KQED","labelTerm":{"site":"news"},"content":"\u003cp>After nearly a decade of trying to peel away the red tape holding back housing construction in California, legislators this year are nibbling away at the last of the low-hanging fruit: impact fees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cities impose impact fees to fund construction for new schools, road maintenance, public art installations, and other amenities. The fees vary widely based on the type of project and city — ranging from \u003ca href=\"https://ternercenter.berkeley.edu/development-fees\">as low as $12,000 per unit to as high as $157,000 per unit\u003c/a>.[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Erik Schoennauer, land use consultant\"]‘The city should create a master list of all potential fees, anything conceivable.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These can be really, really high costs that can make or break the math on a development,” said Sean Roberts, a developer and CEO of Villa Homes. “These fees create a barrier to actually getting homes built, and that’s not good for anybody right now in California.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The constitutionality of these fees was recently challenged in the Supreme Court. Last week, the court unanimously ruled that cities should have to demonstrate the fees they are charging are reasonable. But, they left it to lower courts to decide what counts as a reasonable fee. Meaning, there won’t be any immediate changes to how much cities are charging.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the meantime, a slate of bills is making its way through the legislature. None of the bills would actually reduce these fees. That’s because doing so would require tackling a much thornier question of how to make up for cities’ lost revenue. Instead, these bills aim to address other issues that developers have with the fees: that they don’t often know going into a project how much the fees will cost and that they are often due before projects even break ground.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=\"news_11981595,news_11945744,news_11980019\" label=\"Related Stories\"]SB 937 would make payment due only once people are actually living in the new housing. AB 2144, authored by Assemblymember Timothy Grayson (D-Concord), and AB 1820, authored by Assemblymember Pilar Schiavo (D-Santa Clarita), would both require cities to post easily accessible information about the fees they charge. And a fifth bill, AB 1210, would cap the fees developers have to pay to connect new homes and apartment buildings to utility services, limiting the fees to 1% of the project’s estimated value.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the cost of materials, labor and interest rates continue to soar, legislators see these changes as one of the last remaining levers they can pull to reduce the cost of construction and spur development across the state. And while developers generally welcome these efforts to make housing easier to build, they say there are much bigger, meatier fish to fry in the complicated politics of California housing construction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Erik Schoennauer, a land use consultant who works with developers in San Jose, said he’s been advocating for the changes the bills propose for years.

None of the bills would actually reduce these fees. That’s because doing so would require tackling a much thornier question of how to make up for cities’ lost revenue. Instead, these bills aim to address other issues that developers have with the fees: that they don’t often know going into a project how much the fees will cost and that they are often due before projects even break ground.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"aside","attributes":{"named":{"postid":"news_11981595,news_11945744,news_11980019","label":"Related Stories "},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>SB 937 would make payment due only once people are actually living in the new housing.

And since the builder’s remedy only applies to cities or counties that don’t comply with state housing law, Wicks said the bill should further incentivize those jurisdictions to get in line.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The message to local jurisdictions is very clear: The days of shirking your responsibility to your neighbors are over,” she said. “This bill is not about taking away local control. It’s about creating consequences for ignoring the law.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=\"news_11945744,news_11938267\" label=\"Related Stories\"]Though the builder’s remedy has been on the books since 1990, developers have only recently been willing to use it. That changed, in part, due to a bevy of new housing laws that have been approved over the past half-decade as the state seeks to spur the construction of some \u003ca href=\"https://statewide-housing-plan-cahcd.hub.arcgis.com/\">2.5 million new homes by 2031\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In particular, jurisdictions are required to submit plans to the state every eight years detailing where developers can build new housing. But, because of those recent changes to state law, cities and counties not only have to plan for more housing than ever before, they also have to locate more of that housing in neighborhoods with access to highly-rated schools, grocery stores and transportation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s meant that cities and counties have often had to resubmit plans multiple times.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As of Tuesday, 40% of cities and counties across the state were \u003ca href=\"https://www.hcd.ca.gov/planning-and-community-development/housing-open-data-tools/housing-element-review-and-compliance-report\">out of compliance\u003c/a> with state housing law, and in the Bay Area, 37% were out of compliance — making them potentially vulnerable to builder’s remedy projects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the past two years, \u003ca href=\"https://airtable.com/app9RDx8iUzQMybXB/shrOu16SXIFWr5Bsy/tblCmd5iq08cbtxR8/viwdVopcBuGou2AfK?backgroundColor=green\">at least 93 builder’s remedy projects\u003c/a>, representing 17,000 potential new homes or apartments, have been proposed across California, according to the pro-housing advocacy organization, YIMBY Law, which keeps a running tally — though Sonja Trauss, the organization’s executive director, admits the tally is an undercount.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When a jurisdiction is in compliance with housing element law, that means they’ve made it possible to build the housing that we need,” Wicks said. “That means that they have zoned to ensure there’s enough land where it’s legal to build housing. They’ve removed constraints so that their approval process is more efficient and objective.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even without the update proposed under AB 1893, Trauss said the law has been successful “at motivating cities to get in compliance” with state housing laws.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re looking forward to continuing to see positive results in the courts on projects using the existing program, and also looking forward to the improvements this bill promises in making the builder’s remedy even easier to use to build housing faster,” she wrote in an email.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The projects, however, have faced opposition from cities that have sought to block approvals under the builder’s remedy. In the wealthy Los Angeles-area city of La Cañada Flintridge, for instance, city officials denied an application for a project with 80 mixed-income apartment units, along with hotel and office space, arguing it had “self-certified” its own housing plan, making it immune to the law. Last month, a court \u003ca href=\"https://oag.ca.gov/news/press-releases/attorney-general-bonta-court-orders-la-ca%C3%B1ada-flintridge-follow-state-housing#:~:text=OAKLAND%20%E2%80%94%20California%20Attorney%20General%20Rob,did%20not%20have%20a%20compliant\">ruled against the city\u003c/a>, forcing it to proceed with processing the application.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AB 1893 clarifies where housing could be built, designating sites already used for housing, retail or office as appropriate and prohibiting projects on or adjacent to industrial sites. It also provides clearer objective standards for development, allowing projects to more than double or sometimes triple the density of housing the jurisdiction currently allows.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All of which should make it easier for developers to make sure their projects can’t be challenged in court, said Muhammad Alameldin, a policy associate with the Terner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It establishes a definitive objective standard,” he said. “This also diminishes the ability for local governments to disapprove projects by adding onerous standards or refusing to process applications.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alameldin said the projects are more likely to be financially feasible by lowering the requirements to provide affordable housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So what the bill hopes to do is that by lowering the threshold, more projects will be proposed,” he said. “By making [the affordable housing requirement] 10%, then projects could start penciling across the state.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One developer, Sasha Zbrozek, wasted no time submitting an application to build a five-unit townhouse on his property in the Bay Area’s Los Altos Hills.

