IGNITION-RESISTANT CONSTRUCTION

HB 220 prohibits property deeds, contracts, and homeowner association (HOA) bylaws from banning or unreasonably restricting ignition-resistant construction (like fire-resistant materials or landscaping) that meets industry standards. It directly affects homeowners and HOAs by making such restrictions unenforceable, while allowing HOAs to impose reasonable design standards with a 60-day review window for applications. The bill defines "fire hazard" as conditions increasing fire risk and ensures HOAs cannot deny applications without written justification. It does not override mandatory building codes but aligns with safety standards from recognized industry bodies.
