AN ACT INCLUDING WORKFORCE HOUSING IN THE CALCULATION OF THE THRESHOLD FOR EXEMPTION FROM THE AFFORDABLE APPEALS PROCEDURE.

HB 6123 modifies a state law to include workforce housing units (regardless of any deed restrictions) in the calculation for determining if a housing development must undergo an affordable housing appeals process. Specifically, it adds workforce housing to the ten-percent threshold that currently exempts certain projects from this procedure. This change directly affects developers of housing projects who may now need to navigate the appeals process if their project includes workforce housing units. The bill does not alter the appeals process itself but adjusts which projects qualify for exemption based on the new calculation.
