<br /> <br /> <br />4/8/26 6 <br />Development Standards Available to Transit-Oriented Housing Projects Under SB 79 <br />The table below provides a breakdown of the allowed height, dwelling units per acre, and residential Floor <br />Area Ratio (FAR) for eligible housing development projects specified by SB79 based on distance to a Tier 1 or <br />Tier 2 TOD stop. Local agencies may not require height, density, or residential FAR limits below these <br />standards, unless they implement one or more of the options included in the Local Government Options to <br />Modify section below. Local agencies may still enforce local standards that do not, alone or in concert, <br />prevent a project from achieving the applicable SB 79 development standards, unless one or more options to <br />modify SB 79 has been implemented. <br />Key terms that determine whether a transit stop qualifies as Tier 1 or Tier 2 stop are included in Key <br />Definitions section below. For example, BART and Caltrain stations are Tier 1 stops, and SF Muni Metro, V.T.A. <br />light rail, and A.C. Transit Tempo stations are Tier 2 stops. Distance to a TOD stop must be measured in a <br />straight line from the nearest edge of the parcel containing the project to a pedestrian access point for the <br />TOD stop. (Section 65912.157(b).) “Pedestrian access point” is not a defined term. <br /> <br />8.A. - Page 24 of 97 <br />242
