Housing: codes; triplexes, quadplexes, 5-plexes, or 6-plexes in certain residential structures; allow. Amends 1972 PA 230 (MCL 125.1501 - 125.1531) by adding sec. 4g.

HB 5057 requires Michigan's housing director to convene a meeting with a commission within 90 days of the bill's effective date. The commission must develop recommendations for modifying housing codes to allow triplexes, quadplexes, 5-plexes, or 6-plexes in residential areas, specifically considering water supply, fire department response times, and public safety. These recommendations would guide the director in updating rules or codes by January 1, 2027, if needed. The bill does not immediately permit multi-unit housing but establishes a process for future rule changes to potentially expand housing options in residential zones.
