Summary
The bill forces local cities and counties to adopt updated housing elements, identify affordable‑housing sites, and lets qualifying projects skip certain design‑review steps. It also requires new affordable units to stay affordable for 55 years (rental) or 45 years (ownership), obligates owners to accept enhanced Section 8 vouchers, and rewrites the state low‑income housing tax‑credit system with new allocation limits and reporting. The goal is to boost the supply of affordable homes while protecting tenants and preserving public subsidies.
