'''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 or within one block of a major transit stop, 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).

"a transit-rich housing project shall receive a transit-rich housing bonus which shall exempt the project from all of the following:
 
 
(1) Maximum controls on residential density or floor area ratio.
 
(2) Minimum automobile parking requirements.
 
(3) Any design standard that restricts the applicant’s ability to construct the maximum number of units consistent with any applicable building code."
