An act to amend Section 53572 of the Health and Safety Code, relating to housing.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

AB 2967, as introduced, Ting. Teacher Housing Act of 2016: definitions.

Existing law, the Teacher Housing Act of 2016, authorizes a school district to establish and maintain programs, as provided, that address the housing needs of teachers and school district employees who face challenges in securing affordable housing. The act defines the term “local public employees” for these purposes to include employees of a city, county, city and county, charter city, charter county, charter city and county, special district, or any combination of the above.

This bill would make a nonsubstantive change to that definition.
