Senate Bill 9 (also known as the California HOME Act) is a state law that applies to single-family zoned properties in urban areas. Qualifying parcels are eligible for a lot split and up to two primary homes on each lot. Cities cannot require discretionary reviews or public hearings for these actions. SB 9 projects must be evaluated ministerially, which means only objective, quantifiable standards can be imposed.
SB 9 exempts projects from CEQA requirements and doubles the expiration date of tentative parcel maps (now valid for 24 months). Public hearing requirements are not required for SB 9 projects in Coastal Zones, but all other CCA regulations still apply.
