The Beverly Hills City Council is set to rule on developer’s appeal to a rejected Builder’s Remedy project application at 129 Linden Drive on March 11. Builder’s Remedy allows developments with a certain number of affordable units to bypass local zoning in cities that fail to meet Sacramento’s ambitious housing demands.
The Linden Drive project—with its 19 stories, 132 market-rate units, 33 affordable units and 73 hotel rooms—far exceeds the city’s zoning limits. At issue in the appeal is whether Beverly Hills is in compliance with the state’s housing goals.
