Spotlight on Legislation

AB-86 Highlights 

Statewide Homelessness Coordinator

This bill would require the Governor to appoint a Statewide Homelessness Coordinator, within the Governor’s Office, to serve as the lead person for ending homelessness in California. The bill would require the coordinator to identify a local leader in each relevant city, county, city and county, or other jurisdiction to serve as a liaison between the coordinator and that jurisdiction, oversee homelessness programs, services, data, and policies between federal, state, and local agencies, coordinate the timing of release of funds and applications for funding for housing and housing-based services impacting Californians experiencing homelessness, and, in collaboration with local leaders, provide annual recommendations to the Legislature and the Governor

SB -584 Highlights 

Laborforce Housing

This bill would enact the Laborforce Housing Financing Act of 2023, and define “laborforce housing” as housing that, among other things, is owned and managed by specified entities solely for the benefit of residents and households unable to afford market rent, and whose residents enjoy certain protections. The bill would establish, in the State Treasury, the Laborforce Housing Fund, to be continuously appropriated to the department, for the creation of laborforce housing and other specified housing projects by public entities, local housing authorities, and mission-driven nonprofit housing providers
