RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve the Del Hombre Apartments Density Bonus and Inclusionary Housing Developer Agreement and authorize the Director of Conservation and Development to execute the Agreement.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact. The applicant is responsible for payment of all fees associated with this development including annual monitoring and review costs.

BACKGROUND:

Del Hombre Apartments is a development of 284 residential units in unincorporated Walnut Creek that was approved by the County in 2020. The developer, Hanover Company, sought and was granted a density bonus for the project. It also fell within the scope of the County's inclusionary housing ordinance. The attached Developer Agreement is the implementation tool for those two components of the project. It covers the ongoing obligations of Hanover and the County over the 55-year time period, under which 36 units will be provided as affordable housing to low and moderate income households. There is no change in the project as approved; this is simply the detailed version of the density bonus and inclusionary housing requirements that were included in the project's Conditions of Approval.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The Del Hombre Apartments project was approved with conditions for the developer to enter into a Density Bonus and Inclusionary Housing Agreement pursuant to the County's Density Bonus and Inclusionary Housing Ordinances. The consequence of negative action would delay the development of the project, as an executed agreement is required prior to the issuance of building permits or recordation of the parcel map.
