>Newsom’s sign-off on [Senate Bill 79](https://calmatters.digitaldemocracy.org/bills/ca_202520260sb79) means that apartment developers will soon be able to pack more homes into neighborhoods within half a mile of major rail, subway, and bus rapid transit stops, overriding local zoning restrictions and any possible objections of surrounding neighbors. Buildings immediately surrounding these transit hubs will be entitled to max out as high as nine stories, with those farther out topping out at roughly four.
