Status of Implementation
The Planning and Environmental Review Division has contracted with Placeworks to develop an infill program that updates the existing infill program adopted in 2008. This effort includes but is not limited to the following elements:
Discussions about the need for long-term sustainable fee reduction programs for infill areas
Identification of infill housing opportunity sites and associated infrastructure needs
Creation of an “Infill Red Team" that prioritizes infill development and affordable and missing middle housing development
Creation of a ministerial infill development program that addresses regulatory barriers such as Zoning Code development standards
Exploration of creative financing mechanisms to address infrastructure costs
The draft Infill Program was included in an April 2024 Board of Supervisors workshop on housing and infill issues. The Board provided direction to revise the Zoning Code to address infill constraints and create a ministerial process to streamline infill development. The Infill Program was adopted by the Board on August 20, 2024.
