The San Francisco Board of Supervisors approved an ordinance amending the Planning Code and Zoning Map to establish the 30 Van Ness Avenue Special Use District. The district is bounded by Fell Street, Market Street, and Van Ness Avenue. The decision modifies the inclusionary housing obligations for the property through an amendment to the Agreement for Sale of Real Estate between the City and 30 Van Ness Development LLC. The ordinance ensures alignment with the General Plan and key planning policies while also affirming compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The modification aims to facilitate affordable housing and streamline development processes.
This decision establishes a new special use district, shaping the zoning regulations for a key property in San Francisco. The inclusionary housing modifications are expected to contribute to affordable housing goals, making this a significant policy shift for urban development in the area.
