Government Code § 64503
CHAPTER 1. General Provisions
The Legislature finds and declares that providing a regional financing mechanism for affordable housing production, preservation, and tenant protections in the San Francisco Bay area, as described in this section and Section 64501, is a matter of statewide concern and is not a municipal affair as that term is used in Section 5 of Article XI of the California Constitution. Therefore, this title applies to all cities within the San Francisco Bay area, including charter cities.
