Members of the Planning Commission requested workshops and various training

a discretionary reviewing body on future projects. One issue that will be relevant to a
future project that will be presented to the Planning Commission relates to the City's

The workshop is intended to provide the Commission with an overview of how the
incentives for the development of affordable housing and the density bonus law applies
to the City of Tustin. Staff will provide a PowerPoint presentation at the meeting.
