Chapter 17.26 — TRANSIT INCENTIVE

To implement the Climate Action Plan, reduce vehicle trips, and encourage the use of mass transit, transit incentives shall be provided incidental to new multi-family uses and major alterations and enlargements of existing multifamily uses near Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART). (Ord. 2094 § 2, 2014)

Transit Incentive. The following shall apply to new multi-family dwellings of 20 units or more, including rental apartments, condominiums and the residential portion of mixed use projects, located on sites where any portion of the site is within one-half mile of a BART station as measured from the center of the platform.

The property owner shall provide a transit benefit for each unit at no cost to the resident. The benefit shall be, at a minimum, one pass or tickets for local bus transit service for unlimited local travel for one person in each unit for a period of six months.

For rental apartment projects a notice describing this transit benefit shall be included in the lease or rental agreement and also shall be posted in a location or locations visible to residents. The property owner shall continue to provide this benefit for each unit for a period of 15 years each time a unit is leased or rented by new residents, starting at the date of certificate of occupancy.

For residential condominiums the project owner at the time of initial sale shall provide the transit benefit at the initial sale of each unit.

The transit incentive required by this section may be fulfilled if the qualified new resident or initial buyer receives equivalent transit services through a transit assessment district, business owners association, or other resource, as determined by the director. (Ord. 2094 § 2, 2014)
