	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 1144, as introduced, Cedillo. Employee housing.
   The Employee Housing Law requires that buildings used for human
habitation, and buildings accessory thereto, comply with specified
state bulding standards, relating to employee housing.
Notwithstanding a provision of existing law, if a local ordinance
applies, the buildings are required to comply with the construction
and erection provisions of the ordinance.
   This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes to these
provisions of law.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no.
State-mandated local program: no.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  SECTION 1.  Section 17001 of the Health and Safety Code is amended

   17001.  Buildings used for human habitation, and buildings
accessory thereto, within employee housing shall comply with the
building standards published in the State Building Standards Code
relating to employee housing and with the other regulations adopted
pursuant to this part, unless a local ordinance prescribing minimum
standards adopted in accordance with Sections 17958.5 and 17958.7
which is equal to  such   these 
regulations is applicable. Notwithstanding  the provisions of
 Section 17050, if  such  a local
ordinance is applicable to buildings used for human habitation, and
