Agenda Item Title
Part Three of Five Reports: Receive and Discuss Annual Reports from City of Sonoma Community Services Providers
Summary
This is a continuation of the annual reports provided by the City of Sonoma's recreation and community services partners. On March 1, 2023, we started hearing from our partners, due to the amount of time it took to get through the presentations and questions, City staff is expanding the presentations across five possible six meetings with the reports wrapping up on May 17, 2023. Vintage House Sonoma, Sonoma League for Historic Preservation and the Sonoma Valley Historical Society will be presenting their annual reports during the meeting. Each entity has been asked to prepare a 5-7 minute report to be followed by questions and answer period.
BACKGROUND
The City of Sonoma has a long history of providing funding to various recreation and community service initiatives through annual grant funding, one-time investments in facilities, financial support for leases, and/or low annual lease rates for property or buildings. In addition, the City has traditionally supported many community events and activities by waiving or reducing city fees and at times, providing direct financial support. The City also has supported non-profits through the years for one-time initiatives or opportunities. The City’s support for a variety of recreation and community services is an important component in ensuring a high quality of life for its residents.
In 2017, the City Council directed staff to create a new program that would take the City's hybrid approach and formalize it, by providing multi-year contracts and/or lease agreements to non-profits delivering core recreation and environment services to the community, support for heritage/legacy community events through fee waivers, and an opportunity to fund/support unique projects that are impactful to the community through a discretionary reserve fund.
On March 15, 2018, this new program "Recreation and Community Services Program and Funding and Policy Guidelines" centralized these partnerships in a manner to allow them to be visible to the community especially since many of these investments have occurred through the years. The City Council reviewed and revised the program on August 3, 2022 (Attachment A).
The purpose of the Recreation and Community Services Program is to centralize and bring together the many investments that the City provides. This updated Program has the following five components:
1. Multi-year contracts with key non-profit organizations which provide core recreation and community service programs where there has been a long City partnership;
2. Fee waivers and financial support for events that celebrate our community’s heritage and history;
Agenda Item #6.4:
3. Fee waivers for community events that celebrate seasonal events and bring our community together; and,
4. Discretionary funding to support unique projects that are impactful to the community/City that may arise during the year without tapping into the City’s reserves; and
5. Enhancement of a “Recreation and Community Services” webpage on the City’s website to provide information and links regarding this program, our partners and the City’s investments.
In many cities, there are city employees and a dedicated Recreation and Community Service Department that deliver youth programs, athletic programs, senior services, arts and theater, and the facilities that operate these programs. In Sonoma, these core recreational programs are provided by non-profits; the City has not provided these programs directly. For many decades, the City has provided annual grant funding to key non-profits which over time became known as the “Tier 1” non-profits. Due to these long-term partnerships, the City and its residents have experienced cost savings through the avoidance of creating a City department with appropriate staffing devoted to recreational and community programs. By leveraging the talents, skills, networks, and resources already available in the community, the City has invested in recreation and community programs for decades. This approach has proven to be a cost effective, efficient, and flexible method to meet the changing needs of the community. Non-profit organizations which provide these recreational and community programs are expert at delivering some traditional services provided by city governments elsewhere.
During FY22/23 budget session, City council members requested a deeper dive into these partnerships, to gain a better understanding of the services being provided as well as a better understanding of the value of the support the City provides. The value is not just the monetary contributions but also in financial support of leases and or low annual lease rates of public property.
The agreements between the City and the community partners contain clauses requesting annual reports to City Council. This year City staff has arranged over a series of City Council meetings to have each of the community partners present an annual report. They were each provided an outline of items to cover and staff requested they prepare a 5–7-minute presentation.
Below is the list of items that were asked to be covered during the report to City Council.
Introduction & Background including:
• date of formation
• history
• mission
Populations and number of individuals served annually. If available, please include:
• demographic data or analysis of age, race, and socioeconomic information of your customers/clients
• equity-focused programs, practices, outreach strategies, tools, and/or policies that make your programming and services accessible to community members with access and functional needs, language barriers, and/or who need financial assistance.
Financial Information
• High level overview of revenue/grants and expenses
• How the City’s contribution supports your organization and mission • Any significant expenditures or upgrades to facilities/property planned Agenda Item #6.4:
Community Partnerships
• Highlight any partnerships within the community.
What’s New?
• Discuss any new programs, initiatives and instructors or staff.
Attached to the staff report is a copy of each of the presenting community partners current agreements. The current contracts with Vintage House include both a reinstated least agreement and a 3- year community partner agreement that is scheduled to sunset at the end of fiscal year 23/24. The Sonoma League for Historic Preservation has a lease agreement and a 1st amendment to the lease agreement that extended the agreement to 2030. The Sonoma Valley Historical Society has two agreements with the City of Sonoma one for the use of the Marcy House and another for the use and operation of Depot Park Museum. The Marcy House agreement expires in 2024. City staff will be bringing forth an agenda item this spring for reinstatement of the lease agreement for the Depot Park Museum. After each presentation City Council will have an opportunity to ask questions of the organization.
Additional action can occur during the annual budget discussions during the review of the Community Services budget item.

