Directive Sponsor State Legislation AB 2164 Lee ADA
State law currently requires local governments to collect a $4.00 fee for business licenses and business permit renewals to fund programs expanding physical accessibility to businesses for individuals with disabilities. Under current state law, this fee drops to $1.00 on or after January 1, 2024. This projected decrease in available funds—coupled with inflationary pressures and rising costs—threatens cities’ and counties’ abilities to stretch limited resources and continue successful accessibility compliance programs. This bill would (1) remove the January 1, 2024 fee sunset, enabling local governments to collect the $4.00 fee indefinitely; and (2) clarify local jurisdictions’ ability to use thee funds for accessibility-related grants for small businesses.Senate Appropriations

Shelters
The Planning and Zoning Law requires the legislative body of each county and city to adopt a comprehensive, long-term general plan for the physical development of the county or city that includes a housing element. Existing law requires that the housing element identify adequate sites for housing, including rental housing, factory-built housing, mobilehomes, and emergency shelters, and make adequate provision for the existing and projected needs of all economic segments of a community. Existing law also requires that the housing element include an analysis of potential and actual governmental constraints upon the maintenance, improvement, or development of housing for all income levels.This bill would revise the requirements of the housing element, as described above, in connection with zoning designations that allow residential use, including mixed use, where emergency shelters are allowed as a permitted use without a conditional use or other discretionary permit. The bill would prohibit a city or county from establishing overlay districts to comply with these provisions. The bill would delete language regarding emergency shelter standards structured in relation to residential and commercial developments and instead require that emergency shelters only be subject to specified written, objective standards. The bill would specify that emergency shelters for purposes of these provisions include other interim intervention, including, but not limited to, navigation centers, bridge housing, and respite or recuperative care.
