MODERATE
This bill update changes the legislative version from the original Senate Bill to the Senate Majority Amendment version, updating metadata like dates and template numbers. Substantively, it modifies the problem statement from an 'affordable housing crisis' to a 'shortage,' clarifies that zoning powers apply to all counties except those with specific forest and water reserve zones, and adds a new exception allowing inclusionary zoning requirements to be imposed on housing sold or rented in perpetuity to state residents who do not own other property.
Scope change
The bill's applicability was narrowed by adding an exception for housing offered exclusively to state residents who are owner-occupants or renters without other real property, while also clarifying that county zoning powers are subject to specific forest and water reserve zone restrictions.
DEFINITION
Changed the problem description from an 'affordable housing crisis' to an 'affordable housing shortage'.
REQUIREMENT
Updated the reference for forest and water reserve zones from a placeholder to the specific section 46-4.8.
Modified the double-dwelling allowance to explicitly reference the new section 46-4.8 exception.
ELIGIBILITY
Added a new exception allowing inclusionary zoning requirements for housing sold or rented in perpetuity to state residents who are owner-occupants or renters and do not own other real property.
