Governor Gavin Newsom signed SB 328 on September 29, 2026, as an urgency statute effective immediately. It amends Government Code section 54221 so the former Concord Naval Weapons Station can be disposed of as exempt surplus land for a project expected to include at least 10,000 homes, with 25% restricted to lower-income households for 55 years for rentals or 45 years for ownership, a project labor agreement and 30 days' notice to HCD.
