AI Summary
This bill aims to protect elder housing by allowing cities and towns to freeze the rate and valuation of taxes on real income for people of a certain age or with permanent disabilities, provided their income and assets do not exceed certain thresholds. The bill also prohibits landlords from recovering possession of leased units in residential buildings with six or more units from tenants aged 75 or older, except under specific circumstances, such as non-payment of rent or nuisance violations. The bill provides tenants with legal recourse if a landlord attempts to recover possession in violation of the law.
