9:30 a.m.

ZF #2012-0032: Recommendation on approval of three minor Zoning Code Amendments related to housing, which would amend Chapter 2, Title 8 of the Yolo County Code. The first amendment would adopt a Reasonable Accommodations ordinance to provide a procedure for individuals with disabilities to request reasonable accommodation in seeking equal access to housing under the federal Fair Housing Act and the California Fair Employment and Housing Act. The second amendment would provide regulations and development standards for emergency shelters, and supportive and transitional housing projects, that are consistent with State requirements (Senate Bill 2 (2007), Government Code Sections 65583 and 65589.5). The third amendment would provide housing density bonus incentives for the production of housing in accordance with Sections 65915 and 65917 of the California Government Code for very low, low, and moderate income households and senior households. Some of these amendments are part of the comprehensive Zoning Code Update program, but all three are being accelerated for approval upon request of the California Department of Housing and Community Development to ensure their review of the County Housing Element update remains on schedule. A Statutory Exemption from CEQA pursuant to Section 15061 (b) (3) of the CEQA Guidelines, known as the "common sense" rule, has been prepared for the project. Applicant: Yolo County (E.Parfrey)
