AN ACT ESTABLISHING A PROGRAM TO ASSIST MUNICIPALITIES IN DEVELOPING PREAPPROVED BUILDING PLANS.
HB 7032 establishes a program requiring the Commissioner of Housing to create and administer model building plans for residential dwellings by July 1, 2026. Municipalities can adopt these preapproved plans - posted online by the Department of Housing - into their zoning or subdivision regulations. The bill directly affects local governments by providing standardized, streamlined options for residential construction approvals. It aims to simplify the building permit process for municipalities and developers through pre-vetted design templates.
