Document Description
The San Francisco Planning Department has published an addendum to the San Francisco Housing Element 2022 Update Environmental Impact Report (FEIR). The subject of the addendum is the Family Zoning Plan,an action anticipated by the City to implement the housing element.update. The proposed rezoning program
would include the following changes:
• Establishment of a specific housing sustainability district that was anticipated in the FEIR
• Amendments to base zoning, including reclassification of lots across the rezoning area to a new R~4 height and bulk district;
• Establishment of a Residential Transit Oriented-Commercial (RTO-C) zoning district;
• Establishment of the local program;
• Reclassification of certain SFMTA properties into the Non-Contiguous SF Municipal Transportation Agency Special Use District;
• Codification of certain FEIR mitigation measures identified as being the city's responsibility;
• General Plan amendments to reflect the Family Zoning Program; and
• Amendments to the city's Local Coastal Program.
The land use density and distribution anticipated under the proposed rezoning program would be generally similar in geography and basic rezoning concepts (e.g., heights, densities, and distribution thereof) to what was evaluated in the FEIR. However, there would be some differences in the exact location and the degree of
the various height limit and density changes, such that there would be some modest shifts in projected growth in a few specific locations. Thus, the housing growth distribution assumptions under the proposed rezoning program include growth evaluated in the FEIR as well as some limited adjacent areas.
