This article is being prepared. It will explain Los Angeles' Citywide Adaptive Reuse Ordinance expansion in 2026 to a rolling 15-year eligibility window (any building past its 15th year from Certificate of Occupancy), and California's AB 507 (Office to Housing Conversion Act) effective July 1, 2026 — streamlined ministerial approval and a CEQA exemption in exchange for affordability set-asides.
Primary sources (when published): LA City Planning Adaptive Reuse Ordinance page (planning.lacity.gov/project-review/adaptive-reuse) and AB 507 bill text on California Legislative Information (billTextClient for bill_id=202520260AB507) — not department or legislature homepages.
