MHA Recommendations – discussed and concluded on April 13
Increase development capacity in areas across the city that afford residents high access to opportunity.
Expand proposed urban village boundaries to better align with existing and planned investments in infrastructure, essential services and amenities.
Increase the intensity of rezones around public investments such as schools, parks, community centers, usable open space and transit hubs more than shown in the October 2016 draft maps.Slide3
MHA Recommendations – discussed and concluded on April 13
5. Equitably distribute housing opportunities by zoning more medium-density areas throughout urban villages instead of concentrating higher densities along arterials and preserving other areas within the urban village at much lower densities.Slide4
MHA Recommendations – not discussed on April 13
Prioritize and incentivize production of affordable and market rate family sized housing in projects of various scales and locations.
Consistent with 2014 Family Sized Housing action agenda.
Provide incentives and technical assistance for projects that choose performance.
Achieve greater socioeconomic diversity within projects and neighborhoods.Slide5
MHA Recommendations – not discussed on April 13
Leverage funding generated by MHA to produce a wider variety of housing choices.
Target MHA investments to areas generating funds and seeing growth, but are producing few affordable (performance) units.
Increase supply of income-restricted units in smaller-scale multi-family developments through both performance and payment options.

MHA Recommendations – not discussed on April 13
11. Identify opportunities for more equitably distributing growth across the city through future Comprehensive Plan updates and potential new urban villages. Slide7
MHA Recommendations –discussed & not concluded on April 13
Conservative rezones and boundary expansions in areas with a high-risk of displacement may limit long-term growth capacity and housing opportunity.
6. In areas with a high risk of displacement, consider implementing alternative anti-displacement strategies instead of raising MHA requirements beyond what the market or intensity of rezone dictates. Slide8
MHA Recommendations –discussed & not concluded on April 13. Proposed new language
2. + 6.
Pair
more conservative rezones in areas with a high risk of displacement with incentives to provide affordable (performance) units, and implement additional anti-displacement strategies in those areas.
