AB 356: The Dilapidated Building Refurbishment Act

Existing law, until January 1, 2024, specifies that, except as provided, a lead agency is not required to evaluate the aesthetic effects of a project and aesthetic effects are not considered significant effects on the environment if the project involves the refurbishment, conversion, repurposing, or replacement of an existing building that meets certain requirements.
 
This bill would extend the operation of the above provision indefinitely.
