Summary

The bill amends the Public Resources Code so that a local government in the coastal zone can restrict or ban short‑term rentals that are not owner‑occupied, and the California Coastal Commission must approve the permit or program amendment if the locality shows significant housing needs and the commission finds a reasonable balance with public beach access. It targets short‑term rental owners, travelers, and coastal residents by giving localities a tool to address housing affordability while protecting public access.