Adopt a Resolution Authorizing Participation in the TAWWC Opioid Settlement and Authorizing the Interim City Manager to Execute the Related Participation Agreements Summary
On July 22, 2021, a settlement was announced in a multi-district federal litigation based in Ohio against opioid manufacturers and distributors. Over 4,000 lawsuits have been filed against opioid manufacturers and distributors in both federal and state courts. On December 15, 2021, the City of Sonoma City Council approved Resolution #89-2021, authorizing the City Manager to enter into the settlement agreements with McKesson Corporation, Cardinal Health, Inc., Amerisource Bergen Corporation, Johnson and Johnson, Jannsen Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Ortho McNeil-Jannsen Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
The proposed Resolution would authorize the Interim City Manager to enter into the settlement agreement with TEVA, Allergan, Walmart, Walgreens and CVS, referred to as the TAWWC settlement.
The estimated payout for this settlement to states and local subdivisions is a maximum of $20.2 billion, California's allocation is 9% or $1.8 billion. Of this share, 15% is allocated to state government, 15% to litigation subdivisions, and 70% to an "Abatement Fund" for qualifying cities. Similar to the prior settlement, the total amount distributed to each qualifying city depends on how many subdivisions decide to participate in the TAWWC settlement. A "critical mass" of subdivisions accepting the terms of the settlement is required to be met prior to the settlement distributions going into effect. There is no current timeline for payment distribution, although it is estimated to be sooner than the previous settlement distribution timeline as processes have been established.
It is anticipated that the distribution amounts will be $245,000, which is approximately 70-80% of the prior settlement allocations. The previous settlement payout was $26 billion, with the City of Sonoma's maximum allocation to be approximately $350,000 over 11-18 years.
Detailed information about the Settlements, including each Settlement Agreement can be found here:
https://nationalopioidsettlement.com
The settlements will allow for a broad range of approved abatement uses by state and local governments. Developed in consultation with the nation’s leading public health experts, the list of pre-approved uses includes a wide range of intervention, treatment, education, and recovery services so that state and local governments can decide what will best serve their communities.
Despite not participating in the litigation against the opioid distributors and manufacturers, the City has two options. It can:
Agenda Item #7.3:
1. opt-in to the settlement; or
2. not to opt-in to the settlement
If the City opts-in to the settlement, it must release its claims against the opioid distributors and manufacturer participating in the settlement. In exchange, the City will receive funds(or direct the funds to be paid directly to the County), which can be used to combat opioid abuse in the City. Under the terms of the settlement, the City would have to report how it spends funds received from the settlement.
By not acting, the City will not be a participant in the settlement. By not entering into the settlement agreements and allocation agreements, the City would retain the ability to pursue its own litigation against these opioid distributors and manufacturer. As the City will not be pursuing its own litigation, we recommend the City participate in these settlement and allocation documents.
Recommended Council Action
Adopt a resolution authorizing participation in the TAWWC Opioid Settlement and authorizing the Interim City Manager to execute the related participation agreement.
Alternative Actions

Financial Impact
The City may receive up to $245,000 (estimated high based on 100% local government participation in California), by participating in the TAWWC Settlement Agreement over multiple years.

