The Planning and Zoning Law requires each county and city to adopt a comprehensive, long-term general plan that includes, among other mandatory elements, a housing element. That law requires the city or county's planning agency, after the legislative body has adopted a general plan, to submit an annual report to the legislative body, the Office of Planning and Research, and the Department of Housing and Community Development.
This bill would require the annual report to include a list of all historic designations listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the California Register of Historical Resources (California Register) , or a local register of historic places by the city or county in the past year, and the status of any housing development projects proposed for the new historic designations, as specified. By increasing the duties of local officials, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.
This bill would incorporate additional changes to Section 65400 of the Government Code proposed by AB 2667 and AB 3093 to be operative only if this bill and either or both of those bills are enacted and this bill is enacted last.
The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.
This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
