California AB1815 amends building standards and local requirements for factory-built housing.

California AB1815 amends the Vehicle Code and Health and Safety Code to redefine "factory-built housing" and establish standards for its construction and inspection. It reserves local jurisdiction over use zones, snow load, wind pressure, fire zones, setbacks, and architectural requirements. The bill prohibits new uses of land restricted by certain sections unless approved by the department. It also mandates that factory-built housing must meet California Building Standards Code or local building requirements. Local agencies can modify these requirements if necessary for health and safety.
