This document outlines the Family Zoning Plan for San Francisco, adopted in December 2025, which updates zoning regulations to increase housing density and diversify housing types.

Key objectives include expanding housing options for families, workers, seniors, and young people, providing homeowners flexibility to add units, and ensuring support for existing residents and small businesses through tenant protections, affordable housing requirements, and incentives for neighborhood-serving facilities.
