Council and staff

Thanks for a great discussion tonight on ADU's and affordable housing and thanks for the well-prepared materials.

I meant to bring this up at the beginning of our ADU discussion tonight but did not and that is the issue of permanent affordability for the ADU's and OAU's. While I am not in favor of these becoming permanently affordable given they rent for less than market values, I am interested in considering a program similar to a pilot in Denver for ADUs. Specifically that discussion can be seen on page 11 of our packet and it describes Denver exploring a pilot project in West Denver to provide a no interest loan of $25,000 for the construction of a ADU in exchange for a deed restriction on rents at 80% of area median income. Anyway if a majority of council agrees, I'd like to add this to the list we'd like staff to consider under the heading of ADUs.

I'll raise this Monday under matters at our business meeting.

Thanks

Lisa
