AB 2177: Planning and Zoning law: open-space zoning.

California · Assembly · 2025–2026 Regular Session · last verified February 22, 2026

What AB 2177 does, verified February 22, 2026

This bill aims to amend the government code to clarify the relationship between open-space zoning ordinances and the power to take private property for public use. The existing law requires cities and counties to adopt an open-space zoning ordinance by December 31, 1973, and prohibits them from using this ordinance to take private property without just compensation. The bill seeks to make a nonsubstantive change to this provision, ensuring that the existing law is clarified and its intent is maintained.
