New Bills as Session Ramps Up

Here are a selection of new housing bills introduced this year. AB 2586 (Torrico) would require a 60-day notice before a foreclosure eviction and address other issues faced by tenants in foreclosed properties. The bill is sponsored by Western Center. AB 2925 (Davis) would require buyers of substandard properties to register; a similar anti-flipping bill was vetoed last fall. AB 2019 (Fuentes), sponsored by CRLA Foundation, would improve enforcement of state preservation law, which gives affordable developers an opportunity to buy and keep affordable units that are at risk of conversion to market rate. This bill would give tenants and local governments the right to fully enforce the law.
