RESOLUTION NO. 84-24
RESOLUTION OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GILROY ADOPTING NUMERICAL
LIMITS FOR RESIDENTIAL DWELLING UNITS TO BE ISSUED BUILDING PERMITS
FOR EACH OF THE YEARS 1985, 1986 and 1987.
WHEREAS, pursuant to the City of Gilroy Residential
Development Ordinance, once each year, the City Council of the
City of Gilroy shall determine the maximum number of dwelling
units to be issued building permits; and
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Gilroy
desires to encourage a rate of growth which will not exceed
the City's ability to provide adequate and efficient public
services of the ability of the local economy to support such
growth, the Council desires to maintain and improve the quality
of the environment and preserve the City's natural setting,
desires to provide and maintain a balanced community with
adequate housing to meet the needs of local employment and resi-
dents, and desires to provide and maintain a sound economic base
for the City; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 5 of the City of Gilroy
Residential Development Ordinance, the City Council of the
City of Gilroy has fixed the 2nd day of April, 1984, at the
hour of 8:00 o'clock p.m. in the Council Chambers in the City
Hall at 7351 Rosanna Street, Gilroy, California as the time and
place for considering and adopting the said Numerical Limits
for each of the years 1985, 1986 and 1987, and notice of
said hearing has been given in acco~dance with said Ordinance,
and a public hearing has now been held upon the said Numerical
Limits. at the time anc place fixed in the said notice, before

the Council. and the Council having duly considered studies
and testimony relevant to the residential development program,
and having determined that the Numerical Limits should be
set with the following findings:
1. The City's ability to provide additional
sewage disposal services is severely impaired.
A sewer hookup moratorium has been imposed on
the City by state agencies, and the timing of
the resolution of this problem is uncertain.
2. When the 1986, 1987, and 1988 numerical limits
are considered in April 1985, the Council will
have a much greater understanding of the City's
ability to provide sewage disposal services.
The 1986 and 1987 numerical limits can be
increased at that time.
3. A large number of previously-committed build-out
assignments are still pending, with some degree
of uncertainty as to the timing of build-outs.
Projects which have already been approved and
which have demonstrated a desire and capability
to build within approved build-out periods
should receive priority for remaining sewage
capacity.
4. The recommended final numerical limit for 1985 allows
Gilroy to absorb its fair share of the region's
housing growth as adopted in Appendix G of the
General Plan. If the problems with the sewage
treatment plant are resolved within the next year,
the City Council can then increase the 1986 and
1987 numerical limits to provide for Gilroy
minimum fair share allocation (375 units/year).
5. A number of additional personnel and equipment
will be required to meet the demands of increased
growth. Eliminating the 1984 competition will
allow the City time to meet the needs for services
already required by previously approv~d,;proj ects.
6. Since the annual competition involves the
expenditure funds and fees by the applicants and
administrative costs by the City, a competition
for a small number of units in 1985 is not warranted.
NOW. THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council
of the City of Gilroy that in accord with the City of Gilroy
