Seeking Applications For
Traffic Impact Mitigation Fee Offset Program For Affordable Housing Units
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that El Dorado County is seeking applications from qualified residential builders who are constructing subdivisions of five
or more units, where at least 20 percent of the units will be affordable to
very-low-, low-, or moderate-income households, are eligible to apply for TIM
fee offsets based on the percentage of units designated affordable. Only the
income-restricted units are eligible for a TIM fee offset. Affordable units must be located in the
unincorporated areas of El Dorado County to be eligible under specific
guidelines of the Traffic Impact Mitigation (TIM) Fee Offset Program. The Traffic Impact Fee Program includes a provision to set aside $1 million of federal and state transportation revenues annually for a period of 20 years to be
used to offset TIM fees in the development of affordable housing. Applications from homeowners building a secondary dwelling are accepted year round. The TIM Fee Offset Program allows for a reduction of TIM fees and is not a cash subsidy.
Applications will be accepted July 1-15, 2016.
