Abstract

Existing law, the Planning and Zoning Law, requires an action or proceeding against local zoning and planning decisions of a legislative body to be commenced and the legislative body to be served within a year of accrual of the cause of action if it meets certain requirements. Where the action or proceeding is brought in support of or to encourage or facilitate the development of housing that would increase the community's supply of affordable housing, a cause of action accrues 60 days after notice is filed or the legislative body takes a final action in response to the notice, whichever occurs first. This bill would authorize the notice to be filed any time within 5 years after a specified action pursuant to existing law. The bill would declare the intent of the Legislature that its provisions modify a specified court opinion. The bill would also provide that in that specified action or proceeding, no remedy pursuant to specified provisions of law abrogate, impair, or otherwise interfere with the full exercise of the rights and protections granted to a tentative map application or a developer, as prescribed. Existing law establishes a rebuttable presumption, in any action filed on or after January 1, 1991, taken to challenge the validity of a housing element, of the validity of a housing element or amendment if the Department of Housing and Community Development has found that the element or amendment substantially complies with specified provisions of existing law. This bill would provide that in any action brought against a city, county, or city and county to challenge the adequacy of a housing element, if a court finds that the adopted housing element or amended housing element for the current planning period substantially complies with specified provisions, the element or amendment be deemed to satisfy any condition of a state-administered housing grant program requiring a department finding of housing element compliance.
