 Evaluate exclusions to the state law;
 Seek to regulate existing loopholes related to
substantial remodels, bad faith Ellis Act evictions, and owner move-in evictions;
 Evaluate relocation payment requirements;
 Provide transparency in local procedures; and

development of new affordable housing once enough
funds are received.
2024 6th Cycle Completed
Projections were optimistic at the time of this program writing - with commercial development on pause in the City, far less impact fee revenue has been paid. The Housing Standing
Committee and City Council both considered an Affordable Housing Financing Plan in 2025 that provides guidances and strategies for the City to make the most effective use of the limited funding currently available for affordable housing. The City aims to comprehensively update the plan every 2 years and is posted on the City's website.

20.510 provides the Waiver and Modifications process to establish an alternate means of granting relief from the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance when so doing
would be consistent with the purposes of the Zoning
Ordinance and it is not possible or practical to approve a variance. This procedure is intended, but is not limited to facilitating compliance with the Federal Fair Housing Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and the California Fair Employment and Housing Act by providing reasonable
accommodation to persons with disabilities seeking fair access to housing through modification of the application of the City’s zoning regulations. Update Chapter 20.510 with the HCD model ordinance provided at t.ly/dYdaJ to

Inclusionary Housing
Ordinance.

The City shall continue to implement the Inclusionary
Housing Ordinance, in accordance with State law,
requiring new rental and for sale residential development over four units to provide a minimum of 15% low- and
moderate-income housing.
2031 6th Cycle Continuous

CRT-2.2 - Regularly review
Inclusionary Housing
Ordinance.

The City shall review the success of the Inclusionary
Housing Ordinance, not more frequently than bi-annually, to determine if the objectives of the ordinance are being met. Consideration shall be made to revising provisions of the ordinance to ensure that a range of housing
opportunities for all identifiable economic segments of the population, including households of low and moderate
incomes, and those persons with developmental
disabilities, are provided.

Bi-annual 6th Cycle Continuous
Current market conditions suggest the Inclusionary Housing Ordinance is market feasible. However, the City is in the process of addressing recommendations provided during the Anti Displacement Study that terminated November 2025. Ahead of the Roadmap's termination the City adopted a Local
Preference Ordinance to respond to community feedback/need that inclusionary housing units should prioritize households who live, work, or have lived / previously displaced from the City.

Commercial and Housing
Linkage fee.

The City shall continue to implement the Commercial and Housing Linkage Fee, reviewing not more frequently than bi-annually, to determine if the fee is appropriate and keeping pace with affordable housing production needs.

Annual 6th Cycle In Progress
The City has partnered with Strategic Economics to evaluate the commercial linkage fee but has not brought a recommendation to City Council yet. The fee is not anticipated to change given the current financial modeling that shows no commercial buildings can be financed.

Meetings None available.

CRT-4.1 - Site acquisition
for affordable housing.

The City shall work with for-profit and nonprofit housing developers to acquire sites that are either vacant or
developed with underutilized, blighted, and/or
nonconforming uses for the development of affordable
housing. Annually, the City will meet with developers to discuss and identify development opportunities, and
potential funding sources, potential impact fee waiver or funding contributions by the City, and attend residential and commercial broker conferences to identify
opportunities.

Annual 6th Cycle Continuous
During these uncertain economic times, the City is actively discussing acquisition opportunities with long time property owners seeking a sale. This includes multiple buildings with existing residential units that could be preserved, shared with a non profit operator, or land banked for future housing
construction. The City Council is actively considering these opportunities with staff through the closed session process on real estate transactions.

deferrals of planning,
building and impact fees
for affordable housing
under State Density
Bonus Law.

The City shall continue to consider the waiver of
application and development fees for affordable housing development in order to support the financial viability of affordable housing development, as applicable. Waiver of such fees will be on a case-by-case basis at the City
Council’s discretion and will only be considered if a project meeting the City’s inclusionary housing ordinance shows that without fee waivers the project is infeasible. This program must balance the goal of affordable housing
production with the need to collect fee revenues to
support impacts on local infrastructure. City shall conduct a public hearing to discuss fee waiver policy related to affordable housing development and render a decision
consistent with State Density Bonus Law.
2025 6th Cycle In Progress

CRT-4.6 - City led
development of new
mixed-income affordable
housing.

The City shall pursue site acquisition and/or development of parcels to construct a goal of at least 300 units of mixedincome affordable housing for very-low, low-, and moderate-income housing. The City has traditionally
undertaken this work via providing land and/or loan funds to affordable housing developers when land or funds are available. With the implementation of the City’s
Commercial Linkage Fee in 2019 this RHNA Cycle
provides the City a dedicated income stream to proactively develop new affordable units. Staff are committed to
spending some of the anticipated fees on both land
acquisition and financial support to nonprofit affordable housing developers. Additionally, South San Francisco
approved a November 2022 ballot to authorize the City to acquire/develop, own, and operate the equivalent of 1% of the existing housing stock per year for the next 10 years.

This allows the City to produce approximately 225 units in the first year, with modest increases in following years based on the current total number of housing units. Staff will work with Council to determine if and how they would like to utilize the authority. While Commercial Linkage Fees would provide some funding, Council would need to
determine several things to selfdevelop, own, and operate housing. These include but are not limited to: 1) the legal structure under which the City will undertake this work; 2) the target populations for City-owned housing; 3) how the City becomes an experienced affordable housing
developer eligible for County and State funds. Staff are committed to moving forward with development of new
affordable housing units via whichever method (or a
combination) makes sense for the Community and which
Council provides direction regarding
2025 6th Cycle In Progress
Commercial Linkage Fee revenue estimates at the time of the Housing Element submittal were optimistic-- with commercial development on pause in the City, far less impact fee revenue has been paid. The Housing Standing Committee and City
Council both considered an Affordable Housing Financing Plan in 2025 that provides guidances and strategies for the City to make the most effective use of the limited funding currently available for affordable housing. Notwithstanding the City is currently in a public bidding process to select an affordable developer to develop a 8-11 unit townhome project on small

0.27-acre City owned parcel.

CST-5.1 - Permanent
Supportive Housing.

Group home housing is currently permitted in multiple
residential only zoning districts with approval of a minor use permit to support the availability of housing choices for persons with special needs. Under HCD best practice guidance, however, requiring these housing types to
obtain a special use or CUP could potentially subject
housing for special needs populations to higher
discretionary exceptions processes and standards where
an applicant must, for example, demonstrate compatibility with the neighborhood, unlike other residential uses.

Emergency Shelters.

Previously, the City identified the Mixed Industrial (MI) district as a zone in the city where an emergency shelter would be permitted as an allowed use, subject only to the same development standards applicable to other uses in
the zone. Zoning development standards in the General
Plan Update and companion zoning, however, seem to
have failed to properly transfer Emergency Shelter as a permitted use in any of the zoning districts, particularly the Mixed Industrial Zoning District where it was previously a permitted by-right use. This was an oversight. Consistent with SB-2339, the City is also adding an additional zoning district where residential uses are permitted by-right and has identified the T5 Corridor Zoning District (T5L).
