In short, Governor Newsom has signed SB 1116, building on the Starter Home Revitalization Act and expanding the framework intended to make it easier to develop smaller, for-sale housing projects.
The legislation addresses how qualifying projects are planned and processed, with changes affecting development standards, subdivisions and local implementation.
For developers and property owners, that may also mean taking another look at sites and projects that have already been evaluated. Changes to state housing law can create a different path forward for a project that previously faced development or entitlement constraints.
If you have a current project, a site you’re evaluating, or even a past residential concept that may warrant another look, our team can help assess how SB 1116 may apply. Connect with our team. https://epdsolutions.com/contact/
