Subject: Affordable Housing Linkage Fees


Chris and Kurt:



At last week's City Council meeting, Chris requested that Council members submit questions that they would like answered in advance of the November hearing on affordable housing linkage fees.  Mine are below.  Thank you for all of your good work on this.



Best,



Bob



1.  When was the linkage fee implemented city-wide by the City Council and when was in fully phased in?



2.  Since the linkage fee was implemented city-wide, how many projects have been subject to payment and how much has the city collected?



3.  In addition to the linkage fee, what are the other sources of funding for permanently affordable housing?



4.  Using averages of the funding sources for permanently affordable housing over the past few years, what percentage has been contributed by the linkage fee?



5.  How many times has the Affordable Housing Technical Review Group failed to fund an otherwise qualified affordable housing project solely because of lack of available city funds?



6.  When did we establish the goal of 10 percent permanently affordable housing?



7.  What percentage of the city's housing is permanently affordable now?



8.  When will we likely reach the 10 percent goal at current levels of available funding?



9.  How much more quickly will that goal be reached if the linkage fee is increased?
