Mast prominently, housing element law now requires the <br /> identification of a zone(s) where emergency shelters are perrrtitted without a conditional use <br /> permit or other dESCretionary action. Ta address this requirement, a local go�ernrrtent may <br /> amend an existing zoning district, establish a new zoning district or establish an ove�lay zone <br /> #or existing zaning districts. For example, some communities may amend one or more <br /> existing commercial zanir�g districts to aElow emergency shelters without discretionary <br /> approval. The zane(s} must <br /> provide sufficient <br /> oppart�nities for new <br /> emergency shelters in the " � � ` ' -, <br /> planning period to meet the <br /> need identified in the <br /> analys�s and must in any 5 ,,--- '`� ., <br /> case accommodate at least � Y - :.; �,- .'--� ` _—_ � <br /> one year-roun� emergency �`';:_ ;=r " ;;---=�i . _ ,: -,_ `� � <br /> r � � ��.�t <br /> shelfer (see more detailed �. �� � - � '�'.� -� <br /> discussion below . °:� 4. , � � � <br /> ) �' �.;;�.� � - - <br /> Wh�n id�ntifying a zone or �=���' _ - <br /> ana[yzing an existing zone _-. - : i �':'�, `- � <br /> for emergeney shelters, f�12 Clover€ield Services Center—Emergency Shelter by OPCC in Sania Monica,CA <br /> Photo courtesy of OPCG rn 5anfa Monica <br /> element should address the <br /> compatibifity and sui�ability ofi the zon�.
