AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
TUSTIN, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING AND RESTATING IN
ITS ENTIRETY CHAPTER 1 OF ARTICLE 9 (LAND USE) OF
THE TUSTIN CITY CODE (CODE AMENDMENT 2022-0004)
RELATING TO INCENTIVES FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF
AFFORDABLE HOUSING
The City Council of the City of Tustin does hereby ordain as follows:
SECTION 1. The City Council finds and determines as follows:
A. That the State of California identifies affordable housing and special needs housing
as a statewide priority. The legislature has created new incentives to facilitate and
expediate housing production. Recent legislation expands prior State law requiring
local agencies to grant density bonuses and development incentives, concessions,
and waivers to reduce the cost of providing affordable housing.
B. That Chapter 1 of Article 9 of the Tustin City Code (TCC), which contains
provisions for density bonus and development incentives, concessions, and
waivers for affordable housing, was last updated in October of 2017 with the
adoption of City Council Ordinance No. 1484.
C. That a City initiated Code Amendment 2022-0004 has been prepared to amend
and restate in its entirety Chapter 1 of Article 9 of the TCC to comply with the State
Density Bonus Law (Government Code Sections 65915-65918) as modified by
Assembly Bills (AB) 2797, 2753, 991,1763, and 2345 and Senate Bills (SB) 1227,
290, and 728.
D. That Code Amendment 2022-0004 updates existing TCC provisions pertaining to
density bonus and development incentives, concessions, and waivers for
affordable housing, which incentivize the production of new affordable and special
needs housing, thereby contributing to the health and welfare of underserved
populations, including lower income households, senior citizens, transitional foster
youth, disabled veterans and homeless persons.
E. That on August 9, 2022, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. 4455,
and recommended that the City Council adopt Ordinance No. 1528, approving
Code Amendment 2022-0004 amending and restating in its entirety Chapter 1 of
Article 9 of the Tustin City Code relating to incentives for the development of
affordable housing.
F. That on September 20, 2022, a public hearing was duly noticed, called, and held
on Code Amendment 2022-0004 by the City Council.
Ordinance No. 1528
DocuSign Envelope ID: 5C373DDE-C7CC-4C88-991A-CEEBBBFD10B1
SECTION 2. Chapter 1 (Incentives for the Development of Affordable Housing) of Article
9 (Land Use) of the Tustin City Code is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as
stated in the revised Chapter 1 attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.
SECTION 3. Effective Date. This Ordinance shall take effect on the 31St day after its
adoption. The City Clerk or his or her duly appointed deputy shall certify to the adoption
of the Ordinance and cause this Ordinance to be published as required by law.
SECTION 4. CEQA Exemption. The City Council finds that this Ordinance is not subject
to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"; Cal. Pub. Resources Code Section
21000 et seq.) pursuant to California Code of Regulations, Title 14 Chapter 3, Sections
15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect
physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as
defined in Section 15378) because it has no potential for resulting in a physical change
to the environment, directly or indirectly and will not result in any physical development in
and of itself. Any future development which utilizes these provisions will require CEQA
review specific to the site and proposed development. In addition, the State Density
Bonus Law contains mandatory provisions that the City must implement, whether or not
it adopts its own ordinance, therefore the amendment does not create a new land use
regulation.
SECTION 5. Severability. If any section, sub -section, clause or phrase in this Ordinance
or the application thereof to any person or circumstances is for any reason held invalid,
the validity of the remainder of this Ordinance or the application of such provisions to
other persons or circumstances shall not be affected.
PASSED AND ADOPTED, at a regular meeting of the City Council of the City of
Tustin on this 4th day of October, 2022.
