classified Moraga 10 as a “High Resource Area” and is requiring such areas to meet a larger share of the 11 region’s affordable housing needs than they have in the past. 12 13 On November 10, 2022, the Town received the 90-day letter on the Working Draft 14 Housing Element. A common thread throughout the letter is that the Element must 15 demonstrate that the sites identified to meet the Regional Housing Needs Allocation 16 (RHNA) are distributed throughout the community in a manner that Affirmatively Furthers 17 Fair Housing (AFFH). HCD has provided Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) 18 Guidance for All Public Entities and for Housing Elements, see AFFH link. As of January 19 1, 2019, AB 686 creates a state mandate requiring public agencies and jurisdictions to 20 “take meaningful actions that overcome patterns of segregation and foster inclusive 21 communities free from barriers that restrict access to opportunity based on protected 22 characteristics.” The AFFH Guidance covers a wide range of locally-based solutions for 23 jurisdictions State wide, and also provides Examples of Affirmatively Furthering Fair 24 Housing Actions (page 72). The actions include Housing Mobility Strategies, New 25 Housing Choices and Affordability in Areas of Opportunity, Place-based Strategies to 26 Encourage Community Conservation and Revitalization, Protecting Existing Residents 27 from Displacement.
28 29 One of the tools commonly used and recommended by HCD to ensure that at least some 30 of the units in new developments are “affordable” is inclusionary housing (also called 31 inclusionary zoning). Inclusionary housing ordinances require developers to provide a 32 percentage of new residential units at a price that is considered affordable to very low-, 33 low-, or moderate-income households. The “Inclusionary” units have deed restrictions 34 that limit the rent (or sales price) that may be charged, as well as the annual income of 35 the tenant (or purchaser). Inclusionary Housing is an Affordable Housing tool to help the 36 Town meet its RHNA goal. Over 60 percent of the Town’s RHNA goal is comprised of 37 housing units that are affordable to lower- and moderate-income households. State 38 Density Bonus Law provides an additional tool to meet these targets; however, it is 39 voluntary while the proposed Inclusionary Zoning Ordinance would be mandatory. 40 41 Staff provided an overview on housing implementation tools, including inclusionary 42 housing, at a Joint Planning Commission and Town Council meeting on May 4, 2022. 43 After receiving the report, Council provided direction to staff for a more detailed 1 In 2022, the upper income limit for a “lower income” household was $76,750 for a one-person household, $87,700 for a two-person household, $98,650 for a three-person household, and $109,600 for a four-person household. The equivalent “affordable” monthly housing costs were $1,919 (1 pp), $2,193 (2 pp), $2,466 (3 pp), and $2,740 (4 pp).
For “moderate-income” households, affordable monthly housing costs were $2,999 (1 pp), $3,428 (2 pp), $3,855 (3 pp), and $4,283 (4 pp).

