Engineering for SB 9 Projects

Senate Bill 9 (SB 9) is a California law designed to increase housing density by allowing homeowners in single-family zones to split their lots and create up to two primary residential units on each parcel. This effectively enables up to four homes where previously only one was allowed, without discretionary review or public hearings.
