| H0253 | An act relating to workforce housing zones | This bill proposes to enact housing policy that advances Vermont’s housing and climate goals, while reducing costs and growing the economy, by (1) establishing a revolving fund at the Vermont Housing Finance Agency (VHFA) that incentivizes development of low cost, climate- and labor-friendly modular housing, (2) creating a new Act 250 designation called workforce housing zones, and (3) prioritizing water and wastewater systems within the newly designated workforce housing zones. First, the VHFA shall serve as the fiscal agent for a newly created revolving fund and shall develop a plan to use bulk purchasing of homes produced through off-site construction to achieve lower construction costs for single- family and missing middle housing and develop a long-term plan for using off- site construction to achieve lower multifamily construction costs. The homes shall meet criteria for energy efficiency and affordability as determined by criteria established by the VHFA. Funds may be utilized through grants and H.253 technical assistance to existing businesses to develop or expand off-site construction capacity. Second, there is established a designation of workforce housing zones to include geographic areas within (1) six miles of the centroid of a census tract that has 7,200 or more jobs, (2) five miles of the centroid of a census tract that has between 4,999 to 7,200 jobs, and (3) three and one-half miles of the centroid of a census tract that has between 2,499 and 5,000 jobs. The workforce housing zones shall be reviewed and revised every five years using information from the U.S. Census Bureau and may be adjusted slightly to account for local circumstances within a duly adopted town plan with the concurrence of the applicable regional planning commission. The workforce housing zones shall receive the same benefits that apply to designated neighborhood development areas, except that the thresholds for applying jurisdiction under 10 V.S.A. chapter 151 shall be raised from (1) 10 to 50 units for the construction of a housing project, (2) 10 to 50 lots for the definition of a subdivision, and (3) six to 25 lots for the definition of a subdivision in a municipality that does not have duly adopted permanent zoning and subdivision bylaws. Finally, this bill proposes to prioritize funding for public water and wastewater systems in workforce housing zones from any State funding source purposed for that or similar use. The Agency of Natural Resources shall study H.253 (1) the proximity of existing water and wastewater systems to workforce housing zones that could be expanded or upgraded, (2) the barriers and feasibility to the development of public municipal water and wastewater systems within workforce housing zones, (3) the options for expanding septic capacity in workforce housing zones through innovative and alternative wastewater treatment systems, and (4) the costs and benefits of creating additional capacity within the Department of Environmental Conservation for managing the development of water and wastewater systems of a fee basis for small municipalities and regions with workforce housing zones and the development of a model for accomplishing this objective. | In Committee |

| H0082 | An act relating to establishing the Division of Planning and Evaluation and strengthening the regulatory capacity of the Green Mountain Care Board | This bill proposes to establish the Division of Planning and Evaluation at the Green Mountain Care Board. The Division would be responsible for preparing a report on the status of Vermont’s health care system that enables the public to understand health care system costs, performance, access, and quality. The Division would also be responsible for preparing a five-year statewide strategic plan for improving population health and for increasing Vermonters’ access to high-quality, affordable health care, including ensuring that Vermonters living in rural communities have appropriate access to primary care and hospital services. The Division would establish total-cost-of-care spending growth targets and recommend steps that the Green Mountain Care Board and others could take to achieve the targets while improving access to and the quality of care. The Division would also develop a proposal for achieving universal access to H.82 affordable, high-quality primary care and community-based mental health services in Vermont. The bill would direct the Green Mountain Care Board to implement, and to identify any additional regulatory authority it would need to implement, the statewide strategic plan and total-cost-of-care spending growth targets established by the Division of Planning and Evaluation. The bill would also direct the Board, in collaboration with hospitals and other interested stakeholders, to develop a standardized process for financial reporting. The bill would require the Board to create a process for promoting alignment between the statewide strategic plan and hospitals’ strategic plans and budgets. The bill would allow the Board to modify its timelines for hospital budget reviews and hospital and insurer rate-setting in order to increase alignment and efficiency. The bill would also direct the Board to evaluate alternative approaches to regulating hospital budgets, including using reference-based pricing and global hospital budgets, in order to align hospital spending with both the statewide strategic plan and the total-cost-of-care spending growth targets. The bill would add several new positions and additional resources to the Green Mountain Care Board for the Division of Planning and Evaluation, provider rate setting and expanded budget review, and financial compliance and auditing. The bill also proposes alternative funding sources for certain H.82 payments to health care providers, including population health management payments, comprehensive payment reform payments, and payments through the Blueprint for Health and Support and Services at Home (SASH) programs, that have been linked to earlier funding models and will soon expire. | In Committee |

The bill would also prohibit credit reporting agencies from reporting or maintaining information on Vermonters’ medical debt and would prohibit health care providers from reporting medical debt to credit reporting agencies. | In Committee |
