Overview
This bill establishes specific requirements for local agencies considering the creation of ‘critical housing infrastructure districts.’ It prohibits a local legislative body from abandoning the establishment of such a district or refusing to levy special taxes or incur bonded debt unless they make findings demonstrating that doing so would negatively impact the public interest and would no longer allow for affordable housing. The bill also clarifies that these provisions apply to all cities, including charter cities, and addresses a statewide concern regarding housing production.
