Bill > S865

This bill aims to improve municipal access to general existing housing data. It requires the Department to collect and make available in a centralized, machine-readable, and screen reader-compatible database certain data for new developments with subsidized housing units and existing developments with at least one subsidized housing unit in each municipality. This data includes the total number of units, the number of units with long-term use restrictions based on income, the term and end date of such restrictions, and the location of the development. The database must be regularly maintained and updated, with each datum updated at least annually for each municipality. The bill also repeals a subsection and amends another subsection to remove the word "new" where it appears, effective December 31, 2025.
