CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE— 2017–2018 REGULAR SESSION

Assembly Bill

No. 2263

Introduced by Assembly Member Friedman

An act to add Section 18962 to the Health and Safety Code, relating to land use.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

AB 2263, as amended, Friedman. ~~State~~ Qualified historical ~~buildings:~~ structures: parking spaces.

The State Historical Building Code provides for alternative regulations and standards for the rehabilitation, preservation, restoration, or relocation of qualified historical buildings or structures, and requires all state agencies and local authorities to administer and enforce that code with respect to historical buildings or structures under their respective jurisdictions. Those alternative building standards, enacted by regulations adopted by the State Historical Building Safety ~~Board,~~ Board and specified other state agencies, are required to be applied by every city, county, and local agency.

This bill, for building permit requests received on or after January 1, 2019, for the conversion of a historical structure for residential or mixed use purposes, would prohibit a local ordinance from imposing parking standards that exceed the parking standards that applied at the time the historical building was originally constructed. By imposing new duties on local agencies, the 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.
This bill would prohibit a local agency from imposing parking standards on a qualified historical structure, or a structure that is eligible to be listed as a qualified historical structure, that exceed the parking standards required by rules and regulations adopted pursuant to the State Historical Building Code.
