POLICY COMMITTEE STAFF REPORT
DATE: September 28, 2022
TO: Policy Committee/City Manager
FROM: Debbie Chamberlain, Community Development Director By: Vance Phillips, Chief Building Official
SUBJECT: Building Code Adoption

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends that the Policy Committee receive the staff report, discuss, deliberate and provide direction on the proposed Ordinance and direct Staff to bring the Ordinance Repealing and Replacing Chapter I, California Building Code, Chapter II, California Mechanical Code, Chapter III, California Plumbing Code, Chapter IV, California Electrical Code, Chapter V, California Residential Code, Chapter VIII, California Green Building Standards Code and Chapter IV, California Fire Code of Title C, Division C1 of the San Ramon Municipal Code with the 2022 California Code editions and adding Chapter X, California Existing Building Code, 2022 edition, to Title C, Division C1 of the San Ramon Municipal Code to the City Council for Introduction and Public Hearing on October 25, 2022.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
On July 1, 2022, the California Building Standards Commission (CBSC) published the 2022 edition of the Title 24 Codes, more commonly known as the California Building Standards Codes.

The California Building Standards Codes (CBSC) originate as part of a national code development process that is organized and published by the International Code Council (ICC), the International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officials (IAPMO) and the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA).

The CBSC conducted public hearings on code modifications for State agencies and State amendments that local jurisdictions are mandated to enforce. The CBSC adopted the 2022 California Code of Regulations, Title 24 and published these model codes on July 1, 2022. These codes regulate building construction in the State of California and all jurisdictions that are responsible for the enforcement of building regulations must now adopt the most recent California Code of Regulations or be mandated to accept by default the latest adopted version.

Staff is presenting this report to the City Council Policy Committee with a recommendation that the Committee direct staff to precede with the 2022 code adoption process and present the

5.1 Packet Pg. 6
AGENDA #5.1
Ordinance to the City Council for Introduction and Public Hearing at the October 25, 2022 City Council Meeting.

Recommended Amendments to the 2022 Building Code Specific to San Ramon Due to the City’s proximity to earthquake faults, and as a result of damage that was documented in past earthquakes, the following amendments provide for additional structural upgrades to the minimum provision provided for in the codes. These amendments apply to both the 2022 California Building Code and the 2022 California Residential Code.

The amendments to Building Code Section 1905.1.7 ACI 318 Section 14.1.4 address the problem of poor performance of plain or un-reinforced concrete footings. Amendments to Residential Building Code Table R602.10.4.5 and Section R602.10.4.5 limit the use of gypsum board bracing and Portland Cement Plaster bracing. These recommendations were made by the Structural Engineers Association of Southern California and the Los Angeles City Joint Task Force that investigated the poor performance of under-reinforced concrete footings and braced walls found after the Northridge earthquake.

The Mechanical Code is being amended by deleting Appendix Chapter A. This Appendix Chapter creates a checklist for residential plan review for HVAC system designs. Staff feel the paperwork created by this additional process in not necessary.

The Plumbing Code is being amended by adding the reference to Building Code Table 2902.1 for plumbing fixture count. The number and type of plumbing fixtures from the Building Code includes additional occupancy types that the Plumbing Code Table does not reference.

The Electrical Code is being amended by deleting section 89.108.4. Section 89.108.4 covers permit fees, permit applications and inspections and is proposed for deletion since they are covered by the City's Fees Resolution and the administrative provisions of the proposed Building Code.

Table R301.2(1) of the California Residential Code is being amended to include Climate and Geographic Design Criteria specific to San Ramon. The Residential Building Code is an international code and local jurisdictions are responsible for completing this data for their specific region.

The Existing Building Code, is being amended by deleting Sections 1.8.4, 1.8.5, 1.8.7 and 1.8.8 in Chapter 1, Division I, These Sections discussing permits, permit fees, application and inspections, Alternate materials design and testing and Appeals Board reference, and Chapter 1, Division II are proposed for deletion since they are covered by the City's Fees Resolution and the administrative provisions of the proposed Building Code.

The adoption of these codes will not apply to any permits issued or applied for prior to January 1, 2023. All construction activity with a permit issued prior to the adoption of these codes, will

5.1 Packet Pg. 7
AGENDA #5.1
be inspected using the prior adopted codes. Any applicant, at their option, may process under the new codes.

FISCAL ANALYSIS
Adoption of 2022 California Code of Regulations, Title 24, will not have a fiscal impact on the City. The Fee Resolution adopted by the City Council for plan check and inspection services includes provisions for additional staff training resulting from the changes in these codes as well as additional time needed for plan check and inspection resulting from changes to these codes.

STEPS FOLLOWING APPROVAL
The Ordinances will be taken to the City Council for Public Hearing on October 25, 2022, and if approved will become effective January 1, 2023.

