particularly depicted in Exhibit "A" attached to this Agreement and incorporated

B. On January 16, 2025, the Zoning Administrator approved the Placentia Avenue
Apartments (PA2023-0053) for the development of eleven (11) apartment units,
atop a 24-space parking structure, as depicted on Exhibit "B" attached to this
Agreement and incorporated herein ("Project").
C. Project approval included the adoption of an Affordable Housing Implementation
Plan No. PA2023-0053, dated October 8, 2024 ("AHIP"), which implements
affordable housing requirements for the Project pursuant to a density bonus and
incentives/concessions pursuant to Chapter 20.32 (Density Bonus) of the Newport
Beach Municipal Code ("NBMC") and California Government Code Section 65915
("State Density Bonus Law"). The AHIP is attached hereto and incorporated herein
by reference as Exhibit "C."
D. Pursuant to the State Density Bonus Law and the City's density bonus
requirements, the City granted a maximum density bonus of 46.25 % above the
maximum number of units allowed by the City's General Plan and Title 20
(Planning and Zoning) in exchange for construction of a minimum number of
affordable housing units. With the approved maximum density bonus of 46.25%,
the Project is eligible for four (4) additional units above the seven (7) base units
("Base Units") for a total of 11 dwelling units.
E. The Multiple Residential Zoning District (RM) Development Standards
("Development Standards") provide for a maximum residential density of eighteen
(18) dwelling units per acre. The Project is planned to consist of seven (7) total
dwelling units based on the current maximum residential density per the
1526 Placentia Avenue Affordable Housing Agreement Page 2 of 18
Development Standards ("Base Units") and four (4) density bonus units. The
Development Standards require that fourteen percent (14%) of the Base Units
within a residential development shall be affordable to Very -Low -Income
Households. The affordable housing requirement for this project is one (1) unit
("Affordable Dwelling Unit") (14% of 7 Base Units).
F. The one (1) Affordable Dwelling Unit provided by the Developer, will be made
available to Very -Low -Income Households ("Required Density Bonus Lower
Income Units"), which complies with the provisions of California Government Code
Section 65915 and NBMC Section 20.32 applicable to a 46.25% density bonus.
Rents for the Required Density Bonus Very Low Income Unit will be computed in
accordance with California Health and Safety Code Section 50053, as required by
California Government Code Section 65915(c)(1) and Section 20.32.160 of the
NBMC.
G. Developer intends to operate the Project as a rental community. The one (1)
Required Density Bonus Very -Low Income Unit will remain rent restricted for a
minimum of fifty-five (55) years, per California Government Code Section
65915(c)(1).
H. Section 20.32.160 of the NBMC requires that an applicant who seeks a density
bonus enter into an affordable housing agreement with the City. The AHIP also
requires that the applicant enter into an affordable housing agreement in
recordable form prior to obtaining the first building permit for any residential unit
and which ensures that the maximum rents for the affordable units will be
calculated using the methodologies set forth in the AHIP. The Parties intend for
the Declaration of Affordable Housing Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions,
substantially in the form as Exhibit "D" attached to this Agreement and incorporated
herein ("Declaration"), to satisfy the requirement for a recorded affordable housing
agreement.

The developer, 1526 Placentia Avenue, is proposing demolition of the current market and
development of an apartment building on a .37 net acre site. The site is located North of the
intersection of W 151h Street and Placentia Avenue. The Newport Beach General Plan designates the
project site as Multiple -Unit Residential and the zoning is Multiple -Unit Residential (RM). The site
is currently developed with a Liquor Store. The development will consist of 11 residential units and
open parking garage.
The is Multiple -Unit Residential (RM) Zoning has a Floor Area limit of 1.75 and 2,420 square feet
per residential unit. This results in the following requirements:
Minimum of 4 residential units
Maximum of 7 residential units (before applying density bonus)
Eligibility for Density Bonus
The 1526 Placentia Avenue development will provide specific unit 1C as affordable to Very Low
Income households, 14% of the Base Units as described in Table 1 on the next page. This will
comply with the provisions of Government Code Section 65915(f)(2) applicable to a 46.25% density
bonus. Rents for the Very Low Income units will be computed in accordance with Health and Safety
Code Sec. 50053, as required by Government Code Section 65915(c)(1).

