On October 16, 2018 the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors instructed the Department of Regional Planning to study and prepare amendments to the County Code, Title 22 – Planning and Zoning, to control impacts caused by high-cost lenders. Regional Planning was instructed to develop a new definition and development standards for high-cost loan businesses, and require a minimum separation distance between these businesses to address overconcentration.
