The city of South San Francisco is considering increasing the residential density in the Downtown Transit Core (DTC) district. Currently, the maximum density is zoned for 100 units/acre, but a proposal would allow increased densities up to 180 units/acre, with the provision of adding community benefits. These benefits provided by the housing developer could include a range of amenities, such as public art, additional green space, or a local hire program. The proposal will be heard by the South San Francisco Planning Commision in early 2018, and you can follow the commission meetings here.
