Relating to: a study of redundancies in legal requirements for new housing construction. (FE)
SB 663 requires the Department of Administration to study overlapping or duplicate legal requirements for new housing construction - including single-family, duplex, and multi-family buildings - from federal, state, and local governments. The study must identify redundancies in these requirements and be completed within one year of the bill's effective date. The department will then submit a report with findings and legislative recommendations to the relevant state committees. This bill does not change existing laws but initiates a review to potentially streamline future housing construction processes.
