More detail
Land values used to set or change rent would exclude housing density bonuses, related incentives, and waived building rules unless the added housing rights are approved and secured. This applies when setting or changing rent under an existing lease for land with an operating hotel or motel. It covers bonuses, incentives, and waivers under California's housing density bonus law. The added housing rights must be legally granted and secured. All required permits and land use approvals that officials must decide on must have been issued. The rules for getting a housing density bonus stay the same. The added housing rights must be approved and secured as of the date the land is valued.
