SB-18 Highlights
Tribal Housing Reconstitution and Resiliency Act
The bill establishes the Tribal Housing Grant Program Trust Fund, overseen by the Department of Housing and Community Development. The fund will support housing programs for Indian families and individuals, covering housing-related services, project costs, and management. Allocations follow a designated formula, contingent on legislative appropriation, and aim to aid eligible beneficiaries in Indian areas.
SB-684 Highlights
Land use: streamlined approval processes: development projects of 10 or fewer residential units on urban lots under 5 acres
The bill proposes changes to existing laws governing subdivision and housing development. It requires local agencies to expedite the approval of parcel maps and tentative/final maps for housing projects meeting specific criteria. Housing projects with 10 or fewer units, meeting size and zoning requirements, would be streamlined without discretionary review. Objective design standards could apply, but overly restrictive standards are prohibited. The Department of Housing and Community Development would oversee compliance. Effective July 1, 2024, the bill aims to streamline housing development while acknowledging environmental considerations.