Packet Pg. 231 Attachment: Attachment C - Moraga Affordable Housing Ord (3114 : Inclusionary Housing Ordinance Options) 3 1 presentation at a future Town Council meeting. On August 24, 2022, staff provided a 2 focused discussion on Inclusionary Housing requesting feedback on policy prior to 3 developing an ordinance. The staff reports for these study sessions provide more context 4 and may be consulted for additional detail. Hyperlinks are provided below:
5 6 • The May 4, 2022 staff report may be accessed here. (see pages 13-18) 7 • The August 24, 2022 staff report may be accessed here. 8 9 The policy areas discussed at the August 24th meeting and the direction provided by 10 Council were as follows:
11 12 • The percentage of units that must be affordable. Council direction was to include 13 a 10% affordability requirement.
14 • The depth of affordability required (i.e., of the BMR units, what percentage need 15 to be very low, low, and moderate?) Council direction was 10% low-income 16 affordability for rental units and 10% moderate affordability for for-sale units. 17 • Exemptions (small projects may be exempt from the ordinance). Council direction 18 was to provide an exemption for projects with five or fewer units. 19 • Treatment of “fractional” units (when the total number of units is multiplied by the 20 percentage requirement, the product is usually not a round number). Council 21 direction was to collect an in-lieu fee for fractional units. 22 • Applicability to rental vs ownership units (most ordinances apply to both). Council 23 direction was to apply the affordable requirement to both rental and ownership 24 units.
25 • Alternatives for developers who wish to meet the requirement without providing the 26 unit(s) on-site (this allowance is required by State law). Council provided direction 27 that the off-site affordable unit requirement should be 50 percent higher than the 28 percent required for on-site construction. Council also provided direction that if the 29 affordable requirement was met through acquisition and rehabilitation of existing 30 multi-family housing, at least two units shall be rehabilitated for each affordable 31 unit required.
32 • Design of inclusionary units (do they need to look the same as the market rate 33 units?) Council provided direction on the following:
34 o The units should be dispersed through the project
35 o The units should be comparable in terms of bedroom count, however, the 36 units may be smaller
37 o The exterior design and character should be consistent with the market rate 38 units
39 o The interior finishes may be different but they must be good quality 40 o The affordable units must have access to all amenities. 41 • Calculation of in-lieu fees. Council directed staff to provide additional information 42 on a recommended methodology.
43 • Length of affordability. Council direction was that for-sale units should be 44 affordable for 45 years, while rental units should be affordable for 55 years.
H.2.c
Packet Pg. 232 Attachment: Attachment C - Moraga Affordable Housing Ord (3114 : Inclusionary Housing Ordinance Options) 4 1 • Jurisdiction-wide vs applicability in specific areas only. Council direction was that 2 the ordinance should apply townwide.
3 • Incentives that offset the economic impact of the inclusionary units. Council 4 direction was to take into consideration the concerns of developers. 5 6 The Town Council also requested that staff solicit feedback from developers prior to 7 developing an Inclusionary Housing Ordinance. Staff convened a “Developer 8 Roundtable” on October 20 to receive input on potential Inclusionary Housing 9 requirements. A link to the video of the Developer Roundtable can be found here. 10 11 Staff has developed a Draft Affordable Housing Ordinance based on the input and 12 feedback received from Town Council, at the Developer Roundtable, and from 13 stakeholders. The Planning Commission received a presentation on the proposed 14 Affordable Housing Ordinance on November 7. The Planning Commission held a public 15 hearing to consider the proposed Ordinance on November 14, 2022. 16 17 The Commission approved a resolution recommending adoption of the Ordinance by a 18 6:1 vote at its November 14 meeting. Of the six Commissioners voting in favor, three 19 supported the proposed Ordinance “as is” and three supported a modification to avoid 20 encouraging additional housing units in wildland-urban interface areas. The 21 Commission’s specific concern was that the proposal to allow developers in lower-density 22 zones to meet affordable housing requirements through Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) 23 would potentially increase the number of households in high fire hazard areas. The 24 Commissioner casting the “no” vote on the Ordinance indicated his support for the 25 concept of inclusionary zoning but expressed that it should apply only in the Town’s two 26 commercial centers.
27 28 On November 16, the Town Council received a briefing on the proposed Ordinance. The 29 following points were raised:
30 31 • The Town Council was generally supportive of Planning Commission direction to avoid 32 creating incentives for additional housing units in wildland-urban interface areas. A 33 distinction was made between the Town’s ADU regulations, which are guided by State 34 law, and the proposed affordable housing provisions, which are set by the Town. 35 • The Council reiterated the desire to ensure the Ordinance is flexible and responsive 36 to the real estate market.
37 • The issue of expanding public awareness of the proposed ordinance and soliciting 38 community input to the extent possible was raised. Staff explained that public input 39 had been solicited at meetings throughout 2022.
40 • The alternative of using market-rate ADUs rather than deed-restricted units (either for41 sale or for-rent) was generally supported. Councilmembers expressed differing views 42 on the proposed alternative, and discussion occurred regarding the 500 square foot 43 minimum, the 25 percent threshold, and the potential applicability of the ADU 44 alternative to higher density districts.
45 46 Local developer and property-owner David Bruzzone spoke at the November 16 meeting 47 and provided correspondence on the Draft Ordinance. Mr. Bruzzone expressed his view 48 that the Affordable Housing requirement should be voluntary rather than mandatory, that H.2.c
Packet Pg. 233 Attachment: Attachment C - Moraga Affordable Housing Ord (3114 : Inclusionary Housing Ordinance Options) 5 1 there should be no size limit on ADUs for developers using the ADU option, that the ADU 2 option be available in all residential zoning districts, and that the Town allow “banking” or 3 “transfer” of affordable housing credits for developers building market rate housing in one 4 location while providing ADUs in another. Mr. Bruzzone further expressed that fees for 5 fractional units should be required at the time of occupancy rather than Final Map 6 approval or building permit issuance, that the “25 percent ADU option” be reduced to 10 7 percent, and that “off-site alternatives” require the same number of affordable units as the 8 “on-site” requirements. As directed by Council, Staff met with Mr. Bruzzone on November 9 22 to further discuss his concerns about the Ordinance. 10 11 The next section of this report provides an overview of the Draft Ordinance (Attachment 12 “A”). The Ordinance refers to a Policy Resolution (Attachment “B”) which will be adopted 13 by the Town Council separately, rather than as part of the Municipal Code Amendment. 14 The Policy Resolution includes development incentives. Because the incentives require 15 a greater degree of flexibility and potentially amendments in the future, they are not 16 included as part of the proposed Ordinance.
