AN ACT ESTABLISHING A WORKING GROUP TO DEVELOP A UNIFORM STATUTORY DEFINITION OF "AFFORDABLE HOUSING".

HB 5583 establishes a working group to create a single, uniform legal definition of "affordable housing" that covers all housing types. The group will develop this definition for use across state housing programs and policies. This bill directly affects state agencies, local governments, and housing providers who rely on consistent definitions for program eligibility and funding. It does not change housing policies or funding levels but aims to standardize terminology to improve implementation. (Procedural bill; summary limited to 3 sentences as requested.)
