File #:18-322,Version:1 <br />housing more affordable. <br />Housing Policy 56.11 -Second Units. Recognize second units as an essential part of the City’s <br />housing stock and a resource for lower income households, students and young adults, seniors, <br />extended families and small households. Second units established prior to the adoption of the 1961 <br />zoning code should be recognized as legal dwelling units and measures to legalize unregistered units <br />developed after 1961 should be explored. <br />Housing Policy 59.01 -Zoning Regulations. Ensure that the development standards, use <br />restrictions, parking requirements, and other regulations contained in the San Leandro Zoning Code <br />enable the production of housing for all income groups. Overly restrictive or redundant requirements <br />should be strongly discouraged. <br />Legal Analysis <br />The City Attorney’s Office drafted the urgency ordinance establishing the land use moratorium, and <br />the unruly gatherings ordinance. <br />Fiscal Impacts <br />Short-term rentals are subject to a fourteen percent (14%) Uniform Transient Occupancy Tax as per <br />Chapter 2-10 of the Municipal Code. A City business license and Transient Occupancy Registration <br />Certificate would also be required of anyone operating a short-term rental business. Given the low <br />number of listed properties, if the City opts to permit and regulate short term rentals, the amount of <br />tax revenue generated is projected to be relatively small and not likely to recover the full cost of <br />enforcement. <br />Related Legislative Files: <br />·Urgency Ordinance Establishing Moratorium on Non-Hosted Short Term Rentals of Residential <br />Properties (18-368) <br />·Loud and Unruly Gatherings Ordinance (18-370) <br />Attachments: <br />·Staff Report and Attachments from November 13, 2017 City Council Short Term Rentals Work <br />Session <br />PREPARED BY: <br />Andrew J.