17 18 Discussion
19 20 The proposed Chapter 8.180 (Affordable Housing) is included as Attachment “A” to this 21 Report and is summarized as follows:
22 23 Sections 8.180.010 and .020 indicate the title and purpose of the Ordinance, respectively. 24 The purpose statement explains the importance of the Ordinance to meeting the Town’s 25 RHNA and providing a tool for affirmatively furthering fair housing and creating housing 26 for the Moraga workforce, seniors, students, and other special needs groups in the 27 community.
28 29 Section 8.180.030 provides definitions of key terms used in the Ordinance. All of the 30 terms referenced in the definition appear in later sections of the Ordinance. 31 32 Section 8.180.040 identifies the General Requirements for the program, including the 33 types of projects that are covered (and exemptions), and the percentage of affordable 34 units that are required. Recognizing economic considerations, the Ordinance has 35 different requirements for for-rent and for-sale housing and allows flexibility in the 36 percentages of affordable units to be provided based on the depth of affordability. This 37 section also addresses “fractional” units.
38 39 Section 8.180.050 addresses Administration of the program, including requirements for 40 inclusionary housing plans and agreements. The agreements establish resale restrictions 41 for inclusionary for-sale units, and rental restrictions for rental units, as well as provisions 42 to monitor compliance once units are created. This section also gives the Council the 43 authority to adopt in-lieu fees for fractional units, Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zones 44 and for developers who cannot feasibly provide the inclusionary housing units on-site. 45 The basis for the fee is the gap between the value of a market-rate unit and an affordable 46 unit, which will be established through a future fee resolution. 47 H.2.c
Packet Pg. 234 Attachment: Attachment C - Moraga Affordable Housing Ord (3114 : Inclusionary Housing Ordinance Options) 6 1 Section 8.180.060 identifies alternative means of compliance. In each case, the Town 2 Council must find that on-site provision of affordable units is infeasible or that greater 3 public benefit will result from the units being off-site. The alternative options include 4 building the units off-site, partnering with a non-profit for off-site construction, acquiring 5 and rehabilitating existing multi-family housing in Moraga and making it affordable, or 6 paying an in-lieu fee. The Ordinance also allows applicants to propose other creative 7 concepts for meeting the requirements of the chapter. 8 9 Section 8.180.070 indicates the standards for inclusionary units. This includes the 10 required length of affordability (45 years if for-sale, 55 years if for-rent), requirements for 11 the design of affordable units, and requirements for timing (i.e., when the inclusionary 12 units become available relative to the market rate units). 13 14 Section 8.180.080 identifies incentives to offset the profit loss associated with limiting 15 rents and sales prices for the inclusionary units. These incentives include fee deferral (at 16 the discretion of the Town Council), density bonuses, and modified development 17 standards that support the development of additional units. The incentives are designed 18 to work in tandem with the State density bonus program. The bonuses and incentives 19 themselves are not quantified in the Municipal Code, but a separate document (to be 20 adopted by Resolution) would establish a schedule for use in future applications. 21 22 Section 8.180.090 provides further detail for applicants who choose to comply with the 23 Inclusionary Ordinance by providing accessory dwelling units (ADUs) rather than deed 24 restricted affordable units. This option is only available to for-sale development in lower25 density zoning districts. Projects choosing this option are not eligible for density bonuses 26 but also are not subject to limitations on occupancy, income, or rent of the ADUs. 27 28 Section 8.180.100 includes provisions for applicants requesting waivers or adjustments 29 to the requirements. These are only available in limited circumstances and are subject 30 to approval by the Town Council. Section 8.180.110 addresses enforcement and includes 31 provisions for appeal.
32 33 The sections below highlight how specific issues are addressed by the proposed 34 Ordinance.
35 36 Exemptions/ Applicability
37 38 The Ordinance would apply to all residential projects with six or more units. Projects with 39 five or fewer units would be exempt. The Ordinance would apply Town-wide, but projects 40 in lower density zones would have the option of meeting the inclusionary requirement 41 through ADUs, as described below.
42 43 Percentage of Units Required and Depth of Affordability 44 45 In rental projects, applicants would meet the requirement by dedicating 10 percent of the 46 units for low-income households. Consistent with the RHNA, low income is defined as 47 80% of areawide median income (AMI) and very low income is defined as 50% of AMI.
H.2.c
Packet Pg. 235 Attachment: Attachment C - Moraga Affordable Housing Ord (3114 : Inclusionary Housing Ordinance Options) 7 1 “Affordable” rents may represent no more than 30 percent of monthly income for 2 households in these units.
3 4 In for-sale projects, applicants are required to dedicate 10 percent of the units for 5 purchase by moderate income households. However, in zones with densities of R-6 or 6 lower (e.g., R-6, 3 DUA, 2 DUA, 1 DUA, and Rural Residential), developers may meet the 7 requirement by including ADUs in 25 percent of all new housing units. No deed 8 restrictions or occupancy limitations would apply to the ADUs. 9 10 The Ordinance is written in a flexible manner so that developers may propose alternative 11 percentages upon demonstration that they are of equivalent value to the Town. For 12 instance, a developer may propose a smaller inclusionary percentage in a rental project 13 if the inclusionary units serve very low-income households rather than low-income 14 households.
15 16 Fractional Units and In-lieu Fees
17 18 The Ordinance gives the Town Council the authority to adopt an in-lieu fee. The primary 19 purpose of the fee would be to calculate the amount due for fractional units. In other 20 words, if an applicant proposed a 24-unit rental project, they would be required to include 21 2.4 lower income units in their project (or a smaller number of very low-income units 22 equivalent in value). Since dwelling units are counted in whole numbers, the “fractional” 23 remainder would be converted to a fee. The amount of the fee has not been established 24 and would be determined by the Town Council. The basis for the fee is included in the 25 Ordinance. It represents the gap between the market-rate price (sales or rent) and the 26 affordable price (sales or rent) of the inclusionary unit. 27 28 Alternate Means of Compliance
29 30 AB 1505 requires that at least one alternate means of compliance is provided in 31 inclusionary housing ordinances. Some developers may find it infeasible to include 32 affordable units in their projects, and request relief through such alternate means. As 33 noted above, the alternatives are off-site construction, acquisition/rehabilitation of existing 34 units, and partnership with a non-profit developer. In the latter case, the partnership could 35 include land donation and financial assistance to facilitate off-site construction of 36 affordable units. The off-site alternatives require higher ratios of affordable units to 37 market rate units. The goal is to assist the Town in meeting AFFH requirements and 38 prioritize units built on site.
