CA SB92

Limits commercial floor area ratio in density bonus projects to no more than 2.5 times the property's allowed base zone commercial floor area ratio when granting concessions or incentives, with an exemption for projects that submitted applications before January 1, 2026

Clarifies that local governments are not required to approve, grant concessions for, or waive development standards for hotels, motels, bed and breakfast inns, or other transient lodging as part of density bonus housing developments

Exempts residential hotels (as defined in Health and Safety Code Section 50519) from the transient lodging restriction, allowing them to still qualify for density bonus benefits

Permits residents to use or market their units as short-term lodging after receiving a certificate of occupancy, provided it complies with local law, without affecting the development's density bonus eligibility