WHEREAS, the United States is facing an ongoing public health crisis of opioid abuse, addiction, overdose, and death. The State of California and California local governments spend billions of dollars each year to address the direct consequences of this crisis; and WHEREAS since 2017, state and local governments in California and around the United States have been pursuing litigation against certain manufacturers, distributors, and retailers of opioid pharmaceuticals (the “Opioid Defendants”) in an effort to hold the Opioid Defendants financially responsible for the impact of the Opioid Epidemic on the City of Sonoma (“the City”) and resources necessary to combat the opioid epidemic; and WHEREAS, negotiations to settle claims against several of the Opioid Defendants, specifically two manufacturers, Teva and Allergan, and three pharmacies, Walgreens, Walmart and CVS (the “Settling Defendants”) have been ongoing for several years; and WHEREAS, negotiations with the Settling Defendants have resulted in proposed nationwide settlements of state and local government claims to settle the litigation; and WHEREAS, the proposed terms of those proposed nationwide settlements have been set forth in the Distributors Master Settlement Agreement and the J&J Master Settlement Agreement (collectively “Settlement Agreements”); and WHEREAS, copies of the Settlement Agreements as well as summary of the main terms of the Settlement Agreements, the deadlines for submitting the Participation Agreements to the Settlement Agreements and the MDL Court’s Order setting deadlines for any Plaintiff who declines to enter into the Settlement Agreements, have been provided to the Council with this Resolution; and
WHEREAS, the Settlement Agreements provide, among other things, for the payment of a certain sum to settling government entities in California including to the State of California and Participating Subdivisions upon occurrence of certain events as defined in the Settlement Agreements (“California Opioid Funds”); and
WHEREAS, California local governments as well as the attorneys representing those local governments have engaged in extensive discussions with the State Attorney General’s Office (“AGO”) as to how the California Opioid Funds will be allocated, which has resulted in the Proposed California State-Subdivision Agreement Regarding Distribution and Use of Settlement Funds- Distributor Settlement and the Proposed California State-Subdivision Agreement Regarding Distribution and Use of Settlement Funds- collectively the “Allocation Agreements,” which are agreements between all of the entities identified in the Allocation Agreements; and Agenda Item #7.3:

WHEREAS, any city that is an Eligible Local Government will be allocated its Local Allocation share only when it becomes a Participating Subdivision by signing the Participation Agreements to the Settlements. The Local Allocation share for a city that is a Participating Subdivision will be paid to the county in which the city is located, rather than to the city, so long as: (a) the county is a Participating Subdivision, and (b) the City has not advised the Settlement Fund Administrator that it requests direct payment at least 60 days prior to a Payment Date as defined in the Settlement Agreements.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of Sonoma does hereby approves and authorizes the City Manager to do everything necessary and appropriate to settle and release the City’s claims against the Settling Defendants in exchange for the consideration set forth in the Settlement Agreements and Allocation Agreements including taking the following measures:

