Housing Supply Frameworks Act
This bill requires the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to develop guidelines for states and local governments to reform zoning laws that limit housing supply. The guidelines would recommend specific changes like eliminating parking minimums, allowing more housing types (such as duplexes and accessory units), and streamlining approval processes for new projects. It directly affects state and local governments, housing developers, and communities facing housing shortages - addressing a 3.85 million home shortfall cited in the bill. HUD must report to Congress on which states and localities adopt these reforms and their impact on building permits.
