Strengthening Transit-Oriented Development

SB 908 adds clarifying language and technical guidance to SB 79 (2025), California’s landmark transit-oriented housing law. The bill will make it easier for local planning departments and builders to use SB 79 to build more homes near transit by eliminating ambiguities and tightening definitions, so local jurisdictions can implement its provisions without confusion or delay.
