Summary
Boise's first annual zoning code tune-up makes it easier to build junior ADUs, two ADUs or tiny homes on wheels per lot, and eases bike and EV parking rules. It also reworks the affordability incentive menu, trading a higher 80% AMI affordability target for terms developers will actually use.

Impact analysis
The changed incentives trade lower per-unit affordability requirements (80% vs 60% AMI) for more units actually getting built; no direct city spending is attached.
Homeowners, small developers, renters, and multigenerational families gain more housing options and simpler permitting.
