> possibly additional cities in the Bay Area, soon. Curious to know which ones.

  It would depend on which cities actually try to meet their housing allocation - RHNA - and which try the same sort of bad faith stuff that Davis did. San Francisco is a very likely candidate and some of the richer suburbs - San Mateo, Palo Alto, Orinda - but it’s still very early in the process. (The submissions are staggered across the state; the Bay Area’s deadline is later than Yolo County’s.)

    At least part of SF is already there, and as posted elsewhere here, at least one developer is taking a crack at using the state code as intended. https://www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/How-one-S-F-housing-project-is-using-state-laws-16375684.php https://www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/How-one-S-F-housing-p...

      That's a really neat project, but it's using a different state law than the one in the article; the project there is using density bonuses, but does not have unlimited density. However, if San Francisco does not submit a valid Housing Element by the end of the year, then unlimited density could potentially be available on any lot in the city.
