How should residential build-out potential be calculated and monitored?

Alternatives

3.A Calculate build-out by zoning potential (status quo for general build-out)

3.B Calculate build-out on an ‘as built’ basis (status quo for workforce housing bonus)

Solution

Direction: Alternatives 3.A and 3.B: The Council supports using zoning potential to estimate build-out for base zoning (3.A) but also use the “as built” method for any residential units constructed using a development incentive (3.B). This is the same dual system that the Town currently uses.
