Bill > AB2252

This bill expresses the California Legislature's intent to pass a law that would permit housing buildings with four or more stories to have only one stairwell for both entering and exiting the building. Currently, existing law requires the State Fire Marshal to study and report on standards for single-exit, single-stairway apartment buildings that are taller than three stories, with a deadline of January 1, 2026, for this report. This proposed legislation aims to create an exception to potentially stricter existing building codes by allowing for a single stair entry and exit in taller residential structures.
