AI Summary
This bill aims to ensure safe living conditions in sober homes by requiring operators seeking certification to submit evidence that the housing has been inspected and meets state and local building codes, by-laws, and sanitary codes. Upon certification, the operators must also cause the housing to be re-inspected annually for continued compliance. Failure to remedy any violations can result in denial of certification or decertification. The Department of Public Health is tasked with promulgating rules and regulations to implement the provisions of this bill.
