Examples Inclusionary Requirements Applying to Student Housing Projects?

I have been asked to research the application of inclusionary zoning requirements to student housing projects. Of particular interest are examples of municipalities that deal with conversion of existing rental units to student housing directly.

The logic for our inclusionary program rests on the finding that new residents fuel increased demand for affordable housing in San Francisco through increased demand for services. I have been asked to research if a logic exists to apply the inclusionary requirements to projects that convert existing units to student housing units. We know that a portion of students living in the new housing units will be new residents to the area, causing increased demand for services even though no new residential units are added-only the type of residential usage is changed.

More broadly, any examples of inclusionary zoning policies that deal explicitly with the creation of student residential units would be appreciated.

Thanks,
