California AB1623 aims to include student housing in regional housing needs assessments and annual reports.

California AB1623 addresses the state's housing shortage by ensuring student housing is included in regional housing needs assessments and annual reports. The bill mandates that certain types of student housing, as determined by the department, count towards a local government's share of regional housing needs. It requires local governments to report on the number of student housing units built, regardless of whether they have been issued a completed entitlement, a building permit, or a certificate of occupancy.
