(THE INCLUSIONARY ZONING REGULATIONS)
WHEREAS, a goal of the Housing Element is to achieve a balanced community with housing available
for households at a range of income levels; and
WHEREAS, accordingly, the City has adopted the Inclusionary Zoning Regulations ("the
Regulations"), set forth at Chapter 8.68 of the Dublin Municipal Code, which Regulations generally require
developers of residential housing in excess of 19 units in the City of Dublin to set aside 12.5% of such units for
very-low-, low-, and moderate-income households, as defined; and
WHEREAS, on June 1, 2004, the City Council by Resolution No. 94-04 adopted the Layperson 's Guide
to the Inclusionary Zoning Ordinance Regulations ("the Guide"), which was designed to assist the public and
development community in interpreting and understanding the Regulations; and
WHEREAS, presently amendments to the Guide require City Council approval, and, in the course of its
use of the current version of the Guide, City Staff has found that circumstances change quickly in the residential
housing and finance marketplace and that it is therefore necessary that the City Manager have the authority to
adopt and amend guidelines for the interpretation and implementation of the Regulations to the extent that those
amendments are consistent with the purposes of the Inclusionary Zoning Regulations.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that Resolution No. 94-04 ("Approving Guidelines for
Implementing the Inclusionary Zoning Ordinance Regulations"} is hereby repealed.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT the City Council does authorize the City Manager (in
consultation with the Community Development Director) to adopt and, from time to time, amend guidelines

are published on the City's website.