Agenda Item Title
Consider Adopting a Resolution establishing Housing In-Lieu Fees pursuant to the Inclusionary Housing Ordinance for Fractional Inclusionary Units and Small Residential Projects, and pursuant to the City’s Residential Component ordinance, with a finding that the adoption of this resolution establishing housing in-lieu fees is not a “Project” under the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Sections 15378(b)(4) and 15061(b)(3).
Summary
In January 2023, the City contracted with Keyser Marston Associates (KMA) to prepare an updated analysis to the 2018 housing and commercial fee study commissioned by the City of Sonoma. The update was requested to support Housing In-Lieu Fees required under the City’s revised Inclusionary Housing Ordinance adopted on July 7, 2021, and the Residential Component ordinance the City Council adopted in March 1, 2023. The following are development scenarios under which these Housing In-Lieu Fees may be applied:
1. If the 25% inclusionary housing requirement for a new residential development results in requiring a fractional unit of below 0.5, the developer may pay a fractional in-lieu fee instead of rounding up to the next whole number and providing that affordable unit on site. For example, a 13 unit development would be required to provide 3.25 affordable units and therefore the developer could opt to pay a fractional in-lieu fee for the 0.25 affordable units required (and build the other 3).
2. If a residential project consists of 4 or fewer units, the developer may pay an in-lieu fee instead of providing the affordable housing unit or units.
3. Where a new commercial development in Mixed Use or certain Commercial Zones meets particular requirements, upon approval from the Planning Commission, the developer may choose not to build the required Residential Component of the development and may voluntary pay an in-lieu fee based on the square footage of the Residential Component the developer would otherwise be required to build. If the developer proposed constructing a portion of the required Residential Component, the fee may be paid for the balance of the required residential square footage.
Background
On July 7, 2021, the City’s Inclusionary Housing Ordinance was revised and took effect to require the following Below Market Rate unit requirements in new residential development.
Rental Projects:
• 5% Extremely Low Income (ELI)
• 10% Very Low Income (VLI)
• 10% Low Income (LI)
Ownership Projects:
Agenda Item #8.1:
• 5% Low Income (LI)
• 10% Moderate Income (M)
• 10% Middle Income (MI)
In the implementation of the Inclusionary Ordinance, there were two scenarios where fees could be applied:
• A development containing four or fewer parcels or units shall pay a fee pursuant to SMC § 19.44.030 - In-Lieu Fees; and
• Fractional Units. When the application of the percentages specified above results in a number that includes a fraction, the fraction shall be rounded up to the next whole number if the fraction is 0.50 or more. If the result includes a fraction below 0.50, the developer shall have the option of rounding up to the next whole number and providing the affordable unit on-site, or paying an in lieu fee instead of providing an additional affordable unit.
For projects of four or fewer units, the attached KMA analysis recommends phasing in a full in lieu fee, which could be up to $97/sf for For Sale units, and $110/sf for Rental Units, in the following manner:
• For 1, 2, 3 or 4 units $25 /SF for both Rental and For Sale For the Fractional Unit, KMA recommends multiplying the fraction of the unit owed by $97/SF for For Sale, and $110/SF for Rental units.
The Residential Component Ordinance (in certain Commercial and Mixed-Use zoning districts), adopted on March 1, 2023, requires that a residential component be built equal to 100% of the proposed commercial floor area within a project. The ordinance allows for an inlieu fee option if a developer opts not to construct the residential component. The in-lieu fee per square foot is multiplied by the square footage of the required residential component that is not built. If a portion of the residential component is built, a fee may be paid based upon the balance of the residential square footage required.
The KMA analysis for the Residential Component Ordinance determined that an in-lieu fee of $93.50/SF multiplied by the required Residential Component square footage, or balance thereof, could be charged. For ease of facilitation of this requirement, the Council may reasonably round up the fee to $100/SF.

RESOLUTION _____ 2023
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF SONOMA ESTABLISHING HOUSING IN-LIEU FEES PURSUANT TO THE
INCLUSIONARY HOUSING ORDINANCE AND RESIDENTIAL COMPONENT ORDINANCE IN THE SONOMA
DEVELOPMENT CODE
WHEREAS, the California Legislature has declared that there is a severe shortage of affordable housing and has changed laws to expedite the local residential development process, including regulations requiring the modification of local regulations to streamline housing development and for clarity; and WHEREAS, on March 1, 2023, the City amended its local regulatory scheme to facilitate the construction of housing to comply with State law through the Residential Component Ordinance 3-23, which requires development within certain C and MX zoning districts to construct a residential component equal in floor area to the proposed commercial floor area, and which allows option for a housing in-lieu fee to be paid for any and all portions of the residential component the developer voluntarily chooses not to construct; and
WHEREAS, on July 7, 2021, the City revised its Inclusionary Housing requirements to require 25% of new residential projects to meet Affordability Requirements, and under which, Housing In-Lieu Fees were permitted to be paid if application of the Inclusionary percentages resulted in a fractional unit below
0.5, and also in the case of projects of four or fewer residential units or parcels; and WHEREAS, the Interim Planning and Community Services Director has submitted a report prepared by Keyser Marston Associates (KMA), which updates KMA’s 2018 fee nexus study and further analyzes facts necessary to support adoption of reasonable in-lieu fees for fractional inclusionary units and small residential projects pursuant to the City’s Inclusionary Housing Ordinance, and an in-lieu fee for the Residential Component Ordinance for certain commercial properties (the KMA Housing In-Lieu Fee Study); and
WHEREAS, all housing in-lieu fees collected through implementation of these two ordinances will be held in the City’s Affordable Housing Trust Fund to be used for the future construction, rehabilitation or preservation of affordable rental and ownership housing in the City of Sonoma and to enhance the public welfare by promoting the use of available land for the development of housing that would be available to low- and moderate-income households; and
WHEREAS, the City Council held a noticed public hearing on April 3, 2023 to consider the KMA Housing In-Lieu Fee Study, which Study was available for public review in advance of the hearing, and the proposed housing in-lieu fees.

