SB1145 exempts certain projects on surplus land from further environmental review if they meet specific criteria.

SB1145 establishes that projects within the Concord Community Reuse Project area, which align with the land use types and locations in the approved Final Environmental Impact Report, are presumed to satisfy environmental review requirements. Projects must not expand the geographic boundaries of the plan area, increase residential units or commercial space by more than 25%, or introduce new land use types or locations. The bill also mandates that at least 25% of residential units be affordable to lower-income households for 45 years.