39 40 For off-site construction (or assistance to a non-profit), a ratio of 1.5:1 is applied so that 41 the applicant must build 50% more units than would otherwise be required. For 42 developers choosing acquisition/rehab in lieu of building the units off-site (or assistance 43 to a non-profit for this purpose), the applicant must rehabilitate twice the number of units 44 that would otherwise be required. The higher ratios are intended to disincentivize the 45 alternatives and encourage applicants to build the units on-site. 46 H.2.c
Packet Pg. 236 Attachment: Attachment C - Moraga Affordable Housing Ord (3114 : Inclusionary Housing Ordinance Options) 8 1 As noted earlier, another alternate means of compliance is provided for lower-density 2 residential projects (R-6 or lower). This refers to the provision to include ADUs in 25 3 percent of the units rather than dedicating deed-restricted affordable units. 4 5 Based on Planning Commission and Town Council input, staff has added a new 6 alternative that provides developers in Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zones with the 7 option to pay an in-lieu fee rather than developing the 10% affordable units. 8 9 The Ordinance also allows developers to propose other “creative concepts” for meeting 10 the intent of the requirement, subject to Town Council approval. 11 12 Length of Affordability
13 14 The Ordinance proposes that for-sale units are deed restricted for 45 years, and for-rent 15 units are deed restricted for 55 years. These affordability terms are consistent with State 16 Density Bonus Law.
17 18 Timing of Construction
19 20 The Ordinance requires inclusionary units to be constructed prior to or concurrently with 21 construction of the market rate units. In general, construction of affordable units may not 22 be deferred to a future date after the market rate units are completed. However, the 23 Ordinance does establish limited opportunities for a deferral of up to three years where 24 an Agreement has been signed between the market-rate developer and an affordable 25 housing developer. This is in response to comments by developers at the roundtable 26 meeting.
27 28 Design
29 30 The Ordinance requires that the inclusionary units be reasonably dispersed around the 31 project, comparable in bedroom count, compatible in exterior design and character, and 32 have access to all amenities in the project. However, inclusionary rental units may be 33 20% smaller than market-rate units, and inclusionary for-sale units may be 30% smaller 34 than market-rate units. The inclusionary units may have different interior finishes than 35 the market rate units, provided they are durable and of high quality. 36 37 Policy Resolution: Development Incentives for Projects Meeting the Town’s Affordable 38 Housing Requirements On-Site
39 40 Attachment “B” to this Staff Report is a Policy Resolution with specific bonuses and 41 incentives available to developers providing inclusionary units on-site. Developers are 42 entitled to the bonuses provided by the State of California under State Density Bonus Law 43 (SDBL), and an additional local bonus that allows construction of 30 to 36 units per acre. 44 Developers are further entitled to incentives comparable to those offered through the 45 SDBL.
46 47 The Policy Resolution is proposed for adoption at the December 14 Council meeting, 48 following the Second Reading of the Ordinance. The incentives can be adopted by H.2.c
Packet Pg. 237 Attachment: Attachment C - Moraga Affordable Housing Ord (3114 : Inclusionary Housing Ordinance Options) 9 1 resolution rather than by ordinance so that they can be more easily amended in the future. 2 The incentives respond to feedback from the developer roundtable that multi-family 3 projects may not be economically viable at the proposed General Plan and zoning density 4 of 24 units per acre. Additional incentives have been proposed on top of those already 5 allowed by the State, enabling densities of up to 30 units per acre for projects complying 6 with the Ordinance, and up to 36 units per acre for projects providing student or senior 7 housing.
8 9 The incentives would allow some of the provisions of SDBL for lower-income households 10 to apply to projects with affordable housing units serving households earning up to 80 11 percent of AMI. Current SDBL defines low-income households as earning up to 60 12 percent of AMI, so the broader definition (which is consistent with the RHNA definition) 13 would provide an expansion of potential incentives. More specifically, projects meeting 14 the inclusionary requirements on-site would be eligible for the SDBL parking standards, 15 which are lower than the Town’s standards, plus one development incentive, such as 16 reduced setbacks, additional height, or increased lot coverage. 17 18 Next Steps
19 20 The December 7 meeting is the first reading of the Ordinance. A second reading is 21 scheduled for December 14. The Council is scheduled to adopt the Policy Resolution 22 concurrently with the second reading on December 14. The Ordinance will become 23 effective on January 13, 2023, 30 days after the second reading. Once adopted, the 24 effectiveness of the Ordinance and policy resolution will be periodically evaluated, with 25 modifications made as needed based on results.
26 27 The Town Council has retained Keyser Marston, an economics consulting firm, to develop 28 the in-lieu fee/ fractional fee required to implement the Affordable Housing Ordinance. 29 The Council is scheduled to consider a resolution at the January 11, 2023 meeting to 30 adopt the fee.
31 32 CEQA
33 34 The proposed Municipal Code Amendments are exempt from the provisions of the 35 California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (Public Resources Code Section 2100, et 36 seq.) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3). Adoption and implementation 37 of the proposed Ordinance does not constitute a “project” as defined by CEQA because 38 the Ordinance by itself would not result in a direct physical change to the environment or 39 a reasonably foreseeable indirect change.
40 41 The Code Amendments are occurring within the context of a broader planning initiative 42 that is subject to CEQA. A Draft EIR has been prepared for the Comprehensive Advanced 43 Planning Initiative and was published on October 27. The comment period for the 44 Planning Initiative EIR ends on December 12, 2022 at 5:00 p.m. 45 46
H.2.c
Packet Pg. 238 Attachment: Attachment C - Moraga Affordable Housing Ord (3114 : Inclusionary Housing Ordinance Options) 10 1 Fiscal Impact
2 3 Adoption of affordable housing requirements will require the collection of fees for 4 fractional units. A dedicated Affordable Housing Fund would be created by the Town as 5 a repository for these fees. As they accrue, the fees would be used to support Housing 6 Element programs and potentially provide a supplemental funding source for non-profit 7 affordable housing developers. There would be additional costs associated with 8 administering affordable housing requirements, reviewing affordable housing plans and 9 Agreements, and monitoring compliance with the program. Some of these functions 10 could be carried out by third parties, as the Town has limited staff capacity. 11 12 Recommendations
13 14 1. Find the proposed Municipal Code Amendments to be exempt from CEQA pursuant 15 to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) and Adopt Ordinance ___ Amending the 16 Moraga Municipal Code to create Chapter 8.180 – Affordable Housing (first reading). 17 2.