MEMORANDUM
To: Laura Simpson, Interim Planning & Community Services Director City of Sonoma
From: Keyser Marston Associates, Inc.
Date: March 23, 2023
Subject: In-Lieu Fees for Fractional Inclusionary Units, Small Residential Projects, and the Residential Component
The following memorandum was prepared for the City of Sonoma by Keyser Marston Associates, Inc., (KMA) to support adoption of in-lieu fees for fractional inclusionary units and small residential projects pursuant to the City’s inclusionary housing program, and an in-lieu fee for the proposed amendment to the Residential Component zoning requirement for certain commercial properties. This memorandum presents KMA’s findings.
SUMMARY OF FINDINGS
In-lieu fees for the inclusionary program are expressed per habitable square foot within the project. Applying in-lieu fees on a per square foot basis allows the amount of the fee to scale with unit size and is a well-established approach used in many jurisdictions. Inlieu fees for the Residential Component requirement are expressed per square foot of Required Residential Component, as specified in the proposed zoning amendment.
A. Fractional Inclusionary Units In-Lieu Fee
When the application of the 25% inclusionary percentage results in a number that includes a fraction below 0.50, the developer has the option of providing the affordable unit onsite or paying an in-lieu fee for the fractional unit owed. For projects that choose to meet the fractional unit inclusionary requirements by paying an in-lieu fee, the amount is determined based on a per square foot “Full” in-lieu fee multiplied by the share of the inclusionary unit requirement to be satisfied with in-lieu fee payment. The Full in-lieu fee reflects the entire affordability gap assuming no inclusionary units are provided within the Agenda Item #8.1:

project. The Full in-lieu fees are calculated based on the onsite inclusionary requirements and the gaps between market-rate and affordable sales prices and rents.

To calculate the fractional unit in-lieu fees, the Full in-lieu fee amounts must be reduced to reflect the share of the inclusionary requirement to be satisfied with in-lieu fee payment, as shown in Table 2.

Appendix Table 1 provides a sample calculation.
B. Small Projects (Four or Fewer Units) In-Lieu Fee
The City’s inclusionary ordinance allows projects with four or fewer units to pay an in-lieu fee instead of providing affordable units. When establishing inclusionary housing in-lieu fees for small residential projects (particularly one- or two-unit projects), it is typically advised that the in-lieu fee be set at a level below the maximum supported by a residential nexus analysis. This is because, for one- and two-unit projects, providing onsite inclusionary units is not generally a true compliance option; therefore, it is recommended that the fee be set at a level consistent with the requirements of a mitigation impact fee.
KMA prepared a residential nexus analysis for the City of Sonoma as part of a prior work effort completed in February 2018. The nexus analysis quantifies the increase in demand for affordable housing generated by new market rate housing and then estimates the cost to mitigate the increased need for affordable housing. To estimate nexus maximums for the purpose of this in-lieu fee analysis, KMA prepared updated mitigation costs and applied them to the demand estimates from the 2018 analysis. The results are presented in Table 3.

