Just make the directory below which the files are owned by user xyz and group
www.

Everything the user creates below will have the same ownerships. At least it
works that way on my machines.

And use a separate directory for all webstuff maybe with separate
mount-point for the web-files, so that this stuff is not located inside
the home-dirs. You can put a symbolic link there which points to the
appropriate directory.

/websites/          root   wheel drwxr-xr-x
          user1     user1  www   drwxr-x---
          user2     user2  www   drwxr-x---
...
