Amended IN Assembly March 27, 2017 CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE 20172018 REGULAR SESSION Assembly Bill No. 1350Introduced by Assembly Member FriedmanFebruary 17, 2017 An act to amend Section 65584.03 of the Government Code, relating to land use. add Section 65584.08 to the Government Code, relating to land use, and making an appropriation therefor.LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGESTAB 1350, as amended, Friedman. Land use: housing element update. element: regional housing need: noncompliant cities and counties: penalty.The Planning and Zoning Law requires a city or county to prepare and adopt a general plan, containing various elements, including a housing element, and requires the housing element to contain an assessment of the citys or countys housing needs and an inventory of resources and constraints relevant to the meeting of those needs. That law requires that assessment to include the citys or countys share of the regional housing need, as determined by the Department of Housing and Community Development in consultation with each council of governments, and requires a council of governments to develop a proposed methodology for distributing the existing and projected regional housing need, as specified.Existing law requires each local government to review its housing element as frequently as appropriate to evaluate specified criteria and, in some instances, according to a prescribed schedule. Existing law authorizes, at least 28 months prior to the scheduled housing element update, at least 2 or more cities and a county, or counties, to form a subregional entity to allocate the subregions existing and projected housing need among its members. Existing law, if the council of governments does not receive a notification of this formation at least 28 months prior to the update, requires the council of governments to implement specified requirements regarding the regional housing need process. Existing law requires the council of governments to determine the share of regional housing need assigned to each delegate subregion at least 25 months prior to the scheduled revision.This bill would instead authorize the formation of the subregional entity and, in the absence of notice, require the council of governments to implement the regional housing need process requirements, at least 24 months prior to the scheduled housing element update. The bill would instead require the council of governments to determine the share of regional housing need assigned to each delegate subregion at least 20 months prior to the scheduled revision. By changing the duties of the council of governments as described above, 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.This bill would require a noncompliant city or county, as defined, to pay a penalty, as provided, to the Department of Housing and Community Development. The bill would define a noncompliant city or county to mean a city or county that has not met at least 1/3 of its share of the regional housing need for low-income and very low income housing during its current housing element planning period on or before January 1, 2021. The bill would require the penalty to be deposited in the Regional Housing Needs Assessment Compliance Fund, which the bill would create, and would continuously appropriate money in the fund to the department for the distribution of grants, as specified, to compliant cities and counties, as defined. The bill would require compliant cities and counties to use the grant for specified purposes. The bill, on or after January 1, 2021, would prohibit a noncompliant city or county from collecting established fees, or imposing new fees, as a condition of approval of a development project, as specified, and from requiring the payment of building permit fees.Digest Key Vote: MAJORITY2/3 Appropriation: NOYES Fiscal Committee: YES Local Program: YESNO Bill TextThe people of the State of California do enact as follows:SECTION 1.
