AB 790, as introduced, Ting. Housing and home financing.
The Zenovich-Moscone-Chacon Housing and Home Financing Act declares that housing is of vital statewide importance to the health, safety, and welfare of the residents of the state and that it is the policy of the state to provide a decent home and suitable living environment for every California family. That act provides that its provisions shall be liberally construed and shall prevail over other conflicting laws.
This bill would make a nonsubstantive change to these provisions.
