Summary

The bill changes how the Department of Housing and Community Development and local councils of governments calculate and distribute each region’s share of the state’s housing need. It requires adjustments based on the percentage of land in very‑high fire‑risk areas, mandates public hearings, detailed methodology disclosures, and limits on reasons jurisdictions can be penalized. The goal is to make housing allocations more transparent, data‑driven, and resilient to climate and emergency risks.
