Proposition 9 (California)

Proposition 9 in California, approved in 2024, allows property owners to split their land into up to four separate parcels—either for sale or development—more easily, by reducing hurdles related to planning and local approval processes. It offers streamlined procedures to encourage more efficient land use, increased housing options, and possibly higher property values. This measure aims to address housing shortages by making it simpler for owners to develop or sell portions of their land while maintaining local oversight and regulations.
