Bill > SB10

This bill would, notwithstanding any local restrictions, authorize a local government to adopt an ordinance to zone any parcel for up to 10 units of residential density per parcel, at a specified height, if the parcel is located in a transit-rich area or an urban infill site. The bill would prohibit a local government from adopting such an ordinance on or after January 1, 2029 and would specify that the ordinance and any related actions are not considered a "project" under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The bill would impose certain requirements on the adoption of such an ordinance, including a finding of consistency with the obligation to affirmatively further fair housing. The bill would also prohibit certain types of development projects on parcels zoned under this ordinance from being approved ministerially or by right, or from being exempt from CEQA. The bill would apply to all cities, including charter cities, as it addresses a matter of statewide concern.
