Text — As published in the Legislative Counsel's database, tables dated October 18, 2026 (pubinfo_2025.zip)
The Legislature finds and declares that the shortage of adequate student housing is detrimental to those communities in which college and university campuses are located, causing in particular substantial upward pressure on rents, housing shortages, conversion of family housing to student use, deterioration of housing stock, and generally unfavorable housing conditions under which students must pursue their education.
It is the intent of the Legislature, in enacting this section, to encourage the growth and formation of student-run and owned nonprofit housing cooperatives. Such student cooperatives shall be eligible for the applicable policies and programs provided pursuant to this division.