Source: February 2018 Residential Nexus Analysis, prepared for the City of Sonoma by KMA.
It is recommended that the City’s in-lieu fee for one- or two-unit projects be set at a level below these nexus maximums. The City might consider a phasing in of the in-lieu fee by project size, where the in-lieu fee per square foot increases with the number of units in the project. The fee for one- and two-unit projects should be set below the nexus maximums, while the fees for three- and four-unit projects could exceed the nexus maximums. An example of this type of phasing in is shown in Table 4 below. The Full inlieu fees presented in Table 1 and shown again in Table 4 represent the estimated cost of complying with the ordinance onsite.
Table 4. Sample Phasing-In of In-Lieu Fees for Projects with Four or Fewer Units Number of Units in Project For-Sale Rental Nexus
One Unit $25 /SF $25 /SF below nexus max
Two Units $25 /SF $25 /SF below nexus max
Three Units $50 /SF $50 /SF above nexus max
Four Units $75 /SF $75 /SF above nexus max
Full In-Lieu Fee $97 /SF $110 /SF
Per net habitable sf. Excludes garages, parking area, common areas and common amenities, and other non-livable space.
The above table is just one example of a phasing-in approach. Again, it is typically advised that the fees on one- and two-unit projects be set below the residential nexus maximums. Fees for larger projects, in this case three- and four-unit projects, are generally not constrained by the nexus maximums.
C. Residential Component In-Lieu Fee
The City's Zoning Code requires parcels zoned for Mixed Use, and parcels one-half acre and larger zoned for Commercial and Commercial Gateway provide a "Residential Component" within the project in an amount equal to the square footage of commercial development. The City is considering an amendment that allows for the voluntary Agenda Item #8.1:
To: Laura Simpson, Interim Planning Director March 23, 2023 Subject: In-Lieu Fees Page 4
001-002; jf
19331.004
payment of an in-lieu fee for the residential development in certain circumstances. The Residential Component would be subject to the inclusionary ordinance. Forgoing the residential development would therefore result in a loss of new inclusionary units. The inlieu fee is based on the affordable units not produced if the Residential Component is not included in the project.
Residential Component fee revenues would be deposited into the Housing Trust Fund, which is earmarked for the advancement and development of affordable housing.
Establishing the in-lieu fee based on the loss of affordable units is consistent with the use of the fee revenue.
As specified in the proposed zoning amendment, in-lieu fees for the Residential Component are expressed per square foot of Required Residential Component. Per City staff, the Required Residential Component in the ordinance is expressed based on gross residential square footage, which includes common areas and amenity spaces, but does not include parking garages or parking spaces.

SUPPORTING ANALYSES
The following sections walk through the calculation of the in-lieu fees presented above.
A. Full In-Lieu Fee Calculation for For-Sale Projects
KMA calculated the Full in-lieu fee based on a review of recent market rate sales and an estimate of the affordable sales prices for comparable units. The analysis is summarized below and in Appendix Table 2.
To estimate the market rate sales price of a new unit in Sonoma, KMA calculated the median sales price of units sold since January 2022, using data for the City of Sonoma from CoreLogic. There were 333 units that sold during this time, representing a mix of single family detached and attached units. Using the median sales price for all units in Sonoma is a conservative estimate of sales prices for new units, as newer units typically sell for a premium over older units. The median number of bedrooms, unit size and sales prices are shown in Table 6.
Table 6. Median Price of Units Sold in City of Sonoma Since January 2022 Median Sales Price $1,050,000
Median Number of Bedrooms 3.00 bedrooms
Median Net Square Footage 1,606 sq ft
Source: CoreLogic
The median market rate sales prices for for-sale housing in the City of Sonoma is the first component of the for-sale affordability gap calculation.
The City’s Inclusionary Housing program requires for-sale projects to set aside 10% of units at prices affordable to Middle Income (up to 160% of Area Median Income (AMI)), 10% at Moderate Income (up to 120% of AMI), and 5% at Low Income (up to 80% AMI).
When establishing an in-lieu fee, the affordable prices should be calculated in a manner consistent with the pricing of inclusionary units that are built to comply with the program.
Therefore, KMA estimated the affordable sales prices for a unit comparable to the median market rate unit based on the City’s inclusionary housing requirements and the methodology employed by Rise Housing Solutions, which administers the City’s program and calculates the City’s inclusionary sales prices. Appendix Table 6 provides the supporting calculations, including illustrating the methodology and documenting the assumptions.
The pricing is set to be affordable to households with 35% of income set aside for housing costs (30% for Low Income households). Housing costs include mortgage payments, property taxes, insurance, HOA dues, maintenance and utilities. Per City Agenda Item #8.1:
To: Laura Simpson, Interim Planning Director March 23, 2023 Subject: In-Lieu Fees Page 6
001-002; jf
19331.004
policy, the Moderate and Low Income pricing levels are set at 110% AMI and 70% AMI to be consistent with California Health & Safety Code. California Health & Safety Code does not include the Middle Income category and Rise Housing has not calculated prices for this income category. For the purposes of this analysis, KMA selected the midpoint of the income range, 140% of AMI, for pricing the units.
Table 7 presents the affordable sales prices for the three income categories, and the weighted average sales price based on the inclusionary obligation.

