RESOLUTION NO. 2010-51
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
GILROY APPROVING THE TRANSFER OF 26 UNITS FROM
THE RDO SENIOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING EXEMPTION
CATEGORY TO THE RDO AFFORDABLE HOUSING
EXEMPTION CATEGORY.
WHEREAS, the City has received an application requesting the transfer of 26 units from
the RDO Senior Affordable Housing Exemption category to the RDO Affordable Housing
Exemption category; and
WHEREAS, the City has determined that that none of the 100 units that were set aside in
the Affordable Senior Housing Exemption category in 2004 have been requested or allocated,
but that there are no units now available in the RDO Affordable Housing Exemption category;
and
WHEREAS, the City has determined that reassigning 26 units from the RDO Affordable
Senior Housing Exemption category to the RDO Affordable Housing Exemption category is
justified to provide affordable housing in the City at this time; and
WHEREAS, the City has determined that the review and approval of an application for
the transfer of 26 units from the RDO Affordable Senior Housing Exemption category to the
RDO Affordable Housing Exemption category does not confer any entitlement for residential
development and therefore is not a "project", as defined in the California Environmental Quality
Act and does not require environmental clearance; and

for their construction while still providing 74 units for potential affordable senior housing
development in the community.
