General Information
The Housing Crisis Act of 2019 (SB 330 [Chapter 654, Statutes of 2019] and SB 8 [Chapter 161, Statues of 2021])
sets a temporary 10-year prohibition on reducing residential density when associated with the approval of a
"housing development project", beginning January 1, 2020 and concluding on January 1, 2030. A "housing
development project" is defined as: a residential project of one or more units; a mixed-use project with two-thirds
of the floor area designated for residential use; or a transitional or supportive housing project. In addition, existing
units that are defined as "protected".1 under the law (see below for qualifications) must be replaced with units that
have an equivalent number of bedrooms, rents affordable at the same income category as the displaced tenant(s)
(or if incomes are unknown, according to the proportion of lower income renter households in the jurisdiction), and
displaced tenants must be provided relocation benefits. Therefore, concurrent with the application of a housing
development project that involves the demolition of any residential unit(s), t~e P,roper\Y owner ~hall answer the

If any units proposed for demolition are, or within the last 5 years, occupied by a very low-or low-income
household, units are considered "protected" and require replacement. Please use the following table to
determine income category of tenants occupying units. Responsibility of acquiring required information
is that of property owner.
Income Categories Protected Unit Income Category
Non-Protected Units
Household Very Low Low Moderate or Above Size
1 Up to $47,100 $47,101-$75,300 $75,301 or Above

If incomes are unknown, assume a proportion of units are "protected" in accordance to the proportion of
lower-income re·nter households in the City. For example, for a 5-unit apartment building, assume 1 unit
was occupied by a very-low income household and 1 unit was occupied by low-income households based
on the proportions below. The HUD database can be accessed at the following link:
