More shoplifters than paying customers, rumors of chain stores on the verge of closure, and community activists working to help their neighbors navigate the challenges that may be confusing — all of that is spread out between parts of Sacramento.
Senate Bill 9 and Senate Bill 10 would allow for more units on single-family properties. Author: Lena Howland (ABC10) Updated: 6:45 PM PDT July 12, 2021
SACRAMENTO, Calif. There s a debate brewing over a couple of senate bills that could change certain zoning laws when it comes to building homes in California, making housing advocates not happy.
The two bills in question are Senate Bill 9 (SB 9) and Senate Bill 10 (SB 10).
SB 9 would preempt local zoning by allowing up to eight units on what is now a single family lot. That means lots as small as 2,400 feet could be split with two units.
Developers would not be required to pay for any infrastructure improvements to those lots as well.
