HB 572 (2025)

Create "partners in housing" for workforce housing development

Summary:

Creates the "partners in housing" program, a low-interest loan and grant program under the Housing Champions Fund to assist municipalities, counties, and developers in constructing workforce housing.  The focus is on single-family starter homes, duplexes, small apartment buildings on municipally-owned land suitable for residential development.

The House rewrote the bill. The bill still establishes a "partners in housing" program, with a focus on identifying municipal and county-owned land suitable for development and expediting the planning board review process.
