By Ms. Comerford, a petition (accompanied by bill, Senate, No. 958) of Joanne M. Comerford for legislation to promote geographic equity in state-funded housing development. Housing.
This bill (H 4694) amends Chapter 40A of Massachusetts law to explicitly allow housing authorities to develop affordable or public housing, expanding eligibility beyond current entities like corporations. It directly affects municipal housing authorities and developers working with them, enabling them to create new affordable housing projects under existing legal frameworks. The key change adds housing authorities to the list of entities permitted to pursue affordable housing development under Chapter 40A. This is a technical update to existing law, not a new funding program or major policy shift.
By Representative Blais of Deerfield, a petition (accompanied by bill, House, No. 1471) of Natalie M. Blais, Mindy Domb and Joanne M. Comerford relative to geographic equity in state-funded housing development. Housing.
