The City is also updating the Zoning Ordinance with the current State Density Bonus law requirements (Section 32.19). If adopted, this ordinance will be effective 30 days from this action. The ordinance also makes non-substantive revisions as noted in strikethroughs and underlining. Due to the relocation of certain sections, minor updates are required to the Affordable Housing Impact Fee Resolution. The proposed resolution attached to this report would implement these updates and, if adopted, would be effective following the effective date of the ordinance. 6.4.A. - Page 1
