Inclusionary Housing Requirements The project has less than 15 units; therefore, the project is not required to provide units affordable to very low and low-income household per the City's Inclusionary I Iousing Ordinance, Chapter 17.44 of the Pleasanton Municipal Code. Projects on a site with I S or greater multi-family dwelling units must make at least 15% of the total number of all units affordable to very low and low income households. Projects on a site with 15 or greater single- family dwelling units must make at least 20% of the project's dwelling units affordable to very low, low, and/or moderate income households. Growth Management Development of this property will fall under the "First-Come-First-Serve" category of the City's Growth Management program, which has an annual allocation of 100 units. Although past demand for "First-Come-First Serve" units has exceeded supply in the past, that demand has declined since 2000. Staff therefore anticipates that there will be adequate building permit capacity for these lots in the future. Green Building The recently adopted Green Building Ordinance will apply to the homes in this project. The Green Building Ordinance requires that each home achieve the minimum required "green points" (currently 50 points) for the home and the minimum number of points required for each category (I?nergy, Indoor Air Quality/Health, Resources, and Water). "fhe applicants have submitted an initial Green Points Checklist (see Exhibit A), and believe each home will receive 68 points and the minimum amount required for each category.
