AI Summary

This bill requires the Rhode Island Housing Authority to conduct and update its count of affordable housing stock in the town of Tiverton twice per year. The legislation amends Chapter 45-53 of the General Laws, which covers Low and Moderate Income Housing, by adding a new section that mandates these bi-annual updates. Affordable housing typically refers to residential units designed to be accessible to lower or moderate-income households, often through government subsidies, reduced rent, or other financial mechanisms. By requiring frequent updates to the housing stock count, the bill aims to provide more current and accurate information about the availability of affordable housing in Tiverton, which could help local policymakers, planners, and housing advocates better understand and address housing needs in the community. The act will take effect immediately upon its passage by the Rhode Island General Assembly.
