Housing Resources <br /> <br />Draft Housing Element 4-11 <br />Table 4.7 shows the proposed minimum and maximum building height by zoning district in the <br />priority development areas of San Leandro. The maximum heights will range from 30 feet to no <br />maximum limit, similar to the City of Hayward’s maximum heights in high-density areas, which <br />range from 35 to 124 feet. Site test fits analysis conducted by the City found that height limits in <br />these zones were generally sufficient to accommodate intended development types. <br />Table 4.7 Proposed Allowable Height Amendments <br /> Residential and Mixed-Use Residential Development <br />Zoning District Minimum (feet) Current Maximum (feet) Proposed Maximum (feet)1 <br />CC None 50 50 <br />CN, NA-1, NA-2 None 50 50 <br />CR, CS None None None <br />DA-1 None /24 75 75 <br />DA-2 None /24 50 65 <br />DA-3 None 50 50 <br />DA-4 None 60-75 75 <br />DA-6 None 75 None <br />P None 30 30 <br />SA-1, SA-2, SA-3 24 50 65 <br />1 Base height limit.

Other characteristics to consider when evaluating the appropriateness of sites <br />include physical features (e.g., susceptibility to flooding, slope instability, or erosion) and location <br />(proximity to transit, job centers, and public or community services). Sites used in the inventory can <br />be a parcel or group of parcels, such as: <br /> Vacant sites zoned for residential use <br /> Vacant sites zoned for nonresidential use that allow residential development <br /> Residentially zoned sites that are capable of being developed at a higher density (nonvacant <br />sites, including underutilized sites) <br /> Sites owned or leased by a local government <br /> Sites zoned for nonresidential use that can be redeveloped for residential use and a program is <br />included to rezone the site to permit residential use
