AB 1043: Housing programs: rental housing developments: affordable rent.

  • Session Year: 2021-2022
  • House: Assembly

Version:

Existing law, the Zenovich-Moscone-Chacon Housing and Home Finance Act, prohibits affordable rent for certain rental housing developments that receive assistance on or after January 1, 1991, from exceeding a specified percentage based on the area median income adjusted for family size and whether the household is an extremely low income household, very low income household, lower income household, or moderate-income household.

This bill, for leases entered into on or after January 1, 2022, would additionally prohibit affordable rent for certain rental housing developments that receive assistance from exceeding the product of 30 percent times 15 percent of the area median income adjusted for family size appropriate for the unit if the household is an acutely low income household, as defined to mean persons and families whose incomes do not exceed 15 percent of area median income, adjusted for family size, as specified.

By revising the duties of local government officials with respect to administering various programs and requirements that require a determination of affordable rent, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.

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, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to the statutory provisions noted above.
