California · Assembly · 2025–2026 Regular Session · last verified December 7, 2025

What AB 1308 does, verified December 7, 2025

This bill aims to improve housing construction and enforcement in California. It requires building departments to inspect permitted work within 10 business days of receiving a notice of completion for specified new residential constructions and residential additions. This ensures compliance with state housing standards and local ordinances. The bill also revises the definition of "disapproving a housing development project" to include failure to inspect permitted work, making it a violation of the Housing Accountability Act. Additionally, the bill corrects cross-references in the act and clarifies reimbursement requirements.