The Developer intends to operate the apartment project as a rental community. The 1 Very Low Income
unit will remain rent restricted for 55 years, per Government Code Section 65915(c)(1).
Reduction in Parking
The 1526 Placentia Ave development meets the criteria of subdivision (b) of Government Code Sec.
65915 and Section 20.32.030 of the City's Zoning Code by providing more than five percent (5%) of the
total units of a housing development (excluding any units permitted by the density bonus awarded
pursuant to that section) for Very Low -Income households.
Government Code Section 65915(p) and Section 20.32.040 of the City's Zoning Code provides the
following:
(1) Upon the request of the developer, no city, county, or city and county shall require a vehicular
parking ratio, inclusive of handicapped and guest parking, of a development meeting the criteria
of subdivision (b), that exceeds the following ratios:
a. Zero to one bedrooms: one onsite parking space.
b. Two to three bedrooms: one and''/z onsite parking spaces.
(2) If the total number of parking spaces required for a development is other than a whole
number, the number shall be rounded up to the next whole number. For purposes of this
subdivision, a development may provide "onsite parking" through tandem parking or uncovered
parking, but not through street parking.

Income Limits and Examples of Eligible Tenants for Affordable Homes
Very Low -Income Households are defined as households whose gross income does not exceed 50% of
area median income, adjusted for household size. Table 4 below shows the maximum income limits for
2024 determined by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and the California
Department of Housing and Community Development ("HCD") for Very Low -Income households with
household sizes appropriate for the 1526 Placentia Avenue development:
Table 3
Maximum Income Limits
Household Size
Very Low Income Units
Maximum Annual
Income-2024
1 person
$55,250
2 person
$63,100
3 person
$71,050
4 person
$78,900
Higher income limits apply to larger families; those families however are not considered to be a target
market for 1526 Placentia Avenue, where the unit mix for the affordable homes is anticipated to consist of
two -bedroom apartment homes.
The 1 affordable apartment that Developer will provide will be rented to eligible Very Low Income
Households. As shown in Table 3, Very Low Income Households includes incomes ranging from $63,100
per year for a two -person household to $78,900 per year for a four -person household. As such this could
include retail and food service industry employees, certain City employees, school district employees,
health care professionals, and other occupations which provide needed services to our community.

In order to provide opportunities to workers to live in one of the affordable homes, the City could provide
guidelines providing for acceptance of applications on a priority basis from classes of individuals who
qualify under the income limits in effect. The guidelines could provide for priority treatment for local
residents, City employees, employees of the local school district, and other categories identified by the
City for priority treatment.
Rental Rate Limits for Affordable Homes
The 1 Very Low -Income unit shall be rented at an affordable rent calculated in accordance with the
provisions of Section 50053 of the Health and Safety Code. Section 50053 of the Health and Safety Code
limits affordable rent to 30% of total income for a Very Low -Income household, as calculated in Table 5
below. That section also requires that the rent for a two -bedroom unit assumes a four -person household
for rent calculation purposes. The rents calculated are then adjusted by a utility allowance as determined
annually by the County of Orange Housing & Community Services Department. As of October 1, 2024,
the reduction for the utility allowance is $352.00 per month for a two -bedroom unit. The utility allowance
utilized assumes gas cooking, space heating, and water heating, as well as electricity, water, sewer,
refrigerator, and trash fees which will be paid by the tenant. The maximum rent levels for 2024 are shown
in Table 5 below:

The Developer will enter into an affordable housing agreement, in recordable form, with the City prior to
obtaining the first building permit for any residential unit. That agreement will ensure that the maximum
rents for the affordable apartment homes will be calculated using the methodologies as utilized in Table 5.
The rental rates shown will be updated prior to the commencement of rental activities and on an ongoing
basis to reflect current income limits, utility allowances, and any changes in applicable regulations and
statutes.
Unit Mix, Design, and Location of Affordable Hoines
The affordable unit will be unit 1C. As required by Section b 20.32.070 of the City's Zoning Code, the
affordable homes shall be comparable in the facilities provided and in the quality of construction and
exterior design to the market rate homes. There is only one unit designated as affordable and it is of the
same scope of design as the other 9 single story units.
Requested City of Newport Beach Assistance
