Concerning compliance with siting, development permit processes and standards, and requirements for permanent supportive housing, transitional housing, indoor emergency housing, or indoor emergency shelters.

This bill aims to streamline the process for building permanent supportive housing, transitional housing, and emergency shelters in Washington state. It prevents local governments from denying permit applications for these types of housing in residential or commercial zones within urban growth areas and requires an administrative review process. The bill also establishes a state dispute resolution service and allows the state to withhold funds from cities or counties that do not comply with these new rules.