As an alternative to providing all or a portion of the Inclusionary Units on the same site as the Residential Development, the Developer may enter into an agreement with a non-profit developer to (i) fund a portion of a proposed affordable housing project in Moraga; or (ii) to provide a land donation for the construction of affordable housing units on an alternative site in the Town of Moraga, subject to the following requirements:
(1) At least 1.5 units shall be provided for each Inclusionary Unit required. (2) The value of the land donation and/or funding shall be approximately equivalent to or greater than the Developer cost associated with Alternative (A) described above. (3) The Developer and the Non-Profit Housing Developer shall enter into a signed written agreement to construct the required Inclusionary Units at the time of project entitlement.
(4) The following provisions shall apply to the off-site residential development:

b. If applicable, the off-site units shall include a declaration of covenants, conditions and restrictions similar to that required for on-site Inclusionary Units. c. In the event that off-site construction is used, the Affordable Housing Agreement shall include a construction schedule which ensures the off-site units will be available for occupancy concurrently with the Market-Rate Units.

(1) At least 2.0 rehabilitated units shall be provided for each Inclusionary Unit required. (2) The following provisions shall apply:
a. The off-site development shall be governed by the terms of a deed restriction limiting occupancy of the required number of units to qualified Low or Very Lowincome households and establishing rents meeting affordability criteria for Low or Very Low-income households.
b. If applicable, the off-site units shall include a declaration of covenants, conditions and restrictions similar to that required for on-site Inclusionary Units. c. The Affordable Housing Agreement shall include a schedule which ensures the off-site units will be available for occupancy concurrently with the Market-Rate project.

Nothing in this provision precludes the owner from including ADUs in their project, as permitted by State law.
E. Alternate Methods of Compliance. Applicants may propose creative concepts for meeting the requirements of this Chapter, whether on or off-site. The Town Council may approve such alternate methods if the Applicant demonstrates that the purpose of this Chapter (as set forth in Section 8.18.020) has been met.

Development Incentives Policy
Developers meeting the Town’s affordable housing requirements on-site shall be eligible for the density bonuses listed below. Developers meeting the requirements through an Alternative means of compliance as defined in Section 8.180.060 of the Moraga Municipal Code shall not be eligible for local bonuses. Projects with five units or fewer shall likewise be ineligible for local bonuses.
State Density Bonus Law (SDBL) requires that projects receiving low-income housing density bonuses must be affordable to households earning 60 percent of Areawide Median Income (AMI) or lower. As an incentive, the Town of Moraga will award equivalent density bonuses for projects serving households earning 80 percent of AMI or less. In addition, the Town will offer a supplemental local density bonus which may be added to the State bonus for projects providing on-site inclusionary units. The tables below represent the aggregate of the State Density Bonus and an additional Town of Moraga bonus for various housing types. As the table indicates, higher bonuses are provided for housing types identified in the 2023-2031 Housing Element as being particularly important to the Town.

Parking
In addition to the density bonus, such projects shall be entitled to use State Density Bonus parking requirements for lower income housing for projects serving households up to 80 % of AMI, rather than the 60% AMI required by the State. The parking requirements are:
• Studio and One-Bedroom: 1 space
• Two or Three Bedrooms: 1.5 space
• Four Bedrooms: 2.5 spaces
Concession or Incentive
Consistent with State Density Bonus Law, applicants who meet the 10% affordable housing requirement on-site are also automatically eligible for one concession or incentive. Only one incentive may be requested unless deeper levels of affordability are provided. Developers seeking relief from other development standards may request waivers as allowed by State Density Bonus Law.
Examples of desired incentives include but are not limited to:
(1) Increased height/ stories
(2) Reduced setbacks or stepbacks
(3) Reduced private open space requirements
(4) Increased floor area ratio, where applicable
(5) Increased lot coverage

12 13 Subject: Study Session on Establishing a Fractional In Lieu Fee in Accordance 14 with the Town’s Affordable Housing Ordinance
15 16 CEQA: The project is consistent with the previously certified Environmental 17 Impact Report for the Comprehensive Advanced Planning Initiative and is 18 categorically exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act 19 Guidelines 15061(b)(3) and is covered by the commonsense exemption. 20 21 Request
22 23 Receive an informational report on the proposed Affordable Housing Fractional In Lieu 24 Fees pursuant to the adopted Affordable Housing Chapter 8.180 in the Moraga Municipal 25 Code, which created requirements for affordable housing in new residential development 26 of six units or more. The Town Council adopted Chapter 8.180 on December 14, 2022, 27 and it went into effect on January 13, 2023.
28 29 Background
30 31 On December 14, the Town Council adopted an Affordable Housing Ordinance 32 (Ordinance) to increase affordable housing production and meet a new State requirement 33 to Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH). The Ordinance requires developers to 34 provide a percentage of new residential units at a price that is considered affordable to 35 very low-, low-, or moderate-income households. The “Inclusionary” units will have deed 36 restrictions that limit the rent (or sales price) that may be charged, as well as the annual 37 income of the tenant (or purchaser). Inclusionary Housing is a tool to help the Town meet 38 its Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) goal of 1,118 new units. Over 60 percent 39 of the Town’s RHNA goal is comprised of housing units that are affordable to lower- and 40 moderate-income households. The detailed December 7, 2022 staff report for the 41 Affordable Housing Ordinance may be accessed here.
42 43 The Ordinance gives the Town Council the authority to adopt a fractional in-lieu fee. The 44 primary purpose is to address situations where the inclusionary requirement does not Town of Moraga Agenda Item

