CBIA complements its legislative and legal advocacy efforts with a robust regulatory advocacy program. CBIA’s regulatory advocacy focuses on key state agencies, boards, and commissions that hold regulatory authority over residential construction and land use activities.
We recognize that California’s regulatory landscape presents significant challenges in meeting the state’s housing needs. Homebuilders across the state frequently encounter numerous state agencies with jurisdiction over environmental and natural resources. These agencies can sometimes create unnecessary delays, impose exorbitant costs, and mandate burdensome mitigation requirements on projects throughout California.
CBIA is committed to overcoming these regulatory obstacles to facilitate a more efficient and cost-effective process for residential construction, ultimately supporting the goal of increasing housing availability and affordability in the state.
