Supportive Housing Streamlined Approval (AB 2162)

A Project Application must be completed and/or attached prior to submitting this Supplemental Application. See the Project Application for instructions.

California Assembly Bill No. 2162 (AB-2162) was signed by Governor Jerry Brown on September 26, 2018 and will be effective January 1, 2019. AB-2162 applies statewide and requires that supportive housing be a use that is permitted by right in zones where multifamily and mixed-use development is permitted. AB-2162 amends Government Code Section 65583 and adds Code Section 65650 to require local entities to streamline the approval of housing projects containing a minimum amount of Supportive Housing by providing a ministerial approval process, removing the requirement for CEQA analysis and removing the requirement for Conditional Use Authorization or other similar discretionary entitlements granted by the Planning Commission.
