Bill	Planning and zoning: regional housing need allocation: climate change impacts.	The Planning and Zoning Law requires each county and city to adopt a comprehensive, long-term general plan for the physical development of the county or city, and specified land outside its boundaries, that includes, among other mandatory elements, a housing element. For the 4th and subsequent revisions of the housing element, existing law requires the Department of Housing and Community Development to determine the existing and projected need for housing for each region. Existing law requires the appropriate council of governments, or the department for cities and counties without a council of governments, to adopt a final regional housing need plan that allocates a share of the regional housing need to each city, county, or city and county, as provided. Existing law requires that the final regional housing plan adopted by a council of governments, or a delegate subregion, as applicable, be based on a methodology that includes specified factors, and similarly requires that the department take into consideration specified factors in distributing regional housing need, as provided.	us/states/ca	California Legislature	20212022	AB 1445	California AB 1445 (20212022)	bill	Planning and zoning: regional housing need allocation: climate change impacts.	enacted	Levine	8	28	9	2021-02-19	2022-09-30	openstates	ocd-bill/0203aa1c-e79f-4f40-a1b3-e83d92d369a7	http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202120220AB1445	966a0f19a1cf21eaf8154c6f37da50b123dce497003b136591f4c47266495642	2026-07-01	https://data.openstates.org/daily/2026-07-01/public.pgdump	2026-07-06	reported	legislation bill us-ca
