Through iterative process improvements, flat amounts for fee credits have been established and codified for new construction and adaptive reuse creating affordable homes targeting households making no more than 30% area median income (AMI) - the lowest wage- earners in the City. This Code change would allow staff to administratively award fee credits up to the amount of funds that are available and that have been appropriated for such purpose. Any requests for more than available funds will still be subject to Council discretion and appropriation. 13.
