Editor's note— Ord. No. 4295, § 3, adopted Feb. 1, 2021, amended the Code by the addition of Div. 8, §§ 74-373—74-376; however, said provisions have been redesignated as Div. 8, §§ 74-501—74-504, at the editor's discretion, for purposes of allowing future expansion of the Code.

The requirements of this article may be adjusted or waived if the applicant demonstrates to the city manager that applying the requirement of this article would take property in violation of the United States or California Constitutions.

(Ord. No. 4295, § 3, 2-1-2021)

For an adjustment or waiver to be considered, the applicant must apply for the same at the time of an application for the residential development.

(Ord. No. 4295, § 3, 2-1-2021)

If the city manager determines that applying the requirement of this program, considered together with any variances, or regulatory concessions or incentives that may be applied to the proposed residential project, would take property in violation of the United States or California Constitutions, the requirements of this program shall be modified, adjusted or waived to reduce the obligations but only to the extent necessary to avoid an unconstitutional result. If the city manager determines no violation of the United States or California Constitutions would occur through application of this article, the requirements of this article remain applicable.

(a) Application of the inclusionary housing requirement to the residential development;

(b) Application of any applicable inclusionary or density bonus concessions, incentives or waivers;

(c) Utilization of the most cost-efficient product type for the inclusionary units; and
