STUDY SESSION
Housing Mix - Measure U - Community Development Director Shaw reported
that on September 26, 2000, the Planning Commission considered the issue of a
75/25 percent housing mix under the purview of Measure U and discussed
several issues which he reviewed and were included in the staff report prepared
for this study session. The Planning Commission, on a 4 to 2 vote, moved to
recommend to the City Council implementation of policy 4.40q utilizing the
definitions as identified by the State Department of Finance to establish what
constitutes single family and multifamily; that the land use implementation
strategy as identified in the staff memorandum be used, and that staff be
directed to implement this as soon as feasible. They recommended, however,
that condominiums should be included in the single family category and that
group homes not be counted within the 75/25 percent housing mix. The two
dissenting votes were relative to the issue of condominiums being included in
the single family category. The Planning Commission unanimously moved to
recommend to the City Council that projects currently in process be allowed to
proceed. Finally, the Planning Commission requested that a joint committee of
the City Council and Planning Commission be formed to meet the 75/25 percent
housing mix and that this committee also examine the related philosophical
issues of providing a variety of housing types, urban sprawl, and open space.
Following the presentation and discussion, Councilmember Freedman moved to
direct staff to prepare a resolution pertaining to Measure U with regards to the
75/25 percent housing mix incorporating the recommendations of the Planning
Commission and bring the resolution back to the City Council for its
consideration on October 17, 2000. Motion seconded by Councilmember
George and carried unanimously.
