Housing (Building Codes)

Requires housing affordability impact notes in relation to rules with the purpose or effect to increase or decrease the cost of constructing, purchasing, owning or selling a single family residence or a multi-unit housing development, either directly or indirectly.

This bill creates a new system for residents to submit and track housing complaints online or by phone about unsafe or unsanitary conditions that violate housing laws. It requires the housing department to publish complaint details - including location, issue type, and status - on its website, making this information publicly accessible. Starting one year after the law takes effect, the department must also release annual reports summarizing all complaints from the previous year. The policy aims to increase transparency about housing conditions and allow residents to monitor their cases.