POLICY COMMITTEE STAFF REPORT
DATE: September 28, 2022
TO: Policy Committee/City Manager
FROM: Debbie Chamberlain, Community Development Director By: Lauren Barr, Division Manager
SUBJECT: Draft Affordable Rental Housing Fee Wavier Policy

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Provide comments and feedback on the proposed Affordable Rental Housing Fee Wavier Policy for low and very low income affordable rental units associated with 100% affordable projects and if appropriate forward to the City Council for consideration.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
The General Plan Housing Element Program 10: Affordable Housing Development; and Program 11: Affordable Housing Funding are intended to promote production of affordable housing through financial and regulatory incentives, and promotes funding strategies for the development of affordable housing. Program 12 references the City’s Inclusionary Housing and In-Lieu Fee program. Program 14 of the Housing Element requires the City establish a “specific program for use of housing in-lieu fees—including timelines, milestones, and identification of housing sites—in order to ensure the timely construction of affordable housing units.” On October 26, 2021, the City Council approved Resolution No. 2021-122 adopting the Affordable Housing Trust Fund Policy for the use of these in-lieu housing fees. The Draft Affordable Rental Housing Fee Wavier Policy is intended to be a second funding strategy for 100% affordable projects that provide low and very low income rental units.

Draft Affordable Housing Fee Wavier Policy
While the adoption of the Affordable Housing Trust Fund Policy help clarify the use of housing fees for affordable projects, there is a need to provide additional tools to promote affordable housing production. The Draft Affordable Rental Housing Fee Wavier Policy (Draft Policy) is intended to provide additional financial incentives for the production of low income and very low income rental housing, associated with 100% affordable projects, through various City fee waiver options. The requirements helps the production of low and very low income units to address the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) and provide housing for lower income residents. While existing inclusionary standards go a long way in meeting RHNA needs, it is generally recognized that there is a need for additional tools,

5.3 Packet Pg. 22
AGENDA #5.3
such as fiscal incentives, to support increased production, particularly for low and very low income units. Rental housing has been specifically targeted by this policy because of the traditionally greater affordability levels associated with higher density rental housing when compared to the larger funding gaps associated with for-sale products. The Draft Policy has been developed to provide guidance on fee waivers for certain City Impact and Service Fees for the construction of low and very low affordable rental units in 100% affordable projects.

Local Funding Match Provisions
Local funding match resources are one tool for local jurisdictions to assist in the production of affordable housing by providing funding resources to close funding gaps in affordable housing projects. The Draft Policy and fees waivers would provide a second funding stream that would be a local match to support projects with affordable housing units. Local funding can also help affordable project qualify for tax credits and other grant opportunities for the production of affordable units. Currently local match opportunities are limited to funds from the Affordable Housing In-Lieu Fee and Commercial Linkage Fees collected from development project and consolidate in the in the Affordable Housing Trust Fund.

Fee waivers for the construction of low and very low affordable rental units would amount to the City providing a local match because the waiver of the fees is ultimately offset by City funding to provide the service for which the fee was originally established. In most cases, the cost of services is absorbed into General Fund expenses or in some cases is related to a specific fund for targeted uses such as traffic impacts or park facilities.

Eligibility and Project Qualifications for Fee Waivers
The following shall be required to be eligible for fee waivers per this policy:
 Submittal of a formal request letter for fee waiver, demonstrating compliance with the Policy objectives and number of low and very low income rental units that qualify for waivers.
 Fee waivers apply to Low and Very low income affordable rental units only.  Requires valid City approvals and would also to apply project’s eligible for by right construction with affordable deed restricted rental units consistent with the policy objectives.
 Low and Very low income units shall be split equally, or with a higher percentage of very low income rental units.
 Requires a City approved Affordable Housing Agreement prior to Building Permit issuance.
 Requires a minimum 55-year Affordability Restriction.  Requires all fee waiver units to be maintained as rental units for the term of affordability.  Fee waivers are to be considered a local funding match by the City for other funding opportunities and applications.

5.3 Packet Pg. 23
AGENDA #5.3
Fee Waivers for the Construction of Low and Very Low Affordable Rental Units The amount of the fee waiver, is tied to the percent of affordable rental units provided at the low and very low income levels in 100% affordable projects. The draft fee waivers are split between Impact Fees and Service Fees associated with processing construction permits. Service Fees may result in addition City costs associated with contract services. As such, staff is recommending to limit the maximum overall percentage for Service Fee Waivers to up to 25% of total units that qualify as low and very low income units for 100% affordable projects. For example, projects that are 100% low and very low units, the Service Fee Waiver would be limited to 25 percent. This cap on Service Fee Waivers will help to moderate fiscal impacts to current operating budgets, while still providing additional incentives for production of low and very low income rental units.

