Join us as we host guest speaker Ken Stahl to unpack the Builder's Remedy and where it can be applied in OC. Ken Stahl is a Professor of Law and Director of the Environmental, Land Use and Real Estate Law program at Chapman University Fowler School of Law. He is also Of Counsel at the pre-eminent real estate law firm of Miller Starr Regalia, where he specializes in land use, zoning, and local government law, including the California Environmental Quality Act, the Housing Accountability Act, the state density bonus law, accessory dwelling units, and many other areas. His practice is focused on ensuring that cities comply with state law when making land use decisions.
