SB 262: Housing element: prohousing designations: prohousing local policies.

This bill aims to amend the housing element in the planning and zoning law to ensure that jurisdictions adopt prohousing policies. It would expand the definition of "prohousing local policies" to include policies that keep people housed, and provide additional examples of such policies. The bill would also incorporate changes to the government code proposed by another bill, but only if this bill is enacted last. As a result, jurisdictions that adopt prohousing policies would be awarded additional points or preference in the scoring of applications for state programs.
