14. REPORT ITEMS  
14.1  
REPORT - HIGH-DENSITY MULTI-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL INCENTIVE  
PROGRAM  
BACKGROUND: The High-Density Multi-Family Residential Incentive  
Program (Incentive Program) encourages housing development and  
increased density in downtown Santa Rosa through the  
reduction/deferral of the City development impact fees. The Incentive  
Program supports City Council goals to foster a vibrant downtown and  
meet housing needs for all. The incentive program was originally  
enacted in September 2018 for a limited term of five years. While the  
resolutions do not have an expiration date, there is an eligibility  
requirement for a qualifying project to “break ground by August 31,  
2023”. Breaking ground is defined as securing a foundation permit.  
Given the delays caused by emergency responses in recent years on  
downtown housing investments and construction, the Council will  
consider extending the Incentive Program.  
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Planning and  
Economic Development Department that Council, by three separate  
resolutions: (1) rescind Resolution 2018-169 and establish payment  
options for water and wastewater demand fees and amend the eligibility  
criteria for the high density multi-family residential incentive program; (2)  
rescind Resolution No. 2019-067 and set forth a revised schedule of  
park development impact fees and amend the eligibility criteria for the  
high density multi-family incentive program; and (3) rescind Resolution  
No. 2019-066 and set forth a revised schedule of capital facilities fees  
and amend the eligibility criteria for the high density multi-family  
residential incentive program to further support housing development  
and increased density in downtown Santa Rosa.
