CA AB2162

Requires supportive housing to be a "use by right" in zones permitting multifamily and mixed uses, including nonresidential zones with multifamily uses, if developments meet specified affordability and service criteria.

Mandates supportive housing developments have 100% of units (excluding manager units) dedicated to lower-income households with public funding, plus at least 25% of units (or 12 units, whichever is greater) restricted to target population with 55-year affordability restrictions.

Requires developers to provide onsite supportive services with a minimum of 90 square feet for developments with 20 or fewer units, or 3% of nonresidential floor area for larger developments.

Prohibits local governments from imposing minimum parking requirements for supportive housing units within ½ mile of public transit stops and establishes expedited review timelines of 60 days for projects with 50 or fewer units and 120 days for larger projects.

Declares supportive housing provision a statewide concern applicable to all cities including charter cities, and does not prevent developers from seeking density bonuses or limit local authority to adopt additional supportive housing policies.
