Student Housing Crunch
New laws aim to accelerate building to address the student housing crisis.
The bills include:
- Assembly Bill 648: allows community colleges to build student housing on owned or leased land within a half-mile radius of campuses, regardless of local zoning.
- Assembly Bill 357: eases building aspects on college campuses in coastal areas.
- Assembly Bill 893: spurs private residential development around public colleges and universities.
“Students are living in overcrowded conditions. They’re living out of their cars. They’re in shelters, all while they’re just trying to make a living, advance their career, set themselves up for success,”
said Kate Rodgers, co-chair of the Student HOMES Coalition.
