PRESENTED BY:
Unlocking California's Housing Potential: The New Path to Multi-Unit Development
Presented by Nolan Gray
California is working hard to fundamentally transform residential development with groundbreaking legislation that allows more housing units on virtually any residential lot statewide. These laws will bypass traditional zoning restrictions, eliminate most impact fees, and require only streamlined ministerial review—no more discretionary approvals or lengthy public hearings.
Join industry expert, Nolan Gray, to explore how these changes will create unprecedented opportunities for developers and property owners. He'll break down the specific provisions, walk through the streamlined approval process, and discuss strategies for maximizing these new development rights. Whether you're looking to expand existing projects or enter the California market, understanding these laws is essential for capitalizing on what may be the most significant expansion of housing development rights in decades.
Key Topics:
Which lots qualify and current restrictions that no longer apply
The ministerial review process and timeline expectations
Fee exemptions and cost savings opportunities
Practical implementation strategies for developers
This webinar is essential for developers, investors, and real estate professionals ready to take advantage of California's bold step toward addressing its housing crisis.