B. Full In-Lieu Fee Calculation for Rental Projects
KMA calculated the Full in-lieu fee for rentals 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 asking rents in Sonoma. There were three projects with rental units advertised at the time of our analysis. One was built in 2020 and the others two were recently renovated. There is one project in the development process in Sonoma for which programmatic details were available. To supplement this data, KMA analyzed effective rent data for newer apartment units in Santa Rosa (effective rents include incentives and other discounts from asking rents). The rental data is summarized in Appendix Table 4. KMA’s estimate of current average market rent for new units in Sonoma is shown in Table 10.

Effective Market Rate Rent, New Units in Sonoma 1.8 1,000 $2,700 The estimated market rate rent for new apartments in Sonoma presented in Table 10 is the first component of the rental affordability gap calculation.
The City’s Inclusionary Housing program requires rental projects to set aside 10% of units at rents affordable to Low Income (up to 80% of Area Median Income (AMI)), 10% at Very Low Income (up to 50% of AMI), and 5% at Extremely Low Income (up to 30% AMI). KMA estimated the affordable rents for a unit comparable to the market rate unit based on the City’s inclusionary housing requirements and the methodology employed by Rise Housing Solutions. The rents are set to be affordable to households with 30% of income set aside for housing costs, which includes rents and utilities. Consistent with California Health & Safety Code, Low Income rents are set at 60% of Area Median Income (AMI), Very Low at 50% AMI, and Extremely Low at 30% AMI. The results are summarized in Table 11. The supporting calculations are presented in Appendix Table 3.

The rental affordability gap is calculated based on the annual difference between market rate and affordable rents in Table 12, divided by a capitalization rate of 4.2%, to identify forgone project value associated with setting aside a unit as affordable. The capitalization rate is based on the market capitalization rate for the Santa Rosa submarket (which includes Sonoma), according to CoStar as of February 2023. The calculation is shown in Table 13.

C. Updated Mitigation Costs for 2018 Residential Nexus Analysis KMA prepared a residential nexus analysis for the City of Sonoma as part of a prior work effort completed in February 2018. The nexus analysis quantifies the increase in demand for affordable housing generated by new market rate housing and then estimates the cost to mitigate the increased need for affordable housing. The mitigation costs represent the cost to provide new affordable housing units and are based on affordability gaps for new affordable housing. To estimate nexus maximums for the purpose of the small project in-lieu fee, KMA prepared updated mitigation costs and applied them to the demand estimates from the 2018 analysis.
Development Costs. The mitigation costs assume that the City will provide funding assistance for the development of affordable rental units. To estimate the development costs of affordable rental units, KMA reviewed tax credit applications for recent affordable projects in Sonoma County. Development costs for the most relevant projects are summarized in Appendix Table 8. For the purposes of the mitigation cost analysis, prevailing wages are assumed because the project receives financial assistance from the City. Based on the review of recent projects summarized in Appendix Table 8, KMA estimates that a new affordable multi-family tax-credit apartment unit in the City of Sonoma would have a total development cost of approximately $715,000. Details of this estimate are shown in Appendix Table 7.
Unit Values. Unit values are based upon the funding sources assumed to be available for the project. For the Extremely Low, Very Low, and Low-Income rental units, the funding sources include permanent debt financing supported by the project’s operating income, a deferred developer fee, and equity generated by 4% federal low income housing tax credits. For the Moderate-Income rental units, the funding sources include permanent debt financing supported by the project’s operating income, a deferred developer fee and developer equity supported by the remaining project value after debt financing. Details for these calculations are presented in Appendix Table 7.

