New California legislation, signed into law by Gov. Gavin Newsom Sept. 28, will remove some restrictions on zoning requirements to make it easier for California school districts to build affordable housing for teachers and staff as soon as next year.

Under the new law, school districts can build staff housing on any property owned by the district without requesting a zoning change.
