Welcoming New Members to the AMSI Team!

San Francisco's Proposed Housing Element Zoning Program San Francisco is taking steps to address its housing affordability crisis through the Housing Element Zoning Program. This initiative is part of the city's broader Housing for All initiative and aims to increase housing density, particularly along transit and commercial corridors. Key Features of the Housing Element Zoning Program The program seeks to meet the state-mandated requirement of planning for approximately 36,000 additional housing units by 2031. To achieve this, the program focuses on: Increased Density: Allowing more housing types in neighborhoods with access to economic opportunities and services. Accessibility: Ensuring new developments are well-connected to public transportation to reduce vehicle reliance and emissions. Community Considerations: Protecting communities at risk of displacement and coordinating new development with infrastructure and services. The Final Proposed Zoning Map After extensive community input, the final proposed zoning map emphasizes changes along major transit routes and commercial streets. The map includes higher heights at key intersections, additional Neighborhood Commercial parcels for increased density, and adjustments based on feedback from the community and local officials.
