City council agrees to place condominium development incentives on future agenda
Summary
Councilmember Garpetian secured council support to add a future discussion about incentives for condominium development—topics include permit-fee relief and fee deferral until occupancy certificates—so staff can return with analysis and specifics.
Glendale city council members voted to place a discussion of condominium development incentives on a future council agenda after Councilmember Garpetian requested the item. Garpetian said he wants staff to explore programs to encourage local developers to build condominiums rather than apartments, including potential permit-fee relief or deferring fees until certificate of occupancy.
Councilmembers indicated at least one other member supported the request and moved and seconded the placement on a future agenda; a roll-call vote recorded affirmative responses. The council did not debate specifics at length and asked staff to return with more detail at a later meeting.
Next steps: staff will schedule the item for a future council meeting and provide analysis of incentive options, potential fiscal impacts and implementation details if council agrees to pursue policy changes.
