LA County Code Title 22.140.620 authorizes by-right ministerial approval for affordable and bridge housing including PATH Pathways to Health and Home interim sites in unincorporated areas to fast-track homeless solutions.
Title 22.140.620 of the LA County Zoning Code, the Affordable Housing Streamlining ordinance, allows bridge housing, supportive housing, and emergency interim shelters to be approved ministerially in most zones without a conditional use permit. Projects funded by Measure H, the No Place Like Home program, or Project Homekey receive expedited review by the Department of Regional Planning. PATH Pathways to Health and Home and DHS Housing for Health partner sites operate under this framework. Setback, height, and parking standards may be reduced. CEQA exemptions under Public Resources Code 21080.27 apply to qualifying motel conversions. Incorporated cities apply separate streamlining ordinances under SB 4, AB 2162, and AB 101 state law.
Operating a bridge housing facility without ministerial sign-off, ignoring building or fire code, or violating habitability standards risks closure orders, occupant displacement, and loss of state and county funding under Title 22.140.620.
