California Environmental Quality Act: exemption: day care center: zoning.
Enrolled and presented to the Governor at 3 p.m.
Summary
The bill adds new sections to the Public Resources Code that remove the requirement to prepare CEQA documents for day‑care centers and family daycare homes, whether the land is zoned exclusively residential or not. It also extends similar exemptions to small rural health clinics, nonprofit food banks, and advanced‑manufacturing facilities that meet specific zoning criteria. By limiting CEQA review, the measure aims to speed development of child‑care and community services while placing the determination of exemption on local lead agencies.
