An act to amend Section 65915 of the Government Code, relating to housing.

AI Summary

This bill modifies California's Density Bonus Law to provide additional incentives for developing student housing that includes a higher percentage of affordable units for lower-income students. Specifically, it requires cities and counties to grant an extra density bonus if a student housing development meets existing requirements, dedicates 24% of its units to lower-income students, and includes additional affordable units for either lower-income or moderate-income students, as long as no more than 50% of the total units are restricted to moderate or lower-income students. The bill also defines "moderate-income student" and clarifies that these changes are a matter of statewide concern, applying to all cities, including charter cities.
