Overview
This bill modifies the Density Bonus Law to clarify that cities and counties cannot require approval of transient lodging units as part of a housing development that receives a density bonus, except under specific circumstances. It also incorporates changes from SB 92, primarily related to parking requirements and the approval process for density bonuses. The bill aims to streamline the process for developers seeking density bonuses while ensuring affordable housing options, particularly for lower-income students and other vulnerable populations.
