2. To consider the advisability of adopting Proposed Local Law No. 6 of 2014 amending Chapter 295 Zoning of the Code of the Village of Hastings-on-Hudson, Westchester County, New York, to add a provision for rounding numbers in relation to the set-aside requirement for affordable and workforce housing units.

Be it enacted by the Board of Trustees of the Village of Hastings-on-Hudson as follows:
(added language in bold)

SECTION 1. Section 295-112.1A(1) of the Code of the Village of Hastings-on-Hudson is hereby amended to read as follows:

§ 295-112.1. Affordable and workforce housing set-aside.
A. Set-aside requirement. Before the Planning Board may approve a site plan for a residential development containing eight or more dwelling units, whether in single-family, two-family or multifamily buildings, such site plan shall show affordable and workforce housing units as follows:

(1) Fifteen percent of all units in such development shall meet either the definition of an "affordable housing unit" or a "workforce housing unit." At least 2/3 of these units shall be affordable housing units. The remaining 1/3 may be either affordable housing units or workforce housing units. The calculation of the required number of affordable and workforce housing units shall in each case be rounded to the closest whole number, i.e. 1.1 to 1.4 units would be rounded down to 1 unit, and 1.5 to 1.9 units would be rounded up to 2 units.

SECTION 2. SEVERABILITY
If any section, subsection, clause, phrase or other portion of this Local Law is, for any reason, declared invalid, in whole or in part, by any court, agency, commission, legislative body or other authority of competent jurisdiction, such portion shall be deemed a separate, distinct and independent portion. Such declaration shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions hereof, which other portions shall continue in full force and effect.

SECTION 3. EFFECTIVE DATE
