CA AB752

Daycare centers colocated with multifamily housing (5+ units) must be treated as residential use of property and approved "by right" without requiring conditional use permits or other discretionary local government approvals

Local jurisdictions are prohibited from imposing business license fees, taxes, or charges for operating a daycare center colocated with multifamily housing

Local governments may still apply building height, setback, lot dimension, health and safety, and nuisance abatement regulations to colocated daycare centers, but only if those rules are identical to what applies to the multifamily housing itself

Daycare centers must still comply with California Building Standards Code, Fire Code, and all state licensing requirements

The law applies to all California cities, including charter cities, as a matter of statewide concern
