REGULAR BUSINESS ITEM 11
11. SENATE BILL 9 AND SENATE BILL 10 OVERVIEW
Deputy City Attorney Michael Daudt provided a PowerPoint presentation.
The City Attorney's Office will provide a presentation that summarizes the key bill
provisions. Senate Bill (SB) 9 creates opportunities for greater infill housing density by
requiring cities to ministerially approve certain housing development projects containing
up to two (2) residential units on single-family zoned parcels, without discretionary review
or a hearing. SB 10 creates a voluntary process for cities to access a streamlined zoning
process for new multi-unit housing. The SB 10 bill authorizes cities to adopt an ordinance
increasing density to allow up to ten (10) dwelling units on any parcel, at a height
specified in the ordinance if the parcel is in a transit-rich area or an urban infill site as
defined.
In January/February, staff will bring forward a Draft Ordinance for the implementation of
SB 9 before the Planning Commission and then to the City Council for consideration and
adoption. The Draft Ordinance would include provisions and development standards to
ensure additional housing units will be built in an orderly manner.
With respect to SB 10, no action is proposed in the near future. However, staff will
continue to monitor and evaluate SB 10 for any potential impacts and/or opportunities.