Projects with a fractional 2 inclusionary unit requirement are eligible to either pay an in-lieu fee for the fractional unit 3 or provide a whole inclusionary unit. For example, if an applicant proposed a 24-unit rental 4 project, the 10% inclusionary requirement represents 2.4 lower income units. Since 5 dwelling units are counted in whole numbers, the “fractional” remainder of 0.4 units could 6 either be satisfied through payment of an the proposed fractional in-lieu fee or the 7 applicant could choose to round up and provide 3 affordable units within the project. In 8 this instance, the requirement for 2.4 units would mean two affordable units would be 9 provided and the applicant would pay a fee equal to four-tenths of a dwelling unit. 10 11 The amount of the fee has not yet been established and must be determined by the Town 12 Council. The basis for the fee is included in the Ordinance. It represents the gap between 13 the market-rate price (sales or rent) and the affordable price (sales or rent) of the 14 inclusionary unit. At the December 7 meeting, staff shared that a study is required for the 15 in lieu fees and it would be brought to Council as a future separate action. Since the 16 December meeting, staff contracted with Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. (KMA) on an 17 Inclusionary Housing Fee Calculation memorandum (see Attachment B). 18 19 Section 8.180.040 identifies the General Requirements for the program, including the 20 types of projects that are covered (and exemptions), and the percentage of affordable 21 units that are required. Recognizing economic considerations, the Ordinance has 22 different requirements for for-rent and for-sale housing and allows flexibility in the 23 percentages of affordable units to be provided based on the depth of affordability. This 24 section also addresses “fractional” units.
25 26 Section 8.180.050 addresses Administration of the program, including requirements for 27 inclusionary housing plans and agreements. The agreements establish resale restrictions 28 for inclusionary for-sale units, and rental restrictions for rental units, as well as provisions 29 to monitor compliance once units are created. A summary of the Ordinance specific to In 30 Lieu Fees is as follows:
31 32 1. Applicability to rental vs ownership units (most ordinances apply to both). Council 33 direction was to apply the affordable requirement to both rental and ownership 34 units.
35 2. Exemptions (small projects may be exempt from the ordinance). Council direction 36 was to provide an exemption for projects with five or fewer units for inclusionary 37 units, with no fee collected for these projects.
38 3. Residential Developments with 6 (six), 7 (seven), 8 (eight), or 9 (nine) units shall 39 have the option of providing one full Inclusionary Unit or paying the In-Lieu Fee in 40 an amount equal to the following schedule:
41 42 Total Units in Project Fractional Inclusionary Unit Required 43 6 0.20
44 7 0.40
45 8 0.60
46 9 0.80

4 5. For-Sale Units. The fee amount should represent a reasonable portion of the gap 5 between the Affordable Sales Price at the corresponding income level and the 6 Market-Rate sales price of for-sale housing of a similar product type. 7 6. Rental Units. The fee amount should represent a reasonable portion of the gap 8 between the Affordable Rent at the corresponding income level and the market9 rate rent for a similar product type over the lifetime of the affordability term. 10 7. In Lieu Fee for Projects in Very High Fire Severity Zones (VHFSZ). Applicants of 11 projects in a VHFSZ as determined by CALFIRE may at their discretion, select to 12 pay an in-lieu fee as an alternative to constructing the affordable units on -site, off13 site, or through Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs). Nothing in this provision 14 precludes the owner from including ADUs in their project, as permitted by State 15 Law.
16 17 Exemptions/ Applicability
18 19 Per the Ordinance, inclusionary requirements and in-lieu fees do not apply to projects of 20 five or fewer units. The Ordinance applies Town-wide, but projects in lower density zones 21 would have the option of meeting the inclusionary requirement through 25% Accessory 22 Dwelling Units (ADUs). No rent or income restrictions would apply to the ADUs and they 23 may be used at the owner’s discretion (rental of the ADUs is not required). 24 25 The focus of this report is the methodology and fee calculation as set forth in the KMA 26 memorandum (Attachment B).
27 28 Discussion
29 30 Based on a review of inclusionary housing fees in other communities, there are two 31 primary ways of calculating the fee—on a square foot basis or on a dwelling unit basis. 32 The square foot basis was used in this case, as it is more equitable and places a lower 33 burden on smaller units. A 1,000 square foot condominium would be subject to a much 34 lower fee than 3,000 square foot home; this would not be the case if the fee was based 35 on the number of dwelling units in the project. This square foot basis allows the fee to 36 scale with the size of the market rate units and avoids creating a disincentive for smaller 37 more affordable market rate units.
38 39 The KMA memo and appendix is extensive and provides a comprehensive methodology 40 and calculations to determine an in-lieu fee consistent with the requirements of the 41 Ordinance. The KMA overall basis for the affordable housing in-lieu fee was calculated to 42 be $39.00 per square foot for for-sale projects and $25.00 per square foot for rental 43 projects. These figures represent the gross per square foot in-lieu that would apply if no 44 affordable units were provided by the project. The gross in-lieu fee amounts are adjusted 45 downward based on the portion of the overall inclusionary requirement to be satisfied with 46 fractional unit in-lieu fees. Gross in-lieu fees are also adjusted downward for smaller six 47 to nine unit projects based on the fractional unit requirements specified in the Ordinance.

9 10 Fee Calculation for Typical Projects
11 12 A number of examples are provided below to explain how the fees would apply to actual 13 projects. The examples used are a 24-unit townhome project (average unit size of 2,200 14 SF), a 42-unit rental project (average unit size of 1,200 SF), and a 66-unit rental apartment 15 project (average unit size of 900 SF).
16 17 Case Study: 24 unit for-sale townhome project (2,200 SF each, or total net area of 52,800 18 square feet in the entire project)
19 20 The applicant is obligated to provide 2.4 units affordable to moderate income households 21 (10 percent). The applicant could meet this obligation by rounding the 2.4 up to three 22 affordable units or by providing two affordable units and paying an in-lieu fee equivalent 23 to 0.4 units. The affordable units would be sold to qualifying buyers at moderate income 24 prices (roughly $612,000) and the remaining units would sell at market rates. 25 26 Assuming the developer chose to pay the in-lieu fee, the fee amount would be $343,200. 27 This is essentially four-tenths of the “gap” between one market-rate unit and one 2 4% average capitalization rate reported by Costar for apartment properties sold in the prior one-year period within the Walnut Creek submarket.

