201 New Morning Court - Housing Opportunity Overlay

The project at 201 New Morning Court in Placerville, California, involves a General Plan Amendment and zone change to establish a Housing Opportunity Overlay on a 2.36-acre undeveloped parcel, enabling the construction of up to 56 multi-family residential units at a density of 20 to 24 units per acre. At least 50 percent of these units—specifically 30 percent very low-income and 20 percent low-income households—must be designated as affordable, aligning with the City’s 2021–2029 Housing Element to increase dense, infill housing for lower-income populations. The initiative is a land use planning action rather than a federal procurement, governed by state and local regulations including the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), which requires an Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration. Environmental compliance is addressed through a series of project-specific commitments, including stormwater management (HYDRO-1), hazardous materials handling (HAZ-1), energy efficiency (AES-1), greenhouse gas reduction (GHG-1), and coordination with public utilities and infrastructure. The City of Placerville serves as the lead agency, with the Development Services Department overseeing approval and compliance. Supporting environmental documentation includes appendices on air quality, biological and cultural resources, and noise assessments, with cultural resources investigation provided separately. All construction and development must adhere to the California Building Code, CALGreen standards, water-efficient landscape regulations, stormwater rules, and local zoning ordinances, with oversight conducted on-site at the project location. No federal contract clauses, pricing data, payment terms, contracting officer roles, or procurement evaluation factors are applicable, as this is a municipal entitlement and land use approval process, not a competitively bid construction or service contract under federal acquisition regulations.
