With a key vote coming on a bid to rezone Los Angeles to add 250,000 more homes, city officials released a long-awaited report on the history of exclusionary zoning.
Zoning laws in major cities originated with the Los Angeles zoning ordinances of 1904 [4] [5] and the New York City 1916 Zoning Resolution. [6] Early zoning regulations were in some cases motivated by racism and classism, particularly with regard to those mandating single-family housing.
For instance, if a city has a minimum lot size of 5,000 square feet, only eight full homes can be built on a single acre of land (1 acre = 43,560 square feet).
The bill would have affected roughly 50 percent of single-family homes in Los Angeles and 96 percent of land in San Francisco. [15] [16] A similar bill, Senate Bill 828, was introduced by Wiener to amend market-rate housing requirements for local governments and avoided much of the controversy that affected SB 827. [17]