The following fees are proposed for consideration of fee waivers for the construction of low and very low income rental units:

Impact Fee Waiver options
 City Traffic Impact Fee
 School Age Child Care Fee
 Park and Recreation Facility Impact Fee
 Private Sector Art and Beautification Fee
 Open Space Development Impact Fee
 Specific Plan Recovery Fees
 General Plan Recovery Fee
 Zoning Ordinance Recovery Fee
 Tri Valley Transportation Development Fee. (Currently waived for Affordable Units) City Service Fee Waiver Options (up to 25% of total units that qualify as low and very low income)
 Building Permit Plan Check Fees
 Building Permit Inspection Fees
 Planning Plan Check Review Fees
 Engineering Plan Check Fees
 Engineering Inspection Fees
Case Study Example
An apartment project within the North Camino Ramon Specific Plan consisting of 100 units with structured parking, and is proposed at 100% affordable for low and very low income units. The unit sizes average 1,100 sf. and the total building square footage is 150,000 sf. The building permit valuation for the theoretical project is $35,400,000 with a 1,600,000 engineer’s estimate

 Building Permit Plan Check $156,315.81
 Building Permit Fees $278,680.88
 Planning Plan Check Review $1200
 Engineering Plan Check $49,250

Service Fee Wavier Match for 25 Units $146,625
Total Impact and Service fee waiver for 100% affordable project: $2,537,438 Calculation of Fee Waivers
Impact Fees and Service fees are calculated based on various methodologies including total qualified units, valuation, or square footage. Number of qualified units is a clear standard.

Valuation based fees shall be calculated based on the Building Division’s Fee estimate and prorated on per square foot basis for habitable space associated with the low and very low income units. Square footage calculations shall be based on the square footage of the qualified units and does not include common areas, hallways, utility areas, or other similar spaces, unless the project is 100% low and very low income units. In these situations, the project qualified for 100% waiver of qualified impact fees.

5.3 Packet Pg. 25
AGENDA #5.3
Staff is requesting feedback and recommendations to the Policy Committee from the Housing Advisory Committee on the proposed fee waiver policy and appropriateness of the fees identified for consideration.

HOUSING ADVISORY COMMITTEE
On September 22, 2022, Staff presented the Draft Policy to the Housing Advisory Committee (HAC). The HAC recommended the following additional consideration to the Policy:
 An additional Service Fee Waivers, up to 5% above the current 25% maximum for contractors and developers that meet certain Diversity, Equity and Inclusion requirements and/or Disadvantage Businesses Enterprise qualifications.

Additionally, the City should develop and implement specific standards to validate the qualifications of businesses seeking the additional Service Fee Waivers under this provision.
 A maximum cap on the Total Fee Waivers for any one project to limit overall impacts to City finances.

Following discussion, the HAC recommended 5-0 to recommend the Draft Policy with Committee comments to the City Council Policy Committee.

FISCAL ANALYSIS
The fiscal impacts associated with this policy are variable based on the development proposal received. In the case of a qualifying 100% affordable project, 100% of the Impact Fees and 25% of Service Fees associated with this policy would be waived, which could result in more substantial impacts to some program areas depending on the nature of the project and location.

The waiving of fees would qualify as local match for potential tax credit and grant funding.

Currently there are no new 100% affordable projects in the 5-year projections. A Concept Review for the Morgan’s Masonry considered a 100% affordable project; however, formal application have yet to be filed. The conversion of this potential project to 100% affordable may impact revenues projections in year 5 depending on application submittals. Any new project would include unanticipated revenues along with the proportionate fee waivers. In addition, the City Council may opt to reimburse the cost of any specific program fee waiver from the Affordable Housing Trust Fund, as appropriate.

STEPS FOLLOWING APPROVAL
City Council consideration of the proposed fee waiver policy.

1 Draft Affordable Rental Housing Fee Waiver Policy
The purpose of the Affordable Rental Housing Fee Waiver Policy is to provide guidance on fee waivers for low and very low units in rental projects that are 100% affordable. Currently residential rental projects are required to provide low and very low income units associated with the City’s Inclusionary Housing standards. Low Income is consider 80% or less of Area Median Income, Very Low Income is consider 50% or less of Area Median Income. The requirements helps the production of low and very low income units to address the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) and provide housing for lower income residents. While the inclusionary standards go a long way in meeting RHNA needs, it is generally recognized that there is a need for additional tools, such as fiscal incentives, to support increased production, particularly for low and very low income units.

The City has discretion to waive certain City Impact and Service Fees that can assist in the production and fiscal viability of all affordable housing projects with low and very low income units. In addition to the fee waivers serving as a fiscal incentive for affordable units, the monetary value of these waivers can also serve as the City’s local match for additional affordable housing grant funding. The Policy includes guidance on:
 Local Funding Match Provisions
 Eligibility and Project Qualifications for Fee Waivers  Fee Waivers for the Construction of Low and Very Low Affordable Rental Units

1. Impact Fee Waivers

2. City Service Fee Waivers
 Calculation of Fee Waivers
 Reimbursement of Fee Waivers
Local Funding Match Provisions
Local match is important for many project to qualify for various affordable housing funding and grants. Local match can be structure in several way from fee waivers to subsidies and loans. The City has an existing policy for the use of the Affordable Housing Trust Fund which is intended to support the implementation of housing programs and production of affordable units. In the past, these fees have been used for local match to support grant and other affordable housing funding applications. The value of the potential fee waivers associated with this policy is that they would also be considered a local match to support projects with affordable housing units and potentially aid in satisfying RHNA numbers, particularly low and very ow income units.

Eligibility and Project Qualifications for Fee Waivers
Development Projects with 100% affordable rental units will qualify for waivers of the fees associated with low and very low-income affordable rental units, consistent with local affordability standards. The following shall be required to be eligible for fee waivers per this policy:
