LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


SB 1162, Pan. Capitol area planning: height limits.
Existing law provides that the Capitol Area Plan is the official state master plan for development in the central city of the City of Sacramento. The Capitol View Protection Act requires specified height and setback requirements in specified areas surrounding Capitol Park. The act, among other things, requires a height limit of 120 feet for the blocks between L Street on the north, 17th Street on the east, N Street on the south, and 16th Street on the west.
This bill, instead, would designate Matsui Alley as the southern boundary of that area with the height limit of 120 feet.
Vote: MAJORITY   Appropriation: NO   Fiscal Committee: YES   Local Program: NO  

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:
