Title

City of Yucaipa Housing Element Implementation Program

Description

The proposed project will identify and rezone a minimum of 19 acres of land (one or more of Sites 1-3) for multifamily development "as-of-right." This component also includes the creation of a new land use district (RM-24 - Multiple Residential, 24 units per acre maximum) in the Development Code with corresponding development standards. Additionally, the project includes amendments to the Development Code to: add density bonus provisions to the Development Code to comply with the current provisions of State law; revise the Development Code to establish appropriate locations and development standards for Single-Room Occupancies (SROs); adopt a Reasonable Accommodation Ordinance which would require the City to remove constraints and make reasonable accommodation for housing occupied by persons with disabilities; and to establish the Service Commercial (CS) land use district as the location for emergency shelter development "as-of-right". The project also includes amendments to the Development Code that incorporate regualtions for inclusionary housing (mandating that at least 15% of new housing constructed in redevelopment project area be affordable to low-income and moderate-income households).
