STATUS: Petition filed 2/13/2025

Los Angeles, CA

Under state housing element law, the City of Los Angeles was required to rezone sites to accommodate 255,432 additional units of housing by February 12, 2025. The City’s housing element rezoning commitments anticipates that the City will take nineteen rezoning actions, which it fell quite short of by the deadline. In addition, we argue that the City’s CHIP Ordinance does not constitute a “rezoning” of the City’s housing element sites.

We, alongside Californians for Homeownership, Inc., seek to compel the City to complete the rezoning it committed to in its housing element.

Not a rezoning

YIMBY Law alleges that the City of Los Angeles has failed to complete its required rezoning by the deadline.
