It necessitates affordable units in projects, especially rentals, with 20% of units being affordable. These units should average 60% of the AMI, capped at 80% of the AMI. Developers providing six or more on-site or off-site affordable units must select additional compliance options. The ordinance, effective upon approval, allows affordable units at various income levels.
