Building Affordable Housing through an Inclusionary Housing Policy
In 2018, City leaders an Inclusionary Housing Policy (IHP), to help meet the goal of increasing housing choices in the community. The IHP requires that all new housing development include affordable rents or make a financial contribution to the City’s Housing & Redevelopment Fund (HRF). City leaders updated the IHP in 2021 to encourage apartments with more bedrooms, incentivize more deeply affordable units and add requirements for accessible housing.
