AB 1763 Summary

• Adds new eligibility category for 100% lower-income housing developments (allowing up to 20% moderate-income units) to receive density bonuses under California's Density Bonus Law.

• Provides an 80% density bonus for qualifying all-affordable developments, or no maximum density controls if located within one-half mile of a major transit stop; also grants 4 incentives/concessions and up to 3 additional stories (33 feet) height increase for transit-adjacent projects.

• Modifies rent requirements for 100% affordable developments to set rent at affordable levels for at least 20% of units and at low-income housing tax credit levels for remaining units, rather than maintaining strict affordability across all units.

• Eliminates minimum vehicular parking requirements (upon developer request) for special needs and supportive housing developments that are all-rental and affordable to lower-income families.

• Prohibits developments receiving waivers from maximum density controls from receiving additional waivers or reductions of development standards beyond those expressly provided in the bill.
