Laff explained the 2003 Affordable Housing Planning and Appeal Act (AHPAA),
that Naperville was classified as "non-exempt" by the the Illinois Housing
Development Authority (IHDA), and that approximately 1,300 additional
affordable units must be provided in order to reach the 10% affordable housing
requirement. She stated that AHPPA requires submittal of an Affordable
City of Naperville Page 4 Printed on 4/17/2019
City Council Meeting Minutes April 3, 2019
Housing Plan in which the community identifies the goals that will be set to
increase the local affordable housing stock.
She further explained how affordability is defined for Naperville, the concerns
with the calcluations, that affordability is not being adjusted based on household
size or number of bedrooms, and that the AHPAA percentages issued every five
years are impacted by market factors beyond Naperville’s control.
Council discussed defining affordable and attainable housing, that the City
should meet and exceed stated housing percentages, the community is losing
modest housing stock through teardowns, the need to add more housing for
seniors and the disabled, the appropriateness of recommending a percentage
for the 5th Avenue development at this time, having an affordable component
mandate to new developers, and distributing affordable housing throughout
Naperville.
Laff also discussed the upcoming Technical Assistance Project that will be
conducted via the Metropolitan Mayor's Caucus and the RFP for a consultant to
do a full housing analysis that will be inititated in the second quarter of 2019.
She said these analyses will help with definitions, data, and housing gaps.
A motion was made by Councilman Hinterlong, seconded by Councilwoman
Gustin, to receive information regarding various housing-related issues and
initiatives. The motion carried by the following vote:
Aye: 9- Chirico, Anderson, Brodhead, Coyne, Gustin, Hinterlong, Krummen, Obarski, and
White
2. Consider the recommendation of the Housing Advisory Commission regarding the

Gary Smith, Naperville, urged Council to adopt the Housing Advisory
Commission position paper.
Jennifer Taylor, Naperville, urged Council to not mandate a percentage for the
5th Avenue development.

because the property is city owned, attractive location, direction to have
affordability be a strong concept, and the appropriateness of setting a
percentage at this time for both the development and new proposals citywide.

update Council on the fair housing summit in April, and to research other
communities with affordable housing mandates.
