SUBJECT: Status Report — AB 1970
SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
Receive and File Status Report.
BACKGROUND:
On January 12, 2004 the City Council concurred with a request of Councilman Antos to
sponsor proposed legislation to address exempting Seal Beach from the obligations of
meeting regional affordable housing needs. Assembly Member Harman sponsored the
appropriate legislation, AB 1970.
The bill was scheduled for consideration by the Assembly Local Government Committee
on April 21. City staff received information from the Assemblyman's office that there
was no support for the legislation by any committee members, and recommended placing •
the bill in suspension while additional efforts are made to revise the language to make the
proposed legislation more encompassing to other local jurisdictions.
Councilman Antos and staff concurred with this recommendation and the bill is now
suspended while further research and revision efforts will be ongoing.
FISCAL IMPACT: None.
RECOMMENDATION:
Receive and File Status Report.
