Description

A city-initiated zoning amendment was set for a public hearing to implement SB 79, California's law allowing more homes near transit.

Impact summary

Up to 30 dwelling units per acre and greater heights become possible near Metro stops and high-quality bus lines starting as soon as July 1 — though the city hopes to redistribute density to corridors within 6-10 months.
