Affordable Housing Streamlined Approval (SB 4)
Effective November 1, 2024, SF Planning will apply a $1,333 fee for new project submissions. The fee applies to SB 330 for locking in the Planning Code, SB 423 for Notice of Intent, and AB 2011 / SB 4 applications. Should the cost of staff time exceed the initial fee paid, an additional fee for time and materials may be billed upon completion of the hearing process or permit approval.
SB 4, also known as CA Government Code section 65913.16, provides a ministerial approval process for 100% affordable projects located on land that is owned by an independent institution of higher education or religious institution on or before January 1, 2024. SB 4 expires on January 1, 2036.
