 CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE—
 2025–2026 REGULAR SESSION

 Assembly Bill

No. 2118

Introduced by Assembly Member Hoover

February 18, 2026

 An act to amend Sections 65912.101 and 65912.123 of the Government Code, relating to housing. 

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

AB 2118, as amended, Hoover.
 Affordable Housing and High Road Jobs Act of 2022: use by right: objective standards.

The Affordable Housing and High Road Jobs Act of 2022, until January 1, 2033, authorizes a development proponent to submit an application for a mixed-income housing development along a commercial corridor that satisfies specified site criteria, affordability criteria, and objective development standards, and deems a housing development that meets those requirements a use by right and subject to streamlined, ministerial review. Existing law prohibits the objective standards from precluding a development from being built at specified residential density required and from requiring the development to reduce unit size to meet the objective standards.

This bill would also prohibit the objective standards from prohibiting or otherwise limiting mixed-use development
 development, as defined, in a housing development project. By changing the criteria local agencies must follow for the approval of certain development projects, the bill would impose a state-mandated local program.

The Affordable Housing and High Road Jobs Act of 2022 defines various terms for purposes of the act.

This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to those definition provisions.

The bill would include findings that changes proposed by this bill address a matter of statewide concern rather than a municipal affair and, therefore, apply to all cities, including charter cities.

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 no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
