'''SB 827''' (Senate Bill 827, "Transit-rich Housing Bonus") is proposed 2018 California state legislation that would '''encourage high-density housing development anywhere in the vicinity of regular transit service'''. It would grant a "transit-rich housing bonus" to residential developments in such areas, allowing exemption from certain typical zoning limitations such as maximum density or required provision of parking, and allowing up to 85 feet building height on streets 45 feet or wider within 1/4 mile of high quality transit corridors, to 45 feet on narrower streets within 1/2 mile of transit stops. It was introduced by San Francisco State Senator Scott Wiener on January 3, 2018. (Principal coauthor: Senator Skinner; Principal coauthor: Assembly Member Ting).
