This act would exempt applications filed in the town of Tiverton, from regulations for comprehensive permit projects, for low- and moderate-income housing, by prohibiting accessory dwelling units. This act would take effect upon passage.
AI Summary
This bill amends existing law concerning comprehensive permit projects for low- and moderate-income housing, specifically impacting applications filed in the town of Tiverton by prohibiting the inclusion of accessory dwelling units (ADUs) in such projects. An accessory dwelling unit is defined as a separate living space on the same property as a primary dwelling. This change means that while Tiverton can still pursue comprehensive permits for affordable housing, these projects will not be allowed to incorporate ADUs once final approval has been granted. The bill also states that it will become effective immediately upon its passage.
