Bill > ACR26

This Concurrent Resolution proposes a constitutional amendment that would change how affordable housing obligations are determined for municipalities. Currently, these obligations are often based on regional housing needs, meaning a specific area's needs are considered. However, this amendment would mandate that the Legislature enact laws to calculate a single, Statewide affordable housing need, meaning the total number of affordable housing units required for the entire state would be determined collectively, rather than by individual regions, and this Statewide calculation would then represent the sole constitutional requirement for affordable housing.