And since the builder’s remedy only applies to cities or counties that don’t comply with state housing law, Wicks said the bill should further incentivize those jurisdictions to get in line.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The message to local jurisdictions is very clear: The days of shirking your responsibility to your neighbors are over,” she said. “This bill is not about taking away local control. It’s about creating consequences for ignoring the law.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"aside","attributes":{"named":{"postid":"news_11945744,news_11938267","label":"Related Stories "},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>Though the builder’s remedy has been on the books since 1990, developers have only recently been willing to use it. That changed, in part, due to a bevy of new housing laws that have been approved over the past half-decade as the state seeks to spur the construction of some \u003ca href=\"https://statewide-housing-plan-cahcd.hub.arcgis.com/\">2.5 million new homes by 2031\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In particular, jurisdictions are required to submit plans to the state every eight years detailing where developers can build new housing. But, because of those recent changes to state law, cities and counties not only have to plan for more housing than ever before, they also have to locate more of that housing in neighborhoods with access to highly-rated schools, grocery stores and transportation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s meant that cities and counties have often had to resubmit plans multiple times.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As of Tuesday, 40% of cities and counties across the state were \u003ca href=\"https://www.hcd.ca.gov/planning-and-community-development/housing-open-data-tools/housing-element-review-and-compliance-report\">out of compliance\u003c/a> with state housing law, and in the Bay Area, 37% were out of compliance — making them potentially vulnerable to builder’s remedy projects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the past two years, \u003ca href=\"https://airtable.com/app9RDx8iUzQMybXB/shrOu16SXIFWr5Bsy/tblCmd5iq08cbtxR8/viwdVopcBuGou2AfK?backgroundColor=green\">at least 93 builder’s remedy projects\u003c/a>, representing 17,000 potential new homes or apartments, have been proposed across California, according to the pro-housing advocacy organization, YIMBY Law, which keeps a running tally — though Sonja Trauss, the organization’s executive director, admits the tally is an undercount.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When a jurisdiction is in compliance with housing element law, that means they’ve made it possible to build the housing that we need,” Wicks said. “That means that they have zoned to ensure there’s enough land where it’s legal to build housing. They’ve removed constraints so that their approval process is more efficient and objective.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even without the update proposed under AB 1893, Trauss said the law has been successful “at motivating cities to get in compliance” with state housing laws.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re looking forward to continuing to see positive results in the courts on projects using the existing program, and also looking forward to the improvements this bill promises in making the builder’s remedy even easier to use to build housing faster,” she wrote in an email.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The projects, however, have faced opposition from cities that have sought to block approvals under the builder’s remedy. In the wealthy Los Angeles-area city of La Cañada Flintridge, for instance, city officials denied an application for a project with 80 mixed-income apartment units, along with hotel and office space, arguing it had “self-certified” its own housing plan, making it immune to the law. Last month, a court \u003ca href=\"https://oag.ca.gov/news/press-releases/attorney-general-bonta-court-orders-la-ca%C3%B1ada-flintridge-follow-state-housing#:~:text=OAKLAND%20%E2%80%94%20California%20Attorney%20General%20Rob,did%20not%20have%20a%20compliant\">ruled against the city\u003c/a>, forcing it to proceed with processing the application.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AB 1893 clarifies where housing could be built, designating sites already used for housing, retail or office as appropriate and prohibiting projects on or adjacent to industrial sites. It also provides clearer objective standards for development, allowing projects to more than double or sometimes triple the density of housing the jurisdiction currently allows.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All of which should make it easier for developers to make sure their projects can’t be challenged in court, said Muhammad Alameldin, a policy associate with the Terner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It establishes a definitive objective standard,” he said. “This also diminishes the ability for local governments to disapprove projects by adding onerous standards or refusing to process applications.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alameldin said the projects are more likely to be financially feasible by lowering the requirements to provide affordable housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So what the bill hopes to do is that by lowering the threshold, more projects will be proposed,” he said. “By making [the affordable housing requirement] 10%, then projects could start penciling across the state.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One developer, Sasha Zbrozek, wasted no time submitting an application to build a five-unit townhouse on his property in the Bay Area’s Los Altos Hills. But just a month after he submitted it, city officials found it incomplete.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A year later, his project still hasn’t broken ground — a result, he said, of a combination of factors, including high-interest rates and regulatory hurdles.
