Planning staff tells public SB 9 does not apply in Charter City Cerritos
Summary
During public comment, staff said recent court rulings mean Senate Bill 9 lot-split provisions do not apply to the charter City of Cerritos; staff offered to follow up with a broker who asked for clarification.
During public comment at the Oct. 1 Cerritos Planning Commission meeting, local real estate broker Mark Anthony Reese asked whether Senate Bill 9 (SB 9) lot-split rules apply in the city. Staff told the commission and the speaker that, because Cerritos is a charter city and in light of recent court rulings, SB 9 does not apply in Cerritos.
The chair and staff asked Reese for contact information so staff could follow up and provide more detail outside the planning commission meeting. Associate Planner Mary Balderrama (staff) said she would provide further information to Reese. No formal action was taken; staff said they would contact the speaker to provide details on lot-split policy and the city’s current position.
The exchange occurred during the public comment period and did not prompt a formal agenda item or vote.
