California New
Bathroom Law |
|
The state of California has a new law [Assembly
Bill No. 1732] requiring changes to the State's bathroom
policy.
|
Beginning March 1, 2017, the State require all single-user
toilet facilities in any business establishment, place of
public accommodation, or government agency to be identified
as all-gender toilet facilities.
|
All single-user toilet facilities in any business
establishment, place of public accommodation, or state or
local government agency shall be identified as all-gender
toilet facilities by signage that complies with Title 24 of
the California Code of Regulations, and designated for use
by no more than one occupant at a time or for family or
assisted use. |
“Single-user toilet facility” means a toilet facility with
no more than one water closet and one urinal with a locking
mechanism controlled by the user. |
The new law will be enforced by inspectors, building
officials, or other local officials responsible for code
enforcement.
They are authorized to inspect for compliance with these
provisions during any inspection.
