Bill Summary

Relative to decisions of boards of appeals on applications for low and moderate income housing. Housing.

AI Summary

This bill proposes to amend Section 21 of Chapter 40B of the General Laws, a Massachusetts law that governs the development of affordable housing. Specifically, it mandates that when a board of appeals, which is a local body that reviews certain development proposals, makes a decision on an application for low and moderate income housing, it must consider the financial feasibility of the project. This means the board should evaluate whether the proposed housing development is financially viable before making its decision, adding a new consideration to their review process.
