Napa县监督委员会在星期二批准了新的经济适用住房影响费用,自1月16日起增加了非合并地区大型房屋和商业建筑的费用。 Napa County’s Board of Supervisors approved new affordable housing impact fees on Tuesday, increasing charges for large homes and commercial buildings in unincorporated areas, effective January 16. 超过2 500平方英尺的家庭每平方英尺的收费从43至86美元不等,4 000平方英尺家庭的收费可能达到344 000美元,较小的家庭在2 500平方英尺以下可以免收。 Fees will range from $43 to $86 per square foot for homes over 2,500 square feet, potentially reaching $344,000 for a 4,000-square-foot home, with smaller homes under 2,500 square feet exempt. 分期支付的费用旨在为该县五个城市的经济适用住房筹集资金,因为大多数新住房都是在那里建造的。 The phased-in fees aim to generate funds for affordable housing in the county’s five cities, where most new housing is built. 尽管两名监督员表示担心经济影响和公共外联不足,但两名监督员表示反对,3-2票仍获得通过。 The 3-2 vote passed despite opposition from two supervisors who cited concerns over economic impacts and insufficient public outreach. 该措施还鼓励附属住宅单元,并旨在限制农田上的大型住宅。 The measure also encourages accessory dwelling units and aims to limit large homes on farmland.
