SUMMARY
In October 2022, the Council adopted Resolution 22-251 and Ordinance 22-08 approving Zone Change, Site Plan Review and Density Bonus application (202101491) to construct a 22-unit townhome development at 27865 Manon Avenue. Following these approvals, the applicant applied to subdivide the development, requiring approval of a Vesting Tentative Tract Map (Tract 8600) for Condominium Purposes to be able to sell each of the townhomes individually. The proposed subdivision would feature a single parcel with each condominium owner owning the airspace within their individual unit and an equal share of the common areas and improvements within the development, which would be maintained by a Homeowners Association. No changes to the originally approved building design, landscaping plan, or site improvements are proposed, other than an adjustment to the location of the security fence.
To comply with the requirements of the City’s Affordable Housing Ordinance (AHO) for ownership projects, a modification of the previously approved Affordable Housing/Density Bonus Plan is required. The project will now provide two on-site ownership units that are deed restricted to be affordable to very low-income households in perpetuity. Additionally, the applicant will pay an in-lieu fee for a 0.04-fractional unit. The applicant further requests two additional Density Bonus waivers related to the installation of a security fence around the perimeter of the property.
