This measure would, among other things, recognize the month of March 2024 as Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month.
The Planning and Zoning Law requires each county and city to adopt a comprehensive, long-term general plan for its physical development, and the development of certain lands outside its boundaries, that includes, among other mandatory elements, a housing element. Existing law deems a housing development project located on any real property owned by a local educational agency an allowable use if the project meets specified criteria, including, among other things, that the development consists of at least 10 housing units and all of the units are rented by local educational agency employees, local public employees, and general members of the public pursuant to specified procedures. Existing law requires a housing development subject to these provisions to have a recorded deed restriction that ensures, for a period of at least 55 years, that the majority of the units of the housing development are set at an affordable rent to lower income or moderate-income households, provided that at least 30% of the units are affordable to lower income households. This bill would instead require all of the units of a housing development subject to these provisions that are rented to general members of the public to be affordable to lower income households. The bill would require the housing development to have a recorded deed restriction that ensures, for a period of at least 55 years, that any unit that is rented to general members of the public is set at an affordable rent to lower income households. This bill would deem the units of a housing development subject to these provisions that are rented to specified public employees to satisfy any affordability requirement of any local inclusionary housing ordinance. By adding to the duties of local planning officials with respect to approving certain development projects, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