Affordability Gaps. The affordability gap is the difference between the cost of developing an affordable unit and the unit value based on the restricted affordable rent.
The resulting affordability gaps are shown in Table 15.

To calculate the updated maximum nexussupported fee levels, the affordability gaps are multiplied by the demand for new affordable housing generated by the market rate development and divided by the square footage of the market rate units. The calculations are shown in Appendix Table 9 and the results are summarized in Table 16.

D. Residential Component Calculation
The City's Zoning Code requires parcels zoned for Mixed Use, and parcels one half acre and larger zoned for Commercial and Commercial Gateway provide a "Residential Component" within the project in an amount equal to the square footage of commercial development. The City is considering an amendment that allows for the voluntary payment of an in-lieu fee for the residential development in certain circumstances. The units in the Residential Component would be subject to the inclusionary housing ordinance. Forgoing the residential development would therefore result in a loss of new inclusionary units. The in-lieu fee is based on the affordable units not produced if the Residential Component is not included in the project. It is assessed based on the square footage of the required Residential Component. Any funds collected through the Residential Component in-lieu fee would be put into the City’s Housing Trust Fund, earmarked for the advancement and development of affordable housing.
Agenda Item #8.1:

The in-lieu fee for the Residential Component is based on the Full In-Lieu Fee for Rental Units. For the purpose of estimating the fee, it is assumed that the residential units built onsite in mixed use projects in Sonoma would more typically be rental units than forsale. The Full In-Lieu Fee is estimated per habitable square foot, while the Residential Component in-lieu fee would be assessed per gross square foot of required residential development. A simple conversion must be made to the Full In-Lieu Fee in order to apply it to the Residential Component. Appendix Table 5 walks through the conversion using a hypothetical project with 10,000 square feet of commercial development, for ease of understanding the arithmetic. The steps are summarized below.
A project with 10,000 square feet of commercial development that is subject to the Residential Component requirement would be required to also provide 10,000 square feet of gross residential development onsite or voluntarily pay an in-lieu fee if the development meets certain criteria. The residential development would be subject to the inclusionary housing ordinance. If the commercial project does not provide the Residential Component, however, then the inclusionary units are not provided as well.
The in-lieu fee for the inclusionary units not provided is estimated by the Full In-Lieu Fee for rental units at $110 per habitable square foot (Appendix Table 3). A typical rental building efficiency of 85% is assumed to convert gross residential square footage to net habitable square footage for rental units (gross residential square footage includes common areas and amenity spaces, but does not include parking garages or parking spaces). In the case of our example, this results in 8,500 square feet of habitable square footage. At $110 per square foot, the total in-lieu fee owed for the forgone inclusionary units is $935,000 for the project. Applying this total fee owed to the full 10,000 square feet of gross residential square footage (the required Residential Component) results in an in-lieu fee of $93.50 per square foot of required Residential Component.
Table 17. Residential Component In-lieu Fee
Per Square Foot of Required Residential
Component for Commercial Projects
In-Lieu Fee $93.50 /SF
If a project provides some residential units onsite, but not in an amount equal to the Required Residential Component, the project would owe the residential component inlieu fee for the portion of the Required Residential Component that is not built. For example, if the Required Residential Component is 6,000 square feet and the project includes 5,000 square feet of residential development onsite, the project would owe the in-lieu fee for the remaining 1,000 square feet of residential not built.
If a project satisfies the Residential Component by building 4 or fewer units onsite and does not provide an inclusionary unit onsite, then the project would owe the Small Project inclusionary in-lieu fee for the forgone inclusionary unit in the residential development.
