The resources below are intended to help local jurisdiction staff assess whether inclusionary zoning policies are consistent with the Metropolitan Transportation Commission's Transit-Oriented Communities (TOC) Policy.
TOC Inclusionary Zoning In-Lieu Fee Calculator
To be consistent with the TOC Policy, an inclusionary zoning policy's in-lieu fee must typically exceed $100,000 per affordable unit that would have been required on-site. The TOC Inclusionary Zoning In-Lieu Fee Calculator is intended to assist local jurisdiction staff with determining whether the in-lieu fees required by an inclusionary zoning policy are economically equivalent to TOC Policy requirements.
Information provided by this spreadsheet does not guarantee TOC Policy consistency, and local jurisdictions are not required to use this spreadsheet. This spreadsheet does not represent legal advice.
TOC Area Median Income (AMI) Conversion Spreadsheet
The TOC AMI Conversion Spreadsheet is intended to assist jurisdiction staff with determining whether the affordability requirements for a local inclusionary zoning policy are economically equivalent to the TOC Policy requirements (i.e., 15% of rental units affordable to 80% AMI or less, or 15% of ownership units affordable to 120% AMI or less).
Information provided by this spreadsheet does not guarantee TOC Policy consistency, as the evaluation of a local jurisdiction's policy may involve additional research and analysis by MTC staff. This spreadsheet does not represent legal advice.
