In December 2001, as part of its comprehensive and ongoing housing and community development efforts, the Chino City Council implemented the Infill Housing Development Program. The goal of the program is to eliminate the destabilizing and blighting influence that vacant/abandoned parcels are having on the downtown Chino area by encouraging homebuilders and landowners to construct high quality single-family homes compatible with the character of the surrounding neighborhood.
The Chino Infill Housing Development Program encourages new infill development by mitigating the unique obstacles and risks associated with such development. This is accomplished through the provision of financial incentives, when warranted, to developers or landowners to close the “feasibility gap” that exists on many residential infill development projects. The “feasibility gap” is defined as the difference between the total cost of developing the infill parcel, including a market-based return to the developer, and the total revenues anticipated from the sale of the final product.
If you are an experienced residential infill developer or the owner of an undeveloped or underdeveloped parcel located in the downtown Chino area, and you would like to develop high quality single-family homes, please contact Chris Corbin at (909) 464-8311 for additional information on the Infill Housing Development Program.
