a. The purpose of this section is to establish the standards and requirements
for inclusionary development that includes a mix of age-restricted
housing servicing both market-rate housing and housing that is affordable
to low- and moderate-income households. The affordable housing will
assist Sea Isle City in meeting its constitutional and statutory obligations
to provide a realistic opportunity for the construction of its fair
share of its region's needed low- and moderate-income housing.
b. The R-3 Age-Restricted Residential District provides opportunities
for development of age-restricted housing in compliance with the appropriate
administrative code requirements. The R-3 Age-Restricted Residential
District allows for a density of four dwelling units per 5,000-square-foot
lot, which may be developed as either 100% affordable age-restricted
housing, or as mixed-income age-restricted housing with a 20% affordable
housing set-aside.
c. Bulk standards for structures housing more than four units based
upon combined lots and a planned development shall be formulated by

number of market-rate multi-unit dwelling units provided shall not
exceed three units per 5,000 square feet of lot area.

Affordable multi-unit age-restricted rental or sale dwelling units that are provided at a minimum set-aside rate of 20% of the total number of dwelling units constructed in the development, with 13% of the affordable dwelling units to be affordable to very-low-income households, and the remaining housing unit allocation to be consistent with the City's Affordable Housing Ordinance, §
26-43, and are deed-restricted to limit the number of bedrooms to a maximum of two per dwelling unit and to prohibit the conversion of basements, dens, offices, lofts and other nonbedroom spaces and rooms into a new bedroom. The minimum number of affordable multi-unit age-restricted rental or sale dwelling units provided shall be one unit per 5,000 square feet of lot area.
