SB 9 usage in LA

Around the Corner
Last week, an LA County judge ruled SB 9, or the California HOME ACT, to be unconstitutional. SB 9 allows homeowners across the state to create up to four homes on an existing parcel, ultimately eliminating single-family-only zoning.
Since its introduction in 2022, SB 9 activity has been reported to be limited.
Luckily, we have the numbers:
City of LA received approx.148 non-ministerial ADM SB 9 urban lot split planning applications
Most significant % of these applications are located in the San Fernando Valley, in areas such as Van Nuys, Woodland Hills, Sunland-Tujunga, and NoHo
91 of the applications have received a determination of Approved, Cleared, or Review Completed
Three addresses in Culver City have applied under SB 9.
