A San Francisco property owner is taking advantage of a new state law that streamlines the planning and environmental review processes for projects along some commercial and transit corridors.
The City has 60 days to decide whether the application qualifies for the streamlined approval under the new law. And after that, AB2011 allows another 90 days for The City to grant final approval. Polaris Pacific should have a decision about construction by December at the latest. AB2011 was introduced to the state legislature by Assemblymember Buffy Wicks, a representative of the East Bay. The focal point of the legislation is transforming suburban throughways, such as El Camino Real on the Peninsula. It’s meant to develop strip malls and parking lots into housing.
Developments under AB2011, in addition to streamlining, could be eligible for relaxed height and bulk requirements. Under the new legislation, areas that are currently zoned for commercial use, like office space or retail, could open up to residential development.
