    Calculation of Owner-Occupied Dwelling Services In

    Calculation of Owner-Occupied Dwelling Services in Georgia Abstract Output of owner-occupied dwellings (OOD) is included within the production boundary according to the System of National Accounts. Different methods may be selected for measuring OOD services due to housing market development level. The paper presents estimation of services produced by OODs based on a User Cost Method, which replaced a self-assessment method in 2019 year in the National Accounts of Georgia during the general revision of time series. Key words: Owner-Occupied Dwellings, Imputed rent, User Cost Method Author: Levan Karsaulidze – Head of National Accounts Department, National Statistics Office of Georgia Introduction Imputed rents, representing services produced by owner-occupied dwellings (OOD), has always been included within the production boundary of National Account and are part of the official GDP estimates of Georgia as well. In 2019 transition to the SNA 2008 was implemented1 in the National Accounts of Georgia from the SNA 1993, accompanied with a general revision of time series. Along with other major changes related to the newly adopted methodology, user-cost method was implemented for measuring imputed rents for owner occupied houses, while self-assessment method was used until 2019 year. The paper describes a methodological background and detailed calculation steps for measuring imputed rents of OODs in Georgia, based on the user-cost method, briefly summarizes widely used approaches for estimating services of OODs and provides arguments for adopting the use-cost method for the country. Final results are presented in the last part of the paper. 1. Methodological Framework Methodology for measuring imputed rents of owner-occupied dwellings differs by country based on a rental market development level.

    6. Analysis of Constraints to Housing

    CITY OF OAKLAND HOUSING ELEMENT 2015- 2023 6. ANALYSIS OF CONSTRAINTS TO HOUSING A. GOVERNMENTAL CONSTRAINTS Governmental policies and regulations can have both positive and negative effects on the availability and affordability of housing and supportive services. This chapter of the Housing Element describes the policies and strategies that provide incentives for housing in Oakland that have resulted in significant contributions to the City’s housing stock. This chapter also analyzes City policies and regulations that could potentially constrain the City’s abilities to achieve its housing objectives. Constraints to housing can include land use controls, development standards, infrastructure requirements, residential development fees, and development approval processes, along with non-governmental constraints such as financing. A brief discussion of the City’s policy and regulatory context is presented below. Since 1998, the City of Oakland has undertaken actions to reduce the impact of local government regulations and fees on the cost and availability of housing. Beginning with the General Plan update in 1998, the City has: • increased residential densities, • created new mixed-use housing opportunities along major transportation corridors and in the downtown, • reduced open space requirements in high density residential zones in the Downtown and in the Transit Oriented Development Zone (S-15), • streamlined the environmental review process for downtown projects, • adopted a Density Bonus Ordinance, • adopted a secondary unit ordinance and streamlined the process for approval, • created new fast-track and streamlined permit processes, and • adopted Standard Conditions of Approval to, in part, streamline the CEQA review process. Land Use Policies and Regulations Discretionary land use control in Oakland is exercised by the Planning Commission and the City Council, and administered by the Planning and Building Department, Bureau of Planning.
