Newsom signs housing bills that could reduce single-family zoning in California
KTLA ^ | 09/16/2021 | Cameron Kiszla

Gov. Gavin Newsom signed three housing-related bills into law Thursday that are likely to make multi-family housing projects easier to build and could open up many single-family zones to development.

Senate Bill 8 extends until 2030 the Housing Crisis Act of 2019, which “accelerates the approval process for housing projects, curtails local governments’ ability to downzone and limits fee increases on housing applications,”

Senate Bill 9 “facilitates the process for homeowners to build a duplex or split their current residential lot,”

In practice, the bill will “require cities to approve up to four housing units on what was a single-family lot,” according to the Associated Press.

Senate Bill 10 makes it easier for local governments to rezone areas near transit centers for multifamily housing of up to 10 units per parcel.

"curtails local governments’ (IOW the people in the community's) ability"

Democrat Party hates for people to make their own decisions.

Think Blackrock, or whatever the name is of that group buying up all the property in the USA. Guaranteed they are involved in this with their Democrat Buddies.

Tucker was just talking about an official in Seattle that wants no property ownership.

Is the State going to develop his vineyard/winery for Section 8 housing?

Tucker should run a scroll with that guy’s home address, the address of the schools his children attend and both his and his wife’s work locations. Over and over again.

Looks like Californians huddled in their nice little single-family home suburban enclaves are about to get invaded with high population traffic and infrastructure degradation. If these high occupancy homes are for lower income, you can add crime and blight to that too.

This will increase the number of units. So this will reduce the pressure on housing prices in California.

“Democrat Party hates for people to make their own decisions.”

I read an article about a year ago about this. It’s Obama’s idea; he didn’t have a chance to attempt implementation.

Wake up California. The Marxists want to turn every neighborhood into a ghetto.

I was watching Nash Bridges. Houses are packed pretty close together in San Francisco.

I’ve also seen pictures of new subdivisions under construction - oversized houses on undersized lots.
