Creating pilot program for recovery residences in Cabell County

SB 74 creates a pilot program in Cabell County for recovery residences (sober living homes) to address how landlord-tenant laws apply to these facilities. It allows immediate discharge for serious issues like drug use, violence, or safety threats, but requires standard eviction procedures for other discharges. The bill mandates prorated refunds for unused fees, return transportation for out-of-state residents, and reporting of discharge reasons to the Behavioral Health Bureau. It requires a final report by July 1, 2025, to evaluate the program’s effectiveness before deciding on continuation. The pilot applies only to Cabell County and ends after one year.
