City Actively pursuing Mixed Income Ordinance
The City is actively pursuing a Mixed Income Ordinance [MIO] and a timeline has been accepted by the City Council. The key issue is how such a mandatory program would ‘mesh’ with SB 1818. Refer to Council File #08-2614, a must read for further background details and Planning’s preliminary report (May 19, 2009, Report) identifying issues and concerns with MIO, or ‘inclusionary zoning’.
