The idea
Let small businesses test a concept in an existing commercial space for up to 120 days—with clear health and safety rules.
01 / Why now
California has entrepreneurs. It needs access.
The cost and red tape of opening a permanent location can stop a good idea before it starts. AB 1679 creates a temporary pathway to activate eligible vacant spaces while keeping sensible safeguards in place.