3 4 0.4/2.4 x $39 x 52,800 = $343,200
5 (Fractional amount / Total requirement) x in-lieu fee x project area 6 7 Case Study: 42-unit apartment project (1,200 SF each, or total net area of 50,400 SF in 8 the entire project)
9 10 The applicant is obligated to provide 4.2 units affordable to lower income households (10 11 percent). The applicant could meet this obligation by rounding the 4.2 up to five affordable 12 units or by providing four affordable units and paying an in-lieu fee equivalent to 0.2 units. 13 The affordable units would be rented to qualifying buyers at lower-income rents (roughly 14 $2,300) and the remaining units would rent at market rates. 15 16 Assuming the developer chose to pay the in-lieu fee, the amount would be $60,000. This 17 is essentially two-tenths of the “gap” between one market-rate unit and one subsidized 18 unit in the project. The cost is calculated by applying the unit cost of $25 per square foot 19 as follows:
20 21 0.2/4.2 x $25 x 50,400 = $60,000
22 (Fractional amount / Total requirement) x in-lieu fee x project area 23 24 Case Study: 66-unit apartment project (900 SF each, or total net area of 59,400 SF in the 25 entire project)
26 27 The applicant is obligated to provide 6.6 units affordable to lower income households (10 28 percent). The applicant could meet this obligation by rounding the 6.6 up to seven 29 affordable units or by providing six affordable units and paying an in-lieu fee equivalent 30 to 0.6 units. The affordable units would be rented to qualifying buyers at lower-income 31 rents (roughly $2,300) and the remaining units would rent at market rates. 32 33 Assuming the developer chose to pay the in-lieu fee, the amount would be $135,000. 34 This is essentially six-tenths of the “gap” between one market-rate unit and one 35 subsidized unit in the project. The cost is calculated by applying the unit cost of $25 per 36 square foot as follows:
37 38 0.6/6.6 x $25 x 59,400 = $135,000
39 (Fractional amount / Total requirement) x in-lieu fee x project area 40 41 Six to Nine Unit Projects
42 For projects with six (6) to nine (9) units either a full inclusionary unit is required or an in 43 lieu fee may be paid. Based on Table 1 in the KMA memorandum (see Attachment B, 44 page 2), the fees for rental units would range from $8.30 per square foot in a 6-unit project 45 to $22.20 per square foot in a 9-unit project. The fees for for-sale units would range from 46 $13.00 per square foot in a 6-unit project to $34.70 per square foot in a 9-unit project. 47 These requirements would primarily only be applied in the event small multi-family 48 projects or townhomes are proposed. It is expected that single family detached projects 49 of six to nine units will generally provide ADUs in lieu of meeting these requirements. The H.2.d

3 4 Custom Lot / Single Family Subdivision
5 For a subdivision in a zoning district that is RR, R-1, R-2, R-3, or R-6, an alternate means 6 of compliance provision has been provided to applicants. This alternate is to include 7 ADUs in 25 percent of the units rather than dedicating deed-restricted affordable units. 8 Based on cost, the ADU option is expected to be more attractive than dedicating 9 moderate-income for-sale units within the subdivision. 10 11 In subdivisions affordable housing is applicable in two scenarios, by providing 25% ADUs 12 of residences in a custom lot subdivision or in a Very High Fire Severity Zone (VHFSZ). 13 Recent CAL FIRE maps have been updated for the State responsibility areas. Moraga 14 Orinda Fire District (MOFD) will use the existing maps until local maps are adopted. 15 16 The developer does have the option of paying a fractional in-lieu fee, should they choose 17 to dedicate affordable units within their project. In such instances, the fees are due at 18 Final Map. The method and amount of the fee calculation is the same as was described 19 in the examples above. The fee represents a reasonable portion of the gap between the 20 Affordable Sale Price at the corresponding income level and the Market-Rate sales price 21 of For-Sale Housing.
22 23 The fractional fee option is not available to developers meeting the requirement through 24 ADUs. In other words, a 21-lot subdivision would need to include ADUs in six of the 25 homes, even though the 25 percent requirement yields 5.25 units. 26 27 Comparison of Other Cities
28 Staff conducted an analysis of in lieu fees and fractional in lieu fees for 21 East Bay 29 jurisdictions. Each jurisdiction varies in how it applies fees and at the threshold of how it 30 applies fees. Due to the sixth cycle, Housing Element, many jurisdictions are either re31 visiting or establishing in-lieu policies and fees. Clayton, Orinda, Lafayette and Danville 32 are currently in the process of updating or establishing the in lieu fees. Antioch, Hercules, 33 Martinez, Oakley, Pinole and Pittsburg are still working on their Housing Elements so the 34 in lieu policy and fees are not known at this time. San Pablo does not have in lieu fees as 35 the City meets affordable housing goals and most projects that are submitted have 36 affordable housing included. The remaining Cities that have inclusionary in lieu fees 37 adopted as first generation of fees are now in the process of updating, and re-considering 38 the approach to affordable housing fees.

MEMORANDUM
To: Cynthia Battenberg
Town of Moraga
From: Keyser Marston Associates, Inc.
Date: December 21, 2022
Subject: Inclusionary In-Lieu Fee Calculations
The following memorandum has been prepared for the Town of Moraga (Town) by Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. (KMA) to calculate an in-lieu fee pursuant to the Town’s proposed Affordable Housing Ordinance (AHO). Moraga Municipal Code (MMC) Section
8.180.050 D (proposed) provides for adoption of in-lieu fees for fractional inclusionary unit obligations. Projects with a fractional inclusionary unit requirement are eligible to either pay an in-lieu fee for the fractional unit or provide a whole inclusionary unit.
SUMMARY OF IN-LIEU FEE CALCULATION
In-lieu fees are calculated based on the gap between market-rate and affordable sales prices and rents pursuant to MMC 8.180.050 D. In-lieu fees are expressed per habitable square foot within the project. Applying in-lieu fees on a per square foot basis is permitted under the AHO, is a well-established approach used in many jurisdictions throughout the region and allows the amount of the fee to scale with unit size.
A. Projects from Six to Nine Units
Table 1 presents calculated in-lieu fees for projects from six to nine units in size. In-lieu fees reflect the gap between market and affordable prices and rents and the schedule of fractional inclusionary unit obligations for projects with six to nine units under MMC
8.180.040 (D), which phases in requirements for smaller projects.

