Governor signed SB 9, SB 489, and SB 786 to boost housing development in California. SB 9 aligns local accessory dwelling unit (ADU) laws with state law, removing illegal barriers. SB 489 improves the Permit Streamlining Act by requiring clear online application info, speeding approvals. SB 786 prioritizes certified Housing Elements over conflicting plans and expedites court trials. These laws aim to meet California's goal of 2.5 million new homes by 2031, addressing housing shortages and affordability.
