Amended IN Assembly March 11, 2024 CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE 20232024 REGULAR SESSION Assembly Bill No. 2835Introduced by Assembly Member GabrielFebruary 15, 2024 An act to repeal Section 1954.093 of the Civil Code, relating to tenancy. LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGESTAB 2835, as amended, Gabriel. Motels and hotels: publicly funded shelter programs.Existing law, Chapter 645 of the Statutes of 2022, law provides that the continued occupancy of a shelter program participant in a motel or hotel does not constitute a new tenancy and is not considered a person who hires for purposes of an unlawful detainer action if the shelter program meets specified requirements. Existing law prohibits specified provisions of the California Building Standards Code from causing a motel or hotel to be designated as nontransient solely as a result of a shelter program participants occupancy in the motel or hotel beyond a 30-day period, or from being interpreted to restrict the duration of occupancy for shelter program participants. Existing law prohibits a hotel or motel from adopting specified policies or imposing charges or fees specifically for shelter program participants, and prohibits requiring those participants to check out and reregister or move out of or between rooms while actively enrolled in a shelter program for purposes of preventing occupants from establishing rights of tenancy. Existing law repeals these provisions on January 1, 2025. This bill would state the intent of the Legislature to enact legislation related to extending the sunset of Assembly Bill 1991 (Chapter 645 of the Statutes of 2022). delete the January 1, 2025, repeal date, thereby extending operation of the above-described provisions indefinitely.Digest Key Vote: MAJORITY Appropriation: NO Fiscal Committee: NOYES Local Program: NO Bill TextThe people of the State of California do enact as follows:SECTION 1.
