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”0F
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), the property owner shall answer the
questions below for Housing Crisis Act compliance.
