Bill Summary

As introduced, requires multi-family facilities, buildings, and structures constructed under a voluntary attainable housing incentive program to be deed-restricted to ensure that the attainable housing continues for at least 30 years, instead of in perpetuity. - Amends TCA Title 13, Chapter 3.

AI Summary

This bill amends Tennessee state law regarding housing incentive programs by modifying the duration of deed restrictions for multi-family housing facilities. Specifically, the legislation changes existing language that previously required attainable housing to be deed-restricted "in perpetuity" (meaning forever) to now require deed restrictions for "at least thirty (30) years" instead. This change provides more flexibility for developers participating in voluntary attainable housing incentive programs by allowing them to have a time-limited commitment rather than a permanent one. The bill will take effect immediately upon becoming law, as stated in Section 2, which emphasizes that the public welfare requires its implementation. By reducing the deed restriction period from permanent to 30 years, the bill may potentially encourage more developers to participate in affordable housing programs by offering a less restrictive long-term commitment.
