AB 1573: Land use: housing elements: target population.

What AB 1573 does, verified August 25, 2026

This bill aims to amend the land use law in California to include victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, and human trafficking in the definition of the "target population" for housing element requirements. The target population is currently defined to include individuals with low incomes who have one or more disabilities, and those eligible for developmental disability services. The updated definition would expand the target population to include vulnerable individuals who require specialized housing support, ensuring that cities and counties provide adequate housing options for those in need.
