AI Summary

This bill clarifies the classification of assisted living residences in Massachusetts. It specifies that assisted living residences certified under Chapter 19D of the General Laws are not subject to the provisions of the residential landlord-tenant laws (Chapters 186 and 239), except as set forth in Section 9(a)(18) of Chapter 19D. This is intended to clarify that agreements between assisted living residences and their residents are not residential tenancy agreements, and that assisted living residences are not acting as residential or commercial landlords under the landlord-tenant laws.
