(a)The department shall post on its internet website each month a list of jurisdictions that have failed to adopt a housing element that has been found by the department to be in substantial compliance with the requirements of this article pursuant to Section 65585. The department shall, on an annual basis, by July 1, or upon request, provide the most recent version of the list to the Office of Planning and Research and any other applicable agency or department.
(b)If a jurisdiction has not previously received notice of its inclusion, the department shall notify the jurisdiction of its inclusion upon the first occurrence of this inclusion. A copy of all notifications sent to a jurisdiction shall also be submitted to the legislative body of the jurisdiction.
(c)If a jurisdiction, after the effective date of this section, is included on the list described in subdivision (a), and, on the basis of that inclusion, would be denied funding under any program that is listed pursuant to subdivision
(e)and under which the jurisdiction previously applied for funding, the department shall offer the jurisdiction the opportunity for two meetings in person or via telephone to discuss the jurisdiction’s failure to adopt a housing element that is found to be in substantial compliance with the requirements of this article pursuant to Section 65585, and shall provide the jurisdiction written findings regarding that failure. Meetings previously offered pursuant to subdivision
(k)of Section 65585 shall satisfy the requirements of this subdivision.
(d)Within 30 days of a jurisdiction both appearing on the list published pursuant to subdivision (a), and also having adopted a housing element pursuant to paragraph
(2)of subdivision
(f)of Section 65585, a jurisdiction that, on the basis of its inclusion on the list published pursuant to subdivision (a), would be denied funding under any program that is listed pursuant to subdivision
(e)and under which the jurisdiction previously applied for funding may request, in writing, that the department review de novo the jurisdiction’s last housing element adopted pursuant to paragraph
(2)of subdivision
(f)of Section 65585. Within 90 days of receipt of the request, the department shall issue written findings as to whether the housing element has been found by the department to be in substantial compliance with the requirements of this article pursuant to Section 65585. If the department’s written findings state that the jurisdiction’s housing element is not in substantial compliance with the requirements of this article pursuant to Section 65585, then the city, county, or city and county may, within 30 days of receiving those written findings, bring an action to challenge the department’s determination. Any action pursuant to this subdivision shall not impact the allocation of funds for jurisdictions not appearing on the list published pursuant to subdivision
(a)for any programs identified in subdivision (e). This subdivision shall not apply if a lawsuit has been filed against that jurisdiction for housing element compliance.
(e)On or before January 1, 2023, and annually thereafter, the department shall publish on its internet website a list of programs, if any, where eligibility for funding is contingent upon a jurisdiction having adopted a housing element that has been found by the department to be in substantial compliance with the requirements of this article pursuant to Section 65585. The list shall not include any program where eligibility for funding is contingent upon a housing element that has been found by the department to be in substantial compliance with the requirements of this article pursuant to Section 65585 on or before the effective date of this section.
(f)Subdivisions
(c)and
(d)of this section shall become operative upon the inclusion of at least one program on the list published pursuant to subdivision (e).
(g)This section shall not affect any action filed on or before the effective date of this section.
