Background: On December 11, 2007, the Board adopted policy B-14, Traffic Impact Mitigation (TIM) Fee Offset Program for Developments with Affordable Housing Units. The TIM Fee Offset Committee considers requests from developers twice each year from January 20 through February 28 and July 30 through August 28. The TIM Fee Offset Committee convened for the second round of applications due July 31, 2008. Four applications were received for a total request of $329,920. Three are second dwelling units on owner occupied parcels intended as an affordable rental for low- to moderat income tenants located in Sly Park (Zone 6), Pleasant Valley (Zone 3) and Camino (Zone 5). The fourth application is for a multi-family residential low- to moderate income affordable infill development located on County Club Drive in Cameron Park (Zone 2).
Reason for Recommendation: Based on the recommendations of the TIM Fee Offset Committee, the Chief Administrative Officer recommends that the Board make a finding that the following projects will provide a significant community benefit by providing housing that is affordable to very low-, low-and/or moderate income households and approve the TIM Fee Offsets for the following amounts for the following applicants:
$27,180 - Doug Haines for the Haines Granny Flat (Supervisorial District III)
