The Livermore City Council will hold a public hearing on June 8 to consider Shea Homes' request to replace 25 moderate-income affordable units with in-lieu fees at the Aura and Serenity developments. - Shea Homes cites market difficulties selling moderate-income units.
- The fees would fund deeply affordable housing for lower-income and special needs populations. - The Planning Commission recommended approval by a 4-1 vote on May 5.
- The council meeting also covers annexation, wine district renewal, and Pride Month declaration. The proposal would reduce on-site affordable units but provide flexible funding for deeper affordability.
