No. 2821

Introduced by Assembly Member Nazarian

February 18, 2022

An act to amend Section 18937 of the Health and Safety Code, relating to building standards.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

AB 2821, as introduced, Nazarian. Building standards: emergency standards.

Existing law, the California Building Standards Law, requires all state agencies that adopt or propose adoption of any building standard to submit the building standard to the California Building Standards Commission for approval or adoption. Existing law requires the commission to act on proposed emergency standards within 30 days upon a finding of emergency, as specified.

This bill would revise the above to instead provide that the commission may act on proposed emergency standards within 30 days upon a finding of emergency.

Vote: MAJORITY Appropriation: NO Fiscal Committee: YES Local Program: NO

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:

Section 18937 of the Health and Safety Code is amended to read:
