This bill would permit a municipality to obtain one unit of credit against its fair share affordable housing obligation for each resident of an alternative living arrangement. The bill defines an alternative living arrangement as a structure in which residents share kitchen and plumbing facilities, central heat, and common areas. Alternative living arrangements would include, but would not be limited to: transitional facilities for the homeless, boarding homes; residential health care facilities; group homes for the developmentally disabled and mentally; and congregate living arrangements. Controls on affordability on alternative living arrangements would be required to remain in effect for at least 10 years.
