Summary

The bill changes the state housing code so local agencies can adopt a transit‑oriented development (TOD) alternative plan. The plan must keep overall net housing capacity the same across all TOD zones, but it may cut capacity in a single zone by more than half if the city is small, has historic districts, and meets other criteria. It also sets detailed rules for density limits, exemptions, and how the plan is approved and recorded.