(1) Excludes garages, parking area, common areas and common amenities, and other non-livable space.
B. Fractional Inclusionary Unit In-Lieu Fees for Larger Projects.
For projects with more than ten units that choose to meet fractional unit inclusionary requirements by paying an in-lieu fee, the amount is determined based on a “gross per square foot in-lieu fee” multiplied by the share of the inclusionary unit requirement to be satisfied with in-lieu fee payment, as shown in Table 2. The gross in-lieu fee reflects the full affordability gap, assuming no inclusionary units are provided within the project, and was calculated at $39 per square foot for for-sale units and $25 per square foot for rental units. This gross amount must be reduced to reflect the share of the inclusionary requirement to be satisfied with in-lieu fee payment, as shown in Table 2.

C. Custom Lot Subdivisions
For custom lot subdivisions, in-lieu fees are due at Final Map, while homes are built later. In this case, the in-lieu fee must be calculated based on an assumed habitable square footage. KMA recommends use of an estimated or assumed average square footage, as described in Table 3.

Table 3. Custom Lot Subdivisions
If the total habitable square footage in the development can reasonably be estimated at the time of Final Map, such reasonable estimate shall be used for the in-lieu fee calculation. Otherwise, the total habitable square footage shall be calculated based on the average unit size used for purposes of establishing the in-lieu fee multiplied by the number of buildable lots. Average unit sizes, based on the supporting market data used for establishing in-lieu fees, are:
For-Sale: 3,040 sq ft
Rental: 1,028 sq ft
SUPPORTING ANALYSIS
The following sections walk through the calculation of in-lieu fees.
Gross In-Lieu Fee Calculation for For-Sale Projects
The AHO specifies that the in-lieu fee for for-sale units “…should represent a reasonable portion of the gap between the Affordable Sales Price at the corresponding income level and the Market-Rate sales price of For-Sale housing….” KMA calculated this gap based on a review of market rate sales and an estimate of the affordable sales prices for comparable units. The analysis is summarized below.
To estimate the market rate sales price of a new unit in Moraga, KMA calculated the average sales price of units built since 2010 and sold since January 2019, using data from CoreLogic. There were 72 units that fit these criteria in Moraga, representing a mix of single family detached and attached or duplex units. The average number of bedrooms, unit size and sales prices are shown in Table 4.
Table 4. Average Price of Newer Units in Moraga Built Since 2010, Sold Last 4 Years (1/2019 - 11/2022)
Average Sales Price, Newer Units in Moraga $1,798,000
Average Number of Bedrooms, Newer Units in Moraga 3.96
Average Net Square Footage, Newer Units in Moraga 3,040 sq ft Source: CoreLogic
Average market rate sales prices for for-sale housing in Moraga is the first component of the for-sale affordability gap calculation.
KMA estimated the affordable sales price for a comparable unit based on AHO requirements. The pricing is set to be affordable to households earning the Moderate H.2.d

(1) Weighted to reflect the average of 3.96 bedrooms in the market rate unit sales data summarized in Table 4.
The for-sale affordability gap is the difference between the market rate sales price (Table 4) and the weighted average affordable sales prices (Table 5). The affordability gap represents the forgone revenue to the developer from setting aside a unit as affordable.
The calculation is shown in Table 6.
Table 6. For-Sale Affordability Gap
Market Price $1,798,000
Less: Affordable Price ($612,000)
Affordability Gap $1,186,000
Using the affordability gap, KMA calculated a per-square-foot in-lieu fee. The fee is calculated based on the onsite requirement (10% of units) and the average size of the market rate units (3,040 square feet). The calculation is shown in Table 7.

In-lieu fees for projects from six to nine units in size presented in Table 1 are based on the gross in-lieu fee per square foot in Table 7, adjusted for the phase in of the inclusionary unit requirement pursuant to MMC 8.180.040 (D). The supporting calculation of this phase in is provided in Appendix Table 1.

Gross In-Lieu Fee Calculation for Rental Projects
The AHO specifies that the in-lieu fee for rental units “should represent a reasonable portion of the gap between the Affordable Rent at the corresponding income level and the market-rate rent for a similar product type over the lifetime of the affordability term.” KMA calculated this gap based on a review of market rate rents and an estimate of the affordable rents for comparable units. Appendix Table 3 presents the calculations. The analysis is summarized below.
KMA reviewed current market rate rents in Moraga. Costar data indicate that nearly all Moraga apartment units were built in the 1960s and 1970s. The in-lieu fee analysis should be based on the estimated rental rates of newly built units that would be subject to the inclusionary requirement. To estimate the rent premium for new units with modern finishes and amenities, KMA compared market rents for new and old apartments in Walnut Creek, where this data is available. KMA calculated the percentage difference in rents between new and old units from the 1960s and 1970s and estimated that new units rent for approximately 50% more than the older units. KMA estimated rents for new market rate units in Moraga based on applying this 50% premium to existing rents for older units, as shown in Table 8.

The estimated market rate rents for new apartments in Moraga presented in Table 8 is the first component of the rental affordability gap calculation.
KMA calculated the affordable rent for a comparable unit using the average number of bedrooms from the market data and the requirements of the AHO. The rent is set to be affordable to households earning the maximum income limit for Low Income households in Contra Costa County, with 30% of income set aside for housing costs including rent and utilities. The results are summarized in Table 9.

The rental affordability gap is calculated based on annual difference between market rate and affordable rents in Table 10, divided by a capitalization rate of 4%, to identify forgone project value associated with setting aside a unit as affordable. The cap rate is based on the average for 2022 year-to-date for the Walnut Creek submarket, according to CoStar. The calculation is shown in Table 11.

Using the affordability gap, KMA calculated the gross in-lieu fee. The fee is calculated based on the affordability gap, the onsite requirement (10% of units), and the average size of the market rate units (1,028 square feet). The calculation is shown in Table 12.
