-- VOTE SCHEDULED WEDNESDAY JUNE 23 --
ACTION ALERT - BizFed OPPOSES SB 12 (McGuire) that will further exacerbate the current housing crisis without achieving the purpose of protecting the public from wildfires.
Next week, the Assembly Local Government Committee will hear and discuss SB 12 (McGuire) beginning at 1:30pm.
Send in your letter of OPPOSITION below in less than a minute!
Testimony information to be provided next week.
Background:
Over the last several years, California and its local jurisdictions have incorporated the most advanced and protective fire standards and technologies into new developments. Homes built under California’s current Wildland-Urban Interface Code, Fire Code and Building Code standards and Title 14 fire regulations have a proven track record of successfully withstanding fire events.
Despite the success of this existing regime for new development, SB 12 (McGuire) seeks to impose a new regulatory framework that will place duplicative procedures on development that could result in a number of unintended consequences, including the stifling of the creation of critically needed housing stock.
